The Rescue.

L had been IN the Bear raw
Mountains about three weeks.
During this time Juniata, "The
Child of the Prairie" had called
to see us, as Bob said she would.
AS soon as Juniata learned that
Bob and I were to be partners for
the next two years she insisted on
knowing my name, and [ stated
that it was Ezekial Montgomery
Davenport.
"Jimminyr said she, "they
gave you name enough. But we'll
cut it down to Zeke; that's 'nough."
And so 1 became plain Zeke.
I was seated on the cabin floor
one morning mending my hunting
coat, at the same time [ was won
dering what had become of Bob.
Two days before he had gone to
inspect our traps. We took turns
visiting the traps, but always
arrived home before shutdown.
And now Bob had been gone two
days and nights. [ decided to
take some food and go see what
had become of him. [ was dill
gently applying the needle and
had just about finished my task,
when something cast shadow
across the open doorway. Glanc-
ing up 1 beheld Juniata. She
carried two rifles. Seeing me she
said: "Mornin', Zeke! Say, did
you get scared and lose your
gun?"
"Nopep said I. "Why, where
did you find that gun?'
ooh! [ found it on the ledge
up over the Bears Cave. Thot
perhaps you had seen bear an
throwed down your gun and ske-
daddled for home" Then she
laughed, the same loud laugh
which had echoed over the prairie
the night that I first saw her.
She handed the rifle to me. 1t

self in an emergency; but how
came his rifle to be lying on that
ledge? Considerable snow had
fallen of late and I surmised that
he had fallen in some pitfall, there
being many in these mountains.

The Sagacity Of Nose.

good old Colonel Duncett provided
his home county with large sum
Of money, to be used for the pur-
pose of building a spacious, up-to-
date courthouse. His donation
was unconditional, save for the re-
quest that his faithful colored
servant, Josephine, should be in
stalled as a janitress for the re-
naming days of her life. Nose,
the other servant, felt keenly hurt
when he found himself out in the
snow with only a few paltry dol
lars as reward for years of labor.
Ever since that day of disap-
pointment, old Nose became diff
ferent man. Some claimed he
experienced a change Of heart, that
religion had taken hold of him
it was even whispered about that
he was slowly going to the dogs.
He became very independent and
wouldn't work, unless he saw the
money first. His usual haunts
were deserted even; his warm cor
ner in the grocery store had no
charms for him. When he cut
his hand one day, he ap-
preached the county doctor, had
his wound dressed and sin don t
give darn way asked for his
bill. The physician nearly COL
lapsed and jok1ngly remarked:
"Only a dollar, Nose" Without
protest he drew an old leather
bag from his pocket and calmly
handed brand new dollar bill to
the astonished doctor.
The chicken houses about town
were left wide open; people felt
ashamed to resort to locks and
bolts in the face of so much
honesty. At another time he was
asked to bring his fiddle to the
frehall, it was customary during
election time that Nose fddled
for any candidate that needed a
boost and was willing to hand
over the cash. But Nose wasn't
in need of money, so it seemed.
But the climax came on election
day preceding the opening OF the
new county courthouse. When a
prominent politician put a new
two-dollar bill into Moses hand,
the old man became abusive. The
candidate winked his eye and soft

"WeIl," said she, ''let's go an
hunt him up; but let's eat first,
for I'm hungry I prepared a
hasty neal. While we ate she
told me that she was hunting and
sat down to rest on boulder
when she accidently saw Bob's
rifle lying nearby.
Soon we were on our way in
quest of Bob. We visited the
traps first to see if he had been
there lately. About three O'Clock
we arrived at the place where
Juniata had found the gun. No
trace of Bob was visible. We
sat on the boulder and talked the
matter over, Juniata said: Gle
can't be- very far from here for he
wouldn't go away and leave his
rifle here, would he?'
"Well, hardly" I replied.
She arose and passed around
the boulder. I renamed seated.
She was some few feet behind me.
Soon she cried: ''Help, Zeke!
Helpw I sprang to my feet and
turned just in time to see her dis
appear in a pitfall. Cautiously
approaching the pitfall I leaned
over the edge and called: "Juni-
alta! are you hurt?"
Then from far down the pit
came the warning known to hunt
ers-"Hush." Soon there was the
loud report of a rifle fred twice.
Something was happening which
I could not understand; but I was
used to the ways Of hunters, SO I
remained quiet and alert.
The sound of talking on the
ledge below me aroused my curl
osity, so stepping to the edge of
the point, overhanging the ledge,
I peered down. There were Bob
and Juniata. Bob was eating
some of the food which she had
brought with her.
"Hello! Bob," I called. He
glanced up and replied:
"Hello, sonny! You and the
little gal jest came in time
They assembled to where [ stood.
Pointing to the hole through which
Juniata had fallen, Bob said:
''Day afore yesterday 1 visited
the traps an was bout to return
home, when [ seed a bar standin
on the ledge jest below hyar. [
aimed to get him. so cut round
