Wolf Hunters Reap Harvest.

The great demand for furs of all
kinds has brought prosperity to the
fur hunters Of the Western plains,
generally known as "wolfers." Many
of these expert trappers and hunters
have made so much out Of the in
creased prices of furs, in addition to
the bounties paid by States and by
/ stockmen's associations, that they
have been able to purchase ranches
and go into the live stock business
ION their own"
The "wolfer" is a picturesque indi-
vidual. Before the prices of furs
had reached such astounding proper
tons he depended in the main upon
State bounties and contributions made
| by local stock associations.
The "wolfer" is usually some COW.
puncher who has developed a special
aptitude for hunting wild animals. H,
! is dead shot with rife or revolver,
and thinks nothing of crawling into
a VOLTS den with no other weapons
/ than an iron bar and a Ratchet. The
| iron bar is thrust into the VOLTS
mouth, in case of attack, and a blow
with the Ratchet ends the battle. In
fact, the "wolfer" could not use fire.
arms in such place, as the explosion
of rifle or revolver would deafen
him. One of these hunters will work
for days excavating a VOLTS den and,
perhaps, will be rewarded by finding
litter of young wolves, every pup
Ply counting a scalp and also bringing
high price in the fur market.
1t takes clever hunter to get with,
in life shot of wolf, especially on the
open plains. Generally the killing
is done in or near the VOLTS den. The
most effective work is done in the
spring, when the wolf families are at
their largest. A trapper will often re-
frain from killing a big wolf in the
hope of breaking into her den and
getting the puppies.
One wolf will cost a stockman 81 600
year in slaughtered cattle, so the
men in the cattle business find il
cheaper to hire good "wolfers" than
to let Mr.. Lobo run on the range.
When they are hunting the predatory
animals the trappers have an oppor
tunity of catching other fur bearing
creatures. The beaver is about the
only creature that is exempt. There
are strict laws against killing beaver.
and these animals are quite generally
increasing.

The Face in the Glass.

We ought to know our own faces.
every line and feature, every light
and shadow. We see them often
enough in the mirror and surely have
every opportunity to study them care
fully. IL we met ourselves in the
street, we should probably know our
selves, though no doubt the meeting
would bring US a good deal of puzzle
and shock
Yet, in spite of the mirror, it may
be said that in a sense we never really
see ourselves, at any rate rs others
see us. How close and intimate is
our knowledge of the faces Of those
we love! How we follow and STUDY
every little change Of expression
treasure it and mediate on it, carry
1t about with us in silence and dark
ness and absence What strange
CLEANS of joy light those faces, what
sudden gusts of passion and grief pass
over them, what suggestions OF mys-
terry and anxiety and question, d,l re-
hected in them with absolute uncoa-
seriousness, with complete and utter
indifference on the part of the owners
to what they are expressing or how
they express it,
AS we pass through wave after wave
OF the huttering, stormy current of
everyday life just such changes take
place in our own features. What do
we know about them p We see the
face in the glass, the set face, the face
that is seeing itself and is prcoc-
upied for the moment with that see
ing, with no room for all those other
oewlldering emotions and expressions
that do not come at all when they are
sought for and thought about. The
race in the glass is a mask, something
conscious, something artificial, never
the face that our friends study and
love as we love and study theirs.
So il, with the aid OF the glass, we
try to cultivate the amiable, all we get
is a photographs smile, and every
one knows what that is. Yet there are
people who apparently make bust
ness OF it. They study not only their
features but their expressions, en-
deavor to produce in themselves what
charms them in others, seek by prac-
tice to veneer an anxious or sneering
or unkindly soul with charming
countenance and an engaging smile.
They fail, and the result is artifce.
pretense, convention, a vague sense in
the beholder that the smile is not
honest and the countenance not real

pleasant, and that is to feel pleasant

Red Cross Drive a Success

Miss Amelia Hopkins, chairman

Will be no recurrence of the influenza

The cases reported so faithfully from

immunized those who fell victims and
survived, while those not attacked
were not susceptible to the disease al

Widespread and disastrous. But a

We always class children, birds and
flowers together. And why? Be-
cause they should be equally beauti-
full, innocent and happy We should
never rob childhood of its ideal love
illness. Even old people should be
gay, and happy and good; too good to
overcloud the children's horizon with
angry eyes and lowering brows, nor
turn their merriment to discord by
continual fault-fnding. Allow them
all the freedom consistent with abso.
lutte safety. Let them play and be
happy but teach them self-control.
Gods estimate of self-control is this.
He that is slow to anger is better
than the mighty, and he that ruleth
his own spirit, than he that taketh a
city"
