Angry Creature.
When anyone grow: eloquent over

his his shoulders lie in." bum;
for he has live‘ ‘ thirty years in
the bush. and knows all about tho
fighting powers and propensities of the
bucks.
When his father hrougfiit him to the
bush, he was a good-Cited boy. He had
seen a few deer shut. bled and hung up
but he had-hem in the. bush 90-0
. months before he had his own adven-
ture. it was in the early winter, and
his father and brothers were interest:
ed in taking out IosI.
One day Jim heard his dog barking
furiously in the near-by swamp. He
seized his gun and wdbt down. The
dog had a big buck at bay. and the
buck seemed to be enjoying the sport
quite as much u the dog. The dog
tried again and again to get a grip
on the deer, but the horns were ni-
ways in the way. Again and again
the deer rushed at the dog. but be
always dodged skillfully and snapped
at the deer‘s legs. it looked to Jim
like a case of endurance: but the end
came with startling owiftnesli. Wheth-
er the dog weakened or was caught
off his guard, Jim never knew; but
like is streak of lightning the‘ buck
landed on the dog with both sharp
front feet. There was a wild scream
and the dog lay perfectly still. The
deer continued to lap up and down
and cut the dog’s body to pieces with
his knife-like hoofs.
Jim drew up his gun and fired. The
buck lifted his head and charged. Jim
threw another cartridge into the old-
fashioned ride that be had and fired
a second shot. That brotigitt down
the book with a crash.
Jim drew his hunting knife and ran
to cut the doors throat. lie puriti-
knee on the doors shudder. and had
barely touched the throat with the
knife in» the door sprung up. Jim
went flying into tile-ow one the
bucks bend: andbe lost his knife. The
deer whirled around, and as Jim tried
to got to his feet it hit kl- ln the back
and knocked hill Mn. He tried to
rise again and was knocked over. The
