The Art of Reading

Never come to any author preju- diced" says Anne Bryan Mccall in Wo- mans Home Companion for November We do many a book the intusice of conforming 1t from hearsay. Such and such a person tells you they have found this or that writer dull. Yet to you he may be just the friend you need, just tho one who can most minister to you.
 tDo not follow blindly the teaching of any book. The chief end of all good books is to teach you to think for your self

Market for Artificial Legs

If American manufacturers will give the unfortunate cripples of Mexico an opportunity to buy artificial legs by the foot, or on the installment plan, there is a great field in the Mexican republic for the artificial limb industry. Consul Viii liam w. Canada. of Vera Cruz, Mexico, in a report to the government, says: , "The use of artificial limbs, at least in this consular jurisdiction, has always been restricted to the few fortunate ones able to pay for the costly substitute. for in nearly every instance it is the unskiled operative who proves to be the victim, one whose daily or weekly stipend is not large enough to warrant the purchase. Steam and electric roads, since their introduction in this country, are in great measure responsible for the many crippled persons seen here; yet even among people who could afford the cost of an artificial limb, there are pro- portionately very few who make use of one.
 "A well planned and energetic persist ent campaign for the general introduce rtiora Into this country of artificial limbs, and at figure or on terms of payment

 The strong odor of lion suddenly as sailed my nostrils. l jumped from my pony and snatched the rife from my | gunbearer. few feet ahead was n clump of bushes. Leaving the pony with the gunbearer, I advanced cautious l ly. Around the edge of the thin foliage l saw large lioness beating the ground softly with her tail and crouching for spring..
 l knew that sine could reach me in two jumps and that there was no time
 to lose Forgetting in my haste that there was good cartridge in my rife [ lifted the bolt and pulled it back. A good cartridge flew out, leaving me with | only two charges Aiming carefully, fired and hit the lioness in the shoulder She fell to one side, but, recovering her self, made limping bound toward the shelter of another bush. As far as she was concerned, I was safe but the echo of my shot had not died away before | her mate, a fine lion with long mane suddenly came out from a piece of scrub l about hundred yards away and gazed at' ne ! fred my last cartridge at him and missed.
 The lion did not move. We stared n' eaah other for moment. Out of the corner of my eye I happened to esAtcn d glimpse or a taWny head In an-
 other bush I glanced about now and was astonished to see that lions were | looking out from numerous clumps of scrub.
 i Being defenseless against their power ful teeth and jaws, I realized that the best thing to do was to remain as quiet as possible. So I sat down on the grass and counted the animals Including cubs. there were just 20 of them. I never wanted a few cartridges so much in my l life, but since I had none I returned to where my gunbearer was holding my pony, and, circling around the scrub, went back to camp. All night I could hear the lions lifting up. their voices in deep grunts and dismal groans.

 ''ifhe principal factor to be borne in mind, however, is always the cost to the purchaser.
