Cures "cat-Killing" Dog

Dogs can be cured of chasing cats,
for the cat-chasing dog usually be-
comes the cat-killing dog. if he catches
the cat, says Our Four-Footed Friends.
A man owned dog that was addicted
to slaughtering every cat it could grab.
He had whipped 1t and scolded It, but
to no purpose. A friend offered to
cure it; and did. The cure was very
simple. A dead cat was tied around
the dogs neck, firmly strapped on. He
was made to wear 1t twenty-four
hours. When 1t was removed he was
taken for walk. A cat ran across
the street Instead of darting in pur-
suit, as formerly, he tucked in his tail
and fed for home. He never killed
another cat.

Creatures of Wild
Seldom Travel Far

The wild animals Of the country
do not roam around aimlessly, but
each creature has definite spot re-
garded as home, and makes tempo
rary homes, or stopping places, in ir-
regular lines away from the home CEN
ter. Its range is not great unless
hard.pressed' for food. As rule they
keep the lines Of their own choosing
except that when pursued they gen.
orally circle about their home. The
English hares appear to live month
after month within mile or two of
the home center. During winter
scarcity, however, they wander far
Their and faster, and have been known
to continue 30 miles in single night.
A hare kept under observation for a
considerable time showed a winter
range Of 16 miles along a stream, and
a summer range less than half as
great. Rabbits are even less inclined
to roam, 80 per cent spending their
lives within two or three miles Of
their burrow. The fox probably has
normal range of 20 miles-1O miles
each way from the center-but noun
tain foxes have been known to hunt
pheasants IL miles from the cairns
containing their cubs and to carry
their kill that distance home.

Rolfe sat on an upturned keg just
within the cave, when he was in.
tensely startled One of the band
came into view, forcing before him
a prisoner.
II, found him spying on u.s." the
'smuggler explained. "In his pocket I
found note showing that he has put
the revenue officers ON to our den
here" aa.
Settle him." hoarsely commanded
the leader Of the crowd. 'Here, you"
to the captor and to Rolfe-"take
him over beyond the rocks yonder and
settle him.
Her brotherw breathed Rolfe. as
he recognized Harold Graves.
Harold was the worse for severe
struggle and did not notice Rolfe, who
with his captor started to obey the or
ders of the smuggler chief.
"This will do" said Rolfe's snug
gler companion, as they got out Of
sight Of the cave. "Join in, mate, and
help finish him." and he drew his
revolver.
run for your life!" whispered
Rolfe quickly in the ear of the startled
Harold Graves.
In that flashing second the latter
recognized Rolfe. He uttered a cry
Of profound amazement, but was quick
to avail himself of the offered op-
portunity for escape.
He saw Rolfe strike the leveled
weapon from the hand of the snug
gler He saw the latter grapple with
Rolfe. There were loud cries for
help, and Rolfe, denounced as
traitor to the band, was borne by
some Of its members back to the cave.
1t was an excited. pitiful story that
Harold told to his sister when he
reached home. Even to his crude
mind the indication was irresistible
that Rolfe could not be one of the
smugglers in reality, and oppose their
counsels at the forfeit of his life.
HE saved me, that's all know, and
I'm sorry for him." said the shbdued
Harold.
"And your work has brought him
to his doom!" sobbed his sister, bit
terly.
Then came news that the revenue
officers whom Harold had led to the
den of the smugglers, but had got
separated from, had made an on
slaught in time to save Rolfe from
the vengeance Of the band. All had
been captured.
With a great cry, the next morning
Minna sprang from the porch to greet
brisk, smiling visitor, Rolfe Ditson.
Soon he explained to her the complete
situation.
II was employed as a government
agent to get at the inside affairs of
the smugglers," Rolfe told Minna.

to say good-by. for / must return to

''But-you will come back, some
timer" faltered Minna.
us that your wish?' asked Rolfe,
quickly.
Her two trembling hands, rested in
his own, made answer, and when
Rolfe Ditson left her, Minna Graves
was his promised wife.

Like Father

Junior had been permitted to accom-
pany his father to the office for the
first time. AS he left the maternal
doorstep his mother said, "Now, Ju-
nior, you watch daddy, and try to do
things the way he does; then when
you grow up you will be big smart
man like him." :
That night Junior strobe up to his
little bed with new determination.
AS he kneeled down at his mothers
feet for the evening prayer, he piped
up: "Take dictation. Dear Lord, God
bless mamma, God bless papa, God
bless the cook, and, darn it, God, If
we don't get action on this. I'll sue
YOU"

them a warm dinner at night. For the
outdoor worker and the Office woman
the lunch must vary in quantity and
somewhat in quality, but there are
general directions which will apply to
all lunch packing.
There is no one who is so blind to
the niceties of life that he does not
appreciate a well-prepared and packed
lunch, though it be nothing but
sandwich. Throwing together a mess
of food, totally unrelated, mixing
fiavors and making messy, unsightly
appearance would disturb the diges-
ton of an ostrich.
The daily sandwich is almost a ne.
cessity, though at times scoop out
roll or two and fill with salad, not
too moist, which will make most
palatable dish.
Personal tastes must always be
taken into account when preparing q
lunch basket.
The one who likes a hot or cold
drink can carry 1t in thermos bottle.
For those who are fond of fresh
ripe tomatoes a most appetizing sand
witch may be prepared. Place slice
of tomato, a thin slice Of cheese, with
a little salad dressing between slices
of buttered bread. Two Of these with
two of some other variety, with a cup
cake and an apple or other fruit will
make a good lunch with a glass of
milk.
In many of our country schools
where domestic science is taught the
children prepare one hot dish at noon.
This helps out the mother with her
lunch packing.
Two sandwiches of bread and butter
with jam or jelly and two of chopped
ham and a glass Of apple salad, a
piece of ginger bread and cup of hot
cocoa is another good days luncheon.
A handful of nuts, few dates, a
piece of candy, a fresh apple, pear or
banana will always delight the child.
Those of US who can remember
when we carried lunch to school.
what thrill we had on finding down
in corner or hidden carefully a
small treat all wrapped away to sur
prise us, will be happy to do the same
willing service for those who must
carry lunches.

handicap. The young men were

from the handling of the soil to
the turning of the finished pro-
