You don't have to go near any wild or domestic animal to tame it. y It will come to you and live with you and sleep with you. All you have to do is simply to conceal your own curiosity. Whenever you see a wild animal in the woods go toward him carelessly. Let the creature know that you have seen him and then suddenly change || your course or do something to showthat you aren't apparently interested in him. Pay absolutely no attention to him. He knows that you saw him and yet went about your own business without offering to harm him. That animal will never forget you. It is not man that the wild animal is afraid of, but the human scent. If a deer, for instance, sees a man standing still in the forest and the wind is blowing in the wrong way for him to catch the scent, he thinks the man is a part of the forest Just like a log or a tree, but the minute he catches the scent he is on the alert. Perhaps in his own life the human scent has meant danger to him. On the other hand, while it may never have bother^ ed him, the human scent may have meant injury to some of his forbears and so he naturally inherits the ina*lnAfl?fA foO t? However, in that scent the animal can analyze the man. He can instinctively read a man's character by his smell. This is the reason why a deer will fly from one person the moment he gets his scent, while he will stand ^ by and watch out of curiosity another man who means him no harm. ^ Deer and moose never tight unless cornered. Even the wildcat will slink away to the underbrush at the sound of a man's footfall. A hunger enraged wolf will never dare approach a tire. Fire is protection from any anig mal. All kinds of dogs will come up to me. They seem to know instinctively that I am their friend. I don't care how cross a dog is I can readily make friends with him. Don't think for a moment that you can say to any ugly dog, "Nice doggy," ^ in a voice that is quivering with fear | ^ ? v' ' ' ' I ^ x WILDCAT WATCHING of [Drawn by the author in the woods on blr and get away with it. The dog won't pay any attention to the "nice doggy" part, but he will scent that fear. There was one saucy chipmunk that w used to come and visit me daily at my Hear mountain lean-to. He would chatter with me. fill his chops with bits of food and scurry away to bury them. Sometimes he would come around three or four times a day. He paid no more attention to me, as far as being afraid of me was concerned, than if I were not there. || one day while I was cooking some trout I heard an awful disturbance around the back of my lean-to. I investigated and found a furious battle going on between a red squirrel and I my friend the chipmunk. The big red (I squirrel had trespassed on the chipmunk's stamping ground, and, of course, that would never do. It was a dreadful fight for little fellows to be engaged in. Around and around they tore, through the leaves, under the tangle, over fallen trunks, up the trees and down again. Occasionally they came together, and then nothing could be seen but one flying ball of ^ fur. Getting apart again, they would ^ rest a second, panting, before resuming the contest. Swish! They were at it again, and another wild scene would be repeated, in the end that spunky little chipmunk A actually beat the red squirrel and drove him off. After that the red squirrel used to come around every day and from a distance would scream and scold at the chipmunk (the red squirrel has a sort of bark). Then he would see me and begin to bark at me because he knew I was friendly with the chipmunk. At this the chipmunk came right up to me and began to play around my feet, though I had never attempted in mane incnu? wmi hum. He made friends with me. I knew what went <?n in the minds of these little animals. Sleeping with one's bnek against the roots of a spruee hlowdown in fair weather is not the worst thing in tne world, hut that morning when T awoke in the wilderness?the day after I had found the deer killed by the ' wildcat?it was raining hard. Digging down in my pack, I found some dried raspberries, of which I ate sparingly. After breakfast I packed up my f small deerskin and bearskin and started off again along the natural game trail. I didn't select any special direction, but after walking some time I saw that I was headed for what is known as the Horseshoe country. ! WILDERNESS KNOWLES & Co. This morning the feeling within me to give up the experiment was stronger than ever. I hated the woods, the world and myself. I walked for miles, going wherever the path took me, until well into the ufternoon. when I suddenly perceived that I was pretty well into a swamp. Desirous of getting as far away as possible, I hadn't noticed where the trail was leading me. Thinking I could get through the bog all right, I kept straight ahead. Xight came on with a rush. I decided to pick out the driest place I could find and camp there for the night, but with the soggy condition of the ground itself and the rain that was still falling, it was impossible to find a dry spot. I attempted to make a fire, but after a quarter of an hour of the most discouraging work I had to give it up. By this time it* was very dark, and I saw that something must be done. I couldn't stand there all night, neither could I rest on that soaking ground, so I started blindly through ~ ?