8 Dick gave her several rapid blows
With his knife, She groaned almost as
human being would have done, and
fell upon her side, But she recovered
in an instant, and striking Dick, she
threw him to the earth. But the father
had seized his beloved daughter, aud
throwing her little apart, she was now
out of danger.
Not so with himself.
He was now stretched fat upon his
back, and both the paws of the beast
were upon his breast, and he could feel
the sharp claws entering his flesh. The
two great, CLASSY eyes glared into his
own, the terrible growl rang in his ears,
Ishe jaws were extended, the long white
iseeth glistened, and the blood-red tongue
was ready to lap up his blood. He
struggled, but could not move. A mo.
ment more, and all would be over for
him forever, now the death-grip was
fixed upon him.
And, to add to his agony, he had seen
bis child spring off and run toward the
edge of the cliff 1t would be dashed
to pieces in falling, even as its brother
had been.
I But could this be misfortune, since
the father must die2 Would it not be
better for her to join her loved ones in
another world than to remain in this
cold one, alone2
Just at that instant, however, there
came the report of rifle. The bear re.
laxed her hold and fell heavily upon the
body Of Dick. He rolled the animal
away and sprang to his feet. A friend
had arrived in time, and not an instant
too soon. He was holding Eva in his
arms. She was not hurt.
The father could not help shedding
tears over his rescued darling, for never
before had she appeared half so dear to
him. But he resolved not to expose hel
to any further danger Of the kind, and
so he took an almost immediate depar-
ture for the home he had selected in the
Golden State.

MEMORY BELLS,

Oh, don't you remember the orchard, Maud,
And the gnarly old tree by thegate; a.
And the apples that came when the blooms
were gone, g.
Which the worms and the children ate?
Oh, don't remember how it struck the worms
dear Maud,
But mind Just how awfully felt,
When they carried me home In bow-knot
Maud,
With peck Of apples under my belt.
Oh, don't you remember the meadow-lot, Maud,
And the brooklet that rippled from the
springp r 5
Where the buttercups CLEANED in the clover,
Maud, ell'A!
As we listened to the meadow-lark sing.
Oh, I've strolled down there in my manhoods
days,
But I got up and busted when found
That I'd sat right down where some humble
bees, Maud,
Were just coming out of the ground.
Oh, don't you remember the old hillside, Maud
Where we hunted for the brown thrush's
eggP
And the little red ants by the million, Maud,
Used to crawl up a fellows trowser's leg2
I could talk of the happy old times, dear Maud,
From now till the middle of November,
But man Of my age can forget, you bet,
A blamed sight more than he'll remember.

Educated Farmers.

There are many farmers who are
successful and highly respected that
possess little education: but they are
careful, Observing and have good,

education and general reading, they
even could accomplish the same re-
salts, and with more ease and pleas

And there is no young farmer
