Bill Winters uses his wit to save his strength. During camping trip in the Maine woods Bill was easily the laziest man In the party. Finally his exas- perated comrades told him that If he did not Kill something besides time they would pack him off home. The next morning Bill borrowed rife and went off up the mountains Two hours later the men in camp saw Bill run ming down again as fast as he could come, and close behind him was bear. The men watched the chase with load ed rifles ready. On reaching camp Bill turned and shot the bear. When the men could stop laughing one of them said, "Bill, what on earth possessed you to run that distance with the bear 30 close when you might have killed him on the hill and saved your breath? ?'' Bill smiled slowly. What's the use of killing a bear in the mountains and Juggling him in when you can run him 2" he Boston Herald

Miss Agnes Halliburton Figures
 in a Mysterious Disappe earance

Miss Agnes Halliburton, daughter of Orlando Halliburton, one of the best known citizens of Little Rock, disappeared from the home of the family Thursday night, and notwith- standing that every effort was made to learn the whereabouts of the pop ular young lady, no trace of her was found until Friday night, when she was found near Little Maumelle, tif- teen miles from Little Rock, in the woods, alone and unharmed. The young lady had been in i'll health for some time, and it is thought that she wandered from home while tenn porarily mentally unbalanced.
 When the disappearance of the young lady was reported Thursday morning, meeting of the citizens was held at the Little Rock board of trade, where a systematic arrange ment was made to search for her, and the search was kept up zealously un- til the young lady was found.

A New Improvement District Contemplated for Walnut Street, Between Second and Faurth Avenues, Comprising Two Blocks. Project Now Being Discussed.

The matter of forming all improve ntent district for the paving of Wal nut street from Second to Fourth has been contemplated by some of the property owners on the street. and it is very probable that the matter will be taken up with d view 10 consum. ating the project i'll the near future
 The enterprise may not be inaugural ed until the work on Fourth avenue iS finished. but with that street paved there is but little doubt that that DOT ton of Walnut street mentioned will also be paved. NJ P Russell of the Russell Grocer company stated to a Graphic reporter Saturday afternoon

that he had discussed the proposi would be affected, and that this gen tleman, like himself, thought it would be but little trouble to secure the con sent of the required number of people owning proptrty on the street to the forming of the district.
 The matter of forming improve ment districts for paving streets and securing the cooperation of the pcO- pie for road building is no longer a very difficult task, as all now eonsid- CT money expended in this manner one of the best possible investments that can be made.

Moor. Consider U. Dirty.

A habit of our own which we con- slider far more cleanly than eating with our fingers is looked upon by the Moors as filthy-that Is, washing our hands or face in basin and, still more, taking bath where the water Is not running. The cleaner we become, they say, the dirtier the water we are washing with must necessarily be- come, and eventually we step forth as cleansed from water which is no longer clean. A Moor to wash his hands has the water poured from vessel over them and never by any chance dips them into the dirty water. The same way in their baths. The water is thrown over their bodies out of bright brass bowls and flows away through holes in the marble or tile floor-Mod- ern Society.
