The Trappers' Cabin. It's a smart fellow that knows what he can't do .-- Sayings of Si Sylvanne. I suppose every trapper that ever lived, on first building a cabin, said, "Oh, any little thing will do, so long as it has a roof and is big enough to lie down in." And every trapper has realized before spring that he made a sad mistake in not having it big enough to live in and store goods in.
Quonab and Rolf were new at the business, and made the usual mistake.
They planned their cabin far too small; 10 X 12 ft., instead of 12 X 20 ft.
they made it, and 6-ft.
