EXCITING WOLF HUNT.
How the Lapps Pursue and XIII tn
Raipdear,S nastrauar

How the Lapps Pursue and XIII tn Q
Reindeer's Destroyer.
The Swedish Laps live entirely
with, by and upon the reindeer. A
Lapp who owns q thousand deer is a
very rich man; but as taxes are assess
cd upon the number OF deer, he is in
clined TO underestimate his herd. The
most dangerous enemy to tho herd Is
the wolf, which, IL disposed, can kill
thirty deer in a night. A band OF
wolves can make rich Lapp poor
When the snow is deep and soft, and
it is announced that the wolf tracks
have been seen in the neighborhood
OF the deer the swiftest runners on
snowshoes prepare for an exciting
chase. The wolf may have start of
a mile or two, but the track it leaves
in the deep, soft snow is so prominent
that the hunters can follow at their
best speed. The wolf though he may
run fast, has but slight chance OF
escaping the short men who. on snow
shoes, rush through the wood, dart
down steep hills, and jump from
lodges several yards in height.
Each hunter does his best to outrun
the others, for the wolf belongs to the
Lapp who strikes the first blow. As
soon as the leading hunter is close
enough TO the wolf he gives it heavy
blow across the loins with his strong,
spiked snowshoe staff. II there are
other wolves to be- pursued, he kills it
outright; If not, he disables it, and
waits till all the hunters have arrived,
before giving the death stroke.

She SKINNED the street with footsteps feet,
And hustled the timid men.
Tramp, traiun, tramp!
She entered the dry goods store,
And with echoing yread the dance she led
All over the crowded floor.
She charged the thpone where the bargains
were,
And everybody mad, way for her,
Wherever she saw . sinted sign
She made for that spot prompt bee line;
Whatever was old or whatever was new
She had it down and she looked 1t through.
Whatever It was that caugh, her eye, I
She'd stop, aud price, and pretend to buy;
But twas either TOO bad, too common, OF
good,
SO she did, and she wouldn't, and didn't and
would.
And round the corners and up the stairs,
In attic and basement and cverywhercs;
The salesmen tainted and oash boys dropped,
But still she shopped, and shopped and
shopped.
And round, and round, and round, and
round,
Like a winding toy with key that's wound,
She'd weave and wrfggle and twist about,
One way in and the other way out,
Till men grew giddy to see her go;
Aud by and by, when the sun was low,
Homeward she dragged her weary way
And had cent home the spells OF the day
A spool OF silk and hank Of thread

The Eig Ecnter of The Mnrlh.

Smyrna is the approach and the key
to the small district that supplies all
Europe. indeed the whole world, with
the most popular of dried fruits.
From the heart OF the town a railway
starts, running south TO Ephe sus aud
eastward to Sarakcui, and the traffic
of the line depends largely on the fruit
harvest. In Smyrna itself is the gro at
market for the distribution OF the figs
to all parts of the world, and in harbor
here may be seen II large fleet OF steam
ers lying moorcd stern on to the quays,
and porters, carriers and hamel busy
loadin. them in great wooden cases.
1t is by this railway that you make
your way into tho fig district. Tho
tract is comparatively small when it is
remembered that its produce may be
found all over the world. 1t is, fact,
actually small--a valley OF some lif-
teen miles skirting the northern bank
of the Meander, and with a width at
its widest OF scarcely more than five
miles. Twenty years ago not half this
area was under cultivation.
The soil OF this tract is very deep,
and has the property Of retainin 6
moisture, SO necessary for the crop.
This popularity is of special impor-
lance, as in case of drouth the fg-tree
does not generally show at the time
signs OF dropping. The leaves retain
their strength and color. 1t is only
afterward, when the fruit should have
reached maturity, that its stunted size
and diminished yield show the effects
of the check. Indeed, it is this quail
ty of the soil that makes the valley OF
the Meander the great center of the fig
crop. Experiments have been tried
by transplanting the trees to raise a
crop in the neighboring valleys, but
they have never been very successful.
