MAN EATING TIGER.
India Native Always Knows Where He
May Be Found.

may DC GoAAu'
I have lived for weeks alongside quite
small, we'll defined forests containing
tigers. Looking down from the hillside
could always tell when tiger was on
foot. where he was walking and when
he lay down to rest, for all these move
ments were reported by screaming birds
and chattering apes from the treetOpS.
BY the like telegraphy and by the
Woodcraft which is born i'll them, by the
interests and habits of countless genera
tons, the villagers are perfectly well
posted regarding the great beasts, and
particularly regarding the tigers, IN their
neighbOrhOod. The man eater is we'll
known over the whole Of his sometimes
very extensive beat.
A sportsman arrivlng-prOvided 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 a little leafy
screen in tree over pool and to sit
and doze there night after night till the
tiger comes to drink in the moonlight and
cannot be missed, but 1t is quite another
thing to beat out and face the man eater
on foot. Consequently the sportsman
does not always get taken up to the man
eater, but this is not because the vii
layers do not know where he is or rather
she, for it is the female who generally
preyS on man.
The indiscriminate offer Of rewards in
no way tends to the destruction of the
real man eater. while it insures the
wholesale determination of the useful,
indeed Indispensable deer and pig stalk
er and the cattle lifter.-J. ID. Rees in
the Calcutta Statesman.

my little son, when about year
and a half old began to have sores
come out on his face. They began to
come ON his arms, then on other parts
of his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. At the
end of about year and half of suf-
fering he grew so bad had to tie his
hands il cloths at night to keep him
from scratching the sores and tearing
the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton
and was hardly able to walk. l sent
to the drug store and got a cake of
Cuticura Soap and box of Cuticura
Ointment, and at the end of about two
months the sores were all well. He
has never had any sores of any kind
since, and only for the Cuticura Rene
dies my precious child would have died
from these terrible sores. / used only
