Animal. Attack the lungs.

Watch any flesh eating animal when
it Is attacking Its prey or watch two
animals having a fight to the death
You will notice n remarkable fact,
and that Is that they strike for the
lungs. Most people. Of course, are
well aware where their own lungs are.
but they haven't the slightest idea
about any other lungs. Animals To-
st~inctively know, however, the position
of the lungs of almost every other ami
NAL. When a tiger or a lion attacks Q
man 1t does its best to get just below
the shoulder blades. II IL strikes with
out warning you will always find that
It's powerful paws have torn right
through to the lungs. A cat has just the
same instinct. Watch It stalk q spar.
row and you will see how cieyerly i
maneuvers so as to get behind the un-
fortunate bird aud pounce on its bach.

Tn. Indoor and the Outdoor Man.

n tnooor n Sho Outuoof m&us
In the American Magazine Dean Her
mar Schneider says:
"The characteristics of men are so
much On the surface that q keen ana
lyst usually will uncover the correct
one In the first interview. They signal
the indoor and outdoor type Of man.
When a blizzard is beating against the
house an indoor man likes to hear the
roar Of the wind because 1t empha-
sizes the coziness Of the ~inglenook
and heightens his sense of protection.
The outdoor man is straightway seized
by a desire to get out and fight the
storm. Draw a picture of prospecting
or construction work. and the second
man will lean forward with tense mus
cles and radiant eyes. The other will
draw more and o into himself, as

OUR UNPAID LABoRERs.
6irds Do Great Work, Yet We Do Not
Properly Protect Them.


One form Of national waste which is
far more serious than the American
people realize is a result of the deplor-
able neglect to conserve bird life in
this needless and ungrateful country.
Ornithologists and other intelligent
observers Of nature who have made a
study of the subject say with the n
ton Of crop experts that insects de-
stroy one-tenth of the products Of agri-
culture In the United States. More
than 100000 kinds of insects have been
enumerated In the fields, orchards.
meadows, pastures, vineyards, gardens
and woods of this chief agricultural
country of the world. A very large pro-
portion of these insects are injurious
to crops. Birds are the insects worst
enemies.
Nearly all birds destroy insect life.
The federal department Of agriculture
has examined the stomachs Of forty
kinds of birds to determine accurately
what they consume. 1t was found that
among the birds which most effectively
aid the farmers are phoebes. kingbirds,
catbirds. swallows, brown thrashers,
rose breasted ~grosbeaks, house wrens,
viroes, native sparrows, cuckoos. orr
oles, warblers, shore larks, lo~ggerhead
shrikes and meadow larks. Even the
crow and the row blackbird, which
have rested under suspicion 80 long
do more good than harm to the farm
ers.-Chicago News.

JACK RABBITS FOR FOOD
Department Of Agriculture Plans Great
Drives to Lower Cost Of Meat

Department Of Agriculture Plans Sreas
Drives to Lower Cost of Meat
Washington. Sept. 3O.-The jack
rabbits to the rescue!
Ways and means for distributing
the carcasses of the millions of jack
rabbits that infest the fertile fields
of the far west and consume much
of the fine crops of the farmers, are
to be taken up soon by the depart
ment of agriculture with a view OF
increasing the supply and lowering
the cost of meats.
The season for the community
drives on these pests in the west is
drawing near, and it is hoped by the
department to interest the masses in
the food value of these animals and
the commercial opportunities that
await the pioneer exploiters and ship
pers of this ~wheiesome food.
Besides being a delicious and pala-
table game food in its natural and
fresh state. it is claimed the hams of
the rabbit corned and smoked are
equally good, if not better. The
average weight of the dressed rab-
bit is three pounds. They abound
by the millions over thousands of
acres in the far western States.
