 Big Wolves Are Rare, Says MT. Roose-
 Selt.
 Big wolves are found in both Texas and Oklahoma, but they are rare com pared to the coyotes; and they are great wanderers. Alone or in parties of three ,or four or hAf dozen they travel to and fro across the country, often leaving a district at = oncc If they are moiested. Coyotes are more or less plentiful everywhere Through out the West in thinly settled districts, and they often hang about in, the im- mediate neighborhood 6f towns. They do enough damage to make farmers and ranchers kill them whenever the chance offers But this damage is not appreciable when compared with the ravages of their grim, big brother, the gray wolf, which. wherever it exists In numb .-s. is a veritable lcourge to the stockmen.-From "A olf Hunt in Oklahoma" by Theodore Roosevelt, in the November Scribner's.
 Reader Magazine.
 Another distinct advance in quality and appearance is to be noted in The Reader for November, distinct even for this periodical, of which the keynote is continued Improvement. The cover design, in four colors, by Christy, is beautifully appropriate to the Thanks giving season. A reproduction in tint of drawing by Will Vawter, illustrat- ing bit of verse from James Whit comb Riley's new book of poems, Songs 'o' Cheer" makes a beautiful frontis- piece. The introductory article, "A Question of Organization" tells of the lons-drawn-out struggle in San Fran cisco between trades unionism of the rampant. insolent sort and the citizens alliance. styling the battle "a fight for life. An article under the title, The Seeing Eye and the Unhearing Ear" by Sarah Harvey Porter, throws much light on numerous phases, unknown or mis- understood by the general public, of the lives of those who dwell in the Eternal Silence--the deaf mutes.
 Of fiction the November Reader has an abundantly attractive list. The Master by Edward s. Holloway; The End of the Journey" by Emerson G Taylor; The Buckskin Doll" by Jean Cowgirl; "A Case of Atavism." by L. M. Montgomery, and The Great Divide" |" by Alice Winter. form a quintet of short stories of striking originality and in- terest; while the instalment of Meredith Nicholson's great story. The House of a Thousand Candles"--which will reach it's conclusion in the December nnmber lis surprisingly interesting as the narrative approaches it's final climax Other articles are Being Alone in the House." by Helen A. Saxon, and an es- say, Arnold and Joubert." by Richard Rice. Verse is contributed by James whitcomb Riley. John Vance Cheney. Meredith Nicholson. W. J. Hampton, Bliss Carman and others.
 The illustrated department, "Our Own Times" is timely and clever, as usual and a well-written department of book reviews completes an exceptionally well-rounded number of real worth and attractiveness.
