They had been at the Club all the time, and were full of local news about the cub hunting, &c.

With another whoof Thor started along the slope in a spurt that brought him up to Muskwa immediately, and with a sudden sweep of his right paw he sent the cub rolling a dozen feet behind him, a manner of speech that said plainly enough, "That's where you belong if you're going hunting with me!"

This was just about his nursing hour before going to sleep for the night, for he was a March cub, and, according to the most approved mother-bear regulations, should have had milk for another month.

He went back to the balsam thicket, but the gorged cub now made no effort to follow him.

That natcherlist laughed until I thought he'd split when I told him a grizzly bear cub wasn't much bigger'n a house-cat kitten when born!"

There seems to be just one flaw in this scheme: an ordinary black bear is only about half as large as a grizzly, yet a black bear cub when born is much larger than a grizzly cub.

Within three or four hundred yards of the great mass of boulders where the grizzly had come upon the tan-faced cub was a small copse of spruce in the heart of a grassy dip, and here the hunters stripped and hobbled their horses.

The heavy rain had obliterated the cub's tiny footprints, but the sand was cut up by the grizzly's tracks.

The cub lifted his head.

For the little tan-faced cub had proved himself; and it may be that Thor had seen and understood.

If Muskwa had been alone, the cub would have gone sailing off in those murderous talons.

He was tremendously businesslike, and Muskwa, tagging bravely along behind, wondered if he were never going to stop; if there could be anything in the whole wide world finer for a big grizzly and a little tan-faced cub than these wonderful sunlit slopes which Thor seemed in such great haste to leave.

But with it came a two-pound trout which the cub quickly dragged out of range and began eating.

They had travelled a good twenty miles since leaving the Bighorn Highway, and to the little tan-faced cub those twenty miles were like a journey around the world.

The year-old cub joined the family circle.

On the other hand, a few days had put a lot of real mettle into Muskwa, and though he was only a third as large as Pipoonaskoos, and his feet were sore, and his back ached, he landed on the other cub like a shot out of a gun.

The tan-faced cub licked his chops just once, as if torn between the prospective delight of mauling Pipoonaskoos and the more imperative duty of following Thor.

Several times he saw Pipoonaskoos digging in the soft bottom close to the creek, and finally he drove the other cub away from a partly digged hole and investigated for himself.

Education is largely cuffed into a bear cub, and she would have given him a fine cuffing now.

Then he swung his head side wise and looked for the cub.

The cub was curled up in a shivering ball two feet in the crevice.

A young cub of a Saxon schoolmaster, full of simple-hearted enthusiasm and philosophy, comes down to the Austrian capital, and, taken up by a kindly, coquettish young countess, becomes the tutor of her cousin, a girl as simple as he.

ANDERSON, PAUL L. The cub arrives.

The governor is the best fellow in the world, but he draws the line at cub-hunting.
