There Is a powerful breed of dogs
along Smiths sound that does not hes
itate to attack the most ferocious wild
animals. These dogs hunt In pairs
and a big bear is a joke to them. One
dog can bring down a reindeer and Kill
it in a few minutes. Their thick coat Is
tawny In hue and in winter a thick
fleece of wool covers them. They look
so much like wolves it is hard to tell
what thew are at a little distance.

!. + HOPE.

Hid In the glorious future,
Luring US ever afar,
Lieth our hopes blest fruition.
Watched by loves guiding star.
Anxious, our eyes scan the darkness
Eager to fathom its gloom;
Oftimes the heart groweth weary,
Longing for loves perfect bloom.
Patience, oh heart of my heart!
Day needs must follow the night,
Sadness reacts unto gladness,
Hope keeps loves fame ever bright.
Some day, we know not how soon, deas
All that is dim will grow clear,
And then, heart to heart, we will jour-
ney
Onward to life's closing year.