(?1. Into th? llll- laiis?-n, ^limine uv..... mu<1 and water at every other step. My pack hampered me greatly, and I saw that I must get rid of it. I swung it off my back and hung it on to the limb of a dead cedar and proceeded to spot the trail by breaking over limbs and underbrush. At daylight I planned to come back for my pack. It began to get cold now, and I realized how foolish I had been to leave that bearskin behind. I was naked. For the first time since entering the wilderness I was really suffering physically. Above all else I wanted a solid place to put my feet. Once when the moon came out again I saw some kind of a clearing in front of me. In the distance I could just make out the outline of higher land against the sky. With this goal in sight. I increased my weary efforts. I had nearly reached the center of this opening on the dead cedars, which were half buried in the grass and mud. when I discovered in my path a dead stream. I followed along int* mull duiik, srai tiling *vm a fallen tree where I might cross. DEER AND FAWN. ch bark with burnt sticks from his fires, j Finally, I found one and was mighty thankful for it. as the footing was getting almost impossible. Carefully I began to walk over that fallen tree, and treacherous footing it was. for the bark was as slippery as glass. I curled up my toes like a monkey to get a better hold, hoping that the moon would light my way until T got to the other side. But luck was not with me that night, for no sooner did hope of the moon enter my head than a black shadow fell across my path. Inky blackness again settled down over the wilderness, leaving me helpless. 1 tried to stand perfectly still to get my bearings, but suddenly the bark under my feet seemed to slip, and I wits thrown into the mud and water below. I remember as I rose to my knees 1 felt its if I didn't care what happened. I was weary in body and mind, but J kept on struggling. It took every ounce of strength I had left to get my legs out of the mud and crawl buck on the log. I waited for the moon again, but it didn't appear. so I commenced to crawl along on my hands and knees to the other end of the log. ^ H^^OF SERBIAN ARMY General I'utnik, t-ommander-in-chiei of the Servian army. Finally I reached the other side. Over, there, what was my dismap to find that the mud was even worse. Then I discovered that I was on a floating log. I knew it would be useless to go on, so I again crawled back over the log. Struggling back to the big bog I had just left, I found a place under some scrub spruce and cedars, where I waited for the morning light. It was the longest night I ever spent and when morning finally dawned, I was, to use a familiar expression, "all in." The mere realization that I could move myself around without fear of tripping over some fallen tree gave me courage to go back through the swamp in search of my pack. After a short tramp through the mud I came upon signs of my spotted trail and presently found the dead cedar on which it hung. That night found me with a good fire in my lean-to on the northwest I side of Hear mountain. More irom exhaustion than anything else I dropped into a deep sleep, but it was not a restful one. I awoke in the darkness burning up with heat. I threw my bearskin covering to one side for relief. I began to have chills, and I reached for my bearskin and threw it over me. Then I felt as if I were on fire again. "It's all off now for sure," I muttered to myself. "I'll make a try to get to King and Bartlett's in the morning." All the rest of the night I thrashed around on my bed of moss and boughs. T hewn tr* tvnnrlop if T wns frninc tn lose my mind. When daylight came at last I tried to pet up. I felt light headed, and my head ached dreadfully. Aching all over, I finally gathered myself together and made my way down the trail in the direction of King and Hartlett's. I was going out of the wilderness. I had fully determined upon that. I would walk a little distance and then, feeling too badly to go on, would sit down with my back against a tree to rest. It didn't seem as if I could go very much further. The thought came confusedly into my mind that it was September. Anyway, I had stayed until September! Presently I started off again. I could not see very clearly. Nevertheless, I could hear perfectly well, for the next moment I heard an awful racket off the trail to my left. (To Be Continued). "VOTE FOR DAD." Unusual Campaign That Is Being Made In Kansas. A strange political campaign is being curried on throughout Kansas by Mrs. Irma Doster-Farnsworth and Mrs. Chase Doster, says a Topeka letter. When Chief Justice Prank Doster, of the