A CITY HUNTERS LESSON.
Met with Something of Surprise While Out in the Woods Stalk
 ing for Deer.

five been a deer hunter all my life and guide in the Wisconsin woods for a quarter of a century, but never took advantage of one of the animals, said old Abe Glennon, who came down from the pine forests recently for a short stay in Chicago, reports the Chron- icle. ''I always give deer a chance for his life, and I won't steer party that wants to go on a slaughterin9 ex- petition.
 Last November a Chicago Tarty came up to my lodge to hunt deer for week. They were all good sports men, but one fellow. and he had never been out of the city before, or acted as if he hadn't. After we had hunted one day and failed to bring down a buck or doe, this fellow, who had heard few hunting stories, wanted to go stalking with a bull's-eye. I told him l wouldn't stand for anything like that, but he was anxious, and we told him to go ahead
 "The other members of the party knew he was going, and they asked me if there was any way of playing a trick on the new hunter. I told them to take piece of stovepipe and put two lighted candles in it. They did so, and we took it out into the bush and fas- tened it between the forks of a sapling. When I got back to the lodge I told the fellow where to go to find big buck at night. He took his repeating rifle and the bulls eye lantern and dis appeared in the night, but not until had told him to fire a little below the two lights, which he would know were the deer's eyes.
 About half an hour later heard the cracking of a rifle and the other men laughed and said the stalker had got his bull's-eye at work. Before they had finished the sentence the rifle cracked again. Then came a dozen shots in rapid succession. As soon as the man could load the rifle the rattling fire was resumed. He kept this up until all his ammunition was gone A few minutes after the firing ceased he came running at break-neck speed to the lodge. He was scared half to death, and his breath came in gasps.
 Ibid you get one| cholused the party.
 "'There's a whopping big buck or something out there in the brush, the fellow said, between gasps, but I couldn't touch him. don't know how many times I shot at him, and ] didn't
 Maybe it's the ghost of deer, old man Ames sneaked up on and killed. Lots of stalkers have seen it at night, I said.
 The fellow never said a word more. He put out the light in the bulls eye, stood his rife up in the corner, and went to bed. That's the only way to treat man who goes stalking deer with a bulls eye. It's murder, that's what it is, and I've never been guilty of it."

 But there is a cynical suggestion in all of the things that you write that object to- although I don't think I should, for I 0m rather cyn- ical, too"
 ''I think that is natural at our time of life" he remarked, absent mindedly.
 She broke into peal of laughter in which he joined. That was a pretty speech, wasn't it?' he said. ''But, after all, it's a very good time of life. I meant that we had out lrown few boyish and girlish illu- sions and that l should imagine we both saw clearer. That is sometimes called cynicism. In other respects, time has-well, don't know whether it has improved you, but l certainly never saw you look more charming That is saying great deal, too. No, I'm not fiattering. l think there's a touch of gray in your hair"

DYE THEIR OWN PRODUCT.
Silkworms of Various Shades DeveI- OPed by Recent Experiments
 in France.

The following report is made by United States Consul Atwell at Rou- baix: Messrs. Conte and Levrat have recently been making experiments with silkworms, which have resulted, it is said, in the production of CO., eoons of varied shades, reports the Philadelphia Record.
 The ordinary cocoon is white, vel low, or sometimes green The ques- tion to be solved is why different colors should be produced by similar species, and whether 1t is the direct result of the food taken by the worm. If this coloring matter comes from the leaves fed to the worms, Messrs. Conte and Leyrat considered that it should be easy to color their food artificially and thus secure different shades of cocoons, though several naturalists have attempted to prove the impossibility of coloring matter passing from the intestines of the worm into the silk-producing glands.
 The worms which served for their experiments were placed on branches of privet, washed over with red. They ate the leaves without prejudice, and when the larvae began to spin the cocoon the silk was bright red. When fed on leaves colored blue, the silk worms produced a slightly bluish silk. The species that produces or dinarily yellow cocoon, when fed upon leaves colored red brings forth deep orange. The original yellow, it is said, is due to the pigment in the leaves of the mulberry.

WHO SMILES IN THE RAIN.

The coward may smile When there's sun all the while It's braver to smile in the rain. Tie weakest may joy When there's naught to annoy He's stronget who smiles through his
 pain And then when there's sun, when there's
 bird-song and breeze, When Glooms put to rout and Discour-
 agement fees, What need has the world Of the mouth corners curled In the cheeriest smiles when the fields and
 trees Are smiling so broadly that nobody sees The wee bit of brightness you're giving
 the while But days when it's rainy there's need for
 your smile. Tho ,weakling may smile When there's brightness the while It's better to smile when there's rain. @The gloomster may joy When there's naught to annoy He's brave who can laugh through his
 pain When all the wide world Is so full song That birds sing and brooklets go warbling
 along. With hearts light as chaff All the earth seems to laugh The sunny-day courage says not you are
 strong, Though hearty good cheer one could never
 call wrong But. oh, when the day is all haegard and
 gray And Nature weeps gloomiy, sobbing
 away Then laugh in the hope of the sweet after
 while; On days when it's rainy there's need for
 your smile. -S w Gillian, in Baltimore American. Fifteen hundred people were found 10 have blown in their money on a matrimonial bureau in St. Louis. There must be few other schemes that haven't yet been bit cn by the confding.
