There's s little of what might be called poetic license In the picture, which improves It from the dramatic viewpoint. When you read the Plain, •tralghtforward story of the picture, ns told by Director J. D. Figgins of the Colorado Museum of Natural History nt Denver, you will see. how the artist ■ned this license. As to the details of the painting, they are the real thing and no mistake. TYie grizzly was a leal grizzly; his mounted skin is now te the museum. The dogs were real dog*.

A western man—his name is pnrpoaely omitted—once killed three fnll-growp griz zlles in about 80 seconds with three shots; he doesn't dare print the story. One room interesting feature about the grizzly is Ms Individuality. Grizzlies seem to be even more individual than men. For example, there Is the career of “Old Moae.” which is a Colo-

rado classic.

absorbing "local color."

The grizzly is worthy of the best ef-

fort of |h® best artist. He is the “King of the Wilds” on the American continent. Enos Mills, wbaae exhaustive work on the grizzly to to he published this spring, says this royal animal excels all others la brain*; he

Mr. Mills shonld know something about grigs'if*; he captured os cub* and brought up Johnny and Jennie, the two enormous grizzlies in the Denver

zoo. And he Kindled the grizzly In his

native wilds. The grizzly will soon be wtiurt in continental United States— except in the national porks, which

are « actuaries for wild animal life.

A heavy price was put on the head of Old Mose. Tnipper* and hunters of known skill made a business of trying to win the reward. All attempts to trap him failed. Poison was tried in vain. Three hunters got enough to him to meet death. Old M»»r seemed to have a .keen sense of humor. After he had twen hunted for many years he developed habit of sneaking up on the camp of csrojK-r* and prospectors. Then he would ru«h the camp, roaring and seeming bent on killing everybody In right. There Is no record that be ever attacked anyone at such times. But the stampedes he caused were many ludicrous. Undoubtedly be en-

joyed them.

This sort of thing went on for 85 years. (Nd Mose during that time killed more than WO cattle, to say nothing of colts and other live stock. He killed at least live men. Though forty or more years of age. his fur glossy, his teeth were sound, his bodily powers were undlmlnlshed and he was more rt/bnlng than ever. Finally.

The world wide campaign now being carried <pi by the Rockefeller founcL. Hoc against such universal plagues as yellow fever, h*-okworm, malaria, bubonic plague and tuberculosis has already begun to revolutionize coodlriocs in some of the countries In which the work Is being carried on. Vitality Is Increased. For example, the redaction of the Incidence of the hookworm In Porto Rico and Panama has resulted in an increase of the vitality of the population and stimulated Industrial activity to a degree that has been dearly reflected in increased he vices* activity. The foundation has employed tin most eminent experts tn the world for Its work. General Gorgas Is perhaps

the most pramineBt of them all. having eradicated yellow fever from Cubs, tnnde sanitation for Famuna a model for the world, and carried the medical and surgl'sl work at the United Ststns army to a degree of efficifary never known la any army of the world Wore, during the war. The west coast of S eth America has been sererriy handicapped in its shipping and c-*n me ratal buMneaa by the existence of centers of yellow fever infection in a number of places «d>e«1al]j at Buenaventura, the Pacific port of Colombia, and Guayaquil the OBTclid metropolis and port of Kens dor. A rigid quarantine has had to be maintained at Panama against all these ports of western South America, resulting id much delay to passengers who Im* he held in quarantine at Panam*. until known to be free from Infection; while cargoes have frequently had to be fumigated against mosquitoes and rata, with! much loss of time and money and oc-! caslonal damage to the cargo. Two Difficulties Overcome. j Two difficulties have been in the way of eradicating these diseases from these ports. One ha* been tfce! financial expenses, which would be si heavy charge upon the gov-mmeut* | of the coon trie* involved, and the relative failure of the people at large! to appreciate the aecesMty of im-

proved sanitation.

The Rockefeller fbondatbrn Is helping to solve the first of these dlffirul- J lira, and is indlractty also promoting I the spread of Information among the i people ho as to reduce the IndHTererce on the subject. The benlthfulness of i the Isthmus of Panama has been s good advertisement for sanitation to South American travelers. One of the main difficulties in arousing public sentiment to demand the thoroughgoing climtaatlqn of endemic diseases has bevn the fact that the population of the port, )BT0 *,ed have become more or less Immune through the operation of the nataral
