tlfcAGING A COUGAR.

t't|, T% -S it was a clear, pleasant day late in the fall. "Jnht right for a fine time in the woods," thought Will Hagar, as he vigorously handled the ax on the woodpile back of the comfortable farmhouse which was his home. It was the early morning, and the calm beauty of the scene promised an ideal day. He would take his gun and wander through the deep woods that stretched for miles a short distance to th# north of the house. He took his gun with bim as a matter of course, though it was not his main object to hunt—that would come in as aside issue—for though be was a good shot and fairly successful with both rod and gun these sports were by .no m^ns paramount with him.

fr*

"f.p

Will was essentially a student and a naturalist, and to wander for days through Sthe woods, examining and peering into everything new and strange, was his greatest delight. Therefore his disappointment can easily be imagined when he was forced at 5 length to acknowledge to himself that it would be impossible for bim to attend the winter school at the Corners, four miles i# from his home. All summer he had hoped to be able to save sufficient money for the necessary books and better clothing to enable him to attend, but thus far with only poor success. There were few opportunities to earn money in that neighborhood, and he felt that he could not ask any assistance of his father, for, owing to several umfortunate events following close after each other, Mr. Hagar was just then in straits ened circumstances.

Will was thinking of this as he walked rapidly along. "I'll just have to miss the term, that's all. I can keep my eyes open and learn all I can by myself, and maybe I shall have an opportunity next winter," he mused as he plunged into the stretch of yroods nearest his home.

Once among the trees his naturalistio instinct swallowed up all other thoughts, ss and he strolled on deeper and deeper into the woods, completely absorbed in his surroundings. About midday he reached a -a region where he had rarely been before, and after another half hour's walk which took him still deeper into the unbroken forest he came across a deserted cabin.

Out of curiosity he entered it. Though it J' I it had been erected some time before, when Km some lumbermen had been cutting in the vicinity, it had been so well constructed fei that it was still in fair condition. There was a heavy door still hanging on one v* binge. As it threatened to shut him in, 's: Will propped it open with a stick.

The interior, as revealed by the open door, ft was rather uninviting, with its rough walls and nails driven in here and there. On one

side some wooden bunkB were badly in need of regf*-\ The hard ground floor was cov(||f|!cred *fcjh oans, empty rifle and revolver cartrlWtys and a large miscellaneous collection of the castofT belongings of the former 'tenants. In one corner a roughly con

structed ladder led up to what had evidentsly been a sort of loft. Time had rotted the floor, the greater part of it lying on the ground below. The ladder rested on a heavy beam running close across one cortier of tbe structure and a short distance beslow the roof. This beam had evidently been the nucleus of the loft and was now the only sign of it time had left remaining.

The sky looked through the roof in several places, but the strong log walls would withstand many a storm yet. A short inspection served to satisfy Will's curiosity, and coming out he struck off in the direction of his home, intending to slowly proceed thither.

A snort distance from the cabin he glanced upward, attracted by a large bird slowly (lying among the trees. As he followed its movements with his eye, suddenly his glance encountered something which aoemed to freeze the blood in his veins.

There in a tree, a short distance in advance, lay stretched along a limb a large auimal watching him intently. Will stopped short. Heat once reoogniaed the beast as a cougar, and an extraordinarily large one it appeared to his startled eyes. It was far better to avoid an encounter if possible, he knew, but there lay the difficulty. From •s the creature's position on the limb, with his tail switching from sido to side, his sharp claws sinking deep into the bark of the tree, and his gleaming eyes fixed steadily on the boy, he was evidently on the point of making a spring.

Alone in the forest, facing such an enemy, was enough to make an experienced hunter quail. Will stood stock still. He seemed unable to move, though he well knew that only prompt action could by any possibility save him. To risk a shot in the cougar's present position would be .almost useless, but as nothing else seemed left him he determined to fire. Should he fail to mortally wound his antagonist he would be practically defenseless, for before he could reload the animal would be upon him, and the hunting knife, which wa»his only belt weapon, would be but a poor defense.

So as nothing else was apparently to be doue WU1 determined to trust to a lucky shot and raised his rifle, but before he ©ould aim it the cougar, with an unearthly screcch, bounded from his perch and landed within a few feet of him.

Not a moment was now to be lost, and •with a palpitating heart the boy took a hasty aim and fired. Then throwing down his gun he turned sharply and dashed in the direction from which he had come. He knew better than to wait to see the effect of his shot, and it was well that he did so, for scarcely bad he gone a rod when he became aware that he had not succeeded in killing the cougar.

