TANTALIZING TEMPTERS
Poor woman! A bout all she has
is her charm of figure, and when
she attempts to display that she
incites man to crimes of blood and
passion. Herself a delicate, sweet,
docile, innocent, demure, gentle,
fragile, easily-frightened creature,
she can not comprehend the lust of
man.
It is a sad cpmmentary on brave,
courageous man that he should at­
tribute his crimes to womans
clothes, that the beautiful curves of
her figure when presented for ad­
miration should lead to thoughts of
licentiousness.
Gentle woman should not be too
severely criticized. Being so lack­
ing herself in the qualities of man
that she appeals to, she can hardly
conceive that her clothes can lead
him from the straight and narrow.
She intends to appeal to the esthetic.

tear off a great strip by liftin g his
head. He chews a bit o f this, only to
throw it aside and strip another tree
farther on. In trailing a bull moose
one can often follow his course far
ahead by the unsightly gashes or
“ peelings" which he leaves behind
him. Another destructive method o f
feedng is by ruling down young trees
whose tops are above his reach. He
straddles the trunk, bending it down
by his great weight, holding it under
his belly while he eats all the bud« and
tender twigs. A tree thus moose rid­
den rarely recovers. It remains bent
or broken, like a discarded boss; it can
not breathe without its leaves ; it dies
and the winter snows cover it from
sight.
Another noticeable characteristic o f
the bull moose is his inordinate and
unchangeable selfishness.
W hether
roaming the woods in solitude, or tear­
ing up the earth, or coming headlong
to the call, he is thinking, first, last,
and all the time, o f the safety o f his
own skin and the fullness o f hi« own
stomach. I can take o IT my hat to a
cow moose, having frequently seen her
sacrifice herself to save her offspring
or to protect the herd in the winter
y a rd ; but I never yet «aw a bull moose
do anything for anybody but himself.
He is the incarnation o f «elf-in ter­
est. A cow, or even a ca lf moose, if
she sees danger approaching, w ill warn
man’s “ Conspiracy o f Pontiac,” who
always began a speech by shouting
"O n gw eh on w e!” which in the tongue
o f that tribe, means, “ I am the only
man; all others are squaws or liars.”
A t all times the bull moose is easily
fascinated by too bright a light. Oc­
casionally, when I am studying the
animals at night, with a jack in the
bow o f my canoe, I run across his lord­
ship filling himself with lush lily-roots.
Most animals w ill stare at the jack for
a time, and then turn away into the
woods. Enough lim elight is as good as
a feast for a sensible creature. Now
and then, however I meet a bull moose
that stares too long at the light, much
as a politician might look too much
upon glory, and he ends by floundering
headlong toward the thing that dazzles
him. A t such times he is dangerous.
In his blind infatuation he sees nothing
but the b rig h t.o b je c t o f his desire,
and he clumsily knocks down every­
thing in his path as he jumps toward
it. One« I was upset in this way by a
fool moose that tumbled over my canoe
and that floundered madly when the
jack was extinguished, hitting out
aimlessly with hoofs ami antlers. The
only sure cure for such a bull ia dark­
ness, oblivion. When you meet him,
close your jack, or turn it on another
candidate. Any bull moose will sober
off quckly i f le ft in the friendly dark­
ness.
