started up to top Of the
mountain. which only
looked to be about a mile

hours going to the top.
Here we had some great
sport shooting black-tail
deer. as they were plenti-
full and one could get such
good long range shots,
which were the kind we
wanted as they afforded
the greater sport. Killing
deer in this way was too
easy, as they were plenti-

On the top and sides of

All the deer killed on
these mountains were fat

to return to camp. We

The Quaker's Bargain.

An amusing tale of a farmer who
found out to his sorrow that honesty
is the best policy. says the New York
Sun. comes from Thomas De Woes
Market Book 1t happened in
1920 in a New York market, when
a weighmaster had been appointed
by the agricultural society to see that
the public was honestly served.
One morning a respectable-looking
and wealthy farmer who was gen
orally known to cheat whenever he
had a chance. brought his butter to
Fly market done up in pound rolls.
This was when butter was scarce and
worth 2 shillings 8 pence a pound,
and it had a quick sale, which no
doubt induced him to scant the
weight in each roll.
This morning the weighmaster APP
peared Unexpectedly, and saw the
farmers butter open for sale. He
prepared his test scales to weigh it.
While he was doing so the farmer
slipped a guinea IS gold piece
out of his pocket, and while the
weighmaster's back was turned
thrust it into the top roll, as he
thought unperceived by any one, to
make up the required weight. The
roll was taken up and weighed full
weight. which satisfied the weight
master, who did o weigh another.
While he vas putting up his scale
a Quaker gentleman, who had been
standing of a little distance and had
seen the whole transaction, came up
and inquired the price of the butter.
Three shilings, said the farmer.
Put me up that roll" said the
Quaker, pointing to the guinea roll.
To this the farmer replied, Il have
sold that roll to a friend"
mo, thee has not" responded the
Quaker. Thee can give thy friend
another roll, If they are all good and
weigh alike" and he turned to the
weighmaster for support.
You are entitled to the roll, or
any roll you choose to take if they
were priced to you" said the weigh
smaster.
With this the Quaker took up the
guinea roll and placed IL in his bas-
ket, then he turned back to say to
the farmer. Thee will not find
cheating always profitable"

He took his stand back of the last

The merchant had been gone

the necessary query, and put the re-

the answer. Got a lot of oil for

Presently the merchant returned

Black Sheep.

~ DAHNNDs
From their fold mates they wander
far,
Their ways seem harsh and wild
They follow the beck of a baleful
star,
Their paths are dream beguiled.
Yet happy they sought but a wider
range,
Some loftier mountain slope.
And little rocked of the country
strange
Beyond the gates of hope.
And haply a bell with a Turing call
Summoned their feet to tread,
Midst the cruel rocks, where the
deep pitfall
And the lurking snare are spread
Maybe, in spite of their tameless
days
OF outcast liberty,
They're sick at heart for the homely
ways
Where their gathered brothers be.
And oft at night when the plains fall
dark,
And the hills loom large and dim,
For the shepherds voice they mutely
bark,
And their souls go out to him.
Meanwhile. BLACK sheep Black
sheep We cry,
Safe In the inner fold,
And maybe they hear and wonder
why,
And marval, out in the cold.

Push on. sing on,
Things will come your way.
Sitting down and whining
Never helps a bit.
Best way to get there is by
Keeping up your grit.
Don't give up hoping
When the ship goes down.
Grab a spar or something,
Just refuse to drown.
Don't think you're dying
Just because you're hit.
smile in face of Danger,
And hang on TO your grit.
Folks die too easy
They sort of fade away,
Make a little error
And give up in dismay.
Kind of man that's needed
Is the man of ready wit
Who laughs at pain and trouble
And always keeps his grit.
