c. A. Windau, Moline jeweler, be-
lieEes he has q big thing. Workers
in metal have long been wanting 3
solder with which to join pieces of
aluminium, and no such successful
solder has been heard of till Mr.. Win
dau has invented it. Better still he
makes it himself readily. and he says
that the secret of its composition will
remain with him as long as he desires
to keep it. He says it cannot be
analysed and duplicated. A great
deal depends on the manner Of its ap-
plication, but of this he makes no Sc
cret. He shows how the thing is
done wherever he sells q piece of sold
er. The heated pieces of aluminium
to be Joined are treated to coating
of grease and beeswax, preventing OK
idization and facilitating the juncture.
When soldered the pieces of aluminium
are as solidly put together as If
originally in one piece.

on a game on Market square where
several games were run for a short

He did not complain about the money
lost, but wanted the police to help
him finish the game.

bar in her husband saloon on Ninth

apparently one-armed stranger who
wanted a $40 bill in exchange for
some silver. AS he produced an en-
velope and claimed to want to send
the bill away, Mrs. Hepler sealed it
up for him. Then the change was
found little shy, and while Mrs.
Hepler hunted under the bar for the
balance the stranger changed envet-
opes. Failing in her quest she was
given the envelope to keep while the
stranger went out to borrow the bal
ance. When Mrs. Hepler finally
opened the envelope she found it con-

his own person that save in the bosom
of his family he was seldom heaerd to re-

Even his personal dignity was not al

on teh occasion of a rapid encounter with
a goat, which resulted in precipitate ac-
ton on the judges part, his face sus-
tanned considerable damage.
The morning after the affair he APP
peared in the court room, and the pecu-
liar hue of his forehead, cheeks nose
led to many inquiries. At the earliest OPP
portunity the judge explained matters.

drama are over, so far as the great
majority Of people are concerned. What
most people who go to the theater want

placed pom the American stage, and
for this reason it las remained there
