ILLUSTRATIONS

The Hermit And Pal Took Many a Trip Into the Forest.[Frontispiece]
Slowly it advanced, its body almost brushing the snow[15]
And then occurred a memorable battle[33]
Pal stopped, clearly astonished[45]
As if carved from the rock the big moose stood[49]
The Hermit took the one chance that presented itself[59]
The dam, when finished, was a work worthy of a trained engineer[67]
A full grown fox stood motionless in the sunlight, a rabbit hanging limply from her jaws[83]
The big frog was flipped out upon the bank[97]
Ringtail had heard the agonized cry of his playmate[119]
He crouched upon a branch, glaring down at the animated leaf-pile[131]
The hawk dropped like a thunderbolt and caught him in its talons[143]
Instantly the fawn thrust out his delicate muzzle and licked the outstretched hand[154]
Both glared but refused to let go[175]
The Other Cub Forgot Her Fear And Demanded Her Sugar Lump.[188]
High on his rocky ledge he lifted his muzzle to the moon[205]
