AN EX-F4RW HAND UTTERS A
WORD or EARNING.

Hf College Boys and "YounG Society Men"
Get ~ Day He Fears There VIII BE
Little Profit for the Farmer Financial
outlook OF Haryesters From the East.
The stories printed ia the last few days
OF the demand for harvest hands in Kansas
and Of the college boys and young society
men from the East who have improved
the opportunity to go to Kansas and work
in the harvest fields arouse increduity'
in the mind Of gentleman In this city,
who has not only seen the wheat fields OF
the West. but has toiled in the harvest
Tor years Here is what he has to say ON
tho subject;
There are college boys and perhaps
society men who are familiar with hard farm
work and can doas much work in yellow
wheat field in day as any farm hand ofthe
West, but they are not in excessive sup
ply and it is difficult to figure out very
important financial harvest for them
These dispatches say that the wages
paid by Kansas farmers in the harvesp
field are from $3.50 to 81 day. These
are, indeed, gilt-edged harvest wages.
The usual price in the great wheat fields
"'7o'" al" 'he D"holdS ~ lrotn
$3.50 to 81 a day.
1T is difficult to see how Kansas farmsrs
can make any money ont Of their wheat
crop Mt such high wages for harvesting.
In 1901 the average yield Of the Kansas
wheat fields was 1873 bushels an acre and tbs
price of wheat was SO cents bushel In
1902 the average yield of the Kansas fields
was only 10 bushels 10 the acre and the
farmers parted with their crop at an aver
age price of SIS cents Il busbcl

A lawyer, who spent the briefess
days Of his career in New York City
and Is now a successful practitioner
in the West, tells in the New York
Mail and Express how a master Of the
telling phrase taught him to curb the
thunderous voice with which nature
endowed him.
In those days he ives "a vociferous
cub,' In his own phrase until Justice
P. Henry Dugro lifted him into the
seventh heaven Of judicial approba-
tion-and suddenly let him down
again.
He had been assaulting the ear
drums Of the court for ten minutes,
and he concluded by saying, Il am
sure my argument must be convincing,

Value of Wild 1seast.

Few lions are captured nowadays.
1t is cheaper to buy them in captivity,
but lions and polar, grizzly and Rus
sian bears are the only animals large
ly bought and sold in captivity. Most
wild animals are remarkably prolific,
and there are plenty Of them left all
over the world. The animals dealers
lose about 20 per cent of their impor-
tations each year. If lion lies $1,000
has vanished into thin air, and the
death Of tiger involves an equal loss
A lioness Is valued at $500, leopaTds
at $500, panthers at $3.50, bears from
$50 to $500, elk at $500, camels at $500,
elephants at $500. The agent in charge
Of the transportation of the animals
must know all their ailments and the
remedies. He must have their habits
at his finger tips and he must also pos
sess cool, practical courage Of the
highest order. He goes among the
animals and COWS them as If they
were SO many cats, and his rule Is alb
solute. 1t takes man Of very DOM
inant personality to do this. There Is
not minute that he may relax while
he Is with the animals He must al
ways be to them the personifcation Of

u. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA

The only rational way to cure dysge@s
STA Is to remove the catarrh. PecuaE

artificial digestion. 1t cures catarrh Ga&

in a natural way. This Is vastly be4feg
and safer than resorting to artiScfA

Peruna has cured more cases Of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies cour-
bined, simply because it cures casarr&
wherever located. If catarrh is located
in the head, Peruna cures it. If cstsrxh
has fastened itself in the throat oc
bronchial tubes Peruna cures it. When
catarrh becomes settled in the stomach,
Peruna cures it, as we'll in this location
as In any other.
Peruna Is not simply remedy for

TRouT-FlsHINo ADVENTURES.
Narrow Escape from Death Beneath a
Trap in a jam of Logs.

Narrow Escape from Death Beneath a
Trap in jam of Logs.
On one occasion, In northern Michi.
gan, was trout fishing in company
with veteran timber cruiser, q man
who knew everything about the rough
bush life. In time we reached a bend
In the stream where lot of small logs
had damned during the spring freshet.
MY comrade unconcernedly ventured
upon the logs, and before I could fol-
low, by some mischance, he stepped
upon a loose one and instantly disap-
peared. Had not been looking at him
It IS likely [ should have imagined he
mad crossed and gone into the brush
upon the farther side. One log Of all
the mass was rolling, and hand
showed at one side Of 1t. To dart
across and seize the hand occupied a
very few seconds, but, to my horror,
could not pull him up through the
narrow space through which he had
slipped.
TO set a foot upon the log either
side the opening and shove with all
strength was the only hope. For sec
onds chung to the wrist and strained
nightly. Slowly the logs separated
and up he came till he was able to
twist upon his stomach across log.
Half-droWned as he was, he had not
lost his nerve. 'Do-don't let 'em
squeeze back on me!'' he gasped, and
q moment later he was on his feet.
Most men would have weakened
then, but he was iron, says the nara
tor, Edwin Sandys, in the World
Work. He had swallowed 1t of
water; had been cheek by jovl with
an awful death, yet he had no idea
Of proving false. The logs were slow
ly slipping farther apart and l was
standing like a certain large gentle
man of Rhodes, and unable to stand
much more spreading or to spring to
either side, while, of course, to slip
into the water meant to enter the trap
he had just escaped. In few seconds
he seized my hand, and one quick haul
carried me to firm footing. The logs
at once closed like q gigantic trap.
When we reached solid ground my
comrade almost collapsed, and for half
an hour he was a very sick man.
Later he said: II held my breath as
long as l could, calculatin' you might
try to get at me, an, pardnerr I'll new
er forget that little turn. 1 reckon l
was in a mighty tight place.

The chemical laboratory is
fitted up with sinks and water

other for the use of the teacher

further end of the hall are about
six steps leading to the first
floor. Another short flight OF
stairs takes the pupil to the
main floor where the assembly
room is located. A stair OF
twelve steps leads down from
the first floor to the gymnasium
and running track.
Brief Description Of Interior.
The basement contains the
gymnasium, running track,
separate dressing and toilet
rooms for boys and girls, a lunch
room, manual training rooms,
boiler and furnace rooms.
The first floor contains the

rooms.
The second floor contains the
assembly room, reference library
principals office, four recitation
rooms, boys and girls toilet

On the third floor are found
the physical, chemical and bio
logical Laboratories, and a lecture
room. The attic is intended fol
the use of the domestic science
rooms, but it has not yet been
finished. A freight elevator runs
| from the basement to attic floor
Gymnasium and Running Track.
The arrangement of the gym
nasium contemplates the use Of
all the modern conveniences to
make it one OF the best in the
state. The size of the main floor
is 4OxSO. Eight feet above this
floor is a running track of elipti-
cal shape. The floor ofthe track
is raised at the ends that there is
no danger that the runner will
slip and fall when exercising.
There are inclined passages lead
ing from the gymnasium floor to
the boys and girls dressing
