The neat has given us many instances
of young women whot.were experts
with the rifle, but it haa remained (or
ColoradV) to produce a huntress of big
gome who lias more than three score
years to her credit. Mrs. A. 0. Walli
h a n, snvs the ('hlcajro Chrouiele, who
lives in Koutt county, has passed! her
sixty-third year oil earth, but still
takes pleasure in the chase. She was
born in Milwaukee, byt St " early agv
went to the wilds of the west and a
lnrpe part of liVr life hus been spent in
the mountains nni by the streams of
the ceutVnr.ial state. Her husband is
B photographer Who makes a specialty
of reproducing the counterfeit, present
ments of wild animals. In lils lours in
search of specimens Mr. Wallihan hns
frequently been accompanied by his
wife. Advancing years seemed to add
to rather than diminish her pleasure In
the sports usually monopolized by men
and Hfae hns accomplished many feats
which few women would enre to under
take. She has ridden horseback thou
sand! of miles through the wildest sort
of country and1 only lust fall mads a
trip of 3D!) miles to rench her home
after nn eMciiletl) Journey. For 11
years Mr. and Mrs. Wallihan traveled
In this fashion through the mountains.
During the last year, Mrs. Wallihan
writes, her health has not been pood
and so she has been far leswactive than
formerly,
Mr. Wallihan has recently taken pic
tures of 180 specimens of Western game
animals, m:ny of which were shot, by
his wife, and they will be placed on ex
hibition in the department of forestry
and fisheries at Paris this year.

To one unaccustomed to tropical con

Kican home would at first sight seem
MSger, but it is tptite ample, says
Harper's Baiar, A short resilience will
demonstrate that nearly Si 0 years of
experience with the unpleasant fea
tures of life in the West Indies have
beeu crowned by a eirviva! of the fit
test in furnishing as in other matters.
Austrian bent-wood furniture and
willow WSXS constitute the main equip

Upholstered furniture is unknown and
undesired. little or no attempt being
made at decoration, except in the mat

work is the chief delight of the Porto

but here and there a paint ing of merit

brood-spreading palm leaves, are used

llimp; your linen to dry, using two
lines comparatively close and parallel
for your table-cloths. (Also for
sheets.) Throw one selvage side of
your table cloth over one line (toward
the other), allowing it to hang down
about a quarter of a yard, and being
careful to pin it a short distance from
the ends. Take the opposite side of
your cloth and' throw it over the
other line, facing the first line, and
pin It in the same manlier. Tills, says
Emma Louise llauck Howe. In Wom

sort of bag. and will prevent to n con
siderable extent the wild blowing of
the table-cloth in windy weather.
Alter the table-linen is thoroughly

pare to dampen it. A whisk broom is
excellent for this purpose. Table

gloss that makes it so attractive,
should le dampened very consider
ably. Sprinkle the table-cloths very
fieely, being sure that the selvage
ends or hemstitched borders are thor
oughly damp. Koll up tightly, patting
the roll frequently) to spread the
dampness, The napkins und dollies
should be arranged alternately one
upon the other first a napkin dry
from the line, then one) which bus
been wrung out in warm water, then
a dry napkin, and following it an
other wrung out in hot water, and so
oue. Then roll tightly together.
The Germ of Mail Milliner.
"Independence is a trait I like in
Americans," said a girl near me the
other day. "To think that '1 am us
good as every one else' puts a strain
of confidence into me." "That, same
reflection: 'I am as good as every one
else,' is at the bottom of a great deal
of our proverbial bad manners," was
the reply. "Would it not be better to
think 'every one else is as good as I
am?' " It certainly 1h a commendable
trait to bo self-reliant so fur as mate
rial affairs are concerned, but there Is
an equality of worth to be recognized
in- others which is above the obliga
tions to self.--Adn C. Sweet, In Wom

Blood poisoning frequently occurs
In cases of wounds from tile teeth or
claws of animals, earpeclally those that
feed wholly or In part on putrid flesh,
and it Is ensy to understand that. In
the cases of such species as eat only
game of their own killing, there must
be traces of their feasts, in the shape
of shreds of animal matter, left ad
hering to their claws and teeth to
decay and become poisonous In time.
It 1h for this reason that few men
who have been "mauled" as- the Eng
lish express it by lions or tigers ever
recover from their injuries. Arguing
along the same lines, il is possible
that the number of deaths on record
from the bite of the western skunk,
or "hydrophobia cat," may be trnce-
nble to blood poisoning rather than
the rubies. The skunk seems to have
a mania for biting people, but In this
respect he is not unique. The Com
mon house rat where allowed to be
come overbold from their numbers,
frequently nibbles at the fingers, eurs
or toes of sleepers in dork rooms. But
rats are mot wholly carnivorous by na
ture and In consequence there is less
danger In their bites. The eldest son
of ftir Pryse Pryse a fox-hunting
baronet of Cardiganshire, England
died recently from blood poisoning,
superincVuocd by the bite of u captive
fos.

began to annoy her with his rude

With the cane he touched the negTo

"Dont do that," he remarked, in a
quiet hot Arm tone, and the negro
glared angrily at him. A moment
later the annoying attentions were re
sumed. Onos again Chanler touched
the negro with his cane.
Don't do that," he remarked. "I
really do not like it"
"And who the devil are your" said
the colored man, angrily.
Chanler laid his cane on the ehalr.
Then ha arose, seized the negro by the
