AddreBe Sales Department. The OLIVER VN the early annals of the colony I of South Australia It It recorded that when a party of explorers un JH der Flinders first landed on Kan garoo Island, about 16 miles from Adelaide, they found great numbers of kangaroos which, never haying seen man before, were so tame and unsophisticated that tbey simply stood about and waited to be knocked on the head, with the result that in a few hours SI wei]e killed, the small est of which weighed 69 pounds. A continuance of these primitive con ditions would be highly appreciated by the. "black fellow, " who, naturally, looks upon the kangarcp simply as an animated bundle of meals. The mere slaughter of animals for food, however, does not oonstltute sport, and your white settler of sporting proclivities Is better pleased with present-day conditions ? that Is to say, In roost districts of the common wealth, where the kangaroo Is Just provide the necessary excitement and uncertainty of the chase. * livery up-country station keeps a couple of speedy hounds, very like greyhounds In build, hut bigger and heavier. They are the regular kan garoo dogs, though used as ? stock dogs also. The modus operandi .of. ! kangaroo-hunting with dogs resembles oovrslng In some respects. The sportsman, mourtM eft a nag of metr tie, rides Into the open .plain, the dogs trotting at his horse's heels. Pres ently, above the tall kanga^o grass or among the sandal-wood bushes he sees the heads of kangaroo bobbing about, perhaps a "mob" of four or five. A sharp word to the dogs ' and they dart forward silently. But the quick ears and scent of the kangaroo warn them of approaching danger, and they scatter in all directions. It they get a good start and one hap pens to lag behind the others,' the two dogs may take after the one, in which case thf run Is likely to be short; but, as a rule eaqh dog selects particular victim and runs lt#to a standstill. Not a Coward. When a full-grown male kangaroo Is ruahed by a dog he will often make a bolt for It, as would a frightened doe; not because he Is a coward, but simply to avoid trouble, and as he bounds away he might be saying: I don't want to fight, ;BUt by Jingo if I do ??I've got the arms, I've got the hands. - ? I*va got the courage too. ... No self-respecting kangaroo, however, will allow himself to be piilled down while on the run; consequently, ? as soon as ft becomes evident that, in spite of his huge leap*, the dog is overhauling him, or 4t &? la headed off by another dog, he oomes to a halt' and prepares, to fight for his life like the gallant "old man** that he is. As a .matter of choice the fighting kangaroo, when he is "hailed up," likes to get his baok against a tree, but when overtaken in the open^ he Jnst makes the best of a bad job. At first sight one would think that even the biggest and strongest "old man" kangaroo had. not the ghost of a chance when it came to a tussle with a powerful animal such aa the regular kangaroo dog; and, as a mat ter of fact* when the said dog is an old hand at the business and up to all the tricks of the marsupial, the final result is a foregone conclusion. The kangaroo stands to fight with his forearms held forward, and his five fingered bands spread out ready to clutch, much in the same way as does a wrestler. The inexperienced dog, guided only by his natural instlnots, olrcles round the kangaroo and, when he thinks he sees an opening, files straight at hfcrthroat. But the wily quarry by a skilful movement wards of the threatening fangs and, at the aame time, imprisons the dog in a vice-like grip with bis forearms; then, bringing up one of his hind feet ? the middle toe of which is armed with a formidable toe-nail, strong and sharp like a pruning-knif e? ? he slits the ma fortunate dog open and the fight is ended. "foe well-trained $nd experienced kangaroo dog, however, well knows .Che peril of the kangaroo'* embrace and, watching hie opportunity, makes a audden spring. Seising one of the "old man's" forearms in. his powerful laws, with a cruel wrench he breaks the bone,; and not until he has dis abled the remaining arm does he at tempt to pull down his victim by the throat. With both forearms disabled, the unhappy kangaroo, no longer able to protect his moat vulnerable jpot, la speedily pulled down, and" his ?b*tw !>?? b* M or two dot*. ? when the kangaroo is once seized and held down by the throat, the end la In tight Makes Qood Soup. The white hunter generally Ukea the kangaroo akin aa a trophy, also the tall, of which excellent soups and ourrlee ar^ made, though some folks detect a Curious tang of musk about the delicacy. The Test of the carcass Is left for the black fellows, who are not over-fastidious in their eating.

I hardly know how I've ever manured to remain away from James til this lime, lteally. Jamee and I are a ridiculously devoted couple." A little self-conscious laugh rippled over the full face and gently shook her plump ahoulders. "I'm awfully djyj&pd eut upon Mr. Uaacom," she weiit on. "Indeed, he quite ma^ea a baby of me. It's really beautiful, Isn't It, how a great . strong man loves to pet the lit tle woman who belongs to hlmT" . , She glanced at Miss Winters, the only unmarried woman In the group, who, being thus appealed to, said: "Ye#, l suppose it Is beautiful." Her tontj was not one of conviction. "Dear me, Mrs. Uagcom, you should n't complain of your brief separation from Mr. Uascom," remarked the wom an with a little girl In her lap.

Indeed, his in telligence overshadows mine, and, to tety you the truth, he's a bit master* ful in his way now and then. But we women need some one to lean on. We realise that our husbands know .better than we do about many import taut matters, so we ought to defer to them. Don't you think so, Mlsk Win tersl" "I do," agreed Mrs. Collins, befort Miss Winters had come to frame an answer. "I say to Edward that he must decide everything for baby and me.; He's the captain of our little family craft; Dear me, Miss Winters, it must be hard for you sometimes not to have a man to assume respon* Biblllties. But, of course, girls ? un married women ? are quite independent nowadays," she added, with patroniz ing kindness. "Oh, I manage to rub along," return* cd Miss Winters, but she rose from her seat and strolled away. Although she knew herself, to be a busy and happy- woman, sh^ could not help f eel*, ing solitary In the presence of such en* thusiastlc wives. A - brisk tramp around the lake brought back her usual good spirits, and it was only with aonlld envy .that she saw, as she neared the hot<H> at dusk, one of her companions of an hopr or two earlier hurrying down the drlfeway to meet the village buss.

Waa this the devoted husband who was pining aifay in the city for the wife, of his bosom? Miss Winters asked herself this question with in* ward laughtef, Then she saw Mrs. Bascom striding down Ihe path with a red headed man following her as meekly as a pet lamb.