Kansas supreme court, decided to run for the Democratic nomination for the United States senate, his daughter and daughter-in-law were his first enthusiastic supporters. The idea of using their musical ability in his political race originated with them and was well under way before their father knew of it. Their method is to give an open-air concert interspersed with two-minute political speeches. "We are not traveling in the interests of a cure-all for humanity's physical ills." she tells the denizens of each town. "But we are interested in all political ills, and have come to you in the interest of our father. Judge I' rank Duster, or TopeKa. Ha is known j to most of you. You stood by him in | the old Populist days and elected him chief justice of the supreme court of Kansas. He is counting on you to stand by him now, for United States senator. "It is impossible for him to reach all parts of the state, and he regrets that he cannot be here himself and talk to you. I told you we were interested in political remedies. That is a subject which has always been lirst in Judge Duster's mind. "You will remember how some years ago his political doctrines were ridiculed by the conservative minded, but till the ideas he then advanced are now incorporated in the platforms of nearly all political parties and that many of them have already been enacted into laws in Kansas. As you all know he is an advanced political thinker. Iiut there is one thing that Judge Frank Duster cannot do and that is to sing his own praises, so we, his two, daughters, have come to do it fi>r him. It is such a thoughtful, farseeing man. one with the sound political judgment which Judge Duster has shown himself to have been, whom Kansans want to represent them in the I'nited States senate. So please vote for "Dad." The programme continues and at the close Mrs. Doster-Fnrnsworth makes a speech confirming her sister's reasons why "Dad" should go to the senate and announces that "literature" concerning Judge Duster's candidacy will now be distributed. The two boys pass out Duster political literature and are glad to have the fun of being part of the excitement. A copy of the poster spread throughout the state by the two feminine a in pawners, is hero shown.

FOOTSTEPS OF THE FATHERS As Traced In Early Flies of The Yorkvllle Enquirer NEWS AND VIEWS OF YESTERDAY Bringing Up Records of the Past and Giving the Younger Readers of Today a Pretty Comprehensive Knowledge of the Things that Most Concerned Generations that Have Gone Before. The first installment of the notes appearing under this heading was published in our issue of November 14. 1913. The notes are being prepared by the editor as time and opportunity permit. Their purpose is to bring into review the events of the past for the pleasure and satisfaction of the older people and for the entertainment and instruction of the present generation. SEVENTIETH INSTALLMENT Friday Evening, May 17, 1861. Dear Enquirer:?Some movements which we are not informed upon fully enough to speak of in detail and with satisfaction, are just now being made among the South Carolina volunteers in the neighborhood of Charleston. We understand that a portion of Col. Rion's regiment, and it may be others, have been ordered home. Yesterday evening and this morning, the report was rife in our camp that we should be disposed of in the same way. Indeed, orders to this or a kindred effect, had, we believe, been communicated to Col. Jenkins. Gen. Beauregard, however, on yester day wrote to Gov. Pickens pressing' upon him the exposed condition in j which the coast would be left, with two ! or three war vessels of the enemy frequently in sight, and the necessity of retaining a portion of the troops?say live or six hundred?to assist the regulars here, and the volunteers of Charleston, in preventing the possible invasion of our soil. The large majority of the Jaspers, this morning, and a number from some of the other companies, volunteered their services to remain. Many causes, however, conspired to prevent anything like an unanimous vote of the regiment. Some think there is no danger, and, therefore, no need of us here; others wish to go to Virginia; others shrink from encountering the yellow fever, or other diseases during an idle garrison life?as they suppose? for the summer among the marshes, and swamps of the low-country; and others still, feeling that the state is secure, are desirous of returning to their work-shops, their farms or their merchandise. As we proceed with this writing now, after the island boat for one o'clock this evening has arrived, two or three unofficial acounts of our "status" a*id probable future, reach us. All reports concur to make us believe that the regiment will not be disbanded?so the Virginia fever may as well, for the present, die out in our camp?and of OFFICERS AND three reports, one says that we all ro home, another that two or three hundred ro to North Edisto, and a third that we all remain somewhere on or near the coast. Where's the philosopher that could find the "needle of truth in this "hay-stack" of contradictions? 