Donald Saunders had his first great
adventure up In the Long's Peak
country, a region famous throughout
Colorado for heavy snows and ava
lanches. .Donald canto over from Don
vor, aftor graduating from high school,
to spend tlto summer with Sumptcr
Saunders, his father's youngest broth
er. Sumptcr was a very young undo,
Indeed, being but 27 and not vory
long out of college, whllo Donald was
19. "Vnclo Sump" was a big-boned,
strapping fellow who had played cen
ter In his college football team, a man
with laughing bluo eyes and "teas
ing" ways but entertaining serious
dreams of owning a great ntlno, If
strength and pluck and persistence
would bring ono to light. Ho was run
ning a tunnel on what ho believed to
bo an excellent gold-bearing prospect,
up In tlto Long's Peak country. Don
ald went out to holp him. The tall
boy had notions of bocomlng a min
ing engineer, and hero was cxperionco
that might provo of valuo when he
heuld be ready to enter a technical
school. $
Tho world is very much In'confuston
up In that country, tho earth having
been flung&ubout at all sorts uf
angles, heaped and ragged and
tumbled. Streams sprawl In foamy
Donald's Gray Eyes Dilated with Sud
den Fear and Horror.
abandon through the canyons and the
clumps of pines on tho soaring steeps
sing cheorlly In tho wind and sun.
Donald found It all qulto magical.
Ho bad purposod returning homo
to Denvor in tho autumn, but Sumptcr
having offered htm an Interest in the
mine, should they succeed In striking
quartz, ho concluded to remain at
least until Christmas. Donald's fa
ther, knowing tho valuo of practical
experience, thought it qulto an well
that his Bon should stay and rough it
for awhile.
Thero wero deer and bear and
mountain grouse in that lifted, broken
region, but tho two young fellows had
llttlo time for hunting them, being
Intent on driving tho tunnel as rap
Idly and with as llttlo delay and ox
penso as possible. Sumpter had built
a cabin close against tlto- baso of a
perpendicular wall of rock at tho side
of the oanyon In which his claim lay.
In this cabin they lived very snugly,
going down to Ward occasionally to
bring up supplies. Donald had come
up to that country ovor a llttlo rail
road that runs from Boulder to Ward,
a bit of track upon which tho snow
rotary plows aro busy moBt of tho
winter. , ,,
Towards Christmas tho young min
ers began to grow a bit lonesome and
restless; thoy especially grew weary
of ham and tinned meats and longed
for venison, boar, beef, or almost any
sort of flesh food that was fresh.
Snow was heavy on tho mountains
and they could get about but llttlo
savo upon snowshoes. Donald wished
very ardently that he might go homo
for Christmas but made up his mind
that to leavo Sumptor In that white,
lonely world would bo selfish and
cowardly, so ho remained.
Christmas morning Donald put on
his snowsboos and, flinging Sumpter's
rlfltf-ftcrosB his shoulder, ho declared
ho was going to look for fresh meat.
His undo laughed at him but tho
hardy Scotch youth was resolute.
"An old huntor," ho said, "told me
at tho hotel down In Ward, tho last
tlrao I was down, that a lot of doer
wintered In tho big thickets Just
back of us hero; ho said thoy were
hard to got at but ho'd found them
thero twice. I'm going up to see."
Sumptor acsontcd reluctantly, caution
ing his nephew not to go too far away.
Tho day was soft and mild, the
whlto world all agleam with sunshine.
Donald put on a pair of smoked
glasses and started up tlto canyon. A
half mlto away he found a llttlo
"draw," up tho slopo of which ho
climbed until ho came out upon tho
gleaming sldo of tho mountain;
thenco ho made his way slowly west
ward, passing around upheaving
mauBs of dark stonw, across slopes
that wero smooth ns white satin, and,
still further up tho mountain side,
found llttlo hollows, evidently lined
with brush but now filled with straw,
simply big, glistening dimples In the
mountain's fat face; but ho saw no
doer.
Finally, being weary of laboring
through what was vory much llko an
Inflnlto bed of glittering down, ho
reached a point on tho steep Blopo
apparently a quarter of a mllo or so
directly north of the cabin. As ho
stood thero dobatlng It ho Bhould
return to tho "draw" or attempt to
find a more direct route to tho floor
of tho gulch, he suddenly felt himself
movlug. Ills first thought was that
an earthquake was swaying tho
mountnln or that ho himself had boon
Eclzcd with vertigo. Then with a wild
thrill ho perceived that a strip of
snow 200 feet wldo and perhaps 500
feet In length was moving down tho
mountain sldo!
