Elsewhere the distance to the Juncle was nearly twice as far. Blake dropped the hag and his wutpons, flung down his hat and started up a palm shaft. The bristles of his Bkln troiiHPrs aided his grip. Though the lofty crown of the palm was swaying In the wind he reached the top and was down again before Miss Ixlle had arranged the contents of the lunch bag. "Guess' vou're not extra hungry," he remitted. She mude no responne. "Mad. eh? Well, toss me the little knife. Mine has got too good a meat-edgto spojl on these hunks."

He caught his hat, which was dragging past in a downward eddy of the wind, and weighted it with a cocoa-nu- t He wedged another nut between his knees and bent over it, tearing at the husk. It took him only a few moments to strip the fiber from the end and gouge open the germ hole. He held out the nut and glanced up to meet her smile of acceptance.

"Snake? that far off?" "No, no! a monster a huge, fierce beast!" "Beast?" echoed Blake, grasping his bow and arrows. "Where is he? Maybe only one of these African buffaloes. How'd he look? horns?" 'T I didn't see any. It was all shaggy, and yellow like the grass, and terrible eyes Oh!" The girl's scream was met by a ferocious, snarling roar, so deep and prolonged that the air quivered and the very ground seemed to shake. "God! a lion!" cried Blake, the hair on his bare head bristling like a startled animal's. He turned squarely about toward the ridge, his bow half drawn. Had the lion shown himself then Blake would have shot on the Instant. As It was. the beast remnlnod behind the screening border of grass, where he could watch his Intended quarry wiih-ou- t being seen In turn. The delay gave Blake time for reflection. He spoke sharply, as It were biting off his words: "Hit out. I'll stop the bluffer." "I can't Oh. I'm afraid!" Again the hidden beast gave voice to his mighty rumbling .challenge. Still he did not appear, and Blake attempted a derisive Jeer: "Hey, there, louder! We've not run yel ! It's all right. little woman. The skulking sneak is trying to bluff us.
