ALWAYS MANS BEST FRIEND

Fisher Ames, not the Revolutionary
hero, but one Of his descendants. once
remarked that a dog is better friend
than a human being. For said he,
"the dog will be at your feet. ready
at any moment to respond to your
mood. while human being will go on
in a hun II you do not respond to his
mood"
Ames bred Airedale ferries and ex-
hibited them in Philadelphia, New
York and Boston. until he won cham
pionship for one of them, and then he
lost interest in the subject. His mood
for dogs passed, but whenever 1t re
turned the dog responded as Though
he had not neglected them for othel
amusements.
The Eskimos have put Ames' re
mark into a proverb based on lonl
experience in the Arctic wilds. The,

The first meeting of the association

theory of a possible error in diet al
though some other causes were sug-
eested by contributors of papers
in previous meetings of the assocla

rich and silky from the prolonged cold.
The lay Of the land was peculiar in
this direction. Johnson had descended
to the trail that ran along the South
Fork valley. The ridge grew steadily
higher, the overhanging banks were
covered with brush. Johnson could
follow Dufour, beneath him, perhaps
three hundred feet beneath him. Tor

sight and yet avoiding discovery.
In his bitterness he gave way to an
impulse springing up in his heart
against his will. He had loved Marie
ever since she was child. Dufour
had stolen her. He would kill Dufour.
None would ever know Of the tragedy
in this desolate region. In a year or
two, when Dufours death had come TO
be accepted, he would go back to
Marie.

at first, grew stronger, until 1t over

TWO on A TRAIL
BY J. r. PETERS.

When johnson reached old Le-
oranges cabin he was just ten min
utes too late. He had Travelled four
hundred miles that spring to WOO Ma
rie Lagrange. His winters catch had
been better than at any time in his
ten years of trapping. He meant to
ask the pretty French girl to come
South and marry him at Winnipeg.
As has been said, he was just ten
minutes too late. Dufour had antici-
pated him by that amount of time. He
had heard that Dufour was ahead OF
him, and, though he had no reason to
suppose that Marie cared for the man.
he had been vaguely uneasy. He had
seen Dufour at last, when he was
within ten miles Of the cabin, and
had spurred his tired horse onward
But when he reached the top Of Birch
Rise, where q few dwarfed trees al
, forded an uncertain cover, he saw
Marie and Dufour standing in front o
the cabin, and he saw Dufour take tn
girl in his arms.
He mounted and rode away, round
ing the ridge and proceeding aimlessl,
along the water hollow. His onl
thought Just then was to get out Q

his disappointment. He offsaddled an
built a little fire in the hollow. H

cunning of the wolf pack, maddened
with hunger in the last days OF winter.
Suddenly, out of nothing, it seemed,
two huge forms leaped toward them.
They fell between Dufour and john

he struck the beast behind the ear. II

OTHER CAPTAINS OF POLICE TO

why the civil service commission re-

Of Congressman Madden, one of the
