, MR. ROOSEVELT'S ESCAPE. In Scribuer'sr Magazine ex-Presi dent Roosevelt, continuing his series on "African Game Trails," tells of "Elephant Hunting on Mouut Kenia. The African elephant has never been trained as the. Indian elephant, there fore neither the natives nor the hunt ers have the kind of intimacy and knowledge which domestication gives, moreover, hunting in the forest is surrounded with danger and excite ment, which Mr. Roosevelt has gra phically portrayed in this article. The ex-President writes: "No other animal, not the lion him self, is so constant a theme of talk and a subject of such unflagging in terest round the camp fires of African hunters and in the native villages of the African wilderness as the ele phant. Indeed the elephant has al ways profoundly impressed the imag ination of mankind. It. is, not only to hunters, but to naturalists, and to all people who possess, any curiosity about wild creatures and the wild life of nature, the most interesting of all animals. Its huge bulk, its singular form, the value of its ivory, its great intelligence in which it is matched, if at all, only by the highest apes, .and possibly by one or two of the highest carnivores ami its varied habits, all combine to give it an interest such as attaches to no other living , creature below the rank of man. In line of descent and in physicaj formation it stands by itself, wholly apart from all the orner great land beasts, and dif fering from them even more widely j tharr they differ from one another.! flic two existing species the Afri can, which is the larger and finer ani mi.i, and the Asiatic differ from one another as much as the do from the mammoth and similar extinct forms which were the contemporaries of early man in Europe and North Amer ica. The carvings of our palaeolithic forefathers, etched on bone by cavern dwellers, from whom we are sun dered by nges which stretch into an immemorial past, show that in their lives the hairy elephant of the north played the same part that his remote collateral descendant now plays in the lives of the savages who dwell under a vertical sun beside the tepid waters of the Nile and the Congo." That Mr. Roosevelt had a narrow escape from death while after his big quarry is shown in his account of a flank attack by a companion of an elephant he had brought down. He says: , "At last we came in sight of the wighty game. The trail took' a twist to one side, and there, thirty yards in front of us, we made out part of the gray and massive head of an elephant resting his tusks on the branches of a young tree elephants hardly ever feed at noon. A couple of minutes passed "before, by cautious scrutiny, Ave were able to tell whether the ani mal we could see was & cow or a bull, anjj whether, if a bull, it carried heavy enough horns. Then we saw that it was a big bull with good ivory. ' It turned its head in my di rection and I saw its eye; and I fired n'little to one side of the eye at a spot which I thought would lead to the brain. I struck exactly where I 'aimed, but the head of an elephant is enormous and the brain small,' and the bullet missed it. However, the shock momentarily stunned the beast. He stumbled forward, half falling, and as he recovered I fired with the second barrel, again aiming for the brain. This time the bullet sped true, and as I lowered the rifle from my shoulder I saw the great lord" of the forest comecrashingtothe ground. "But at that very instant, before there was a moment's time in which toreload, the thick bushes parted im mediately on my left front and 'through them surged the vast bulk of a charging bull elephant, the matted mass of tough creepers snapping like packthread before his rush.11 He was so close that he could have touched me with his trunk. I leaped to one side and dodged behind a tree trunk, opening the rifle, throwing out the empty shells and slipping in two car tridges. Meanwhile Cunfnghame fired right and left, at the same time throwing himself into the bushes on the other side. Both his bullets went home and the bull stopped short in his charge, wheeled and immediately disappeared in the thick cover. We ran forward, but the forest had closed over his wake. We h'eard him trum pet shrilly, and then all sounds ceased." THE HAIRDRESSER WHO DIED TWICE. There are many puzzling conun drums in French history, but perhaps the most perplexing of all, though it has to do with a comparatively min or personage, is that surrounding the mystery of the hairdresser of Marie Antoinette. It is not a common oc currence for a person to clie twice, a circumstance which has occurred in the case of this hairdresser, who was known as Joan Antie, alias Leo nard. This Antie", or Leonard, was a Gas ron, born in 173S, who acquired a reputation in Paris by reason cf his great ingenuity in building the elab orate coiffures o' the time cf Louis XVI. In 1791 he was lodged at the TuilerSis as valet de chambre of the Queen. When Marie Antoinette and the real family made their abortive at- tempt to f.ce from France, Leonard j was sent ahead as a scout. He was seized, brought back to the French capital and condemned to be execut ed as a traitor to the State. So far as anyone