part of the animal. He was getting
on, progressing, when
"About four years ago a great un,
Gle of Stephens died in Westphalia,
Germany, and left Stephen a fortune,
a really big bunch of money, and
Brother Caraway was provided at
last with amply sufficient means to
supply himself with fuel of the sort
he thought would generate the great
est amount of steam in his mental
boiler.
Fond OF Nature.
stephen was always very fond
of nature. 1t sort of uplifted him
and made him think great thoughts
of all that, and SO when he got his
money he stopped grinding out things
long enough to buy him a place in
the country, and a nice place it was,
wher you could see the sky and the
fleeing clouds and the trees and the
hills. 1t was, in short, a place where
nature was at home and Stephen en-
joyed it all enormously, and then
when he had got everything nicely
settled he thought it was about time
to resume work with his ideal fuel.
Somehow, it didn't produce the
expected results. He would come out
on the veranda after as good a break
fast as any man could desire-it was
summer when he opened up this
place in the country-and sit down
and look around, and it certainly
was beautiful, and soothing, very
soothing, but not stimulating, at least
not to Stephen.
''He would go up to his study and
sit down to write at a window that
looked out on the blue sky and things
and he'd get a pretty good start and
then the first thing you knew his
ideas would run off into the ground
or more probably up into the air, and
then Stephen would think that he
wasn't feeling just like work that
morning, and he'd go out and take a
ride around the country.
ITO condense things somewhat
now, Stephen had just what he want
ed to eat, and he travelled, and com
muned with nature, and enjoyed ev-
erything immensely, including every
breath he drew, for about two years
and then he began to worry.
THE fuel hadn't worked well. III
all that time he hadn't done anything
to amount to anything, and now h,
began to worry, which was all tn,
worse for Stephen, because he wa
naturally of a chronic c~heerfulnes

"All of which goes to show that
while Welsh coal will produce the
best and most uniform results under

Welsh rabbits and other such deli

Agent Maddox is quick to grasp the
right idea.
The Daily Record Kicker a short
time ago called attention of the busi-
ness men of the city to the fact that
Canon City has been ruinously dis
Icriminated against in freight rates
both into and out OF the city. and that
there Is no reason why such condition
should continue under the new inter
state commerce law, which goes into
effect the first OF the coming year. and
that the matter should be taken up at
once by our commercial organization
and vigorously looked after.

of the street being macadamized the
Auto Club would no doubt be quite
willing to transfer the fund to the
proper committee.
The dissemination against Canon
City in freight rates from the view OF

of Denver and Pueblo. and further

value. Mr.. Beard has lately returned
