Tne IDEAL FAMILY LAXATIVE

is one that can be used by the entire family, young and old, weak and strong, without any danger of harmful efDect8. It should have properties which insure the same dose, always having tho same effect, otherwise the quantity will have to be increased and finally looe it's effect altogether. These properties can be found in that old family rem- edy, Brandreth's Pills, because its in- gredients are of the purest herbal ex- tracts, and every pill is kept for three years before being sold, which allows them to mellow. We do not believe there is A laxative on the market that is SO carefully made.
 BrandrethS Pills are the same fine laxative tonic pill ybar grandparents used. They have been in use for over a century and are sold in every drug and medicine store, either plain or sugar-coated.

the meshes and contrived to get the lower strands twisted about it in such a manner that all his furious strugglings could not release it.
 Another of these men found similar noise to be caused by two fighting stags which were pol<ing away at each other through the fence. At his approach one of them made off, but the other had his antlers stuck through the wide opening near the top and could neither withdraw them nor go forward before the man had put a long knife into his heart from be- hind the shoulder.
 Hunters find that many of the deer have injured their forelegs by paving at these fences, in the attempt to break a way through, as the creatures are ac- customed to force a passage through the creepers and tangles of their native woods. The curious part of it is that the deer have not the slightest difficulty in jumping over the fences when they de- sire to do 'so though in the first few months numbers of them were severely injured by leaping short, as though they could not see the height of the wire
 The bears have learned to let the fence alone and to cross when necessary by climbing a stout post, though curious things sometimes happen when a fence Is encountered as they are hurrying away from danger.
 For instance, a very large she bear was running before the hunters with her cub when she came to the wire fence. The little fellow scrambled through, under the influence of gentle cuffiing from the old one.
 The mother herself made the mistake of trying to struggle through one of the large meshes, about two feet by nine inches. She forced her shoulder through and by that time had torn the fastenings out of the posts either side of that paneling. making the fence sag. so that she could not get enough purchase upon them to smash the several wires
 Instead she managed to get wedged into the mesh and to twist herself up so that she was found completely caught when her pursuers came along The little chap was doing his best to help by hanging onto his mothers forepaw with his teeth and endeavoring to pull her through forci- bly, for which attempted kindness he was receiving anything but thanks
 There was another big. black fellow. who, being hard pressed, ran against the wires with such vigor as to be sent

HEAD WORK" IN ATHLETICS.
Intelligence Will Often Win Over
 BraWn in a Match.

Ralph D. Paine in "The Sporting Cham
 pions of the Year." in the November Everybody's,
 Intelligence may be linked with courage as a common factor of athletic prowess. Years of experience and the efforts of multitudes of strong men have evolved in every field of sport certain lines of action by means of which the most efficient re- suits can be obtained with the least waste of exerton. Such lines of action which set the standard of the right way to do the athletic act, are called form" It is the special province of the coach and the trainer to teach form and the pupil who is quick to grasp these fundamentals and retentive in using them, has an ad- vantage over his slower -witted rival from the start He proves anew that mind is greater than muscle, and he is in fair way to win championships,

back with considerable force by the re- bound. As soon as he recovered his wits he essayed to chamber over the fence ladder style.
 Across the top he fell. as has many a human animal, and in trying to save himself by his prehensile hind foot, got that twisted through a mesh, so that he hung head down. As he struggled to regain his equilibrium the sharp claws of the protrudng hind foot scratched his neck and he snapped viciously at the offending member, and when secured had badly chewed his own foot.
 curious thing was noticed not far above Burbridge station this line. A 2-year-old COW moose came up to a fence, apparently for the first time. She smelled at the obstacle. paved at it. tried squeez- ing her ungainly head through it. pushed hard against it and finally jumped easily and not ungracefully over it.
 Then she examined the wires from that side with great deliberaton. For b min utes or so afterward she amused herself by leaping over 1t as speedily as possible. Whether this was done in derision or by way of practice did not appear, but the grave soemnity with which she per formed her gymnastic exercise made the performance the most amusing to tho onlookerS.
 This COW moose exhibited good deal more common sense than did a big bull moose, who was thrown back with a good deal of force as he was swinging at an easy trotting gait through the open hard- wood bush. Without waiting for investi- gation he rushed savagely at the obstacle. and, lifting both feet, brought them down with tremendous force on the topmost wire.
 Again and again he repeated his blows, making little or no impression upon the fence. At last one of his forefeet passed through the wide second mesh up to the knee and looped itself about the strand below.
 The maddened brute roared with fury and tugged and twisted until he had torn himself free. but had also disocated his shoulder. All through the next winter he was seen lingering about the vicinity mere wreck. emaciated and limping upon three legs.