Donald's gray eyes dilated with sud
den fenr and horror. Ho was thrown
headlong in tho snow, hearing as ho
fell tho crunch of stones that wero
being ripped out of their beds and tho
crash and rending of stumps and
roots as they parted from tholr sock
ets in tho earth. With every pulse
leaping In alarm ho got to his feot,
toppling and reeling and shouting for
aid as ho glanced about him. Tho
next Instant ho was again thrown
headlong. Ho was upon tho back of
a steed beside which tho fabled Horso
of Death was as an Insect. Something
went tht'ough his brain llko a sheet
of flame, In It n picture of Sumptor
sitting by tho open flro of plno logs
down In tho cabin, a book In his hand,
undreaming of this ruthless monster
rushing down to crush him.
Tho next moment Donald was again
upon his feet, pitching and clutching
at tho air and shouting. In that mo
ment ho Baw a vory amazing thing,
though everything was both amazing
and not amazing as In somo sort of In
descrlbablo dream. A hundred feet
to tho rear of him, almost at tho up
per tip of tho avalanche, ho saw a
bear rolling and tossing on tho hurl
ing mass. Thrown out of its hibernat
ing bed among tho rocks or decaying
tree-roots, tho animal was pitching
about, now upon Its feet then upon its
back, helpless as a fly upon an ocean
surge. Donald never knew why, but
ho shouted at tho bear, und ho never
could recall afterwards exactly what
It was ho shouted. He says now that
he thinks ho commanded tho bear
not to roll down upon him, which was
certainly absurd.
In his mind were many glancing
thoughts. In such moments tho men
tality of man sometimes seems as a
diamond with many facets. Ho
thought of tho Christmas tree to bo
lighted In tho parlor at homo In Den
ver, of how tired ho was of corned
boef, of where thoy would bury him
when they took him crushed and dead
from tho snow at tho bottom of tho
gulch, whether or not his school fel
Iowb If th.oy now saw him would
shout "Slide, Donald, slide!" as they
used to when ho was running tho
bases when playing ball, and many
other things, all, seemingly, in a
single moment.
It must have bocn a very short
period in which ho was leaping and
tumbling and whirling about on tho
mighty toboggan, for the avalanche
ran down tho mountain sldo like a
swiftly hurrying snake, savo that its
undulations wero up and down instead
of sldowlso as with a serpent. It
seomed to Donald he had scarcely
drawn six breaths beforo tho snow
slide shot from the' precipice above tho
cabin. Swift as was his flight ho was
conscious that the slide had leaped
from the canyon wall, for throughout
a few seconds there was no noise and
he seemed being borno upon a bed of
feathers through spaco, then there was
a roar as of muffled thunder and ho
was wallowing deep In snow.
The mental picturo that had flashed
through Donald's mind of his young
undo sitting by tho Arc engrossed In
a printed romance, had been truo to
the fact. Sumpter had awakened to
tho coming of tho avalanche only
when It neared tho brink of tho wall,
70 feot above tho cabin. His book
dropped from his hand and ho made a
leap for tho door. Tho next moment a
bear crashed through tho root and
smote tho floor la front of tho fire,
leaving the luckless animal lifeless.
Sumpter's faco blanched as he stared
at tho strange object, then ho thought
of Donald and hurriedly pushed his
way out of tho door. Tho snow about
tho cabin was up to hs neck and tho
roof was plied deep with It, but tho
bulk of tho Blldo had leaped clear over
tho llttlo houso, heaping the bottom
pf tho gulch to the opposite wall, somo
GOO feet away. Tlto bear had dropped
from tho tall of this rushing mass di
rectly upon tho cabin.
When Sumpter had got his fright
oned nephow out of tho smother of
stuff in which he was floundering, tho
two young fellows stood with palo
faces staring at each other for a little
space, then both, seeing what they
had escaped, laughed joyously.
"Come Into tho cabin," Bald Sump
tor, "wo will have broiled bear steak
for Christmas dinner! Too many
Bnowslldes around hero now; to-morrow
wo will pull out for Denver. In
tho spring wo will como back and
tunnel until wo atrllco tho vein."
All of which camo truo.

Lessons from
the Christmas
Woman
By MARGARET SPENCER
THLL you wo ought
to cut It out tills year,"
Bald tho hurd-up hus
band. Tho ChrlstmaB wom
an put both hands on
his shoulders. "Wo
can't cut out Christ
mas, dear," she told him,
Btitly. "lint that five
dollars which my broth
er gave mo on my
birthday Is going to
cover every cent I
spend. They'll bo just
little remembrances."
"That'B It," ho an
b w o r e d, Impatiently.
"You'll keep It up, ono
way or another, and at tho last ntln
uto I'll' feel mean If I don't got Into
the gnmo and squander u lot of money
on presents."
Ho closed the door and went awny.
