II is high time that another moth
cd of execution was inau gurated
in this country. Hanging" as it
is termed, Is just another name Tor
strangling. You scarcely ever read
of an execution now where the Vie
tim is not subjected to the most
horrible torture. The rope either
slips, is too loag, or the drop Is not
enough. A mode Of execution
where such bungllng work 10 an
evrrytime thing should be replaced
by more humane way. Electric
ity could not possibly be any
wore than the present rope-and-
gallows style of "shuilling Off this
mortal coil"

Young man. How would you
like it If you had to stay in the

How would you like it If every

How would you like 1t if you met
her on the street with her hat cooked

sage meat of every asA-barrel on

How would you like it il she
stood on the street corners, or n

came out?
How would you like it if she
chrcked the handsome walters I'M
