Tn spite of a low grumble of dissent their watchir THE TIME SMED ENDLESS TO SIDE OF THE STILL from the crouching mother, the small lion cub wriggled mischievously out of reach of her punishment-dealing paw and Insinuated his fat young body through the leafy barrier with little velps of joy. He had already forgotten the first objects of his de- sire for movement. The shapeless fleshy nose was wrinkled upon a scent that had grown familiar but a couple of hours before.

A second later o small sister had he | danger THE EVENING gratified little growlings came upon its ears, a third fat infant tottered to the forbidden sport. And the mother, moving _sflently from bush to bush, distracted at the | which threatened her off- | spring, was declding, with _the cunning of the wild, from which point the spring she must take upon these human enemies had best come. From the moment when the scene of the tragedy had first come to their eves barely sixty seconds had passed. “Don't move™ Falrways had thrown the brief command to the girl. She had hesitated a_moment. The small opening where they stood was almost encircled in straggling bushes, any one of which might hide the thing she feared. The impulse to gn died away as she realized this, and she drew closer to the man at her side, It was from a spot barely ten yards away that the big tawny body hurtled through the air upon them. Sound- less as a streak of lightning it came straight to where Richenda stood between itself and Fairways. His gun swung up as she leaped aside with a startled scream. His bullet, hastily aimed, brought a gush of blood “across that golden hide, an agonized madness into the fury which already held the raging brute, a reverberating roar from those ter. rible open jaws. * The lioness and man were-a_tum- bling heap upon the ground—a dread- ful, bloodstained, panting, writhing mass, and—barely a moment later—a quietly trembling something that sub sided into stillness amid a rapidiy widening pool of sinister redness that spread slimily across the ground around them. Richenda, shaken from her pa- ralysis of sheer horror, shrieked till the countryside re-echoed as she cov- ered the yards to whero Jeroge was pluckily dragging the scarce dead body of the lloness from the prostrate man. The fawn babies had fled into the bushes with whines of fear. Fairways' eyes were closed, his bloodstained face ashen. From shoul- der to cuff a shirt sleeve was torn in ribbons. The blood pumped Jjetting from a slashed artery in one wrist, flooding Richenda in its stream. She was not screaming now.

Memories of things she had learned during those far-off days of war, when she worked as V. A. D. in hospitals full of bat- tered men, came back to her, The spurting artery she stopped with o hurriedly fashioned tourniquet. Rough bandages she constructed by tearing strips from the assorted garments of herself and Fiirways, by even de- manding the khakl cofton shirt from | Jeroge’s own brown back, shuddering | mentally all the while at the realiza- | tion that only the most sterile things | should be Jaid upon those open, blced- ing_wounds. Then she turned upon her anxious, willing helper. “You must go to Abmani and bring help, Jeroge.

The time seemed endless to Richen- da as she sat by the side of the still unconscious man. There was now so littls she could do but wait . . . and that very walting was purgatory itself to_her. Fairways' quiet face had fallen into the gentler lines that she had known in those brief days of courtship over a month ago. A soft half-smile sat upon his faintly parted lips.
