He was between the two animals, and
concluded it would be wiser not to
shoot the lion. Putting the spurs to
his horse, he rode at the lion, trusting
he could scare him into the brush. But
the lion was not to be bluffed and
made grab for him as he rode past,
fastening his claws in the horses
flank. The frightened horse gave a
great bound and Bergman hit the lion
over the face with a rope lariat which
he had in his hand, and succeeded in
breaking the beasts hold.
AS he did SO he put more cartridges
into his revolver, and then commenced
race such as he would not care to

the bear that it could not catch him.

throat, killing it. The other dog was
badly torn, but will not die.

REPORTED OF RAILWAYS.

Railroads in Argentina are making
favorable progress, it is reported, un-
der the direction of English capital
lists.
For several years q record has been
kept of the wear of locomotive wheels
on the Danish state railways. The
single drivers are found to run better
than four-coupled. the latter better
than six-coupled, and in all cases wear
is increased by fimsiness Of road.

treir fiscal year ending with March

increase. This is nearly s30.000,C00
more than was estimated when the
year began, there having been mean
while marked improvement In busi-
ness in the country.
The German government railroad
exhibit at the St. Louis fair shows the
block system and switch signals now
in use in Germany. More than 1900
feet of track. IL the construction of
which both iron and wooden ties were
used, have been laid. There are q sta

intermediate block signal post.
Since 1880 the population Of the
south has increased about 60 per cent,
while Its manufactured products have
increased by PSI per cent. Railroad
mileage has increased 191 per cent,
and the production of pig iron 731 per
cent. In the coal industry alone the
output has jumped since 1880 from
$4,000 annually to $62.000O00 The
development has been steady in all
lines

their iron and motors. their machinery,

BUILDING FOOD
To Bring the Babies Around.

When little human machine (or a
large one) goes wrong, nothing is so
important as the selection of food
which will always bring it around
again.
my little baby boy fifteen months
old had pneumonia, then came brain
fever, and no sooner had he got over
these than he began to cut teeth and,
being SO weak, he was frequently
thrown into convulsions,' says a
Colorado mother
Il decided change might help, so
took him to Kansas City for a visit.
When we got there he was so very
weak when he would cry he would
sink away and seemed like he would
die.
when reached my sisters nome
she said Immediately that we must
feed him Grape-Nuts and, although
had never used the food, we got some
and for a. few days gave him just the
juice of Grape-Nuts and milk. He got
stronger so quickly we were soon
feeding him the Grape-Nuts itself and
in wonderfully short time he fat
tened right up and became strong and
well.
THAT showed me something worth
knowing and, when later on my girl
came, I raised her on Grape-Nuts and
she is strong, healthy baby and has
been. You will see from the little
photograph send you what strong,
chubby youngster the boy is now, but
he didn't look anything like tnat be-
fore we found this nourishing food.
