is the Zeb and Zarrow pantomime farce
''Zig-Zag Alley" which comes to the

Wednesday matinee, with jolly Zeb

company of fun-makers comprising
some of the best known comedians and

Germans say.
Only the surface of our dead moon, with
its monstrous mountains and deep craters
presents such contrasts as the extinct
giant Napoleon.
Soldiers whom he had defeated were
fleeing across the ice. Napoleon's cannon
was laundering aimlessly in the rear OF
the flying troops. Each bullet meant a

was given:

The heavy round bullets crashed

persisted in the icy water.
This wholesale destruction OF life Napo-
leon watched, cold and Indifferent; he was
taking pawns from the board Of his rival.
But hours afterward, on that same
scene, he saw one single soldier almost ex-
hausted clinging to plank amid the
broken ice.
One of his best officers. at the emperor S

A dear old grandmother once stepped

broke her hip and was crippled for life.
Cremation Of useless playthings does
clear up the situation sometimes.
And cremation is being discussed very
freely as to it's good effects for city garb-
age. Fire does destroy the baleful effects
OF poisons, germ-infected clothing, and all
things that are unhealthy or noisome to
the senses. There are much worse things
in the world than burning II IL is only
properly applied in the right place.
The idea OF cremation for the dead Is
becoming a familiar subject with scient-
lists at the present time. When a dense
population Is forced TO meet the question
OF disposing Of corpses to protect the
health OF survivors. the burning question
is cremation without doubt.
At the first blush. the thought is painful,
almost insupportable. Those who do real
" mourn their dead are anxious to keep
the bodies out as long as possible, and yet
the exigency is so great that burial must
take place within a very few days. II
the dirt was not heaped over the buried
bodies the sight OF the once dear ones
would also be insupportable in its condi-
ton after decomposition has begun its
open work. Purified as by fire.; what
does that mean. II II Is not that these
bodily elements are Invested by extreme
heat from noisome smells. noxious gases
and the dregs OF disease? And really
what can IL matter to the dead?
Miss Frances Willard directed that her
body should go to the crematory after
death. and she was a devoted believer in
the Christian religion. Hon. Robert In
gersoll directed that his body should be
disposed OF in the same way, and he was
an unbeliever. Therefore, II becomes q

in time be put aside.

THRIFTY WIRE FENCES.
Evidences of Prosperity Multiply on
the Farms of Our State.

A sure sign of thrift and prosperity in
rural community is well kept fencing.
Evidences of thrift are accommodating
throughout the state on many farms
where ready-built fencing. known as the
Ellwood Steel Wire Fence has been or is
being erected. The neat appearance of
the fence, it's all-'round usefulness, its
economy durability and convenience
make il the fence of today, the proper
fence for farmers who appreciate the fact
that they are living in the age of steel
Ellwood Fences have more than the
strength of steel, because the best Bes-
semer steel is used in the wire, and this is
protected by heavy galvanizing which
makes the fence practically everlasting.
1t is woven in a diamond mesh and it can
be erected perfectly over hills and hollows,
fitting the surface and crossing small
streams. 1t stands heat and cold without
sagging or swapping. and 1t defies hogs,
mules. horses. sheep. boys and horned
cattle. 1t is made in six heights, from is
inches to IS inches, and in styles for all
purposes. for fencing orchards, pastures,
crops, lawns and chicken yards.
