Mrs. Herman Miller of Syracuse,
who recently risked her life in fire
in order to save cat from death, is
noted for her love of animals.
A young girl showed Mrs. Miller the
other day new fall hat. The hat was
adorned with large white bird. Mrs
Miller, looking at it, said:
II like it, all but that beautiful
white bird. rsever wear birds on my
own hats I'll tell you why.

morning birdnesting. He came sneak
ing into the house with three lovely,
pale blue eggs in his hand. 1 took him
to task. pointed out to him the cruel
ty of the thing he had done. He wept
and promised earnestly that he would
never rob another nest.
''In the fall L got a new hat. The

strangely.

The Experience Of an Old Time Expert
Craftsman.
zone day in the fall Of 1874" said an
old retired detective, zone of the most
finished and successful bank burglars
that ever used drill in this country
was walking across Sixth avenue, New
York, enjoying his parole and the mel
low sunshine. There were whole lot
of indictments hanging over him, OF
course, but they didn't worry him any,
for he happened to be on pretty fair
terms with some Of the men attached
to the municipal administration at that
time. AS he swung along he was ac-
costed by prosperous looking man
whom he did not know, although the
prosperous looking citizen addressed
the burglar by his right name. The
crook, finding after some stalling that
the man who knew his name wasn't
detective, took him into cafe and
asked him some things.
"In the first place, how did you
know me?' he inquired Of the stranger.
"Well, it appeared that the burglar
had been pointed out to the stranger
by a detective who was so shady that
he afterwarl did time for surreptitious-
~ly extending aid and comfort to the en-

".All right, said the craftsman then.
Now, l don't suppose you are seeking
my acqunintanceship for the sake OF
being introduced into society or for
the enjoyment Of my winning ways.
What's your lay?'
Then rhe stranger up and told the
burglar what his graft was.
".Pm the cashier of bank bit up

directors don't know anything about
it, but I'm short in my accounts.
There's only one way out Of it. The
bank will have to be robbed by profess

out, and in addition I'll expect to get
my rakeof from the robbery. want
YOU to rob the bank. You'll find $780,

course I want my bit out Of that, $10,-

you're square in these divisions OF

VAR, Old Men.

A stately old man with beautifui
white hair, sat down In the BARRIERS
chair.
Hair cut" HI. said.
The barber with comb and brush fell
upon the old mans elaborately ar
ranged locks-snd 10, he was quite
bald; only, above each ear, there grew
a tress quite eight inches long, and one
tress, the left, was plastered forward
in semi-circls over the forehead.
while the other, the right, was combed
back and grew up over the crown.
These locks, after the barber combed
them out, looked dismal enough, strag-
Cling down like white snakes over the
old mans black coat The barber
ignored them till he had finished cut
ting the narrow fringe on the neck.
Then, lifting one Of the long locks
politely with his comb, he said:
Anything off here, sir?'
The old man blushed like girl,
mo. nothing"
And, after the job was finished, he
would not let the barber brush his
hair. I'll tend to It," he said.
And, while the BARRIERS winked at
one another and watched him in the
mirror, he covered the front of his bald
head with the long left lock, which he
moistened first to make it stick, and
he covered the crown and back of his
head with the long right lock- Then,
red with embarrassment, ashamed OF
his old mans vanity, he paid his bill
and departed.
"Old men are the limit" said the
barber. IL wish you could see the
length Of some of these locks that they
grow, on the back Of the neck or above
the ear, to hide their badness with.
I've seen such locks foot long. They
look all right when they're arranged
properly, but they are always getting
disarranged, ana then they look ridicu-

New York, Oct. 16.--An actio~
against the Great Northern Railway
Company and J. j. Hill, wherein
charges Of misconduct are made
against Mr.. Hill as president and a
director OF the railway company and
restitution in an amount said to ex-
coed $1o,000.o00 is asked, was begun
by Clarence Venner yesterday in the
United States district court.
Venner, who claims to hold 300
shares Of Great Northern stock, al
leges that In 1901 President Hill
wrongfully and illegally carried out a
plan to purchase Chicago, Burlington
& quincy railway stock in the open
market at a price said to be a little
over $3.50 per share, but which, 1t is
alleged, became the property OF the
Great Northern and the Union Pa
cific railway jointly at 5000 per share
The amount paid is alleged to have
exceeded $35,0OO,o00 and President Hin
is charged with making a profit OF
more than $10.000,000. The complaint
asks that restitution of this money pc
made to the stockholders.

Wounds. Bruises and Burns.

BY applying an antiseptic dressing
to wounds, bruises, burns and like in
juries before Inflammation sets in, they
may be healed without maturation and
in about one-third the time required
by the old treatment. This is the
greatest discovery and triumph OF
modern surgery. Chamberlafn's Pain
Balm acts on this same principle. 1t Is
an antiseptic and when applied to such
injuries, causes them to heal very
quickly. It also allays the pain and
soreness and prevents any danger OF
blood poisoning. Keep bottel Of Pain
Balm in your home and it will save
you time and money. not to mention
the inconvenience and suffering such
