HUNT PAINTERS WITH DOGS
Good Hound With Lots of Pluck Nee essary to Success in This
 Sport

Vancouver island harbors a large number of partners. but it is neces- sary to have a good hound with a lot of pluck in him to hunt them. so we were very lucky to engage a man with couple of fine dogs, both very keen. We got our first cougar without any special incident; but not so our sec ond.. Near Salmon river. which is south of Alert bay. is one of the best places for partners. and there is also magnificent duck shooting to be had there. Four of us had taken our 12- bore shotguns and gone of after some duck. When we set out one of the hounds followed us, and as he was a great favorite we did not send him back. We had some fair sport with the duck, although we shot very bad ly, and started back with more than enough to carry Half way back to camp Bellman. the hound. gave tongue and went off at a tremendous rate.
 By love, there may be some pan thers about" said, and the words were hardly out of my mouth when, as we mounted the crest, we saw not one but a couple of partners Evi- dently they thought there was safety in numbers, for they crouched close to the ground, about twenty yards apart, waiting for BeIlman, who was still fol lowing his nose. to come up with them. In a minute he rounded a small rock and came from scent to view. Meanwhile we were all four running toward the partners as hard as we could go, forgetting that we only had duck shot to defend ourselves with.
 That dog was the pluckfest animal I have ever seen- He went straight for the nearest panther, which evi- dently completely upset all its precon- ceived ideas. for it turned tail and fed.
 But the second was made of stern CT stuff With a bound it was on the hounds back, and then the two be- came so tangled up that we could hardly distinguish one from the other Bingham, who was one of the duck shooters, had outrun the rest of us, and when he came up to the two ami mals, fighting for their lives, he man. aged to put the barrel of his gun right against the panther's head and pull the trigger. Poor BelIman, however, was mortally wounded and died few minutes afterEards.-Wide World

NOW FEEDING IRON TO HENS
In View of Eggs Being Sold by Weight Farmers Evolve a Great
 Plan.

WinsteG, Conn.-Not since the day. when the good people of Connecticut sold wooden nutmegs to their neigh bors from New York have the farmers of this district been more exercised than they are now over the ultimatum of the Bureau of Weights and Meas ures of New York City that eggs shall be sold hereafter by the pound. The poultry raisers and fanciers of Win sted and the surrounding country have formed Committee of Weighs and Means" to evolve some measures by which hen fruit shall not depreciate in value because of this novel proposi- ton.
 Chemists and biologists have been engaged to study the question and formulate some food preparation that shall outwit the weight scheme Their report has not yet been received, but in the meantime all sorts of expe- idents are being tried. Axel Regner Is feeding iron filings with corn to his poultry, and R. O. Peck has substitut- ed dog biscuit for grain. Wilson D. Wyant, who holds the record for the local egg market, says he feeds his hens on trout liver, but his is dis. counted like all other fish stories

DEVELOPING LOVE OF ART Have Children During Their School days Acquire the Habit of Visit
 Ing Picture Galleries.

{ A small lassie was conducted by her mother on tour of the Layton gallery and the established etiquette for art galleries in general was being includ- ed as a part of her instruction for the day. Standing before a particularly prosaic-looking canvas, she found 1t convenient to divert her mind by utilizing the brass railing as trap eze-thsreby developing the muscles of her back and arms.
 What are you doing?" the fond mother inquired. Do you think this is a gymnasium? You don't come to an art gallery to swing on a railing. You come to look at the pictures. Stand up there, if you want to come again." The implied threat as a finality was effective so far that there was no question in the onlooker's mind as to the treat the little lady evident ly regarded visit to the gallery. That is the great point-to have children during their schooldays acquire the habit of visiting picture galleries. Then 1t will be but a matter of time for the development of discriminative appreciation. That and real affection for the truly beautiful will follow log ically.

