THE M1DDLE-AGED MAN.
course Upon the Subject of
Squeaky Shoes.

This matter may not seem to you"
said the middle-aged man, according
to the New York Sun, lone of grave
Importance, but it appears, neverthe-
less, to be fact that there are, now
adays, not nearly so many squeaky
shoes worn as there were years ago;
there used to be many; now there are
comparatively few. Time and again,
for instance, I have seen walking up
a church aisle, little late perhaps,
and so alone and ali the more con-
spicuous, a man whose boots squeaked
so that the sound of them filed all
the church, and the thoughts of
every worshiper besides. But he
would move noiselessly now.
"Ihere was a time when people
didn't object to squeaky shoes, when,
in fact, they rather liked them. The
squeak proclaimed their degree of
newness, for the newest squeaked
most; and people didn't object to
your knowing that their shoes were
not old and worn out, but new shoes.
They used to put into some shoes in
those days between the inner and the
outer sole a piece of what was called
squeak leather, to make the shoes
squeak the more; but commonly the
squeaking was caused simply by the
chatting of one sole against the other
as the wearer walked. Some of these,
though, were mighty good squeakers.
Later there came time when
squealy shoes found less favor; when,
in fact, there were many people who
preferred that their shoes should not
squeak. This sort of middle period
is marked by the appearance in con-
temporaneous prints of recipes for
stopping or preventing the squeaking
of shoes. One way suggested was to
soak the soles in water; this was said
to be effective, at least as long as the
shoes remained damp; another way
was to drive tack or two or few
pegs through the two soIes so that
they could not rub one against the
other. And from that, in due course,
we rose to the comparatively squeak
less dignity of the present day.
"How this has been accomplished,
whether the squeakng is now special
" guarded against in some manner,
or whether it has been largely eliminat-
ed as one of the results of the vast
ly different modern methods of manu-
facture, or what, [ do not know; but
certain it is that in these days you
don't hear anything like so many
squeaky shoes as you once did,

A NURSES STORY.
a Graduate of Lakeside Hospital,
Lake Geneva, Tells Inter
esting Experience.

Peshtigo. Wis, Feb. Is. 1901. (Spe-
ciaD of the most popular nurses
that ever graduated from the Lakeside
Hospital, Lake Geneva, is Miss Lillian
Dreese, of this place. Miss Dreese is the
Vice Templar of the Independent Order
of Good Templars, and Organist of the
Rebeccas of Peshtigo- During her
twelve years experience as a trained
nurse, she has had many opportunities
for observation, and her opinion in all
medical health matters is held in very
high esteem by the thousands who
have learned to know and love her. In
speaking of her experience she says:
During my twelve years as a trained
nurse, have often observed how many
different physicians give their patients
Dodd's Kidney Pills N cases of Diabetes
and Kidney Trouble. About three years
ago, I myself suffered some months
with weakened and continual con-
gested condition, ard I decided to try
what the Pills would do for me. 1 soon
found that they built up the affected
parts, and restored harmony to the en-
tire system, and although I often lose
much sleep and rest while attending
severe cases, I find that was never in
finer health nor had more endurance
than since have used these marvellous
Pills.
Clergymen say they are good, Sena-
tors and Congressman have added their
evidence as to the wonderful curative
properties of this Medicine, hundreds of
physicians recommend them and use
them in their daily practice. The most
skilled trained nurses advise their use
and use them themselves, while tens of
thousands of sick and suffering peo-
pie are being cured every day by Dodd's
Kidney Pills. They should cure YOU
They will cure you. Try them.

Dyersburg, Tenn, Feb. 19.-An un-
known man broke into the residence
of DIR. Arnold, prominent physician
here, and made his way to the room
of Miss Eliza Arnold and struck her
on the head and side with a Ratchet.
She was so severely injured that she
tainted without seeing the assailant,
who became frightened and fed. Blood
hounds were procured and they fol-
lowed the trail from the young lady's
room to the house of negro named
Fred King, where Ratchet was found
in bureau drawer. King and two
other negroes were arrested but the
latter were released. A mob formed
and would have lynched King but for
the pleadings of DIR. Arnold, who in
sisted upon having better evidence of
guilt
A mob formed and took King from
jail and tried him before a jury Sc
1ected by the mob. He confessed, i'm
plicating several other negroes and
was then hanged. Another negro
named Beebe has been captured
charged with completely in the assault

DEALING WITH CRIMES IN
CANADA.

From the Chicago-Times Herald on Jam
Eazy 18th, 1901
''The citizens of the Dominion OF
Canada have just cause to be proud
of their record as law-abiding people.
The annual report of the criminal
statistics of the Dominion, which has
a population of over 5000, 900, shows
that there were only twenty-five in
dictments for murder in 1899, of
which only two were left without
final action. Eleven of those indicted
were hanged, nine acquitted and
three confined as insane.
Canada is a country of vast proper
tions. It's people are scattered over
a wide stretch of territory, making
police surveillance particularly diff
cult and in many districts impossi-
bic. Yet a city like New York or
Chicago alone furnishes far greater
criminal list every year than the
whole vast stretch of territory from
Quebec to Vancouver.
''The Canadians ascribe their inn
munity from crime to the prompt
ness with which punishment is
meted out to offenders. When a man
is caught red-handed in the act of
robbing another he is not released on
straw bail by some justice of the
peace from the slums, to go out and
repeat the offense. Sharp and sure
Justice is meted out to criminals of
all kinds, the result being that when
the guardians of the public peace
succeed in bringing thug to the bar
they are seldom called upon to hunt
him a second time.
Furthermore there are few court
delays in Canada when a criminal is
brought to book. They have no
Dreyer cases over there. There are
no methods whereby Canadian Grim
inals can have the proceedings stayed
from month to month and from year
to year or after being convicted, ap-
peal from one court to another until
witnesses die of old age or opportun-
tiles for corruption can be found.
''Nor does this swift method of
treating with wrong-doers in Canada
leave the innocent unable to proper
ly defend themselves. They have all
the opportunities and privileges that
our own laws extend to them. The
extent to shield the guilty is lacking
that is all"
The above taken from the editorial
column of the Times-Hera1d gives
some idea of the immunity from
crime that exists in Canada, and this
is one of the many inducements held
out for Americans to settle in the
district known as Western Canada.
The season of 1901 will see few sec
tions of the country opened up for
settlement. They are attractive in
every respect. Tt is understood that
one of the best Indian Reserves in
the famous Valley of the Saskat-
chewan will be opened up this year,
and an invitation is extended to those
| desiring homes to make inquiries.
| The price OF the land is said to be
nominal. Besides these lands, the
several railway companies have lands
to sell; also the Government. For
particulars write to the Agent of the
Government, whose advertisement
appears elsewhere.
