managed to catch a female wolf in
trap. He built a large yard near his
shanty and in it keeps the wolf, fast
ened 10 a log chain. Her howls bring
wolves for miles around, and the trap
per, sitting in his cabin, calmly shoots
them at his leisure.
In every section of the peninsula
wolves are reported unusually numer-
Gus this year. The deer in conse-
quence are suffering, as the many car
casses seen in the woods testify, and
lately even men have been attacked.
Only a day or two ago a case of the
latter transpired in Dickinson county.
Claude Freckelton, employed as
cook at logging camp, six miles from
.FlOodwood, started in the evening 10
walk to the village. When half the
distance he heard something running
toward him and, turning, saw a wolf
close by. The man, not being armed,
was badly frightened. The yelps of
the wolf were answered by others,
and soon four other of the animals
had joined their companion. Freckel-
ton luckily managed 10 find a club and
thus armed began backing away. The
hungry animals would circle around
him and snap at his legs, and when
ever they came near enough he would
strike at them.
In this manner the three remaining
miles were Travelled. Freckelton eX-
pected every minute would be his last,
until finally when, just at the outskirts
of the town the wolves made jump at
him. The leader was laid low with the
club and the man turned and ran to
safety, the wolves. frightened at the
proximity Of the houses, giving up the
chase.

to the woman who saved her husband

vented by her heroism a general GeIiy-

The bravtst woman? Perhaps she
is, but Susan Kees wept like the weak

townspeOpIe visited the WaIa WaHa

with a silver water pitcher and goblet
bearing the above inscription.

cred her voice. After all, you must re-

And did it We'll" responded the cit
jzens of WaEa Walla, as in a chorus.
1t was the desire of three western
desperadCes TO eat their Christmas
dinner outside of prison walls that
gave Mrs. kees the opportunity to
show her mettle. Walla Walla, Wash,
always had considered the sheriff's
wife plucky little creature, but never
had the town reached the point where
it seemed justified in challenging the
west for her equal.
Among the desperate men who were
locked in the Walla WaEa Jail were Ar
thur Rogers, San Jose bad man, who
has had an interior view of many pen
itentiaries; Marshall Linn, a highway
man, and Giant Jack" Andrews, the
terror of the Coppei hills. Eleven other

to escape is believed to have originated

Sheriff KEGS braced himself, and tried
as best he could to prevent the men

YOUR BLOOD MADE NEW.

Your heart beats about sixty thousand times day. Every drop of blood in your veins visits every part of your body about five hundred times each twenty four hours. Is 1t any wonder that many troubles arise when the blood Is not riyht?
 Is it hard to understand why health ouiclrly returns. when you take a remedy like Dr. E7arters Iron Tonic, a remedy that purifles and enriches the blood?
 It does far more than that, because it is the perfect example of everything that .tonic'' stands for. But 1t would he Q wonderful remedy if its power to make led. rich blood was its only property. IF is far better than so-cailed blood purifiers because 1t both makes and purifies inc blood.
 It is not one of the crude forms of iron that injures the teeth and stomach. hut q delicate harmless form that Is almost in stantly passed from the stomach to the Lood. In the blood 1t battles against weakness and disease, and helped hv ths other ingredients of that famous remedv 1t rids tho system of all impurities and helps each sluggish organ to do its full duty.
