A Brave Woman

Mrs. Huges. a lady from st. Joe. who
las been visiting friends in Council Bluffs
for some time, had quite an experience
tuesday evening. She went down to the
cellar after an armful of wood at the house
where she is stopping. In one corner OF
the cellar she saw the outlines of tall
''n in the dusk of the evening and dark
hess of the place, but thinking he was the
man who occupied part of the house, she
'neld her ground and kept cool. When she
started up stairs. however the man fol-
lowed her. and once in the kitchen boldly
temanded something to eat. She informed
MIN that she had nothing in the culinary
line that would appease his appetite. He
then demanded her money. She replied
that he could have that. and walking to
bureau drawer she drew forth a six-shoot-
er and deliberately pointing it at the bold
intruder fired twice. Neither shot had
any perceptible effect, but the man con-
Guided that it would be the better part OF
Ti,ior to slide out and let the lady keep he,
wealth, and he slid accordingly.

readers who have their household pets:
Have large pail or tub filled witt
Warm soapsuds. then spreading the fingers
and palm of the lett hand over the soil II
he pot. turn the branches torsy-turvy il
to the warm soapsu,s, swing the PLAN
biskly in the wnter until every leat has
become perfectly saturated, then put i,
through pail of clean water. and rub
each Leaf with the thumb and finger, Civ.
ing it good shake, and when dry return
it to its window. The leaves Of Il plant
Ire its lungs, each leaf being furnished
with hundreds Of minute pores, whence
the plants breathe in carbon and exllale
oxygen. The perspiration If plants is said
Q be seventeen times that of the human
body. Many plants never bloom on ac-
count OF the accumulation of dust upon
their leaves. A plant too large to be laid
lown in Il tub, as above described. may b.
syringed and each leaf rubbed clean with
he thumb and finger. which are better for
his purpose than brush or cloth.

At the Golden Gate.
a man in Chicago died one day
And journied toward the skies,
But he found it rather a weary way
His feet were Of such size
And when st. Peter surveyed him o'er,
He murmured in accents sweet,
''I'm afraid he'll never get in this door,
Unless he trims down his feet''
