LIFE, BUT LOST

is an American soldier of fortune who
has sought adventure in many lands
and is master of many trades. He
is now living the simple life as. cook

true story of an experience he had
on a recent hunting trip, which rec

I've had enough of hunting big
game, whether to shoot it or to trap
it. The little mix-up l had with a
lion in East Africa last December has
settled the matter. don't care to
furnish any more of my own meat
for hungry ionesses and such.
Our expedition was out to capture
animals for eircuses and ZOOS, and
we were working south of Nairobi.
We had caught plenty of hyenas and
other small animals, but wanted
few lions and tigers and a rhino or
two.
We made pitfalls in the jungle, set
the traps and made the rounds, and
on the first round got three full
grown lions and a honess. We Gagged
them and sent them back to camp
and proceeded through the hills on
foot.
Suddenly, as our party moved
through the dense, thorn-covered
bushes, the men in front heard a
growl and saw a Honess crouching
in the brush, with three fat cubs
romping near her. One of the hunt
ers shot her with an express rifle
and she toppled over. They took the
cubs alive and went on, leaving two
natives to skin the lioness.
