FROM THE WEST. the waist, fearing the next would bring the Witter over niy head I pulled back, for the bed of the lake was a regular ' muskeg and, how- ever I longed for roast goose. I didnt quite fanov going the mus- keg -way to the Happy bunting grounds. By the time 1 reached shore, Lloyd was there, and I pointed triumphantly to the dead goose now being drifted by the wind out into the lake. He was for making a raft, I was for going two miles back, to a settler's house and get- ting a boat. Finally we decided to eat dinner, after which we oould go to the far side of the lake and pick up the goose which was now being carried quiekly in that direc- tion by the heavy gale that had arisen. Oh 1 My ! it was certainly easy, at least we thot so, as we licked up the last spoonful" of syrup ,and washed down the dry bread and biscuit with two or three quarts of scalding hot tea We set out blithely for the far- ther shore on foot but what ap- peared a mile's wall: turned out to be over four times that distance and the fine looking shore was a regular jungle of jungles, an ag- gregation of bogs, muskegs, slou- ghs, and quagmires. Lloyd was walking along brave- ly on terra firma, as he thot, when he suddenly more than half disap- peared in a bog. I got out on a floating mass of reeds but found that location rather rickety and made my way to shore ; ,as well look for a needle in a haystack, as for that goose among the reeds. Quite .disappointed and down - cast we trailed our weary legs back to camp, looking wistfully, every now and then, at the lake, in hopes of sighting Mr. Goose, but this hope proved vain. We quickly broke camp and hit th.e trail for the East. For two three weeks after I dreamt of nothing else but grey geese. but dreaming had little ef- fect in assuaging my appetite for roast goose which remains as keen as ever. If you doubt it, just try me. Yours faithfully, R. F. Stelae. Edmonton, Oct. 1, 1907 Dear Readers.

BABYLON LINE r i1iW 1 shouldered my Winchester sevande, directly for the lake, rvias I did so, that I wished ty fad a -suitable watering -place for the team, but just why a man should shoulder a repeating shot- gun. for the above purpose, was not quite clear to Lloyd. However, he said little, and I was quickly lost to view in the thick bushes and heavy grass that grew in the ravine. I approached the lake quietly, for the ground was new to me, and peered cautiously over the tall weeds that lined the water's edge. There not thirty rods distant, a sight met my gaze that fairly took my breath and caused me to drop in my trercks. Mallard ducks! No, they were too large for ducks and besides looked almost black as they floated on the surface of the water. Grey Geese! To be sure they were ! about twenty of them and as fine a bunoh as over I saw It was the season when the wild geese were making for tb.eir Southern home and. this flock bad dropped into this quiet bay to rest and feed. By the time I had thot of a thousand and one different modes 6f procedure, my nerves were quiet again, so I peered very carefully to locate them and then threw my- self fiat on the ground and corn menced to crawl towards them, I had crawled about half the distance thru the dry grass, when, unexpootedly, I came on a little stream running into the lake. It was impossible to keep on quad• raped -fashion so I decided to try my luok, rising quickly I sent one shot into the midst .of the flock leaving one dead goose on the water and, as they rose towards me against the wind, I sent two more shots into -them, bringing two more to the water, one very badly wounded and the other with a broken wing, a fourth shot at the latter only hastened his speed And he was soon out of range. When I pulled the trigger the fifth time, in order to finish the badly wound- ed goose. which by this time was getting out of range with most of his body under water, and found that the gun had only been loaded with four shells instead of six as should have been, my dismay may be easily imagined and what 1 said while vainly trying to force an- other shell into the grin, wrong end to, might not look well in print. What would I heave given for a beat or a good dog 1 sighing and tItinikang "Of the glorious chase I. Might have had after the wounded geese I turned my attention to the dead. goose.

Very opportune, indeed, are the articles on the Nigh Power Rifle and Fatalities in the Woods and the account of how one very suc- cessful bunter has made a success of his hunting should give hints even to experienced wren.
