 When the postman brought Mrs. Cum mings her weekly letter from her old school friend, she held 1t, unopened, for a moment, and addressed her husband, who would have preferred to finish his morning paper in peace.
 Thomas" said Mrs. Cummings, Thomas, you'll have to read 1t for me 1; you know both pairs of my glasses are at the opticians. You ought to be glad, when you don't have to wear them," she added, moved to reproach by her husbands expression.
 "Oh, of course am glad, delighted '" said MT. Cummings, hastily; and he proceeded to read, with many inter. ruptions, an account of the doings In Mrs. Lanes family, which might be supposed to interest her friend.
 "I thought so," said Mrs. Cummings, when the letter had been read, even to Yours affectionately, Mary J. Lane" 'She never mentions that green-gage plum receipt I've asked her for it in every letter since April 12th, and here 1t Is June. Next time I shall write pretty severely. If she's losing her memory she might as well realize 1t, and keep my letters at hand when she answers"
 "Hullo, there seems to be an extra slip in here," said MT. Cummings, as something in the envelope interfered with the return of the letter to It's GOV. ering. He took out the slip and read
 "'When you send me Anna Conant's address, for which I've asked you in every letter since April 8th, I shall be glad to forward the green-gage recipe Perhaps your husband will help-'er- My dear, there's most interesting let ter from Madrid in the paper.

For cnvusands of years men have wondered how it is that birds fly so easily. They have tried h vain to hni. tate them. The best they can do Is to go up by the aid of a balloon and try to direct the balloon in Its curse. Certain birds are known 70 have flown across the Atlantic ocean, a distance of 5000 miles, without resting and without the aid of any balloon what. ever. No one would believe that birds could fly the way they do but for the fact that they see them at 1t every day. Under no circumstances can man figure how 1t would be possible for him to sustain himself in the air as a hawk or an eagle or a water fowl or a yul. with wings and feathers. It seems that he would not have the strength. And yet the strength of these creatures of the air does not seem to be so very much greater in proportion to size than the strength of a man. But let's look at the matter in another light. An owl can see by night much better than In the day. The same Is true of the leopard and other beasts of the forests. It has been proven by sci. entists that certain animals can per ceive ultraviolet rays with the naked eye, whereas man cannot. It is not only certain that the lower animals have some of their five senses more highly developed than man, but some scientists believe that they have senses which man has not How else Is 1t that certain animals can tell of the approach of storm while the sky Is yet clear and tranquil? They have also been known to act queerly some hours before earthquakes or other seismic disturbances of which man had no foreknowledge whatever There are certain animals whose actions will always foretell the approach of a cold snap. Is It any wonder that in an- cent times many animals were wor. shipped as sacred? And while we at. tribute to the lower animals senses which we do not possess, and for which we even have no name, is 1t not reasonable to imagine that birds understand some law of nature that permits the almost total disregard of the law of gravitation which has never before this time been even conjectured? If this happens to be dull day with you, here's something worth puzzling your head about little.

HUNTED BY A COUGAR.
Narrow Escape of Man Who Thought These Beasts Harmless.


 Most hunters and naturalsts say that the cougar will not hunt man, writes Charles J. Lisle in Outdoor Life. l thought so for fifteen years, then learned l was wrong. l came near learning it just a second too late.
 l had been fishing In a small stream in Northern Idaho, and was about to start for home when saw a large cou- gar cross an open space between two trees. I had hunted cougars for years and thought 1 could safely despise them, even though unarmed. So I went on.
 But this cougar was different from others It came out to meet me. l mo- toned as if to throw a stick at it.
 Still It crept nearer, snarling and showing Its teeth as 1t lattened itself In the grass. I ran few steps toward It, hoping to frighten 1t. Instead It crouched for a spring, for l was not more than a rod away.
 Thoroughly frightened, I yelled at the top of my voice. No panther ever screamed more horribly, nor in such deadly earnest. That was effective, for the beast dashed back into the wood in fright, while lost no time in returning to camp.
 Securing my rife, carefully retraced my path up the stream where I had seen the cougar. As I intended to prospect the country for several days, l dared not risk the animal attacking me again unprepared.
 walked through the heavy windfall timber with rifle cooked and ready for instant use. But I saw no sign of the cougar. I crept over logs, following the course of the stream, up beyond where I thought I had heard the bel | lowing of cattle.
 Still I found nothing. l was obsti- nately pressing forward when I felt a premonition, an overpowering lncllna' 1 ton to look backward. The look came near being my last.
 The cougar was hunting me. There on the log had just climbed over and just In the act of springing on my back was the largest cougar had ever seen. Silent and sure as shadow It had followed my trail, waiting for just this moment. Already It was contracting its muscles as swung my rifle | around.
 There was no time to aim. With a quick snapshot I fired at the creature jerked the lever of the gun desper- ately to throw In another cartridge and braced myself for the shock.
 The shock did not come. The one bullet had done the work of death The cougar, with its back broken, hung helpless across the log, unable to finish the spring 1t had begun.
 In its agony 1t seized young pine tree growing beside the log and made its great teeth meet in the tough wood The tree was us large as Il mans leg. I have the cougar skin as a trophy with only two seconds between us ir | the race for its ownership, I count il as a prize worth keeping. And I gc 1 no more unarmed out Into the great l woods, with the words of naturalists as my only protection against wild beasts 1 much prefer a good rife.

BABCOCK SAILOR
DEAD IN HARBOR
JAPANESE ATTEMPTS TO LEAVE
LINES AND Is DROWNED.

Toma Ichi Sin, a japanese sailor who
was drowned last night in an attempt
to desert the ship, according to the
stories of the captain, members of the
crew and the ships mates. His body
was picked up early this morning by
men of the Babcock and brought ashore
in one of the ships boats.
Several of the Japanese sailors of the
BabcOck We're I'm swimming alongside
the vessel, which lies with her stern
within a few fathoms of the reef, last
evening. The mate noticed Toma:
Ichi sitting on the bottom rung of a
rope ladder kicking his feet in the wa
ter and thought he was going in swim
ming with the rest. Later about 6
o'clock, Toma was seen attempting to
get ashore by way of the Babcock's
stern lines.
The presumption is that the sailor
could not swim and fell from the moor
ings.
Captain, Stinson of the Babcock is
playing in hard luck. His vessel put
in here two weeks ago in distressJ
needing foot and having been 1879 days
at sea from Baltimore. Several Of the
crew were sent to the hospital with
scurvy and the ship was libelled by
her men for damages. He signed on a
Japanese crew and has daily hoped to
get away. He may get away tomor-
row.
