suitcase for Hazel!'
And Hazel, aged twelve, just coming
into the house, halted in the hallway,
listened to the conversation, took up
the new suitcase standing there. and
quietly left the place. Nathan Wayne
and his family had met with misfor-
tune, loss and poverty, and he had been
forced to give up their mortgaged
home. A brother of Mrs. Wayne living
in Oklahoma seemed their only refuge.
They had written him and he told Mr..
Wayne that he operated small ranch
near a town site, where he needed
some one to look after the subdividing
and sale of what he owned of the same,
and could find something for his rela-

It was only through the kindly coop

their debts and secure sufficient money
to carry them to their destination.

BEAR STEALS FOOD SUPPLY
of Prospectors and Safely Gets
Away With Grub.

A bear that has educated himself
into all the curves of the art of steal
ing food from prospectors' cabins is
causing a lot of trouble on Cultus
creek, says the Vancouver Sun. He
has cleaned ]. w. Mulholland of 5000
worth of food this season and last,
and Charles o. Woodrow reported that
bruin had climbed more than fifteen
feet up a tree and consumed a three
weeks supply of food that he had
packed in. The loss is much greater
than the value of the food, because
of the labor involved in packing il
up the creek TO the claims.
Bruin is gourmand when it comes
to bacon, and when ne gets a side
purchased at So cents a pound he &C
quires a meal that no one but a mil,
lionaire could pay for very often,
Bruin still owes for it, but there are
limitations that wise as he is in dodg-
ing anyone with a gun he will pay
pretty soon, if the prospectors have to
use hand grenades, a 42-centimeter gun
and chlorine gas to do it.

Ancient Home of the Cimbri.
Jutland was the ancient home of the
warlike Cimbri, a tribe which for II
years kept Rome in a state of panic,

to make it's way across the barrier of
the Alps into northern Italy, antici-

This terrible reverse sent a tremor

Line Grows Active---Allies
In Successful Raids.
YANKEE GUNNERS BUSY
Germans Eager to Learn Our
Strength and Their Planes
Haunt American Front.

Last year the big offensive was be-
gun Feb. 81. The time is nearing for
the spring campaign. Military activ-
ity on both sides is increasing daily.
The British near Epehy and La
Bassee have conducted further in
cursions into the enemy positions in
the latter region, inficting numerous
casualties on their antagonists and
also taking prisoners and machine
guns.
Likewise north Of the Ailette river
and in the Woevre sector, the French
have made successful attacks which
resulted in the capture Of nearly three
hundred prisoners. A somewhat am
bilious attack by the Germans IN the
Verdun sector was put down by the
French with severe casualties.
Between the Americans and the
Germans there is a constant exchange
OF artillery fire and the Americans
continue TO carry out patrolling ma
neuvers toward the enemy trenches.
The Germans evidently are anxious 10
gauge the positions occupied by the
Americans and also to ascertain the
number Of men they are employing,
for daily their aircraft are over the
lines taking photographs and making
observations. Anti-aircraft guns sew
eral times have driven off the enemy.
Although the increase in the activity
along the entire front in France and
Belgium is noticeable, there is no in
dication as TO when the Germans will
begin their much heralded general
offensive. a German captured by
the British says that at least one big
attack is due to begin some time in
March.
Meanwhile large concentrations Of
troops daily are arriving behind the
German line and carrying out prac-
tice maneuverS.

have endeavored TO test the strength
