wondrous length, which, while he is In
active motion, he twists into the
tightest corkscrew. but with which
while quietly feeding he raps his leath-
cry sides much in the same manner
that the docile COW uses her tall. He
is self-supporting. He earns his owl
living and thrives equally we'll In the
high woods. the fiat woods, in the
hummocks and in the marshes. He
subsists upon anything he can find
above the earth or underneath it's sur
face. He has a clear, far-seeing eye
and is very sensitive of hearing. Ma.
ture has equipped him with a snout
almost as long as the beak Of the wild
pelican of Borneo, with which he car

quest of worms, snakes and insects
He is the most intelligent OF all hogs

He has been known to engage in NOR

Wan war Il is not strange that Chile
should have considered herself cock Of
the walk and In due time have offered
insult TO peaceful Uncle Sam himself.
The present complication grew out
Of the treaty Of 1881, by which Chile
ana Argentina agreed to consider the
crest of the Andes as the dividing line
between their respective governments.
All east of the crest including the
greater part OF Patagonia and portion
of TERRA del Fucgo, was granted to Ar
pennna while chile took all between
the Audcan crest and the Pacific ocean.
Th.t agreement was Professionally en-
tered into twenty years ago. but there
have been frequent chickering's since, as
there were many times before. for the
