age. Strong Greek reinforcements were
brought up, but the Turkish left resisted
the onslaught. During the battle the
Turkish center was hidden behind thick
wood, which proved an adequate defense.
In the morning two Turkish squadrons
charged the Greek position. At first
they were successful, but meeting with
large force, strongly intrenched, they suf-

United States, and as product Of past
conditions he is disappearing as surely
as the game which he has hunted. In
the great northern belt Of States border
ing upon the Canadian line he is found
in dwindling numbers, vainly striving TO
make q living in his precarious calling,
and bemoaning the times when it was
an easy matter to find enough animals
in his traps each day to keep him sup
piled with money. II is now the work
Of a week to gather the skins that for
merly came to his traps in day.
The popularity OF furs has not de-
clined. In fact, they are more in demand
than ever, and fashion decrses that they
shall be worn every winter on garments
for men and for women. Most Of them
command higher price than ever in the
history Of civilization, but the trapper
does not profit 80 much by this change
as might be supposed. The fur.bearing
animals are disappearing faster than the
prices for the furs advance. Other un-
settled regions Of the globe are being
explored to help supply the markets Of
the world with skins, and science is
doing everything in its power to utilize
the common skins Of the domestlCated
animals. The fur Of the cat, dog, sheep,
lamb and other animals of our barn-yard
and household has already become valu-
able commercially, and through the
dyer's art and the curriers' skill the
wearers Of cheap furs are totally deceived.
