Hunt Big Game 
Don’t hesitate because inexperienced. Go this 
year, while there are still a few places left where 
you will see game that has never been hunted and 
have your hunting all to yourself. I can show 
you Mountain Sheep, Caribou, Moose, Grizzly 
Bears, in a country where no other white man has 
ever been and the game has not become dwarfed 
from the conditions which always arise after 
hunting is started. I make all arrangements, and 
personally manage expedition, preserve trophies, 
etc., as hunter companion; advise as to purchase 
of fire-arms and cameras and give instruction in 
shooting and wild game photography. References

no more than eight or ten inches. First 
nail cleats on the outside of the bottom 
to raise the box from the ground, and cut 
a small door on one side, providing leather 
hinges and a strap for fastening it when 
open. On the under side of the top (which 
is separate from the box) nail strips of 
flannel cloth which has been slashed in 
strips as long as the box is deep; the strips 
should be set about three inches apart, so 
that they hang down inside the box when 
the cover is in place, so the little bodies 
may snuggle in between the flannel strips 
without being entangled, and thus keep as 
warm as though among feathers. Set the 
box in the sun (or in a warm room) and 
open the door, providing a bridge so that 
thev may run out and in as desired.

Summer Care of the Dog 
A LTHOUGH these August days are 
so often spoken of as dog days, the 
name certainly does not represent the 
fact from the dog’s standpoint. Indeed 
such treatment is accorded him that the 
hot weather often sees an end to his so¬ 
journ among us. Sedulous for our own 
comfort we change our diet, clothing and 
manner of living and forget the dog we 
have made to rely so much upon us for 
support. Sometimes his own endeavors 
to obtain relief are thwarted by the chil¬ 
dren, who alone of all animals seem to be 
oblivious to the scorching weather and 
who seem rendered more active and mis¬ 
chievous by the very oppression which 
wearies the rest of us. Perhaps a plea 
for consideration will not fall upon bar¬ 
ren ground; let us turn a little attention 
from our perspiring selves to our friend 
the dog and keep him from the evil results 
of a heating diet, and torment at the hands 
of his wards, the children. 
The first consideration should be that 
of quenching the dog’s thirst. In thou¬ 
sands of cases he is parched with thirst 
while the dripping ice pitcher stands just 
beyond his nose tantalizing him to the 
point of madness. Provide for your pet’s 
comfort as well as your own ; have a bowl 
of fresh water in an accessible place and 
kept as cool as possible. Out of doors 
some arrangement should be made for 
drinking, either a trough or water-pan, 
where the dog can find it, or else he may 
suffer the consequences of drinking foul 
water, which are often disastrous. If you 
have been urged to keep a stick of sulphur 
in the water and cannot resist, be assured 
that it is as harmless as the water itself, 
but has no cooling virtue. 
Sulphur may be used to advantage in 
cooling the dog in hot weather, but it 
should not be used in the stick form. Mix 
equal parts of powdered sulphur and mag¬ 
nesia thoroughly together and put as much 
as will cover a ten-cent piece in the evening 
meal. Continue this treatment for a week, 
stirring the medicine well into the food 
each night. This will be found to have a 
cooling effect, and will help to keep the 
animal in condition. If your dog is a
