The call of the wild ' can be strong, oven in what was thought to be an eminently respectable pack horse. Fancying probably that it was Pegasus, a pack horse, carrying luggage in which had been placed a wallet containing £IOO in notes and a gold watch, broke away from a hotelkeeper at Broken Hill and quickly disappeared. The way in which it annihilated space staggered its owner. It had heard the call of a mob of “brumbies,” and it is now among them. All efforts to capture it, and, what is more to the point, retrieve the £IOO and the gold watch, have failed. Once or twice parties have got within some distance of it, but it has outwitted them. Summer salads need Sharland’s Table Vinegar. Pure and piquant, in bottle or drauerlit. Specify and insist on “Sharland’s”. 1
