COLLIE DOG SAVES BOYS
Charges Hungry Coyotes and Prevents
Death Of Young Master, But 10
Fatally Hurt.

Trinidad, Colo.-Fighting to the
death, a Scotch collie dog saved the
lives of his two masters, Louis and
Samuel Salvorno, ten and twelve years
old, respectively, who were attacked
by three hunger-crazed coyotes on the
snow-clad plains, ten miles southwest
of here.
The boys were badly bitten by the
Infatuated beasts and their clothes
were practically torn to ribbons. The
dog was so badly lacerated it is dying.
The children had been sent to an
uncle's ranch to get provisions. Half
way ever the train they were attacked
by the coyotes. The collie charged
the beasts, killing two and pursuing
the third as it sneaked away. The
dog is terribly torn, and 1t is feared
he will not survive.

DR.. Alexis Carrel Hopes to Graft New

gested to me by Professor De Bove
that such experiments will strike
greatly the public imagination. l have
already established the possibility o.

"a question now raised by Profes-
sor De Bove as to whether these pre-
served germs are capable of fertili-
cation and the reproduction Of spe-
cies."
The experiments, which are TO be on
animals, will begin as soon as Doctor
Carrel reaches New York. If they
succeed along the line suggested by
Il. De Bove science will have attained
an age-long dream of bridging death
with a chain of never-ending life.
Doctor Carrel had gone to Paris
from Stockholm, where he experiment

The Smile.

The girl who smiles too much makes
as great a mistake as she who smiles
too little, for though she may be only
actuated by an honest desire to
please, she lays herself open to the
charge of insincerity A smile can
transform plain face into loneliness,
but it only does this when 1t is the
outcome of some special emotion, and
not mere aimless parting of the lips.
Smiling to order" or on any and
every occasion, is fatal to charm, and
should be carefully avoided.
