the tree of the saddle and tied the stir
rups loosely together underneath, so
that they should not fly toward his
head in the earthquake upheaval which
he anticipated.
All being in readiness, Bob tucked his
trousers into his boots, fastened on a
spur, pulled his hat down hard, dashed
his handkerchief firmly about his neck
and strapped his belt up couple of
holes. Leading the lamb-like pony to
a wide. sloping space from which fair
and square start could be made, he Sc
cured his rope to the pommel of the
saddle, and, grasping the bucking strap
with all his strength, vaulted to the
saddle so lightly and quickly that even
that experienced animal gave a little
grunt of surprise.
For moment the pony stood as if in
meditation. Then, shaking his head
and heaving a great sigh indicating
how much to be regretted the whole
thing was, he trotted fer several yards,
getting his muscles well into action.
And then, with a suddenness truly
amazing, he "lit into" spasm of buck
ing fearful to see and more fearful to
endure. He shot into the air like a
spring from out Il broken clock; he
shook himself in mid-fight like a rag

up he went again. his back arching like
bow. his head down between his legs,
his tail flying.
And Bob! Hanging desperately to
the bride rein with one throbbng
hand, gripped the buclling strap with
the other, pinching his legs together
with all his might, he staid on top
while he gritted his teeth to keep them
from swapping together and biting his
tongue off with the terrible jerking and
Juggling to which he was subjected.
Changing his tactics with lightning
like rapidity, the broncho now ceased
his bucking. Throwing his foam-hecked
mouth aloft, he ran al top speed, dash
ing away through the brush into a
trail leading toward the mountains.

BORING FOR RABBITS.

in their burrows and enjoy feast while
the hunter impatiently waits above for
the temperance of his quarry.
With the new hunting apparatus,

device which is sure TO drive the game

A depth of 20 feet can be reached sue

device say it is infallible. The bulb

then the bit brace revolved to the
right, pushing on the cable at the same
time. The bulb viii follow all the de-

volve the brace to the right, but pull on
the cable. The threads on the bulb and
coupling are made right-handed, as are
the strands of the cable.
If a hunter desires to smoke a rab-
bit out of his hole he can fill the iron
bulb with cotton waste saturated with
kerosene or powdered sulphur, and then
heat the metal until the filing begins
to smoke. After inserting the cable in
the burrow one of the holes should be
closed. and the rest is easy. providing

this method, and the game is scared out.

Finally, he reached hillock, where

DISPLAY OF PROPER SPIRIT.

The display of spirit is often a good

recent shopping experience. She

several places and could not find Just

young woman came forward TO wait
on her. The shopping woman, who is a
very kindly disposed person, spoke to
the clerk pleasantly and explained her
wishes. The girl thrust out her chin,
but led the way to the wire counter.
There was no rack of the description
called for
The clerk was very unpleasant. She
remarked, spitefully:
Il haven't that thing in stock! I
don't know what anyone wants with
that cheap stuff. 1 am sure l wouldn't
have it,"
The shopping woman turned away in
disgust, but she said nothing
The clerk came up behind her and
asked:
as there anything else you want to
see?"
The shopping woman thought the
clerk was becoming more amiable. and
said that she wanted to look at clocks.
Right up in front; just walk up
said the girl.
The shopping woman was tired, ard
she walked leisurely along the aisle. The
clerk said, rather sharply:
Right up in front, please"
The shopping woman did not hurry;
she did not want to do so.
Then the girl said, very sharply and
peremptorily:
walk up! Walk up!"
The shopping woman had borne as
much as she could. She turned to the
clerk, gave her a naughty look, and
remarked acidly:

The disagreeable clerk drew in her
horns.-St. Louis Republic.
