KEEN EFE Saves
LIFE OF TRAPPER
WooDMAN SEES DEAD ANIMALS
IN TRAPS AND KNOWS SOME
THING IS WRONG.
FINDS MAN ILL AND STARVING
Peter Loveloy Comes on Little Cabin
in Ravine, After TWO Days Search,
Where Feilowman Is Bedrid-
den With rheumatism.

Woonga, Ont.-That the simple life
is not always simple or filled with un-
alloyed joy was brought to the atten-
ton Of Woonga villagers when they
were called upon to go to Big Cat lake
and bring Eugene Hardy, trapper,
who for nearly three weeks had been
slowly starving because bedridden
with an attack of rheumatism. That
the man is alive to-day is considered
remarkable
Hardy who in spite of his name,
is anything but robust, was found
by a fellow trapper through the
merest chance, and was then in such
a wasted condition that 1t was impos-
sible to take him out Of the woods
for six days. By administering coarse
broths made from yenison and part
ridge bones, he finally strengthened
his charge enough to move him over
20 miles Of trails on litter. From
that point the trip to civilization was
made by OK and horse teams.
Peter Lovejoy, the woodsman who
fortunately came upon Hardy, was
prospecting for a new camp when he
discovered traps with dead animals
in them. His experienced eye told
him that the animals had been dead
from one to two weeks and they had
probably been caught some days be-
fore death occurred. The latter fact
was pretty conclusiyely established
by the wasted condition OF the bodies.
Lovejoy Immediately deducted that
the owner Of the traps had met with
mishap and he set out to find him.
At-the end of two days search he
heard couple Of wolves bowling I'M a
sheltered ravine and little later he
came upon small cabin built against
a ledge Of rock. There was no indica

which had been securely caught with
a drop latch, Hardy was seen lying on

Itself was in disorder. Most of the
rough furniture had been used for

Philadelphia AN act Of penance
for using evil words, was the expla,
nation offered by ANGELA Baldesarre,
who cut out large portion Of her
tongue and gashed her throat. The
evil words were due to displeasure at
her brother Michaers prospective
wedding. So she confessed to sur
geons and nurses in St. Agnes hos

save her life
ANGELA inflicted the mutilations
upon her tongue and throat at the

and pretty Camilla Franca, who three
months ago came from Italy. where
the pair had been sweethearts for
years.

parallel lines run the stories Of Marie

dressed as a beggar during the day
