A German Stove.

On going to bed that night we got our
first insight into the mysteries of Ger
man stoves and beds. German rooms,
as all well-regulated foreign rooms are,
are cold in winter. In the corner of our
room stood china or delf-ware concern
which the waiter was pleased to inform
US was stove. 1t was at least seven
feet high, and two feet and a hall
square. The monotony of its white,
glistening, glazed exterior was relieved
BY an attempt to deceive one into the
belief that it was built of separate bricks,
while for ornament it bore around its
top border of impossible raised flow
ers, and half way down one side an
impossible raised angel, with outspread
wings, surrounded by wreath Of inn
possible raised flowers, in much the same
style of art one sees on the old-day tea.
pots in the familiar illustration of "Re-
becca at the Well" Well, the waiter
opened a polished door of sheet brass on
from the floor, and exposed an iron
door, bearing peg, from which
peg depended key. With the
key he unlocked this second door
and brought to view third door OF
UdTIcu IOu. I1c Opcucu Iuc Ulhu uOOI
and we gazed into little chamber about
a foot square. Into this chamber he
put little piece of paper, a small hand
full of wood and still smaller handful
of coal. He touched off the paper,
closed the inner door, and proceeded to
open the windows, for that stoye smoked
most Internally. We went down stairs
until that stove had gotten through with
its smoke. When we went up again the
waiter had shut all three doors not for
getting the middle one, and had left that
little smothered handful of Goals to warm
up that great stove and our great room.
The Germans claim that they get a
maximum amount of heat out of these
stoves with the expenditure of min
imum amount of fuel, and that there
is no danger of fire from them-economy
and safety, two German characteristics.
/ can vouch for the minimum amount
of fuel, but on the question of heat am
inexorably silent They must be safe.
for it is physical impossibility for q
little, smothered fire to get out of a
stove with solid walls half foot thick
and defended by three doors, one of them
locked and the key on the outside

Mans Ingratitude.

This is an ungrateful world to say the
least. A man will act like lunatic when
be has the Itching Piles, and declares that
that he knows he can't live another day,
yet he applies Swayne's Ointment, the in.
tense itchiug is allayed at once, he gets
cured, and goes down to the lodge without
one whit Of gratitude. When asked why
be looks so cheerful, he lodges the ques.
ton BY an indifferent answer. Its just like
q man though, isn't it?

She Changed the Pack.

Some of the old saints who can't hug
the Young girls of Zion in balls, and
who have abOlishedround dances i'm con-
sequence, have now invented new
kind of pedro, which gives them more
of chance. They start card parties
at the evening socials. and whenever
anybody catches anybody else's pedro,
the party winning has the right to kiss
the other five times. The game is
played with an equal division of the
sexes, and it is rare fun for the old
elders of Israel. The other evening
old Bishop - fixed up pack of
cards with nine pedros and started Il
game among some OF the prettiest girls
Of the ward. 1t happened, however,
that the girls anticipated hi. little game
and had pack all ready without any
pedros in. They ruug in the cold deck
on the old fellow and started the game
The old fellow made some big bills,
expecting to capture some pedro>, and
got set back every time. All this
Tine Inc girls Kept eXclaimlng, "Oh,
amt this nice game SO exciting"
After PLAYING an hour the old fellow
didn't see the color of single pedro,
and the glances and eiggles of the girls
caused him to suspect that the daughter
of Zion We're rather getting the best
Of him. He finally got So far off the
board that he was. comparatively speak
ing, out of sight, and finally gave up
the place to a young man who was
seated near by watching the game.
In a twinkling the girls transposed the
packs again, and for the next two
hours the smacks that man won could
be heard all over the room. The old

and is now putting up a.job to find

what the puddlers proposed at their meet
ing on Thursday, compromise on $5.T5-
proposition that should have been made
month ago. When they appoint their
conference committee let it first ascertain
by a comparison of figures whether at
any time previous to the history
of scales the puddlers received
more than $3.50 when iron sold
for two and one-half cents. When that
was in justice entirely too low, let them
deliberate whether or not they have ad-
vanced as rapidly as the times and equity
would permit. If they cannot secure 1915
would it not be policy to drop few cents
lower rather than continue the struggle
indefinitely? No man to-day can predict
the policy of the next administration. 1t
may be one of free trade, and, as conse-
quence, iron would go TO two cents, and
even lower. To provide for such a contin-

scale down to two cents: The scale Of 1867
