When Size and Might Didn't Count.
Isn't It queer how often people who
are very big or very strong appear
To think that they can do Just as
they please? They do. Yes, sir. they
do. They take what they want be-
cause they know they can and no
one can stop them. OF course II is
one form of selfishness.
Now. Buster Bear is very big. Also
he is very strong. lie has great
claws. He can do just about as he
pleases, and usually he does. Fiat
horns the Moose Is about the only
one In the Green Forest whom Bus
ter Bear would fear to fight. So Bus
ter has the habit of doing just about
as he pleases among the other peo'
pie Of the Green Forest.
There are Just two OF the smaller
people for whom Buster has respect
and who in turn are not afraid OF
Buster. One Is Jimmy Skunk This
II the reason that Buster was 30 I'M
certain as he sat In the moonlight
In the clearing where Farmer
Browns sugar house was. Jimmy
Skunk was there too. and Jimmy
was right In front OF the door OF the
sugar house. Buster was sure that
he could break into that sugar house
II he really tried. Indeed II was for
this PURPOSE that he had come over
'Ohere. lie knew that neither Farmer
Browns Boy nor Farmer Brown
were there. His tongue fairly dripped
with longing for some of the sweets
he knew had been made inside that
sugar house. so Buster was much
upset when he discovered Jimmy
Skunk.
Now, Jimmy Skunk was 80 small
compared with Buster Bear that
Buster could have flattened him right
out with one blow of big paw. He
knew H. Yet Buster didn't dare go
near enough TO try II. lie walked
back and forth at respectful dis
tance, or sat up and stared long and
hard at the sugar house. All the time
he grew angrler and angrler. He
knew. he just knew he could get into
that sugar house IL he tried. There
wasn't n thing to prevent him ex-
cepting the presence of that little fel-
low In black and white just In front
OF the door.
muttered TO himself lie walked
around behind the sugar house. There
was no way Of getting In from that
side. lie returned once more TO the
'ront. hoping that Jimmy Skunk

zongolia's Wild Dogs
Fiercer Than Wolves

The Mongols believe when persons
ARE about to die that evil spirits en-
Ter the body, according to Mr.. Roy
chapman. leader of the American Mu-
scum Asiatic- expedition.
The bodies, once death has occurred,
are placed on carts, driven over the
toughest possible ground, and during
the journey thrown off, TO be devoured
by wild ldogs. These dogs are doubt
less the 'fiercest creatures in the world
They are indeed terrible, and were a
constant menace to the lives of the
members of the expedition.
No member, said Mr.. Chapman, went
out of the camp unless armed with re-
Ivolver and knife. No one In Urga,
the Monaghan capital dares to
go through the meat market at night.
They would be seized and killed with
In minute If they ventured to do so.
The members of the expedition on at
least three occasions came within an
ace Of death from these animals.
