. Harper's young people . n hour of sun upit was gone completely, and I was beginning- to thinkwhat a fool I was to be hanging round a thick cafiou likethat, so near night, and so many grizzly signs about. Allat once I came out of the spruce thicket into an openingby the side of the high rocks, and there in a snug cornerlay two little cubs, no bigger than small puppies, fastasleep. 792 HARPERS YOUNG PEOPLE.