post as Q1Q SIT C'narleS f1arQlnSe lrOIn the embassy at St. Petersburg.
 The post of permanent under sec retary at the foreign office is the most important in British diplomacy. for this official has the virtual direc- tion of all the ambassadors and min isters abroad. Of course the secre- tary of state for foreign affairs-at present Sir Edward Grey-is his nominal chief, but the permanent of ficial is the man who really does the work. He it is who is responsible for maintaining the continuity of British foreign policy in spite of the changes of party fortunes which displace his temporary chiefs and while a new for eign secretary is learning his busi- ness the permanent under-secretary's power is practically unlimited.
 Sir Arthur Nicolson has had a dis tinguished career as diplomat. He entered the foreign office in 1870 and remained there in various minor ca pacities for four years. He was as sistant private secretary to Earl Gran vile. when that nobleman was foreign minister from 1872 to 1874, and in the latter year he entered the diplomatic service as third secretary to the em- bassy at Berlin. After that he served with the embassies at Peking Con- stantinople, Teheran and Athens, and in 1888 he was appointed consul gen. eral at Budapest. where he remained until 1893, when he returned to Con- stantinople as secretary to the em- bassy. After that he was agent in Bulgaria. minister in Morocco and ambassador at Madrid. In 1905 he be- came ambassador at St. Petersburg.
 Sir Arthur is entitled to write lot of letters after his name. In addition to being a privy councillor he is G.C.B., G.C.M.G., G.C.V.O. K.C.B., KCIE.. and a KC.V.O.-all these let ters representing honors conferred on him by his sovereign. He is also a baronet, the eleve4th of his line, and no doubt before long he will become

ford, Ind. 56 years ago, and quit school at 15. In '69 the family moved to Saginaw, and young Joseph began his business career as grocer's deliv- cry boy.
 The winter he was 16 he went to one of the northern Michigan lum- Der camps as chore boy. For nine winters he followed" the woods, handling the peavey and swinging the ax on the giant pines.
 Young Joseph was ambitious. In- stead of spending his earnings in a months riotous living when the drive was over, he saved his hard won dol lars and stayed in the woods during their plans for the next winters cut ting. In the picturesque vernacular of the camps, he became a timber cruiser" or Hand locker" He was a good story teller and a mixer He had the robust temper of his grand father Fordney. hot-headed German who left his beloved Rhine to fight for the cause of American freedom in the American revolution; but he kept it under control.
 The hard-headed old chaps who were ptting money into Michigan pine were attracted by Fordney. They learn ed to appreciate not only his rollick- ing stories and merry laugh, but his skill and sound judgment as well. They took him up-the rest was easy. In few years he was a millionaire and in congress.
 Sugar Beet Joe" is his nickname in the halls of legislation. This is because of his devotion to that saccha- rine root which is the fetich of the Michigan farmer

AS TOLD IN PLAIN ENGLISH
Real Truth About Young Man With "ExceIsior" Banner, and That
 Lamb of Mary's.

Excelsior" is poem about a young man who walked one winter evening through a village in the Alps. The hotel keeper stood in his door and told him the rooms were all taken, but anyhow the young man knew he didn't have enough money for tips. So he went on. He carried a banner reading Excelsior" One theory is that he was a drummer for an upholstery house and the other is that he was a demented breakfast food inventor. He was found next morning near the top of the noun tain and his relatives were notified.
 Mary had a lamb that she spoiled by overlooking and cuddling. She took it to school with her one day and the lamb bothered the spelling class, so the teacher kicked it out of the front door. Not having any sense of direction, it blatted around the schoolyard until finally the teacher sent Mary home with it and told her if she ever brought it again there would be trouble. Next spring Ma ry's father sold the lamb on the ris- ang market.

