is of the opinion that the comforting

Mr.. Meighen is one of the ab1est and

The tax commission is an experiment.
By the time the next legislature meets
it will have been afforded an oppor-

ulous fashions in headwear and

threaten to go about hatless unless
the new styles are amended. These
styles, according to samples on exhi-
bition at the Chicago convention of
milliners, certainly run to extremes,
the hats consisting of an inverted fry
ing-pan shape top with two or three
feet of feathers and yard or two of
gewgaws dangling over the edge.
This is the first time in history, per-
haps, that women have rebelled at the
"latest fashions,' and they should be
given credit for beginning to look at
these things from commonsense
viewpoint. 49, =

Scotch collie belonging to j. c..
Mills of Preston, this state, which
was bitten by a rattlesnake, buried
itself up to the neck in a mudhole for
eight days and emerged therefrom
freed from all effects of the poison.
There is no reason to doubt this
story, for upon many occasions dogs
have been known to resort to this
remedy. And dogs must be given
credit for the intelligence they possess.
Had some man been bitten by that

sufficient whisky to send him to king

The government forest service has
made arrangements for the collection
OF large quantity of tree seeds for
the purpose of testing the broadcast
plan of reforestration, and the bulk
will be obtained from the stores OF
squirrels, as these little animals
hoard none but the choicest seeds.
This is proceeding which can be
characterized as nothing less than in
human. To rob these pretty. harm.

winters food supply which they have
worked industriously to accumulate,
and thus bring them face to face with
starvation, is no credit to those who
engage in such work. It is even a
greater crime than shooting the little
fellows as they disport among the
treetops.

established. While the savings banks
in which small deposi could be
made-would doubtless prove of ma

by encouraging spirit of economy
and thrift, the parcels post would, in
our opinion, prove detrimental to
the business of the country merchant

alogue houses to transport their
goods at much less cost than they are
now required to pay in shipping by
express.

Fear is expressed by many dwellers

hosts from foreign lands effect en-

foundation. Sufficient vessels will re-

there is not nation on earth which
possesses the temerity to land
troops in country where annihila-
tion stares such troops in the face.
American history contains lessons for
invaders.

general opinion is that he never in

Gently, and the hope is expressed that
there will be no difficulty in future in
keeping up the compliments of ships.
There will not be if those who have
the management of affairs study out
as good a plan of keeping the men
after they get them. The difficulty of
holding them has always been the
chief trouble of our navy in time of
peace.-San Francisco Chronicle.
And the principal reason, it is
said, why thissdimculty of holding the
men exists is because they are placed
under the command of upstart xmid-
shipmen directly they enter the serv-
ice, and that these middies abuse the
authority reposed in them by subject
ing the men to gross indignities. No
American with any manhood will,long
submit to such treatment as is i'm
posed by these pompous midshipmites.
There is, however, another reason
the fact that young men can secure
better wages engaged in almost any
other pursuit.
