The beead etofte utéle bousebold wua stalwart Iriduenn, a man abeolutely Inteont feui-and il waa but naturel tbat bis only ehild, a son, sbonld pesses the saine bravery. Tea Brady fromib te fit-st was a fear- les& young rover ef lbe woods, and gun in band he was ofteu tic be seen in Ibe for- est, either in seat-ch cf gaine or setting trepa for the enaller animais that ebound ed n the looality. During on. cf these excursions into the bey had the fortune te capture e very email bear cub, which ho carriod homo without trouble. He raised the cub by band, and had a good deal of fun with hiru as h. grow oldor. At lest he becamne the pot cf the hohsshold, and often ho would fdlow Ted into the forest. At the approach of night, ne matter where Jack was, ho wonld tut-n hie face towar the cabin end in one corner cf it was dère te flnd e sleeping place tili morning. Witb the uprising cf the Indians, led by Pomitiac, the Ottawa chiof, one cf the bravest and most relentiess Indians of bis day, the whole frontier passod from the sunshine cf peace into the ahadaw cf war. l'est after post foul befere the stratogy cf thie mcd king of the foreet, and at last net one of the mauy forts along the lakes, with tbe single exception cf De- troit, flew the British fiag. Iu consequeuco of the war the fron ier cf Peunsylvania wes in danger cf the tomahawk, and the bot-dors of Virginia and Maryland were threatened. The Brady's heard cf the cemiug storm some time before it reached theen. It was reported that Indian spios were abread in the land, spying eut the weak nesses cf the settlement8 preparatory te a swoop upen theru, and eue day several were seon in the viciuity of the Brady cabin. Ted bad boon tappiug aieng a littie streemn neat- home for somo time. The boy, whe was atout and quick for his 16 yoars, though net very large, had bo- come au expert in trappiug the fur bear ing animais cf foregt and stream, and hip stock cf fut-swus known to e hotie best and meet valuable cf eny in the ueigh. borhood. On some cf hie visite to the t-eps Jacki, the bear, went along with bien, but f:r the encet part the animal weut wbere he * pleased, and Ted did net see mnch cf Michael Brady, the father, thonght that the whele frentier shocld be made acquaiuted with the true situation t-e- garding the indien upmising, and s h had picked up a geod deel cf reliable lu- fot-matiJn ho deemed it hie dnîy te spread the news. Therofore ho set eut on bis mission eue day mntending te be gone noarly e week. " Waeh the bouse well,"- said lho, Knew evet-ything that appt-caches it, and on ne occasion open the door te anybody but Jack." "That's protty sweeping, fathor," said Ted, looking np from the trep he was mending on the floot-. -I know il is, and I want my instrue tions cet-t-ed ont te the lettet-. These Indiana are the meat cunnîng fellows on etl, and they will play ail soi-t ocf thera te, a new trepping ground and ho thought best te take anothei- look before leeving theen for the night. The night pt-omised te hbave the ligbt cf the full moon. The sky was porfoctly clear, and the ctisp beavesi hal litterod the gvound gave forth musical sounds as they creckled underneatb the boy's feet That very day Ted had taken the rifle aperste give it a thorough cverhanling, and every par-t had been inspect.ed and eiled. With the weepon slung over bis ahoulder the Irish boy lvenpedl threugh the weods, found the Irape a il righl, and, after seoing th'it the triggers were well set, tumned and - began th. hemewerd trip. By tbis lime the sun bed gene down and the long shedewe cf dusk were fâel- ling between the t-e. Over lbe bili on hiestight t-ose the full et-bcd moon, and more then once Ted stepped and walched il in its stately ascent. But b. wus expeoted home by his mother before night came fairly ou, and thinking of the Indians h. quickened hie geit and t-an nimbly over the tail. Be bad roached ae utIle stream near the cabin and had set his foot ou lie foot log for the put-pose cf orossing it, when ho ceughl siçit of somelhiug meviug te- werd te cabin.

" The boy's own tought slat$ed him. He wu net close enough to Rot a very gocQ1 look st th. animal, and in eider se do se ho crawled alona the groand te an. other tres from behind wbioh be took another look. By this tie. the bear had dropp.d te the ground again, and al et once Ted saw that it had a cut e, wbioh was juat what Jack bad for three years. Oncè more Ted was in the &et of whist- ling to hie pet, when the animal etarted towarde thbe bouse on aIl fours, running over the ground ini a manner net exaetly in accordance with the locomotion of beare, but flot very unlike eitber. 111 neyer saw Jack run that way be- fôre," cried the boy as he bounded on. "Hle is heading for home and will beat me there if 1 don't make better tirne. Maybo Jack has been wounded, the boys clown on the creek shot at him twice lut summer, and-" Ted stopped, for once more the bear had cheoked his course and was maoving across the clearing toward the littls caben in one of whose little windows Mrm. Brady ha4 set a light. Ted watched the bear movingz over the stumpy clearing with bis bead pointinR toward the shanty, but aIl at once he saw more than thiio. That which he saw was enough to thrill bien as he had neyer been thrilled before. It wau nothing less than a moc- casin, where one of the hind feet of the supposed bear should have been, and the more ho looked the surer ho was of this. Mll was plain now. The akin bqfore him was Jack's, but an Indian was inside it, and, of course, for sonie diabolical purpose. Well did the red man know that he coud nover get beyond the door of the Brady cabin in bis own dre8s ; therefore, probably knowing sometbing about the boy settlers pot, ho had killed Jack In the forest and had undertaken this strat- ageen to carry out hi& evil deeign8. Ted knew that if hie mother abonld soe the supposed Jack ini the clearing, she would hasten to opan the door to hum, without suspeo'ing anything wrong, and when he thought of the poril that menacod ber beo ould hardly supprese a cry. Meanwhile the Indian muet have been congratulating hiruseif on the success of the trick. He had not seco the boy in the rear, and now, with but a few yards botweeD bien and bis victime, he Iooked upon bis viotory as certain. The Irish boy had reachod the fringe of the Clearing, and in the brilliant moon- light. ho saw the object that moved across it. Not a moment was to ho lost ; yet a shot muet tell, for if thrown away, the young marksman would have upon hiru one of the dread scout-gos of the frontier, and ho might be the firet victien of sav ago fury in that locality. As the boy trappors rifle touchod hie shoulder, the cabin door opened, and ho eaught sight of hie mother. St had opened the door for t'Jack," and the redskin had only te sprîng np anud with a bound carry himaeli beyond the thresbold. Controlling hie net-vos witb the cool. ness of an old marksman, Ted eovered Dead ln the moonlight lay the scarlet tricker of the frentier, and when Ted pniled the bearBkin from him be sew the painted face and the weapons of the war- path that ho carricd in hie belt'. After a while mother and son dragged the body te a secluded spot behind the cabin. There a grave wua made, and in it they placed the oe eof oe e ldian wbo would nover return te follow Pon- tiec acrois the frontiers.
