Not Looking for Millions.

The head of large concern er-
gagged in the manufacture of various
kinds of machinery, and especially
that which Is used in equipping plants,
has letter from business CORES
pondent which he prizes very highly.
1t came in response to an estimate
submitted as to the cost of an equip
ment for saw mill. The man had
written to the house stating that he
wanted to set up saw mill and ask
ed how much it would cost to supply
1t with the necessary machinery. This
was right in line with the business
of the house and after careful esti-
mate a modest total was reached of
$4,000, and the man was informed
that 1t would require at least that
amount to give him what he ought to
have. The response received by tho
firm was brief and to the point. IF
I had $4,000, what In thunder would
I want with a saw mill?"

DAMAGE DONE BY WOLVES.
Ranchmen Suffer Heavily From Dep.
relations of Animals.

Vernon Bailey, of the forest reserve
bureau at Washington, who has been
making an investigation of the raw.
ages of wolves on the ranches Of the
southwest, reports that in a certain
part Of New Mexico he learned that
moderate estimate of the stock killed
by four wolves Of which he got trace
was a yearling Gov or a calf every
three days, or approximately 100 head
Of cattle to each wolf. Counting all
as calves" says Mr.. Bailey, at the
low rate of $40 head, each wolf
would at this rate cost the ranchmen
81, 900 year. This estimate Of $4,000
for the four wolves leaves out Of con-
sideration the five to ten hungry on
spring of each pair, which begin to
kill stock for themselves in the fall
and continue to do SO as long as they
live"

other aquatic sports, was overcome
with emotion at the enthusiastic re.

and the Amherst-Princeton football

lake was loudly cheered in appreca-
ton of his gift to Princeton.
The regatta was success. In the
main event the four class crews raced
neck and neck for two miles. and it
was only by half length that the
sophomores won out. The juniors fin

Little Miss Carnegie started the race
by pulling the whistle cord on the

Mrs. Carnegie and party viewed the re-

who rowed the cockswain boat were
given handicap of about five lengths
over the Juniors and seniors, who pull

overcame this lead In the first mile,
and it was nip and tuck to the finish.
About 1900 persons witnessed the

In regard to the possibilities of ones

The Time Required to
Learn Dancing.

Questions are usually asked the in
structor by the applicant for lessons
such as:
DO you suppose l can learn to
dance?'
How long will it take me to learn -
do you suppose will ever make a
graceful dancer?" etc. etc.
These questions of course are natu-
ral as some believe that dancing is
far more difficult than what it really
is. The movements are simple, but
like everything else, requires practice
to be executed in time and with ease.
will endeaver to answer few of
these accustomed questions.
In the first place, the learners must
consider that their poor feet have been
sadly neglected prior to the considera-
ton of the dancing lesson and that
they have simply carried their weight
with an ordinary walking step, requir-
ing only certain action far below the
tempo required for dancing, and
| furthermore that every person is
constituted one-sided In explanation
of this assertion will say that right
predominates. meaning that one will
use the right hand in preference to
left. or right foot the same and in
turning around, will invariably turn
to the right. This fact being con
ceded, | must give dancing lessons
credit for improving every person
physically in this direction as well as
many other ways, too numerous to
mention.
For reasons mentioned it is impos-
sible for any instructor to advise "a
person as TO the exact time it will re-
quire to accomplish dancing to the de-
