A very simple but ingenious device for
keeping mites off the roosts in hen
houses is used in England, according to
an English newspaper. The arrange
ment consists OF thick, fluffy cord, or
heavy yarn cord, wrapped lightly round
the roost, the end hanging down into a
can OF coal oil below. The theory of this
device is that the string will draw the
kerosene up from tha can and keep the
part wound abont the roost always sat
urated with oil. OF course, under such
an arrangement, no lice could inhabit
the Foosts. The can, however, must ba
kept wellsupplied with oil. The thing
is worth trying. Nothing, perhaps,
gives chickens more trouble than lice,
and any method to get rid of the pests is
worth the effort,
Commenting on "The Bridge of the
Gods" the popular book written by
Frederic H. Balch, former resident OF
Hood River, the Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal says: "The powerful Oregon tribes as
they were two centuries ago are power
fully depicted and we'll used. Savage
superstition and Christian courage ap-
pear in its pages. The illustrations BY
T.. Maynard Dixon are especially to be

HILLS OF TINY GEMS.
The Sands of the Colorado Desert Are
of Marvellous COmpO-
sItiOn,

The Colorado desert is a level plain
of clay, relieved here and there by hills
of sand. 1t was formerly the bottom
of great shallow lake. the rocky
banks of which still remain in the
shape of stony cliffs that bear the an
cient water-marks upon them. 1t is an
arid wonderland. says the Philadelphia
Saturday Evening Post.
The hills described are not station
airy, but travel constantly, though
slowly, journeying over the plain as
the winds direct The sand of which
they are composed is not Of the ordi-
nary kind, but of nature marvellous.
Most of the grains are transparent.
others are translucent, while many
are of rainbow hues, being. in fact,
small gems of red carnelan. green
chrysolite, and vari-colored garnet.
Seen beneath microscope, most of
them are perfect spheres, rounded and
polished by attrition with each other.
Composed of these strange materials,
the sand-hills look like great snow
drifts, with here and there a gleam of
color. Continually they give forth a
rustling sound, as the tiny spheres are
shifted by the winds, rolling slowly
onward.
The northern portion of the desert
is paved with the most wonderful peb-
bles in the world, in many parts so ex-
quisitely laid as to defy successful
imitation by the most skilled worker
in mosaic flooring, These pebbles are
of porphyry, agate. carnelisn quartz
crystal, garnet, and other such beauti-
full materials. They are packed to-
gether so that the surface composed
OF them is like a floor, and they look
as If pressed into it with a roller.

COMO.

The Village Improvement Associa-
ton held its monthly meeting on
Friday afternoon of last week, Mrs.
Underwood presiding. Two new
members were admitted, but some
important business was laid over for
a special meeting to be held in the
hall on Friday afternoon of this
week, at which it is hoped larger
number will be present. The V. l.
A. has done great amount of good
work in Como, which could not have
been done by any other agency, but
it is essential to the fullest useful
ness of such an association that it
should have q general support.
Every woman in Como should be an
active member and every man
should aid and support it in every
possible way. Every property owner
is interested in making the place
attractive, and what has been done
Z that end in Como and at the ceme-
tary is owing to the labors of the
ladies of the V. /. A.
The Como Good Will Circle of the
Int national Sunshine Society met
at the residence of Mrs. Horace
Prior on Thursday afternoon of last
week. There was good attendance
of the members and successful as
well as an enjoyable reunion was
held. An entertainment will be
held soon for sunshine purposes, and
the details were more or less discuss
ed. Refreshments were served by
the hostess, assisted by Miss Leila.
1t was decided to hold the next
meeting with Mrs. L. A. Hart.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. A. MaeNab have
arrived, Mr.. McNab on Saturday
and Mrs. McNab on Wednesday of
last week. They are guests at All
View Cottage.
The Knights of Sunshine had an
meeting on Saturday af-
ternoon and a number of new menu
bers were added to the roll. A meet
ing will be held Saturday, and,
permitting, ice cream will |
be served and it is hoped that enough |
San be sold to other than members to
iefray expenses.

regular meeting Sunday evening, /

Dark Deeds.

To every crime there is a motive.
Find the motive of the criminal and
you have the best possible clue upon
which to work in securing a convic-
ton. The man who burned l.. A.
Hurlbut's barn and packing house
last September had q motive. The
man who cut the hog proof fence of
his grove lots last week also had a
motive. He also has black heart.
His skin is not black, it is simply
dirty. There isn't a negro in Cres-
cent City who holds a grudge against
Mr.. Hurlbut. He is kind to them
and always courteous. Then the
work shows evidence of having been
done by an expert. He had the right
sort of tools. He is the same expert
criminal who has committed other
crimes in this city. Isn't it about
time honest people went hunting for
him. Mr.. Hurlbut offers an induce
ment of 500 for his arrest and con-
viction.
The man who cut the fence isn't a
hog owner. These men have nothing
against Mr.. Hurlbut. Find the mo-
tive, then keep your eye on the man
and you're sure to bag him some time.
