Why and bow is tbe deer so pe

materially from all the horned cnltle
in its composition, growth, maturity
nnd decline? It presents all the phe
in nu na of animal ana vegetaoie
uiovth. It sprouts from tbe brain
without any prolongation of tbe
iron taT bones. It rieea and breaks
throogh the sinews and takes root
jon the bone, giowing the same as a
vegetable. It is nourished by and
secretes albumen npon the surface
Hii(J.Uisppse8 of tha fibrin the same
us nn animal.
It ia clothed with a skin and hairy
coat very different from those on the
rest of tbe body. This covering and
liair possess a property unknown in
other animal bodies thst of being a
stypic to stanob its own blood when
wounded. It carries marks of the
120 on the buck by potting ont an
xlra branch each year, which shows
u ndliliimsl power each year to
r.rotluco them And this power
does rot exist in the female. H i

Mr. Harrry G. t-elp, Supervisor of

of numerous inquiries relative to
tbe duties, qualifications and com
pensations of Census Enumerators
and below are given some of tbe
laws and instructions relating to
same :
The Census Act provides that the
Census of 1910 shall cover the follow
iDg subjects for enumerators, Fivat,
Population; and Heonnd, Agricul
ture, whloh will be .collected, wholly
by enumerators under i tht sopor,
vision of tbe Supervisor, all statis
tics to be collected on specially pre-,
pared schedules.
Tbe enumeration of the above
subjects shall commence on tbe 15th
day of April. 1910 and each enumer
ator is required to complete tbe
work in his distriot within thirty
days, and in oitles, towns, Villages
or boroughs which bail 6000 popnla
tinn or more nnder the Census of
1900, the work must be completed
within two weeks. Tbe Supervisor
is to designate U the Director suitn-
IiIh persons as enumerntors, nnd.
with tho consent to e.nploy samp,
one or more for ench snhdivisioii
Each enumerator will nave a cor-
tain district to work, which riisf r lot
will be clearly and fully defined so
! iiat one enumerator cannot possibly
s ouro dato from nnothcr's district.
Tho law requires that the pop-ihi-tion
of incorporated bnrourrlo--,
villages, towns unrl cities shall In
leturued separately from that i.f ihe
territory in which same may he lo
cated In moat cases tho euiinieni
tion district can bo ao.arranged that
the entire area of an incorLiear id
place .will constitute 0119 or more
enumeration districts, no 0119 of
whioh tncliides'nny or l-icorporated
territory. Iu other cases, however, i ln enumeration distri. Is where! w H VaI)aIoke of L,yton this license, giving his name and ad
i, may be necessary for nn emimera- ' 1'opnhition is largely of souie par l(i j ,h ' gt week Visiting at Port-' ,lriw l,al1 oliligttl to show

when it shall be tbe duty of the
enumerator to dearly and plainly
distinguish and separate, npon the
population schedules,- the inhabit
ants of suoh borough, village, town
of city from the inhabitants of the'
territory not included therein.
;The success and value of the cen
sus as a whole is absolutely depend
ent upon tbe thoroughness, accuracy
and promptness with which the
enumerators perform their duties.
;In order to determine the fitness

filling ont of a sample or test ached

The applicant should live In tbe
district which he is to canvass and

The morning light is breaking
Beyond in eastern skies,
The lark ia gayly singing
Greeting early sunrise,
The flowers smile their welcome
Unto the morning dawn,
The tree tops nod and rustle
At the advance of morn.
The black night is forgMlen,
The diamond dew drops shine
On every blade and blossom
Sprinkled by tho "Hand Divine."
Nature all is glowing,
Sparkling, radiant, and bright,
Refreshing are tho breezes
That wave so soft and light.
The tripping little rivulet
As o'er the pebbles flow,
Reflect the golden ennbeama
By tbe early glow
Of morning, and rejoicing,
It morry speeds along
To join fhti other streamlets
.Singing nature's song.
Then hail each bltssed sunriee
That wo inny live to sea.
Wo know not if mi it her day
Will dawn fo you or me ;
Many a flower t!n t in (till bloom
Thought to live the day.

Ai d then was ra.-t away.

! A Gun License Law.
It is quite probable that a gun It-vn-o
in-,-,- will be one of the nets pro-P"-
in the next h'L'i.-latiir.i in this
Sbiti lis chief feature will lie to
provide that every person carrying a
:;tin m this Mile must tuv a small
i llcerse fee. of nerhain one dollar, pt. '
cept to hunt on his own land for the
nnviietre of so doim. nn.l that irhen
hunting he must carry with him .
with the land on which enters. It
will absolutely prohibit carrying fire
,irma by mitntttir.ili,ed foreigners
I mil hoys under sixteen years of age.
I ir, will also provide that no one may
-. enter on the premises of another
without the written permission of the
iattcr. Many advantages it is pre-
timed will securo to farmers' and
land ownprs from such a law. They"
under it could ascertain the name ,
and address nf the trespasser and''
could lay hands on him and detain 'of 1
irrtat him without warrant, with m '
! jientilty of say $25, part of which
would go to the land owner.' Many
firiners now post their lands because
of the troubles they experience With
irresponsible gunners. With thl
law a men who conducts himself
wnetner mey recure any gams or
not. They are gentlemen who
wonld not steal the farmer's crops or
-hickens and it might be profitable
ti r farmers to come in olose touch
a ith them. They come out to spend
niomy fur the sake of entertainment,
provisions and team hire and they
of i ii di i.i re to buy and cirry back
in'-'.i country products as real delica
i'ici. Dy liecjming acquainted with
i I'.-..- mr-Ii men the farmer might
