A DAY'S HUNTING IN THE MAINE 
WOODS. 
Continued ircm page 520. 
Surely there was a deer looking directly at me. 
The distance was too great for a sure shot and 
my first impulse was to move nearer. But re¬ 
membering that a friend of mine the year be¬ 
fore had seen what he thought to be two sticks 
above some bushes, and when he approached 
nearer to make sure whether he saw sticks or 
deer’s ears, a deer bounded away and escaped. 
I determined to take no chances of this kind, 
but to test my skill from where I stood. Tak¬ 
ing careful aim about eight inches below, and 
midway between, the ears, I fired. The ears 
were still there. I aimed more carefully and 
fired again. I felt sure I saw the ears move, 
but they were still there. Again I aimed, hold¬ 
ing my rifle firmly, and the instant I had the 
bead on what I considered to be the right spot, 
I pressed the trigger. The ears disappeared. I 
exclaimed half aloud to myself, “I've got him!” 
and made headlong haste to reach the spot 
where the ears had disappeared. There was no 
deer there, no blood. I looked carefully, no 
tracks. I examined nearby objects closely. One 
bullet had hit a stick on the ground, smashing 
it to splinters. Another had hit a spruce stump 
about the right bight above the ground to have 
struck a deer; a third had also hit the stump 
a few inches below the other. One of these bul¬ 
lets I found had cut off a raspberry bush. I 
placed the bush carefully on its stem and viewed 
it from the direction of my shot and saw that 
its leaves covered the stump except for two 
spaces about the size and position of a deer’s 
ears. One of my shots had gone so near the 
raspberry bush it had made the bush wave 
slightly and it gave the appearance of the “ears” 
moving. The next cut off the bush, the whole 
stump was in view, and the “ears” disappeared. 
I had shot a stump! 
What did it matter that further down the 
forest, as I made my way toward camp, I saw 
a white flag float gracefully over the bushes and 
vanish. I made no effort to stop its flight. 
I reached camp a little after dark bringing 
in only a healthy weariness, a ravenous appe¬ 
tite and pleasant memories. As I saw through 
the window in the lighted log cabin the genial 
faces of my companions, already returned, re¬ 
hearsing the day’s experiences, I felt that, al¬ 
though a hunter might bag no game, a day’s 
hunting in the Maine woods cannot be unevent¬ 
ful or without enjoyment.

the straw,” we both were dead to the world one 
minute afterward. 
Ten minutes later it was morning; at least 
it seemed that way to us. It was a beautiful 
morning, but being Sunday there was conse¬ 
quently no gunning. But, like good churchmen, 
we all went fishing. We had some good luck 
with never a drowning despite the day. On 
Monday it was the guns again with a smoother 
sea, something we all appreciated, and plenty of 
good sport. There was also an incident and a 
laugh, though not even a smile at the time. 
Along in the middle of the afternoon, hav¬ 
ing quite overlooked taking a jug of water out 
with us, we were all so dry that a match could
