Zone day two natives came for me at our
place in Amboy, stating that man had
been carried off the night before from a
neighboring village. This was just the op-
portunity had been waiting for. Taking
out heavy express rifle which ! had
brought from London, took the two ma
tives to act as guides md started out. l
had already learned something about the
habits Of the man eater and knew Just
how to 60 at it. F-om inquiry among the
natives ! ascertained the exact location of
the lair OF the tiger, and for small com
pensation / succeeded in securing the sery-
ices Of a cody to guide me to the place.

everything in readiness and waited until ii
grew pitch dark Having in the meantime
located the exact position of the lair, / left
my guide, who by this time was almost
terror stricken, behind me, and on my hands
aud knees crept through the jungle. By
the cautious use Of my lantern found the
lair. Turning on the light, was startled
to discover the huge beast curled up and
sound asleep. His head was resting on his
paws and squgrely facing me. AS pre-
pared to level my rifle at him he stirred un-
easily. Turning the light full upon him, he
raised his head, but before he was thor
oughly aroused ! sent ball from my rife

the eyes
There was feast Of rejoicing in the vii
lage when ! returned with the skin.
Just before / left China on my present
trip / struck man eater who was an old
fellow and had record of about 20 victims.

the other barrel and struck him in the left

heart. He fell ct my feet, and 50 close was

The body Of an individual animal or
plant Is to be regarded, from the point Of
view Of heredity. as consisting Of two
distinct elements. These are germ cells
and body cells, the former devoted to the
important work Of reproducing the race,
the latter constituting the actual bodily
material, and cischarging all the ordi-
nary functions through which the indi-
viduai life is maintained. Inheritance Is
q matter Of the continuity Of the germ
plasm or germ cells, which ere handed
down from one generation to another in
cumulative ratio, carrying with them in
each case not the features and qualities
Of the one predecessor and parent. but Of
all preceding generations.
Assuming that the germ plasm is liable
to exhibit variations, we can see how and
why such variations can be transmitted
to new generations; but we have also to
take into account the influence on the
germ cells Of the body to which they
belong, While, then, inheritance pre-
serves through the continuity Of the
germ cells the stability Of the race, II
gives the rein to variation, and BY the
combined influences Of environment act
ing on the body Of the individual peoples
the world with new and ever varying
forms Of life. DIR. Alexander Wilson in

The horse that can do this work does not
