A clerk's life, ordinarily, is u very
humdrum one with but very little
variety to the daily routine. Ihit
Mr. Fred It. Mor' m of No. 80 Vesper,
street, Portland Me., had an experi
ence recently which has made hia life
now a very happy one. In tilling a
reporter of what he went through he
said:
"I had been suffering with stomach
trouble for about two years. Every
day sbout ten o'clock in the morning
and three o'clock in the afternoon 1
U-canie faint and felt so bad that if I
did not sit down I would fall. That
senaation usually lusted for about an
hour and when noon came I had ik
pjetite for lunch.
"I saw Dr. Williams' Pink Tills for
Tale People advertised in the daily
patier about a year ago and decided
to try them. I felt relief from the
first box and after I had taken six
boxes my disease was cured. I do not
take them now but always keep them
in the house, I have told my friends
what these pills have done for me and
"should I know of anyone's being sick
as I was I should recommend Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Tale People."

Itlggeat Game Preserve.
The largest game preserve In the
world Is the continent of Africa, or at
leant the greater portion of It extend
ing from the twentieth degree of north
latitude down to the northern Iwrders
or Cape Colony and Natal. This great
scheme was made potmlble by a treaty
co-operation of England, Germany,
France, Belgium, Portugal, Italy and
Spulu, by which It Is provided that the
hunting and destruction of vultures,
secretary birds, owls, giraffes, goiillns,
chimpanzees, mountain zebras, wild
asses, white-tailed gnus, elunc and the
little Llberlau hippopotami are abso
lutely prohibited. Slmllur protection
is given the young of ceritilu animals,
Including the elephant, rhinoceros, hip
popotamus, antelope, gazelle, Ibex and
chevroa!n, and to the adults of these
species when accompanied by their
young, says a writer In Field and
Stream. Particular stress is laid on
the protection of young elephants, and
elephnnttusks weighing lefts than twen
ty pounds will be confiscated. Tho eggs
of the ostrich and many other birds are
protected, but those of the crocodile,
python and poisonous snakes are to be
destroyed. Even lions, leopards, hyenas,
harmful monkeys and large birds of
prey may not be slaughtered at the
hunter's will. Hunters are required to
take out licenses, and the number of
animals each may kill is limited. The
use of nets and pitfalls Is forbidden,
nor may explosives be used for killing
Qsh.
The main object of this vast protec
tive enterprise Is economic, to encour
age the domestication of the elephant,
zebra and ostrich and to husband the
trade In wild animal products, which
was threatened by the rapacity of
market hunters and so-called sports
men. : ' ' ' -'V
