cred great apron full OF the rich,
luscious fruit in the ravine about
quarter Of mile from the house, when
she heard shots and shouts in the dis.

started for the house leisurely, attrib-
uting the commotion to some hurrah
exploits of the cowboys on a neighbor-
ing ranch.
Then suddenly Beatrice uttered a
sharp cry. There burst from a copse
great shagged bear. Its mouth was
foaming, the blood was trickling down
from its face, and it swung along at
a fearful rate in the direction of the
house.

She futtered like a frightened but

bear tore through the little house gar

darted down the steps, and then
Beatrice ran fast as she could, reached
doors and set the heavy oaken bars
across the heavy planks. Then she
ran into the house, locked and bolted
the door leading into the cellar and
sat down to cry.

wrought excitement that the tears
came, for Beatrice felt fairly trium-
phant. She had controlled her fright.

proud of her first exploit in capturing

forest"
Beatrice valiantly took down the
house rife from the antlers over the
dining room clock and placed it on
the table. Then she got the axe from
the yard. Next she added the poker
to this warlike equipment.
She listened for some demonstra-

read about as pertaining to bears, did
