While strolling on' the tmnks of French Creek, near Clayton, In com pany with my wife and n friend, we started a wood-cock, which feigned being wounded and gave utterance to the most plaintive squeaks, from wijjch we Inferred the nest must be ti?,ir, says a writer In Forest and .Stream. A short search discovered It among small bushes on the ground In a com paratively exposed position. The nest contained three eggs, which we, of course, did not disturb. Leaving the nest for over an hour, I cautiously re turned, and getting on my bunds and knees crept within ten feet of It with out disturbing the old bird. After watching her for about 10 minutes I saw her stand up In the nest, and with her bill and one foot change the posi tion of two of the eggs, after which she settled back on the nest She then evidently saw me, for she gave a sudden twist sideways with her head and then slowly and cautiously stretched out as flat as possible, her bill resting flat on the ground. She re mained thus for fully Ave minutes. Presently I arose from my position and stepped forward, when the bird quietly sneaked away from the nest, seeming to crouch as near the ground as possible, until about 20 feet away, when she arose with the usual cry, but immediately fell to the ground, fluttered up and down and finally turned over on her back, fluttering her wings as If In the last agony, but as I approached she scram bled away, dragging one wing on the ground until she had led me fully two hundred yards from the nest, when sud denly she bade me au revolr nnd darted away like a rocket. Secreting myself some distance from the nest, In fourteen minutes I was surprised to see her sit ting oit It as before being disturbed, but how she reached there I am un able to say, as I did not see her ap proach, and half a " minute before her appearance on the nest nothing was to bo seen or , heard. As the woods were open I had an excellent opportunity of watching her Interesting maneuveres arid had hoped to be able to note the manner in which the return would be made. '-. ..

' '' BLO0DPOISO1 THE BLACK FLAG The black flag is an emblem of liorror and dread. When it is hoisted by an army, the order has gone forth that "no quarter " will be given, ev erything must be destroyed. Helpless women and children, as well as oppos ing soldiers, meet the same fate, and a trail of desolation, suffering and death is left behind. Contagious Blood Poison is the black flag of the great army of disease. This vile disorder is known as the blackest and most hide ous of all human afflictions, overthrowing its victims and crushing out the life. It is no respecter of persons ; no matter how pure the blood may be or how innocently the disease is contracted, when this awful virus enters thq circulation the hideous, hateful and humiliating symptoms begin to appear, and the sufferer feels that his very presence i3 polluting and contaminating. Usually the first sign of the disease is a little sore or ulcer, but as the blood becomes more deeply poisoned the severer symptoms are manifested, the mouth and throat ulcerate, the glands in the groins swell, a red rash breaks out on the body, the hair and eyebrows come out, and often the body is cov ered with copper-colored spots, pustular eruptions and sores. In its worst Btages the disease affects the nerves, attacks the bones and sometimes causes tumors to form on the brain, produc Several years aero X had blood poison and my flesh was in an awful condition, Great sores would break out and noth ing: I put on them would do any good. My hair and eyebrows fell out and I was "a frin-ht." Mv mouth was so sore I had to live on milk and water. I took Mercury for a long: time and instead of setting- Better 1 continued to grow worse and my arms and hands became solid sores. My legrs were drawn so I could not walk tfnd I felt that my time was short here if I did not set some re lief. I beg-an to use your S. S. S. and it helped me from the start. After taking it awhile the sores all healed, my rheu matism was cured and to-day I am a strong-, well man. It not all the mer cury out of my system and it oured me sound and well. ADAM BCHNABEL, ' Evansville, Ind. , No. 211 Mary St. ing insanity and death. Not only those who contract the poison suffer, but unless the virus is driven from the blood the awful taint is handed down to offspring, and they are its innocent victims. Blood Poison is in deed a "black flag." Mercury and Potash, so often used, never can cure the trouble. These minerals merely drive the symptoms away for awhile end shut the diseaseup in the system, nnd when they are left off it returns worse than before. This treatment hot only fails to cure blood poison but eats out the delicate lining of the Stomach and bowels, produces chronic dyspepsia, loosens the teeth and fre quently causes mercurial rheumatism to add to the patient's suffering. S. S. S., the great vegetable medicine, is the conqueror of this vile disease. It goes down to the very root of the trouble and cures by cleansing the blood of every particle of the poison. S. S. S. does not hide or cover up anything but clears the entire circulation of the viru9 and put3 the system in good healthy condition. It cures, safely as well as certainly, because there is not a particle of mineral in it. We offer a re ward of $1,000.00 for proof that S. S. S. is not purely vegetable. When the blood is purified and strengthened with this great remedy the symptoms all pass away and no sign of the disease is ever seen again ; nor is there left the least trace to be handed down to posterity.

A second look, " however, showed him close to the trunk of a hickory. Then he slid forward to another shelter. Such was the manner of progress un til reaching a treeless patch of ground when the figure went to earth, and In approved Indian style wormed ahead in the shelter of a few bushes. Finally he rose behind a tree and leaped forward. The suspect, a black-browed, mus tached Italian In velvet coat, had no chance to tako alarm, escape or fight. "You were shooting at the birds. I'll have to arrest you." "No, no 1 Me no shoot anyt'ing." "Have you been in the hospital?" asked the detective. "No, boss I" "Then perhaps this explains your stiff gait I" The explanation, In fact, was the bar rel of a 22 caliber rifle which the officer drew from the Italian's trouser leg. The .stock, which had been unscrewed from the barrel a moment after the shooting, was found under the man's coat A blood-stained bunch of feath ers, which was lately a song-sparrow, came from a back pocket.
