MANIAC N TIE CARS.

Il WAS perfectly obvious that the man
n the corner was crazy.
At least It was perfectly obvious 70
the demonstrating woman who sat
just opposite him in the cable car.
II was not % much the mythical -
ries Of wigwag signals which he was
making with his Handkerchief Al the
amazing contorti0ns Of his face. In
the intervals Of these contortions he
stared intently in the direction Of his
nervous vis-a-vis, but At nothing in
the world. 20 vague was his look. Then
he would tap the bridge Of his nose
with his finger. grimace. and screw his
features into horrible expressions Of
malignant madness.
The poor woman didn't know what
to do.
+. Her alarm Was % apparent that ali
the others in the car noticed It, even
the man himself in one Of his lucid In
tervals. and thereafter his perform
ances became more violent than ever.
Every physician knows that maniacs
delight in playing upoa the terrors Of
haps the woman herself knew Il; at any
rste, her feelings finally reached an in
tensity such that when the man half
rose from his seat she shrank into her
corner with stifled squeak. which
brought from him glance of triumph.
or perhaps il was surprise. But he only
sank back again. with I'm expression of
disappointment, ~ IL his time had not
yet come. which, indeed. it hadn't.
Therefore she held herself gathered
close, with every muscle strained ready
to spring and nee. She didn't have
long to wait.
The man looked toward her with that
terrible unseeing stare. His fists
clenched. The handkerchief clenchcd in
one Of them jerked in short, sharp oscil-
lations. His eyes began to bulge out.
His face became purple. Beneath his
curling lips could be seen his teeth, bare
to the gums. He leaned forward to-
ward the horror-struck woman, his face
protruding almost into hers. His sharp.
hot breath was ON her cheek. and just
a. his arms went up to clutch she made
one bound from the seat that took her
half way down the car.
Two more leaps landed her ON the
platform. Thence with q mad yell she
launched herself forth. despite the re-
grasp Of the alarmed conduc-
tor. and was fortunately caught by .
policeman, who escorted her to the side
walk. where she wept. From behind she
heard = mud, gasping roar of ballled
rage, but the maniac didn't follow.
He didn't want to. He sank besk in
his seat again and wiped his fearful
eyes. Then ts took out a newspaper
and began 10 read. II had been . hard
struggle, hut II had ended in victory. |
He had got that sneeze out.-N. Y. SUN.

The muscles are bundles Of fibcrs
each fiber is . bundle Of fibers, and
each Of these may be separated. the
smallest actual fibers being one-four-

There are in the body SCI muscles-

bones and muscles combined are capa-

The muscle which acts upon the heel
is one OF the largest and most powerful
in the body, for in raising the heel II has
to raise the whole weight of the body.
There are 40 pairs Of nerves that start
from the base of the brain and spinal

Few people understand what . 10
gan" 10, and fewer still who have had IN
opportunity to visit such 4 locality. In
central and northern Minnesota logans
ere numerous. They are similar to the
bayou of the south. but differ chiefly in
that the vegetation which grows in
them II found only in the northern eli
mates, with few exceptions. This vege-
tation il often 20 dense that it il utterly
impenetrable. save to wild animals or
birds.
The difficulties to be encountered in
mailing ones vay through such q con-
glomeTstion OF water. swamp and thick
upderkzpwth forest are extremely great
so great, In fact. that none but ex-
perienced hunters will venture among
them.
A few days ego . party Of nimrods
from Lindstrom, this state, while in .
canoe. had q strange and thrilling ad-
venture in the Bow String, one Of the
most puzzling logans Of the northwest,
and. though they had been through the
Bow String many times before, yet foF
many hours they were thoroughly lost,
and even the guides almost gave up In
despair before they succeeded in hnd.
:ng their way out. The humorous part
of the journey occurred when this canoe
load Of hunters ran across another boat
load Of nimrods, who were also lost,
and each party essayed to follow the
other. hoping that they would soon be
piloted out Of the difficulties, but the
result was that all became entangled
more than ever, and il took three
quarters Of day to free themselves
from the intricacies of the logan.
One who has never visited . logan
cannot understand the density of the
vegetation. where for long distances
it is impossible to observe an object for
perhaps scarcely . rod away. and where
there II seldom . straight sheet Of wa.

where there must be CONTINUAL series
Of xigzagings to avoid the little island
forests, and where the tall water plants
impede all progress and help to make
canoeing unhappy and miserable BE-
yond descriptions.
When fowl or game is sighted in these
logans it vanishes 20 quickly that the
most expert huntsman Is completely
baffled in his attempts to shoot, and the
charms and pleasures afforded in such
trip are chiefly those derived from the
wild, solitary loneliness Of the sur.
