I came closer and closer, full of proud excitement i laughing as 1 thought of the splash Azazel would make in the river in the gorge below. 1 steadied myself with a branch or vine in the rock, and made to kick the goat down from the cliff. Then suddenly I felt in my stomach the awful blow, an_ impact which would have sent me into the gorge had it not been for the plant I was grasping. ‘That wretch of a goat, coeing himself in a corner, had com- menced the attack.

And while Azazel's horns were plowing up my sides I could hear crying: “Help! Help!” hen 1 lost all my presence of mind. That goat, with his long beard and his har sharp horns that were poundiing me—first in my chest and then in my stomach—had a_diabolical effect on me.

Rust cannot weaken the gutters, downspouts and roof flashings, because they are made of Ana- conda Copper. Rusty water cannot form in the water pipe, to stain the porcelain in kitchen and bathroom, be- cause Anaconda Brass Pipe is used, both for hot and cold water. Rust cannot weaken the door and window screens, causing them to sag, bulge and wear through, be- cause the screening is made of strong, rust-proof Anaconda Bronze Wire. Rust cannot attack the hardware, for it is solid brass and bronze. Anaconda Copper, Brass and Bronze pay for themselves because they last indefinitely, with- out any expense for paint, repair or replacement. Yet the initial cost, for the average $15,000 house, is only about $450 more than the cost of iron and steel. It will pay you to rust-proof your own house with Anaconda Metals.
