Finish Your Jobs.

Many persons seem to be always in a

others never seem to be hurried and yet
do very great deal. If you have fifty

Some begin thing and leave it par
italy completed and hurry off to some
thing else. A better plan is to complete
whatever you undertake before you leave
it and be thorough in everything. The
going back and forth from one thing to
another wastes valuable time.
Another thing: deliberate workers are
those who accomplish the most work in a
given time, and are less tired at the end
than many who have accomplished half
as much. The hurried worker has often
to do his work twice over; and even
then, it is seldom done in the best man

Wolf Hunting in Lapland.

Mr.. Seton-karr, in book of travels in
Lapland, lately published in England, gives
this account of wolf hunt: The forest
near the arctic circle and in the vicinity
OF the Riff and Lof Fields, where fell in
with ii large band of Lapps and Reindeer,
are often the scenes of wolf hunts during
The winter The presence of wolves near
herds Of deer is always Il source of anX-
iety to the owner their most danger
Gus enemies, creating great havoc at
times among the herds belongin to the
mountain Lapps One WOLF they assert,
can kill in one night as many as 80 rein
deer, while IL band of wolves can make
rich Lapp poor. The alarm being given
of wolf tracks or wolves being seen in
any direction within reach of the Lapps
came, the swiftest runners on snoe shoes
prepare for a most exciting chase.
With the swiftness Of the wind this
procession of short men, in fur or blue
coats and sugar loaf shaped hats, rush
through the wood and dart like an arrow
down steep hills and through thickets,
or lump down lodges several yards in
height. Every one in making supreme
effort to be in front for only TO the strik-
er of the first blow does the wolf belong,
and to him appertains all or most of the
honor. The leading Lapp is soon close
upon his deadly foe, and he deals IA heavy
blow across the lOins with his sorong
spiked snowshoe staff, sufficient to merely
disable it, unless there are other wolves
to be pursued, in which case he kills 1t
outright.