For a few momenta aft&r ne had firm all was quiet, and glancing back Will hoped to see the beast in his death throes, but no suoh welcome sight met his eyes. What he did see and what instantly sent him off again at his best speed was the cougar slowly rising and biting viciously at a wounded forepaw from which a stream of blood flowed. Then he uttered several frightful screams and came bounding alter him In ^^uP^l^ked no longer, he had seen

But where ho was running to or

what he hoped to gain by running he aoarcely knew. He waa miles away from the nearest house, and not likely to meet any one to whom be could look for aid. To climb a tree would be useless, and yet ha fr«ni grave csoit to fear that, unless the chase was speedily brought to a termination, he would be overhauled by his pur

suer, who came on, li & p.u_to be sure, greatly hindered by his wonnded paw, but still at such apace as threatened to rapidly cover the intervening space^between the tWO.

Will was becoming tired and winded but, with a fixed idea of keeping himself out of the clutches of the cougar as long as possible, he ran on. In a minute more the cabin which he bad quitted a short time before came in view. Perhaps it would offer a shelter, and exerting his remaining strength the boy dashed inside, the cougar at his very bee! ". There was no time to shut the door aj. keep him out, as he had hoped to do, and with a despairing cry Will sank to the floor.

Just then he happened to see the dilapidated ladder standing in the corner. With a last effort he leaped to it, and mounting hastily drew himself up on the crossbeam against which it rested—not a second too soon either, for as be reached the top of the ladder the cougar sprang through the open .door, and with a single bound landed directly underneath him. Exerting all his strength, Will pushed heavily against the ladder, and with a sigh of satisfaction saw it fall to the ground. That at least would offer no easy path for bis pursuer.

The fall of the ladder somewhat disconcerted the cougar, and he sprang back, landing against and breaking the sti' which Will had on first entering the cabin stuck in the ground to keep the heavy door open.

The door, no longer held open, swung slowly shut, and the cabin was in almost total darkness, relieved only by the light streaming through several holes in the dilapidated roof.

The cougar, nothing daunted, crept slowly back from the door, his tail switching, and his eyes, shining like two live coals in the semidarkness, fixed steadily on the boy, who was clinging with all his might to his scanty support. Suddenly the animal launched his body forward and upward directly at Will, who shrank as close as possible to the wall at his back and held bis breath. A moment and the suspense was over, for the animal, with a low growl, dropped back to the floor, having failed to reach his victim. Again and again be Bprang upward, but never succeeded in quite gaining a Joothold. Once indeed his forepaws did strike the beam on which Will lay, and the boy's heart sank within him but, owing to the wound which Will had succeeded in inflicting, the animal was unable to retain his hold again and dropped back.

Finally his vindictive hate seemed to cool with the realization that he could not reach the boy, and he began scratching at •the door with the evident purpose of seeking the fresh outer air, but the heavy door resisted all his attempts and remained shut.

After a few moments he retired to a corner, and stretching out began licking MB wounded paw, meanwhile keeping a watchful eye on Will Und growling loudly if he made the least movement.

As may be imagined, .the lad was getting very uncomfortable in his cramped position. Less than two feet above him was the roof, and with the rough walls forming the corner of the cabin so close as to barely admit of his changing his position at all his precarious refuge did not offer very inviting quarters.

The cougar, though he might have left the cabin at first, could he have opened the door, now seemed to have given up all thought of getting out, and from his corner but a few feet away glared fixedly at the boy. Occasionally, to relieve the monotony, he would creep slowly forward, and launching himself upward endeavor to reach the crossbeam, but owing to his wounded forepaw he always fell short of his mark.

After each fresh attempt Will breathed easier, for he noticed that, doubtless owing to the loss of blood and narrow confines of the cabin, the animal's leaps seemed to lose their power, and each time he fell further short. Nothing daunted apparently after a few minutes' rest he would again creep slowly forward and repeat the attempt.

Will was thus kept in a lively state of terror continually, for fear the cougar might, finally be able to reach him. The heavy log walls on either side offered no means of exit, and he had a sort of shrinking timidity about descending and making his way out through the door. Glancing up, he noticed by the small bit of sky visible through several holes in the roof that it was getting late in the afternoon.

A thought struck him. Perhaps he could get out on the roof. He turned on his back and looked directly above him. The wood seemed soft and rotten in many places, and with his knife, which fortunately he still had in his belt, he determined to at least make the effort. The roof here was less than two feet above him.

Cautiously raising himself to a half sitting position, he began to cut a hole sufficiently large to admit of his squeezing through. With one hand he plied the knife, while with the other he clung tenaciously to his slender support. He had to wrurk slowly and exert the greatest caution lest he lose bis balance and fall.

