thing for Milt that Father Wind

When ne has lived in South Dakota
as long as the rest of US, he'll know
better than to start out with a load
like that.

Rooseveltian policies as firmly as the
Rock Of Ages with nine-tenths Of the
republicans OF the state as sponsors to
the compact.
Senator LaFollette is not In the

Globe Trctter Tells What 4 liit He
Made in Sweden.
Il never properly understood the
value of chestnutS until | tried them
on the people over in Europe" said IA
retired general who had juts returned
from a trOt around the globe. Why,
| made myself an everlasting reputa-
ton for brilliancy by relating over
there some of the jokes so old and
grown they would be received
with groanS here. When | was IN
Sweden it WAS my good fortune TO be
invited to go hunting with the king,
who, in spite of his royalty, is Il very
charming man.
I'VE came in from a long run one
day, hot and tired. Slim glasses hold
ing a cool drink were passed around
l emptied mine in one swallow, and
as l passed it back for more, said:
well, gentlemen, l would not sell my
thirst for $40 4 cry OF delight went
up from all the men in the room. They
repeated it over and over, and now
that venerable joke is the last and
most fashionable slang in Stockholm
And then he went on to tell about
little man who lives in Washington,
but who did not always spend his
summers on the continent or travel
with valet This little man, whose
name is no Smith, has a reverence for
everything new and no reverence for
anything old. They were together in
Genoa. Here said the guide to the
little man who name is not Smith,
here lived the great Christopher Co
Iombo."
who lives here?' asked the little
man whose name is not Smith. Who
lives here?"
''Ze great Christopher Colombo lived
here, sir, re great discoverer of Amer
ique lived here 400 years ago!"
That's all right" said the little
man, but who cares about 400 years
ago? What l want to know is who
lives here now?'

Large kntelopes Easily Run Down /

Large AnteIopes Easily Run Down by
Pack Of These Animals.
A specimen of the Cape hunting dog,
Lycaon pictus, has lately been added
to the menagerie in the London Zoo
logical gardens. 1t is an animal which
does not take kindly to captivity and
the individuals that from time to time
have reached the collection, have ever
been short lived.
This species bears a strong resem-
blance to a hyena, says the RhOdesia
Herald, not only in it's markings, but
in the general appearance. 1t is tall
dog, fairly slim in build, and with long
limbs. The broad and rather fiat head
ends in a short muzzle; the ears are
very large.
The ground color Of the coat, which
is rather scantily haired, is yellowish;
the markings, which are disposed
about the body and limbs in very ir-
regular manner, are short streaks and
blotches of black, white and gray. The
tail is of a fair length, somewhat
thickly haired. and ends in whitlsh
tuft. The muzzle is black, and black
stripe runs down between the eyes.
The Cape hunting dog has wide
range In Africa south and east of the
Sahara Desert 1t is wonderfully
swift-foOted and hunts its prey in reg
ular packs. Large antelopes are easily
run down by these packs and domestic
sheep and cattle need strong protec-
ton against the depredatiOns of the
"hyena dog"
