Chased Beef Is Tender.

From the New York Press.
DR. Foveau de Courmelles, president of
the Anti vivisection Society of Paris,
says: THE meat of oxen and calves
easily becomes dangerous and no longer
presents the necessary quality for con-
sumption IL the animal be tormented by
brutal drovers on the way to the slaught-
err house." Perhaps cats are crazy and
do not know what they are doing when
they catch a mouse, and then playfully
chase 1t about for hours before feasting
on the little dainty. This habit OF chas-
ing and teasing is a strong instinct of
all the cat tribe, and tends to tender the
toughest prey. Some of the old fashioned
folk call It cooking the mouse
Once Tip was stopping at Ollie James's

cry drummer knows how tough are coun-
try steaks, but here these beefsteaks
were such a surprising exception, so hne

trouble to find out just how 1t could be-

1t is an old hunting tradition that deer
chased by dogs makes better venison
than deer which is stalked. John Hunter,
the worlds premier vivisectionist, whose
stupendous work has been one OF the
great life-saving landmarks in the history
Of science, made many experiments along
this line and confirmed this old tradition
that chasing deer made the meat much
more tender and breakable under the
fingers, and further that the blood of
chased animals does not clot like other
blood. On the other hand, just to show
how strange is life, consumptives are