The cougar from below watched Will's movements with evident displeasure and growled continuously, occasionally trying to reach him by an upward bound. This disconcerted Will considerably, and once he almost dropped his knife.

After some time he succeeded in cutting a small hole through, sufficiently large to allow of his slipping his left hand through. With this more secure hold he could work to better advantage, and he piled his knife vigorously. After more hard work he had cut a jagged hole through the roof sufficiently large, he judged, to squeeze his body through. He had been materially aided by discovering a large, soft, rotted spot in the wood a little to one side of where he had first begun operations. He was thus able to cut enough of the roof away for his purpose in a comparatively short time.

Bestowing a parting glance on his enemy below, Will carefully drew himself through the hole and in a few moments was standing on the root The cougar saw him disappear with a mournful howl and a despairing effort to reach him, but the leap waa too Ugh for htm.

Glancing down at him, Will muttered, "Well, you're caged test enough, my flue fellow, and I'll have your skin for the scare and trouble you have given me."

Cautiously making his way over the shaky roof, Will let himself down at one corner and started to look for his rifle,which he picked up a few rods from the oabtn. Carefully loading it, the brave boy clambered back on the roof, and from that point of vantage bad no difficulty in potting a ballet through tbe cougar's heart.

When satisfied his enemy waa really dead, Will let himself down at tbe corner again and pushed open the door, where lay the oougar, stone dead.

Hastening home, he soon returned with his fatho*, with whose assistance tbe skin was easily removed, and this, with the money paid him by the county for ridding the place of such a dangerous animal, was amply sufficient to fit him out properly for his much longed for term at the country ooL—Heury Russell Moser in Yankee

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL, OCTOBER 28, 1893.

WOMAN ON Ttift i'ARM.

SHE SHOULD BE HER HUSBAND'S PARTNER IN BUSINESS--,

Hard Work Has Eaten Her Heart Oat, Willie Her Immortal Hope Etas Dwindled to One Great Yearning For Best—Some uf the Things "Woinen on Farms May Do.

jTlie most pathetic, sight on earth, not excepting a sick baby, is the knotted, bent back of the woman who has spent the best years of her life as the so called mistress of a farm. There is but one thing that matches it, and that is her face, large eyed, withered, rigid, dead she has borne her children, suffered her woman's hope and baptism of pain, and has done the work every day that would have broken down three men. When the farmhand came in from the field, he ruminated on the doorstep o* with his feet on the hearth. She had the dishes to wash, the childreu to put io bed, and then sat down with the family mending basket.

In the early days she had her ambitions for herself, and her children, and her husband, but hard work and that mortgage on the farm have eateii out her heart, and now, with a sort of hopeless, bovine patience, she looks on children grown up to just what she did not wish, while her immortal hope has dwindled to one great yearning for rest. Is there nothing better for the woman of the American farm? No remedy? There is. Let her begin her life not only as the farmer's wife, but as his partner in business.

There are money making interests on a farm which are forever undeveloped unless the woman makes them evoluts. But first and chief it is necessary, unless the farmer's wife will settle down to be only the head "girl" of the concern without a dollar of wages—working for her victuals and clothes—that she shall manage some cash producing business and be recognized as a producer. Such a position is imperar tive to prevent the whole investment of the farm being risked in one sided farming, and that the man's side, for, however wise his management, it represents only the masculine idea.

There are capabilities in a woman for organizing and utilizing money making opportunities on a farm that would otherwise go to waste. Her main obstacles are that she will not plan broadly enough, will not thoroughly acquaint herself with business details and will be too timid to assume financial responsibility in the face of the wet blanketing her propositions will get nine times out of ten.

But in every direction women have demonstrated their ability as farm producers. It is a well recognized fact that southern women planters are usually a success and often make plantations "pay" where the husband had succeeded only in increasing the mortgage and dying of discouragement. One instance will suffice.

A planter's wife was left with a Mississippi river plantation under $23,000 mortgage and a family of five children just ready for school and college. The two years' illness of her husband had given her a grasp of the business. After his death, when the commission merchant came up to "close her out," the improved condition of the place and the wisdom of her plans caused him to say, "I'll advance all the money you want this year." At the end of three years she had paid the mortgage, sent her sons and daughters to college, and her plantation was universally confessed to 8b the best improved one in the county. Not yery long after she married the young man whom she had placed in charge of a store she opened.

God alone can fathom the mysteries of a nature that conceived it needed a partner in such success. It only proves that "natur' will caper" in the face of any power of business or ballot, and that the family instincts of women reign "till death do us part," notwithstanding the fears of some timid men.

