Coyote Worth Big Money.

If the rancherS and sheep growers
had their wish, there would be no
coyotes in North America. The
ranchers and sheep growers think
that the only thing coyotes were
made for is to kill cattle and sheep.
This is wrong impression. The
coyotes must have some other calling

that the coyote is here to give I'D the
ghost and surrender his pelt to the
| furrier. who by the way, makes good
use Of the good coyote pelt, but has
little use for the poor ones. The
better grades of coyote are being
dressed and dyed and used in imI-
tation of fox, and on acc Junt Of the
great popularity of the animal scarf
coyotes are 10 strong demand and
bringing the highest prices ever
Known. The coyote is the only fur
bearer that can be used 10 imitation
0f fox.
The poorer grades of coyote are
being used for coat Innings, lap robes,
etc. The skin is large and requires
bat little wOrk-it answers the
purpose.
Seventy-1ve per cent of the best
grades of the collection of the COYOTE

Our manufacturers know better how
to use them and our dyers dye them
better than the Europeans We
make better and more attractive
articles out Of coyote than are pro-
duced anywhere. A soft, silky
coyote, dressed and dyed, and made
into an animal scarf can hardly be
distinguished from fox, except by
an expert, so trappers get after the
coyote and trap as many as YOU can,
as the present high price for this
article will pay you well for your
time and efforts.

HEALTH AND HOUSE SCREENS
One Effective Way to Foil the Flies and
Mosquitoes

Oue GHeSbtTe way TO r OIL inc TItee Ano
Mosquitoes.
1t Is a duty to protect the health Of
the home and to fight any peril that
may menace it. You may have doubts
or become discouraged when it comes
to cleaning up and keeping so clean
that yon won't have flies, or when you
try to keep them down by poisoning
or trapping but there's one means of
protecting yourself against flies that is
safe and effective. This is thorough
screening. Doors, windows and porch
es, upstairs and downstairs. should be
thoroughly screened in summer for the
comfort of the home and the health of
the family. Mosquitoes are a health
menace as well as flies, and thorough
screening protects against both.
few years ago screening was con-
sidered almost as ineffective as
means of protecting against flies as
poisoning, disinfecting and a few fee
bic efforts at cleaning up. None of
these metHods prohibited flies They
apparently continued to come in their
usual large number. But the trouble
was we did not know how to properly
use screens. Then only the kitchen
and dining room doors and windows
were screened. while the doors and
windows of the other part of the house
were left unprotected.
Later we found that not only all the
openings to the house must have
screens in them, but that they must
ut and be made ST. fly tight that no fiy
could enter. This was found more eff.
fectiye. But not until the porches were
screened, particularly the back porch,
where most of the food was handled.
did we come to know the real safety
and comfort that lay behind screened
DOORS windows and porches.-Ex-

AmericaniSm
BY Theodore Roosevelt.

HE ,ost nnblic statement read 10 the
American Defense Society on the eye oI ms
death.
There must be no sagglng back
in the fight for Americanism mere
ly because the war is over.
There are plenty OF persons VINO
have already made the assertion
that they believe the American
people have short memory ana
that they intend to revive all the
foreign associations which most
directly interfere with the complete
AUGMENTATION of our people
Our principle in this matter should
be absolutely simple.
In the first place, we should
insist that if the immigrant who
comes here does in good faith be-
come an American and asslmllates
himself to US he shall be treated on
an exact equality with every one
else, for it is an outrage to discrlm-
mate against any such man be
cause of creed or birthplace OF
origin. But this is predicated
upon the mans becoming in very
fact an American, and nothing but
an American.
If he tries to keep segregated
with men of his own origin and
separated from the rest Of America,
then he isn't doing his part as an
American. There can be no divided
allegiance at all.
We have room for but one flag,
the American flag, and this ex-
cludes the red flag, which symbol
ICES all wars against liberty and
civilization just as much as it ex-
cludes any foreign flag of a nation
to which we are hostile. We have
room for but one language here,
and that is the English language,
for we intend 10 see that the cruel
Bile turns our people out as Ameri-
cans, of American nationality anc
not as jewellers in a polyglot board
ing house, and we have room for but
one soul loyalty, and that is loyalty
to the American people.

Advertising isn't an art; it's just APP

there have been created dozens of COM

Remarkably Clever stratagem by
Which Piegan Escaped With His
Booty Of Stolen Ponies.

Among the many interesting stories
mounted police is one that has to do
with the cleverness of an Indian.
One snowy morning band of Crees
awoke to find that about q dozen Of
their ponies had been stolen during the
night. A band to go In pursuit was
Immediately organized, and in the
course of an hour the trail was struck.
The band followed it for thirty miles
or more, till 1t entered a river and
headed for little wooded island.
Smoke was rising from the trees, and
an opening. apparently the mouth Of
a cave. was In plain view. Presently
a Piegan Indian showed himself in
front of the opening. At his heels was
dog.
Pretty soon the dog scented the
Crees, who were lying low, and began
growing and barking. The Piegan look
ed up, glanced about him for moment
and then instantly entered the cave.
Ii: about ten seconds, another Piegan
came round the rocks and also went
in; then another. and another and an
other. The Crees lay silently In the
bushes, counting, till. upward Of fifty
Piegans had come round the rocks and
gone into the cave, and still they kept
coming. Each carried a rifle.
When at last seventy men had disap-
peared in the cave, the superstitious
and cautious .Crees concluded that the
evil spirit had something to do with
1t. So thoroughly were they filed with
this idea that even when reinforce
ments came, which was In a few hours,
they were reluctant to attack the
island.
That night, however. one Cree, less
credulous than the others, crossed over
the Ice to investigate. On>approach-
ing the supposed cave. he found that
It was no cave at all, but simply an
opening leading some ten feet into the
rock, where 1t made turn and came
out on the other side.
There was the remnant of single
camp fire, the ponies were gone and
not an Indian was in sight. The in
genious Piegan thief, by making the
circuit of the passage, and the end of
the island seventy times, had so de-
ceived his pursuers as to gain the
time necessary for his escape.

Want to Rent Old CASTER

If anybody wants to buy a ruined
castle, described as "of great histor-
ical and romantic history" now is their
chance, according to advertisements in
serted In the British papers.
1t is not exactly modern. dating, as
1t does, from 1906, and the advertiser
states that considerable outlay will
be required to reconstruct it." The
purchaser is assured. however. that it
reconstructed, "a unique and charming
home would result"
Nothing Is said about ghosts. but 1t
stands to reason that a castle of this
age must have large and lively flock
OF such insects. So here's a chance FOX
some of Americas millionaires to &C
quire at small cost a castle-and all
that goes with 1t.
An added inducement is that there is
good trout fishing near by, SO that
when tired of gazing at his unique and
charming home the purchaser can rest
his mind by going fishing.

A Bachelors Complaint.

cannot say that the quarrels OF
men and their wives ever made any
great impression upon me, or had much
tendency to strengthen me In those
anti-social resolutions which took up
long ago upon more substantial consid-
erations. What oftenest offends me
at the house of married persons where
visit. is an error of quite different
descripticn-it is that they are too
loving. Not too loving neither; that
does not explain my meaning. Besides,
why should that offend me? The very
act of separating themselves from the
rest of the world, to have the fuller
enjoyment Of each others society, i'm
plies that they prefer one another to
all the world. But what / complain
Of is, that they carry this preference
so undisguisedly, they perk it up In the
faces Of us single people so shameless
ly, you cannot be in their company a
moment without being made to feel,
by some indirect hint or open avowal
that you are not the object of his pref
erence.-Charles Lamb.