O1 lOOQ. III m9Qlum-SlZeQ clIleS IL has become almost a rule for the head of family to consider that one-fourth of his income must go for rent, un- less he is one of the comparatively limited number owning their own homes. Thus the mechanic who earns $14 to S20 week figures on pay ing about that amount per month for his fiat. The man whose pay envel ope contains $25 to $35 weekly will pay at least the smaller of these sums every month in rent and the S5, ,000 a year man will put up some where in the neighborhoo6 of S1.OO0 in payment for his apartments. But when we come to consider the case of a woman who pays s25,000 a year for her hotel rooms alone, even when she is not using them for months at a time, we reach a financial stratum where money is no object and where the income is so large as to leave the possessor free from all bonds of econ omy.
 This is the case of the Princess -Parlaghy, a Hungarian, who prefers New York as a residence She came to America some time ago for the purpose of painting the portraits Of few of our leading men-not for remuneration, but that she might add them to her private collection-and she has become so in love with the Ameri- can metropolis that she proposes to make it her real home. She has apart ments in one of the leading hotels and before sailing for Europe the other day signed lease for three years at the rate of S25,000 year. The suite for which the princess pays this fortune yearly in rent consists of r rooms on the third floor and include a pri- yate conservatory. For the annual e2s GOO she receives nothing but the -se of the rooms, paying extra 7

Too Quick With seorn.

{ That marvellous story of the British expedition to New Guinea, with it's discovery of new pygmy race, re minds writer that in the past stay-at- home people have sometimes erred in treating travellers tales with scorn. There was, for instance, the descrip- tion by James Bruce in 1770 of the barbarous Abyssinian custom of eat ing raw meat cut from the living ani- nal which was ridiculed by everybody. Yet Bruce has even recently been proved right When Paul Du Chaillu explored equatorial Africa in 1861 and described the wonderful gorillas and also the nation of dwarfs there he was discredited none too politely by the British Royal Geographical society. Yet subsequent explorers amply vindi. cated his veracity.

On cofno to Sleep.

How do we go to sleep? How does Mother Nature charm away our con- sciousness? First of all, she throws her spell on those centres of our bod ies that preside over the muscular sys- tenn, causing one group of muscles after another gradually to collapse. Thereafter, various powers of mind succumb in regular order. First, we lose attention and judgement Then memory goes, and imagination wan ders away in reveries of its own. Ideas of time and space cease to control thought as gentle sleep-the nurse of our life-draws nearer Then comes the turn of the special senses. begin. ming with sight-eyelids close and eyeballs turn upward and inward, as if to shut out all light, the pupils con- tracting more and more as slumber steals over us- The power of hearing fades away The heart beats and breath is drawn more and more slow ". Temperature falls by perhaps two degrees, and the body loses three times less heat than when awake.

mer was a fluid of which a few droS would renew youth, enabling its pos sessor, no matter how old and wrin- kled he might have grown by reason of years of labor, to become Prince Charming, to realize the supposed fe- licity of the Oriental salutation, and Tive forever" Without the philoso- pher's stone, there might come times when living would be bore because of poverty; but with the philosophers stone one could command infinite riches, for the philosophers stone was supposed to have the power of trans muting the base of metals to gold.
 Until recently modern science, while not denying indebtedness to the labors of the alchemists, has referred to their two chief quests with ridicule. A few years ago, however, Doctor Brown-Se- quard, one of the most scientific physi- clans of Paris, devoted himself to re- searches for an elixir of life and found in a preparation of goats lymph prop critics which encouraged him to believe that he was on the track of the elixir. He was an old man at the time, and died in 1894 at the advanced age of S6. However, the fact that a scientist of Brown-SeQuard's repute would give himself seriously to this department of research had some influence in re- lieying one activity of the old alchem- ists from utter discredit. Later, in Paris, also, came the wonderful dis coveries of the Curies regarding ra- dium and helium giving rise to specu- lations which in the minds of many shook the foundations of the long es- tablished theory of irreducible chemi- cal elements. If that theory is ground less-if what the chemists for more than a century have believed to be fixed elements are not stable but may under certain conditions be converted into others-al that is necessary is to ascertain and produce these condi- tions and change copper into silver or lead into gold at will.
 Mime. Curie does not claim to have worked either of these wonders. Neith- CT does Dr. William T. Wyckoff, the Philadelphia dentist whose portrait appears herewith. But Dr. Wyckoff, it is asserted, has devised a means by which he can make at cost of 50 cents a pound an untarnishable metal that is as ductile as gold and that is claimed to be as good as gold for filling teeth

 What" said Alphonso, for the third time, lis Arabella doing?"
 She is looking out of the window. " replied the medium, evidently expect ing somebody"
 That is strange said Alphonso Whom can she expect?'
