Sharply the truth outlined itself before
me. Harlan Hume had faced an awful

innocent young daughter hurled to eter-
nal darkness.

He breathed deeply. I'VE occupied the

HUMPING THE DEER.
One of the MOST Thrilling Experl-
eAces which Befan the Hunter
of Big Game.

jumping a deer is a highly at
tractive phrase, quite apt to make
a tingling in the back hair of the
tenderfoot who hears it for the first
time. 1t is also intensely satisfac-
tory to the chap who always has t.
shave before wooing nature, says Out
ing. You may, indeed, get good
shot in this way, and it is generally
the only way to see the grandest OF
all the sights of the woods-deer
running through a windfall. To see
the glossy curves of fur curl over the
lofty logs that lie piled on each other
in boundless confusion is well worth
a trip to the woods, while for him
who loves the rifle as | do, more for
what cannot be done with it than for
what can, there is no such target
elsewhere. But for the tyrO who IS
dying to get that first deer jumping
deer generally means out of sight
and out of hearing both. For the
deer that goes off to lie down after
feeding does not go to sleep, but to
ruminate and take life easy.
Once in great while one falls into
a doze, but almost always the head
is well erect and all senses keen for
danger. And even if. one is in a doze
it may slip away without your sus-
pectiny its existence, for sleep dead
ems little of the senses of this wary
animal. The man who ''wouldn't
shoot such an innocent creature as
deer" should by all means see one
getting out Of a heavy windfall, while
the man who loves game that can
get away can here find the attraction
of the woods at it's climax.

A Remarkable Case.

One OF the3most remarkable cases OF a
cold, deei seated on the lungs, causing
pneumonia, is that OF Mrs. Gertrude E

PLAY BILLIARDS.
French Physicians Are Sorry That
tho Game Is Declining In the
French Halls.

Somebody has discovered that peo-
pie in France are not playing billiards
so much as they did formerly. Over
this announcement has arisen a lam
entatiOn.
Physicians have joined in it as we'll
as lay admirers of the game. They
declare that it's disappearance would
be misfortune from sanitary point
of view.
The game, they say, gives just the
exercise they need to great number
of people who without it would take no
exercise at all. While involving no
severe physical exertion, it keeps the
muscles in shape, stimulates the cir
culation, helps the digestion and re-
quires just enough mental effort to
give the nervous system a rest from
the ordinary worries of life. In proof
OF all of which they cite the good
spirits usually exhibited about bill
lard table.
For elderly people, for the stout
who cannot take much exercise, bill
liards is pronounced an excellent tonic.
So the friends of the game are preach
ing revival of it's popularity.

WOMAN A PESSIMIST.
After Certain Age Their Faoea
show Signs of Mental Worry
and Distress.

The average woman is dyed-in-
the-wool pessimist. Almost every
woman over 80 years of age looks
distressed. Her brows are bent, her
mouth drawn into a tight line, and
there are deep burrows down her
cheeks. She looks exactly as if she
were considering how to provide q
dinner for 25 cents that will satisfy
twenty-five small children, when in
reality she may have nothing more
serious "on her mind than buying 6
pair of socks for George. No wonder
women grow old faster than men,
for they hug their worries to them
and let them show in their faces.
There was once an elderly servant
who was superstitious to degree
and who always expected the worst
to happen. Did she find needle on
the floor, did picture fall in the
house or bird fly into one of the
rooms, she was instantly plunged
into woe. "We're going to have a
heap of bad luck," she would say.
and then she'd be lachrymose until
some one had the tOOthache or the
COWS got into the corn, when she
would consider the demon luck ex-
orcised or satisfied for time and
grow as cheerful as it was her habit
to be. Some one once asked her if
she did not have anv gOOd-lnCk signs.
"Why, certainly" she replied, "but
they don't count don't believe in
the good-luck ones" which. by the
by. is thoroughly characteristic of
the sex.
Here is woman who suifers-suf-
fers is the wOrd-frOm insomnia. 81
can't imagine why I don't sleep" she
says to her friends. I'm sleepy as
anything when l go upstairs, but
then l begin to wonder if my son
Arthur, who travels for drug firm.
is on train, and in a minute I see
him ju2t as plainly bleeding and
m2ng!21 in wreck. When 7 decide
that he is really dead, l think of
John, and worry because he hasn't
better position. Then Molly comes
into my mind, and / feel sure that
one of her children must be i'll. I feel
so blue about her. I fret over Lucy's
throat bit then, and by this time
I'm wide awake. It's the strangest
thing. T don't understand why I
should be so wakeful,"
Her physician does, however, and
now he's prescribing for her course
of checrfulness and of Cooking for
the best" It's medicine that most
women need-their faces show it
but there are few who are sensible
enough to take it.

Unconscious Hum or.

Certificates of death are not docu-
ments where one usually seeks for
humor, but there is frequently to be
found IN them much of the uncon-
scious variety, says Pearson's Week
ly. Here, for instance, is how the
cause of death is stated in the case
of a .aborer: Died from injuries
received through a bull accidentally
kneeling on his chest" The consid-
Grafton shown for the feelings of the
bull is a fine touch, and suggests
grave questions on the moral respon-
sibility of the lower animals. Again,
man is stated to have died from
the effects of injuries received after
being run over by a railroad train
in motion, owing to a misunderstood
ing between deceased and an engine
driver" This description of a rather
ordinary railway casualty is excel
lent; it, too, is so tender toward the
feelings of the living.

WOODEN INDIANS MUST GO.
Tobacco Store Signs That Are Con-
demned to Retirement In
New York City.

One of New York's busy municipal
commissioners says the wooden lndlan
must get off the walk. If the cigar
dealer needs him in his business he will
be obliged to take him inside and give
him house room. Anyway, he cannot
be allowed to cucumber the sidewalk,
saysthe Cleveland Plain Fealer.
Of course it may be possible that the
commissioner is moved By an honest de-
sire to keep the walks clear, and then
again he NAV be under the influence of
the Society for Prevention of Cruelty
to Aged Wooden Indians. And, really,
it must be admitted that there are
eases where interference would seem
to be justified. There are wooden In
dams Of extreme age who are still
forced to do their servile duty at all
seasons Of the year, and in the most
inclement weather. With cramped
muscles and ossifieG limbs they have
stood on guard for many decades.
Many of them are gray and dingy
and wea ther beaten, but they never
complain. Some Of them have cracked
open and lost their feathers, and
warped their fingers, and dropped their
wampum. Why. there are cigar deal
ers so unfeeing as to refuse them even
acoat of paint when the mercury drops
to zero.

Death Caused by MOSQUITO.

Mosquitoes are now charged with
communicating erysipelas as well as
malaria and yellow fever. A New
York physician has issued death
certificate in the case of IA months
old babe. in which he says death
was caused by erysipelas due to the
bite Of a mosquito" 1t is only fair
to the mosquito to record that the
board of health officers refused to
accept the certificate until a coro-
ner's physician had investigated and
concluded that there was no other
apparent cause for the death than
the mosquito bite.-Youth's Compen-
