which accounts for tho 81 hours that
have daily escaped your notice. Ho
can tell you more about your life
than you yourself know. His sched-
ule does not apply to tho man of
leisure nor to tho laboring man, but
is an accurate computation of the
average American business mans
time. In the Gum total Of GO years
account has been kept Of the years
of infancy and childhood. Here arc
the results Of the hard thinking done
by it's statistician:
Twenty years in sleep; three years
in eating; nino months iii waiting to

blood Of tho Eastatoe valley, caught
very largo catamount in q stool
trap. 1t WAS young, inexperienced
and lazy and began t. prey upon Mr..
Youngblood's lambs, hence his mis-
fortune. 1t was only slightly injured
by it's encounter with tho trap, 80
Mr.. Youngblood handled it carefully
until it's trap wounds were healed,
brought it to town, and sold it to tho
sportsmen. They lot it out last Sat
urday, gave it half an hours start,
then let loose two packs of ten
hounds each on t trail and it was
soon captured again but with little
or no injury to the"'scat. Yesterday
morning they gave him two hours
start, and they h2vo not rseen him
since. After lively chase of sev-
oral hours the trusty fox hounds re-
turned completely foiled. Those
who know tho characteristics OF the
wild cat say he is swift, agile and
cunning and that fox methods stand
no show when it comes to catching
him.