The dairy scientifically managed affords work for women's hands and brains. One young woman in Scotland became so proficient she was engaged to give a course of dairy instruction in Aberdeenshire, which was deemed to valuable she, was permanently retained in that district. Cheese and butter offer a large field. The culture of bees, silkworms, poultry, eggs, beef cattle, sheep and wool, and even horses, has been successfully manipulated by enterprising women. A woman near Los Angeles has made a wondrous success of arose farm, the product being attar of roses for the market.

Mrs. Henry Barroillhet, the widow of a San Francisco banker, who gave up his great fortune on the failure of his bank, went resolutely'to work to supply tbe San Francisco market with flowers. She now owns 140 acres of fine land—all in cultivation. Seven acres are in orchard. Five acres are in violets, with an increase of 15 more this autumn. Seven acres are in chrysanthemums, while roses, lilies and other flowers come in for.a big share of the acreage. Two thousand eucalyptus trees, 8,000 pines and sequoias and other trees are very profitable, the leaves and branches being used as evergreens In decoration.

The best testimonial to the beauty of her flowers and the favor with which they are regarded by San Francisco is the fact that about 8,000 chrysanthemums, 2,000 bunches of violets, 800 to 1,000 Duchesse de Brabant roses, to say nothing of other varieties, are daily shipped during their seasona Her specialty, however, is in violets, for which she receives $2.50 per dozen bunches. Chrysanthemums bring from 1 to 5 cento apiece, governed by sbce rather than color or beauty. This flower plantation is described as a perfect Eden, and the proprietress personally attends to every detail of irrigation, cultivation, gathering, packing and shipping. —Harriet B. Kells in Union Signal.

Promlncaous Handshaking.

A lady never extends her hand to a man whose acquaintance she is making. She may or may not shake bands with a lady who la introduced, but she must not give her hand to a strange man. A low bow is the elegant form of salutation. A cultivated woman will not shake hands with any man, no matter how long she is acquainted with Mm, tinlpsw she respects and admires him. A gentleman never extend* his hand to a lady first. To do So would be presumptuous and subject him to a snubbing. A man shows his breeding the way he eats his dinner a woman shows her breeding the yn& she receives people.—New York World.

Money Taken, Voice StiAod. A woman may vote as astockholder upon a railroad from one end of the country to the other, but if she sells her stock and buys house with the money she has no voice In the laying out of the road before her door, which her house is taxed to keep tsaAp^rfat^

WJhfn a Doctor to 111.

One side of a physician's character is seldom seen- by his patiehts. That is when the doctor becomes a patient, and in turn has to have another physician to attend him. This contingency never seems to occur to the layman.

The doctor is always in good physical condition when he makes his round of sick calls. He goes where-epidemics and contagious diseases of all sorts are rife, and if he ever succumbs to then^ his former patients are not apt to see him, so that to the casual observer he appears to bear a charmed life and to be beyond the reach of any harm, barring perhaps a railroad accident or the collapse of a government building. But this is not so. The physician is sick, not quite as often perhaps as the average citizen, who knows less of the mles of hygiene, but every doctor knows what it is to have had some of his fellow practitioners under his care.

