The lake was rather on the window

fish lay motionless. not far from shore.
The Siwash skated over it. The sturgeon
moved off slowly, the Indian keeping
directly above. The fish gathered speed.

following every turn of the quarry. The
sturgeon now became panic stricken and
the chase was on in earnest. Out to the
deeps, back to the shadows sped the
fish wildly, with every turn and curve and
angle that the ingenuity of terror could
suggest. The Indian skated magnificent

turn, angle for angle, with the fish,
Skater and swimmer were always in a
vertical line. For a FULL hour the chase
kept up, the sturgeon now poticeably
wearying, the Indian fresh as at the
start.
Now the speed slackened but the In
dams gliding form was still always di-
rectly above the fish. The sturgeon s
struggles became spasmodic. Now he
stopped, motionless, but for the quick
beating gills; now he darted like lightning

A singular mishap has occurred to the
Gelygaer (South Wales) foxhounds. While
the pack was in full cry on the noun
tain at New Tredegar nine of the best
hounds suddenly vanished together with
the fox.
1t was found that they had fallen down
a. deep assure on the mountain top, caused
about a year ago by landslip. The
depth of the crevice has never been faith
onaed, but some idea of its extent may
be Judged from the fact that after the
disappearance of the dogs not sound
was heard from them.
The animals have not been recovered.
and it has been found impossible to de-
scend the opening even with a rope.

Poison a BLESSING.

That poison is a civilizing agent is the
startling statement of Hollis w. Field
in his interesting article. Poison Mans
Best Friend" in the February Technical
World Magazine. Says Mr.. Field:
strangely anomalous as it may APP
pear, the existence of active poisons in
the animal, vegetable, and mineral
Kingdoms of nature has done more for
the development of modern civilized
man than have all the other %innocuous
elemental things which aboriginal man
found to his hand. These active poisons
were mans first stimulus to first adap-
tatfQn of poison to the uses Of man. The
aborigine found himself at III the
hunter and the hunted of creation.
Whether as hunter u the hunted. he
was a pygmy compared with many of
the c~arnivorous beasts of his envlr-
onment He saw that whereas his own
considerable physical force n power
were as nothing to OH of these crea-
lures. the fang of the serpent was all
compelling. Where the poisonous ser
pen struck With poisoned fang n
killed its quarry, he saw it eat without
discomfort or injury. TO kill his W
food through the venom of the SER
pent must ave been one of mans
first elaborated mental processes. AS
this a%borigine applied the venom of the
serpent to his arrow and later blended
It with the poisons of the vegetable
