ono would realize this latter fact
very lorclbly could he go behind tho
scenes In the advertising department
Of one Of the great American rail-
roads serving the Maine and Cana
dian hunting region and see the vast
quantities of booklets and other print
cd matter pertaining to this noble
branch Of sport that are sent to every
quarter of the Republic, at the re-
quest of interested parties.
Perhaps 1t is the feeling that some
day in the not far distant future,
there will be no more moose and deer
to be hunted In Maine or elsewhere
on this continent; but certain 1t Is
that the American public Is every year
manfesting a keener interest in the
quest of big game, and is willing to
invest generously of its time and
money in order to crafty It's desire
for set of antlers, or even a set OF
"snap shots" of antlered game.
Even a peaceful expedition like
that of DR.. Cook to the North Pole
has an unconscious effect upon the
mind of the born hunter. He yearns
to emulate the intrepid dlscoverer In
bagglng musk-oxen and polar bears,
but realizing that these are as far be-
yond his reach as the Pole itself, he
does the next best thing and goes
after moose and black bears In Maine
or New Brunswick And in his way,
he has just as much fun as DR.. Cook
or Commander Peary-and far more
comfort.
With the multiplicity of the camps
has come marked increase in the
number of professional guides, all of
them duly registered, according to
law; and in no hunting region in the
world can there be found a finer or
more reliable set Of woodsmen than

COOL MATTRESS COVER.

Perhaps one OF the greatest helps
toward summer comfort Is the mat
tress cover made OF Japanese mat
ting. The makers have been
thoughtful enough to weave 1t OF a
width and length to just exactly cover
the mattress. Too much must not be
expected Of It by way Of economy, for
the sheet will be found to wear out
sooner when placed over this ffrm
surface, with its somewhat harsh,
corded edge; but its extreme comfort
and GOODNESS is its recommendation.

tion into the wilds OF the Dark Con
tinent will have a far-reaching effect
upon the pastime of hunting in all
civilized countries.
Those who live in large cities-the
last place on earth that one would
naturally associate with anything per-
tanning to the wilderness-are now
adays among the very first to be re-
minded OF the approach of the hunt
ing season. for about this time of year
the sporting goods establishments, 80
numerous in all large centres, begin
to make their attractive window dis
plays of firearms, camping outfits and
hunting and tramping paraphernalia,
not forgetting the guide books and
outdoor works of fiction; for there is
a literature of hunting to-day, as Of
all things else.
In fact, the comforts of life in the
woods in these days form one of the
chief reasons for the wonderful popu-
larity of those exciting and healthful
hunting trips that we soon will be
reading about in every metropolitan
and local paper. There are few of
us who really take delight in rough
ing it," but for every one of these
modern Davy Crocketts, there are a
thousand who prefer the downy couch

for IL Is getting dark very rapidly"
Thereupon, Maggie lifted the
lower barbed-wires Of the fence
which surrounded the sheep pasture
and crept under them, entering the
pasture. Then she stood still and
listened. Again came the low plead
ing call Of the little lamb in distress.
The sound led Maggie to the pretty
little animal that was standing alone
In the snow which nearly covered It.
On the uplands the snow had not lain.

Maggie, putting her arms about the
pretty lamb 81 cannot leave you
here to perish. ! simply must carry
you home with me-" Then, lifting
with all her strength, Maggie got the
lamb in her arms and went to the
fence with It. Here she met the
greatest obstacle in the form Of the
barbed wire. But Maggie was de-
termined, and after much effort got
the lower wires sufficiently apart to
admit OF the lambs body, which she
thrust through to the opposite side.
Then Maggie crawled through the
fence and again took the lamb in her
arms; but she found her burden
heavy one, and as she went stumbling
along through the snow often WON
dered IL her strength would hold out
till she reached her home.
But there are times in our lives
when superhuman strength seems to
be given us in our hour of need, and
so IL was with Maggie in this emerg-
ency. Just when 1t seemed that her
arms must of sheer exhaustion let
the benumbed little lamb drop to the
and walked on bravely and surely to
her home. On reaching the door she
called out to her mother to open IL
for her. You can well imagine the
mothers surprise when she beheld
Mag yie carrying dear little half
frozen lamb. After Maggie had ex-
planned the situation the good mother
put her arms about her saying: "One
dear little lamb gave succor to an
other dear little lamb in distress.
And l have comfort and happiness
for both. Papa will take the dear
little rescued one to warm place in
the barn and see that 1t gets a good
supper, and tomorrow will notify its
owner of its whereabouts and also of
the manner in which It was saved.
And now / must look after my own
little lamb, whom I was on the point
of going to meet, for the night was
deepening and | was afraid she might
have strayed from safety"
And Maggie, very happy in having
saved the life of poor forgotten,
freezing little lamb, said I'm doub-
ly glad, mamma, that I did not miss
school to-day. Had / not gone that
poor animal would have frozen to
death in the pasture. So | shall al
ways go to school on bad days, not
only to learn and to keep up my at
tendance record, but to look in that
pasture for lambs that might be for
gotten and left there to perish. -

1t is asserted that some gazelles
never drink water and that the llamas
of Patagonia live for years without
taking water.
There is particular class of cattle
near Losere in France that rarely
touches water, but in spite of this
fact these cattle give milk of rich
quality from which excellent cheese
is made.
Many naturalists have the theory
that hares do not drink or that water
is not necessity for them and that
the dew on the grass is sufficient for
their needs.-Fur News.

1t is so easy, indeed, and yet so
"real," that it has become the ac-
cepted custom for the sportsman to
take along the feminine members OF
his family, after the unsclfish fashion
of the true American. Hundreds OF
women SO into the Maine woods now
adays, for big game hunting as well as
for fishing, and some of the finest
prizes fall to their aim. Nothing will

Even the children can be taken
along, if they are not OF too tender an
age, and the experience is one that
will be of inestimable value.
In the matter of selecting a likely
place for good moose or deer hunt
ing, there is almost as wide range
rs il one wanted to go in quest Of
elephants or lions in Africa. A very
large part of the State of Maine, with
its 100000 acres of forest land and
it's $500 lakes and streaT afford
"good hunting" of every kind to b"
found in this corner OF America.

LIGHTS AND SHADES.

The dead trees stood like picl,ets
Guarding the long white road,
And DER the terrace faces
Their sinister shadows strobe;
But ever among the thiekets
The woven moonshine played.
And lightened the road in places
Though more was in the shade.
The dead-tree shadows muster
Llfe's long white road beside,
And forth in stealthy patches
OF gaunt gray shapes they ride;
But high the joy.beams cluster
Above lifc's darkened glade,
And fall in cleaning patches
On barren leagues of shade.