1 urat- tuiiiiiviiiiH > uiuuio uiv vw ? greatly deprecated, la-cause they operate differently on different minds, and, therefore, produce division in the regiment. We should have mentioned in our last that the "A. and A.," Oapt. Hutchinson, a merchant vessel from Belfast, Ireland, ran the gauntlet Qf the Niagara safely on last Sunday, It was an exciting race for a while; but the "A. and A.," got across the bar and ran up among the breakers where the Niagara could not reach her. She was towed on Monday morning; and before noon, had engaged a load of cotton at 2 to 2A nence iter nound?or about $1f> per bale! The Niaparn has been absent for a few days; and several vessels which have made their way in. p< return freipht in cotton, at say $20 per bale. "Cotton is kinp." So abruptly for "better or for worser," with two eyes that can't see further than the end of our noses into the future, we are Cordially, Cur Corporal. (Friday Morninp, May 24. 1SC1). Editorial Correspondence. Sullivan's Island, Monday IOveninp. May 20. Dear Enquirer: You have seen it stated in the newspapers that the troops who have been ipiartered on the Capitol grounds at Washington, were converting the public buildings into a regular hog-pen and bacon-house. This is even so. Hogs dead and alive, are desecrating the place where Clay, Calhoun and Webster once stood and wrestled like giants for the weal of the defunct nation. We have thought of this as a kind of retribution for the chuckling joy felt at the north for the reign of the Red Republicans in France. A nation's sympathies?especially a republic's?mould its destiny; and we can now say of the north, as a northern poet has exultingly said of France in the day of her disaster. "The rough-shod foot of the people treads In the silken rooms of royalty." A private letter from Memphis to our i camp speaks of a gentleman just from ' Washington, who confirms the most loathsome news that has reached us from that place. The capitol huildiiv are shamelessly besmeared with grease jI and abused in every way. Lincoln is "nossessed with unclean spirits" con stantly. He has the fear of Jeff Davis brfore his eyes, and sleeps no two nights in the same place. How disgusting and ridiculous! South Carolina's promptitude and uncalculating devotion in defense of r her principles, are reaping their reward ^ at every turn. She has, without the i loss of life, obtained her complete emancipation. They now give a pecu- ^ liar and honorable distinction to her ^ Carolina for the. Confederate service; J that is, if we are to credit the last 1 news. This news is that 8,000 volunteers have been called for from South | Carolina for the Confedrate service; J but in view of the fact that her forces * were long since organized into regi- j ments and officered at the call of the I state, to serve her twelve months when she stood alone, the present organization is to be maintained, and we will go to Virginia or remain here our time just as we choose. Five thousand only ? are wanted for Virginia; the other three being needed to defend our coast. All these facts show that Nature loves , to privilege those who are prompt to defend the right?who swerve neither to the right nor the left?who count not the cost. The blockade here has been a complete blunder so far. The Niagara stayed just long enough, to let a few ships run in in spite of her, and to turn . a few off; and her departure leaves the port as open as ever. All this is blunder, blunder from beginning to end; a Bedlamite could not do worse. The first brings the blockade into contempt; and the second excites the ire of John- ] ny Bull. In fact the British consul here, Mr. Bunch, has made out an account of the damages done to British shipping interests by this milk-andwater blockade, and sent them on to . Lord Lyons, and Lord Lyons has presented them to the Lincoln government. The third?that is the departure of the Niagara?leaves the thing where it began?perfectly unsettled?with no advantage gained and a difficulty provoked with a foreign power! They opened their mouth this time, and put their foot in it. There is no news in reference to the regiment. A little more sickness than usual prevails. No one dangerous, however. The increasing heat is, perhaps the occasion of the sickness. Some little dissatisfaction exists; but we really know no good reason why. We have been treated in every sense well. Idle rumors are constantly afloat?groundless often; but they work their work, like an evil genius. We hope, however, that all will be right in the end. There is no storm at all; and little clouds will soon blow over. 1 So we are, Hopefully, i Our Corporal. i (To be Continued). MEN OF THE RUSSIAN EACH QUAIL WORTH $5. Bira's Value to Farmer High, as It Eats Bugs. Careful students of its habits have rateu every quau as wunn n> wc farmer, says the Baltimore Sun.

