'( T HEAR the Charlemagne Tower Juniors
'have taken a house on Manheim
itreet, in Germantown. You remember
young Tower, who is the eldest son of
Mr. and Mrs. Charlemagne Tower, was
married to Barbara Rupley, of Duluth,
Itlnn., last January. Charlemagne, Jr.,
tent out to Duluth shortly after his sis
ter Gertrude's tragic death last year and
Bud In that city for some time, and was
connected with tho Pennsylvania Rail-
i road. His family were very much pleased
with the marriage, for Barbara Is a most
attractive girl and bids fair to be a very
I popular member of Philadelphia society.
Mr. Tower Senior, you, of course, re
member was Ambassador to Germany for
l number of years. When they returned
to this country some six or seven years
to, they bought tho house which was
formerly owned by Clement Newbold,
next door to the Joe Leldys, on Locust
treet, and lived there until Gertrude's
death. They then moved to the Bellevue,
Jio traveled through the West last win
ter alter going to Duluth to attend Char
lemagne Junior's wedding.
Mrs. Tower Junior Is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. George Itupley, of Duluth,

row, who, if memory serves me right,
attended her as matron of honor, at the
wedding.

THE condensed milk was tho one biggest
factor In the olvlllzliiR of Muskwa It
was the missing link that connected certain
things In his lively llttlo mind He knew
that the lunm hand that had touched Itlm
e gentlv had also placed thl strange nnd
wonderful feast at the foot of his tree, and
that tame band bad also offered blm meat
Ho did not eat the meat, but ho licked
the interior of tho basin until It shone
like a minor In the starlight.
In spite of the milk, be wns ktlll filled
with a deslie to escape, though bin efforttt

they had been Experience had taught him
that It wan futile to Jump and tug nt the

he would prnli ibly b.ie won freedom be
fore morning but v. ben his jaws beenme

work It was usually at n fresh placo In tho
rope By midnight his gums were fcoie,
and he gavo up his eeitlons entirely.
Humped closo to tin tree, ready to climb
up It at the first Blgii of danger, the cub
waited for morning Not n wink did he
sleep Even though he was less afraid
than lie hud been, lie was terribly lone
home. He mled Thor, and he whimpered
so softly that the men a few yards away
could not have heard him had they been
awake If Plpoonaskoos bad lomo Into the
camp then ho would have welcomed him
Jo) fully.
Morning came, and Metoosln was the
first out of his blankets. He built a fire,
and this roused liruce and Langdon The
latter, after ho had dressed himself, paid a
visit to Muskwa. and when be found the
basin licked clean he showed his pleasure
by calling the others attention to what
had happened
Muskwa had climbed to his crotch In
tho treo. and again he tolerated tho strok
ing touch of Langdon'H hand Then Lang
don brought forth another can from a cow
hide pannier and opened it directly under
Muskwa. so that he could see the creamy
white fluid ai It was turned into the basin.
He held the baMn up to MURkwn, so close
that the milk touched the cub's nose, and
for the life of him Muskwa could not keep
his tongue In his mouth
Inside of five minutes he was eating
from the basin In Langdon's hand But
when Bruce came up to watch the proceed
ings the cub bared all his teeth and snarled
"Bears make better pets than dogs," af
firmed Bruce a little later, when they were
eating breakfast "Hell be following you
around like a puppv In a few davs, Jimmy"
"I'm getting fond of the little cuss al

"Jameson lived up In the Kootenay coun

loved bears, an' he'd never kill one"
Langdon was silent After a moment he
said
"And I'm beginning to love them, Bruce
I don't know Just why, but there's tome
thing about bears that makes you love
them I'm not going to shoot many more
perhaps none after we get this dog-killer
we're after I almost believe he will be
my last bear" Suddenly he clenched his
hands, and added angrily: "And to think
there Isn t a province In tho Dominion or
a State south of the border that has a
closed season for bear. It's an outrage.
Brucs Thej're classed with vermin, and
can be exterminated at alt seasons They
can even be dug out of their dens with their
young and so help me Heaven' I've
helped to dig them out ! We re beasts.
Bruce Sometimes 1 almost think It's a
crime for a man to carry a gun And yet
I go on killing"
"It's in our blood." laughed Bruce, un
moved "Did you ever know a man. Jimmy,
that didn't like to see things die' Wouldn't
every mother's soul of 'em go to a hanging
If they had the chance? Won't they crowd
like buzzards round a dead horse to get a
look at a man crushed to a pulp under a
rock or a locomotive engine? Why. Jim
my, if there weren't no law to bo afraid of,
we humans'd bo killing one another for the
fun of It ' Wo would. It's born In us to
want to kill "
"And we take it all out on brute crea
tion," mused Langdon "After all,,we can't
have much sympathy for ourselves If a gen
eration or two of us are killed In war. can
we? Mebby jou're right. Bruce Inasmuch
as we can't kill our neighbors legally when
ever we have the Inclination. It's possible
the Chief Arbiter of things sends us a war
now and then to relieve us temporarily ot
our bloodthlrstlness Hello, what In thun
der Is the cub up to now?"
Muskwa had fallen the wrong way out
of his crotch and was dangling like the
victim at the end of a hangman's rope
Langdon ran to hlm. caught him boldly in
his' bare hands, lifted him up over the limb
and 'placed him on the ground Muskwa
did not snap at him or even growl.
Bruce and Metoosln werii aw.y from
camp all of that day. spying over the range
to the westward, and Langdon wis left
to doctor a knee which he had battered
against a rock the previous day. H spent
most of hla time In company with Muskwa,
He opened a can of their griddle-cake
syrup and by noon he had the cub follow
ing, him about the trey and straining to

