The two bears had evidently decided on a
course of action, for the male, raising him

his way along.

and as his weight, fell against. it, the entire

again raised the ak, knowing that his life
depended on this blow.
This time he struck right back of the ears,
and the blow was fatal one.
The bear made a convulsive plunge and
fell into the shanty, but he was past doing
harm, and lay quite still, shaggy mass, on
the floor.
Hal raised the ak, expecting to see the head
of the mother bear appear at the window.
But his courage was not again to be put to
the proof.
A rifle shot rang out, and in a moment
his fathers voice called him to open the
door.
The cubs grew up to be the pets of the
lumber camp. The large bearskin rugs, which
Hal keeps as trophies of his adventure, also
serve to remind him Of two promises he has
made to himself;-one is to keep frearm by
him while in the woods; the other, never
again to adopt bear-cubs until he is sure that
they are orphans.

AS it was growing light, next morning, he

Both of them were at the crack of the door,
whining and scratching.

Vied by what seemed to be an answering
whlne from outside the door. There was no
doubt doubt OF it; the. cubs were answering "a a
whine. now plaintive and now angry, made
by some animal outside.
There was only one window-a large, low
one, near the door. Throwing on his clothes,
d Hal went to this and looked cautiously out.
Before the door. whimpering, and scratching
at the logs stood large she bear.
The mother of the cubs had followed them,
gulqed by her keen sense of smell.
Hal knew that an old bear with cubs was
not creature to be safely trihed with. He
began to wish his pets were bac in their
hollow log.
Still. there was not great deal OF, dan
ger; the door was strong. The little shanty
had but one room, and was lighted by SIN
gle window. 1t was this window that gave
the boy most uneasiness.
If the old bear should notice it, there was
not much reason why she should not break
through and take revenge on him who had
interfered with her family.
There seemed to be no way of barricading
the window from the inside. Hal thought
with longing of the rifle his father carried; /;
but there was no use wishing, for he was
without a frearm.
In the meantime the old bear had given up
her attacks on the logs, and lay sullenly
watching the door. If she had moved off
far enough for Hal to pitch out the cubs and
close the door before the outraged mother
could reach him, he would gladly have done
so; but her nose was not two feet from>the
door.
At any rate, his father would be back by
noon, and Hal meant to spend as cheerful a
morning as possible.
He got his breakfast ready, and gave the
cubs another basin of corn-mea They seem

had been working.
Going up to the log, he struck half a dozen
blows into it with his AK; there followed
great great scratching about and then perfect
Hal came to the conclusion that he had
found a raccoon, and determined to cut him
out. Going to the hollow end of the log, he
stuffed 1t with pieces of wood so as to pre-
vent any escape in that way; he noticed 4 that

COON"
As he was watching it the black ball of
fur uncurled itself and crawled out of the
hole.
It was a bear cub! The cub had no sooner
gotten well out than another followed it.
The little fellows had made their appearance
in the world much too early for their, own
comfort; they seemed to be numbed and
stupid with the cold

tion.
The boys first impulse had been to kill
them with his ak. but their helplessness
touched him with pity, and he decided to
take them back to the shanty. Doubtless,
they had been deserted by their mother.
Hal threw part of his load of wood off his
sled, and, making hollow in the centre of
the remainder. put the cubs into it and pull

1t was now quite dark, and reaching the
shanty, he lit the lamps, made great fire,

the floor in their clumsy attempts to play.

showed signs of being sleepy, and so he ar,

A Lunatic's Joke

Some time ago a man went to visit friend
who was an inmate of lunatic asylum. After
prolonged chat in humorous, if not very
intelligent vein, the visitor thought it time
to go. "Is that clock right, John" he asked
of the inmate John gazed at his friend for a
time in apparently speechless amazement, then,
with chuckle, he said, my dear friend, do
you think the clock would be here if it was all

A good story of George Augustus Sala and

the occasion of the last visit to England of
the great Snowman. In the reception room,
where all were waiting to welcome the guest
of the evening, Mr. Barnum came in BEAM

said, "This is indeed surprise to me-"
"Did you hear that?" Mr.. Sala whispered to
friend. "Why, he arranged for the dinner
