MOOSE sHoD WITH SILENCE
Animal Weighing More Than Half .
Ton Can Stalk Through Thick
Forest Without Making Sound.

A bull moose can traverse a thick
forest without making a sound. AL
though taller than a horse, weighing
more than half a ton and adorned
with wide spreading antlers, the bull
moose stalks with ghostly silence
through thickset forests, where man
can scarcely move without being be-
trayed' by the loud cracking Of dry
twigs. In summer it loves low lying.
swampy forests interpreted with
shallow lakes and sluggish streams.
In such places it often wades up to
its neck in a lake to feed on succu-
lent water plants and when reaching
to the bottom becomes. entirely sub
merged. These visits to the water
are sometimes by day, but usually at
night, especially during the season
when the calves are young and the
horns of the bulls are but partly
grown.
Late in the fall, with full-grown
antlers, the bulls wander through
the forest looking for their mates, at
times uttering far-reaching calls of
defiance to all rivals and occasionally
clashing their horns against the sap
lings in exuberance of masterful'
vigor. Other bulls at times accept
the challenge and hasten to meet the
rival for battle royal. AT this sea-
son the call of the COW moose quickly
attracts the bulls. Hunters take adj
vantage of this and by initiating the
call through a birch bark trumpet
bring the most aggressive bulls to
their doom.

CELTIC JAPANESE ODD RACE
Decorations Tatooed on Faces Of Wom-
en- Are Supposed to Enhance
Their Matrimonial Prospects.

The Anus, the Celtic race of
Japan, live in the Island of Yeddo,
although the race has become so re-
duced that there are now not more
than 10000 or 1900 of them left
in the country, according to the In
dianapolis News.
The most noticeable popularity
about Ainu women is that they have
tattooed upon their upper and lower
lips what resembles a mustache. The
women are not considered attractive,
and their matrimonial prospects are
quite injured without this decora-
ton. The mustache is begun when
the girl is quite child. 1t is done
gradually, little each year, until
it extends partly across. the cheek,
the material used being the SCOT
from burning birch bark. The face
is cut and the black rubbed IN. Aft
erward it is washed in solution Of
ash bark liquor to fix the color.
The Ainu women are usually fine
y formed, straight and weE devel-
oped, with small hands and feet,
their eyes are beautiful soft brown,
their hair black and most luxurious,
and their complexion olive with
often a deep, rich color on their
cheeks. The native cloth of which
their garments are made is woven
from the fiber of the bark of the elm
tree.

IVAN AS SEEN IN TRENCHES


The Paris Figaro contains many let.
tiers from Russian soldiers who, before
the war began. were residents In Paris.
One, an artist. thus describes a scene
one evening before orders were car
ried out by the regiment to make a
move In the rear. At a certain place
on the Russian front the gassIng from
the enemy became uncomfortable, large
~ because Of the weak location OF the
Russian trench. To remain where the
regiment was was to court certain spf-
location. To retire meant volleys of
shells. II was resolved to retire. A
few minutes were given for Tvan--the
Russian boys--to prepare.

Under Perpetual Cloud.

There are people who, through con-
stitutIon mental or physical, have let
themselves fall into the worrying habit,
so that life is under perpetual cloud.
They are always expecting the worst
things to happen; they indulge In posi-
tive orgies Of evil anticipation. One
might even say they luxuriate in 1t, to
the detriment of their own activities,
the destruction Of their peace, the an
noyance of their friends. So far as
they cannot help this. they are to be
pitied; but very often they can help
1t, or at least could have helped it
before they allowed the habit to take
possession Of them.-Exchange.
