Keep your boards dry! in II voice loud

Were those words needed many cases
Of sore throat, cold ana Influenza
would be avoided, and many deaths
would be indefinitely put OH So many
men with boards neglect when they
wash their faces to wipe their boards
dry! A beard foot long demands a
lot Of toweling. 1t should be tOweled
after every wash Il good five minutes.
Otherwise it is damp. The owner goes
about with this damp thing upon his
delicate and sensitive throat. Then, If
he takes tonsilitis or influenza, he
blames the American climate. There
are too many damp boards among us.
Too many men, washing their faces
three or four times day, have their
boards damp and clammy good three

The Cleaners picnic was well attend

ing the very busy season. The various
committees that had their parts To car
IN out were actually too busy with
their harvest and many things, such as
arranging the Ideal" grove, etc. etc
were not attended to. They are all eK-
cusable, for the Cleaners can beat the

held next year only later in the season
will prove it to us.
A couple of thugs on the picnic day
filed their bristly hides with booze and
then had what they thought fight,
thinking they had done something
great But both creatures if concen-
trated down into one couldn't whip a
sick woman in the way of sense or
science. Still ii is just such as these
that destroyed the pleasure of the
many visitors who were here that day.

knuckles. Come on with the next pic

No prediction can be made safely as
to future earthquakes in any particular
region. If amy conjecture is warrant
ed, it is merely that regions which are
known to have contracted the earth
quake habit are, on the whole, more
likely to quake in the future than are
regions which have long been free from
seismic disturbances. No part of the
continent seems less likely to be shak
en- than the Mississippi basin. Yet there
were disastrous earthquakes about the
mouth of the Ohio river in 1S11-13.
Regions covered with thick layers OF
clay. sand, gravel. glacial drift, etc. like
much of the basin of the upper Missls-
sippi, are less likely to suffer severely
than those where solid rock comes to
the surface, for the loose material acts
as cushion to deaden the vibrations
which come to the surface from the

The blank which is inclosed calls
