Patriots
The Shoes That Do Not Hurt

" Patriot" shoes are made in
all the popular feathers over foot
conforming lasts, made by experts
and sewed with silk. They have
an inner sole Of ground cork that
keeps out dampness. d" Patriots
cost no more than the hurt kind.
Being Goodyear Welts they have
no wax, lacks or threads inside
to burn and blister the feet.
There is a shape, fit and a
pleasure for every foot. The star
on the heel and the 50, $50, 900. 90
capital Of Roberts, johnson &
Rand Shoe Co. are a guarantee
that the Patriot" is honestly
constructed and sure to satisfy.

Singing Hen Amazes.

Liberty, Pa.-Miss Mary Tricks
Rhode Island hen. Queen Ann"
known for miles around as the singing
chicken, burst into song the other day
in front of the Methodist church and
so amazed the worshippers that the
services were suspended temporarily.
Queen Ann" is probably the most
extraordinary fowl that ever came
from an eggshell. She was one of a
brood of II Matched under tree in
which a colony OF thrushes had made
their home, and filled the air with
their melody at early dawn.
The theory is that some prenatal
influence was exerted on the chick
before she broke through the shell
and that her unhenlike voice is the re-
suit.
Queen Ann" does not "cluck" like
other hens. Tempted with a few
grains of rye, which she seems to pre-
fer to corn, she, will trill like canary.
The volume Of sound is deeper and
not SO shrill as that Of the yellow
feathered songster, but the gradua-
lions from the sharp staccato to the
long legato are perfect.

Orient Electric Theatre viii Give In
itia Entertainment.
Oskaloosa can boast of a metropolis
tan electric theatre. Messrs. Tucker,
Bowen and Struble have had the Com
mercial restaurant room converted in
to a theatre, and with the latest NOV
ing picture machine and films will
open their new "Orient" theatre this
evening to the public. A pretty lobby
has been built with nice little box
office. Above the lobby is the ma
chine room from where the pictures
are thrown on the big screen to the
rear of the room.
The audience part of theatre is
cool and roomy. At present chairs
will be used, but later opera chairs
will be put in place. The room will
seat several hundred people.
To give their patrons the best of
everything the proprietors have Sc
cured Ed Reid of Des Moines as oper-
ator of the large moving picture ma
chine. Mr.. Reid is experienced and
has been connected with the Colonial
theatre at Des Moines for some time.
The latest mc.:!GT pictures and il
Illustrated program will form the pro
gram at present, but if business war
rants, vaudeville acts will be put on
later. Several hundred dollars has
been expended in establishing the
theatre, and the patronage of the pub
lie is deserved.

not believe that Mr. Speer would go
any farther than the end of the beaten
tourist route which terminates at the
balcony just above the main roof OF
the capitol. But the adventurous
easterner insisted he wanted to go
higher and still higher. He did not
stop even when he reached the end
of the spiral iron staircase inside the
capitol dome to which only the priv.
ileged few are admitted.
There only remained the topmost
part of the dome on which statue
is some day to be placed. This looks
like a tiny knob from below, but is
twice the height of an ordinary man,
with a dangerous outward curve on
the lower half.
I'm going as far as l can CO." Mr..
Speer informed the terrified guide
who begged him to halt there. A
guy rope fastened on the topmost part
of the dome swung within reach. He
leaned far out, grasped the rope, and
before the guide could stop him
swung his camera over his shoulder,
and went up the rope hand over hand
like sailor The iron sheathed roof
scorched his palms. Several times
he came near losing his grip on that
thin rope, all that stood between him
and horrible death of the pavement
far below. At last dizzy and exhaust.
ed he reached the topmost part of the
capitol building, and from there took
the most unique picture of the city,
and probably the only one that will
ever be taken from that spot.

worn them off had these people re-

Because she would a-swimming go
She bought bathing suit
OF brilliant blue, with row on row
OF braid on it to boot
A little scarlet rubber cap,
With shoes and stockings trim
Why, just to gaze at them a chap
Could feel his head a-swim
She donned the dashing bathing rig
And stood before the glass,
AS cute and taut and trim and trig
AS you will chance to pass.
Her eyes We're bright her checks were
pink.
Her fluffy hair in curl
And spelled marcel in every kink-
This dashing bathing girl.
She sauntered out upon the sand
And dalled in the sun,
Where up and down on every hand
The waving ripples run.
She watched the swimmers come and go
In playful, merry race,
But still the maiden fingered so
With trouble in her face.
"Come in. come I'M" they called to her.
Come in, the waters fine

Why do you sit and fret?"

The Whirlieig Spider.

Various curious lodges are employed
by insects for eluding their perse-
cutors, but none more curious than the
whirligig spiders. He has immensely
long legs and when approached begins
spinning around at such terrific speed
that it is actually impossible to see
hitn. All that is visible is slight mist
on the web. For twenty seconds at a
time this spider will keep up his fan
tastic evolutions.
