his agony, insisted npon being tied to a
bone and accompanying his friends in
search for a path to civilization. During
the ten days that followed, every step of
the hone that Wood rode caused nu

bon it like a martyr, and an occasional
groan was all the complaint that camped
his lips.

FIGHTING GRIZZLIES.
EXPERIENCES OF A MINER IN THE
JAWS OF AN ANGRY BEAR.
The coming woman
can be healthy. She will be,
if she’s wisely cared for. As
she enters womanhood, Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription
builds up and strengthens the
system and regulates and pro
motes the functions. It’s a
supporting tonic, and a quiet
ing, strengthening nervine. Ii
corrects and cures all those
delicate derangements and
weaknesses peculiar to the
sex. In evefy case for which
it’s recommended, the “ Favor
ite Prescription ” is guaranteed
to give satisfaction. If there’s
no help, there’s no pay. It
does all that’s claimed for it,
the ’ money is refunded,
a risky way to sell it—
but it isn’t your risk.
This is the way
with the Ball corset: if you
want ease and shapeliness,
you buy it—but you don’t
keep it unless you like it.
After two or three weeks’
wear, you can return it and
have your money.
Comfort isn’t all of h
though. Soft Eyelets, and
“bones” that can’t break or
kink—Ball’s conets hare
both of these.

Most Frightfully And Then Wntehed Ova:

Extinct.
The name of a well known citizen of
Humboldt county on the Rnss [louse
register u few day. ago recalled to Ills
friends the story of a desperate light
with grizzlies in the early days.
It was in the full of 18.11, and three
starving men crawled thnfngb a thick
growth of Humboldt county timber and
found themselves facing eight monstei
grizzly bears. Goaded to desperation by
hunger the men determined to attack the
ferocious unimals. The heart of Thomas
Sealning failed as the little party drew
near the bears, and he sought shelter by
climbing a tree
The other men, S. K. Wood and Isaac
Wilson, threw prudence to the winds
r.nd advanced to within fifty yards of
the bears. Wood fired his rifle anil the
nearest hear fell, biting and tearing the
ground us though in the agonies of death.
While Wood was reloading hiz rifle
Wilson brought down a bear.
Five of the grizzlies retreated up a
ravine, hut one shaggy monster remained
with her fallen companions. She sat
erect on her haunches and turned her
eyes on the men ns if daring them to
battle.
Wilson, awed by her aspect, ran for a
tree, while Wood tried to reload his gun,
bat found himself unable to rain the ball
down on the powder. While ia thih pre
dicament the grizzly thnt had not fled
rushed at him. Wood succeeded in get
ting into a small buckeye tree, and used
his gun to beat the bearclT as she at
tacked the tree with the intention of
shaking him out.
IX THE JAWS OF A ORI2ZI.V.
While he was engaged in lighting off
this l>ear. Wood, to his horror, saw the
animal he had wounded rise and rash to
ward him. No blows that he could in-
liict on the wounded animal could check
her. At the first spring she made the
treo broke r.nd the bears jumped for
Wc'od. He gained his feet und made
with all Sliced down the mountain, where
another small tree stood about thirty
yards "away. He reached the tree with
the wounded bear at his heels, and. seiz
ing the trunk, he swung his body around
so as to give tbe bear room to pass him,
which she did, plunging headlong down
the mountain about twenty yards.
Before Wood could, with bis failing
strength, swing himself into the tree the
second bear bounded np and seized his
right ankle. By this time the wounded
bear returned, and as Wood fell she
snapped at hia face. He dodged, and she
canght his left shonlder.
Then commenced a terrific straggle
The maddened animal* tugged in oppo
site directions at Wood's ankle and shonl
der, and he was in imminent danger of
being torn to pieces. He fonght as best
he oonld, but each exertion he pnt forth
only intensified the rage of the bears.
When he wee almost fainting with
pain the bear that had not been wounded
dropped his ankle and trotted slowly
after his companions np tbe ravine. Then
the wounded bear let-go her hold on his
shonlder. Wood sank back on the
ground, and lay perfectly quiet aa though
dead, hardly daring to breathe, The
grizzly stood majestically over Mm,
watching for the slightest movement,
and snarling with rage. The pain that
packed the man's fount) was frightful,
and he risked his life in an effort to as
sume an easier position.
RESCUED Hr BAD SOAPS.
At tbe first movement the grizzly,
roaring furiously, rushed at him. She
shoved her nose close to hie face and
sniffed at him, but Wood was again mo
tionless, and the bear, raising ber bead,
gave rent to unearthly screams.
Wood, knowing that his life depended
on it, remained motionless, and tbe bear
trotted after ber companions np the
ravine.
When he attempted to rise Wood fonnd
that his right hip was dislocated and bis
left shonlder chewed to the bone, while
bis olothing had been stripped from his
and his flesh had been chewod in a
H-J places. Inch by inch he pain
fully dragged himself from the spot, un
til Seabriug and Wilson, accompanied
by David A. Back, the latter of whom
bad been left to guard tbo camp, fonnd
him and carried him to their quarters.
