THE WILD'S CALL
Detroit News.

The method by which Marquette
County wolf hunter secured $54 in
bounty was to bury a quantity of meat
in the snow of the early winter, and
above the meat TO place traps, which
were also covered by snow in the
regular course of precipitation.
In due time the meat ripened suffic-
iently to give hints of its where
abouts, and was then sought by the
wolves, which, digging downward,
sprung the traps, and-the bounty.
One, more cunning than his fellows,
avoided the trap by tunneling under
it and securing the bait without ex-
changing his hide for it.
The method of catching the wolves
by trapping is fair one, but what
shall be said of the L'Anse man, who,
capturing female wolf, taught her
to become decoy for the gallants of
her tribe? With long chain about
her neck made fast at one end, she
was allowed wide range of captivity.
She sang for company, and when ad-
mirers appeared. flirted desperately
with them.
The wolf slayer took position outside
of his cabin door, in his jaws the stem
of cob pipe. across his knees long
range rifle. A sneaking grey form
from the woods, coquettish saluta-
tion from the captive, the crack of a
rifle aud the whistle of bullet, forg-
ed each link in the chain of tragedy
that placed $175 in the purse of the
cabineer as the profits of few weeks.
The gay deceiver who stood for this
treaohery was a fast friend to her
captor aud seemed to enjoy the havoc
wrought on the chivalry of her race.

ATHENA, ORE, NOV ........6 g, 1906

Those little Yamhill and other
western Oregon hammers are tapping
against the proposed state jute mill at
the Oregon penitentiary. Eastern
Oregon farmers would be benefited
by few cents saved on sacks. This
would never do, you know. Better Ee
safe, SO kill the jute mill proposition
IN the bud; keep the 65 cents per day
each convict earns in the stove found
ry; say nothing about the state not
having to erect buildings for jute
mill; keep it quiet that the state has
its own power for operating the mill !,
sound it good and strong that it will
cost the state $3.50, 900 to establish a
jute mill-but don't bring into the
controversy the $500, 900 tax the people
of Oregon were required to pay that
Portland might gain the benefits from
one-town show; back up the Oregon
ian in its assertion that diversified
farming is taking the place of wheat
raising, and that wheat is sooner or
later to be shipped in bulk, anyway
only be careful not to intimate this
is the case in the valley, where long
ago wheat raising was supplanted by
other crops, for the reason that the
production of wheat was not profit
able; say nothing of the millions of
sacks required for the millions of
bushels of wheat raised in Eastern
Oregon--that would be in favor of the
jute mill, and would help the fellows
up there; hammer away against the
Washington state penitentiary figures
but don't mention the fact that
Washington's next legislature will be
asked for 5000, 900 appropriation for
the enlargement of her jute mill and
last, but not least, bring out tho ham
mers and tap, tap, tap.

THE GIRL OF NINETEEN-sEvEN
Milwaukee News.


A typical girl of 1907 stood inside
of drawing room the other day.
Her hair was parted and allowed to
ripple over her temples. Around her
head were bound two great fiat Dutch
braids SO heavy that they made great
halo around her brow. A great,
beautiful bow of ribbon crowned her
head. The effect was too simple and
too sweet for anything.
The girl of 1907 will be very tall.
She may have to resort to Cnban
heels and to stretching exercises, and
she may want to pile braids on top Of
her hear and to wave her hair high.
She will be tall and she will be slen-
der.
Living skeletons were the fashion
last summer in London. They locke d
healthy and they acted as if happy.
and while they were lean, yet they
were not angular. To attain this
means art was combined with science.
The best professional models are
now taking double set of lessons in
massage. There are two kinds OF
! massage. One kind develops and the
other kind reduces. Women who are
wide awake are practicing both kinds.
1t costs professional model some
thing to live and keep her figure these
days. She must have two sets of
massage operators. She must have
one masseuse who understands the art
of pounding away the flesh and an
other one who understands the art Of
putting it ON.
The girl of 1907 is going to be very
simple. Or she is going to look as
though she wGs very simple. She
must be absolutely perfect in the art
of sweet simplicity. 1t is not a
country girl simplicity, but an artistic
simplicity.

1T is perhaps just as we'll to not
cross the river until we get to it, but
i'll the event that the land embraced
within the big state farm at Union

probably not go at very low figure.

The time has come again when you
must light the fires in your furnace
and set up your heating stoves. How
many people make it habit each fall
to examine their stove pipes and flues
carefully before the first fall fires are
lighted, and then to watch closely the
effectl of these frst fires. Every
householder should do this, wisely
suggests an exchange.

Much of this land would be cheap at
5000 per acre, and If the tract were
cut up into FIVE and ten acre tracts,
it would probably bring more. What
the people Of Union are interested in,
in the event of a sale of this land, is
to have it cut up into small tracts and
sold to small farmers. there should
be family on every five or ten acres
of that land. But it will probably be
time enough to discuss this matter
when it is decided to sell the land"

The appetite of the Salem hog must

How Harry vardon Started in Golf.

TNONN n
Harry Vardon, the English golf eX-
Bert and one Of the best players ever
known. began TO play golf when but
a mere boy. His fondness for the
game did not meet with parental APP
proval. and no money was forthcom-
ing for clubs or balls, so the boy in
terested his fellows in the game. and
they laid out a four-hole links on
some waste land and manufactured
their own clubs.
White marbles had TO serve as
balls, and. as few of them had oppoI-
tunity to play in the daytime, most Of
the games were played when the
moon favored. One of the players
was sent ahead to mark the place
where the balls fell, and then would
return to the tee for his W stroke,
while the Others watched for him.
1t was several years before they
came into the possession of real club
and balls. given them by older coll
ers. for whom they caddied, hut tho
training on the miniature lee with
marbles for balls had given Nardon g
start which at twenty-five made hin
the champion professional player.

Engineers Have Successfully Over.
come Unusual Difficulties.

In the construction OF the Amabele-
Butterworth railway, in Cape Colony,
unusual difficulties had to be sur
mounted. and the result is. from an
engineering point of view, one of the
most remarkable railways in exist
ence. After passing through the kei
hills the line winds round another
hill, snd then. at the lower level,
goes under its own track. This por.
ton of the railway is known as the
spiral" At another point the line
travels along the bank of the Mangulu
river for two miles and then doubles
back for a mile and a half. so that
after covering three and a half miles
the train is really only half a mile %
the good. This section is called the
~''zigzae." and. with the spiral, is
unique in South Africa. All along the
Kei heights the route is through cut
tings or on embankments. Some idea
of its extraordinary character may be
formed from the statement that in
eighteen miles the line falls, or rises
to the extent OF $50 feet.-Pall Mall
