REFUGE UNDER THE BED.
The Dance n Particularly Crafty Hare
Led Pack of Nine Dogs.

Rabbits and hares are not particularly
well known as crafty animals to hunt, but
the London Field tells of a hare that show
ed considerable skill in outwtting the dogs.
1t was good-sized hare, and the nine dogs
had lively race after her. She circled, as
rabbits usually do when run by dogs, and
then led off. She went over high stone
fence, and bothered the hunters some.
Scared by some women, she turned square
to one side, and the dogs overran and lost
the trail for a little bit. Then the beast
was jumped again. she was very tired and
stiff, but got limbered,bp and ran we'll for
time Then she got to a farmyard, where
she disappeared and was not found by the
dogs again. 49,.

was the hare. 1t took refuge under the bed
but was carried out to the lawn and Hber-
ated. After sitting still awhile, the animal
went hopping away waiting for another
chase. 1t is only when hard pressed that
animals take refuge in human habitations.

Wanted-An Heir.
From the Galignani Messenger.

From the Galgnan Messenger
One of the most curious cases down for
hearing in the court OF chancery is the
final settlement OF the disputed will of the
celebrated prima donna, Nine. Titiens.
whose death occurred in 1877. nearly twen-
ty years ago. Nine Titiens was born in
1910 at Hamburg. She made her first APP
pearance on the stage at the early age of
fifteen. She was never married, and at her
death her immense fortune was left to a
relative, who, however, disappeared three
years before her death, and has never since
been heard of. The missing relative, Peter
Titjen, wasain 1878 residing in Cardiff, and
shortly after that time he minated his
intention of going to South America, but
whether he ever did SO cannot be traced.
For nearly twenty years the next relatives
have en- teavored to obtain the wealth on
the presumption that he is dead, and has
left no heirs, and last year an order was
granted that. after proper advertising, If
he or his heirs failed to appear it should
be assumed he was dead.

Catarrh in the Lung Cells.

When oatarrh has reached the lung cells IL can
go deeper in the chest. 1t has reached the
end of the road that is lined with mucous mem
brancs upon which it lives and feeds. Ii has
gradually invaded the deepest parts of the air
along 1t il checked in its onward march. but does
not leave the system. Catarrh rarely leaves the
system unless driven ont by proper treatment
When it has invaded the lungs 1t settles down to
feed on the tissues Of the lung cells An ulcer re-
suits. THIS ulcer eats In the mucous membrane

or the Jung, and cavity forms in the lung. This
Is the history of all these ciScs of catarrhal con-

4 Trnmp's Ready Wit.
From the Lexington (Ky.) Her

tramp asking for food at the door of
a certain good deacon residing near one of
the country thoroughfarcs was given a
loaf of bread by the master of the house,
with the rather inhospitable remark that
1.-THE Bible says If any man will not work
neither should he eat Looking down on
the gift with shade of disgust, the tramp
quickly responded: Yes; and does it not
also say that man cannot live by bread
alone?" 1t Is but truth to add that he re-
ceived a generous slice of country ham as
a reward for his quick-wittedness.
