The Law of the Innrle.

The law Of the jungle, which never
orders anything without reason, for
bids every beast to eat man exceptwhen
he is killing to show his children how
to kill, and then he must hunt outside
the hunting grounds of his pack or
tribe. The real reason for this is that
man killing means. sooner or later, the
arrival of white men on elephants, with
guns. and hundreds of brown men with
gongS and rockets and torches. Then
everybody in the jungle suffers. The
reason the beasts give among them
selves is that man is the weakest and
most defenseless of all living things.
and it is unsportsmanlike to touch him.
They say, too-and it is true-that man
eaters become NANCY and lose their
teeth.-Rudyard Kipling in st. Mich

girls parents refused their consent to
the union, insisting that she should
marry a wealthy Mexican sutton. At
the suggestion of the girl they agreed
to die together, and to test the strength
and endurance of each others love
they chose a means of suicide unlike
any ever dreamed of before. Food
and fruit were placed on a table in the
center of a room, occupied by both, the
girl having escaped from her home, but
being unwilling to elope with her lover.
1t was agreed that they should starve
to death with plenty before them, and
should either succunb to nature and
partake of the food then both were re-
leased from the bond of death, but there
should be an everlasting separation. For
10 days they endured the pangs of hun
ger without a murmur or thought Of
wavering from their purpose to die to-
gether. The twelfth day the father Of
the girl discovered her whereabouts,
