1t is very vexing and annoying, indeed,
to have ones lips break out with cold
sores, but, like the measles, it is far better
to strike out then to strike in. A drop of
warm mutton suet applied TO the sores at
night, just before retiring, will soon cause
them to disappear. This is also an ex-
cellent remedy for parched lips and chapped
hands. 1t should be applied at night in
the liquid state, and be well rubbed and
heated in before brisk fire, which often
causes smarting sensation, but the
toughest of hands, by thi. treatment. will
often be restored to their natural condition
by one application If every one could but
know the healing properties of so simple Il
thing as little mutton suet, no house
keeper would ever be without it, Get a
little from your butcher, fry it out your.
self, run into small cakes. and put away
ready for use. For cuts and bruises it is
almost indispensable, and where there are
children there always plenty of cuts and
bruises. Many deep cash that would
haYe frightened most women into sending
for physician at once, 1 have healed with
no other. remedies than a little mutton
suet and plenty of good CASTLE soap. A
wound should always be kept clean, and
the bandages changed every day or every
other day. A drenching of warm soap
suds from the purest soap that can be
obtained is not only cleansing but healing;
then cover the surface of the wound with
bit of old white muslin dipped into melted
mutton suet. Renew the drenching and
the suet every time the bandages are
changed, and you will be astonished TO see
how rapidly the uglest wound will heal.

GOOD BEAR STORIES.
Told by Man Who Has Hunted Brutn
 Under Peculiar Gircumstances.

l was once present at a great fair It the capital town. While at it's height bear was viewed on the neighboring hillside. hurried up with my rifle and shot him from above between the shoulders. but. instead of dropping, he rushed headlong into tho middle of the fair and squatted in a bush. The people foolishly crowded around. and so prevented my getting shot Presently he rushed forth, and passing a grain dealers shop. ho gave the owner slap in the face and passed on, but that slap took out q semieircle of his jaw with seven teeth attached. The man $ nerves were so little affected that he presently held up the piece of jaw with pride for our inspection when we visited him at tho hospital, and he was at his work again in few days. The bear was soon dls- patched after he left the poor grain dealer. Though the deadly wound l gave the bear failed to stop him, I was more fortunate with another bear which 1 got q shot at going at full gal lop, and l rolled him over with one shot so that he never moved again. He was big one. but doubled up just like rabbit. Stalking bears is just a trihe tame, as they are so easily ap- preached and afford so large t mark, but driving them is more exciting. There is all the excitement of noise and numbers, and 1t is more difficult, of course, to hit them. In the Ilima- layas NC mad some wonderful spots for bear driving. In one drive ten bears were secured. \ quaint old planter used to join in these battues. He had a perfect armory of guns and rifles, but none Of them modern or precise.
 He used to take his blacksmith out with him. who would. on the spot, ad- just the bullets to the required gauge and hammer them homo when tight fit. His many and cratic weapons caused Us more anxiety than the bears. He had q way of claiming as hi. tro- phies all that were shot. He could not tell. l suppose, what he had aot bit. Murray Masazina
