and the thirst torment grows maddening. His 
strength sapped by the unequal struggle against 
thirst, the sun, the dust, the wanderer staggers 
forward; in his delirium every point of the 
compass is forward and none for long. When 
he can stagger no longer he crawls in the dust, 
crawls unheeding the foul lizard and the poison 
worm; man, erect no longer in the great image, 
crawls on, his crawling carries him a few yards 
further—now hither. Then the desert wins, the 
sun parches him, the dust drifts a cover over 
him, only to tear it off again. 
In that desert, and headed wrong, are 
wandering now a man, three children, a woman. 
UNFAMILIAR DEER. 
White “red” deer, although extremely rare 
in Scotland, are not by any means unknown, 
and I could mention a number of forests in 
which specimens could be seen. As a rule, they 
are left alone by stalkers; but it does not follow 
that they are invariably allowed to die from 
accident or old age. One of the best known

animal was first noticed on the Cluny estate. 
Two days before the termination of the shoot¬ 
ing season, eight years ago, he was seen in his 
Badenoch retreat, and it being feared that he 
might again peregrinate widely, representations 
were made to neighboring sportsmen with a

<1 Get into a duck blind with a man who owns one of these 5-shot Remington repeaters. 
Watch him make out of range shots; watch his trigger finger do all the work; watch him 
kill the cripples with his 3 extra shots; see how his face is protected by the thick solid steel 
breech; and he will tell you that there is little recoil to pound his shoulder. 
<| ^ ou, too, will want this modern duck gun which loads itself. You can afford one, the price 
is so moderate. Let us send you catalogue, literature, and “ What the Hunters Say.”