By tho tlnto ho had boarded tho car
for town ho knew that sho was right.
But tho Christmas woman didn't
know that ho was thinking this.
Sho was busy In her own room,
whore, on a work table, lay a white
Bhlrt walot pattern stamped with u
graceful design for embroidering. She
had bought It for CO centB, marked
down from ono dollnr becauso It was
tho last. Her plan was to transfer Its
design to other pleceB of cloth which
sho had in the house and so evolvo
three shirt waists, stamped for em
broidering, to bestow on tho three
nieces, who liked to embroider. And
ull for 150 cents!
But the ClirlstniUR woman had just
begun work, trying bravely to forget
tho hard-up husband's last words,
when sho was called downstulrB to seo
tho porfectly discouraged person,
whoso plaint was aftor this fashion:
"Oh, dear! It's nothing to mo how
many 'shopping dayfl' thero aro to
Christmas. I can't buy a thing."
"But, tny dear," sold the Christmas
woman, "think what you can make out
of that luxurious box of pieces you
showed mo tho other day!"
Thereupon she poured forth many
suggestions nbout apron and holders
and shoo bagB nnd top collars enough
to Insplro a church bazar:
"Oh, yes, but everything you make
costs a little for ribbon or something,"
tho perfectly discouraged person con
cluded, at the end of her depressing
call. "I wish Christmas waB past!"
Then sho went straight home,
pulled out her box of pieces, pondered
over the Christmas woman's sugges
tions, schemed out a plan for saving
a llttlo money here and thore, and
then fell to work on hor Christmas
presents with new courage.
But that Christmas woman didn't
know Uilu.
She was getting at her own work
again. This tlmo she worked for
fully fivo minutes undisturbed, then
another visitor claimed her this time
tho tlred-to-death woman, who couldn't
get away from her teething baby to
go shopping, or to take one stitch on
Christmas presents.
"Olvo me your list, nnd I'll shop
for you," tho Christmas woman vol
unteered. "Mercy! I couldn't, possibly tell
what I waut without seeing thingH,"
the tired-to-death woman protested.
Not until sho was well on her way
down tho street did sho reallzo that,
with a little planning, sho might shop
by proxy after all. Tho Idea, once it
had penetrated her mind, pleased her
so much that she was smiling llko a
really rested woman when she reached
home and sat down to make out her
list.
But the ChrlstmaB woman didn't
know this.
"Have I called you downstairs when
you wero doing something Impor
tant?" tho dead-broke girl was asking
of the Christmas woman by that time.
"I'm sorry If I have, but I had to toll
you my troubles. I'm in debt up to
my ears. I haven't any right to glvo
Christmas presents this year. I'm
going to bo cross until December 20."
"Ob, no!" the Christmas woman
protested. "Why, keeping chcory is
one kind of giving! And at least you
can wrlto Christmas letters."
"Why, who cares for those?" waB
tho cynical attBwer.
Yet an hour later, at hor desk, tho
dead-broko girl was buBlly writing
Christmas letters, filling them with
borrowed sweetness and humming a
happy tune as the words flowed from
hor pen.
But tho ChrlstmaB woman didn't
know this.
Sho had gone back to her room for
tho third time to find her work tablo
empty. In vain sho searched for tho
shirt-waist doth.
"Bridget," sho called at last, "have
you taken anything out of my room?"
Bridget wan washing tho windows.
"Only tho clean rags for polishln' tho
glass, mum," she answered. "You said
they'd be on your table,"
"Oh!" sho began. But at sight of
Bridget's sorry faco she caught her
self. "Never mind, Bridget," eho add
ed. "Don't fed bad about It."
"Feel bad! Mo?" echoed tho astou
lshed girl. Tho look In hor eyes was
full of admiration. "Sure, now, this Is
the first place I ever worked whoro
tho lady didn't get cross beforo Christ
mas!" This tlmo tho Christmas woman
know.
With great gladness, becauso oho
had carried tho message to ono heart,
sho said, softly:
"Oh, but, Bridget, what do thrco
llttlo presents matter? It's Joy that
'we must give I"

Boemod that thoy were not alllnttles,
after all, and llfo together was unon
durable, so tho wlfo packed up hor bo
longings nnd was preparing for a trf?

picked up their llttlo pot dog and
tucked him under her arm, whllo hor
other managed tho suit caso.
"Why, you'ro not going to take
Trlxy!" exclaimed tho husband.
"Of courso I am," sho announced. "I
couldn't ltvo without hint."
"Well, I can't let tho llttlo fellow
go," ho insisted.
"And I simply won't loave him," sho
dcclnred.
So they argued for half an hour, at
tho end of which sho decldod to stay,
and unpacked to cook dinner, at which
