Then for his education in knowledge
of men and in the acquisition of skill in

be seen from the courthouse cupola

as an observer and leader of men and

was afforded him by his daily business

The school child's definition of the
equator Is "a menagerie lion run
ming around the world through Afri-
ca" indicates the common associa-
tion of the lion with that continent,
whereas lions were and still are
common in what was once Assyria,
and in other parts of the faraway
East. But most of the lions brought
to Europe and this country really
do come from Africa, and are big
ger, better looking, of better condi-
ton and more decided traits of
character than the lions of other
parts of the world. Some Of the
African specimens in the Adam
Forepaugh-Sells Brothers menager-
lie are of the highest type yet pub
licly exhibited.

magnificent creatures are ferocions,
even in their free state. They are

To The Voters of Sauk County.

I feel that it is but fair to you
and Justice to myself to set forth
the reasons why I appeal for your
support for a denomination to the
office of county clerk. l do not ask
for something unreasonable or for
something that has not been done
before. Other county clerks have
labored hard for the public, but I
believe all of you will agree with me
that none have had such exception
al burdens thrown upon them as
have come to me.
AS is well known, all the labor
spent upon the November 1904 ses-
sion of the county board was wiped
out by the court house fire, and il
became necessary for me to repro
duce these records as nearly perfect
as possible. At the same time all
the many duties of the Office had to
| be attended to, mixed with the NOV
ing into temporary quarters and
providing them with the conven-
fences necessary for the conduct of
the county's affairs. Then came
the work in connection with the
erection of the new court house,
and more recently has been added
the primary election, doubling the
work required of the county clerk
in that line.
Altogether, with the final act OF
moving back into the Offices of the
new court house, these details have
required and continue to call for an
amount of work far in excess OF
anything ever contemplated as like
ly to come within the scope of any
one term of this Office.

The rabbit is simply hypnotized in

However, weasels are not lions,
any more than snakes are weasels--

numbing or hypnotic power; and in

Livingston did not come back to a
waking realization of his lacerated
arm and shoulder for several min
utes after.
Many times later DR.. Livingston
noticed the evidences of this same
state of quiet in animals that were
being killed by lions. The terror of
the victims always gave way to
quiet submission after the first con-
tact. The same sort of anaesthetic
power seems to be shared by all the
cat tribe, down to the common
house cat. The efforts of mouse
to escape from a cat grow weaker
and weaker until they cease; or
almost cease, and the cat won't kill
until the mouse is quiet. There is
in this an evidence of natures care
for the weaker in the war of life
upon life that seems to be necess-
ary to the continuance of existence
on those lower animal planes where
the weaker must die that the strong
er may live. A strange exercise of
this power is shown in the case of
the rabbit and the weasel. A rabbit
could outspeed weasel with ease
if it had the power to run away.
But when weasel has started after

by a bad shot. A wild lion will US
ually look at man and then walk
away and leave him. But if shot
stings him, or an attempt at cap
ture is made, he will fight to the
best of his very respectable ability,
and won't try to get away unless
he comes off best. A wounded wild
lion will die fighting, and never give
up SO long as life is left, wherein
he parallels the quality that is most
admired in soldier.
Very few people know that this
animal inficts death with a mini
mum of pain. DR.. David Livingston,
the great Scotch missionary and
explorer, was once stricken down
by a lion that some of his men had
wounded, and in telling the story in
his first book of African travels, he
says that while he lay under the
creatures paws, in expectation of
instant death, he had no feeling
other than one of pleasant dream
mess, with only a faint conscious
ness of his wounds. The men had
rushed to his rescue, and the lion
had paused to look up at them. In
a few seconds the men had speared
