Helahta and pepths of Man.

The most selfish and ignoble races
that ever flew through the air or
swan in the sea never availed them
selves of the accidental possession Of
power to establish orders Of patrician
and plebeian, or of lord and common
err, and thus to doom one portion Of
their number to perform all the toll
and bear all the burdens of the tribe,
while they themselves monopolized all
its leisure and its uxuries.-Horace

imp ORTANT FACTS
FOR cow OWNERS

The mechanical Cream Separator has
become a vital feature of every home
dairy just as of every butter factory.
Its use means much more and much
better cream and butter, as well as
saving of water, ice, time and room.
The difference in results is not small
but big. Few cows now pay without a
separator. Dairying is the most profit
able kind of farming with one.
$50 of the creamery butter of the
world is now made with De Laval
machines, and there are over 10000
farm users besides.

Pretty Christmas Gifts
That Can Be Made at Home

Of the many pretty Christmas gifts
that may be made at home none
are simpler or have more original
ity this season than pin cushions and
calendars. There are the ordinary
shape cushions that are fashioned every
year, but the new ones for use on dress
ers are particularly attractive and are
made like bottles. with two fiat hand
painted sides and two soft rounded
ones, in which the pins are stuck These
two useful sides are made OF a pretty
shade of satin ribbon that is long
enough to be twisted into semblance
OF a stopper TO make the bottle look
real. The broad sides that are deco
rated in water colors, if a woman can
paint, or Ornamented with hand-em-
broidery, are effective and make the pin
cushion an attractive article for a b3-
rcau. In yellow satin, with delicate pink
roses. these bottles. like cushions, are
decidedly pretty. The fiat sides are
made of pasteboard panels covered with
4 sheer piece OF white silk or some
color that will show the painted or en-
brOidered flowers to advantage, and the
soft round pieces are pieces OF ribbon
When carefully sewed together at tho

Rice. who Is twenty-five years old

He met Capt. Dooley and Detectives

on the run. Dooley and his MEN are

tossed them from the place. This af-

at the head of ten cops, with night
sticks. and the three men were soon
being dragged handcutfed to the sta

Later In the morning Rice obtained
an interview with the Captain. in which
he told of his history and said he didn't
know what he had done. As a result;
the charge of intoxicattcn was the only
one preferred against the trio and SEN
tence was suspended. They hastily left
