Keeping It Properly Balanced la a D f

An aeroplane may Ie defined as a
i surface propelled hori.outally in such
a manner that trie resulting pressure
ofalr from beneath prevents its fall

aeroplane must ) kept in amtioti if
it is to remain in tlie air Such a plane
literally runs on t lie air like a (Mtttter
gliding over thin ice. The most fa
miliar example of au aeroplane Is the
kite of our hoyhood days. We all re-
memlter how we kept it aloft even In
a light breeze by running with li
against the wind. Substitute the uif)
of a propeller for the cord and the
aeroplane flying machine is created
If this were all. the problem of art!
flcial flight would have been solved Ion?
ago. There remains the supremely
difficult art of balancing the plane so
that It will skats on an even keel.
Even binls find it hard to tnstntain
this stability. In the constant effort
to steady himself a hawk sways from
sids to side ss be soars like an acro-
bat on a tight rope. Occasionally a
bird will catch the wind on the top
of bis wing with the result that he
will capsize and fall some distance t
fore he cau recover himself. If the
living aeroplanes of nature find the
feat of balancing so difficult. Is it any
wonder that men have been killed in
endeavoring to discover their secret?
If you have ever sailed a canoe you
will readily understand what this tn
of balancing an aeroplane really means
As the pressure of the wind on your-
sail heels your canoe over you must
climb out on the outrtgter far enough
for your weight to counterbalance the

WOLVES FEAR IRON.
A Piece of the Metal Will Keep the
Animals From Any Carcass.
In the early days wolves were cot
paratively unsuspicious and it was
easy .to trap or poison them Then
new knowledge a lietter comprehei
sion of the modern dangers seemed t
spread among the wolves. They learn
ed how to detect and defy the trap
nd poison and in some way the
knowledge was passed from one to an
other till all wolves were fully pus
sessed of the information. How tin-
is' done is not easy to say. It is easiei
to PfOTO that It is done. Tew wolves
ever get Into a trap fewer still get into
a trap and out again and thus they
learn that a steel trap is a thing to In
feared. And yet all wolves have the
knowledge as every trapper knows
and since they could not get it at first
hand they must have got it second
hand that is the information was
communicated to them by otbera or
their kind.
It is well known among hunters taut
a piece of Iron is enough to protect any
carcase from the wolves. If a deer
or antelope baa been shot and is to be
left OUt overnight all that hi needed
for Its protection is an old horseshoe
a spur or aven any part of the hunt-
er's dress. No wolf will go near such
suspicions looking or human tainted
things. They will starve rather than
approach the carcass so guarded.
With poison a similar change has
come about. Strychnine was consid-
ered iufallible when first It was intro
duced. It did vast destruction for a
time; then the wolves seemed to dis-
cover the danger of that particulai
smell and would no longer take the
poisoned bait as I know from uumlxT
less experiences.
It is thumugblj well known ijDOUg
the cattlemen now that the only chance
of poisoning wolves Is In the late suin
mer and early autumn when the joong

She cannot watch over all of them the
