they attack more gentle game As a
rule, you know, leopards love to kin
dogs. It Is their favorite m?-:it. Hut
a buncli of these African w!lu dogs
kill leopards and even i'. 'tis. They
kill anything they can get.
"The odd thing Is that they seldom
at more than a small part of the victim's
body and never touch his head
at all. More often they kill from
wanton mischief, and never bother t"
Mt a mouthful of their kill. They
turlvu all the game out of any region
they choose for u hunting ground. t"0

"My friend described to me the way
pack of them does when it starts
la pursuit of a big antelope or < dbei
faat-runnlng prey. He says one doc
will run at top speed, as close behind
the prey as he can keep up. The rest
spread out In a sort of fan-formation:
nd they follow this lending dog at an
easier pare, about a quarter of a m!l?
r more behind.
"Then. If the prey tries to turn
barply to one side or the other, the:
?ean shift their own direction and follow
so as to intercept him. If he
beeps straight on, the flrst dog getstired
<y winded, after a while, from
Ms headlong pace. Then he drops
back to the rest of the pack.
"At once one of the other dog*
dashes ahead and rakes the leader'Place,
clone behind the prey. In tbli
fashion, by relays, they run until they
tire out the deer or other animal they
are chasing and at last one of then
la able to co;ne alongside and attach
Mm.
"If one of the wild dogs is hurt in
the attack on tl.?- prey, all the reel
turn on She mounded ?'og in a flasti

Congress
No. 2
Statistics have proven that only
in e-half of one per cent of the
peeches made in Congress are lisened
to. A great many Congressnen
speak IN, hut not TO. impress.
But even* speech is published
n the record. They send the records
back home to show "What
hcv told 'em up there in Washingon."
Now the people back home
hink Congress heard their "Lorn"'
ell 'em this.
Now, here is my scheme to stop
speech making. A Bill reading as
follows: "Congressional Record
nust not only contain speech, but
lumber of members, and names
vho listened to speech, and si-ky."
For instance: "Congressman Post
Hole arose to a point of information
and spoke at length on. Is
Locarno a town, or is it a Treaty ?'
Length of speech, without waiting
for applause, four hours, thirty-six
minutes; attendance, Gout (Rep.
V. Y.) : 'Unable to get out.' Sixtyforty
(Dcm. N. J.): 'Case of reciprocity,
he listened to mine.' Lowbrow
(Rep. Mass.) : '1 was asleep,
even the good shakers haven't
woke me up.'"
Now I claim that will stop some
speech making. The minute it get*
back home that "Lemmie" is talking
to himself up there, "Lemmie
will stop talking.
You know why they won't listen
to anybody up there? They have
gone cut to smoke, that's why. and
you know why they've gone out to
smoke? Whv, "Bull" Durham, of
course. IT'S BETTER THAN
ANY SPEECH EVER MADE.
P.S. There will be another piece
in this paper soon. Lock for it.
