The following mode of lying livonns in their dens as | radioed in Afghan- , istau, is given by Arthur Connolly, in ! his "Overland Journal," in the words of an Afghan chief, the ISliirkarce ftyud Daoud : " \Y hen you have tracked tho beast.to his don, you take a rope with two slipknots upon it in your light, hand, and wit h your left, holding a felt clonk before you, you go boldly but quietly in. The animal del s not know the nut tiro of the danger, and therefore retires to the baek of his don, but you may always teil whore his head is by the j glare of his eyes. You keep moving on gradually toward him on your knees, and when you are within distanee, throw tho elonk over his head, close with him and take earo he dose not free himself. The beast is so frightened that he cowers hack, and though lie may bite 1 he felt., ho cannot turn his neck round to hurt you, so you quietly feel for his forelegs, slip I the knots over them, and then, with one strong pull, draw them tight up to the ba. k of bis neck, end tie them j there.

Tho English article is not, therefore, out of use, hut there is a perceptible increase in the favor in which handy and thoroughly excellent tools are held; and this is being encouraged by the growing facilities for manipulating steel, both shear and east.
