Are you looking for some kind of
power that you can use in your barn to-
day, down in the woods tomorrow, over
in your neighbors' woods next day2
Something that costs nothing until
started and all expense stops the instant
the power stops2 An engine that always
goes no matter what the weather condi-
tions may be? If so, let us tell you
more about Ideal engines, which are
guaranteed for one year, and sent out to
responsible farmers on 10 days trial.
We make speciality Of 8 H. p engine
that is adapted to farm use 1t costs
but little more for gasoline to pump
water with this engine than it does
with smaller one, which is of no prac-
tical use except for pumping. This en-
CINE will grind feed, buzz wood and do
any work requiring power on the farm.
Ideal engine will be on exhibition at

| COYOTE AND BOARS'
THEIR ANTICS WATCHED BY
 ERNEST HAROLD HAYNES.
The Coyote Proves Himself . Coward When Cornersd and Runs for Protection from His Hu-
 man Friend.

Yesterday I walked through the Blue Mountain forest with Romulus, my prairie wolf. He lives in the great game preserve altogether now, but he comes to the Northwest Gate every night to be fed, and he is never so far away but he will come quickly at a call. pleased as any dog to start out with us for tramp.
 It was about o'clock in the after noon when I unlocked the forest gate, and the wolf was nowhere in sight. Making a speaking trumpet of my hands. I called his name, drawing 1t out as long as could hold my breath. As the echo -died away among the hills. l heard the coyotes answering howl, and presently saw him, a speck of gray against the snow. com ing ct lope over the crest of some rising ground. His loose hair moved in the wind as he came and gave him the appearance of something blown along. When he came up he, smelled, shook his head knowingly and pranced about. showing his pleasure in every movement. Then he leaned upon me, seizing my gloved hand in his teeth, and as I moved along, he trotted be- side me, holding on to loose strap of one of my snow shoes, which strap he quickly cut through with his teeth and carried of to play with.
 Then Romulus and went up the hill to the east for half mile, then south to an open glade in the forest, where I could watch the wild boar when they came in for their evening meal at the feeding ground. In work ing their way through the snow, they had made deep and narrow trails to and from the places tbey wished to visit, and along these they were in the habit of passing, sometimes singly and. again dozen together in single file.
 It was not long before I heard in the distance a grunting. and squealing which told me the wild pigs were com ing, and moment later I could see number walking along in Indian file well to the east of me. I decided to change my position, and quietly worked my way over to another clump of trees. crossing the bear trail be- fore> mentioned and getting to the windward of it. The wolf saw the

 At the chateau the meeting between the two monarchs was unreservedly cordial on both sides. They spoke with satisfaction of the peace now e1- isting between them and of other mat ters social and political. The emperor deplored deeply the untimely demise of Francis son. Charles. who had caught the infection of plague while sleeping at Abbeville. Later the misal- liance of the princess was cautiously touched upon. That lady. said Francis gravely. to whom the gayeties of the court at the present time could not fail to be dlstasteful, had left the cha teau immediately upon her return.

pigs coming, and erecting the hair on his back, he set out to meet them. Long before he reached them they got his scent, and "whoofng" disgustedly, they ran back on their own trail They did not go far, however, but. coming to . fork in the tracks. turned and again headed for the feeding ground, over the very route I had expected to see them on in the first place. l felt sure they would not pass the point at which I had crossed this trail, but waited to see what they would do.
 On came the boar, two little gray pigs leading. followed by a large one. almost black. possibly their mother, and behind her there were half a dozen more of different sizes. They soon smelt the coyote. and saw him, too, for that matter. but after halting for about a minute they seemed to decide that there was nothing very dangerous about him, and proceeded on their way.
 Almost before he knew 1t the first little pig ran into my trail. and he stopped so quickly that he almost fell backward over. With . wild "whoof' of disgust and fear. he turned and ran, the others following his example on the instant. Then he seemed to change his mind. and the whole party stopped. while the first little pig ad- vanced, as though to make sure there was no mistake. As he reached the cross trail. he turned back as before but. again changing his mind. he seemd to make a desperate resolve He decided to take the risk, and. gathering all his strength, he dashed wildly over the hated spot. and sped away toward the feeding grounds as madly as sped the pigs which ran down . steep place into the sea.
 All this time the coyote had been but an interesting spectator. but now, seeing the little pig isolated. as 1t were. he jumped into the trail and started after it at the top of his speed. For . moment both pig and wolf were lost to sight. but then we heard . rushing sound. and along the trail came the coyote. running for his life. with the little gray boar right close behind him. As the wolf drew near me. he bolted the track. and the pig kept straight on the trail until he joined his compan- ions. when the whole herd turned and dashed off. grunting and squealine, into the forest

Standing at the door of his inn. the landlord drop ped his jaw in amazement as his glance fell upon the jestress and her companion behind the great emperor himself. His surprise, too. was ab- ruptly voiced by a ragged. wayworn person not far distant in the crowd. whose fingers had been busy about the pockets of his neighbors: fingers which had delft habit of working by them selves while his eyes were bent else where and his lips joined in the gener- al acclaim: fingers which. like anten- nae. seemed to have a special intelli- gence of their own.

