SECONDHAND sMokesrAcks.
Article Not in General Use, Yet Al.
ways In Demand.

Among the very great variety Of
things that may be bought at second
hand are smokestacks of iron or of
steel. It may be that an establishment
puts in a bigger boiler and wants n
bigger stack. II 1t is using q steel or
al iron stack the old one Is taken down
carefully and q new one set up. The
old stack may be sold to a dealer in
secondhand boilers and machinery or
the owner may keep 1t and sell 1t him
self to somebody that wants a second
hand sm0kestack. II 1t is sold to q
dealer he may remove 1t to his own
yard or 1t may be that the original
owner keeps it on his premises until
the dealer has sold It. A manufacture
er may move from one place to another
and sell the old plant or parts Of 1t.
Here would be a secondhand smoke
stack. Secondhand stacks are bought
by various users. 1t may be that the
smokestack of an establishment is
worn out and that the boiler Is not and
that a secondhand stack would last
out the life Of the boiler. In such a
case the user would get q secondhand
stack IL he could find one suitable. Sec
ond-hand stacks may be used with va
rious temporary plants set up by con-
tractors and others. A smokestack NAV
be blown down in q windstorm and
the user supply the place Of 1t with one
bought second hand.

The old, old story is told once more
in the downfall of the Detroit bank
wrecker, Frank G. Andrews. Specula-

the same letters. 1t is said that If An
drews had abandoned the stock market
last summer lie could have retired with
the comfortable fortune Of 81, 900,
but, of course, he did not do this, and
finally too much faith in Thomas w.

looted like any other vulgar rascal.

NEW Works. MAcARoNl.
It IL Made in "Litt1e Italy" Just as It
Is Across the Sea.

Is Across the Sea.
Down In Little Italy" on the east
side in Roosevelt street. In James
street. New York. there are several
places where the customs of Italy Of
the middle ages prevail. where the ppo.
pie live, think and work as they did
when Columbus was still drawing
maps. These are the macaroni shops
where spaghetti and vermicelli are
manufactured by the same primitive
methods that existed hundreds OF years
ago.
One may wander down these narrow.
gloomy streets and with. little effort
imagine he is in the Italy of long ago:
the ancient houses. the narrow door,
ways n the nondescript costumes of
the people-all will help the deception
along. Over some of the windows and
doors are signs painted in drunken
looking letters that read: ''Fabrica Iii
macaroni. spageti e PASTE"
For all that could be proved to the
contrary, these signs might have been
doing service in the crooked streets of
republican Naples. So might some of
the p~eople-they look old enough. wrin-
kled and worn enough. From inside
comes the clacking Of primitive ma
chinery. hand-turned presses and hand
turned cutters of macaroni paste. Long
lines OF stringy dough are stretched
across the rooms. long ribbons of dough
fringe the edges Of gloomy shelves.
Sheets of dough like washed shirts
hung out to dry decorate the walls;
Wherever one turns there is dough.
Swarthy men stripped to the waist
push around the wooden poles of the
macaroni presses, while underneath
the long white strings are squeezed
out of perforated sheets of iron.
Macarroni and spaghetti are staple
articles in the Italian district and willis
many people will use only the imported
article there are others who think the
homemade product is just as good and
the number Of manufacturers is in
creasing. In one of the New York es-
Establishments Dry imported" goods are
made. The shrewd proprietor said:
Il buya da empty box and fila dem
~ "SteS W. pouAu j SCitil lul
II doT; no one know da Diff
To prove his clcverness he showed n
stock @f boxes which had come filed
from Italy. but into which the New
York product had been packed with
Intent to deceive"
The tubular article is the macaroni
and this is made in various sizes. hut
the lengths are all the same. The ends
or scraps of the various sizes are pack
ed in boxes and sold at reduced rates.
Some of this Italian staple is sold out
side the Italian district. but the greater
part is consumed there and the manu-
%facturers say that the fact that their
W people. who are good judges. buy
it is proof of it's superiority.
Another branch of the business. says
the New York Tribune. is making moo
dies. These are stripes varying in
width from one-thirty-second to one
fourth inch. The paste for these is
better and 1T is sold almost exclusively
to the Jewish population on the east
side.

Many incidental as well as direct

Many incidental as well as direct
good results come from the participa-
ton Of a large number of women in
the work of women's clubs. They are
learning for one thing the difference
between false and true c~ourtesy-be-
tween the considerateness for others
that is always lovely, right and desir-
able, and the easy-going -complaisence
that is merely a ~soft-hearted weak
ness. Real courtesy is nowhere more
necessary than in clubs and assemblies;
but courtesy should prevent hon
est opposition to what is disapproved.
In new clubs and among inexperienced
members such expressions are still
common as: II didn't agree, but 1
couldn't speak out and hurt her feel
ings." cit is a pity the motion was
carried, but Mrs. So-and-so had set her
heart on it, and we didn't like to dis
appoint her" "Oh, dear, no, it doesn't
work well at all; but the thing only
slipped through because nobody want
ed to get up and fight it." When to
oppose, how to oppose, and when to
cease opposing is something desirable
for every to know; but it Is a les
son especially needed by women, whose
natural p%oliteness makes them pecu-
liarly apt to fail in frank opposition to
an act, a measure, or a decision on So
cial matters at the moment it ought to
be contested. Then, when they have
done nothing to prevent the error, fol-
lows often the further fault Of COM
planning either piteously or angrily of
its results. Even the eliminating ex-
asperation of 81 told you SOL" is some
times perpetrated by those who have
thought so, but have not told any one
SO, or have not told the right people, or
enough of them, or at the right time.
Experience of club work has taught
many women that there and elsewhere
they owe it alike to courtesy and to
self-respect to oppose first, rather than
to complain afterward.

Frank Vail, sentenced TO 13 years in

Valley City, was en- route to the state
institution Saturday accompanied by
three Valley City officials. Wallis
hands were manacled and due precau-

ordinary looking fellow. He seemed
to be considerably affected by the at
tention paid to him and his hands
trembled as he stared ahead. He was
evidently thinking of the years OF
loneliness and labor before him.
Valley City people were very indig-
nant when the verdict Of tne jury in
the case giving Vail l3 years was an
nounced. The jury was severely crit
icised for their action. Many who
had attended the trial and listened to
the evidence declared Vail should have
been executed, while number Of 9TH
ers thought nothing short Of life
sentence would be given him. The
eloquence of Combs, the defendants S
attorney, had not little to do with
the result.

The plaintiff had the defendant
