HAVE KEEN EYE FOR DANGER
Hunter Asserts That It Is Practically
Impossible to Surprise the
Mountain Shsep.

"The mountain sheep is one of the
most difficult of all our American
game to approach in the open," says
Charles l.. Smith in an article on the
Rocky Mountain Sheep" in Boys
Life. ut has eyes like telescope for
keenness and can discover and make
out man farther away than any other
animal of which I have any knowl-
edge, and where any considerable herd
have been feeding one will see usually
one or more standing on some prom
inent point where they can get view
OF the surrounding country. 1 know
OF no more inspiring sight than one of
those old rams with his massive horns
outlined against the sky, standing as
motlonleSS as a statue. And it is a
wonder to the hunter how they get
across the rock slopes with such ease
and grace. There has been much writ
ten Of the mountain sheep, of its Won
derful feats of springing from lodges
and lighting upon its head and horns,
which is without foundation in fact
While it is true they can stand an i'm
mense shock in battle, yet if one of
those sheep weighing 300 pounds
should drop from ledge of any con-
siderable height and land on his head
his neck would be broken. I spent
several years in the sheep country in
the Canadian Rockies and was near
the sheep or among them during all
seasons of the year and they seem to
be less sensitive to the rigors of win
ter and the ever-changing elements of
the high attitudes than any other ami
NAL except possibly the mountain goat,
and of these animals think they have
the advantage, because have num-
Der of times found mountain goats
yarded in the deep snow in places
where food was scarce, but have
never yet found mountain sheep in
this condition"

apartments, and as many hotels have

the baby's hotel, where he or she may
be received as paying guest, is max

course, accommodation for the baby
carriage.
Two certified nurses conceived the
idea. They have established a nursery
in Hampstead, London. The walls are
decorated with ducks and chickens,
and each little guest has white cot
with curtains. A medical man and Il
dentist are in attendance. The tariff
is about $13 a week. The little guests
may stay week, year, or merely for
the week end, while their parents go
house hunting or holiday making.

other woman left her little one in our
