MAN EATING TIGER.
India Native Always Knows Where He

tigers. Looking down from the hillside l
could always tell when a tiger was on
foot. where he was walking and when
he Law down to rest, for all these move
ments were reported by screaming birds
and chattering apes from the treetops.
By the like telegraphy aud by the
WoodCraft which is born IN them, by the
interests and habits of countless genera
tons, the villagers are perfectly well
postpd regarding the great beasts, and
particularly regarding the tigers, in their
neghborhood. The man eater is well
known over the whole of his sometimes
very extensive beat.
4 sportsman arriving-providcd the
villagers have confidence in him, and this
is a large provision, for they must know
their man-will have no difficulty what
ever in being accurately informed CON
corning the man eaters movements. but
whether he will persuade the villagers TO
help him to get up to his quarry Will de-
pend entirely upon his personal reputa-
ton.
1t is easy enough TO build little leafy
screen i'll a tree over Il pool ana to SIT
and dozc there night after night till the
tiger comes to drink in the moonlight and
cannot be missed, but it is quite another
thing to beat out and face the man eater
on foot. Consequently the sportsman

of this fact accounts for poor bread
