all the iron sulphdes containing from 25 to So

The commercial uses of greatest importance
are the production of sulphuric acid and sui

can't be blamed the tiger, but it gave me
one Of the closest calls of my life.
I'VE had trapped one of the big cats, fine
specimen, a male measuring nearly 10 feet In
length and decided to take him to an Enclosure
we had built and release him. My hunch was
that he would make for the heavy brush, but
eventually he would come out and wander
about so we could get some splendid pictures
OF him In his natural element,
III IE went into the brush all right, but there
he stayed We tried everything to get
him out, hurting stones into the brush and yell
ing at the top OF our lungs, even throwing
where We thought he might have gone, but 1t
didn't bulge him.
I'VE waited on top of the inclosure we had
no signs Of the tiger. So decided to 60 into
the brush with = lighted flare and see If I
couldn't rout Mr.. Cat out into the open.
"Ali, my faithful boy went with me and we
climbed over the wall lighted the flares and
started to round up the animal. left my rifle
leaning against small tree and preceded Ali
into the thicket, poking the flare ahead Of
me in all directions.
Suddenly, We heard q tremendous roar and
a crashing of the brush The tiger was heading
for me from point at my left! I stepped back
to give myself more room to manipulate the
flare, caught my foot in a creeper and went
down fiat on my back

"Cure Dec1aredUse eless

ONE of the cruelest fakes is that which preys
upon the sick by Offering false hopes Of
cure. The Federal Food and Drug Administra-
tion has trapped another of these and barred
the product from the market.
In the case referred to, . patent medicine
from Germany was placed on the market Offer

declare cannot be cured by any known drug or

The only safe and reliable treatment known
for this disease is the hypodermic injection Of
insulin, together with a properly regulated diet.

and the spluttering flare dropped when I
fell!
He probably made for me and changed his
mind when he faced the flare, jumping over me
without knowing what he did!
I'VE got to the corner of the heavy brush
when Mr.. Tiger came bursting again. I had
to shoot from the waist. He was too close for
me to miss, and he reared up with his forelegs
outstretched dropping almost at my feet with
a shattered shoulder. I had to finish him with
a shot in the head We measured from my
footprint to where the beast lay and he was

How about the man n-eating tiger? Is there
such an animal?
"Man-eaters are not just ordinary tigers"
says Mr.. Buck. "A normal tiger seldom at

o ambitious young men who are look
ing for a business career in a field
that isn't overcrowded, Frank Buck
suggests the Malayan jungles, where
wild beasts and reptiles just

back to the various geological gardens and the
circuses Of the civilized world!
One doesn't need a college education for this
work; 1t only requires courage, resourcefulness,
patience and keeping ones head in the face
OF impending disaster, for the animals often
outwit those who would capture them.
OF course, some hair raising exploits may
take the edge of ones nerve, but the experience
gained will 60 toward making the newly estab-
lished dealer in wild animals peer in his

when was q lad" Mr.. Buck says, Il had
. mania for making pets of 'coons, skunks,
prairie dogs, snakes and birds and my poor
mother never knew what would bring home
next!
Il had no playmates. I interested myself
in catching the small animals in that section,
and I didn't draw the line at Fattlers nor
cOpperheads!"
1 us mother drew the line, however, when
! ! she came upon him one day and found
him trying to de-fang a copperhead with .
pair Of pliers. He remembers that episode
wildly first, because it was the only whipping
she ever gave him and second, because he
was unable to sit down comfortably for sew
eral days.
When he grew older his family moved just
outside of Dallas, Tex, and he took an interest
in birds.
Mother didn't mind that" he says. I'm
fact she encouraged me and bought all the
books on birds she could get. Almost without
knowing it, became a student of ornithology
and even today still regard birds as my
first love-"
At the age of 27 Buck was working in .

and hadn't given up the idea of some day
going into the jungle and bringing back rare
birds-birds he had read about in his teens.
He thought it was about time he made his
dream come true, he took trip to Brazil
and was fortunate enough to capture a num-
ber Of rare birds and bring them home.
For as years since then he has been going
into the jungles and capturing live animals.
He has covered most of Asia and Africa but he
prefers the Malayan jungles to the African
veldt.

the game ended in a scoreless