then kne.w he was duly decapitated, his death being properly recorded in the register pro vided for the purpose. Investigation has, however, elicited the interesting fact that the ex-hairdresser was very much alive in Russia in the year 1S14, and to complicate matters the Paris register showed his second death certificate under the year 1S20. The question naturally arises, just how did Leonard manage to evade the penalty thnt every one had no doubt he had suffered? A great many guesses have been ventured and the following explanation, of fered by one puzzled historian, seems of all of them the most reasonable. ' One day. while a group of con demned were awaiting their turn for execution, the guillotine broke down and had to be repaired. A number of victims had been executed; ten or a dozen were obliged to stand waiting till the repairs had been accom plished. Now it appears that one individual, the twentieth on the list, whose hands were, as was the custom, bound behind him, grew faint at the delay. leaned against the line of officers that separated the prisoners from the mob of spectators. Suddenly a gay opened behind the man, almost un consciously he slipped through ard the line clo?cd once more. A bystand er reached ever ar.d placed a hat c: the man's bare hraj and the people crowded about as if to hide him. A short time thereafter a man with his hands behind him was seen in the Champs EJysees walking with the air of cne out for a quiet stroll. This man was said to have spent the next nignt m a ditch and to nave made his way to Russia subsequently. If this person, saved by a fortunate accident or by collusion, was Leonard, the story explains the mystery of the two death certificates. Harper's Weekly. FINDING A WOLF DEN. In April we had a storm which gave us about five inches of snow, and-as this was the time for wolves and cbyotes to den, a friend and I de cided to take a iook about and see if we could find one. In this part of the State gray wolves are quite numerous, and as they do much damage to the ranchman, a bounty has been placed on them. The State bounty is S3, and the bounty of fered by the ranchmen ?10 on' pups, and $15 on old wolves. The total is thus $20 on grown wolves and $15 on pups. The land about our ranch being rough mountain ranges, wolves breed there quite often. The breeding sea son is usually from the 1st of April till the 1st of May. One morning we started out, and took along with us cne-of a gc.o.i pack of foxhounds which we own. We had gone about seven miles from the ranch when we struck the trail of a very largewo!f, and back trailing it for a short distance I found where the wolf had lain down. As I have spent about ten years in this business, this told me that I was going the wrong way. I started in the other direction, and as the going vwas exceedingly rough, I tied my horse to a tree and went forward on foot. I had trailed the wolf about a mile when, suddenly, the dog began to growl and show signs of uneasiness, and at this I began to look closely for the wolf, and suddenly I came upon the den. It was situated in a rough pile of rocks, facing the south. It was now about noon. I stood there quietly, for a moment, and then to my great surprise the old wolf came out of the den. She had not seen me yet, and not being over fifteen feet from her I killed her with a shot from a .30 United States army rifle. The male, hearing the shot, jumped up about fifty yards away, but the ground was so rough that I got only one shot at him. We worked all the afternoon at the den. but did not get to the pups, but the next day we went back and got five young ones, making ; a bounty for us of $30. I have kept one for a pet. J. A. S., Binford, Wyo., in Forest, and Stream. WHALE TOWED THE DORY. Captain William O'Dcnnell, of the fishing schooner Lucy D. Winsor, was hauling trawls several miles off Race Point when his dory began to act strangely. The boat stood on its stern, then tilted by the head and started out to sea at tremendous speed. The captain was experiencing a new sensation and it made him a trine anxious because there was no, one clue to the mysterious power that was rapidly taking hini off soundings. With added moment u ill the clory forged away from' the schooner, and its occupant, who admits he was scared, cast off the trawl and crouched in the stern of the boat so the bow would not be dragged under water. Rut the trawl caught, and two minutes after the dory was flying through the waves at such a rate that water began to slop over the sides. The dory was rapidly leaving the schooner, when the tension on the Imp relaxed and the dory presently stopped. The captain hauled in the j trawl and found the hooks stripped . of fish as a result of the speed at which they had been -xlragged through I the water. Near the end of the gear, I however, was found the head of a big J cod, its body having been Litten off. ! That is what makes Captain O'Don- i-nell believe a whale gave him the ter- rifying ride out Cope Cod way. He thinks the whale nipped the cod and some of the keen hcoks scratched its head and sides and dug into the skin till tr.e whaie naa iov.ee! trie dory a ' Hes way sunward. Boston. Herald.

