GAME SEASON.
When Deer, Wild Turkey, Pleas
ants and Other Game May
he Killed.

AS the various seasons for
shooting game under the law are
now approaching it will not be
amiss to make a note of them in
these columns.
Deer may be killed during the
month of November only.
Wild turkeys, pheasants or
grouse, quail and squirrels may
be taken from October 10 to De
cember 10 inclusive.
Rabbits pay be killed from No
vember 1 to December 10 inclu-
sive.
Woodcock may be taken during
the month of July and from Oc-
tOber 15 to December IS inclu.
sive.
The penalty for killing deer out
of season or with dogs is 800, or
one hundred days in Jail. For
killing wild turkeys, pheasants
and quail $25, or twenty-five days
in Jail. For killing rabbits or
squirrels out of season 80 or ten
days in Jail. The law prohibits
the killing of more than two deer
in one season by any one person,
and the killing of more than two
wild turkeys, ten pheasants or
fifteen quail or woodcock in one
day by any person. The sale of
deer, wild turkeys or game of
any kind is prohibited under pen
atty of 800.
1t would be well for all hunters
or persons interested in game
catching to cut this out and paste
or put it in some safe place for
reference. Hunters ought not
only to strictly obey the law but
they should see as far as possible
that others do so. The way to
have game is to take care of it.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

Very few women rest as they
should, for the very simple rea-
son that they do not know how.
They think that to be thoroughly
comfortable they must undress
and go to bed, but this is quite Il
mistake. Provided there is a
footStool in the room on which
the feet may rest and Il comfort
able chair for the body there is
no reason why a quiet half hour
spent in this manner should not
rest and refresh tired woman
as nothing else could do. If you
want to gain the maximum of
rest in the minimum of time, you
should employ the masculine but
healthful trick of putting the feet
occasionally higher than the
head. Fashionable women, to
whom the necessity of ever look
ing their best has taught this
knack, falling into. this position
whenever they are in the seclu-
sion of their own rooms.
There should be general rejoic-
ing in girls schools over the an
nouncement made by the British
Medical Journal that piano prac-
tice is distinctly injurious to the
nerves of little girls. DR.. Waltz
hold, nerve specialist, has been
investigating the subject, and he
finds that the effects of learning
to play the piano are so deadly
that out of 1000 girls studying
the instrument before the age of
II no fewer than 600 suffered
from nervous diseases in after
life, against 100 who had never
learned at all. His opinion is
that the deadly" custom of max
ing little girls hammer daily on
poor, patient pianos should be
prescribed by public opinion.
We're it put to the vote there
ought to be no doubt about the !
result, for if the nerves of learn
ers suffer from the daily practice |
the nerves of listeners must be
in still more serious condition.
Dr. Waltzhold deserves a public
memorial and were a subscrip-
tion raised for the purpose it
would certainly be handsome
one, for there is not schoolgirl
who would not spend the last
penny of her pocket money on it,
while the victims of "neXt door"
piano would simply beg to be al
lowed to subscribe.

HE LONGED TO LEAD.

There was man who prayed
For wisdom, that he might
Sway men from sinful ways
And lead them in the light.
.h night he knelt and asked the Lord
let him guide the sinful horde,
And every day he rose again
no idly drift along.

Who form the common throng.
Year after year he prayed
For worldly strength to lead;
Year after year the Lord
He worshiped failed to heed;
prayer for leadership and light
fattled off by rote each night,
And in the morning rose again
To merely drift along.
One OF the many common men
Who form the common throng.
One day the man who longed
To lead in mems affairs
Resolved that he would add
Hard work unto his prayers;

Snelt and prayed for help, at night
And God gave ear and aid, forthen
He ceased to drift along
A cipher with his fellow-men,
But came to lead the throng.
