LITTLE PIGS IN A HOLE.
Strange Subterranean Adventur in Can
ada's Oil Fields.

Several weeks ago, when the Unit
ed Gas & Oil company abandoned a
well on the farm of Adolphus Fox
near Olinda, says the Montreal Star,
a 12-inch hole 45 feet deep was left
exposed. -Four of Mr.. Fox'S pigs
while wandering about in search of a
cool spot, found the openin g and pro-
ceeded to investigate, with theresult
that all fell to the bottom where a
cave had formed owing to the quick
sand caving in, In this small space
45 feet below the earth's surface, two
of the young porkers lived for more
than a month. Mr.. Fox had no hope
of saving them, yet he dropped corn
down the hole every day because he
could hear the pigs grunting. An eff
fort was made to secure the pigswhich
resulted successfully. The hole was
enlarged and, suspended 10y a strong
rome Joe Fox was lowered. The four
pigs were brought to the surface, but
two of them were dead. The other
two soon recovered and are now very
much alive.

W BIBLES IN HOTELS.
Copies Once Found Generally in Bureau

0aiVa
Drawers Now Disappearing.
For the past six months l have
been trying to figure outaquestioDip
morals" said a man of experience to
4 New York Sun reporter. s'Some-
body is on the down grade. Either
the proprietOrs of hotels throughout
the country are becoming demOal-
lzed or their patrons have slipped a
cog, and am trying to find out which
it is.
"Tve been travelling a good part of
the time for the past 80 years, and up
to two years ago | seldom put upat a
hotel where l did not find a Bible
tucked away in the bureau drawer.
But now the Bibles are missing. l
never knew, until the little books be-
came an unknown quantity, how
muoh 1 mad come to depend upon
them as a familiar figure in the ever
changing hotel life of a man on the
road.
81 don't take to myself the credit
Of having read the Book whenever
might and should have read it indeed,
| fear that there are many weeks at a
stretch when | never looked inside of
it, but somehow it gave me a sort of
home-like, comfortable feeling to see
a copy lying around in a strange
house, and for years my first action,
upon being shown into a room, was to
open the top drawer and see if the
Bible was in place. If it was there,
and it usually was, l felt kind Of set
tied for the night; otherwise, I was
lonesome and out ofsorts.
"These Bibles were providedindif-
ferent ways. In some places they
were furnished by the Tract society,
which had obtained permission from
the proprietor to place a Bibleineach
room of his hotel, but in other places
the management took the Initiative
as a stroke of business policy, and saw
to it that the books were distributed
throughout the house.
"Why the Bibles have disappeared
from the hotels is what is pulling
me. Chicago was the first town t
abolish them, 1t gave me quite I
shock when ! stopped at once tn.

That Summer Rug.

In summer rugs the San 70 is
really very little known to most
housewives, yet is very attractive
and inexpensive too. There are
several different colorings, mostly
with a bright center, on which are
two or three characteristic Chinese
figures surrounded by a dark band
like border.
American fiber rugs are really tri-
umphs in their way. They are
woven from one and one-half inch
strips Of tissue paper made into
fiber. The patterns and dyes are
very pleasing, the latter being quite
fast.
The Dhurrie India rug is another
summer friend, whose patterns and
colorings in many cases resemble
our Indian work, Navajo blankets
in particular, only their red is more
magenta where the American red
skins is quite ''frisky." Their
blues and yellows are particularly
good.

Association convened in Ashland
last Saturday morning. AS
usual in the Associations meet

in arriving, so that all of them
did not get to Ashland until late
in the afternoon. However the
day was very pleasantly spent at
the Elk's Hall, which was turned
over to the Association for their
headquarters. The regular pro-
gram took up part of the day.
During the afternoon large
part Of those present attended
the ball game, and were well
satisfied with the way in which
the Ashland team trimmed up
their visitors from Duluth. At
seven o'clock banquet was
spread in the private dining
room of the @. P. restaurant and
fifty covers were laid. Elk
Governor Sam S. F'ifeld, of Ash

AT Valley Forge, VIM L..
Roberts picturesque Colonial drama
which will be seen Wednesday at
the Opera House is said to be at
once dignifed, forceful and logical
drama of the Revolutionary period ;
The scenes are laid in and around
Old Valley Forge and historic Tren-
ton. The love story is wildly told
and punctuated with many stirring
episodes and a series of climaxes
which are said to be, at times, terri
fic in their intensity. The comedy
is wholesome and refreshing being
clean, unoffending wit, and satire
with homely JUNCTION which chases
away care and spontaneously brings
a merry laugh. The cast, produc-
ton and lighting effects have been
spoken of as being absolutely perfect
in their entirely and fitness.
