Wi 1 1 I How Dr. Rainsfori m Noted Preacher Tells of At || as Wounded Animal Bourn E? In the spring of 1908 the Re\ gg Dr. W. S. Rainsford, formerly th I? rector of St. George's Protestan ill Episcopal Church, in this city, mad H a hunting trip for big game on th Nzola plateau, in British East Afri gj| ca. He recorded his experiences a they occurred, writing sometimes o muleback, sometimes during th noonday halts or on rainy days. I the "World's Work" he says: "We had made permanent cam near a fine spring of wat?r and i most excellent game country, som .twenty miles north of Sergoit. A: through this country the anthills some of them of great size, stan thickly, and the game has a habit c 5 mounting them and looking arounc ^ "Suddenly my Brownie whispere 'Simba,' pointing at a clump c bushes two hundred yards away; an I knew that, after long waiting, was at least within shooting distanc of a lion at last. To many a ma such a moment may have come as a ordinary one, but not so to me. Da after day, for five long months, I ha never gone out hunting in the earl morning witnout nopmg ana longin to find myself face to face with th finest beast in the world, the lion c . British East Africa. < "One hundred and seventy yard In front of the bush we crouched, ur der a bushy screen of thorn stretche for twenty or thirty yards. Beyon that rose a wide, low, red anthill, an round the warm, sunny, bare bas of it there seemed to be a buff col ored, yellowish mass. The intervenin thorns hid the crown of the anthili and anything there might be on i was invisible to me, but tne fawn colored mass at the base just showc movement to the naked eye, an< through the glass I saw legs and tail and yellow flanks and heads al pressed together, as that great ca family?the lion, his harem and thei offspring?took their pleasure in th sun. "I made up my mind what I shouli do. I knew well, of course, that, i the wind did give me away, the lion might just retire behind the ant hea; I they were lying on, and then all m; trouble would begin over again; bu I was not without hope that, whei they got the wind, they would com forth just for one moment to mak sure, and I staked my all on that. I hard luck had been mine in my loni waiting, surely fortune would smil on me at last. I crawled away froc my men, and sitting up in the grass here two feet high, where I couli command the side toward the river I rested my elbows on my knees ari< waited. A Moment of Tension. "Was there a big lion amoni them? Would they clear at once Or would they wait and make sure Would they stand? Would the; charge? I had my tense, glorlou moment surely. I could hear th panting breath of the two men wh< had crawled out after me and wep now crouching beside me. And then at the last, fortune smiled on me, in deed. I saw a movement among thi tawny mass. And slowly, casually out of the bosom of his family, hi came. And the lion of my dreams hi seemed. Big and black, witn no com mon blackness, surely the true kini of that wild and beautiful place Slowly, on and on, till in the middl of the narrow, green, grassy aisle h< stood, the sun shining full on hi magnificent coat, and the dark, rich low hanging mane that covered hi shoulders. Then slowly, carelessly he turned his broad black head to ward me and sniffed the tainted ai that drifted down to him over th dewy grass. Who shall attempt t describe the feelings of the man whc after long waiting, knows, as h steadily presses the yielding trigge home, that he is 'on!' That triumph ant instant may be the result of som dark survival of, barbarism withi; him; all the same it is living! It i glorious! It was mine, and is par v of me forever. "A deep grunting roar answere the shot, and quickly he swun; round his body toward where it cam from. As he did so, I fired ver -quickly again, just as fast as I coul move my Mauser's bolt. Then h saw me, and with another deep grun came straight for where I sat, wit great, long bounds. The distanc from where I sat to where the lio stood I measured carefully afterward It was 170 yards, and now he cam 120 of them faster than I could hav believed it possible for any badl ntr/^mTn r?TmP( l BAUT1U BITS J The Hal]aeas of Vene Japan in It is true that one can find almo: anything he wants in New Yorkanything he wants to eat particular^ Of course the rubberneck wagon* knows that there are a lot of thing to eat in Chinatown that he doesn have back home in Adrian, Mich and the Forty-second street bo vivant knows tiie lurking place of tb broiled soras and the snails; bt even he lives to learn. Here is som< thing gustatory that may be possibl new even to him: The hallacas of Venezuela is i town, likewise the'honorable raufls (vernacular unpronounceable) ( Japan, with soy sauce. First th habitat and characteristics of tb hallacas, properly "hayacas" in th Spaa is n: It c?a be found in a little Spanis restaurant much patronized by Sout Americans down in the heart of th coffee and tobacco district on Peai street, just north of Wall. Th dainty comes steaming to the tab! wrapped coyly in a green banana lea It must first be stripped of its habil ments, then eaten with a glass c Riocca wine at hand. A pork tamale is the hallaca; Minced pork and cornmeal. steame together, is its body. There ai raisins in the meal and a stoned oliv* .With just enough chili sauce to gi\ \ d Got His First Lion tican Hunt?Sat Still in Grass led Toward Him, Then Fired r.i wounded beast to come. The grass e was just long enough to hide his t body from me, except when he was e actually bounding in his stride. If e I had risen to my feet, of course, I I- could have seen him more clearly, s but I had thought the whole thing n out beforehand and had determined e to remain seated. With elbow on n knee, you have an absolutely steady j rest and are not as apt to throw away I p a shot as you may be standing up. n "So I sat fast, determined not to e fire again until I could kill him dead, 11 even if I had to let him come to 5, within a very few yards of me. I d knew, besides, that I had hit him if hard at the first shot, and I hoped I I. had landed the second, but could not d be sure. I did not believe he could if last the distance, certainly not at the d pace ho started. One more reason I pinned me to the ground. It was my e first lion. It was all-important to n give my gun bearers confidence. If n I stood up they might be dancing y round me and, in spite of the awful d threatenings I had fulminated against y any one who should ever under any g circumstances fire one of my guns, e the guns might have gone off themif selves, as gun bearers' guns have a way of doing; whereas if I sat, they s must sit, too; and sitting sobered i- them. d Knocks Out Native With Elbow. "I glanced at my men quickly as the lion made that grand rush over , the first hundred yards, and it was well I did. My Wakamba, Brownie, I was sitting still as a stone. But the i ^ Somali, Dooda, his eyes and teeth ! gleaming, raised my double .450 to ^ his shoulder and was on the point of ^ firing when I hit him a smart rap under the chin with my right elbow, j I which had the effect of putting him t and the gun out of commission for a few minutes. "At about fifty yards the lion raised his head high above the grass ^ and slowed down to a trot, and, as j I saw his breast, I shot full into It, and the great dark head and yellow eyes sank slowly from sight again. y There was just one instant's pause, t and out of the grass came the big forefeet and the tip of the tail. He e was dead without a groan. I turned e as quickly as I could to see what had f become of the rest, and I was only in time to fire at a large lioness as she made off in the grass. I missed her, and, to tell the truth, did not ( care. I had drunk deep just then j and was quite contented to let the whole family of them go. Had I not j seen the great paws of the king himself stretched upward to the sky? "My men ran to the anthill and could count the troop as'they crossed 5 the distant rise of land. When they returned they told me that they had counted eight lionesses and halfy grown or three-quarter-grown cubs, s I went over and stood by my first e lion. He was a magnificent fellow 3 indeed, very large and in fine condie tion, with a quite first class mane. , As he lay dead, the tape, passed from - the tip of the nose to the tip of the & tail, gave him 10 feet 5 inches; the '? stretched skin was 12 feet 6 inches." e e Charity of the Country Editor. y Did you ever stop to think that a j !. newspaper is a charitable institution? | e There are, however, times when the | e charity of the country editor seems j s to have been wasted on barren soil i, and on such occasions he is justified s in refusing to again extend the same charity to the same persons who fail i- to appreciate his efforts. Such cases r have come to almost every editor in e his career. How many of them have o sat up nights studying how to assist >, some candidate to land the office he e is seeking? How many have spent J r column after column of their paper i- telling of the virtues of certain | e lodges, societies, churches or individ- j a uals in an effort to assist them over s rough places in their journey? How t many have donated space and advertising to the successful accomplishd ment of some public enterprise only g to have that same church, society, e individual or officers of the enterprise y as soon as their ends were obtained d rush off to another printing house or e 50 to the city to have all their printit ing done? This is too often the case, h and though it is hard indeed to kill ! e the charity of a country newspaper ! n man, such treatment is the surest j I. way to do so. Yes, the charity of the j e country editor for his fellows is sure- ' e ly great, but even this may be over- j y worked and abused sometimes. ?0R GOURMETS. | I izuela and Haw Fish of !

