Do We Want
Il amed?

They are beginning to kick about the
wild animals in the Yellowstone Park.
1t is the poor bears this time. Even
the acting superintendent says they are
worse than nuisance and have endan-
gcred persons camping in the park. By
and-by 1t will be the angry stays. One
by one the beasts that can hurt man
will be pointed at as perils.
We never heard of anybody being SEN
fenced to Yellowstone Park. 1t is u
voluntary trip and one of the most enjoy
able in this or any other country. The
peculiar springs and the geysers are the
chief wonders, but the altitude and the
singularly beautiful scenery contribute
not .little to the attractions of the
place, while we never heard anybody
speak of visit there who did not seem
to consider the wild animals, living there
undisturbed in their natural state, about
as interesting as anything in the whole
layout. 1t is notorious that few places
are more popular than "zoos." The Vel.
lowstone Park is great free.for-all ZOO
without bars and as big as all outdoors.
If they begin by killing off the bears,
where will they end the destruction!
The common report is that the bears are
the most interesting of all the animals.
It is true that they do the garbage
remoYal stunt for the hotels, but that
is the chief show of the whole park.
just at dusk the wagon bears out the
refuse and dumps it in the. usual place,
visitors standing around .at safe dis
tances. When the load is dumped there
is often not a bear in sight. Suddenly
they begin to appear from the woods.

ing trees. II is . great sight and. it g.

the notion of killing of the bears and
necessarily substituting hogs IN. their
places.
Besides the bears there are elks, deer
innumerable and various other interest
ing creatures, including some of the
rarest, like mountain sheep. The noun
tain Hons, which live on the deer and
antelopes, are recognized as destroyers,
and they are systematically slaughtered
in the winters by the guards. But for
the rest It is live and let live, and this
is as 1t should be. Keep the park wild

MAKING OF YokEs.

This Troublesome Accessory Adjusted
In This Wsy.
The making Of Jokes ID not an In
significant matter. 1t Is often a puzzle
even In the sewing room. Theoretically
yokes are nothing but a small piece OF
thin material cut into a straight collar
and a peplum to cover up the bare
space Of the neck; practically they are
a nuisance, breaking UP all theories,
going against all rules and generally
harassing those who make and those
who wear them.
A good, stable, old fashioned yoke
that was cut by q waist pattern and
was sewed in the blouse was not
one-quarter the trouble that these tiny
modern things are. They came through
the universal wearing Of partly low
blousfs, II fashion which Is so insist
{ women follow it In the MAX
heir waists, then prepare q
. to put In when the waist Is
he street on cold days or at
a. when a low blouse is not APP
p%ropriate.
Young girls who have the quality of
youth In their necks can wear the
collarless waist at all hours, but this
freedom does not sit well on every
woman. Age carries a certain degree
of dignity, and the blouse with the low
neck does not look quite well on wo.
men who have arrived at that time Of
dignity.
1t is In Difference to this taste that
the majority of women who have good
necks finish the blouse of with a v In
front and q sailor collar of white or
colored chiffon cloth " a round neck
without a collar and then pr lie
themselves with at least two " o
wear when occasion demands.
1t Is these yokes that have caused all
the trouble. How 70 keep them down,
how to make them smooth, how to
have them cleaned, are a triology OF
questions that women ask each other
whenever they foregather.
Even when an inch OF two of this
yoke shows above the neck Of the
blouse 1t requires as much harness to
keep 1t down as to Keep a horse in the
shafts. This harness method is as fol-
lows: The yoke Is cut to the proper
depth with the collar attached. One
tape is run from the middle of the front
to the waist line and from the
middle of each armhole, front. to the
waist, then two down the back, n on
each side Of the middle, and all Sc
curely sewed to a tight belt made OF
broad tape which hooks at the back.

How many people have eve seen a
baby giraffe? Very few at the best.
In all there have been only four baby
eirares born in the western hemi-
sphere; three Of these were born at the
Cincinnati geological garden. The first
two lived but a short time. but the
third one, which WIS born Sept. 1.
1910, In the Cincinnati garden. Is still
alive and is one of the prettiest little
animals that you might wish to see.
CRATES can utter 30 sound-they are
mutes-bHt the two cid girnffes looked
pa the young n with eyes as full of
expression and appreciation as il they
had human intelligence, and one
scarcely seemed to notice that they
made no sound whatever.
The picture shows the little giraffe
when 1t was two days old. 1t was then
FIVE feet one inch In height and
weighed about ninety pounds. 1t be-
gan to grow right away, 10 that at the
age of about four months 1t measured
six feet six inches. That certainly Is q
marvellous growth, and a boy or girl
who would grow over a foot In four or
five months would be considered a
most unusual phenomenon. When we
stop to think, however, that the old gi-
raffe is almost fourteen feet high and
can reach a foot or two farther by
Strengthening out Its head and neck, II
is easy to see that the baby giraffe has
to do some growing to catch up with

a young lady bookkeeper In Boston
has been in the habit for some time Of

In the old birds nests that are
placed near the ground in shrubs and
small trees close to hazelnut bushes
and bittersweet vines in the country
you viii often find a handful of hazel
nuts or bittersweet berries. They
were put there by the white footed
mice and the meadow mice that visit
these storehouses regularly. A white
footed mouse will often cover a birds
nest with fine dried grass and inner
bark and make a nest for itself.

Little birds have. however, told i'm

Of notes fastened about their legs or

a seagull.
Over twenty years ago a large ocean
steamer, Atlantis, which ran between
Liverpool and Calcutta. WAS lost. No
message was even received from her
but one, and this was found some FIVE
months after she had started on her
last voyage, tied about the neck OF a
seagull In the Indian sea. The note
read: Atlantis struck on the Harad
