CHASED BY PACK OF WOLVES.

Mad Race for Life by Travellers in
 Country North of Winnipeg.
 w. E. Johnson, inspector of the Bell Telephone Company, and J. H. Amey, traveller, had a terrible experience while driving in Stony Mountain.
 When about six miles from Winni- peg they noticel a pack of eighteen wolves following behind on the trail. They stopped, and the pack took to the bushes, and for some little distance they were not seen again. Johnson happened to glance behind. him. and saw gray form running along in the bush at the side of the road. Another and another crossed an open space, so the men put the whip to their horses
 This was the turning point. With yelps and yells the wolves came out into the open and galloped after the sleigh. It was a race for life, the men being unarmed and practically helpless. All they could do was to lash their horses
 Gradually the wolves gained on the team, and as they came within reach Johnson beat at the wolves, while Am ey slasheo the horses. For three miles | the race continued. Each moment the men thought, their end had come, but ! when the horses had almost fallen with exhaustion they reached a settle l ment in Stony Mountain. and the 1 wolves sunk off into the bush.
 Many residents saw the retreating
 pack, and the torn robes hanging from l the back of the sleigh were evidence of

Rat Found in Bunch of Bananas.

A peculiar kind of a rat was found in
bunch of bananas at Kellogg & Je-
rome's store at Montpelier recently. A
strange noise was heard in the bunch as
it was being removed from the crate.
and on opening it the one stranger was
found. 1t had every appearance of a
rat. 1t was six inches long and had
a tail twelve inches in length. Part of
the tail from the body was covered with
hair, while the rest resembled the tail of
a rat. The body was covered with a
banana hued hair Those who claimed
to know what it was called it banana
rat, and said they grew where bananas
were raised and were tame. The little
animal had feet that resembled hand
more than anything else. 1t evidently
had a good time on the journey as some
of the bananas near the top of the bunch
were cleaned out. The rat had long,
sharp nose, which permitted him to get
inside banana several inches without
endangering his chances of escape.

The Deadly Current.

Jesse H. Martin was killed at the
station of the Bethel Electric Light and
Power Co. April 18th. Mr.. Martin was
assistant superintendent. Mrs Boyce
heard the telephone call for the station
at her home, which is connected, and
went to the phone thinking some one
might be calling her husband, who is
the superintendent. She heard no
answer to the call and at once realized
that something must be the trouble at
the station which is about one fourth of
a mile distant. She hurried there and
found Mr.. Martin lying on the floor, by
the Randolph line switch. DR.. L. NJ.
Greene was summoned but life had been
extinct several minutes.
Mr.. Martin came to Bethel about six
months ago. His home was at Canton,
N. Y, where his father lives. He also
leaves a sister in Norwood, N. Y, and
one in Bethel.
Burns on Martins hands led to the
supposition that he received a fatal
shock of electricity while trying to ad-
just fuse.

Good Roads in Your Eye

remarks as follows: IF speechmakers

work, by mouth and pen, we would soon
have the whole Green Mountain State
Nc \ damized. But this won't do it. 1t
will take work and lots of money to pay
for the work. Where is the money to
come from? Are these fellows that are
everlastingly talking about it going to
furnish it! Not much. They are trying
to feather thor own political nest by
throwing good roads in the peoples
eyes y ST p should certainly be put

The time-worn injunction, "Never put
off till tomorrow what you can do to-
day." is now generally presented in this
form: ''Do it today That is the terae
advice we want to give you about that
hacking cough or demoralizing cold with
which you have been struggling for
several days, perhaps weeks. Take some
reliable remedy for it ToDAY-and let
that remedy be DR.. Boschee's German
Syrup, which has been in use for over
35 years. A few doses of it Will undoubt-
eddy relieve your cough or cold, and its
continued use for few days will cure
you completely. No matter how deep
seated your cough, even if dread con.
sumption has attacked your lungs.
German Syrup will surely effect cure
as it has done before in thousands of
apparently hopeless cases of lung trouble.
