An Oriental Dog.

Kotobilxi comes from northern China
and he lives in a big, Old-fashioned
house on Washington square. He is a
thoroughbred Chou dog. and is called
''Koto" for short. though his whole
name means good luck" He looks a.
little like a collie and a little like a
habits.
In the first place. he is a thorough
Oriental and he never will fight I'M
less he IS forced to defend himself
the neighborhOod at first wondered
what odd kind of. fellow this stranger
was and they started to bully him, but
they soon learned to let him alone be-
cause his teeth were very sharp indeed.
Next 'KotO," coming from the land
of ice and snow, likes cold places, and
he always sleeps on the marble stair
way leading up from the front hall
Then again, he always gets up on the
highest places he can find, inheriting
traits of some of his Wolfish ancestors
Whenever he is taken out in the cOun-
try lie Immediately runs up on top OF
the nearest HILL and in the city he
never goes downtown-always up.
''Koto" never makes a sound. Not
even a growl- As his tongue is perfect
" black, perhaps ne is afraid to talk.
because he might say something very
bad He is more curious than a fox
terrier and pokes and noses into every
thing. His most intimate friend is "a
little white fluffy toy dog who wags
his tail and wiggles his body until one
would think he was made of jelly. This
friend is named after a fierce Bornese
head NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. but he is
called Jimmie and is awfully jealous
of KotO and barks and snaps when his
big friend IS petted- t'Koto'' however,
knows Jimmie" is spoiled and humors
him
''Koto" is very proud and will not
accept food from any one but his mis-
tress. One time when she went away
he nearly starved. He loves to chase
cats. and he also loves mice. He will
sit waiting at a mouse hole Just as a.
cat might, and one day he was found
with a mouse in his mouth with the
tail hanging out.

friend Jimmie" go to Washington.

Everything is ready. My trunk is
packed, sent to the station and is
checked through. Didn't I do nieely?"
That's good management. that is.
This was the conversation between
a certain West End man and his wife
yesterday afternoon The wife was
about to go on a western trip and ex-
pected to leave on the II 40 train last
night for Buffalo. Her husband had Sc
cured a pass for her and she was hap
py. At dinner that night the question
of readiness for the trip again became
the topic of discussion.
Have you your money and pass all
right?" inquired the husband.
'tOh, yes" answered the wife, FUN
bling in her pocketbook. IT placed it
in this compartment. Why, what nas
become of it? My goodness, it ism t
here" and she turned pale with ap-
prehension. Whatever did I do with
it?''
Look in your bureau drawers" sug-
This was done and every other pos
sible hiding place was searched, but
without success.

said the excited wife. almost in tears.
I'm almost sure I did. Whatever viii
I do?'
"Have you your trunk check?"
yes. But the trunk has gone to
Buffalo,
Maybe it hasn't gone yet. Give me
your check and trunk key and I'll see
if I can find it, Saying which, the
disguested husband hurried to the bag
gage room at the Union station, wheI e
luck favored him. The trunk was still
there. After some little difficulty he
opened the trunk and found the miss
ing pass slowed carefully away in one
Of the numerous boxes in the upper
part of the trunk. From that time on
until the train left for Buffalo the hus-
band kept watch of the pass. A TOO
careful wife is apt to need assistance.

The g Pill Citv.n

A new cognomen has been added to
the already Wearisome list of nick
names applied to American cities. De-
troit is now the pill City It is said
that 20 per cent. of the pill product of
the United States is manufactured in
that city. It has several large drug
manufacturing houses. and in fact does
a larger business in that line than
any other place in the United States.
The word pill embraces not only the
old-fashioned article resembling a
shot, but oval. square. fiat and every
other shape of tablet and pellet These
are not patent medicines, as a rule, but
pills made uD according to the form
ulas in the recognized pharmacopoeias,
and purchased at wholesale by drug
gists, to be dispensed as physicians

WOman's Auxiliary to MasOns
Has Found a Name.
Will Be Called Ancient Order of
Toltec Rite.
BUT HIGHER BRANCHES
Relatives of Scottish Rite and
knights TempIar Eligible.
C. B. Hamilton of Topeka Is the
Founder.
BUT HIGHER BRANCHES

The new woman's auxiliary to the
Masons, to be called the Ancient Order
of the ToItec Rite, is about ready to be
organized. Sentiment in favor of it's
founding was worked up last fall.
Throughout the winter meetings have
been held and conditions are now about
ripe to launch the order. 1t is planned
to make it 4 national organization.
The women who are eligible to mem
bership must be wives, sisters, mothers,
or widows of Scottish Rite or Knights
Templar Masons. This will naturally
mean that the membership will be to an
extent limited. But the idea has taken
popular hold among the Masonic
bodies in Topeka and the new order will
doubtless be launched at an early date
with q good membership.
Charles Barr Hamilton is the founder
of the new auxiliary. He suggested it
last October and his proposal met with
favor Quite a number of the women
who are eligible to membership actively
engaged themselves in it's organization
and have been holding meetings at reg
ular intervals for the purpose of franz
ing the governing rules.
The new order is also meeting with
favor in other cities of the United
States, although it has not yet been
actually formed. Encoura ging letters
are in the hands of the local promoters
and they feel that it viii only be a mat

der of the Toltec Rite viii be as firmly

No. 5, Knights Templar, has issued
through Eminent Commander Evan
Davis, the following notice for tomor-
rows religious observation of Easter
Sunday:
Sir knight: You viii report at our

will sound in the Red room at 2:3O p.
m, and the commandery formed with
