what a Bird likes.

Birds like a little sunshine-too
much is fatal A bird after bathing
may be hung for fifteen minutes in
the sunshine to dry his feathers, but
should not remain longer, says House
hold Animals.
Do not hang birds in window. All
windows are draughty Do not per-
nit draught from an open window
to strike your bird. Do not allow
the temperature Of the room where
the bird is kept to drop suddenly
Permit your bird to go to rest at
dusk, keeping it out Of a lighted
room.
Keep canaries in temperature OF
G5 to 20 degrees.
Never make a quick move about

WANDERLUsT.
By Gerald Gould.

BY GeraiS Gould:
Beyond the East, the sunrise, beyond
the West the sea,
And East and West the wanderlust
I that will not let me be;
It works in me like madness, near,
to bid me say good-by!
For the seas call and the stars call,
and oh, the call of the sky!
/ know not where the white road runs
nor what the blue hills are,
But man can have the sun for friend
and for his guide star;
And there's no end Of yoyaging when
once the voice is heard,
For the river calls and the road calls,
and oh, the call Of bird!
Yonder the long horizon lies, and
there by night and day
The old ships draw to home again,
the young ships sail away;
And come | may, but go must, and
if men ask you why,
You may put the blame on the stars
and the sun and the white road
and the sky!

STORING HEAT IN WATER.
Principle That Was Brought to Notice
in This Country Years Ago.

London letter to the Iron Age
says that engineers have for many
years been dreaming Of the possibili-
ties of storing power in hot water,
and thus facilitating the quick ganer-
alton CT steam. One application Of
the principle was made in the United
States a few years ago. A locomotive
was designed which had an enormous
boiler. that was nothing more than a
tank Or reservoir, with a cylinder and
piston and the usual connections with
Inc cI-y.2G We Is, LeI~re HE en-
CINE was employed to do any work. a
pipe was introduced into the tank
whereby live steam from a stationary
plant was admitted and the tampara-
ture of the fluid raised considerably
above the boiling point Enough
steam would than be generated in the
tank to run the machine several miles.
For some reason the experiments
made with this locomotive, though
apparently successful, never led to its
adoption by any Of the great railway
companies.
According to the Londcn letter just
mentioned, a somewhat different plan
is being tried at the British capital
in one Of the electric power stations.
The boilers there, which are Of the
wafer tube type, are capable Of gener-
ating steam to 125 pounds pressure
at the rate of 10000 pounds an hour.
While this suffcas for most purposes,
the demand is now SO great at some
times that the boilers are inadequate
and no ground is available for extern
sion of the plant This is a problem
which besets many electric light en-
gineers. The period Of maximum de-
mand is, moreover, SO luctuating as
to be very uneconomical HSat stor-
age, if it could be realized, might be
a great advantage.
The arrangement adopted in this
London case is to fit large cylinder
vessel containing water about the or
binary steam drum Of the boiler.
When there is only normal demand
upon the station some of the steam
from the boiler is passed into this
water. storage cylinder, with the result
that the water Is kept at very high
temperature, so that when the extra
demand comes upon the STATEN this
water is fed into Tie boiler, which,
owing to this hot feed water, can give
$4,000 pounds of steam an hour-an
increase OF rs per cent 1t is said
that on occasion the evaporation was
actually $4,000 pounds, but Is per
cent. is probably sufficient, especially
as there is no priming There is no
economy in the system; the coal con-
sumption must be decreased even at q
greater rate than the evaporation, as
there is considerable loss through
heat radiation from hot water storage
tanks, so that the system may meet
special conditions, but beyond that its
practical advantages are not obgerV
able.

drank the tea and ate the sweet
meats, which were round balls made
of rice, and they showed me their
toys. Japanese children have no poe
kets in their quaint, long gowns, but
the sleeves, wide and reaching to the
knees, made an excellent substitute,
and out of them came tops and balls,
little toys made OF paper and rice
straw to initiate figures and beats,
and we had plenty to talk about for
awhile. Then the gay LITTLE butter
flies fitted off to chase each. other
down the long aisles cf the tree
trunks. All but one, maid who's
name, as she told me, was Dune,
which means Hoa5rabls-F oacl-ol-tho
Plum. In that country they name
little girls after flowers and graceful
things, the o meaning honorable, a
title of respect. There are many such
names as Ear-of-Y oung- Rice, Bamboo,
Chrysanth emum, Spring-time. Dune,
with her l1imono Of yellow crepe en-
broidered in pale green leaves, sat
beside me, as eager to hear about
American girls as you are to hear
about her. So told her CT enc and
another; Of Margaret, who lived in a
great city and took long rides on
street cars to our own parks; Of Eliz-
abeth, who lived on a farm and fed
the chickens, cared for the baby tur-
keys and learned to make butter.
We talked so long that the shadows
deepened, and the sunset turned the
clouds Of cherry blossom golden rose,
like real clouds, and over the brow
of the hill came the Japanese mann
ma to take her little daughter home
After a few moments conversation l
found that DUNES home was near
mine, so | begged her company in my
jinriksha, for she was a little mite,
and l am not large, SO we could easily
ride together.
Hand in hand we walked down the
avenues of trees to the granite gate.
way, where the sturdy runner sat
with group Of others. Climbing in,
we snuggled close together and join
ed the gay colored, chattering crowd
homew2rd.
Over the curved bridges and past
the lotus lake we rolled, the funny
washbowl-shaped hat Of the runner
bobbing up and down in frons OF us.
At one side of the road in the dis
lance was the sea, and now and then
under the glow nf the sunset flashed
the running of the surf. At the other
side was a sea of green reaching to
the far-off mountains, a vass" sea Of
rice fields, ripping into waves when
the breeze blew across it. Beyond
was Fujiyama, shadcTy in the twi-
light, and as we came into the village
with its houses in their matched caps
lights were twinkling far out on the
horizon line from the fishing beats
riding at anchor, and nearer lights
cleaned from the open houses.
Then Dune slid a little brown
hand into mine, with a soft Sayonara,
goodbye, as the runner stopped, and
I went in to my supper of rice, nsh
and tea, served by quiet maid with
hair as black as the night that was
about us.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

