a traveller in India tells story
of the destruction of a certain De.
culiarly bloodthirsty tiaer which for
q long time had prowled about por-
tton'o awell known road, attacking
the drivers of the native carts, and
carrying them OF to be deyoured in the
neigh5oring jungle. Those who were
obliged to travel this road had en-
ployed various methods for insuring
safety. One Of these was to travel In
numbers, several carts going through
In succession. But none of these
means were effective.
at length the Superintendent OF
Police, Mr. D, who unfortunately
had lost one arm by an accident, de-
termined if possible to put an end to
the creatures depredatfons. He OBJ
tanned two covered carts, each drawn
"a usual by two bullocks. The lead
Ing cart was fitted in front and behind
with strong bars Of dashed bamboo,
which formed an impervious cage.
In this cage the driver was seated,
while Mr.. D. himself sat with his
face toward the rear, prepared to fire
through the bars should the tiger,
according to its custom, attack the
driver Of the rear most cart.
This would have been an exciting
moment for the other driver in ques-
tion, but Mr.. D. had carefully
prepared dummy, dressed exactly to
personate the usual native carter.
The bullocks, being well-trained,
would follow closely in the rear of the
leading cart, from which a splendid
shot would be obtained should the
tiger venture upon the attack
All went we'll; the road was DESC
late, bordered by jungle upon one side,
and wild grassland upon the other.
They had now reached the locality
where the dreaded danger lay, and
slowly the carts moved along the road
In their usual apathetic manner,
Suddenly there was a roar; large
tiger bounded from the jungle. and
with extraordinary quickness seized
the dummy driver from his seat upon
the rearmost cart, and dragged the
unresistitig victim toward the junglel
Nothing could have been better
PINNED; but there was one possibility
which had not been taken into ac-
count. No sooner had the tiger
roared and bounded upon the cart
than the bullocks, terrified by the
dreadful sound, at once stampeded OF
Che road, and went full gallop across
country, followed by Mr.. De bull
locks in the widest panic.
1t was impossible to fire, and after
q few seconds Of desperate chariot
race, both carts capsized among the
numerous small nullahs of the broken
ground, where bullocks and vehicles
lay in superlative confusion. The
victorious man-eater was left to enjoy
q rather dry meal-a straw stuffed
Image instead Of the JUICY native
which he had expected.
The tiger was subsequently killed
by native shikari, who watched
from tree over tied buffalo.

ADVANTAGES IN snEEr.RArarso,


One OF the advantages in raising sheep
is the rapidity with which their numbers
may be increased. Another is the yearly
revenue they yield from the annual crop
of wool, and not the least is the growing
Importance ana increased value attached
to their flesh us food. Mutton is being
more and more valued in the markets,
SO that sheep need no longer be raised as
wool-bearing animals only. That there
are no animals that will so surely assist
in bringing up rundown farm into n
state of comparative fertility or prevent
it from getting into an impoverished con-
dition. The manure from flock of sheep
is scattered in the best possible condition
for the immediate use of the vegetation
of the pasture, and, unlike that of the
larger animals, does not first kill the
grass on which it falls before any benefit
is derived from it generally. Then they
are the most active weed-destroyers of
all the farm animals, ard in this way by
first converting them to their own use as
food, turn the substance of plants that
are naturally pests into sources of fer
tility. Then the gregarious habit OF
sheep enables large Aock to be trans
ferred from one field to another as easily
as single animals of other species. One
of the hindranccs in raising sheep sue
cessfullly is the large number of dogs so
often kept in towns and villages for no
conceivable good purpose. In many
cases this has become such a nuisance
that farmers living in. their vicinity who
would otherwise keep few sheep are
prevented from doing so.-New York

Naed just right
Liver, Stomach, and Bowels, by
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
do it in just the right way, too
by using Natures own methods.
That's why they're better than the
dreadful, old fashioned pills, with
their gripping and violence.
But they're better in every way.
In size, for instance, and dose.
They're tho smallest and the cas-
lest to take only one little Pellet
is needed for gentle laxative
three for q cathartic. They cleanse
and regulate the system thoroughly
but it's done easily and naturally.
Sick Headache, Bilious Headache,
Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all arrangements of
the Liver, Stomach and Bowels are
prevented, relieved, and cured.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re-
turned. You pay only for value
received.
Something else, that pays the
dealer better, may be offered as
"just as good" Perhaps it is, for
him, but it can't be, for you.
