Employ the services Of some reli-
able man who has made a special
study Of market prices Of logs and
lumber. The saving gained thereby,
unless the owner has had much expe-
rience along that line, may amount
to from 10 to 40 times the cost of
the examination.
Get into touch, through correspond

awaken competition among as many
prospective purchasers as possible.
A live effort along this line will often

Find Skeletons of

Toronto.-From the rocky
tombs In which they have been
preserved since prehistoric days,
the skeletons of four huge dino
saurs, those gigantic and mys-
terious creatures that roamed
the plains Of this continent some
millions Of years ago, have been
disinterred by a party Of scien-
lists and will shortly be installed
in the Royal Ontario museum.
The find was made near Paricia,
Alberta. by a party sent out from
the museum, and included two
practically complete skeletons OF
the duck-billed dinosaurs and
two incomplete specimens. The
skeleton of the larger Of the two
complete specimens measured
about 81 feet In length.

hunter and the literature of the chase
Is almost endless. Not all lion
hunters are strictly truthful. however.
For instance, in remote African
village" says the writer, II once came
across deeply tanned prospector-
hunter, who swore that his favorite
method Of hunting lions was to get the
animals to sneeze themselves to death.
1T is quite simple he said. In
lion country you build little arch of
stone, just big enough to allow the
Hon to enter with comfort. But you
must take care to build 1t of jagged
stones and to see that the center stone
OF the arch is particularly jagged
one.
Then you go out and shoot zebra
or some other toOthsome creature from
the lions point Of view. You drag the
corpse under the arch, pepper II
heavily and then retire to your tent
to sleep.
Sneexes Self to Death.
SIN the night the lion comes,
creeps under the arch to his feast, gets
his nose filled with pepper, and has an
overpowering inclination to sneeze. He
sneezes, and In the act throws up his
head and dashes his brains out on the
center Jagged stone of your arch
II do not vouch for the truth of
that story"
A party of men trekking in Rhodesia
In an OK wagon heard commotion
one night among their tethered oxen,
and rushing toward the spot pumped
about dozen shots into the heaving
mass from distance of, say, forty
yards.
The mass diminished, and they adj
vanced to find one of their oxen hor-
ribly mauled by lions.
They "dosed" the corpse with strych-
nine and retired to their camp. They
heard the lions busy ut the carcass
all night, and in the morning they
found that the dead OK had practically
disappeared, but lying near the spot
were five full grown Iions--two males
and three females-all poisoned.
That was very considerable bag
got by Legitimate means, but here
Is the true story Of better bag got
legitimately. Incidentally, II is a very
interesting example of sportsmen's
luck:
When the late President Roosevelt
and his son Kermit went to British
East Africa. in 1909. they were ac-
companied on their hunting trip by
the late F. O. Selous. one Of the
greatest hunters that ever lived.
