With a glad cry she answered him, afd in the deepening | gloom he saw her hurrying in the same | direction. “What is it, Mary?” he cried, as she came nearer, “The children are gone, and I cannot find them,” she answered. “I have gone all about the clearing, but they are not here, I have called to them over and over again, but received no answer ex- cept the echoes until I heard your voice.” “Where can they have gone?” “I know not, but I fear some harm has come to them.” “When did you see them last?” “It must have been more than an hour ago. I was so busy at work that I did not miss them until a short time ago.” “What can have become of them?” “I don’t know, but I am almost afraid that they have tried to follow you.” He gave a great start at these words of his wife, for he suddenly rememb the tracks he had seen in the sand. What if they had wandered up along the stream, and the panther should discover them? 7 The thought sent a thrill of terror to his heart, and his limbs trembled from the agitation that shook hisframe. But it lasted only for a moment, and then he recovered his self-possession. Rushing into the cabin, he took down his rifle and was out again beside his wife in almost a moment's time. “Which way shall we go?” she said. “Up the branch; they must have gone that way. Robert wanted to go with me when I started out.” “And he wanted to follow you some time after you had started. It must be that they have gone that way.” They hurried away toward the bank of the stream, where the darkness lay thick beneath the thick branches of the overhanging trees. There upon the sand they sought for the footprints of the missing ones, but the gloom was so great that they could distinguish noth- ing. In alittle time, however, the moon would be shining brightly, for it was already rising above the tree tops. They called aloud, but the echoes were the only answer that came back save the sound of the dashing water. On they hurried along the rough, un- even way. At last they saw before them a patch of bright moonlight lying on the sand, where it came down through a rift in the foliage. Here, alongside of his own, the father saw the footsteps of his children in the sand, They were on the right trail thea. Would Heaven save them from danger till they could clasp them in their arms? Only a moment did they stop to exam- ine the footprints, and then they hurried onward, Even now the panther might be watching them, catlike, or feasting off their flesh. The thought filled them with horror, and faster they went, clam- bering over huge bowlders or hurrying along the sand, seeking eagerly for the lost ones, More than once they cast a troubled look toward some dark pool. as though they half expected they might be buried in its waters. At last they were close upon the spot where he had seen the tracks of the panther. Before them was a ledge of granite, which came down close to the water's edge. The moonlight lay along its face and rested at its foot, where was heaped a pile of dead forest trees. Both the parents uttered a cry of joy, for here, nestled in each other’s arms, they beheld their lost ones. Calling them by name, the mother sprang forward, but suddenly arrested her steps, with a cry ‘of terror upon her lips. The fierce growl of a pan- ther fell upon their ears. Glancing toward the summit of the cliff, they saw the huge brute prepared to spring upon the helpless children. There was not an instant ‘to lose. With the rapidity of thought Elias Towle brought his rifie to his shoulder and fired. There was a wild shriek, and the panther sprang high in the air and fell at their feet. There was a fierce struggle for a moment, and then he lay outstretched—dead. With a glad cry he mother sprang forward and clasped her children in her arms, with grateful thanks to Heaven that they were saved. me panther was skinned and its hide and ever kept after as an heirloom in the family.—N.
