Probably Bob. He just wants to
get acquainted. Take him by the
scruff of the neck and put him under
the blankets with you and he'll sleep
quietly till daybreak. He's just a

better to bear the fears that l had
than fly to others that knew not Of.

arousing a snarl from Bob as l did
so, wrapped it around me up to my
chin. and sliding quietly to the floor
lay awake for the remainder Of the
night.
Just at daylight l was awakened
by a sensation of smothering and
found that it was necessary to re-
move moderately heavy black OBJ
ject from my chest before 1 could
rise. The black object gave a snort
as he was evicted, and scurried away
across the floor. There was thump-
ing sound, and I observed with con-
siderable pleasure that it had leaped
to Bills bunk and aroused him.
But the dispute l had anticipated
did not take place. Instead Bill said
sleepily: "That's right, old fellow,
crawl in and get warm" And l
heard some creature whine a sort of
assent as it burrowed its way under
the bedclothes.

examined my own premises more
carefully, evicted couple of squir-
rels and garter snake, and shutting
out all possibility of approach, by
winding blankets about me, climbed
in and slept till the smell of coffee
and the footsteps of my host told me
that breakfast was on the fire.
During the meal learned that he
had been sent up here by some asso-
citation for the study Of biology In
the wild state, and that he had been
collecting and tanning few crea-
lures for observation. There being
no way to get out Of the place till
that night I complied with his re-

United States Produces
Little, Uses Much Tin

The worlds annual production of
tin has varied in the last ten years
from about $4,000 to 10000 long
tons. About one-third Of this is pro-
duced in the Federated Malay States,
a British possession in southern
Asia; next in Importance are the tin
mines Of Bolivia and the Dutch
East Indies, and less important pro-
ducers are Nigeria, China, Siam, Bel
gian Congo, Tasmania and some of
the European countries.
The United States is the largest
consumer of tin, but our domestic
production of this metal is negligi-
BILE. Owing to the great Importance
of tin in both war and peace times,
congress has recently Investigated
sources Of production and conserva-
ton of this metal. It's greatest uses
are to be found in the making of
such alloys as tinplate, soldiers, bear
ing metals, bronzes; in the food can
ming industry and as tinfoil for wrap
ping various commodities.
In 1882 the United States import
ed 39,998 tons Of tin, valued at $780,
473,99S or about 20 cents a pound
during 1888, however, the price went
up rapidly to about 80 cents a pound.

In THE GREAT HEART
OF NATURE
By
JAMES T. MONTAGUE

The first news I'd had of Bill since
we had both left school came in an
urgent invitation to come and live
with him few weeks in "the great
heart Of nature" From the post
mark on the letter 1.-THE great heart
Of nature" appeared to be along a
river In the northeast part of the
United States. The name of the
river, and that Of the village through
which 1t ran, were on the outside of
the envelope. I had liked Bill a lot
when we palled around together, and,
as l was out Of job I packed up a
kit containing what l thought might
be needful. purchased a railroad
ticket and set forth. What Bills job
or avocation was I did not know.
But he appeared to be able to feed
an extra mouth for while, and /
was willing to take a chance.
I arrived at midnight, but he was
waiting for me. Around and over
the station was a midnight pail, back
Of which supposed the great heart
Of nature was beating solemnly. We
talked of old times as he drove me
through road neither side Of which
was visible, but the bumpy surface
Of which was a little unsettling. Ar
rived at his abode, a two-room log
shack, he offered me a drink, and
observed:
"Tl show you around the place in
the morning. Tell you about it, too.
But you're tired and sleepy now.
There's your shakedown in the cor
ner. Roll in, for we'll be up and
doing at daylight"

"No harm in him. He's just a

the darkness, and rested at last on

ner. "Take a look at him, and you
wort worry about him. I'll tell you
more In the morning."
The tones were reassuring, but