Saw Europe In Flames and Heard the Lamentations of Battlefield*. In February, 1913 the Globe-Democrat printed an article by Countess Nastasia Tolstoy, in which she told of an interview she had had with her great relative, Leo Tolstoy, In the autumn of 1910, in the course of which he described to her a vision that had appeared to him frequently during the two years preceding the interview. "I have had," he said to her, "some really strange experiences which I could not publish as fiction. There is something that has haunted me for the past two years. I don't know how to explain the nature of it to you. I cannot call it a dream, because I have seen it often while I have been sitting at my writing table. On other occasions it has appeared to me at twilight, before my dinner hour. I am not a believer in ghosts, nor In the spiritualistic explanations of phenomena; but I admit that I cannot account for this mysterious affair." "Is it a vision?" I interrupted. "Something of that order, but very clear. So clear that I could draw a distinct picture of all that transpires. Furthermore, I can call up the whole vision at will. I am almost sure 1 could do it while you are here. The only difficulty is, that I am not able to write anything during the time of the manifestation. My hands are absolutely paralyzed." "I shall be happy to write down what you dictate," I urged. very good: mat setues tne maiter," he replied. "I shall try for something immediately. There on the table are paper and pencil. Or use a pen? whatever you want." In a few minutes I was waiting for the great moment, pencil and paper in hand. My aged host leaned back in his chair, covered his eyes with his hand and relapsed into an apparently comatose condition. For ten minutes he remained absolutely motionless. Then straightening up like one in a trance, he began in a low and hollow voice: "This is a revelation of events of a universal character, which must shortly come to pass. Their spiritual out lines are now before my eyes. I see boating upon the surface of the sea of human fate the huge silhouette of a nude woman. She is?with her beauty, her poise, her smile, her Jewels?a super-Venus. Nations rush madly after her, each of them eager to attract her especially. But she, like an eternal courtesan, flirts with all. In her hairornament of diamonds and rubles is engraved her name: 'Commercialism.' As alluring and bewitching as she seems, much destruction and agony follows in her wake. Her breath, reeking of sordid transactions, her voice of metallic character like gold, and her look of greed are so much poison to the nations who fall victims to her charms. "And behold, she has three gigantic arms with three torches of universal corruption in her hand. The first torch represents the flame of war, that the beautiful courtesan carries from city to city and country to country. Patriotism answers with flashes of honest flame, but the end is the roar of guns and mnnlfptrv "The second torch bears the flame of bigotry and hypocrisy. It lights the lamps only in temples and on the altars of sacred institutions. It carries the seed of falsity and fanaticism. It kindles the minds that are still in cradles and follows them to their graves. "The third torch is that of the law. that dangerous foundation of all unauthentic traditions, which first does its fatal work in the family, then sweeps through the larger worlds of literature, art and statesmanship. "The great conflagration will start about 1912, set by the torch of the first arm in the countries of southeastern Europe. It will develop into a destructive calamity in 1913. In that year I see all Europe in flames and bleeding. I hear the lamentations of huge battlefields. But about the year 1915 a strange figure from the north?a new Napoleon?enters the stage of tlv; bloody drama. He is a man of little militaristic training, a writer or a Journalist, but in his grip most of Europe will remain till 1925. The end of the great calamity will make a new political era for the Old World. There will be left no empires and kingdoms, but the world will form a federation of the L'nited States of Nations. There will remain only four great giants?the Anglo-Saxons, the Iaitins, the Slavs and the Mongolians."?St. Louis OlobeDemocrat. ? Governor Blease has written the following letter to Hon. E. J. Watson, under date of August 6: "Dear Sir: In accordance with your request of August 3rd, 1914, that I appoint delegates to an extraordinary session of ine .souinern couon fongrrss iu mheld in Washington.
