REFLECTIONS.

Poets are born, not paid.
II isn't fair to even beat carpet
when it Is down.
Necessity is the mother of inven-
ton, but her children don't always
amount to much.
Speak gently" runs the old adage.
But that was before the days of the
megaphone.
The only reason some men get mar
ried Is to put their property in their
wife's name
The Ice supply will be short this
summer, but most people are fresh
enough, anyhow.

A ZAKOPANE HOUSE.
They Were Well Built, as Is Proven
by Examples in the Center
of Europe.

A Zakopane house is a very careful
ly finished wooden structure, built Of
tight-tltting, heavy logs of spruce,
which become reddish brown with
age, and are surmounted by a very
steep, high shingle roof which gives
good protection against the heavy
falls of snow and rain, and with its
triangular gables of acute angles har-
monies well with the Tatra peaks
and the tall spruce trees The frame
of the door is built Of very heavy
blocks of wood. surmounted by a semi
circular arch, Joined together by two
anchor-shaped pieces, and held in
place by rows of deliberately curved
wooden pegs. The big rafters Of the
ceiling are embellished with carved
ornaments of a very unique concep-
ton. The circular kolo zboyeckie, the
heart-shaped pazenitsa, and the svas-
tica with sharp points, are some of
the main motives of this odd orna-
mentation with which the goorals in
very judicious way adorn their ASH
wood furniture, wooden vessels and
instruments. 1t is wonderful how in
the center Of old Europe they have
remained unaffected by the leveina
force of modern civilization. and havd
developed a style absolutely unlike
Poland or in neighboring Hungary

VIII Not Offset the Ill Effects Of Coffee
When One Cannot Digest 1t.
A farmer says:

A farmer says:
1T was not from liquor or tobacco
that for ten years or more suffered
from dyspepsia and stomach trouble,
they were caused by the use of coffee
until | got so bad | had to give uI
coffee entirely and almost give up eat
ing. There were times when | could
eat only boiled milk and bread and
when | went to the field to work
had to take some bread and butter
along to give me strength
II doctored with doctors and took
almost everything | could get for my
stomach in the way of medicine, but
IL got any better 1t only lasted lit
tie while until | was almost a walking
skeleton
''One day read an ad for Postum
and told my wife | would try it, and

my health entirely and can eat any
thing that is cooked to eat, have

taken any medicine for my stomach
since began using Postum. Why,
believe Postum will almost digest an
Iron wedge.

first. but they saw the effects 1t had
on me, and when they were feeling
bad they began to use Postum. one at

Hosiery Styles.

The new stockings are worthy of
note. They are embroidered and built
upon openwork designs and they match
the costume This makes them very in
teresting from womans5 point of view,
for they give her certain opportunities
in dress which she did not have before.
And the same with her shoes, which
come in all colors. She can get them
in kid, patent leather, in suede, In
linen and in cloth.

THE RED WOODS

Like tufted arrows, straight and tall,
Down hurled by some titante hand
Against the purple sky they stand
And tremble on the mountain wall.
From CULTS where limpid waters cry
From deep lavne and fern lined cup,
They lift their shafts Of glory up
To touch the glory of the sky.
In fadeless verdure, host on host.
They flank the meadows cool and wide;
They dip their figures in the tide,
And run along the golden coast.
o temples, reared of mist and sun,
To crown the glory of the hills,
Perennial joy thy beauty thrills,
And all thy aisles to music run.
The night is here; and stars again
Look through thy arches to the sea;
Where God moves in majesty,
What hand shall mar what lip profane?

CARE FOR MOUNTAIN SHEEP
Colorado Game Laws Have This An
imal Under Their Special
Protection.

State Game and Fish Commissioner
Jim Woodland declares that the noun
tain sheep of Colorado is in the same
class as the sacred bull of India. 1t
must not be touched, says Woodland.
If the animal is seen browsing upon
the mountainside the gun of the hunt
er must not be pointed in it's direction.
The animal, therefore, may be called
the sacred sheep of Colorado" There
are not many of them left, but under
the protection of the law they are in
creasing every year. There is a band
of them on the hills between Florence
and Vicsor, and Mr.. Woodland has a
photograph of a bunch grazing on
hillside a short distance from Florence
But for the passage of law which
heas Ny fines those who kill this ami
NAL. the species would have been ex-
tinct long ago.
A letter received in Mr.. Woodlands
Office recently tells of the arrest and
conviction of one Fred Klantzsky for
killing a mountain sheep. Klantzsky
was fined $500 and costs in the county
court at Canon City. The costs
amounted to $40, and if the accused
man does not settle he will have a
long term to serve in the county jail

At Least on One Occasion George Cor
WINGED Wifey That He Could
Say emo"

81 dined at the Carlton with the
Howard GOulds in London" a globe
trotter said. afterwards we took our
coffee on the raised platform of the
foyer, where the orchestra plays and
where you get an excellent view of
the smart London world. Mrs. Gould
entertained us with the story of hel
last balloon trip. She had stayed up
much longer and gone much farther
than had been intended.
The trip she said, ruefully, was
little too successful
ooh said I, can anything be too
successful?'
A temperance sermon was once
too successful Mrs. Gould said
Then she told us how a woman
preached one morning a temperance
sermon to her husband, who was suf
fering from the effects of the night
before. The great trouble with you.
George the woman said, is that you
cannot say mo" Learn to say NO.
George, and you will have fewer head
aches. Can you let me have a little
money this morning?'
mo said George, with apparent
ease.'"

Reading Made Easy.

In a study of the physiological as,

some French scientists that some con-
siderable improvements could be
made in Typography, working along
these lines, and that increased legibil-

received a practical application in
some European advertising signs,
where legibility is prime essential,

AT the time of the arrival of the di-

was absorbing a deal OF attention and
the interest in and about Gibraltar was
fairly acute. ambassador White Of
Italy reached Gibraltar a day after
the coming of Admiral Sigsbee's di-
vision and was by the latter sent
across the bay to the old Spanish town
in the cruiser Galveston. Before he
went he had luncheon with Sigsbee
and it is of interest to recall that the
gentleman who during the conference
was noted as -Optimist" White was be-
fore the conference began pessimistic
as TO the length of time that would
be consumed in consultation, disputa-
tion and adjudication.
lie said there was no hope of ad-
journment before at least seven weeks
(and in according so much time to the
conference he differed from most OF his
colleagues). and that he foresaw much
of tedium and vexation OF spirit. AT
