That the woods of Northern Min- nesota contain wolves which, because of the cold and lack of food, are be- coming unusually bold, is the infor- mation given the International Falls Daily Journal by men from the woods. The Journal says: “A great | many deer are being killed by wolves {in various parts of the county ac- cording to woodsmen who have come {to town during the past- few days. The ravenous animals have become {unusually desperate, evidently due to |the excessively cold weather, and hhay are even invading the premises of the settlers and logging compa- nies. One man, who returned from up the lake Tuesday, said he had wit- nessed an unusually bold attack on |2 big buck by a wolf and that the beast was not in the least intimidat- ed by the presence of several men. He came within a few yards of the onlookers, who happened to be with- out guns, and after showing his teeth and snarling, sling’ away.” An elderly woman, herself an ar- tist and lover of children, set the fashion of making dolls like living children.

USE OF CROSS IN HERALDRY More Than Four Hundred Forms of the Device Are Recognized in That Science. In early pagan days the cross was & symbol of shame and ignominy, and only those deformed or misshapen trees that could be used for no other purpose were formed into crosses. But since the cross has become dear to Christians, says the “Ave Maria,” the most precious woods and metals have been formed into it. To the third century may be traced the custom of making the Sign of the Cross. In the days of Constantine, Christians | painted crosses on the entrances of their houses as a symbol of their | THURSDAY AFTERNOON 2 to 5 O’clock Don’t Play “Hit or Miss” with your eyes!

Its form and meanings in her- aldic designs are many. In fact, over four hundred and seven different forms have been recorded by students of biography and genealogy. In heraldry the cross is formed by two perpendicular and %wo horizontal lines crossing iIn the center of the shield.

The Greek cross has all fcur arms of equal length, while the Latin cross has the earth end longer than the oth- er three arms. The Calvary or Christ. Cross rests upon three steps or de- grees. The Patriarch cross is recog- nized by its double crossbar. The St. Andrew’s cross is an X, in token’ of the form of cross on which that saint suffered martyrdom by having his hands and feet bound to its four arms. The St. Anthony cross s shaped like a T, and has its name from the cross that St. Anthony, ab- bot, wore upon his cloak, though the origin of his cross seems to be Egypt- lan. It is a matter of interest that many American families have the cross as the basic emblem of their escutcheons. Among them are at least five of the presidents. The Garfleld shield has & blue cross in the dexter canton, and the family motto is, “In the cross I conquer.”. The Tyler shield had on it a bar, two crescents and a cross form. The shield of the Adams family was adorned by a large cruciform device. Manchester Cabman Refused to Stand for the 11l Nature of the Famous Judge.

This happened on one occasion in Manches- ter. He and a junior started for an ap- pointment one afternoon when Russell was in a very disagreeable mood. Things had not been going well dur- ing the day. The cabman was a big, powerful, athletic-looking fellow. On approaching the cab, Russell, as was his wont, closely scanned the horse and the man. “Why,” said he, “a big, powerful fellow like you ought not to be driving a cab; you ought to be do- ing something else.” “What the deuce is it to you,” sald the cabman, “what 1 do? Get into the cab, and mind your own business.” | Russell, Barry O’Brien tells us, in his “Life” of the famous judge, read little. He was too much a man of ac- tion to be a man of books, but wherever he went he always carried two books in his bag—Locke “On tha Human Understanding” and the “Imi- tation of Christ.” He liked novels of excitement: “Monte Cristo” was a special favorite. He read Gaboriau’s books, dipped into Tolstoi and Tour- guenieff, and once, when he was ill at Leeds, he got his chief clerk, Mr.' Block, to read the ‘“Adventures of Bherlock Holmes” to him. But Rus- sell made a bad blunder through lack of literary knowledge. On one. occar slon, when he was introduced to Mr, Stanley Weyman, he wished to be clvil to that distinguished author, so he sald: “My young people, Mr. Wey- man, speak constantly of your books; and tell mre I ought to read them. I have read your ‘Prisoner of Zenda' with much pleasure.” “Oh! That's the other man,” sald Stanley Weyman. High Finance. A New York thief chloroforms his victims before he robs them of their money.
