The change of the name OF
Washington, Yolo county, to Ber-
uck, is the result OF a Joke. A list
OF new names was sent to the Post
al authorities TO CHOOSE from, and
some wag added "Boruck" to the
paper. The Postal Department
probably selected it because of its
si,,gularity. as the Departments
aim is to avoid as far as possible
the application OF one and the same
name to any different postoffices.
from this point OF view Beruck is
q perfect designation.

The effort now being made by
the Legislature to PRINT the text

succeed.
Nevada has a well equipped State
Printing Office and could easily sup

less cost.
This would work double beneht.
It would keep a number OF men and
women employ all the year round

has been on its throat for some
years past.

moi uncommon to see them of checked

are large muslin h~andkerchiefs with
fancy borders in colors to match the
leading patterns in tennis suitings.
Handkerchiefs for such use require to
be large and useful rather than dainty

blouses of another or both alike, or skirt
can be of flannel and blouse of silk. The
best rule is to choose plain, neat styles
and leave the blazing blazers to the I'M

The business of inventor pays n smaller
average profit than any other business in
this country, because there are so many
failures TO one success. But the inventor
of the Hoe printing press made $500, 900.
Thomas Silverman, n poor mechanic,
made $40, 900 from copper toed shoes for
children. The horseshoer, Henry Bur
den, made 5000. 900 from his manufact-
ured horse shoes. The inventor of the
photographic pen has made 81, 900, 900.
Edison has made 81, 900, 900. and his in
ventions have benefited the world ten
times us much.
A good many know that Thomas JEFF
