it was almost den-up time and Three-legs the Coon, so called be- cause he had but itu-ee legs. huv- ing twisted ofi one in a cruel steel trap, was about ready to retire. Deli-up time is that time L1 thc season when those who sleep all winter. or most of it, go to bed for the long sleep. The homes oi such folks are called dens. Going to bed for the winter is called den- nlng-up. The time is earlier for some than for others. Johnny Chuck and Nimblehuels the Jump- ing Mouse are the earliest to den- up. They do not. wait for really cold weather. Buster Bear is one oi the last. usually the last.

South cashed the heart ace, then iinessed to dunimys jack. East won and sent back the diamond queen. Declnrcr ducked. but East then led a low diamond and South was in with the king. Now d9- clarer tried for a break of the two missing hearts, but West showed ou .

There was only one hope left- as South sruv it. He put up the heart ace. cashed the diamond ace. and threw East in with his high heart.

TllHZC-lPZS did smell ii, and his nose went twitch, twitch, twitch.

"Did you aver smell anything better?" asked the young Coon. His nine still twitched and his mouth began to \\ﬂll"'f‘. Had you been there 1t. is mouahly that you would not have smelled anything at all, for it was very faint. Had you smelled ll you very likely would have turned up your ilosc. for it was a fishy smell. The two Coons lvoenn to more forward slowly. their noses all the time twitching.

The smell grew slrailgnr, It was now a very. very fishy smell. I am sure it would have betiiwloo fishy to? you oi- me. But it. wasn't tor those two Coons. No. sir, it wasn‘t

for them. Their mouths watered more and more. I suspect they drooled. They came to a place

where the bank was fairly high. They knew just where that de- lcclahle smell tto them) was coin- lug from. It was coming from the iout of the bunk close to the wulci". There was a hole in the bank there, a voi-y shallow hole as ii some ouc had started to dig and then given up after scooping out a lilll‘ cnrlli. That smell was coming sir gilt out oi this. There must be u tish in there. The only way they could look into it was to wade in the shallow water to get opposite it.

The young Cacti started to do this. but Three-legs pushed him aside and went first. He waded slowly. carefully. The water was very shallow, just over his feet. When he was near enough to look in by stretching his head as tar as he could he stopped. He was not quite in front at that hole in the bankdbut he could see the back oi ii. There lay what looked like u piece oi fish. It must be that ior lhcro was no smell but of fish. and that was very strong indeed.

Slowly, reluctantly, Three-legs lllrlled hack. Growlinl: he drove his young soil back loo. ln the Iuvimiuc a disappointed trapper would see their iootprlnts in the mild where they hud entered and left the water uild would wonder why they hnd turned back.