Dr. W. A Hammond, in speaking of this phase of the doctor's life to a reporter yesterday, said: "Yes, the physician is subject to sickness as much as any other man. As a rule he makes a worse patient than a layman, principally, I suppose, froth the fact that he misses the moral support that is lent to the layman from his ignorance of the profession. For instance, if you give a layman a hypodermic injection of water and tell him it is morphine, he will go to sleep almost as quickly as though he had taken the drug into his system, while a physician would not take a dose in that way, and when he knew of the deception it would not have any effect on him. Then, too, there area gieat many other ways in which the physician can morally impress and aid his lay patients, but which fail when he comes to deal with another doctor, who says to himself, 'Oh, yes, I have been through all that myself and know just what it means.' "Do physicians as a rule attend themselves? Yes, I should say that they do, so far as they can, rather than call In another physician. And I don't know but what they do as well or better In that line than any one else could do for them. A doctor of course can understand his own symptoms better than he can describe them to another person, and unless it is a serious case he is likely to be able to treat them successfully. When, however, the case gets beyond his own handling, be calls in a fellow practitioner, and if he is wise puts himself completely under the other doctor's charge and does as he is told. Whether he does this gracefully or not depends entirely on the man, and I think that we have some of the best as well as the worst specimens of humanity in the medical profession. The really large minded men are pretty much the same in whatever state you find them, and the little contemptible fellows will be petulant and irritable when sick just as any other patients. "One thing that now sends a physician to another physician for treatment when he is ill more than anything else is the cutting down of the medical field into specialties, and a physician would be just as likely to have a specialist to attend himself as to have one for any other member of his family. "I, for'instance, if I had tbe neuralgia, would not thank anybody to prescribe for me, because it is a part of my business to know all about the nerves that have to do with that disease, but if I needed a nerve cut to' remedy the pain I would go to the best surgeon I could get and put myself in his hands. I have known physicians, however, to perform some of the minor operations onraiemselves where there was necessity for it. One man I know amputated the first joint of his thumb after having it mashed in the door of the safe and made a very good job of it, and I would probably recall other instances if I stopped to think of them. "A doctor naturally feels an inclination to treat himself so far as his particular field lies. Now, I would go to an oculist or a specialist in some other lines, but in the case of any nervous disease I would be inclined to treat myself until the case got beyond me, and then, from the nature of nervous and mind affections, I probably would be more inclined than ever to continue the treatment until my friends interposed to stop it. It is a characteristic of many nervous diseases that the patient is the only one who .Is not aware of his affection. "The only immunity that physicians have from epidemic diseases is that which comes from superior knowledge of the causes of disease transmission and greater care in guarding themselves against it. A physician, for instance, would never have the cholera except through gross carelessness, for that is a disease that can be transmitted only through swallowing the germs, and this can be avoided by proper care and cleanliness, but in typhus fever, which is the most excessively contagious fever known, physicians are no more exempt than any one else, and a great many of them die from it in every epidemic. It is possible now, however, in the advanced stage of antiseptic treatment, by proper care and washing in carbolic acid baths, for the physician and the nurse who are exposed to disease to stand a better chance to escape." —Washington Post.

"Our. daily expenditure for absolute necessities is absurdly extravagant. Since the millionaire era the cost of living with us has been quadrupled. The millionaires are responsible to a great extent for this burden laid upon the people possessing moderate incomes. They have initiated extravagant expenditures in everything. Up go their costly palaces in town and country, stables that must needs hold 25 to 80 horses, a retinae of servants required by a king, a head cook whose wages are equivalent to the salary of the governor of one of our states, the maintenance of a yacht for six month* at an expense that would have paid General Washington's salary as president of the United States. The pace is hot. There is no doubt about that. Bat it Is the pace that only kills the rich snobs and toadies who are silly enough to enter such axaee. Let the millionaires spend their money. It is better than hoarding it to rain children with."—Ward McAllistex.

She Studies For a Dinner. ,j

"1 do study up for a dinner," admitted an ingenuous young woman who goes to a good many such entertainments in the course of the season, "and I don't know that I am ashamed to tell of it. When my invitation comes, as it always doesof course some days or 6ven weeks beforehand, I usually know what persons will comprise the company, and I make a note of the place, date and possible guests in a little book I have for the purpose. As the interval of time passes, in my reading of the newspapers or books and magazines and in my talk with anybody, I keep in mind any bit of interesting comment, incident or a good story, putting them down in outline for my dinner conversation. "Then, just before I start for the feast I look the list over, fixing the range of topics in my mind. Where's the harm? I spend as much, if not more, time over the study of the gown I shall wear and the way I shall do my hair, in order to contribute the best of my appearance at my hostess' table. Why shouldn't I fix up my mind a little as well?"—New. York Times.

Cleaning Carpets.

Carpets may be cleaned and brightened up with ox gall. The ox gall may be obtained at a small cost of your butcher. Put a pint of the gall in a pail of water. Use an ordinary scrubbing brush, and afterward the carpet should be vigorously rubbed with a coarse cloth. Fresh water should be applied. A small portion of the carpet must be done at one time.

It Is Foolish

To send for the doctor every time yon don't feel just right. My doctor's bill for years was over a hundred dollars a year, which made a pretty big hole In my wages. For the past two years, I only spent ten dollars, with which I bought a dozen bottles of Sulphur Bitters, and health has been in my family since using them.—ROBERT JOHNSON, Machinist.

it seems scarcely possible to overestimate the scope and importance of those laws which tend toward the acquisition and preservation of health—physical, mental and moral. If a child is scrawny and sick, peevish and morose, full of bile and "cussedness," he will upset the decalogue and break every commandment, but do not set him to reading "meditations on death" or to studying catechisms, but send him to the gymnasium, allow him to commune with nature in the open air, and he will develop a better disposition and a better character. Those pale, devitalized, saintly children, filled with negative goodness and amiable tameness, are insipid and incapable of those positive, robust, aggressive virtues so much in demand at the present day. —Nursery Gruida

Every Tobacco Cliewer
