TIGER HUNTING.


tating Monkey.
To call tiger the proceeding was as
follows: The mikir, having first ascer-
tanned that tiger was in the neighbor-
hood, would climb into well branch
ed, .leafy tree situated near where he
supposed the tiger to be, and after hid
ing himself among the branches as best
he could would commence to initiate
the chattering of a monkey and break
and drop twigs in the way that mon
keys do.
Then he would let fall to the ground
a bundle of rags weighted so that the
thud when it struck the ground would
sound as if a baby monkey had tum-
bled down from the tree, and at the
same time would initiate the supposed
baby monkey cries. This would be the
supreme moment, for if tiger were
near it would often spring out In the
hope of swapping up such dainty
morsel as young monkey, and then a
bullet from the gun of the hidden mikir
might find its billet in the tigers body.
By this means the mikir was said to
have killed considerable number of
tigers, and certainly the mans power
of mimicry was wonderfully good.
The call for deer was Of an entirely
different nature, the sound initiated be-
ing the cry of fawn. and as this cry
sometimes attracted tigers, too, it had
to be adopted with caution, because it
was used only in open grass land, from
which the caller would not have had
much chance to escape were tiger
suddenly to put in an appearance

FLYING Fish.

Flying fish are very voracious. In
their turn they are preyed upon by
barracudas. sharks, dolphins, billfsh,
reddish and hundred and one others.
Nature has colored the flying fish pro-
tectively. The back is deep blue,
merging into the blue of the seas they
frequent, so that they are invisible a
few feet below the surface, while the
underneath is a dazzling white, and to
fish that looks upward must merge
into the light falling on the sea. In ad-
dition they possess the unique power
of flight. Flying fish are about seven
inches long, and the spread of wings
is about equal to their length. The
wing is Of thin, gauzy substance,
having stiffening sinews. like the fiber
Of leaf, to strengthen it.

THE MAD DOG FALLAcY.


Treat Bite.
In all my own experience with dogs
have not only never seen mad
dog" but have never known a dog
owner-and by that mean a man who
has had experience in keeping dogs
who has seen one. If, then, rabies Is
so exceedingly scarce, hydrophobia be-
comes really an impossibility, and the
fear of it should be dismissed without
thought.
A person may get dog bitten; but, in
the language Of the New York tough,
Forget it." If it is a bad bite it may
twitch later on, and you may begin
worrying, SO 1t is a good plan to get
rid of the twitching or throbbing in
order to forget I have been bitten 80
often that I think no more of it than
a mosquito bite, and this is what do:
If it Is on the hand put it under
the faucet and wash thoroughly. with
the object of cleaning the wound and
preventing Inflammation from any dirt
or foreign substance. While doing this
some one is getting the bicarbonate
Of Soda and some clean rags or lint.
With water cream paste Of the soda
Is made sufficient to plaster the wound
well; then, putting some on rag, 1t Is
applied to the wound and bound up.
If in the course of an hour or more
the application seems to be drying,
little water is poured on the bandage
to soak through to the soda or the
hand dipped In water.-James Watson
