I had one the other day, who offered to lend me two thousand dollars, at low interest and with- out security. I. do not know where he got the idea, but he thought I was hard up. I have other friends that offer me drinks of their special home made beer, not in glasses at oda times, but bottles and bottles. In their case it is mistaken kind- ness, because I am not looking for fattening drinks. I have friends that listen to my singing, and give me applause. I have friends that stand for my golf and my bridge. I have friends all over, and at the most unex- pected times, and in the most odd places, but I think the best friends recently, were four that joined me shooting, effacing themselves to my enhancement. There were five of us, includ- ing our host at the Manitou. You know where that is. I go on with my story. 'We left Dryden on a drear and drizzly day. Near winter weather, some snow on the ground, some ice in the creeks, some sleet in the air, and the whole climaxing to temperamen- tal misery. Came the six mile portage, and no team. Would I wait for the horses, or should I walk? I walked, if you call it that. | rather prefer to call it flounder- ing and sliding. After four miles I gave up the ghost, fit- tingly near the old cemetery. 1 was carried in on a shutter. Well not a shutter but something like it, an old door. Passing over the interval of supper and of sleep, came the morning with its wind and wet. I had forgotten my lassitude,! a polite word for being down and out. I was game to hunt the game. f Before nightfall, corpses were all that were left of two fine! deer. All of my friends had: participated. I was the lonely and unlucky buck. Did my friends chuckle at my misfortune, my wunskill? Not they. During the night, while I slept the sleep of the wretch- | ed, they planned, for how could; the ending be as it was, other- wise. The next morning the sun: rose in its usual place, the wind went down, and dry: and lovely was the day. I fain (archaic) would tell you of the islands we beat, and of the shores we searched, all without avail until lunch time. I see now that this was in the plan. I know now that I was to be tutored in despondency, in order that the triumph might be greater. Came the afternoon, I was posted in place, with all the honours of the King of Siam. Everyone departed, telling me to be of goed cheer. Perhaps an hou¥'s wait, with nerves taut and eyes keening. Then a pair of horns, a head, a body, legs and tail. After twenty years of vain hunting, my first deer. Of course, I shot him. Aim- ing at his head, I hit some other part, but anyhow, he dropped and died. Mine was the glory, the satis- faction and the glee. These friends of mine, unen- vious, unmindful of themselves, were in the plot, and in the knowledge, that a departed pros- pector, had raised and harbour- ed a tame deer on the island. Percy, for that was his name, was easily driven to his fate. Had it been a wild deer, swift running, leaping, bounding, I should have missed him. As it was, he was easy to hit as a cow Discovery of the plot has les- sened my self esteem, but it has increased my appreciation of my friends. Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven! * 0% 0% Anyhow, those of you, sharing with me the fruit of my prowess, will agree that Percy was good eating.
