A fter the first sonwfall my comsdn -;and myself began trapping on a small listream, which is in the southern part lof Maine. W e had been in, our camp, which was /«n old hunter’s. cabin, for ■three days when one morning WQ .-arose and much to our surprise we found large bear tracks all around *tlie cabin. W e decided to hurry and eat out breakfast, then to go in search of th e bear. In a short tim e we had fin ished our meal and we w ere ready tto leave, W^e tracked the hear along th e river until about noon when we *ftiopped to cat onr lunch, after,-which w e resumed our chase. We had noit gone far before we found the hear Jbad changed her course and started •tip the side of a mountain, which wa* wery rough. About thr#»^e o'clock in th e -aftemoon., we came upon, some th in g th a t surprised us m o re tham 4he tracks of the hear which we had ■.seeni in the moirning. In a small cave in the rocks not ten feet ahead lay tw o little cubs We at once decided “to capture tliem and then m ake our w a y back to camp. It was not a very difficult task to caitch the cubs as th e y were not more than four weeks old. We ijtarted for our cabin, my cous in carrying the gun and I. the cubs tinder my arm s. As he could travel hLUCh fa.ster than I, he decided/ to go ..ahead and prepare suppeT. I soon lost -sight of hkn itn the dense forest. He had not been gone long from my sight, before I heard a loud crasliing of limbs behind me. Turning I saw •a mammoth bear coming .toward me a t full speed At once, I knew what she was a f t— so I decided to le t her Itave the cubs while I hastened up a tall tree nearby. I called a s loud* i.y ais I could but heard no answer, 3u>wever, s-oon the motheir bear and h e r cubs turned and walked islowly -away. I waited several mlmites be* fore climbirg dowin the tree. As soon .as I reachr’ the ground I made off fiaster than the bear had come. H. R.

T J AYE you not often wanted to know how long a child with scarlet 2 fever must be isolated after it is up and about or how long a child exposed to whooping cough was likely to come down with the disease ? The Public Health Council of New York has just made regulations covering these points, and they are printed below for the information of the readers of this newspaper. CUT THIS TABLE OHT AND KEEP IT. Some day you will be glad to have it in. the house-: CHIGKENPOX may be commnnicahle until twelve days after the appearance of the eruption and until the crusts have fallen and the -scars are completely healed. DIPHTHERIA (membranous croup) may be co-mmunieahle until two cultures have been taken from the nose and throat at intervals of twenty-four hours and sent to the bacteriological laboratory and found to be free from diphtheria bacilli. MEASLES may be communicable until ten days after the appear ance of the rash and until all discharges from the nose, ears and throat have disappeared and until the cough has ceased. MUMPS may be communicable until two weeks after the appear ance of the disease and one week after the disappearance of the swell ing. SCARLET FEVER may be communicable until thirty days after the development of the disease and until all discharges from the nose, ears and throat or suppurating glands have ceased. SMALLPOX may he communicable until fourteen days after the development of the disease and until scabs have all separated and the scars completely healed. WHOOPING COUGH may he communicable until eight weeks after development of the disease or until one week after the last charac teristic cough. These rules tell you how long the patient should he isolated after an attack of the disease. The other thing every one wants to know is— how long must a child or other person who has been EXPOSED TO INFECTION be watched to see if the disease is going to develop ? This depends on what is called the INCXJBxlTION PERIOD of the disease. After disease germs get into the nose or throat or some other part of the body the person for some time is perfectly well, \during this time—the incubation period—the germs are growing and increasing in the body, but there are not enough of them to cause active sickness. Then at last, when the germs have multiplied enough, the fever and headache and the other sjunptoms develop and the patient comes down with the disease. This period between infection and active eickness varies with different diseases, as shown in the table below: INCUBATION PERIOD OF CO^IMON DISEASES. Chickenpox ............ .. ................... . 21 days. Diphtheria ............... . .............................. * Inde&oite. Measles......................... . ........................ 14 days.