THE FIRST TAXICAB. fo A1 We are accustomed to regard the P'l taxicab as an invention of recent years, but the idea dates back more 7/? than 1600 years, and originated in in China. Professor Giles, of Cambridge, has discovered in the dynas- w( tic histories of the Celestial Empire a tr< "" , ; THIS WAS THE "MEASURE-MILE-DI NESE SIXTEEN HUNDI full specification of a taxicab of the th year 265 A. D., and the accompany- th ing photograph shows a model of the la: chassis made by Professor Hopkin- ail son. This history describes the vehi- mi cle as follows: mi "The measure-mile-drum-carriage is Tt drawn by four horses. In the middle wt of it there is a wooden figure of a we man holding a drumstick toward a drum. At the completion of every '11' (the Chinese mile) the man strikes a blow on the drum." Cil Other records, covering the Chinese reigns from A. D. 815 to 987, further ? ' discuss the appearance of the "taxi- y caDs:" "They are painted red, with pictures of flowers and birds on the four sides, and are in two stories, handsomely adorned with carvings. At the completion of every *li* the wooden figure of a man in the lower story . strikes a drum, and at the completion '. of every ten 'li* a man in the upper story strikes a bell. There is a pole with a phoenixlike head, and a team of four horses. Formerly the chariot '. held eighteen soldiers, which number ^ was increased to thirty by the Emperor T'si-Tsung." The popularity of this peculiar car- ? riage, even as late as the fourteenth century, is attested by a poem entitled "Ode to a Taxicab."?Harper's ' Weekly. Animated False Face.

An ingenious device by whicb airs can be reseated at a fraction the time formerly required, and a person of no experienco in aucb irk, has been patented by a Massa1 V s) lsetts man. This is a form of aditable clip, which is so simple that an with no mechanical ability at can put a new bottom in a chair a few minutes, or as long as it 1 take to hammer four of the clips 0 place. These clips consist of ces of metal bent so as to form an set, or elbow, and having their ding ends pointed so that they 1 be driven into the bottom frame, s body of the clip has a slot for the ding screws and a holding nib at rear end. All that is necessary to screw a clip at each corner of seat close to the edge, place the t on the bottom frame and drive pointed ends of the clips into the me.

A better way than binding, to prolong the usefulness of a Smyrna rug that has been whipped out at the ends and has a good centre, is to cut off the old binding and ravel until you have about three or four inches of warp. Begin at one end and take up six strands of warp and with the aid of a crochet or button hook knot securely against the rug. By taking three of these strands in each hand and pulling in opposite directions the knot will slide closer to the rug and prevent the "filler" from ravelling.