 During the next day Charles called first for his leech and then for a priest: but, whether the former or the latter, or both. temporarily assuaged the rest lessness of mortal disease, that night he was enabled to be present at the character dances given in his honor by the ladies of the court in the great gallery of the chateau.

 made her seem 70 illusive from the in- ception of their acquaintance. And now, since his identity had been re- vealed, she had seemed more puxsling to him than ever.

Above the gate shone glimmer from the narrow easement of some officers quarters, and the testers misgiving when they had ridden be- meath the portcullis into the town for the first time recurred to him; also the glad haste With which they had sped away.
 Memories of dangers, of the free and untrammeled character of their wan dering, that day to day intimacy and night to night consciousness of her presence haunted him. Her loyalty, her hne sense of comradeship. her ,in- herent tenderness. had been revealed to him.

TRUST AND TARIFF.

1t appears that the trust evil has
grown to such proportions that its
power for public harm can no
longer be set aside, while at the
same time the fact is thrust upon
public notice that an unjust tariff
is responsible for the trust.

delivered last week, President
Simmons of the Fourth National
Bank of New York thus treats of
the trust benefciaries of the tariff

cosr Of LIVING

Atlanta Journals The cost of
living in these United States Of
America seems to be steadily in
creasing. A statement recently
issued by the bureau of commerce
and labor says that for the year
1904 the cost of living was in ex-
cess of any previous year in the
history of the country.
The year 1896 was the only
year for a number of years, accord
to the statement of the departments
statisticians, in which the cost of
living did not show an increase.
In 1890 the average cost per fami-
ly was $3IS,7o. In 1896 it was
$500. 70. In 1904 it was $347.Io'
an increase of more than $50 over
1906, and an Increase of about S25
over 1890.
This general increase has not as
a rule gone hand in hand with an
increase in the price of farm pro-
duce, or the price of labor,

RECOGNIZE RESOURCES.

The following item is taken
from the Fort Pierce News, and is
republished to show what can be
accomplishedin Florida, and what
should be done in order that self
maintenance may be perfected:
1.-THE first load of hay brought
to Fort Pierce was hauled by 6. E.
Dutton, of White City, and sold to
Mrs. Thompson, for her horse.
Until'a few years ago it was not
thought practicable to raise hay in
this part Of the country, but now
all the farmers at White City and
in the Ten Mile Creek section raise
their own bay and are beginning
to sell it, This hay is far superior
to the bailed hay that is shipped
in here
That many Florida farmers are
now putting up hay for their use
is hopeful mark of progress, and
this work should be continued un-
til the supply is sufficient to dis
courage shipment of hay from
abroad.
Not only hay, but every other
thing possible of production
should be raised at home. 1t is in
this manner that people become
enriched.
When the money of state is
used to purchase abroad supplies
chat may well be produced at
home then it is that the workers ex-
haust their resources without bene-
fit to themselves, while the result
Of their labor is an important factor
in the enrichment Of those who
have no personal interest in the
welfare Of THERE customers.
Take notice Of your advantages
and work for their development.

Here is where the True Democrat
turns on the searchlight; "For the
entire four years Of the mount ency OF
the late Hon. VIM. H. Reynolds as
Comptroller, the annual reports Of that
official aggregated 1868 pages for the
ensuing four years, under Comptroller
Groom, the annual reports aggregated
1 .e42 pages, an increase OF more than
392 per cent in this single item OF
official printing. This enormous mass
Of badly-executed work was not made
necessary by any abnormal increase in
the transactions of the Office, but
bears all the ear-marks IL "put-up
Job" to make unlawful gain out Of the
people, and could not have been pos
sible under the administration of such
a man as Reynolds. Is it any wonder
that the belief generally prevailed
that the Comptroller and the State
printer were unitedly interested in a
miserable scheme to extract the peo-
pie money from the State treasury
for an unnecessarily exaggerated mass
of slouchy work."
