MAYS of Hunting.

Devastating among the Dogrib In
dams is managed by skillful counter
felt of the animal. Two hunters walk
together-the man behind with bent
body, the one In front carrying
stays head. The legs of the men
serve very well for the fore and hind
legs of the animal. In this way the
hunters get almost in the midst of
herd of deer before the creatures are
aware of danger.
The ostrich is hunted in a similar
way by the bushmen of South Africa,
and the Eskimos sometimes come to
close quarters with seals by dressing
themselves in sealskins and dexterous-
ly mimicking the style of swimming
and "flopping" so characteristic of the
animal
In Australia the natives bring the
wallaby or young kangaroo within the
range of the spear by suspending a
small birds skin and feathers from
the end of long rod and initiating
the birds cry.-London Strand.

apus was believed to have become ex-
tinct In Great Britain fifty years ago,

some numbers in two ponds on Pres

inches long, the apus bears very
striking likeness to that remarkable
creature, the king crab, and this be-
cause the fore part of the body is COW

carapace, while, as in the king crab,
It swims on its back. In the great

Mr.. Wipedunks-Only 81 year!
That's all, is it? If you begin on maya

thrown away. Do you think I'm made
