AND CAN IT BE
That Our Esteemed Contemporary
was Faxed just Like the Common
Run of Shad.

ss0t' VI ohou
For the past few weeks the Bulletin
mas been booming business directory
deal that was to appear in its columns,
backed by some noted Chicago firm.
The notices were many aud highly COM
plimentary Of the firm and the forth
coming directory and urging it upon
the confidence of the business men.
Last week but little was said Of the
brilliant scheme. Perhaps the Bulle-
tins Chicago firm is all right, but again
perhaps the following Illuminating item
in the Dds Moines Register will oe ex-
planatory:
A newspaper publisher who was him
self caught, yesterday brought to Des
Molnes news of a new game that is
being worked among the country pub.
fishers of the state by an illeged Chica-
go advertising company which seems to
be more energetic than honorable in it's
dealings As result, not few coun-
try publishers are out considerable
sum of money and labor and because
the Chicago concern is not fulfilling it's
part of the deals. they are becoming in
volved in much trouble with their local
advertising patrons.
A smooth tongued agent calls upon
the publisher, "jollies" him not a little,
and then unfolds his scheme. 1t COM
prises the publication in the paper of q
page or two of business cards and later
their reprinting on card board as sort
of business dire tory of the county
The oily representative agrees to solicit
the cards pay for their printing at a
fixed page rate, and for their later print
ing on cardboard.
Having signed up the contract, the
county publisher waits for the Chicago
concern to do the rest. In the meantime
the agent solicits his caros, collecting
81 each in advance and malling numer-
GUS promises for the publishers to full
fill.
The cards are duly published in the
paper, and then the publisher waits for
remuneration and other things to come
his way. But the oily agent, with
pockets we'll filled, HES himself to
greener pastures, the alleged Chicago
firm fails to pay any atteAtion to the
letters of the publisher, and the latter
continues to wait.
In some cases the publishers have
carried out the agents promises at a
considerable loss to themselves, rather
than become involved in any unpleasant
controversies, In other cases, publish
ers have repudiated the entire trans
action.
'sIknow that papers at Rockwell City,
Jefferson. Adel, Sac City, and Carroll
have had trouble with these deals, "
said the publisher, and 1 suppose there
are many more. The deal isn't on the
square and publishers ought to be on
their guard. know from experience
We trust the editor of the Bulletin
was not badly bitten and that none of
our business men were losers, should
this perchance be the same deal spoken
of in the Register.

SERPENT EATING SNAKE.
A yenOmous Reptile That Whl At'
 tack Man or Beast.

tack Man or Beast.
 The serpent eating snake, or king Of serpents (Ophiophagus elaps) found In Burma, Is among the most interesting of our venomous snakes and the only really aggressive member of the ophid- fans, readily attacking any man or animal that happens its way. The female Is especially Irritable during the season of modification, and an adult snake attains a length Of from twelve to fifteen feet, Is Superlatively swift and active and possesses a poison fang three inches in length and charg- ed with a very powerful venom. It will be admitted that ophiophagus elapa Naia bungarus or serpentlvore, as 1t Is also called, is foe that had better be avoided.
 While being neither an arboreal nor a water snake, the Ophiophagus elaps climbs trees with facility and takes to water readily, swimming with great ease and skill Its poison is as deadly in It's effect as that of the lesser hooded snake Cthe Ophiophagus elaps also car ries a hood, the cobra, but 1t is beliey- cd that the action of the venom Is not quite so rapid.
 The shortest period within which it proved fatal to fowl was fourteen minutes, while dog expired in two hours and eighteen minutes. Nichol- son relates an account of an elephant which succumbed to bite in three hours.-Amrita Bazar Patrlka.

If, as some say, ninety nine out of a hundred American buildings are com monplace or ugly, 1t Is a good thing to cover the walls completely, but when we have a piece of architecture that Is a joy to everybody-something in which we can really take pride-vlneS should never be allowed to cover it en- tireiy. In such a case the beauty of the vine is its aspiration, its incom- pleteness.

THE WEARING OF SHOES.
A Custom That Is Almost as old as
 the Race Itself.

the Race Itself.
 What is regarded as the earliest ref erence to shoes Is found in the Old Testament where Abraham refuses to take as much as shoe latchet from the king of Sodom, Among the Jews the shoe played an important part Tn many social usages. When buying or selling land 1t was customary to de liver a shoe, and the act of throwing down a shoe on territory implied occu- pancy. The finding of sandals on Egyptian mummies proves that the wearing of shoes is almost as old as the race itself. In Venice In the seven teenth century every lady of any pre- tension to fashion or position wore what were called "choppines," high clogs or pattens, to elevate them from the ground. Thomas Coryat, traveller who visited Venice in 1911, says of them: "They are so common in Venice that no woman goeth without either in her house or abroad. It is thing made of wood and covered with leath- CT in sundry colors-some white some red, some yellow. Many of them are curiously painted; some also of them have I seen fairly gilt. There arc many of these chaplneys of a great helght-even half yard highland by how much the nobler a woman Is by so much the higher are her ChapincyS.
