A Dare Devil Deed.

Denver, Aug. 4.-Walking acro,'
South Boulder canon on a tight wire
In rainstorm, in order not TO disap-
point the crowd of eXcursiouists which
were at Eldorado Springs, is the dare
devil feat which Ivy Baldwin of this
city performed.
The canon is 5S2 feet deep and $50
feet across. yet at this dizzy height
the wire slippery with rain, the guy
ropes slack from the same cause, the
performer slowly and carefully, while
the crowd on either side below held
their breath. crossed this chasm OF
death.
Baldwin slipped once at the start,
but nerved himself to the task and,
once started. was perfectly at home
In the middle of the abyss he stopped
and looked around to disprove the
statement that aerial walkers could
not take their eyes from the rope.

70 RENovATE THE CARPET.
Treatment That win Make 1t Almost
Like New.

Many a perfectly good carpet be-
comes shabby and Worn-looking with
out being actually old. The figures lose
their brightness and the grain is
rough and unkempt looking. Here is
a simple process by which the carpet
or rug will once more look present
able, and as good as new. 1t is vouch'
ed for by contemporary.
Cut an ounce of yellow soap into
squares, and with them make lather
with pint of clear boiling water. Add
to this 1ather quart of hot water and
an ounce of borax. Place the mixture
on the range, and bring the entire
preparation to boil. Remove it, set
it to cool, and when quite cold add one
ounce each of alcohol and ammonia
and half an ounce of glycerin.
Wipe over only small portion OF
the carpet at time, and rub vigor-
ously with a clean flannel (Which
should be repeatedly turned as it be.
comes soiled) dipped into the mix
ture, until finally all the spots are re.
moved and the color revived.
The result will be surprising, for
the change and improvement are re.
markable.

MARK TwAlN,s RENTED CAT.
tlumorist Furnishes Something for
Scribes to Puzzle Over.

Mark Twain, as is his custom, hides
himself during the summer from the
head hunters, those persons seeking
autographs, photographs, or inter-
views. This year he selected Tuxedo
Park as his retreat, renting an old
colonial house until the latter part Of
September, when he returned to his
New York home. There, during the
heated days, Mr.. Clemens wandered
about the country byways or spent
the time in various shady hooks in
his grounds.
A visitor who succeeded In discov-
ering his whereabouts found the great
author in his famous suit of white
flannels, seated under tree petting
a kitten.
Where did you get it," queried the
friendly intruder.
For a. moment there was a twinkle
in the aged humorist's eyes; it was
succeeded by solemn look as he re-
piled: II rent it from a neighbor.
You see, I cannot afford cat-not
even young one.''
Subsequent inquiry proved at least
the first part of Mr.. Clemens state
ment to be true. He had actually
rented the kitten for the summer sea-
son. What does he pay for it? No
body knows what Mark Twain pays
for anything. All the world is inter-
ested only in what Mark Twain Is
paid.-The Sunday Magazine.

Martins Revenge.

A correspondent tells the story OF
two house martins nests built against
an attic window of a farm, to which
the birds came for several successive
years. Last spring, however, before
they arrived, a sparrow took up her
abode in one of the nests.
Shortly after the martins returned
as usual, and one day the farm people
noticed that the hole of the nest
which the sparrow occupied had been
blocked up. Next morning boy
climbed up to ascertain the meaning
of this, and not finding any outlet
broke away part Of the nest, to find
the poor little sparrow dead on her
eggs.
The house martins had walled her
up for daring to take possession Of
their house.-Country Life.
