What is that?' he said to himself.
II is little hard to say, but the mat

color of q deer! Just where a deer

so foolish as to wear those duns and

rife thinks nothing OF hair a mile.
There are many Intervening bushes
and saplings; but the steel jacketed
bullet would kill on the farther side
Of the thickest pine, and even a soft
,nosed one will cut clearly to this
mark. The colonel's practised left
hand immovably supported the barrel;
the coloners keen eye through the
carefully adjusted sights saw plainly
the blotch OF deerskin down the little
glade; and the coloners steady fore
finger confidently pressed the lightly
set trigger. Spati The colonel felt

deep groan seemed to warrant hope ;

The hunter stopped, took of his deer

Trudeau saw his man halt on the
edge OF the freight that evening, turn
his jacket, and come YEARLY into

night, while the other slept heavily.
Next morning there was a raging
storm, and the guide was puzzled that
the hunter refused to brave its dan

Ing made this spring for the first

territory in North Carolina, Virginia

opinion of fish experts, frogs should
thrive and become so plentiful in the
course of few years that they would
become articles OF common diet.

woman's Day in Austria.

The women OF the Social Democrat
ic party held lately "woman's day"
in Austria The Vienna town hall
was filled to overlooking with women
bearing banners. The speakers at the
meeting said that women must organ
lie themselves with the object OF get
ting the law, which forbids them to
hold political meetings or to form pc
litical organizations, repealed. During
the meeting, it was pointed out that
when the men had been called away
from their daily avocations, without
warning, to spend weeks and months
on the frontier, the women at home
had been obliged to work for the sup
port of their families, as the allow
ance made by the government to the
wives and families Of reseryists was
ridiculously inadequate.

Turkish Coffee.

The Turks, though possessing little
scientific knowledge. are nevertheless
a practical people. They have learned
from long experience that pulveriEed
coffee, pounded in a marble mortar
and passed through a sieve, is both
good and economical, as it gives the
full flavor of the bean and loses moth
ing of its strength.
The great event OF visit to Turk
ish home is the serving of coffee. The
host has a sort of brass shovel
brought to him. In It he roasts cof-
fee beans and then takes a pestle and
mortar and with his own hands
pounds it to a powder. Many of the
pestles and mortars used in Turkey
are heirlooms, passing from father to
son through the generations, and are
richly and beautifully ornamented.
Having drunk coffee in the house of a
Turk, you need have no fear of him.
even If he has the worst of reputa-
tons for being murderous. No Turk
would harm a man who has drunk
coffee under his roof.
