both young women. They have a snug
little farm in there, and keep few cat

that line was a yoke of steers. One day
McDonald was obliged to go to one of
the settlement several miles away, and
his business was ts k-nji him ow night
His wife and suiter wore left alone to
look after thing daring his absence.
Just before dark a great hollowing wai
heard among the cattle in the barnyard.
The sounds were of such an nnusual
char actor that the two women became
satisfied that they were cries of terror.
Mrs. McDonald, armed with a pitchfork,
and her sister, carrying an ax, hurried
to the barnyard. "
"There they found an enormous bear,
standing defiantly between the proetrate
bodies of the two stwrs, each of which
be had felled to the ground and killed.
The other cattle were huddled in terror
in a corner of the yard. The bear
growled and snarled and showed his
t"eth as the women approached, but, iu
spite of his terrible front and threaten
ing attitude, the sight of the steers lying
dead on the ground was more than the
plucky young women could stand, and
they rushed with desperate intent ou the
snarling bear.

"Mrs. McDonald charged with her
pitchfork and thrust iU sharp, long tine
deep into the bear's neck. The bear
gave a howl of pain, and striking the
handle of the pitchfork a powerful blow
with one forepaw he wrenched it from
Mrs. McDonald's hand and sent it fly'
ing acres tne barnyard. While the bntr
was doing that Mis McDonald pitched
into him with tho ax, and at the first
blow disabled one of his terriblo foreleg.
The Wf tnmod on her and she rained
blows thick and fast upon him as she
backed slowly awny. Mrs. McDonald
quickly regained poHWwBion of the pitch

"Iietween the attacks of the two de

effort to ewapo from the field, but the
women pnawd him too cltwely. The
battlo was not of long duration, for the

aud the dwp and painful stubs inflicted
by Mrs. McDonald with her pitchfork
soon hail their effect on the bear, big
and tough as he was, and in tun uiinntes

People living' in apartment costing' a

This framework can hold three bath
tubs. They are made entirely of copper
and are about S feet long, 20 inches deep

headed and Wears a blouse. On eack
side of him an iron ring encircle a cop

gallons of hot water, wuicb rests on
little shelf. lie also carries a supply of
dry towels and sheets. The bathing es
tablishments have these curts, and when
a patron semis word that he wants a hot
bath at a certain hour the bath is put on
the cart, the kettle filled with hot water,
and the cart with its strange load is
rapidly driven to the building in which
the apartment is. '
The driver carries the bathtub, as an
