HOW MIND MAKES BODY SICK

Mind and body" is such com.
mon term that we are, very prone
to think that mind and body"
means two separate things. AS a
matter of fact, though, mind and
body are not two separate things
not even two separate things
closely connected. Mind and body
are one thing, one entity.
Thought is physical act--the
INTERVENING of tiny tenacles part
ly in the brain, partly In the nerv-

is matter of physical action-as

You can see the fingers, but you
can't see the thought process part
ly because it is under cover,
through which by means of the

arms are too small.
Mind and body being one, we
can easily understand why they

The Giraffe - Awkward and
Harmless.

II is peculiar that such savage
brutes as leopards and cheetahs are
marked much like the girafe. the
most awkward and harmless animal
in Africa. At one time the girafe
was common down as far az Cape
Town, but now II is found no farther
south than the Transyaal. Gradually
Il is being driven into the interior.
The giraffe makes its home tn the
desert country. being able to go for
long periods without drinking. There
are large herds on the Kalahari des-
ert, where they are practically safe
from the hunters rife. Giraffes are
also very common In the country to
which Mr.. Roosevelt is going. They
are easy hunting. Before the passage
of the game protection laws ! have
seen one party bring down 20 CRATES
In day.
1t is easy to form an idea Of the
giraffe's awkwardness when you take
into consideration that the animal is
from IS to 20 feet high. measuring
from the ground TO It's head, and II Is
mostly legs and neck. the legs being
longer than the neck When a giraffe
drinks IL must spread its legs out an
an angle Of about 80 degrees TO lower
its body sufficiently to reach the wa
ter.
The favorite method OF the Beers In
hunting the giraffe is to ride II down
on horseback. This affords great sport
and a good horse will overtake one Of
these animals after a long chase. The
giraffe presents a peculiar spectacle
when 1t is running. The body seems
TO gain on the head. which waves TO
and fro and is jerked into position at
every second step. Mr.. Roosevelt will
have to depend solely on shooting for
his giraffe cport, as the country he
will visit In is not favorable to horse
hunting.
A source Of amusement to the aver
age European sportsman who visits
East Africa Is hunting the wart hog.
Although the Africander does not care
about hunting this animal. the Euro
pean seems to delight in 1t, perhaps
on account of the animals ferocious
and ugly appearance. 1t is armed with
a pair of formidable tusks which II
can use with great effect on either
horse or, man when 1t is cornered.
have seen a native gored so badly by
one that he died in an hour.
Each African colony has game laws
based on the prevalence or scarcity OF
certain species Of animals. Where
Mr.. Roosevelt is going to hunt 1t costs
$3.50 for a huntsmans license. This
license under the British East Afri-
can game laws gives the following
privileges:
Each white man-rife hunter-that
hunts in East Africa, is allowed to kill
