The upward climb began early in
the day, and despite earnest protests
1t never ceased until o'clock in the

noon the mercury in the thermometers

dream while the dinner bell was fall
ing to the floor.
Every day for several months the
man with the suicidal heredity sat
down after luncheon with the dinner
bell in his hands. Every day he went
to sleep, slept for half a second, while
the bell fell to the floor, and his men
tai condition improved steadily, partly
because Of the rest which his mind
got by losing consciousness for a sec
ond and partly because Of his interest
in the extraordinary dreams which
passed through his brain while the bell
was falling. These dreams carried
him all over the world, and seemed
to last indefinitely. A dozen or more
human beings were mixed up in them.
A long succession Of events, which
were perfectly clear, passed before his
eyes, gradually interrupted by a sound
from a distance, which at first would
mix in with the dream, and ultimately
would prove to be the dinner bell strik-
ing the floor. The ordinary person who
says that he has been dreaming all
night probably does not realize that he
actually dreamed about second and
half while he was waking up.

"A HIGH OLD TIME. :"

The rectory stood vacant, for the
parish was temporarily without a rec
tor; the house, however, was comfort
ably furnished down to the very Vast
detail, and contained even a fairly good
piano. 1t happened one day that d
convention of some kind brought a
large number Of clergymen to the
town. Some Of these were cared for
in private families, but it seemed adj
visable to open the rectory for the ac-
commodation of the overflow The over
flow in this instance consisted of three
rather elderly clergymen, a gentle lot,
with kind, mild eyes and deep, melo-
dious voices, but fully able to hold
their own when anecdotes were flying
back and forth at the banquet.
At this banquet one of the three oc-
cupants of the rectory recognized an
old friend in the man sitting opposite.
"Why, hello, Brown cried he, smil-
ing across the table. How do you do?
It must be all of ten years since I've
seen YOU"
1T u.s." returned Brown. eve been
hoping all the morning to get word
with YOU
"Well, I'll tell you how to accomplish
it. I'm 'baching' it with Crane and
Ruggles here, at the rector. Come up
tonight and We'll just have a high old
time"
This invitation was overheard by a
young member Of the Brotherhood Of
st. Andrew, who grew instantly curl
Gus to know more of the thigh old
time" these four jolly old follows were
planning to have, for he rather liked
"a high old time" himself.
About 10 o'clock that night the
young man, with an equally inquisitive
companion, approached the rectory and
crept stealthily through the shrubbery.
There was a sound Of revelry within,
and the two young men hopefully
pressed close to the window, and looked
eagerly in to see what was going on
inside
The white-haired clergyman named
Brown was seated, with his wrinkled,
awkward old fingers outspread over
the keys Of the piano. Behind him
stood the other three. All four, with
their fine old heads thrown back, were
singing hymns with all their honest
souls and with very evident enjoy

kOW INDIANS HUNT DEER.
They Corral Animals and Kill the
Whole Herd.

1.-THE Indians Of British Columbia
have evolved a system for hunting
deer that shows practical skill and
sympathy with natural conditions"
said a scientist of the Smithsonian In
stitute to a Washington Star man.
'The Indians, to begin with, do not
hunt deer for the pleasure of hunting.
They go for deer as housekeeper goes
to the market for beef. And what's
more, In British Columbia, at any rate.
they do not go often. Salmon are plen-
tiful in the rivers and easily caught.
So why chase animals when they can
secure fish. 1t is something as it Is in
Newfoundland, where [ went a corple
Of seasons ago. There the prevailing
fish, as you might say, is cod. And
though there is no end to the variety Of
edible fish that can be taken, the ma
tives never think of eating anything
else. Cod is plentiful and they form
the habit, | suppose. This is so in
grained that they call Goldfish fish sim
ply. The genus is divided into cod
and the rest of fish.
"Well, when the British Columbia
Indian makes up his mind for yenison
he goes at it Systematically and with
out sentiment. A group Of half a doz-
EN- men split and take either end of a
valley. Then they proceed along the
mountain slope from two ends to the
center. They choose the sheltered side.
of the valley, which the deer seek to
escape the wind. Each party covers
the mountain side some at the foot and
some at the top, and others between
the line, keeping abreast by an imi-
tated owl boot. The deer on winding
pursuit have trick of leaping away
down the slope, unlike the goats which
go up, and thus between the two ap-
preaching parties they are swept to-
gether in the middle of the valley. A
good-sized herd will thus be killed off
and the Indians are supplied for MANY
weeks by two or three days exertion.
