Col. Watson Was for Man Who
Dared Give Direct Answer
to Direct Question.

Colonel Watson is man whose life
and interests are strange COM
mingling of the past and present. His
chief topic of conversation is the bat
tie of Gettysburg. where he proved
his mettle and won his title. Yet in
present-day concerns, especially the
political ones. of the town where he
lives he is always intensely interest
ed. Into these affairs, however, he
projects the past which is his and
the martial spirit of which he is so
proud. For in the western town in
which he lives is located the state
soldiers home. and among the veter-
ans Col. Watson is a leader. When
ever the plans for campaign are out
lined by the party leaders. it is left
to Col. Watson to swing the home
vote" And swing it he does.
There are those in the camp of
his own party who say that of mod
ern political methods Col. Watson
knows little and practices less. Once
only was his ire aroused when such
criticism was passed upon him. 1t
was the first time it was ever said in
open meeting.

Simple waterproofns Process.

A cheap and simple process for
interpreting canvas or duck is as
follows: Soft soap is dissolved in
hot water and solution of sulphite
OF iron (green vitroil or copperas) is
added. The sulphuric acid of the
copperas combines with the potash of
the soap. and the iron oxide is pre-
cipitated with the fatty acid as insol-
uble iron soap. This is washed and
dried. and mixed with linseed oil and
the mixture is applied to the fabric.
The soap prevents the oil from get
ting hard and cracking and at the
same time water has no effect on it.

Mr.. Stetson CHANGED to be walking
about the stage some time later. and
observed the notice. which he stopped

emerge from without the slightest

When 1t has caught and killed it's
prey its movements are equally grace
full as 1t carries the spoil home to its
hole.
Crossing Kentish field this week
saw weasel coming along under
the hedgerow red toothed from the
chase. There was the same sinuous
motion of the back; but the little
bea SITS head was held as high as pos
SHE. and from its mouth hung the
lin carcass of young rat. freshly
killed. The weasel held it by the

ness of It's legs, that only .the end Of
the rats tail dragged through the
grass.

in company, and this is naturally a
