WAYS OF THE MOOSE
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MODEST
OF ALL WILD ANIMALS.
The Largest OF the Deer Family, Lfv-
ing or Extinct-The Alaskan Bull
Moose Have the Greatest AntIers.
Ia Cow and Her ~Ungainly Calf.
Now and then In wanderings through
the mountain and forest one comes up
on a gigantic blackish brown deer
which by reason Of the great length OF
Its yellowish gray legs stands higher
than a tall horse. 1t Is clothed In
coarse, bristly hair, longest on the neck
and shoulders, and II has a rather ugly
overhanging nose which distinguishes
1t at once from all other kinds of deer.
From the throat of the male hangs q
long hair covered a~ppendage known as
the bell" and in the fall and winter
he has also q pair OF widespreading
antlers, very heavy and much hattened
or 'plamated." He stalks the forest
through underground and over fallen
trunks like a king Of giants, or, IL
alarmed, he speeds away at an amaz-
ingly swift swinging trot and with a
crashing which resembles the sound Of
falling trees. Such is the moose, the
largest Of all deer, living or extinct.
The moose is chiefly an animal Of the
northern woods, the southern limit of
it's range being the head Of Green riv-
er, Wyoming. 1t is also found in
northern Maine, New Brunswick,
southern Canada, Idaho, British Column
bia, Alberta, Athabasca, Yukon and
Alaska. 1t is strictly a dweller of the
forest, seldom yenturing to treeless
plains. 1t lives for the most part by
browsing on the leaves, twigs and bark
of trees, particularly young trees, In
order TO reach the tops of tall saplings
the moose rears up against them, strad-
ding them with his long legs and lit
orally riding them down. He Is fond
est Of birch, hemlock, alder, aspen, will
low and maple. He also eats MOSES
and lichens.
In May the "cow," as the female
mos is called, gives birth to a long
legged, ungainly, tawny colored calf,
to protect which the mother will fight
any woodland creature TO the death.
She has no a~ntlers, but she can use
her great sharp hoofs with the skill Of
a prize fighter and has been known to
pound TO death a large black bear and
fairly trample his body into the
ground. The calf stays with its moth
er for two or three years, or until he
wanders off to seek a mate for him
self. One day last summer | came sud
denly upon n COW moose standing knee

by Mrs. Meta Folger
Townsend: :::::

/ once heard a minister who was
serving a church in Eastern North
Carolina say that sometimes he got as
homeSick as a Snitzer for the sight of
the mountains. That's it. If you ever,
by birth or training, get into your soul
the real passion for the mountains,
you may r~t hope to be quite happy
anywhere else save in sight of them.
Men may go out from among them
and find a great happiness in some
other kind of life but if that man
ever loves the fiat country quite so
Well as he does his native mountains
you may be sure there is a lack of
fineness in his nature.
Have you ever been in the noun
tains enough to be susceptible to their
changes? Sometimes how soft and
tender they looki OF late there have
been days in which the haze about
them gave them a beauty very differ
ent from that which belongs to their
snow covered heights. When the air
is thin and cold the mountains sharp
depressing you with their calm
grandeur.
They are never more beautiful than
during the moonlight nights of winter
when they are clad in snow, and still
it is beauty that fairly makes your
heart ache.
Sometimes, and especially when
they are taking on the greenness of
early summer. they have a look of
friendliness about them, as if they
would admit of human intimacy. But
in winter when the dusk falls upon
them, even then you feel the weight of
their loneliness, and after the world s
asleep there are no words to tell Of
their awe-inspiring powers Lonely,
silent, eternal, and oh, so beautiful!
The gres test books do not need any
local coloring--the appeal is to the
imagination, the heart, the inward
eye" and not to the physical vision. |

Les Miserables does not depend on
Paris for its interest You might
strike out the description of Waterloo
fine as that is-and do small dam
age to the novel. But there is a class
of books which get much of their
strength and beauty from the setting
of the story. In Miss Glasgow's De-
liverance the tobacco plant faunts
itself across the pages of the book, it
dominates the whole thing. So in
Miss Murfree's Tennessee Tales, the
mountains are always there. She
pauses to tell you just how they look
at almost every turn, and l believe she
could not write SO well Of anything
else, though she does sometimes prove
bit tedious in her descriptions. She
is to be pardoned for ah! the beauty
of them, the wondrous charm of them,l

80 which were best, to roam or rest !?
The lands lap or waters breast?
There has been much said about the
lure of the sea, yet | can not imagine
the waters getting so great hold on
the Imagination and the soul of man
as the mountains do.
1t has seemed to me that somewhat
of the nature-talk to which we are be-
ing treated now a days is affectation.
John Burroughs loves the woods and
its inmates. One can imagine that he
could be happy living such a life as
Audubon lived. But your busy man of
the world who has a short outing dur
ing the summer season, fishes trampS
or hunts with a comrade, knows moth
ing of the real passion which the soul
may conceive for nature. He has but
toyed with her. In spite of the fact
that she has strengthened him, heart,
body and brain, he would soon tire of
her and would long for the hustle of
the street and the whirl of competi-
ton in the worlds markets. And as
for the average city bred or townbred
woman who goes into rhapsodies over
the beauty of an autumn leaf she
may think herself sincere in her low"
for nature, but compel her to live face
to face with the great mother of us,
and she would suffer from ennui

woman has sounded life and found its
deeper waters, as we'll as learned what
things may prove but shadows she
might later come to this mother ma
ture with yearning love, II very
inconsistencies for the touch of her,
the healing grace of her.
Today is the 18th of April. March
has been one of the most perfect of
spring months. The air has wooed
the earth into the tenderest and most
elusive beauty-no Haunting of color,
no bold promises of future richness
but yesterday came a change There
were Clouds a sudden darkening, 4
furry of snow, deep mutterings of
thunder-then q steady down-cominS
of snow. Flakes are tossed this way
and that in fine confusion. Some fall
straight down. Some are swept side
wise. crossed by other currents of
wind bearing in their grasp a host of
feathery flakes. Battling there in mid
air they finally descend and meet the
waiting earth in most friendly fashion,
and in a short time all is white-fair
to the eye. He giveth His snow like
wool"
But April, ever variable as a wo-
man. must be true to herself. There's
swift current of warmth, a brilliant
CLEAN of sunlight across the valley
and in few minutes time the slight
covering has disappeared has gone
heavenward in a soft haze.
Down in the valley today shows no
