 You're a funny one. Come three thousand miles to hunt and then pass up the first deer you see. You could almost have been your grandfather. to have done that. He thought killing deer needlessly was almost as bad as killing a man. They are beautiful things, aren't theyT
 Dan answered him with startling emphasis. But the look that he wore said more than his words.
 They trudged on, and Lennox grew thoughtful. He was recalling the pie ture that he had seen when he had whirled to look at Dan, Immediately after the deer had leaped from its bed. It puzzled him a little. He had turned to find the younger man in a perfect posture to shoot, his feet placed in exactly the position that nox was correct; and withal, absolute ly motionless- What many hunters take years to learn, Dan had seemed to know by instinct. Could it be, after all, that this slender weakling, even now bowed down with a terrible malady, had inherited the true from tiersman's instincts of his ancestors7
 The result of this thought was at least to hover in the near vicinity of a certain conclusion. That conclusion was that at least few of the char acteristics of his grandfather had been passed down to Dan. It meant that possibly, if time remained, he would not turn out such weakling, after all. Of course his courage his nerve, had yet to be tested; but the fact remained that long generations of ,frontiersmen ancestors had left this

Thirteen-Year-OId Had Remembered What He Had Been Taught
 About Electricity.

The family washing was going through its regular Monday electric washer route. Incidentally the base ment was damp, because there had been no furnace fire.
 When the lady of the house started to wiring the clothes she found an electric current in the water, due to a short circuit in the motor. After several attempts to wiring the clothes before the current got in its work, she was about ready to give up and wiring them by hand.
 ''Shucks, mom,'' said thirteen-year- old Harry, who knows all about Edi- son and Franklin, "rll bet if you put on your rubbers, so the current can't go on out of your body you won't get a shock at all."
 And when ''mom" tried the Sugges- tion she found the embryo electrician knew what he was talking about, for she worked in safety while wringinE the rest of the clothes.

SYNOPSIS.

Warned by his physician that he
 has not more than six months to live, Dan Failing sits despondently on a park bench, wondering where he should spend those six months. Memories of his grandfather and a deep love for all things of the wild help him in reaching a deci- sion- In a large southern Oregon city he meets people who had known and loved his grandfather. a famous frontiersman. He makes his home with Silas Lennox, a typ ica1 westerner. The only other members of the household are Lennox's son, 'sBil1." and daugh- ter, ''Snowbird." Their abode is in the Umpqua divide, and there Failing plans to live out the short span of life which he has been told is his. From the first Failing's health shows a marked improve ment, and in the companionship of Lennox and his son and daughter he fits into the woods life as if he had been born to it. By quick thinking and a remarkable display of nerve" he saves Lennox's life and his own when they are at tackled by a mad coyote Lennox declares he is a reincarnation of his grandfather. Dan Failing I, whose fame as . woodsman is a household word.

just opened, and it might be that Dan would want to procure one of these creatures.
 ''But I'm not sure want to hunt deer" Dan told him. You speak of them as being so beautiful"
 "They are beautiful and your grandfather would never hunt them, either, except for meat But maybe you'll change your mind when you see a buck. Besides, we might run into a lynx or a panther. But not very like ly. without dogs.'
 They trudged up, over the carpet of pine needles. They fought their way through a thicket of buckbrush. Once they saw the gray squirrels in the tree tops. And before Lennox had as much as supposed they were near the haunts of big game, a yearling doe sprang up from its bed in the thickets.
 For an instant she stood motionless, presenting a perfect target. It was evident that she had heard the sound of the approaching hunters, but had not as yet located or identified them with her near-sighted eyes. Lennox whirled to find Dan standing very still, peering along the barrel of his rifle. But he didn't shoot. The deer, seeing Lennox move, leaped into her terror-pace-that astounding run that is one of the fastest gaits in the whole animal world. In the wink of an eye she was out of sight
 ''Why didn't you shoot?" Lennox de manded.
 "Shootf It was a doe, wasn't it?'
 Good Lord, of course it was a doe! But there are no game laws that go back this far. Besides-you aimed at 1t"
 "I aimed just to see if could catch 1t through my sights. And I could. My glasses sort of made 1t blur-but

Mrs. Dingman Tells of Adventure of Childhood When Fathers
 Ship Was Wrecked.
RELATES LATER EXPERIENCE
Declares That the Way Tanlac Re- stored Her Health Is More Re- mart<able Than Anything She Has Ever Had Happen
 to Her.

 my troubles and made me gain twen-
 ty pounds was the statement of Mrs.
 Christina k. Dingman, 1216 Alice St,
 Oakland, Calf. One of the experiences
 to which Mrs. Dingman refers is well
 known to her friends. When child of three years, accompanying her fa- ther, a noted sea captain, on an ocean trip, the vessel was wrecked, but she was almost miraculously saved, the small box into which she was put be- ing washed ashore. According to her statement, Mrs. Dingman enjoyed the best of health until three years ago when she began to suffer from bad form of stomach trouble and later from rheumatism. How she was com pIetely restored to health is best told il her own words:
 Nobody knows how I suffered for the past three years No matter how carefully I ate I would endure ago nies afterwards from smothering and sinking spells. Sometimes they were so severe I would fall to the floor and would have to be carried to bed l went for days at a time without eat ing, as I dreaded the misery I knew would follow, no matter what l ate. Then rheumatism set in and my shoul- ders and arms hurt me so I couldn't comb my hair. My back felt like it was breaking in two.
 "I was almost in the depths of de spair when began on Tanlac, but this grand medicine has made me well and happy woman. I'm not even trou- l bled with constipation now, thanks to | the Laxative Tablets, which are far | superior to anything of the kind I ever | tried. It seems almost too good to | be true, but here I am in the best of | health and spirits after I had given | up hope, and I'll always praise Tanlac for it."
