"i,of11C otTTI wi,'RF A-001t1;1l" enough, but crawling into a thicket after is grizzly bear is not --well. conducive to undue hilarity. I had crawled on black bear he oanellrakes, but a grizzly is "dif- ferent." I knew that. for this was not my first, but heretofore the oasis wore in my favor and not that of the bear. I would not have entertained tho proposition for a moment bud I not the utmost confidence In that quiet, grizrlea, leather faced old partner back there on the rock. I had gone probahly 75 yards when I saw him, a huge "ho" silver tip. He was possibly 65 yards ahead, under a tall juni- per across a bit of open grouted under the bushes, He was sitting contentedly on his haunches, reaching up his great, hairy paws, pulling the branches down and stripping the berries into his jaws. I waited until he reached for another bough, which necessitated throwing his head up and back; then I brought the base of his skull directly between the '`hind sights" and fired. I saw him clap one big paw to the back of his head, whirl as if on a pivot, drop on all fours, and with a hor- rible growl charge for the little smoke cloud. I did not wait any longer. I did the pivot act myself and ran toward the sun, yelling: "Look out! Look out! We're' a -corrin ! We're a -comm I" I did not stop to consider either grammar or pronuncia- tion. Somehow my returu passage through the bushes did not seem at all difficult, and as I neared the bowider Paystreak spoke as calmly as directing one of the miners where to drill a hole: "To the right, son; dodge around the bowider. Ile's right after you." I obeyed. The next instant I heard a rifle shot and turned just in time to see Paystreak leap on to the left as the now infuriated bear sprang on the bowider. I fired at his great shaggy flank, and like an echo of my shot came the report of Paystreak's rifle. The bear must have recognized in me his original tormentor, for he jumped leaea the rock directly to- ward nie. I fired quickly and—ran. "Dodge around that bush and double back, son; dodge and double back to me," shouted Paystreak,, following, for he knew that it was useless to shoot into that shag- gy rump. Come to think of it, he acted as if he was a bit excited then, though I did not notice it at the time. I started to but as I doubled I stepped on a obey, PP 1 roundstone,and down I went,roll- oose, ro n ow roll- ing completely over on the short side hill. I had a glimpse of the hairy monster., with gaping, bloody jaws, almost over mo; wondered if he could kill me with one blow of that powerful forearm; then something glittered in the sunlight, I heard a "chug," a fierce snarl, then Pay - streak's cheery voice: "Up and shoot, son! Up and shoot, if you kinl" I revived instantly, and, catch- ing up my rifle, scrambled to my feet to eee the bear staggering toward Paystreak, who was "backing off," struggling with a refractory cartridge that had become jammed in the side. I fired, not at any particular spot, but at the bear. He turned on me, and I began backing just as my partner threw another cartridge in the breech. He raised his rifle, aimed quickly, bat steadily, and fired. The grizzly straightened to his full height, towering seven or eight feet, swayed for a moment, then crashed down into a bush, quivered a moment and was still. Pay- streak sat on a rook, grinned, wiped the perspiration from his face with bis old cot- ton bandanna, then drew out his old. black 1e p "How did you turn him when be was just on me? I did not hear your shot?" I asked. H® arose,walked and to the w ked ar o other side of the bear and pointed to the buckhorn hilt of a knife between the third and fourth ribs. "Didn't have time to take another step; jes' had to sock it to him far. as I could reach. 'Twasn't,quite far enough for'ard, but it did the business." . I only held out my 1 tad.

Simple but Picturesque (.;"char anal Senride Procne,. Now is the time upon us when we may expect summer dugs, and the outfit for girls is a, thing to be seriously con- sidered if it has not already been pro- vided. As the average healthy child partakes of as many athletic sports and spends her summers much as do her mother and sister's, it is only right that, , litre them. she should be fittingly at- tired. Of course ea many holidays are spent by the sea, on river or on lake that a pretty yachting or boating drams is .al- most a necessity Then, too, a neat wheeling costume goes almost without saying. The two designs given may therefore supply a popular need, the more so because they are quite simple. in design and do not present many difficulties to the home dressmaker. One design, which gives a suggestion for a simple,, smart little yachting frock, is carried out in the ever favorite com- bination of scarlet and white and might be worn suitably by a girl between 10 and 14, The skirt is in scarlet serge, and this is chosen of a fine make; the pattern is a slightly gored one, with the fullness graduated all the way round, the back being arranged in close gathers. For trimming narrow white Point of View, "Henry, we'd get along better together if you had more will -power." "No, Martha; we'd get along better 11 you didn't have quite so much."

The vest might be replaced by a white one, if lilted, for a change. For headgear a scarlet fisherman's cap would be the best or a little white sailor with a red ribbon. The second sketch shows a useful and practical cycling, costume for a girl a little older. It is carried out in a stone gray beige with a little relief in white. The Blight fullness of the skirt is ar- ranged in two flat plaits at the back. Three inches above the skirt edge is placed a narrow crossway band of white cloth. The bodice is made with slightly gathered backs and fronts. A box plait of white conceals tbe fastenings in front, and this is decorated with small, round gilt buttons arranged in sets of three, as may be seen by the sketch. The turnover collar and cuffs to the plain coat sleeves are in white, while a white waistband fastened with silver buckles encircles the waist. For head- gear may be suggested a white Tam O'Shanter trimmed with a twist of rib- bon and white quills. A Device Worth Considering. A revolving cupboard is a conveni- ence described and illustrated in the Ohio Farmer. This very handy device is constructed between the kitchen and dining room. An aperture like a door- way is cut through the wall with frame and casing 82 inches wide and 5 feet high, except that the cupboard does not reach within one foot of the floor. A post the proper length, made from 2 inch material, occupies the center on which the shelves and par- tition boards are fastened or built. T h e partitions are made from two boards 16 inches wide, screwed to one side of the post and reach to the frame ^with a cicse fit, so as to turn without= friction. The shelves are also REVOLVING CUPBOARD. made of 16 inch boards cut in half cir- cles and placed on either side of the partition at such distances apart as to suit the dishes and other ware to be used on them. After fastening on the shelves they will need supporting in front on both sides, with round or turned posts, set in flush with the edges of the shelves, so as to pass the frame when revolving. To make the cupboard revolve easily, a pivot should be driven into the bottom of post and then filed to a neat roundness within three-fourths inch of base of post and a socket made by drilling a hole a little larger than the pivot into an iron plate one-half inch. The top spud only needs a plate with hole in it. The cupboard revolves when turned by band. This arrangement does away with carrying dishes or courses for the table. While the first course is being eaten the cook fills the opposite side in kiteben, then the soiled dishes from the first are placed on the shelves and the cupboard turned with the next course into din- ing room.
