THE CARIBOU.
Big Game Found in the Forests of
Newfoundland,
Now l have found a Frield
Whose love shall never end.
Jesus is mine,


The carbon found in Newfoundland
is variety of reindeer known as wood
land caribou. They grow larger and
carry better antlers than in any other
part of North America The natives al
ways call them deer" The bulls they
term "stags, and the females blinds
or ''does." while the young are known as
''fawns." These caribou are certainly
noble game, and look entirely different
from the awkward creatures represented
in pictures A fullgrown stag, with his
great antlers almost covering his Shout
ders, walking proudly behind herd of
does as they cross ridge against the
sky line is sight long to be remem
bered, and we'll calculated to make the
blood Jingle in the veins OF a sportsman.
The males are almost white in October,
while the females are somewhat darker.
In summer they are all dark brown in
color, but like the hares and willow
grouse, turn white in the fall as soon as
the snow flies.
A full-grown stag will measure { feet
in length, and stand about feet inches
at the shoulder, with chest measure of
"a inches. The meat dressed will weigh
about 400 pounds. Both the male and
female caribou carry antlers, and some
times those of the doe are as large as the
horns of small stag. The males lose
their antlers in November, but the fe-
males carry theirs until the following
season. wise provision of nature to en-
able them to protect their young. The
horns of the stays are only for ornament
and fighting, and not for the purpose of
scraping away the snow, as some people
imagine When their favorite moss is
covered too deep with snow, they find
plenty of an inferior quality, black in
color, hanging to the stunted trees, but
they only feed on this when the other is
too difficult to obtain
From the latter part of September TO
the lattor part Of October the stays are al
WAYS ready for a fight, and woe TO the
Individual they catch on the marsh I'M
armed They will charge him without
moments hesitation The settlers fear
them at this season Of the year more than
all the bears and wolves put together.
They migrate TO the southern end of the
island us soon as the first heavy snow
falls generally about the LIST OF Noyem-
ber-where they remain until spring,
when they return, keeping nearer the
coast and in the woods in order TO escape
the flies that torment them during the
warm weather, On their fall migration,
when they swim across Rel Indian Lake
and similar places well known to the
Micmaes and white settlers, they are
dubbed and speared to death by hun
dfeds, Most of these are wastet. My
guide told me he counted one hundred
and fifteen in one heap two years ago,
and he did not believe over dozen were
ever hauled out and used One of these
days, when too late, they will regret this
stupid and shameful waste. -. Harper 5

ten thousand angels OF darkness mingle in

King James gave to Sir John Scott, for
his courage, charter Of arms with num-

Ready, aye, readyp and yet. when God
calls us to the work and the cause demands

ment of world in bondage How the fet-
tiers would snap and how the darkness would
fly, and how heaven would sing. You havs
never seen an army ike that which God
shall gather from the four winds OF heaven
to fight His battles They shall cover every
hilltop an l stretch through every valley AMI
man the vessels on every sea. There shall
neither be uproar nor wrath nor smoke nor
bloodshed. Harvests shall not lie waste in
the track nor cities be consumed. Instead
Of the groans of captives shall come the
song OF those r51eame5.
Yet the conquest shall be none the less
complete, for il in that hour when all should
be vigilant the church of Goi should neglect
to seize the przs and the cause should seem
TO fall from the gfavayards and ceme

the moon in the valley of Ajalon, the day

But my text is descriptive also OF thoss

So with Agrippa when almost persua led

man who went away from Christ very sor-
rowful. So with tens of thousands who

Dr. Popoff finds that beet and fish
are more rapidly peptonized in raw
than in a cooked condition. He con-
eludes, therefore, that these viands are
rendered harder to digest by cooking.
Moreover. the longer they arc cooked
the more indigestible they become.
This is especially true Of beef. After
having been subjected to the same
process Of preparation Except smok-
ing) beef, las arule, was the more easily
digested. Smoking renders fish more
digeStable and beef less digestible
Fish rich in fat is easier digested
