Want Servant Girls Badly.

Spokane, Wash, February IA
shortage of competent servant girls
here has resulted in the calling of a
mass meeting in Masonic Temple for
the evening of February g. when
plans will he formed to bring young
women from the East and South to
supply the demand and to establish
free training school for immi-
grants. Ten prominent women head
the movement. Ben II. Rice, Sec
rotary of the 10000 Club, said TO-
day that $500 servant girls could
find immediate employment in Spo-
kane homes. Girls demand from $35
to $40 a month, and get it, yet the
quality of the help that can be pro-
cured is far below the average.
a delegation of matrons will proba-
bly, be sent to various States for the
purpose of engaging help.

In Memory.

OF Mrs. Mary Felix, wife of Mr.. Thos
Felix, who departed this life Jan
uary "a, 1907 after a lingering ill
ness. All that loving hands could do
was done. but in vain. She was a
dutiful wife, a kind and affectionate
mother, always looking on the bright
side of life, ever ready to help her
friends and neighbors, and speaking
words of comfort to those in sorrow.
We will miss her greatly, for to know
her was to love her. She was type
of the true christian. Weep not,
dear husband and sons and friends.
our loss is her gain.
Her suffering is no more.
She has crossed to the other shore;
The pains of death are past,
Labors and sorrows cease;
Lies warfare closed at last
Her soul is found in peace.
One Who Loved Her.

less with hands and feet frozen and
suffering from an attack of kidney
trouble, Cornelius O'Meara, aged thirty
seven, a prosperous farmer who lives
alone in East Hartland, lay in his
house a prisoner for three days with
out fire or food.
lie was busy caring for his stock
last Thursday when he was attacked
with acute pains which so affected
him that he was barely able to drag
himself to the house. The fire went
out and he was unable to lift hand or
foot until Monday, when he conceiv-
ed the plan of working his rocking
chair along the floor by moving his
body. In this way he got some food
and though suffering agony at every
move, he managed to work his chair
out to the door and down to the
barn, where he loosened one of the
horses, threw the harness on and
hitching the traces to the sleigh
crawled with great difficulty into
the bottom of the sleigh.
The horse knowingly took him to
the nearest neighbor. Both his feet
will have to be amputated and his
recovery is doubtful.

AWFUL COLD
Of the Yukon Regions What
Happens at Sixty Be-

E l.. Parsons, an old-tlme Yukon
miner, has arrived from the frozen
North and tells some remarkable
stories of happenings at Dawson City
when the thermometer drops many
degrees below zero. In converse
tion he said:
, Strange manifestations appear as
the result of the extreme cold One

a great white cloud of smoke and va
por, resembling a steamboat in it's
whiteness, and this cloud of smoke
streams away for so to 100 feet,
mingling with the other white-gray
mist or haze that remains permanent
in the atmosphere of the town like
more degrees below zero. The white
gray fog is not a fog as you know
it, but frozen mist, and every man,
woman, child, animal, and even the
fire that burns, is throwing out mois

it drops through the frosty air.

steam while the temperature was 60
below zero, with icicles hanging to
the valve, having formed from con-
densation.

them in cold water for half a day
before using, and the frost will short

article. To attempt to thaw them out
by the more rapid process of fire
or hot water, spoils them for USE"
Mr.. Parsons tells some remarkable
stories of thawing out a frozen foot,
ear or hand by immersing the froz-
en- member in coal oil for, some time
often for several hours. He says:

is not hearsay. A man from our
camp was found several years ago
after he had been out all night while
the thermometer was so degrees below
zero, and both his hands were frozen
to the wrists. He was taken into camp
and his hands soaked in coal oil five
hours. All the frost came out with

doctors were amazed, as they thought
amputation would be necessary. His
hands were white and hard as mar
