The black bear Scout? tackled waa an easy beast to hold because he weighed but very little. Scouty weighed about the same. They tugged a while and flopped around, and finally dropped down to the ground. Said 3couty to the other Tinies, “Gee, this beast is game." “Let’s see you put him on his back, and then I’ll gladly take a crack at doing it,” said Coppy. “I’ll admit I’m pretty strong.” “Say, this is my pet,” Scouty cried. “Right now I have him on his side. I’m going to have the fun with him. You better run along.” Then, shortly, Scouty grew tired out, and stopped the thrilling wrestling bout. He gave the bear a shove and said, “I think I'll take a nap. “You scamper right along and play, but please come back some other day.” The funny bear, however. snuggled right in Scouty's lap. “Don’t go to sleep,” cried Goldy.

RAINS BRING BENEFITS !N TWO U. S. CORNERS Farm Conditions Improved in Northwest and Southeast. By Scitnee Service WASHINGTON. Jan. 17.-Plenty of rain in two corners of the country northwest and southeast brought substantial benefits to farming in those regions, the weekly summary of crop-weather by the United States Weather Bureau shows. In the Pacific northwest, abundant rains falling on unfrozen •oil went right on in, to the great

“Gee, yor.r wrestling was a sight to see. Put on some more stunts with the bear, unless you’re getting scared.” “Aw, I was tooling,” Scouty said. “I’m ready nov. a sleepyhead, and neither am I frightened. You have seen how well I fared.” The bear then stood up on his feet. “Hey, look,” cried Dotty. “That is neat.” Xhd then she turned to Scouty and exclaimed, “Teach him to and unce. “He seems to like you very well. He may be clever, who can tell?” Brave Scouty smiled and said, “Okay. I’ll gladly take a chance.” He grabbed the bear’s paw. “Now. watch me, and do whate’er I do,” raid he. Then Scouty started dancing and the bear began to hop. It filled the Tinies with delight and they all laughed with all their might. “That’s wonderful,” wee Goldy loudly shouted. “Please don’t atop.”

joy of wheat growers. In the northern mountain and plains region, extensions of those rains helped stock men by restoring pastures and refilling drinking reservoirs.. In the southeast, higher temperatures as well as rains aided in the recovery of truck crops from the severe chilling they had had earlier in the winter. Citrus orchards also are reported as in good condition. For the great central reaches pf the United States, the winter thus far may be summarized a# “about average,” with fall-sown grains in good condition and adequate moi*ture everywhere except in the southern part of the great plaint.

Now Zopinga adjusted his shield and took a new grip on his light hunting spear. The warrior did not see the boys until they were almost opposite him, but when he did the grip cf his spear hand relaxed and a look of satisfaction overspread his evil countenance.

Seeing that he had nothing ta fear from two unarmed white beys, he waited until a turn in the trail took them from his view, then he stepped out and followed them. Zopinga was greatly elated. What matter now that his snares had failed to entrap a single victim?

—By Edgar Rice Burroughs

Had all his traps been filled, the reward would not have equaled this windfall which had come without effort on his part. The victims of hi* snares he would have had to carry home; but this new quarry walked on their own legs, most accommodatingly. toward his home village!
