was evidently the clerks business to say it last, so We might as well stop trying to get ahead of her in it.
 We heard a woman ask for calico" one day. and the clerk brought her a roll of muslin for sheets. when We eX- pected to see a bolt of figured cotton stuff for cheap dress. We spent half day buying a tape needle because We didn't ask for a 'bodkin." We asked for shirt waists, and the clerk said he was sorry, but they didn't keep them. and when Katheryn saw some, he begged our pardon. and said, You mean blOuses, I see"
 The clerks were really extremely po- lite, much more so than they are at home-when we bought things. But We didn't always buy, and then they were as rude as could be. Often we would go in just to have a look around, and there was always a clerk at our elbows, asking, And what can I show you to- day, madam?" They simply dogged our footsteps, and finally we bounced out of place where we did intend to buy because they wouldn't let us see first what there was on the different counters.
 We had some funny experiences. One day when it was raining we went into a small shoe store in a neighborhood where we were sightseeing, and tried to buy a pair of toe rubbers for the summer, the kind without heels. we discovered we must ask for 'goloshes" instead of rubbers. and then when we explained the kind we wanted the man said: "We have the heavy ones for rough weather We did have the other kind in the winter!" That man would make about fifty cents a year if he kept store in the United States of America. Katheryn is very thin and she wears very small collar. She wanted to buy one in a certain store, and the woman pulled down a lot of boxes, but could not find one small enough. So, of course, we didn't buy any. But when we were leaving the woman said: That's the way with you Americans, you lok at everything in the shop and never buy" As if we would buy her collars when they were two sizes too big!
 we tolu tItls story to soIne ELStrA- women we know, and one of them said: q never dream of entering shop with out buying something before I leave. Now I have gone to the same milliner for twenty years, and if she has noth- ing that I think suits me exactly, I just take what doesn't suit exactly, jEbut close to it.''
 To which Kathervn replied-and it certainly was spiteful of herr won dered what was the matter with your hats!"-From the London Mail.

From New Haven point of view the perfect record achieved by the First separate company, Troop A, and the machine gun battery is cause for much justifiable pride in the three organiza- tions mentioned.
 The state encampment annually costs the state thousands of dollars and, as a result of the field work which was indulged in the first three days of camp the expense account this year will con- tain an additional item. The troops on their march to and from Patagaunset lake G!d considerable damage, appar- ently of an unavoidable nature. The | First and Third were not so destructive as the Second and Fourth. However,
 the farmers have presented great va will probably have to be made with
 each claimant. Yesterday General
 Frost Judge Advocate General Phelps
 Montgomery of New Haven and Colonel Hendrie went over tke route making the
 trip in Major Hills automobile. Efforts were made to adjust some of the claims
 with but little success as the farmers
 are inclined to hold out for the largest
 amounts possible. One farmer wants
 pay for remaining up all night, watch | ing his chickens. Another wants money
 damages awarded for the knocking of
 a few stones from stone fence. Still
 third claimed that the worry caused
 him by the troops marching within a i few feet of his garden could only be al-
 leviated by financial stimulant.

One of the features of the morning work was the digging and construction of entrenchments by large detail from each company of the Fourth regiment. The men, under command of Major James Hurley of Bridgeport, construct ed the entrenchments. and stripping the adjoining property of underbrush, fol- iage and brushes, planted the same on and about the entrenchments in such a manner as to give the earthen wall the appearance of small strip of wood land. The appearance was very de- captive.

OUR WATER SUPPLY.

The attention of homeseekers is
directed to the favorable conditions
existing in the Grand valley this
spring as compared with other
sections of the state.
In nearly every other part OF the
state, the fertile San Luis valley in
particular, there exists water fam
inc; even Denver's city supply is
running perilously low. Not enough
snow and rain has fallen during the
winter and spring to furnish the
customary supply Of water to the
streams feeding the irrigatlng
bitches, and in many instances
these are mere dust beds The
crops are perishing and this in los
calities where the water supply has
never before failed.
The Sentinel is not desirous OF
drawing comparisons unfavorable
to other portions of the state. 1t
merely directs attention to the fact
that this is an off year all over Col
orado in the matter of insufficient
water supply-on the western side
OF the range as we'll as the eastern.
The memory of the oldest inhabi>
tant cannot carry him back to the
time when the watersheds were so
lightly covered with snow as the
last winter. Nevertheless, the
Grand valley has water to drown
ducks; water to cover thousands of
acres of arabic land where no ditch
yet reaches.
The community immune from
the danger Of drouth possesses an
ever available fund at the bank OF
prosperity, for land without water
in this arid country is land without
value.
The Grand valley is raising her
banner crop Of fruits and cereals
this year. There is a prodigious
yield of everything and no section
slighted. There is no spot on
earth where there can be absolute
insurance against crop failures, but,
with its certainty Of water and fa>
vorable climatic conditions, this
section approaches as closely to the
ideal as nature makes possible.

INCREASING USE OF SALT WATER
1t Is Becoming an Important Adjunct
of Medical Operations.

1t Is Becoming Important Adjunct
of Medical Operations.
The use of salt water is becoming
one of the most Important adjuncts of
medical operations. Progressive phys
icians who resort to the use of normal
salt solution in cases where life is al
most extinct report wonderful success.
The effect of the solution upon the
heart is SO marked as to produce al
most instantaneous results, even in
cases where half the blood is lost,
condition which formerly proved fatal.
Nowadays few operations are perform
ed without giving the patient an in
lection of salt solution either before,
during, or after the operation, accord
ing to conditions. This fortifies the
system against loss of blood and
shock, often the most serious consid-
erations in operating. AT first sur
geons thought it necessary to put the
solution directly into the veins, but
experiment proves that to place it be-
meath the skin is sufficient, as the tis-
sue absorbs it rapidly. Valuable as
normal serum is for a stimulant its
antiseptic qualities are scarcely less
so. Surgeons use it for washing their
hands, to remove blood stains, for
soaking internal pads and bandages,
and for surgical bathing.
AS early as 1877 European physi-
clans began experimenting with salt
and water, but until 1880 no definite
results were obtained. For IL years
the number IF eases and diseases in
which its use way successful has in
creased astonishingly. Few mistakes
or failures are NS)orted, yet, as in all
things medical. great care and judg-
ment must be exercised. The solution
is no "omnicura.'
One case, both pitiful and amusing,
illustrating a possible misuse, is told
by doctor who numbered among his
patients a helplessly paralyzed, hope
lessly disagreeable old man. After
years Of suffering, during which he
was a. terrible burden on his only
daughter, a school teacher, he grew
suddenly worse one day, and the doc
tor believed him dying. AS a last re-
sort he injected a large quantity OF
normal serum. Today the old fellow
is better than he has been for years,
more trying than ever, having added
swearing to his other accomplish
ments, the daughter looks thinner and
paler, and the doctors conscience
troubles him.
