They mado a queer tri the white man and the 1 times when the moon was up slory upon him, Pounce tr or the other of the two men; Great cowardice always him in the end and y om Success. Tom hunted both the cougar and the white man steadily and determinedly, because this was the deal he had made with Chatburn. Landy hunted Pounce because his depredations were spoiling his own profits, and he hunted Long Tom in self-defense. And it was not thru| any qualm of pity that he held his} fire one breathless twilight when he! saw the Indian's form along his mights. The cause was not greatly different than that which checked| the puma’s spring—because in his| wicked heart he was afraid. Ho had| met the law once before. | Tom set cunning traps, and ho laid ‘ut polson, and he watched with the Pationce of a cat Itself the deer-licks | and drinking“pools; but never a great | cougar with a scarred scalp came to/ his ambush. It was true that ho| earned his pay. He caught many| lynx, and once or twice he found| lesser cougars, desperate and ready to fight in his traps. And before the| summer was done, Long Tom came the conclusion that both the great eat and the human deer-slayer were too much for him. It would be only the blindest chance, he thought, that | could throw either one of them into his path. | When, finally, a chance did come, | one late afternoon in August, he let It slip out of his grasp. For the past few weeks he had been making his base-camp in a log cabin at the end| ‘of the wagon-road—a strongly built hhut that had once been the property | of @ miner or trapper. It had been an arduous day, and he forgot to stalk: thus his step was heavy on Cpa His rifle lay carcless-| ip hisarms, For a single moment! he was not earning the wage that| Chatburn promised, | ‘There was a sudaen rush—a steak| of light that sprang from the yawn-| ing doorway of the cabin into the shelter of the thickets just in front. | The rifle leaped in Tom's arms,| Bleaming steel itself, but thero was no time for the keen biack eyes to lower to the sights. Only the rustling of brush showed where the prey had gone. Evidently his own heavy step on the trail had alarmed the beast almost the moment of its arrival; for it had done nothing more than pull earcass of venison down from the| ary cougar ‘Wise cougars ordinarily avoid the eabitis of men, particularly when they hhaye once been frightened away.

And many had to have new arms and legs and even heads, to say nothing of plugs of wood or tin wheré bullet holes showed. The last battle, had been a fierce one and hardly anyome escaped, So the Tinker Man, assisted by the Twins, went right to work in hia hospital at once. One by one the soldiers were fin- ished, quite as nice a» new, and laid in neat rows in big cardboard boxes with bright letters on top, “Now watch and see what 1 am going to do next,” said the Tinker Man, “so that there will be no more war in Bing-Bang Land this year, treaties or no peace treaties.” He went to his cupboard and brought out a big ball of strong twits and wrapped each box around around and around, tying the pe in hard knots. y "If 1 hid thought shout doing before, there would have been ‘tapped and soldered and rcrewed un: ‘guards to activity as nature ever hit upon—| and it can be sqid for Landy. that} he made the most of it.

Tho cougar found need for all his mighty strength before this hated prey would lie stl Indeed, it was as good hunting as these two killers could ask for—and the best of it was they could hurt no one but each other. They fought a great fight in the| close darkness, claws and fangs, wrenching. muscles and surging shoulders, and the cruel knife drink- | ling blood. It was true that some of Long Tom's best furniture was brok- en to kindling and his device for jclosing the door irremediably ruined. The noise of conflict disturbed the little forest people scurrying on the hil. But even this coased after a time, and the silence came creeping back. Outside, the forest, things waited for the victor to reappear. But after a slowly passing hour, both contestants still lingered in the dark- ened cabin. Finally, a gophor, who couldn't see clearly at a distance with hia half- blind eyes, crept near and peered in the moonlit doorway. ‘Then he | scampered swiftly back to his people with the word that Pounce and Lan- dy had indeed made truce.
