twice as much as we sell her. We
shall buy still more under the scheme

the trade balance against us will re-

ever In any event, will the increased
volume of our sales to Cuba operate
compensation to the domestic interests

half-grown rats, but not an old rat
in the collection.
On the following morning he went
out again, and found the same result.
Thinking that the presence of the cap
tives would attract others, he decided
not to empty the trap for an hour or
two, and went away.
When he came back the trap was
empty. Pike was astonished, and
asked the hired man about it, but the
man declared that no one had been
in the barn except himself, and that
he had not touched the trap.
The next day and the next like
strange filling and employing of the
trap occurred. and Pike determined to
keep watch to see how the thing was
done. When the next batch of young
rats had been caught he concealed
himself in the barn loft and waited.
When he had been on watch about
half an hour he saw hoary old rat
approach the trap and apparently be-
gin sort of cross-examination of the
prisoners. Then. after satisfying him
self as to the exact condition of
things, the cute old rat, to the amaze
ment of Pike, deliberately poked his
paw between the wires of the cage and
tilted up the weight that kept in place
the little trap door through which his
young friends and relatives had fallen.
This opened the trap door sufficient
ly TO let all the prisoners out, and away
they scampered, the old rat bringing
up the rear, and all squeaking joyous

speechless with amaZement. Then he
said, simply but energetically:

The Boss Farmer was also fearful for
his safety. But TO pacify the angry
Indian, he agreed that Dry Limb
should help in the killing of the last
steer.
The sun was getting low when the
Boss Farmer beckoned to Dry Limb as
a signal that the time had come for him
TO show his valor. Dry Limb, looking
fearfully in his wife's direction,
slipped into the pen and was given the
spear to thrust into the steers neck.
The men who skinned the beef stood
on a platform with knives ready. The
steer came through the gate from the
corral with a rush. Dry Limb made a
lunge at him. The sharp point of the
spear pierced the feshy part of his
neck, driving him mad with rage, but
doing him little injury. The Boss
Farmer and the Indians cried out in
alarm as the steer made a dash for
Dry Limb. The Indian tried to climb
on the platform, but the steer was too
quick for him. 1t came at him with
lowered head. Dry Limbs copper
colored skin grew green with terror.
The steers broad horns passed on
either side of the little Indian and
pinned him to the wall. Only his
slightness and the unusual spread of
the steers horns saved him from a
quick journey to the Happy Hunting
Grounds.
The women, peeking through the
cracks, shrieked. Abbie Skunkcap left
the head she was skinning to rush to
see the excitement. One glance showed
her Dry Limbs terrified face above the
head and horns of the mad steer. The
men were kicking and jabbing the
steer viciously, but he stuck to his
victim.

NO FEAR.
The Christian Bears n Charmed Life
-SpurEeon and the Mount
Cents Tunnel

The Christian has nothing to fear
either for the life here or hereafter.
He should get rid entirely of fear, for
nothing can harm him. There is no
place where his Divine Guide will not
go with him, and that means not only
protection but joy. Sturgeon used to
tell of his dread of passing through
Mont Cents tunnel. 1t had been newly
opened and he thought il must be a
very dreary passage. I'VE thought"
he said, that il must be very dark
and therefore we had better be pro-
vided with n candle. 1t would be very
dark and close, and therefore we reck-
oned upon closing every window, for
fear we should breathe the impure air.
So we specialized, but when we ira
versed that wonderful passage the car
riages were well lighted and much of
the tunnel also, and we sat with open
windows, finding it as easy TO breathe
as on the mountains side. 1t was a
JOY rather than peril to pass through
the dreaded tunnel. So" concludes
Sturgeon, shall the voyager along the
good old way find that death is not
, what he dreams. Jesus will light the
, darksome way and the soul will need
no candle of earth; fresh breezes from
J glory will drive away the death damps
and the music of angels shall make the
heart forgetful of all pains."-N. w.

How Dry Limb, Disobedient Husband
Was saved from the Horns OF an
Angry Dilemma by His Pie

sation among the Piegans in Montana
Dry Limb is one-armed Piegan who
makes heap big talk" but, like many
of his white brothers, he subsidies per-
cePtibly in the presence of his wife.
Dry Limbs wife, who bears the name
of Abbie Skunkcap, is buxom person
of unusual height and great physical
strength, while Dry Limb himself is
small and weakened. Ever since the
day Bear Chief threw the buffale robe
over their heads and pronounced them
man and wife, Abbie has been boss of
the tepee.
Friday and Saturday are ration days
at the Old Agency, but the Indians who
live long distances away arrive on
Thursday evening and set up their
tepees along the banks of the Two
Medicine. The agency is situated on
the beautiful valley of the Two Medi-
cine. The valley takes its name from
the broad, crystal stream which rip
pies down the steep eastern slope of
the Rockies on it's way TO join the Fa-
Their of Waters.
On last Thursday evening a family
jar took place in the tePee of Dry
Limb, when he announced his intention
of asserting himself and taking active
part in the butchering of the 12 head
of cattle which the government was to