and Muskwa would climb half over his lap
to reach the syrup
At Ills present are Muslcwn's affection
and confidence weic easily won A baby
black bear l very much like a human babv
he likes milk, he loves sweet things, and
he wants to cuddle up close to any living
thing that is good to him He Is the most
lovable creature on four legs round nnd
soft nnd fluffy, and so funny that he Is sure
to keep every one about hlm In good humor
More than onco that dav Langdon laugheit
until t, tears came and especially when
Muskv made determined efforts to climb
up his Ii . to reach the dish of srup
As for Mutkun. he ld gono siip mad
He could not remember that his mother
had ever given him anything like It. nnd
i nor nan procured nothing better than fish
Late In the afternoon Langdon untied
Muskvva'H lope and led hlm for a stroll
down toward the creek He carried the
svrup dlh and everj few yards he would
pause and let tho cub have a taste of Its
contents After half a hour of this maneu
vering ho dropped his end of the leash en
tirely and walked campward And Muskwa
followed It was a triumph and In Lang
don's veins theie pulsed a plcasuiabte thrill
which his llfo In tho open had never brought
to him before
It was late when Metoosln returned, nnrt
be was quite surprised that Bruce had not
shown up Darkness came, and they built
up the fire They were finishing supper un
hour later when Bruce came In. carrying
something swung over his shoulder He
tossed It close to where Muskwa was hid

"A skin like velvet nnd some meat for
the dogs," he said "I shot It with my
pistol "
ne sai novvn and began eating After a
little Muskwa cautiously approached the
carcass that lay doubled up three or four
feet from him He smelled of It. and a
curious thrill shot through him Then he
whimpered softly ns he muzzled the soft fur.
still warm with life And for a time after
thnt he wns very still
Tor the thing that Rruce had brought Into
camp and flung at the foot of his tree was
the dead body of little Plpoonaskoos'
CIIAPTKK XVI
THAT night the big loneliness returned
to Muskwa Bruce and Metoosln were
so tired after their hard climb over the
range that they went to bed early nnd
Langdon followed them, leaving Plpoonas
koos where Bruce had first thrown him
Scarcely a move had Muskwa made after
the discovery that had set his heart beating
a little faster He did not know what
death was. or what It meant, and as
Plpoonaskoos was so warm and soft he was
sure that he would move after a little He
had no Inclination to fight him now.
Again It grew verv. very still, nnd the
stars filled the sky and the fire burned low
But Plpoonaskoos did not move Gentlv nt
first Muskwa began nosing hlm and pulling
at his silken hair, nnd as he did this he
whimpered softly, as If saying. "I don't
want to fight you any more, Plpoonaskoos!
Wake up and let's be friends!"
Hut still Plpoonaskoos did not stir, and
at last Muskwa gave up all hope of waking
him And still whimpering to his fat little
enemy of the green meadow how sorry
he was that he had chased him, he snug
gled close up to Plpoonaskoos and In time
went to sleep
Langdon was first up In the morning,
and when he came over to see how Muskwa
had fared during the night ho suddenly
stopped, and for a full minute he stood
without moving, and then a low, strane
cry broke from his lips For Muskwa and
Plpoonaskoos were snuggled as closely as
they could have snuggled had both been
living, and In some way Muskwa had ar
ranged it so that one of the dead cub's
little paws was embracing him
Quietly Langdon returned to where Bruce
was sleeping and In a minute or two Bruce
returned with him rubbing his eyes And
then he, too, stared, and the men looked
at each other
"Dog meat." breathed Langdon. "You
brought It home for dog meat. Bruce'"
Bruce did not answer. Langdon said noth
ing more, and neither talked very much
for a full hour after that During that hour
Metoosln came and dragged Plpoonaskoo.i
away, nnd Instead of being skinned and
fed to the dogs he was put Into a hole down
In the creek-bottom and covered with sand
and stones. Thnt much, at least. Bruce
nnd Langdon did for Plpoonaskoos.
This day Metoosln and Bruce again went
over the range The mountaineer had
brought back with him bits of quartz In
which were unmistakable signs of gold.
and they returned with an outfit for pan

wa Several times he took the cub near
the dogs, and when they snarled and
strained at the ends of their lashes he
whipped them, until with quick understand

In the afternoon ef this second dsy he
freed the cub entirely from the rope, and
he had no difficulty in recapturlm It when
he wanted to tie it up again The third
and fourth days Bruce and the Indian
explored the valley wet of the range and
convinced themselves finally that the "col

flood-drifts, and would not lead to fortune.
On this fourth night, which happened to
be thick with clouds and chilly. Langdon
experimented by taking Muskwa to bed
with him. He expected trouble. But Musk,
