aasn't gone and bought a whole years
supply OF neckues! And l was going
20 get him neckties for Christmas.
That's just the man of it. don't see
why he couldn't have waited little
while. Let me see. suppose I'll have
to get him a fob or something like
that, now"
II was on the following evening that
Frederick Allison suddenly turned TO
his wife, after dinner, saying
"oh, Juliet, l want to show you a
fob that / bought for myself today. It's
just the thing I've been wanting for a
long time"
Juliet's enthusiasm over 1t was much
forced. as her husband might easily
have seen, and perhaps did see. After
they had dropped the subject she hap
pened to glance at his scarfpin and
new Joy sprang up within her. She
would get him a scarfpin for Christ
mas, for his old one was rather out of
style and never had been an expensive
one, anyway.
by the way, DEAR said Allison the
next evening, Il bought something to-
day that I'd like to have you look at.
OF course, it was a scarfpin. Juliet
knew it would be the moment she saw
the tissue paper package which he
fished out of his vest pocket. She pre-
tended, with brave heart, to think it
was very pretty, but she fancied that
she could have made better selection
if he had only permitted her to have
the chance.
At the Office Allison had told the
boys of the splendid plan he had hit
upon for the purpose of keeping his
wife from buying impossible things in
the shape of Christmas presents for
him, and it was with great satisfaction
that he reported day after day how he
was progressing.
Christmas was only a week away
and Juliet lay awake a long time
that night trying to think what present
she could get for her husband. There
were the new books, but he had in.

formed her, to last him all winter.
Then it was that the iron entered Ju
liet Allison's soul. She decided to give
up the idea of making her husband a
Christmas present that would be in
any wise distinctive. She would mere
ly get him a pair of gloves and per-
haps a few handkerchiefs. Hardly had
she adopted this resolution, however,
before he turned to her saying:
4 happened to be in Witherspoon's
this afternoon to get some shirts, and
! thought / might as we'll lay in sup
ply of gloves, handkerchiefs and sus-
penders. They'll probably be sent out
tomorrow"

She went back to her chair and sat
.or a long time gazing at the flames
which fiickered around the gas log.
The daily paper was lying on the table
at her elbow, and her glance at length
fell upon some large black letters
which presently resolved themselves
into words. Then she read this adver-
tisement:

The ROUNDUP.
A Great Picture Play at The Colonial
Theatre Last Halt of Week.

A Great Picture Play at The Colonial
Theatre Last Halt Of Week.
One of the greatest hand. to-hand
struggles between man end brute that
could ever be staged gre w out of the
attempt of Corporal Roy Hunter, Of
Vancouver, the soldier cowboy, to
bulldog wild eyed, long-horned steer
Disdsining to run his animal foe un-
til il was tired out, he leaped from
his galloping horse to the long stillet-
to horns after chasing it scarce hun
ded yards, and before he could check
the running brute and bring it to bay,
he had been dagged beneath the sharp
ho0fs the entire length of the grand
stand The battle was a fierce one
and it looked to the thrilled specta-
tors as il it was to be for life and
death. Twice Hunter stopped the
steer and essayed to twist the head
for fall, but instead the strength of
the animal put the man on the defen-
give instead of the offensive.
Once the army man knocked the
steer from his feet, but before be-
could take advantage of the fall, his
hold had been broken. But before
the steer could make a break for
freedom, Hunter had again grabbed
the horns, but this time, to save him
self from being gored, he was forced
to wrap his body about the brute's
head and hold on with a grim grip.
In this position he was dashed into
the fence AID, his strength finally
failing he was dragged half around
the track, in eminent danger of SER
ious injury, but still re fusing to re-
lease his hold cn the horns until, ut
terly exhausted, he was flung off,
face downward, into the dust.
He was lifted to his feet, and,
when, with a wave of his hand, told
the crowd he was not hurt, was greet
ed with mighty cheer. 1t was the
gamest fight ever witnessed at
