A few of the pack pounced upon the
dead wolf, while the rest came on. The
official fired the six shots at intervals,
with each shot killing a wolf. and
when he had done this he had finish
ed his defense. The party were at the
mercy of the wolves. Though the
horses were tearing along at frantic
speed, the wolves were drawing near
er every moment. When they had
come to a distance Of about fifty feet

She threw the ball deliberately. and
1t came down near the center of the
pack. There was a flash, an explosion,
and where the wolves had been was a
vacant spot around which carcasses and
bits OF cas- were spread on the
snow as If buttered with a huge knife.
A few lay moaning In agony, while a
few more limped or dragged themselves
away.
The party had been saved.
All turned to the stranger girl, the
bride and her girl companions throw
ing their arms about her, the men seiz-
ing her hands and covering them with
kisses. Then when they had given
full expression to their gratitude they
turned to the government official, who
sat mute.

Advice to the Employees.

If you don't like the way the boss
runs the shop then quit, but while
your salary comes from him be true
to him and swear by him and all that
he does and you will win in the long
run. If you have something to say
about the way the business Is run that
you think could be improved don't tell
your boss competitors, but tell him.
and it K likely that he will see that
you take an interest in the business
and give you an increase.

a s a result of the discussion
aroused by Andrew C~arnegie's
~ offer to pension ex-presidents
and their widows q movement
was inaugurated to avoid the need Of
the pension for retired presidents by
making them permanent represents
tives at large with seats In the house.
Representative Albert s. Burleson Of
Texas, who has been mentioned for
secretary of agriculture in the Wilson
cabinet. drafted a provision which be
tried to induce the committee on APP
preparations to insert in the legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation
bill.
His proposed provision is as follows:
Hereafter every ex-president of the
United States shall during his life be
held and regarded as a representative
at large of the people Of the United
States and shall be entitled to the priv
iIege of the floor of the house Of repre-
sentatives with all the rights of mem
bers Of the house Of representatives,
save that Of voting, and shall receive
for his services an annual salary Of
$4,000 provided that no obligation to
serve on committees Of the house shall
be imposed upon such representative"
The suggestion that the United
States should pay a permanent pension
TO its ex-presidents," said Mr.. Burieson,
''smacks too much of monarchical In
s~tttutdons. An abdicated king is gen.
orally pensioned, but a pensioned ex-
president seems a contradiction In
terms. And the plan Of Senator Nc
Cumber to pay them $4,000 a year as
retired commanders in chief Of the
army and navy stresses too much their
military functions. My plan stresses
the civil aspects of the presidential
Office"
To give the proposed representatives
at large" votes in the house would, Of
course. require a constitutional amend /
ment, but such IN amendment. in Mr..
Burleson's opinion, Will be unnecessary
for his plan. The constitution provides
that 'the house of representatives shall
be composed of members chosen every
second year by the people of the sew
eral states" but that section has not
been construed as preventing the seat
ing Of territorial delegates and the
resident commissioners from Porto
Rico and the Philippines.
