Every wolf that goes across the Great Divide means more calves to grow up; and you shall have your rug, I pledge you my word." Mr. Mabie shook the hand of the successful wolf hunter with emphasis, showing that he felt deeply on the subject. Just as he expected, Frank was still rather sore on the following day.
I'm getting so filled with wonder and awe that my tongue is getting into a rut with saying 'Ah! so much." "Less than a day will see us through now. Once we get over this range there lies a long valley, and in that is where Martin Mabie has his ranch."
When one of these came on Mr. Mabie was unable to walk any distance, and, unfortunately, he experienced such an attack that morning. "Sorry, boys, but it can't be helped. Reddy, here, will have to take my place. You don't need me, that's plain. Only don't be too reckless, now.
Mabie spoke these words in a low but tense tone. He was more or less excited by the strange actions of the prowling panther. "I reckon it's a mother, with hungry cubs near by. She's just bound to get some grub for the kits, men or no men. Now, if you lie low, and watch, I reckon you'll see something you never expected to see in your born days." Billy sat there motionless.
Jerry could never become wholly reconciled to the modern gun Bluff owned. He professed to be such a clean sportsman that he always believed in giving the game a chance, and declared it to be next door to murder to have six shots in hand when hunting birds. With big game, it was all right, because then a fellow's life might often be in danger. "Oh, Martin Mabie has written quite a long letter.
Mabie couldn't be along; for Jesse says he is the most entertaining man alive," grunted Bluff. "Oh, you forget that he said by the time we got there the work would slacken up, and he promised himself a vacation, just to renew his old pleasure of camping out in the wilderness, away from all mankind," laughed Frank. "That relieves my mind some," declared Bluff, brightening up.
Hamilton W. Mabie, in his delightful essay on "Some Old Scholars," describes this step from the gloom of the cloister to the light of God's world: "Petrarch really escaped from a sepulcher when he stepped out of the cloister of medievalism, with its crucifix, its pictures of unhealthy saints, its cords of self-flagellation, and found the heavens clear, beautiful, and well worth living under, and the world full of good things which one might desire and yet not be given over to evil.
Winter and summer, it's all the same to them, so long as we don't get after the pack too hot. Never lose a chance to knock over a wolf, my boy." "I never mean to," said Jerry, holding up a piece of gray fur. "That's wolf, all right; and look here, what did you do to him?" demanded Mr. Mabie.
"Give us a grip of your paw, old fellow!" cried Bluff, rushing up, brimming over with enthusiasm and admiration. "I'll sure never forget that sight! And he did the Rod, Gun and Camera Club proud when he used your weapon, didn't he, Mr. Mabie?"
But if men grow proud and self-willed, and misuse God's fair gifts, He lets them go their own ways, and fall pitifully, that the glory may be His alone. God help us all, and give us wisdom, and courage to do noble deeds! but God keep pride from us when we have done them, lest we fall, and come to shame! Germanic Hamilton Wright Mabie
