How Lions Hunt Game.

Lions, as a rule, hunt in family
parties. A very old lion, not infre-
quently incapacitated fr m taking an
active part in pursuing game, is gem
orally to be found at the head of such
coterie, and on him deyolves no
unimportant part Of the programme.
Down TO leeward, a hundred PAGES
below where the draught bullock is
made fast, when a train halts for
rest, the young and active males and
lionnesses place themselves behind
what available cover is TO be found.
This being done, the old lion goes TO
windward of the encampment and
shakes out his abundant name in the
breeze, so that the Odor from il may
be carried down to the excited
draught animals.
One sniff OF the tainted breeze
brings every OK to his feet in a mo-
ment; then, standing, trembling with
fear, they gaze with dilated eyes into
the impenetrable darkness. Closer
and closer approaches the aged lion
to his victims, shaking and re-shakinq
the dense, ,tawny covering of his fore
quarters.
Then, il the travellers harness Is
not strong, he may look out for a
stampede. Should it be held tempo
rarily, the aggressor, as climax 10
his former manpuvre, gives utter
ance to his deepest and loudest roar,
when the frightened beasts, II not se-
cured by the stoutest fastenings that
can be obtained, will break free and
rush with inconcelvable rapidity into
the very jaws of their foes secreted

By the Wayside.

Dear wife, beneath the summer smile
That lights pilgrinl way,
We pause for wayside rest awhile,
And bid the sweet hours stay.
Our weary feet have wandered long
Beyond our hopes or fears,
Through winters snow and summers song
The half of fifty years
Now let the vanished days return
The mornings flush and glow,
While DER the hil-tops blush and burn
The lights of long ago
How wide the bending arms of blue
The waiting earl h enfold;
How tender loyal, sweet and true
The vows at noontide told!
How fair the thronging pictures runi
What JOY the vision fills
The star-giow and the set ofsun
Amid the northern hills
The hillside fringed with sombre woods,
The mountains slope beyond,
The woodland where the twilight broods,
The lily haunted pond.
We hear again the insect throng
Their MONDAY measures shrill;
The pine-trees Groom a low sweet song
When all the air is still
No passing cloud the picture blurs;
AS fair to-day it seems
AS when the sunrise through the frs
Awoke from starry dreams.
The hours pass on; the vision cheers
Our wayside rest to-day,
And all the bounties of the years
Is dropped upon way.
In pilgrim robes of singing clad,
In loves divinest air,
Two hearts that beat as one are glad,
And all the world is fair

This results when the heart fails
to send to the brain a sufficient sup
ply of blood. A faint may be par
tiql or complete. In either case
there may be warning Of what is
coming, and some persons can even
assume favorable posture before
losing consciousness. Most adult
readers are familiar with the symp-
toms of faint; the face turns pale,
the eyes close, consciousness is lost,
and the person falls. or course
when the heart fails TO send blood
to the brain, it also fails TO send IL
to the surface of the body, and hence
the skin is paid, cold, and perhaps
cIammy. Both the breathing and
the pulse may be impreceptible, and
the person may seem TO be really
dead. In other cases the breath
may come in occasional sighs, and
a feeble action may be detected in
the heart. THIS condition may con-
tinue for hours, but it commonly
lasts only a few minutes. Painting
is sometimes serious affair indeed,
at times it ends i'm immediate death.
One cause of this more dangerous
fainting is fatty degeneration Of
the heart, and another cause is n
considerable loss of blood. In any
case of profuse hemorrhage, Of course
everything must be done to arrest
the flow of blood, but meanwhile the
lowering of the head and shoulders
below the level of the body will
greatly facilitate a favorable result.
In most cases of fainting there is an
inherited nervous susceptibility. Only
a small proportion of persons ever
faint under any circumstances. 4
few faint at the slightest cause, fear,
JOY, grief, unpleasant sights, moi
some smells, heated and impure air,
sudden accident or some irritation Of
the stomach or other internal or
gans. The exciting cause varies in
different persons, and each should
guard himself at his own point Of

fiat on the back. We know of one
person subject to fainting who had
learned always, at the first monition,
to take this posture of her own ae-
cord, and il speedily terminated the
attack. If the person is in a crowd
ed assembly, she should at once be
taken into fresh air, but under no
circumstances should anything be
placed under her head. The more