HOW TO LOSE Oft MAKE WEIGHT. M a Rule Fat Is a Sign of Health, Says Dr. White in Harvard Medical Course. Ir. Franklin W. White, of the Har rard Medical School lectured on a popular topic in the Sunday afternoon :ourse at the school, 'for he told fat people how to lose weight and thin people how to put on flesh. Consequent ly the audience room was well filled, M1U UUU1 111(3 UUUlUtl jl sural uuu iftui people it was apparent that there was great personal Interest in the dis burse. In the course of his talk Dr. White said: "The reason for the gain in weight in the vast majority of healthy people is simply that they eat more than Is needed fcr the daily work cf the body. Almost all stout persons can reduce' their weight and keep it clown it will, if they will take the trouble to do so by finding out just what they need for their daily work and then keeping within these bounds. This process requires some care and pa tience and self-control, and in addition i good deal, of knowledge cf the val les of different foods. Stout people 5ive up one food and replace it by mother equally nutritious. They rely n r, exercise which brings with it even better appetite, ' and ihey eat more. An ' addition af one pat ofNyrtter a day will give an., lucre as.) twelve pounds sveigat in a year..yUie addition of a single 'slice of meat o? cf 1 1-2 slices af bread a day will do the same with good digestion and no increase of ex sreise. , "As a rule fat is a sign of health and aot dise&oe. Very few sick people gain weight. It means a good appetite and good digestion. It is safef to be ten sounds over weight than ten pounds Under. There are two ways of reduc ing surplus weight eating less food Dr taking more exercise. In my ex perience the method of eating less is far more effective 'and usually much ;asier. The reasonable way is to combine the two. v "It is not necessary fcr stout people to go to a sanatorium and take a 'cure In obesity. It is much better and more convenient to lose weight gradually. The, result can be accomplished riot necessarily by eating less cf the foods usually taken, but by making a new choice, taking less of strong foods, md more of medium weaker cnes. "While recommending moderate ex ercise, we must regard violent exercise Eor the purpose of reducing weight is wasteful of time and energy and sometimes dangerous. These who lose weight by such a course cf treat ment., usually gain again rapidly af ter, they return to ordinary habits. "Massage has little or no erfect on weight. Hot air cr vapor baths reduce weight only by drying out the body, reducing the water by active perspir ation. Mineral waters and laxatives are quite effective, for it is possible to hurry the food so rapidly through the digestive canal that much of it will not be absorbed, but thi3 is clumsy and inconvenient "Thyroid extract, which has been much used as a short cut to a grace ful figure, is a powerful drug, which has so many disadvantages that dec- j-it-o aro iiolnor it TiPQts anrl less. It. fro quently produces a loss in the muscles or body framework. It is, too entirely unnecessary, since no one loses weight after taking it who could not lose with diet and exercise. "Patent medicines for the purpose are legion. Most of tnem are mntf frauds composed of the simplest and cheapest stuff. "There is much less to say about gaining weight. It is far harder for the slender person to gala weight than for the stout person to lose it, and it is frequency almost impossible to cause a permanent gain in weight. Under weight may be due to wasteful digestion, to earing too little or too weak foods, or to using up too much food supply in work or worry. ; All these causes must be treated ; we need more than increased food to cause in crease of weight.'
