Tuck Shirred Yoke Waist.

There is a peculiar charm found IN
the simple blouse shirrcd to form a
yoke that renders 1t a deserved and
certain favorite. This one is graceful
in the extreme and can be made high
at the neck with long sleeves or low
with sleeves OF elbow length, so becom-
ing practically two models. All really
fashionable materials are soft and well
adapted TO the shirrings and conse-
quently the opportunity for making a
satisfactory choice is ample. Dotted

is the combination illustrated, and very
charming 1t is, but there Gre many
other silks equally desirable, and the

KNOW NOTHING OF SYMPATHY
That Feeling Beyond Lower Animals,
Says John Burrough.

An Iowa correspondent asks me 20
give him my opinion as TO whether or
not any of the dumb animals have
sympathy. says John Burrough in Out
ing, and added that a minlster at a
funeral in their town had said that no
animal except man was capable OF
sympathy. | agree with the minister.
Sympathy, | think, is beyond the low
or animals. When we sympathize
with person we put ourselves in his
or her place; we feel sorry for him;
we pity him; we would gladly allevi-
ate his suffering-all of which implies
more or less Imagination and disin-
terested regard Susceptibility to the
sufferings of others is one OF many
higher attributes. When sympathy
was born the race lifted above the
purely animal plane.
The next step is taking the suffer
ings Of others upon yourself, which Is
the highest form of altruism. Pure
selfshness rules the lower animals.
and necessarily so. Sympathy is not
necessary for the continuance Of the

is Animals certainly have a feeling
of comradeship for each other, and ex-
perience something like grief at sepa-
ration, yet a dog or a cat or a horse
or a COW will sniff a. the dead body OF
its dead fellow with apparent uncon-
cern. A cry of distress among the
birds will bring every bird within
hearing to the spot, and cause them
to be more or less agitated, but 1t is
only because they are alarmed for
their own safety; a common enemy
may be about. In the herd and the
flock a sick or wounded member is
often fallen upon by its fellows and
destroyed.
II any animal ever experienced the
emotion we call sympathy 1t is, OF
course, the dog The dog has so long
been the companion Of man that he
often shows in his nature a trace OF
the purely human.

BTNTATU NIAGARA.

Under the cataract of Niagara. from
an opening beneath the Horseshoe
Falls TO pit sunk behind Golfer
dam in the bed of the river two thou
sand feet upstream. n tunnel has been
bored as an outlet for one of the new
electrical development companies. Its
construction was made possible. says
The World o-Day, by two OF the
most thrilling Journeys ever under
taken 10y workmen.
When the big tunnel-it Is twenty
six feet high. and twenty-three feet
wide-was to be begun. neither end of
it was within the reach of the engi-
ncers, for one was seven hundred feet
out from shore. behind the veil of the
falls, where no man had ever been,
and the other was one hundred and
fifty feet beneath the cascades. An
approach tunnel was therefore drift
cd out from shore. one hundred and
flfty-cight feet below ground, under
the brink of the falls, toward the site
selected for the portal.
TO avoid bringing all material TO the
surface for dumping. the engineers
had side tunnel bored TO empty be-
meath the falls. Where it opened lay
n huge pile of debris. and rs soon as
the opening was made spray from this
pile began TO fill the tunnel 1t came
In so fast that work was abandoned.
Pumps were started, but still the wa

in the shaft on shore. 1t looked then
as II the whole enterprise on which n
fortune had been spent, would be q
failure.
Then three foremen employed on the
work volunteered TO 90 through the
tunnel in skiff and blow away the
debris. They Sc .-"--ed punt from the
Maid of the Mist and lowered IL down
the shaft. The water was within two
feet Of the roof OF the tunnel. but they
determined 10 make the Journey. They
loaded their boat with dynamite and
electric wire and enough iron TO sink
IL till IL would allow them 10 move
along the tunhel. Then lying on their
backs. they pushed the boat along the
waterway by pressing against the roof
with hands and feet. Their progress
was slow. and their situation, directly
below the mighty Niagara. was as ap-
palling as II was unique But they
perscvered. and Mt last reached the
portal through which the water was
entering.
Only a tiny opening was left there.

they are more than unusually ugly,
and as the young cubs are produced In
the spring a she bear Will give hunt
er all the excitement he wants. a
good grizzly will weigh about eight
hundred pounds. They can trave!
over the ground very fast, and n hunt
or who has not a shot left in his gun
in case OF emergencies will often be in
q bad box.
James Brewster and Fred Husscy
last year went grizzly hunting at Big
Bend. They made their camp on the
Big Shlngle Flats. and then waited In
camp until late In the afternoon. In
the middle Of the day one might travel
through that section and never see a
sign Of bear, but as soon as the sun
gets down so that the shadows cover
the slides the bears come out 10 feed
on the wild potato that grows there
In abundance. The valley at Big Bend
is twelve miles long. and toward even
ing bear can be seen on almost every
slide. Untll molested, these big ami
mails will as n rule let the hunter alone,
and often run away from man. But
when wounded a bear will put up the
prettiest fight one wants 10 see.
Brewster and Hussey started out to
look for bear, and about sixty or sew
enty yards from their camp found n
big she bear. which they at once decid-
cd they wanted. The bear had just
come out OF the woods. and the wind
was blowing from the bear toward the
hunter, so that she was unsuspicious
OF the trouble in store for her. Both
men dropped into a cutting, and as
soon as the bear got into n favOrite
position. Hussey fired. The shot was
little low, and striking the bear in the
forcleg broke IT,
The bear let out n growl. snapped
vlclously at the bushes and looked
around 10 see what caused the trouble.
but the hunter had dropped out of
sight. IIusscy fired again, and this
time the bullet struck the bear fairly
In the ribs. and again she hOwlcd with
the pain and terror, but did not stop
going toward where Iussey and
Brewster were hiding. At the third
shot. which also hit her, she dscov-
cred the men and went for them on the
run. Four shots from the magazine
rifle were poured into her, but al
though all hit not one stopped the bear
and IIusscy who was doing the firing,
began to breathe hard.
The bear was getting nearer than
he liked, and when she was only eight
or nine feet away two. more shots
rolled her ovNr. The bear rolled down
into n creek and started to float down
with the current. Brewster went In
the creek after her and she made q
pass at him with her paw that caused
him to draw back. He followed the
bear for about half an mile before she
died. Then the body was hauled
ashore. the head and feet cut off and
saved. The skin was not in good
shape, so the hunters let 1t go.
During that trip to Big Bend these
two men saw twenty eight bears in
seven days. and OF these they shot
nine. and not one OF these was more
than half a mile from their camp.
