AN ASTONISHING FACT
Is that an American should consider for
moment the ACCESSIBILITY of placing in his
home-for general use-any other than an
up-to-date American Cyclopaedia. The
vital consideration is-which work will give
the best satisfaction-eXcept, of course, d
person buys merely to secure a big pile of
books. Do you know "Johnson's Cyclic

omitted by the ancient British works now

On Little river, near Oseeola, La,
Robert Warren, lumborman, lost his
way in tho woods. He thought he heard
human voice, and hallooed to attract
attention. His shout was answered, and
the cries came nearer and nearer. Then
he discovered that it was pan-
ther that had been yelling. Being uu-
armed he climbed tree and remained
in it for an hour, The panther finally
left. When he thought the coast was
clear Warren descended and pursued
his way, and when no again hallooed to
attract attention tire panther returned,
this time accompanied by his mate. Up
q sapIing he again went, armed with a
stout club and determined to sell his
life as dearly as possible In the mean
time the boys in camp had become
alarmed at his absence and started out
to search for him, They had reached a

where he was treed when they eanght
