London, Sept. 6.-The Vienna cores
pondent of the Daily Mail says: There
has been another series of fatalities in
the Austrian Alps One case, the case
of newly married couple, was partic-
ularly sad. The bride lost her footing
and fell: the rope broke and she went
to destruction. The husband deliber-
ately threw himself after her and was
killed. A gentleman who visited the
spot two days later lost his balance and
fell, being killed instantly.

NO 10 O'CLOCK LUNCH.
A Food That Sustains the Body
After Common Food Is
Exhausted.

With many people there comes a
feeling of faintness and need for food
before the noon hour is reached. This
is generally because of the use of
white bread and other non-nourishing
articles of food used for breakfast. 1t
is a cause of comment among those
who use the concentrated food, Grape
Nuts, that no feeling of hunger is felt
until the noon hour. The facts show
forth that the food is sustaining and
nourishes and feeds the body hours
after the power of ordinary food is
exhausted.
A few days trial of Grape-N Nuts tells
the tale.

A FIERCE ENCOUNTER.

In the Plaza de Toros of Madrid O
combat was recently fought between
the famous man-eater tiger Gear and
the bull Regatero, says the New York
Times. The bull was the first to appear
in the Enclosure. He was walking
leisurely when the tiger .glided in and
at once sprang upon him, firmly i'm
planting his claws in his hide. The
bull. taken by surprise, seemed at
first undecided what to do; then with
a terrible below he reared up and
shook his adversary off. He backed
several PAGES and charged taking the
tiger upon his horns and throwing him
ten feet into the air. He then retired
and repeated the attack. He did this
again and again, and each time the
tiger, after being thrown, would land
on his feet. After the tenth trial Gear
seemed to lose heart; he retired to
corner of the arena and pretended to
be dead. The bull could not get at him
there, but kept careful watch, and each
time the tiger moved Regatero lower
ed his head to charge. At length the
tiger stole out, but was Immediately
charged by the bull, which had moved
several yards away. Regatero, this
time, sure of his prey, gored without
throwing. The tiger rolled over ap-
parently dead but when the door TO
his den was opened he made a dash
for it, The bull, following, gave him
a few parting strokes of the horn.
During the entire combat the audience
showed the greatest enthusiasm and
applauded wildly the attacks of the
bull, while they Kissed the strategic
movements of the tiger.

TEACHING LANDSCAPE GARDENING,

Edward Hyatt. Superintendent OF

circular containing a suggested lesson
for teachers of country schools In
note Superintendent Hyatt says that he
received the idea from Mr.. Rice, teacher
of the Hemet High School. The drawing
is by Kate Grey, and Illustrates plan

your older children some Friday after

We can awaken their minds to, the
fact that an intelligent idea beforehand
is necessary for the results We al ad-
mire and desire; and to the fact that 1t
is a pleasing thing to use our brains in
working available materials to the best
advantage in planning homes for our
selves or our schools. The future OF our
country is wrapped up in these children
we teach. Who knows what improve
ments, what symmetry in drives and
grounds. what beauty of tree and shrub
and flower may spring from this little
diversion?
If it be thought desirable to plan for
home rather than for a school, well and

may use are: fences of all kinds, gravel,

that are not likely to thrive under your
conditions. Use materials that can be
readily obtained. Do not put out things
that will be readily destroyed or that will
not bear the vicissitudes of a school

exercises it will be well to talk over all

Do not tire out the children by insisting
upon niceties of drawing or exactness of

Your object is to encourage each pupil to

express it by diagram. Then you have a
