A number of lions visited the trenches at a British post on the German East Africa frontier in November. With great daring they got into a kraal containing a number of animals for food for the garrison, which was very near to one of the British pickets, and killed 40 sheep and goats. Next evening a gun was set, and at 7 o'clock the lions again appeared. The gun went off, and a fullgrown cub was found dead, but there was no sign of any more animals. Again the gun was charged, although it was not thought likely that the lionß would venture to return the same night. They did come back, however, and this time successfully avoided the gun and got the remainder of the prey. Although the intruders were distinctly heard by the sentries, the night was so dark and rainy that nothing could be done, and once more they got away. On the following night, a trap having been cut and covered in, a number of officers watched in the trenches. Three-quar-ters of an hour later a shot rang out, and next morning u big lioness was found not 30 yards away. It seems that one of the officers iii the trenches thought he saw n lion and fired, whereupon the animal sprang forward and landed on top of the trench. Luckily, this was strong, and, as nothing more was heard, it was believed that, in the darkness, the animal had made off. THERE IS ONLY ONE SANDER EXTRACT, and that is why the people insist on getting it, and why they reject the many inferior substitutes and the cheap and frequently harmful "just as good." The GENUINE SANDER EXTRACT is free from the objectionable qualities of the common Eucalyptus oils and so-called "extracts." SANDER'S EXTRACT is the most powerful antiseptic and healing remedy that can be üßed with safety; it prevents and cures a]l infectious diseases, influenza, colds, fevers, .smallpox, diphtheria, flatulence, dyspepsia, diarrhoea, dysentery and kidney troubles. SANDER'S EXTRACT, applied to ulcers, burns, sprains, cuts, inflamed skin, etc., gives immediate relief and cures permanently. Reliability, Effectiveness and Safety are the great attributes of SANDER'S EXTBAgT. "
