cause It Is far better to allow it to
rest overnight before killing than to
risk the meat spoiling. The flesh of i
an animal that has been overheated
is usually of a pale color and verv
often develops a sour or putrid oder

It is also essential that the animal

Frenchmen Gathered In Qroupi to
Watch American Who Was
Actuslly Drinking Water.
William Allen White tells In the
Book News Monthly how thirsty he
liecaine for water. Just common, plain
water, on a motor Journey through
France, where It was not safe, for
unitary reasons, to drink the water
of the region. The coffee did not taste
good and the wine tssted like diluted
vinegar and looked like pokeherrr
Ink. It seemed only good to put in
fountain pens. Finally, at the end of
a week he and his party stopped at a
hotel where there was bottled water
brought from the American commis
sary department. When he came to
the table ha ordered a bottle and this

They brought a third. The waiters in
the hold were attracted by the sight.
No Frenchman ever drinks water with
his meals, mid the speeiacle of this
American suiming himself with water

waiters gathered In the corner to

stood In the dining room corners to
watch the fourth bottle go down. And
when at the end of the meal Ihe Amer

whatever his delusion tuny be."
Bird Island, In Gulf of 8t. Lawrence,
O.io of World's Moat Desolats
8 pots.
nird Island, most northerly of the
Magdnli n Islands, holds the world's
record for wrecks. The whole group,
lo the flulf of Si. Lawrence, Is exceed
ingly dangerous, but Bird Island stands
first. More like a huge rock than an
Island Its walls rise grim nod gray In
the path of the mariner. The Island
has no beach or roast, only a steep ir
regular cliff rising abruptly from the
water. The top Is n barren plnteau of
about five acres.
Th principal Inhabitants are birds.
Qu'.la, gunnels and murres come In
thousands to nest and rear their young.
The roar of their thousands of wings
drowns the noise of the waters. The
Indiana say that they ore the souls of
shipwrecked sailors.
The human tenant of the plateau
are the lighthouse keeper and his Wife,
doomed to solitary existence except
about once or twice a year when a ship
brings provisions, Bometlmea, perhaps
in about every three or four years, an
enterprising naturalist comes to study
the bird life on the Island.
Ships can approach Bird Island only
In the calmest weather. The slight
est ripple and the craft keeps a re
spectful distance. The lighthouse Is
reached by a rope and windlass. The
hardiest mountain climber would heal
' tutu before attempting to scale Its
rough gray walls.
The keepers of the light have been
singularly unfortunate. The first went
Insane and had to be kept coiillned by
his wife and assistant until the pro
vision boat arrived. The second was
borne away by a floating piece of Ice
when seal bunting In the early spring.
Ills wife maintained the lighthouse
alone until help BOOM from u neigh
boring island.
