TRAILING WILD BOAR

Kimton the guide, who does most Of
the professional" shooting in the Corbin
game preserve, had just returned from
deer hunting. He took off his frozen snow
shoes, put his rife in the gun rack and
was about to sit down comfortably before
the wood stove when there came a single
long ring at the telephone. He walked
over TO the instrument and took down the
receiver.
Hello
Hello, Kimton, This is Mr.. Viles Have
you seen any very big boar over in your
section lately? L don't mean just ordinary
big ones, but ripping good ones, with tusks
three or four inches long? We want to get
a very fine specimen for one of the big
museums
why, yes. there are two three
crackerjacks which come onto Jersey S
| feeding ground every night but they'r re
| like all the rest of the big ones, they don t
get there generally until it's too late to see

| IT can get one IL ] see him. I'll be out
at daylight in the morning and see what
can do.

| Long before daylight a short, sturdy
| figure left the West Pass Gate and struck

Sunset Ridge. Ii was HINTON on his way to
collect the big wild boar ordered by the
/ superintendent the night before. His can
| vas jacket was buttoned up close to his
chin, his WOODEN cap was pulled down over
| his ears and he wore heavy mittens, for
| it was biting cold On his arm lay a rifle
| easily, as though Ii knew it's place, and in
| his mouth he carried a short down curved
! pipe. He clicked along on his snow shoes
at a rapid gait, and without a pause, for
| he knew the trail day night as he knew
| his own bed room floor. Now and then
| there came to him sounds from the forest :
| the deep-toned hooting of barred owl
from the spruce belt above; the explosive
! snort of white-taiied deer and once with
startling effect a band of elk, whom curios-
| ity had held until the man was within a
/ few yards, crashed away with the sound
| of an avalanche through the crusted snow
| of the woodland.

The Mother Supreme in China.

The Mother Supreme in China.
In speaking of the purpose of China 10
give more attention TO the education of the
women than formerly the ENJOYS said that
they are already better trained than the
western world supposes.
The schools for Chinese girls are of first
quality according to Chinese standards,
quite the equal to the boys schools, at all
events, and perhaps better. The immense
respect shown throughout China to the
mothers of families has been commented
upon by every observer who has written
about China still. it's extent is not under
stood by the outside world. The truth is
that while wives, the status of the Chi
rCse women is unsatisfactory, as mothers
they are supreme; when a Chinese woman
becomes a grandmother she becomes at
the same time a sort of dowager empress
over al her descendants, men well as
women And there Is no doubt whatever
that the millions of mothers and these
"doWager expresses the grandmotherS,
are among the strongest factors in the en-
tire empire in upholding the policy of the
empress for the introduction of real
progress.
An American who has spent many years
in China says that it is not at al unusual
for midd!e-aged mandarin to announce
that he cannot go here or there at a GER
tain time because his mother requires his
presence somewhere else. Nor is the re-
spect to Chinese women confined to that
shown 10 them as mothers. The late Ii
Hung Chang, the most powerful China
man of his day, and one of the greatest
statesmen of any age in the whole world
consulted his wife on all important matters
and it was well known, during his life
time, that she often said the deciding word
when problems of moment were under dis
cusSion.
Dowager's Change of Heart.
OF this lady, who was one of the real
powers in Chinese affairs, it is remem-
bered by Americans of long Chinese resi-
dence that she was always as strongly in
favor of progress as the dowager empress
herself now appears to be, and years in ad-
vance of Isl An. Her present attitude has
apparently been brought about altogether
since Japan.s war with Russia.
1t is true, however, that the dowager en-
press believed that her sisters, the women
of China, should have a better chance IN
life long before then, and that, years be-
fore she gave any signs of which the west
ern world had a hint, she contemplated a
number of measures which would be TO
{ their advantage. One of of them was put
into effect two years ago, when she issued
her famous edct that the feet of the women
should be unbound, that deformed feet
should no longer be considered necessary
How generally this edict has been fol-

countries in the world, women have the
best chance to stand on the same level as
men, the birth of a girl baby is sometimes
re oeived with very Chnese-like sentiments;
and the mere suggestion that woman
could become President would be laughed
at by all except comparative handful OF
extreme radicals.
