HOT WEATHER.
An Easy Way to Keep Comfortable.

1t is only through food that the human
body is sustained. Food makes good
blood if it is properly digested. The
proper operation of the organs of the body
will be carried on perfectly as a rule il
one will abandon the habits of tobacco
whisky, coffee, etc. Stomach quickly re-
covers itself and does its work correctly.
Those who find it hard to give up COT
fee can do SO easily if they will use Pos
tum Cereal in its place. This is made OF
pure grains but looks and smells like fine
coffee. while it has only the elements OF
wheat, etc., which are nourishing and
fatteniDg.
Postum Cereal is eminently the drink
for hot weather and it contains all the
elements of food necessary for the body
and helps one stand the nervous strain
on the system during the heated term.

Nest of CIocls sprinss.

In the Museum of Natural. History at
SoIeure, in Switzerland, there is a birds
nest made entirely of steel. There are
a number of clocl1-lnaking shops az
Soleure, and in The yards of these there
are often found lying disused or broken
springs of clocks. One day a clock
maker noticed in a tree in his yard a
birds nest of peculiar appearance. ES-
aIlining it, he found that a pair of wag-
tails had built a nest entirely of clock
springs. 1t was more than four inches
across, and perfectly comfortable for
the birds After the feathered archi-
tects had reared their brood, the nest
was taken to the. museum, whore it is
preserved as a striking illustration OF
the skill of birds in turning their sur
1oundings to advantage in building
their nests.

BUT he was very lean. why, SAID
barney Kelley. .'you could feed the
giant on porterhouse steak and eggs
and he wouldn't gain pound; but he
was an awful tough mani
His arms were very long and he had
hands as powerful as the paws OF 4
gorilla. All over his body the muscles
stood out in Jumps and cords, and his
strength was immense. he could do as
much work as two ordinary men, and
on that account his services were al
ways in demand at more than common
wages. He was especially seryiceabie

An ak was like a toy in his hands,
cant-dog like walking stick. He could
up end and shoulder a small log or piece
of timber that two ordinary men could
barely lift, and in every department
OF hearty manual labor he was a very
Hercules.
Many stories are told of the giants

sallcy woodsmen ''guyed" him about

Oregon Hunter Attacks 81 Bear with an
Ordinary JacEknifc.
j. c. Hearing, who was hunting and
trapping in the Blue mountains, few
niles west of EIgin, met with little Gd-
venture with bear recently that might
have proved rather serious to him had
il not been for the intervention of one OF
his dogs, says the Portland Oregonian.
He was engaged in setting traps, and as
he had considerable weight to carry he
had no weapon with him except a jack
knife, and on his rounds his dogs dis
covered the winter quarters of bear
IN o. big hollow tree. The bear was at
homo, and was pretty much alive, as sub
sequent events proved. AS bear pelts are
quite valuable, Jake was quite anxious
TO secure this one, but was afraid that l.
he went to camp, mile and Il half dis
tant, bruin would escape, so he dashed
his pocketknife to the end OF q stick and
ATTEMPTED to cut the animals throat. He
only succeeded in iniicting some pain
full flesh wounds, which SO cnraged the
brute that it suddenly came out OF its;
hole, and was almost on hiIa when one
oi his dogs made sudden onslaught on
the animals rear which diverted his
| attention long enough to enable Jake
to dodge behind a tree, and the dogs
soon made it so tropical for the bear
that it was glad to take refuge in a tree
where they kept it until a gun was
procured from camp, when the anima!
was quickly dispatched.
