Of all those who live in the Green Forest on the High Mountains of the Far West only two are larger, and none are more looked up to and admired, than Bugler the Elk and those of his kind when they wear on their heads the great ant- lers that are wrongly called horns. None is treated with more respect. They are not feared because they do not interfere with others; and because of their great size and strength, and because of those many pointed antlers, no one in- terlcres with (hem.

Husky the Mountain Beaver and Mrs, Musky, seeing Bugler for the first time, were sure he must be the most wonderful person in all the Great World.

Now he would send the club queen through East for a rufflng finesse; i.e., if East covered the queen, ‘South would of course ruff, but if East played low, South would discard a diamond, being quite willing to lose the club trick to West, if the latter had the king. Thus, at the very worst, south would lose the heart trick originally conceded, the club king (if West had it), and the diamond trick which ‘the enemy could thcn cash.

Then another just like him but a little bigger had appeared. There had followed such a fight as the Green Forest had seldom seen. Now. helpless and hopeless, the two lay on the ground in a little glsds locked together by the very ant- lers of which they had been so proud such a short time ago. They had been so big and so strong and so proud and so sure of themselves that their helpless- ness now as they lay there on the torn and trampled ground of the little giade seemed much more sail than it would have had. they been small folks like the Mountain Beavers looking on. These were about the size of Jerry Muskrat. So it was a sad, sad sight to sll who saw it save a few. To them it was a glad sight instead of a sad Ilve‘Wolf ventured nearer. The respect sight. They were Howler the Wolf and Cousin Coyote, Puma the Mountain Lion and Thunderbolt the Eagle, Crosker the Raven, and g few smaller eaters of meat. They were sitting round now watching and waiting, each at a. respectful distance from the others and each watching his neighbors almost a5 closely as he did the helpless fight- ers. What were they waiting for? To be sure that the ones they had not dared attack while they were on their feet were really as help- less now as they appeared to be. When Puma the Mountain Lion cautiously crept nearer all the others moved a little nearer. He snarled at them but they paid no attention to his threats. Then Bugle!" feebly moved a leg. 1n- qstantly Puma leaped back. All the [others moved back too. The same ithing hu-ppened when Howler the in which all had held the size and -strength and the sharp points of (the great antlers of the fallen fighters persisted now in their helplessness and growing feeble- ness. They were afraid. those hungry waiters. "It isn't a nice thing to see. Let's go back down 1n our under- ground home. They are cowards, those folks," said Musky the Mountain Beaver. "Perhaps they are just being careful. You know very well, Musky, that it always pays to be careful." said Mrs. Musky as she prepared to follow him down in the tunnel that led to their home. "Cowards i" repeated Musky scornfully. "Do you know what?" "Whsti" asked Mrs. Musky. "when I first saw that Bugler 1 wished I was as big as he is. I was sure he couldn't be afraid of anybody. I thought how wonder- ful that must‘ be. Now I am glad I am a8 I am, no bigger than I em. and living the way we do. That's what," replied Musky. Mrs. Musky nodded happily and understsndingly. "l wouldn't trade our way of living with anybody," said she. "I guess no others have less to worry about than we do. As long as we stay underground. in daytime no hungry folks can see us. We are not afraid to work, and can dig our way to all the food we need without being seen. Plenty to eat and few dangers. what more can any one ask? And that is what we have." "That was the saddest sight I've ever seen," said Musky soberly. She nodded again. she knew what he meant. King of The Royal Mounted ? 1-‘ “ ‘A _, 3‘ .
