Worth Thinking About.

There is great deal of talk nowadays
about the harmlessness of certain kinds
s6 liquor, and probably beer is the bev-
uerage most frequently advocated as a
healthful drink For those who have
reached this conclusion there is food for
reelection in the following statement of
facts.
The attention of the New York hospi-
tai surgeons has been called to the large
rsufnber of bar tenders that have lost
several fingers of both hands within the
past few years,
The first case was that of an employee
OF BoWery concert-hall- Three fingers
of his right hand and two of his left
were rotted away when he called at
Bellevue one day and begged the doctors
30 explain the reason He said his duty
was to draw beer for the thousands who
visited the garden nightly
The man was in perfect health other
wise, and it took the young doctors quite
Il Gime to arrive at a conclusion. But they
did finally, and it nearly took the beer
nan's breath away when they did
Your fingers have been rotted off, ;"
tsaey said, "by the beer you have hand
ED -
Other cases Of a similar nature came
RAPIDLY after this one, and today the ply
sSeians estimate that there is an army of
employees of saloons whose fingers are
being ruined by the same cause. The
acid and resin in the beer are said to be
responsible
The head bartender of we'll known
saloon says he knows a number of cases
where beer-drawers have, in addition to
besing several fingers of both hands, lost

knows, that it is impossible to keep a

will rot leather almost as rapidly as an

stock smashed off. The hammer
was left, it is true, but it wouldn t
stand cooked under any oircum-
stances, and everything abaft the
hammer was gone. Some of my
brave readers who are not afraid to
pull trigger may think it an unde.
sirable job to hold up the hammer
of Kelso's gun with the thumb,
stick the whole thing out at safe
distance from the face, shut one eye,
take aim-make ready-and let the
hammer slip-bangl
Not so with Kelso, however. He
took his fragmentary relic and
strobe away through the brush to
see what the dogs were raising such
a row about.
The rocks on the top of this hill
are huge cubes and rectangular
blocks as big as houses fresh flung
from the hand of God. The dogs
were barking about the orevioes of
one of these. Kelso climbed labori-
ously to the top of it, so as to look
down and find the wildcat or what.
ever it might be, when, as he scaled
the crest, a giant mountain lion made
rush past him close enough to
touch, and stood glaring down saw
agely at the yellow dogs, switching
his tail with an uneasy, nervous en-
ergy.
The lion made spring down
among the dogs, struck them off to
right and left and went in great
leaps down the mountain side that
slopes toward San Jacinto The
dogs pursued, and after them flew
the excited Kelso. Down, down
they went for a mile or more
through brush, over rocks that
would have cost the life of any one
but mountaineer.
At last the big cat, harassed and
confused by the following dogs, took
refuge in his lair, cave among the
rocks, some distance above the Pioo
springs, and when the man arrived,
the dogs we're feroely barking into
the mouth of the cavern, and the
lion was at bay. Kelso pushed in
among the dogs in the thick of the
fray. Suddenly the middle dog shot
like an arrow at the lion and seized
him by the throat. At word from
his master the hound rushed in and
seized the great cat by the jaw, and
the fyste followed suit by worrying
his prey in the TANKS.
The scene was indescribable. Fur
and blood, yeals, growls, bowls,
snarls, demoniac cries and shrieks
filed the echoing cavern. Kelso
held up the hammer of his ancient
shooting iron and pointed the muz-
zle in toward the fearful din. He
crept in till he was actually stand
ing on the lions tail. As the great
brute raised his head above the
struggling dogs the hammer was re-
leased. For a wonder the cartridge
and the whole top of the
lions head was blown to smither-
