at the big brute. By a lucky chance the
noose slipped over its head, and as Hugh
j tried to strike again the halter tightened
around its neck.
A fearful struggle began. Gathering
up the buffalo robes, Hugh sought to
protect himself from the wildly clutch­
ing claws of the infuriated panther and
to puah it off the cutter.
A m the frightened horses galloped along
I at full Hjieed over tho rough road, the
I cutter sw’iing from side to side, bump­
ing and smashing against the trees.
Every minute threaten»*d to bring about
a collision which would dash it to pieces.
The combatants were thrown over and
over, the robes were soon in tatters ami
Hugh was bleeding from a dozen wounds
and getting weaker every minute.
The panther got his left arm in its
jaws an»l crunched it savagely, making
blood spurt out in streams. Then Hugh,
for the first time, saw the rope around
its neck. Grasping it desperately with
his free hand, he ¡»tilled on the noose
with all his might.
The suffocating ¡»ressiire caused the
I »east to let go Ids left arm, but in its
agony it tore pieces of flesh off his right
and threw’ him to the bottom of the cut­
ter.
With a frightful roar it crouched over
him, and its great paws tore at liis breast
All seemed lost, when the runaway team

The rope was tied to the seat, as men
tinned before, and the furious gallop of
the scared team tightened its hold round
the ¡»anther’s neck and gave the beast no
chance to regain its teet.

When within a hundred yards < of the
village the cutter collided with a tree
and w’as dashed to pieces.
1 he arrival of two runaway horses
alarmed the ¡icople, and they set out to
search the road a piece. They soon
found tho broken cutter and the dead
body of the panther, and not long after-
w’anl they met Hugh, limping along in
the snow.
His wounds were dressed, and a few
hours later the doctor reached Tom’s
wife.
For a week Hugh had to stay in the
settlement, but ns soon as his wounds
would allow it he went back to his house.
Toni’s W’ife had in the meantime wholly
recovered, and under her loving care
Hugh’s wounds were si>e»‘dily healed—

bors have remained the best of friends

Along in the early forties some of the
Jjest farms of today in western Ontario
were still covered with virgin forest, and
the few scattered Bcttleinents gave little
promise of ever growing into the flour­
ishing towns which now dot the country.
Over the rough roads farmerM had hard
work to gut produce to market. Game
was plentiful in the dense wood«, but bo
were bears, panthers and wolves alto­
gether too plentiful at times, and very
little traveling was done after dark.
Among the first settlers of what is now
called the garden of Canada were two
cousins, named Tom Shepton and Hugh
Mallet. Their farms adjoined and they
were t>he best of friends. But it bo hap-
pened that they both fell in love with
pretty Mary Huston, ami Tom won her.
Hugh w ; ih passionate by nature, and he
vowed he would never HjKalc to either of
them again.
Totn and Mary w’ere married one fine
July day and went t<> kee ping house at

Everything went well with the young
couple until one evening when Mary waw
taken suddenly alarmingly ill. It was
in the latter part of .January; snow
drifts bhxsked the road to the settlement
where the doctor lived; a blizzard had
been blowing for some »lays, ami it was
intensely cold.

One of the most pathetic or bights
was that seen in the Boston music hall
at the last concert given by Mario, the
once famous tenor. He was poor, and
the hall was filled with persons who
had been ardent admirers of ,his won­
derful art, and now that he had lost
his art were willing to put money in
his purse.
The tenor tried one of his great
songs, but his decayed voice refused
to sing the notes. Again he tried, and
again he failed. Then, with a sad
»mile, and a slow, mournful move­
ment of his head, he suffered the or­
chestra to play through the air, and
retired from the stage amid tiie silence
of the pitying audience.
Another pathetic story is told of
Boltesini, a famous violinist, concern­
ing his last concert at Parma:
It was a rainy evening and the man­
agers had forgotten to send a carriage
for the veteran, who set out on foot,
and had gone some distance before a
passing friend perceived liim and made
liim enter his carriage.
Arrived at the concert room, Bot-
tesini tuned his instrument and began
to rub his bow with rosin. The rosin
crumbled in his hands, and, turning
to his friends with a sad half smile,
he said, “See, it is so that Bottesini,
too, will break up.”
Then he grasped his loved instru­
ment and drew the bow across the
strings, but instantly stopped with a
wondering look, for he felt something
strange in the tone; his touch was an­
swered less readily and certainly than
of old.
Once more he tried, and once more
stopl»«l, this time with a smile, saying
only, “It answers no more.” His au­
dience perceived nothing unusual in
the performance, which they applaud
ed as warmly as ever, but Bottesini
seemed to feel the shadow of death.
• hi the following day he was stricken
with illness, and soon after the won­
derful hand was stilled forever.—

Not long since 1 asked a pretty woman
