Then the long column bent gradually Moue direction. Our speed increased to forty mllea, and the car began to gain, for the antelopes were running almost across our course. They were about two hundred yards -away when Coltman shut off the gas and jammed on both brakes, but be- fore the car had stopped they had gained another hundred yards. I leap- ed over a pile of bedding and came Into aetion with the ,high-power rifle AA soon as my feet were on the ground. Coltuutu's rifle was already spitting fire from the front seat, and at his second shot an antelope dropped like lead. My first two bullets struck the dirt far behind the resrmrst animal, but the third caught a full-grown fe- male In the side, and s'heplunged for- ward into the grass, I realized, now what Coltman had meant wheu he said that the antelopes had not begun to run. Al the first shot every animal in the herd seemed to flatten itself. They did not run— they dew across the ground; and their legs shoaled only as a blur. The one I killed was four hundred yards away, and I had aimed four feet ahead when I pulled the trigger. • They could not have been travelling at less than fifty- five or sixty tulles an hour, for they were running Ina, semicircle round the ear, while we were moving at forty miles an hour in a straight line. Roly's Avenger. Every now anal then the sagacity of a certain dog seems to prove that In- telligent reasoning rather than mere instinct accounts for his actions. A ease In point is told by a traveller who lately returned from abroad. While he was in England he was the guest of a Country gentleman who took great pride in the good-tempered relation's that existed In one of his kennels of pedigreed doge. With -de- light he would smile out two favorites of his, Rory, a noble mastiff, and Rely, a little thoroughbred Scotch terrier, which were always the beat of friends. One day the visitor nal his host `scatted to drive to a nelehboriny °aun- ty. Shortly after they had arrived at the Int where they were going to pass the night they heard the sharp yelp- ing of a small dog mingled with tho savage growls of the innkeeper's big mongrel. The stable boy said that a strange little Scotch terrier had drift- ed in from no one know whore, that the mongrel had bitten hint, and that the terrier had run off. Front the description of the dog the Euglfshmatt was convinced that the stranger was holy. The little fellow had probably trailed them all the way, shrewdly keeping out of sight until they reached their destination. to vain the Englishman called and search- ed the shrubbery; Roly could not be found. It was past midnight, and the guests at the inn had retired, when suddenly there was a loud commotion In the gable yard. Awakened, the -English- mai, and his guest followed the inn- keeper to the scene, and there they 80.11 the big mongrel go sown to de- feat before a huge nuutetllf, white a lit- tle Scotcb terrier dented round ex- citedly. It was hely and his friend Rory, the mastiff, who hal come to take the part of his little comrade. The terrier had obviously journeyed straight !tome and with animal sagacity enlisted the sym- pathy of his strong ally, the mastiff, which speedily returned with him to the scene of his trouble And undertook to avenge his wrongs.

If there are such diseases about, you may be the next vlethn— you are probably just as liable to s"catch" something as your neighbor. It is therefore in your interest to see that your neighbor and family, as well as yourself and family, are not ex- posed to any form. of outbreak if possible, and that. everybody is in good health to, resist or throw, off such an outbreak onee it does occur. Listen to this: Do you know that 60,000 babies died in Ontario last year before reach- ing one year of age, and that a large number of .these deaths ceubd have been prevented if these infants and their' mothers had been given proper care and attention? Do you know that thousands of lives are lost yearly in this province because 'communicable diseases are not reported to the Medi- cal Officers df Health in time to have quarantine and -preventive pleasures taken to stamp out the outbreaks. Do you know that although breast feeding is by far the .best method of bringing up a baby, less than fifty per cent, of babies throughout the province are fed for the first nine months at their mothers' breast. Do you know that there are thou- sands of young children growing up with physical defects of various kinds not beteg' corrected—in "feet without any ,medicine 00 nursing :supervision whatever? Do you know that thousands of peo- ple are suffering from venereal dis- eases with the hospital for incurables or the insane asylum their only goal if effective treatment is not started in tine? - Do you know that large numbers of men and woolen engaged in industry are being ruined in health and receive bodily ,injuries through lack of fresh air, sanitation and protection from ac- cidents.

Live as 'much as possible out of doors, • Sleep' in well -ventilated bedrooms. Drink plenty of fresh water daily. Eat plain, subeltlrltiab foods and avoid excesses of all kinds. - Keep your bowels regular. Take daily exercise. Have your teeth examined by a den- tist at least twice a year. ' 'To expectant mothers;—Keep Your- self under the constant supervision of a physician before your baby is born. Breast feed the baby up till nine. months, Have it examined for physical and mental defects, by a physician or at the baby clinic. Remember that you cannot expect a child to grow up without supervision by a qualified -examiner any more than you could expect a piece of machinery to run along indefinitely without be- ing examined for necessary repairs, Can you arrange to have the Pub- lic Health teachings put into effect in :your own home? If not, Why not, Please ask yourself this question. If there is any further information I can give you on these subjects, kind- ly send me a line. I shall be glad to help you.
