FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY.
Where the Winters are Cold and the

Writing from the vicinity David

that he was an habitua1 coffee drink

doing him harm, fTea Is equally
harmful, because 1t contains caffeine

all at once he went to pieces with
nervousness and Insomnia, loss of
appetite, weakness, and a generally
used-up-feeiing, which practically
untitled him for his arduous occu-
patton, and kept him on a couch at
home when his duty did not call him
out.
while in this condition Grape-Nuts
food was suggested to me and /
began to use 1t. Although 1t was In
the middle OF winter and the Their
mometer was often below zero,
almost my entire living for about
six weeks of severe exposure was on
Grape-Nuts food with a little bread
and butter and a cup OF hot water,

after the first two weeks I began
to feel better and during the whole
winter I neyer lost a trip on my
mail route, frequently being on the
road 7 OF s hours at q time.
1.-THE constant marvel to me
was how a person could the
amount of work and endure
the 4atigue and hardship as
| did, on SO small an amount OF
food. But | found my new rations
SO perfectly satisfactory thatI have
continued them-using both Postum

THE ELEPHANTS TRUNK.
Il May Justly Be Called One OF the
Miracles OF Nature.

The trunk OF the elephant may justly
be considered as one-sf the miracles or
nature. being at once the organ OF res
piration. as well as the instrument by
which the animal supplies itself with
food. Nearly eight feet 10 length. en-
dowed with exquisite sensibility aud
stout in proportion TO the massive size
Of the animal. this organ will uproot
trees or gather grass-raise n piece OF
artillery or take up nut, kill man
or brush OF n fly.
1t conveys the food 10 the mouth and
pumps up enormous draughts Of water
which. by IT'S recuryature. are tuTued
into and driven down the capaciouS
throat or showered over the body. Its
length supplies the place Of long
neck which would have been incom-
patible with the support OF the large
head and weighty tusks. A glance az
the head OF an elephant will show the
thickness and strength OF the trunk at
its insertion: end the massy arched
bones Of the face and thick. muscular
neck are admirably adapted for SUP
porting and working this powerful and
wonderful instrument

PLUCK OF A DEER.
A Big Buck That Was More Than
Match For a COUGAR

II seems To be generally assumed
that wild animals of different species
keep the peace. but now and then the
experience OF some woodsman striking
" disproves this peaceful view OF for
est life.
Two sportsmen made trip to the
Kettle river region, in the state OF
Washington. and in the course OF the
shooting witnessed rare occurrence.
They had been on the trail OF large
buck for some time and, as It Glanced,
came in sight Of him at the very mo-
ment when cougar launched himself
upon the buck from the limb OF = tree.
The cougar landed squarely on the
bucks shoulders, almost throwing him
10 the ground.
The buck quickly recovered and
throwing back his head, drove two
prongs Of his antlers into the cougars
body and with n swing forward threw
him to the ground. Leaping backward,
he then waited with lowered head for
n second attack.
With yell OF rage and pain the cou.
gar sprang upon him. He might as
well have leaped against an array OF
bayonets, for he was caught on the
bucks antlers and hurled several feet
into the air.
The instant he struck the ground the
buck was upon him, striking savagely
with his forefeet, which cut like knife
blades. and driving his antlers again
and again into his body.
Finally they separated, and the cou-
gar crawled forward for the final
struggle. The deer was wounded, but
still in excellent fighting trim. The
hunters interfered. One Of them walked
up 10 the cougar and shot it through
the eheart.-Exchange