The sun was warm on the matched
roofs and the groves of trees, and a
merry crowd filed the streets of the
little Japanese village, for it was the
festival of the cherry-blossoming.
In Japan the Sunrise Kingdom" "
as it is called, the calendar is divided
into the time of the poisoning of the
flowers. The camellia, sometimes
shrouded in snowfakes, helps to ush-
er in the New Year; then, after few
weeks of cold rains and dull skies,
the branches of the withered old
black plum trees are starred with
fragrant white flowers, followed soon
by the erry-blossoming, and until
November, when the brilliant maple
leaves light up the scene, this gentle
people count the seasons in flowers.
In this little village most Of the
cottages had matched caps on their
heads. Some were worn with age
and rain, but Dame Nature had
patched them with velvety MOSES
until the whole village looked like a
picture. There were only two streets
and these ran almost at right angles
like a rude cross. The sea, curving
far inland, Rugged the houses with
caps of thatch on two sides, so that
one could hardly help looking out
over the water wherever he stood.

a little at one side to let the smiling
rice fields climb down, terrace by

rice field you would be surprised to
see one. The plants are set out in
the mushiest mud that you can think
of. The workmen wade up to their
knees in this thin mud and set out
the plants; then, as they grow up,
there are men and boys who weed
them, stopping all day until their
backs are weary. At first the field
looks like a great pond or lake; then
some morning you look across it and

so later, the wind blowing across it
ripples the rice stalks like long,
green waves and it is beautiful. Rails

them, and in the corners are great
beds of pink lotus flowers, something
like pink water-lilies, with broad, fiat,

fields at nightfall, you may occasion

W. r. Hicks of Laramie, Wyoming, Bids
For the Local Democratic Organ

HICKS is A "BoOMERANG" EDITOR

w. t. Hicks, of Laramie, Wyoming,
the present managing editor of "The

sha Monday afternoon negotiating for
the purchase of the Daily Gazette
plant. The deal was not completed
when Mr.. Hicks left for Chicago
Monday evening, but it is probable
that he will purchase the plant and
take possession within few days.
Hicks is a genial good fellow and
filled up with the spirit of the West.
He seems to think that he can insti11

country. He stated, during his visit
to Kenosha, that he had revived three
as dead papers as could be found in

Verne McPadden is Arrested While in
the Act OF Stealing From Store
of w. H. Robinson.
CHARGED WITH PETTY LARCENY
He is Thought to be an Old Offender, and
for This Reason Will be Dealt
with Accordingly.

Quite little excitement was caused
on Main street Sunday morning when
Chief of Police Reino1d arrested Verne
McPadden on a charge of shop lift
ing. He had just been caught in the
act of stealing four boxes of cigar
cites from the store of William H.
Robinson. It is thought that the ar
rest is of more than usual note, as a
gang has been stealing from the Rob
inson store for several months and ii
is thought that this will break up the
gang.
The arrest of McPadden was of the
sensational order. During the early
hours of Sunday Elmer Hansen and
James Charles, Jr., had been in
charge of the Robinson store, and
McPadden and a number of his COM
panions came into the store. They
were talking with each other and sew
era1 times McPadden was observed to
approach the cigarette case. Hansen
kept close watch on the boy, and
finally managed to detect him in the
act of stealing package of cigar
cites from box which was on one Of
the front counters. Hansen lost no
time in going after the sneak thief,
and after he had succeeded in secur-
ing the return of two packages of the
cigarettes he caught McPadden by the
scuff of the neck and deposited him
out in the middle Of the icy Mair
street. Then Charles mentioned the
fact to Hansen that it was possible
that he had not secured all the goods
taken from the store, and Hansen
went out after McPadden again. He
brought him back into the store 5n6
found two more packages Of cigar,
cites.
At this time the Chief Of Police ar.
rived and McPadden was turned over
to him and taken to the county jail
At the jail he gave his name as Jake
LaVoy. He made no effort to deny
that he had stolen the property from
the store, and made no excuse for his
action.
Alderman Robinson was notified Of
the arrest and he hurried to the jai.
and identified LaVoy as McPadden
and promised to appear against him
It is claimed that gang of boys
and young men have for some time
been conducting a systematic prac-
tice of stealing small articles from
the Main street stores. The Robin.
son store has been victimized several
times, but this is the first one of the
gang that has been caught.

FINDS MANY WIVES.
County Agent Gonnormann Gets Thirteen
Applications From Prospective Brides.


County Agent Gonnermanni is firmly
convinced that it pays to advertise
and from henceforth he will be a
great believer in the potency of
printers ink. Last Saturday it was
announced that the County Agent
was looking for a wife for one of the
minor County officials in the County
and during the evening he received
telephone calls from at least eight
women who were anxious to give the
matter trial. On Sunday five more
applications came in and the agent is
now considering plans to hold a con-
test. to decide 10 which woman the
prize will be awarded. The app1ica-
tons come from all classes of people
and there is no doubt but that the I'M
fortunate widower will soon have a
happy home. It is expected that
there will be any number of app1ica.
tons in the future and the County
Agent is expecting to be kept busy
answering his enlarged correspond
ence.
