4 TIMELY REMINDER.

Each season forces upon our con-
sideration its own peculiar perils to
health. The advent of fall finds
many reduced in strength and vigor,
poorly prepared to continue the bus
mess of life. The stomach and bow
els, the greatest highway animal
economy, is especially liable to dis
order in the fall. The nervous sys-
tem has also suffered in the Struggle.
Typhoid fever andmalaria in partic-
ular find in the fall that combina-
ton of earth, air and water that
mark THIS season as especially dan
gerous: The falling leaves; tie de-
caying vegetables contribute their
share OF contamination. Hoods Sar-
sapari'la furnishes a most valuable
safeguard at these important points,

Told By n Maine Hunter.

A Maine hunter, who is crack shot,
tells curious story about himself.
While hunting one day he came upon
fine large deer, not more than two
rods away. He attempted to raise his
rife TO his shoulder, but his arm be-
came suddenly paralyzed- All he could
do was to stand there and watch the
deer disappear In the distance. Then
his arm resumed its normal condition.
and he started on the trail once more.
After awhile he came upon the deer
second time, and again the hunter tried
to raise his rife, and again his arm re-
fused to serve him Then he gave It
up and went home, impressed with
sense of awe, and conviction that he
had better leave that particular deer

ageness. One night four men on horse
back were returning to their homes,
when all at once their horses stopped
and low growl was heard just ahead.
They had followed a narrow path
through dense forest for quite a dis

homes, and the thought of encounter

The CRAFTY ANT-LIoN.
The Curious Way in Which He Prepares
ga s. to Make a Living.

4 -
In the south of Europe there lives a
curious little insect called the ant-lion.
He is about an inch long, and has six
legs, yet he cannot get over the
ground very fast, for he generally
moves backwards. sftl .sg
The ant-lions habits are most re-
marlzable, but / may as well tell you at
the. start that he is rather cruel, for
you will be sure to find it out before
am through talking about hira. @i
The first thing tho ant-lion does
after he has made up his mind to have
home is to find o nice spot of sandy
ground. Then he marks out circle
about thirty inches in diameter, and
begins blowing up the ground with his
body. He goess round and round, maxi
ing the opening narrower and deeper,
until he has followed ont a funnel
shaped hole which is very deep. Each
time he goes about he turns quite
round. Why? To rest his fore leg.
He has one on each side. So you see
he rests one while he Is using the other.
And all the time he keeps throwing
away the sand. How do you suppose
he does this?
He takes It in one of his fore legs,
places it on the top Of his head, and
then gives his head a jerk. This sends
II considerable distance.
When his house is finished, he goes to
the bottom of it, and buries himself
Ill but his iaws-in the sand.

his living now. For he lives on the

exertion produced fresh flow of blood,
and with her paws resting tenderly on
her little one, and an imploring look at
her intruder, the mother wolf breathed
her last. Robert Dane was not the
man to refuse the last request of even
dying wolf, and he read her wishes
as plainly as though she had told him
in the simplest English. He laid down
his torch, went ba nj to his saddle and
from a roll of goods took out small
blanket. When he had carefully
wrapped the baby wolf he remounted,
and in short time they reached
the open country, when they sepa-
rated for their respective homes. Rob
ert fed the wolf warm milk and
put 1t in a covered basket. After break
fast the next morning he told his two
sons, Albert and Willie, that he had nm
orphan which he wished them to adopt,
and when he opened the basket and
told them it was young wolf they
were greatly astonished. They fed it |
