From the San Francisco Chronicle: While fishing last Sunday neas :he head of Squaw Creek. in Souoma coun- ty. a party of San Francisco and Glow erdale sportsmen were attacked by a huge brown bear. Luckily they were armed, and soon halted bruia in his fierce charge by some weIl-direeted shots. After a long chase through dense underbru5a and among pitfalls and precipices the bear was killed The weight of the brute was 467l5 pounds. The members Of the party were Slave Giannetoni, Fred D. 9paulding. John P. Duane of San Francisco aud George H Hall and John Arnold of CloVerdale They had been camping and fishing for three days near the Geysefs. Last Sunday they pushed on ID toward the headwater of Squaw Creek. and not far from the limits of Lake Mendocino and Sonama counties In search Of like ly spot in which to cast their lines, the fishermen were crossing Running Bird canyon, when one of them caught sight of the great brown creature ad- Vaneing toward them. There was no time for the digging of trenches. Quickly they unslung their guns, and each one took careful aim, first select ing q tree that could easily be climbed. On numbered the big fellow until he was turned by shot from Spauidings rife. A second later George Hall pink ed the plantigrade just behind the left shoulder, whereupon the bear eol- lapsed, lost his footing and went tumbling to the bottom of the canyon far below, carrying with him great rocks and bushes uprooted in bis swift descent. Even then the bear wa5 not done for He scrambled to his feet. growing fereely. and made off toward the head of the canyon. followed by the dog of the party and all five of the men. Of whom Hall was the fast est runner.

He went to the barrel, and as ne laid his hand on It there was great rumbing Inside and out popped bear which gave a startled look and shut fled away rapidly into the push There was no explanation of the presence of the barrel in that spot except on the theory that the bear had stolen it in the night and rolled it all the way to the ridge. where the barrel had lodged for a snug resting place for himself

Some Queer Things Done by Pets and
 the Reason.
 Did you ever see your dog walking around and around in a circle2 or course you have, but 1 don't expect you know why they do it. Years and years ago, more years than you can count perhaps, the dogs were all wild like their cousins, the wolves. and had to beat out d hole in the grass or the snow before they could lie down. And the dogs have done the same way ever since. They had to keep their noses clean, too, 50 they could smell the rab- bits and other animals they ate a long ways off. so they never let thet,. noses touch the ground, going to sIean with their noses resting on their naws And they have done that ever since The cat is always washing herself and is known to be the cleanest of all the animals. We'll away back long ago inc cats had to keep clean or the little anf- mals she waited patiently for would smell her long ways off and Kitty would have had to go hungry. And cats are the same today.

THE WOMAN WHO sroops.

How She Gan Be Cured of This Un-
 graceful Habit.
 The woman who stoops is rare. thank goodness, but she does exist as an eye sore to beholders and a discomfort to herself. Yes, 1 am convinced that the stopping woman is quite uncomfort- able and would remedy her defect if she knew how Weakness of the sys- tenn is sometimes responsible for stopping shoulders, but earelessness is the great cause. Poring over books. writing for hours at time and neg feet to aid a defective vision with glasses are the main causes.
 The cure should begin with the nil. low Use one small. flat pillow at night or dispense entirely with the 1ux- ury of head rest Bear the tnfrmitv Tn mind and walk erecty and sit with the shoulders where they should he Expand the chest and keep the eyes on level with peoples faces. Practice walking about the room with a hook balanced on the head and hold inc chin up when reading, with the hook nlacad on level with the face. Have the eyes tested occasionally. and if you need glasses procure them at once. otten the trouble is but temporary and the use of glasses for few weeks or months will remedy the eye trouble.
