Disappearance Of the EIand.

Among the rapidly disappearing wild
animals is the Gland or Cape elk,
which Is a native of South Africa and
n Of the largest antelopes. and Is
especially priced AZ furnishing the
best of all venison. Schemes for
preservation include a plan for domes'
ticating 1t and making II perform an
important share of the farm work OF
Cape Colony. The beast Is easily cap
tured, thrives under the new condi'
tions, and in IN experiment in the
M'Chekwe district of MashOnaland
two Gland spans we're used for a con,
siderable time for drawing wagons,
proving docile and tractable. Healthy
calves were born in captivity. The
animal seems to be proof against the
common diseases of farm stock. and
its flesh is desirable for beef and Its
hide for leather.

These two excellent but humble
creatures had brought me, an orphan,
home from my birthplace. America,
consigned to Sir Peter and Lady
H~awkshaw. This oma Betty
Green, had been my mothers devoted
servant, as her husband had been my
fathers, and 1t was thought perfectly
safe to send me home with them. But
there was a danger which no one fore
saw. Betty was one of those strange
women who love like n lioness. This
lioness' love she felt for me; and for
that reason, l believe, she deliberately
planned to prevent my family from
ever getting hold Of me. 1t is true, on
landing in England. her husbands
regiment being ordered to Winchester,
she went to see Sir Peter Hawkshaw
and, l suspect, ~purposely made him so
angry that, Lady Hawkshaw being alb.
sent, he almost kicked Betty Green
out of the house. That is what I fancy
my lady meant when she reproached
Sir Peter with cruelty to me. I we'll re-
member the air of triumph with which
Betty returned and told the corporal
Of her Ill success; then, clasping me
in her arms, she burst out with a cry
| that no admiral nor ladies nor lords
| neither should take her darling boy
away from her. Green, her husband,
being a steady, cool.hcaded fellow,
waited until the raroxysm was over.

Summer visitors at the Semmering

The new summer toboggan has a

four low wheels. Equipped with u
strong and reliable brake, as well as
steering apparatus, it affords a pleas

and amusement, for it offers a swift

from the sale Of them I got enough to

Either Sir Peter had forgotten to tell

| had slipped out so quickiy-galled
by the fear of weeping before that

enough for young gentlemen holding
