rushes into the station to get a sand

nut and a piece Of pie. She gives her
orders as King Richard might call for
his horses, or Cleopatra her barge, and
heaven help the poor attendants If they
do not fly to do her biddings. She is
disdainful of her food and scathing In
her comments on the service. She pays
her check with the air of an injured

HER FIRST LION.
.~>~~~~

The roar Of a lion, hunting, Is a new
er-to-be-forgotten sound, declares Miss
Agnes Herbert in 1.-TWO Dianas in So
maitland" She describes hearing the
lions, following them up through the
jungle, and the nearly fatal results to
herself in their capture.
In one tense second 1 realized that l
had seen two monstrous moving beasts,
yellowish and majestic. They were
very close, and moved at slow pace
from the bush ahead into patch of
still thicker cover to the left. l remem-
Der that though the great moment for
which we had planned and longed and
striven was really at hand, all my ex-
element left me, and there was nothing
but cold, tingling sensation running
about my veins.
The jungle cover parted, and with
1.-THE, stretched shoulders a lioness
shook herself half-free Of the density,
then crouched low again. Down. until
only the fiat Of her skull showed, and
her small twitching ears. In one mo-
ment more she would be on US.
Sighting as low as I could on that
half-arc Of yellow 1 pulled the trigger,
and Cecily's rifle cracked simultaneous
~. The head of the lioness pressed
lower, and nothing showed above the
ridge Of grass and thorn. The lioness
must be dead. And yet, could one kill
20 great a foe so quickly?
Then 1 did an namely stupid thing.
1t was my first lion-hunt, and my ig-
norance and enthusiasm carried me
away. I ran forward to investigate.
with my rife at the trail. I had for
gotten that the bush contained another
enemy.
A snarling road, and almost before I
could do anything but bring up my rife
and fire without the sights, lion broke
from the side Of the brake. Ny nerves
seemed to relax, and 1 tried to hurl
myself to one side. There was no DOW
or Of hurting left in me, and I simply
fell sideways, and that saved me. For
the great cat had not bargained for a
victim slightly to the right or left. His
weight fell on my legs merely, and his
claws stuck in.
Before he had time to turn and rend
me, almost instantaneously my cousin
fred. The top Of the lions head was
blown to smithereens, and the heavy
body sank. The whole world seemed to
me to be bounded north, south, east and
west by lion.
