used coffee exclusively at meals I
never knew there was anything to
drink but coffee and water.

Marshalltown, Ia.-Mrs. Minnie
Stewart of Dodge City, Kan, has
found her mother, Mrs. Emily Hell
mick, at the county poor farm after
a search of twenty-five years.
Mrs. Helmick was picked up by
county officers, twenty-five years ago
at Cambria in a wretched condition.
Her husband had deserted her, and
she was half starved and partly de.
mented. II was supposed at the
time that she had escaped from the
Clarinda Hospital.
She was taken to the county farm,
where she has always been known as
Aunt Annie. When the daughter saw
her mother she recognized her at
once, and the mother in turn remem-
bered her daughter ard called her
name readily. Mrs. Stewart took her
mother home with her.

REACHED HIS RIFLE
IN NICK OF TIME
Hunter, Attacked by Giant Bear
Is Pounded and Clawed as He
Makes Way to Gun
He FIGHTS THE 46O-POUND ANIMAL
Was Dressing Carcass OF Moose
When Suddenly He Received a Stun
ming BIow-Grapples with Bruin
and Wins Victory by a Second.

The Forks, Me.-The fourth man to
be tackled by a bear in the woods
near here recently was Wallace Dur
gin, who had his adventure the other
day, near his fathers house. Durgin
had his rifle close at hand and he
made short work of despatching the
brute, but this was not the luck of
Ernest Gubtil of New Vineyard. Cub
til had been hunting for moose for
two weeks. He dropped a fine buck,
and then placed his rife against a
tree and began the work of dressing
the carcass.
The hunter, knife in hand. was at
work when suddenly he received a
blow on the left side which sent him
to the ground half stunned. Gubtil
then found himself graphing with
black bear, which, when cold that
evening, weighed 400 pounds.
By means of rollings and tumbling,
kicking at the bear and warding off
attempts to grapple, Gubtil finally,
with the blood streaming from two
dozen bad scratches, reached his rifle.
By exerting all his remaining strength
Bubtil dropped the muzzle against the
bears breast as the brute rose, and,
with the trigger close against his left
hip, pulled. The expansion bullet
killed the bear almost instantly. At
the moment of the discharge the bear
was making a blow for Gubtil's face,
but the claws dragged against his
shoulder.
Gubtil was found weak from the
loss of blood and unable to proceed
to camp, but Horace Adams, the hunt
er and trapper. heard his call nearly
100 yards away. Gubtil was taken to
the farm and a Dr. Bullard of New
York attended him.
Horace Adams has killed fourteen
bear this fall, others have killed in
all eleven. The local hunters never
knew bears to be so terocious before
and the reason for it is ascribed to
the lack of wild berries.

Both ingenuity and economy are

from Calcutta, India. A firm in that
city imports drugs in wooden boxes
from the United States and England
1t then works up good material from
the packing cases into penholders.
Both the city and provincial govern.
ments buy these products, but the
penholders are said to be rather
crude. Labor is 81 very cheap in In
dia that it would be hard to compete
with any manufactured article there,

have chance of selling in that far
