close-set eyes fairly blazed with hatred, and below them, the open jaws bristled with formidable teeth, including the great white tusks, knife-edged and sharp as a lance at the point. Fortu- nately, for Kimton, his bullet had broken the animals back, and the hind legs were useless; otherwise 1t is un- likely that he would have lived to tell the tale. As 1t was, the boar was only able to rise on his fore legs, dragging his hinder parts, but, even thus, the man dared not let go the ear, but hung on, While the great brute thrashed the snow with him. Round they went the boar roariyng and gnashing those ter rible teeth and trying to get at the man, and the man, with drawn hunting knife, seeking for an opportunity to end the tragedy. For full ten minutes this desperate struggle lasted, and then the man. almost exhausted saw his chance, and with a skillful thrust put his adversary hors de combat. Rising to his feet very slowly, but with a feel ing of intense relief, Kimton surveyed the scene of the battle. There was a wide circle of much-trampled, blood stained snow, and in the center, a huge tusked monster-the largest boar ever killed in The Blue Mountain Forest.

other large trail. He had gone but a shortshort distance when he noticed a dark spot in the bolton of a trench. Getting down on his hands and knees, he knew at once that he was on the right trail for the spot was a blood stain and he pushed on at increased speed. The animal had taken a southerly course, sticking to the we'll
 beaten paths for ab toua mile, bu on approaching Camp 8, he had struck out for himself, and there after was com paratively little difficulty in following his trail. Aside from the fact that was no mistaking those giant footprints, every now and then a crimson drop or two wound show that it was a wound ed animal which had gone that way.
 All the morning and well into the afternoon, Kimton followed that boar along the side of Croydon Mountain, across the road which divides the park and dropped through the woods toward White -Witer Brook. He had little hope now of getting his game, but still he persisted in following, partly because
 ne had promised to do his best to fill the order quickly, and partly because he disliked to have wounded animal escape. Toward sundown his per- severance was rewarded. As he rose cautiously over the top of a knoll he saw the boar standing near a white pine tree about a hundred yards ahead of him. The animal had turned, and was toward him. It was not by any means an ideal sGlot, but the boar was suspicious and he did not dare to at- tempt to better his position. So he took took careful aim and fired, and the boar rolled over in his tracks. Drawing his hunting knife, the man ran forward seized the boar's ear with his left hand, put his knee upon the body, and pre- pared to stick the game. But before l1e could carry out his intentions, he was startled by deep, roaring grunt, and at the same time felt himself tossed suddenly upward, and the next moment he was gazing into the cavers- nous mouth of the flercest brute in The Blue Mountain Forest.

But the fugitive had vanished. and as trying to outrun him would have been worse than foolish, the hunter slowed down to think the matter over. He knew that the animal was wounded, but probably not serious ly. and that he might run for miles be- fore ne would stop. It was or no use to wait, for a wounded boar unlike 8 wounded deer will not lie down at least not until he is tio much exhausted to go any further. If the animal was to be taken at all, there was nothing to do but follow the trail and trust to luck.
 For a time the tracking was an easy matter; the animal had simply follow ed the trench, and the hunter had but to follow it too, But presently the trail divided, and it was necessary to ex- anime both branches, in order to be sure of the right one. Both breaches were full of footprints, but in the right-hand one were found some foot prints so much larger than any of the others, that the hunter had no difficult ty in deciding on his course. But be- fore long he had to stop again, and thls time his problem was more difficult to solve. Several paths led away i'll different directions, and two of them at least had been traversed by very large boar. He followed one for perhaps a quarter of mile, and seeing notsaing to make him feel sure ne was on the right track, he returned and took up the
