HUNTERS DEAREST TROPHY.
Sportsman's A mbition Marred Unless
He Has Killed ii Bear.


A big black bear Is the trophy that
all sportsmen who have been in the
woods are after. Shooting deer is all
right, and Il moose, of course. Is
sportsmans ambition until he gets one;
then he must have bear. 1t sounds
so much bigger. you know, to say that
you have killed Il bear comments the
Bangor Commercial Bears are sup
posed to be very dangerous and only
shot after hand-to-hand encounters and
thrilling escapes from death.
Bear hunting, however. is not SO
precarious as the sportsmen often
make 1t out to be. The killing often
consists of merely running across one
in the woods and shooting him before
he can get away. Then dogs are often
used in hunting bears. While the dogs
by their barking and Swapping are
keeping the brute excited. the hunter
has time to take a good aim and get
his game. Bears are often found III
their denS and smoked out. They are
sometimes inclined to be ugly when
this is done but do not stand much
chance against two or three 45-90s.
Practically all bears which are shot
by sportsmen are brought ont of the
woods and either mounted whole or
made into rugs, or the heads are set
up with the mouth open to give them
fierce expression. Bears are outside
the pale of the law in Maine and may
be shot, trapped or killed In any other
way wherever they may be found.
Whenever Il bear comes down from
up river the owner can always be
found at the western depot. Perhaps
he has deer or moose along that he
has to identify. After doing so he will
always ask If it Is necessary for him
to prove property in regard to the
bear, and he smiles proudly on the
crowds which are always gathered
around the wardens. If the bear is II
the game he has, why he will make a
big touse about not being able to find
the warden so as to identify his bear;
for, of course, he wants to be sure that
the bear isn't seized He wouldn't
| have that happen for anything. Oh,
no. Nor would he have the crowd re-
main ignorant of the fact that ne got
his bear.

nearly 90, 900 miles, for the sole bene

Company certifying that the new cars
furnished were the finest ever manu-
featured by them, and the engineers

The novelty OF the affair consists
largely in the fact that a few years ago
railroad companies strove to keep
from competitors accurate knowl-
edge of conditions along their lines
of railroad. Excluding the COM
plimentary feature, the main purpose
OF the Illinois Central expedition WAS
to-educate competing lines regarding
the unexcelled transportation facilities
possessed by that company, and tho
possibilities which lie in the develop
ment Of the south. Although progress

agents who were on the trip were
amazed to learn that the Illinois Cen

BAD TEETH: BAD SIGHT.
Dentist Says That Decayed Molars Cause
Disturbance OF Ocular Nerves.


Many people who come to me to have
their teeth attended to complain in
cidentally of falling eyesight, and
when 1 tell them that bad teeth, in
nine cases out of ten, are the cause.
few feel inclined to believe me-" said
well-known New York dentist.
bad sight is generally attributed to
overstudy, debilitated constitution. and
a hundred and one other causes, but
have you ever heard any one place the
blame Oh the teeth? Bad teeth are the
direct result of insufficient applica-
ton of the tooth brush. and bad eye
sight. resulting from decayed molars
exciting disturbances of the ocular
nerves. is the next inevitable penalty.
That is q fact which seems to be little
known.
THE other day I extracted four de-
cayed teeth Of young girl who was
almost totally blind; her pupils were
f1ilated and insensible. A week after
had pulled her teeth her sight was
practically restored. Two months pre-
yious to this cure the girl had Deen eA-
amined by an expert oculist, who,
after putting her to various eye tests
designated the case as 'hysterical am
blyopia.' and guess that's about all
the satisfaction the girl got judging
nv her condition when she came to me.
In saying this do not think for mo-
ment that l am In any way prejudiced
against oculists. 1 merely cite the in
stance.

to the teeth of scores of people with
impaired vision, and in every case
where the teeth are drawn the sight
