Dave Eau Comes Back al the POSI-.


David Day, of the Durango Demo-
crat, who was indicted by the federal
grand jury for publishing obscene mat
ter in regard to the Thaw trial, and
who was denounced by the Denver Post
shortly after for the "free and easy
language he had been in the habit of
using in his publication, comes back at
the proprietors of the Post and excori-
ates them in this style:

l notice, or rather my attention has
been called to criticism in the Denver
Post of the 18th in regard to my indict-
ment before the federal grand jury.
Now, this is not the first or second time
that Durango's "moralists" have at
tempted to indict me, or been guilty of
moral sorties against me.
In 1892 was severely criticised and
denounced for rebuking a citizenship
that permitted the main street for a
parade ground and the dance hall band
to preface the parade when a dead pros
titute occupied the entire interior of the
hearse, and at an hour when school
children were on the street.
was also criticised and verbally re-
buked for making indirect mention of a
scandal that separated man and wife.
l have been called down for mention
ing, indirectly Il am always charitable), ,
the extreme moralist who preferred his
typewriter to his wife in a country ride
yet none of the moralists mentioned
have been guilty of subscribing for the
Durango Democrat.
have been arraigned verbally, and
when l was not present, by those who
have been declared perjurers upon the
witness stand-those who have been
guilty of perjury and arraigned for per-
jury and gross immortality, and they are
yet in Durango and the exercises are
not over. Not so far as l extend.
All such maneuvers do not trouble
me, but when the outfit that engineers
the Denver Post becomes critically ac-
tive, then become busy-very busy.

all know, by Bonfils & Tammen, fine

giant brace of male harlots as ever as
saulted American journalism, as fine a
duet of unbridled and unlicensed scarlet
sons as ever hit the pike.
1t is Ouida and Zolo combine. To
settle the question of morality between
two such sons, edged tools are essential.
AS moralists they are stripped from
necklace to slipper; from dandruff to

Sometimes snow banks up against the
chimney which melts n little bit every
day and at night freezes into an ice
bank. that changes the situation
around the chimney considerably.
After awhile the rain comes, some
times in hurry. and before the leo
bank has time to get out OF the way
somebody down below gets bath
and some expensive decorations ara
spoiled. 1t is not every house plan
that will permit placing the chimney
in .he peak Of the roof. but that style
of plan is to be preferred when all
other things are right for it.

build and one that is understood by
every house carpenter. 1t is right in
every respect, even to the placing of
the chimney.
There is great advantage in hav-
ing the chimney in the center of the
house. You never have trouble with
n roof leaking around a chimney that
is built through the peak, but the
amount of expressive profanity
wasted on chimneys near the caves is
tremendous. When the water races
down the roof it seems to prefer an
outlet around the chimney. 1t runs
down towards the ground easier at
this spot than it does at the caves,
at least great many men feel that
way at times.
Theoretically it Is easy to steer the
water around the chimney, but theory

have the whole thing movable. a
cheap frame is made to fit the window
and this frame is seated with loosg
cushions. The ends and back are
covered with tufted material to match
the cushions. This tufting should
reach up the back and turn over or
the window side and extend down as
far as the window stool. The ends of
the window seat may be higher thar
the sides, but not necessarily SO, as
both shape and design must conform
to the other furniture in the room to
certain extent. 1t is more difficult
to fit the tufted covering when the
ends are higher than the sides, but it
often gives the finished work a much
better appearance.
The front of the window seat is cov-
cred with material the same as the
cushions and back, and it may be put
on smooth or plated. A smooth finish
Is best, because it does not collect
dust; often. however, the plated
front looks better.
Sometimes drawers for magazines
and books are built in the seat ana
these must be considered in the GOV
ering. Sometimes the seat is made
to lift up. There are as many styles
in window seats rs in any other
article of furniture, but they are diff.
ferent from the fact that each ore is
made to fit certain niche, where /.
is expected to remain.

made too nice to use, which Is q
great mistake. II is much better to
have washable covers that may be
easily removed. OF course ever;
woman likes to have something c.
this kind as neat and elaborate as
possible, but as general thing pil

as to look at.
A seat big enough to fit this window
should have seven or eight pillows
piled up at the ends and scattered
along the side On top of the tuftet

wide rail on top of the back especial
ly made to hold pillows. In sucl

That our American forests abound In
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues Is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the untu-
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This informa-
tion, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.
