statement: "You have no concsp-

An eyewitness relates having
seen a young lady thrown from
horse in the western part of town,
Saturday. Her younger brother, a
lad of about twelve years, was
riding behind her, when the horse
became unmanageable and threw
them off in the mud. Luckily
neither of them were hurt. The
horse, after relieving itself of its
riders, began grazing on the road
side. The young people were pref
ty badly scared, but otherwise un-
hurt. The boy made quite dem
onstration over the fact that he lost
his hat in the deal. It took quite
a search to find his did," as it had
been trampled in the mud.

HUNTING THE GORILLA.

An Animal West Africans Say Hos
the Soul of n Man.
Gorilla hunting is distinct sensation
even for the veteran hunter This ami
NAL, which has become confused some
what with fable and fiction, is reali-
ty and decidedly unpleasant one to
engage. The west Africans are mortal
Iy afraid of 1t, believing that the brute
contains the spirit of a man. They at
tribute to It nll sorts of ferocities. like
the carrying off Of Il human being, who
is permitted to return after being de-
prived of toe and finger nails.
skilled hunters have never observed
any of these doings, but they testify to
the brute's strength and ferocity," says
Allen Sangree In Ainslee's. According
to French sportsman, full grown
gorilla can bite through tree six inch
es thick In order to secure the sap and
twist gun barrel with the swollen
punches Of muscle that serve for arms.
His roar is terrifying and can be heard
for distance of three miles.
81 shall never forget how the first
one impressed me- says tho French
man, for l had bad attack of shakes.
The woods had been filled some time
with barking roar, but saw nothing
until my guide clucked softly and
pointed to n tree alongside which stood
an immense male gorilla. There he re-
manned but twelve yards away, boldly
facing us with his huge chest. muscu-
lar arms, fercely glaring deep gray
eyes and helIlsh expression. until !

"At that he dropped to all fours and
came six yards nearer. sitting UP to
beat his breasts with his huge fists--a
defiance-so that 1t sounded like an Inn
mense drum. His roar was most singu
lar, beginning with kind OF bark and
deepening into bass roll that literally
resembled thunder. The short hair on
his forehead was twitching. his power
full fangs showed unpleasanlly. and,
feeling he was about TO attack and In
cidentally being scared green, shot
him through the heart. With a groan
something human and yet british. he
fell OH his face and died quickly, like
man. He measured ) feet o inches IN
length, his chest was g. Inches ard his
arms spread o feet. | was glad to have
the specimen, but somehow after that

LUNGS THAT ARE LAZY.
Their Owners Digest Poorly and
Catch Cold Easily.

Their Owners Digest Poorly and
Catch Cold Easily.
Fresh air is a free gift, but it is like
most of the gifts of heaven in that we
must do our share of work to benefit
by it. No one would expect to have a
good fire just because pair of bellows
hung on a nail by he chimney, but this
10 exactly what many people expect of
their lungs, which are really only the
bellows given us by which to keep the
fire OF life burning bright and clear
within US.
It's not too much to assert that lungs
properly used in a comparatively close
room will DO more good than lazy lungs
in an open field. This trick Of lazy
lungs Is habit, like any other, and
may be overcome by persistent effort
Many persons, for example. are afiiict.
ed with nervous habit of holding the
breath unconsciously. These are the
people who. In spite Of plenty of time
spent out OF doors, yet catch cold easi-
ly, digest poorly and are always more
or less under the weather" physically.
Many other persons-and they consti-
tute the great majority OF manhlho-
breathe only with the upper part Of the
lungs and although they may breathe
regularly do not draw in sufficient air
at breath to fill all the lung cells.
When once the pernicious habit OF
poor, shallow breathing has been bro
ken up, the health undergoes such mark
ed improvement, there Is such brighten.
ing of the spirits and improvement OF
tho looks, that the luxury Of deep
breathing Is not likely TO be readily
foregone.
A good way to start the new habit Is
to take deliberately few minutes at
stated intervals and devote them TO
proper breathing. II this is done sys.
tematically. the reformer will find him
self unconsciously breathing more and
more. until very soon he is obeying ma.
ture and really breathing to live.
Besides the gain to the general health
which comes from the habit OF deep |
breathing there Is created a reserve |
strength and preparedness which is
often Of great service In warding Off |
acute pulmonary diseases.-Youth's
Companion.

At the time OF his marriage he had
been through the civil war and had had
many narrowing experiences aboard
ship, through all OF which he kept cour
age and remained as calm as brave
man should. As the time for the cere-
mony came on. however, his calmness
gradually gave way. At the altar, amid
the blaze of brass buttons and gold
lace marking the full naval wedding,
the officer was all but stampeded and
what went on there seemed very much
mixed to him. Fearing the excitement
of the moment would temporarily take
him Off his feet, the officer had learned
the marriage ceremony letter perfect,
as lie thought, and he remembered re.
peating the words after the minister IN
mechanical sort Of way.

was serene again. including the OFF,
