Be a Booster.

We're you ever down or your
luck?
Did you ever lean back in your
chair and find that you could not
by any exertion of your will, pull
those blue glasses from your eyes!
Then did you ever have the ''best
fellow in all the world, or the bes!
little woman" lay his hand-or hers
ON your shoulder and say, "This
is only the first round; come, mix ii
hard and the fight is yours?" Or,
Cheer up. boy; there are better
times coming?"
What was it? Sympathy.
Some men scorn sympathy. Can
fight their own battles. Don t
want any soft fools butting in on
their troubles. Yes, but these
hard shells aren't your best friends.
1t takes just a little bit of a boost
sometimes to set you on edge again
And what is boost but bit of
well timed sympathy? It's the
spice in the sauce OF life. Too much
spoils the sauce, but little of 1t
helps NIGHTLY.
A lot of people complain every
day that they never had chance
that nobody ever gave them a lift.
Perhaps it is because they never
gave anybody else lift. A good
wholesome sort of sympathy is the
easiest thing in the world to give.
A bit of boost cost the booster
nothing, but it may turn impending
failure into success for the boosted.
1t has a ''double back action"
tendency, too. The booster often
finds himself boosted by boosting,

feel that old crouch setting on you.

ing word to somebody you know de-
serves it.
It'll do you good. Try it.-Ex.

OF the new members have ex-
pressed the opinion that Mr..

will be made. Supervisor of
Assessment George F. Morgan
has presented his resignation
and this will have to be accepted
by the Board and a successor
elected. Mr.. Morgan will spend
a greater part Of the assessment
period out of the state and he
felt that in justice to the people
he should resign so that a new
man might be elected who would
be able to give proper attention
to the work. Mr.. Morgan has
occupied this position ever since
the office was created.
The question ola re-equal,4a
tion of the property of the county
will also occupy the attention of
the board. It has been decided
by those interested in the ques-
tion to ask the tax com mission
for an adjournment of the hear
ing until April 9th, SO that a
plan OF action may be formulated
by the board at it's meeting on
the 22nd. This was decided by

Poor Old John D. Rocks

Pay has deminished so that all he receives now is only $21.00 DOT minute, or twelve hundred and sixty dollars per day Now isn't that ter rible, when he could just as well as not, make more, but lately he's afraid of dear old Uncle Sam. We'll, there's one good feature in John D.. R's makeup, he never dabbled in ward politics, but when the ward heelers get through their wrangle and select their office-holders, then if John D. sees where new laws made to counteraet the old ones will help him to make a little more pay each day they say" he and his hired help know just how to get to work. But, John D. never would have made the success that he has made were it not the good sense he has showed by living a strictly temperance life; he always believed in drinks that were strengthening to the brain, nerves and system in general, and John has the nerve but no intoXl- cants to any great measure for him. No sirree, the drinks that muddle your brain, cause you to have a big head in the morn and above all that make you sometimes see snakes, &c. has no use in Johns home. Tea, coffee or cocoa are beverages good enough for anyone, and if you pur- chase the kind we sell you'll receive the benefit from the very first trial, and from now until election day we wish to remind the politicians that and to the women folks, please tell them we give teddy bear with each pound of our warranted good baking powder, 45 cents per pound, at

BOYS TRY TO FOLLOW IN
FR0NTIERSMEN'S STEPS
Five Lads Are Arrested Charged with
Committing Many Thefts and Bur-
giaries in Neiehborhood of
Their Homes

Their youthful minds evidently filled
with stories of trail and forest and un-
able to secure funds to carry out their
ideas of wild life, five boys are in the
detention home, charged with petty lar
ceny
The boys are Louis Pescolina, Oscar
1Aosack, Lloyd Coghlan, Howard Allen
being IA years of age, and because of
this looked upon as the leader.
Bicycles, rifles pies and other things
are contained in the list the youngsters
are said to have stolen. The period of
their operations extended more than a
week, and the rendezvous from which
they operated being located near Thirty
sixth and jefferson streets.
BY breaking into house on Norman
die street about two weeks ago the boys
are said to have secured weapons, with
out which no true follower of the from
tiersman of bygone days was ever with
out.
Two rifles were stolen, together with
a gold pen, probably to record and hand
down to admiring posterity their thrill
ing experiences and narrow escapes from
death at the hand of redskin or wild
beasts fangs.
The quest for adventure led them first
to the Baldwin hills, west of the city,
ana mere lney apparently LNSu III uoupI-
full comfort, at times with larder so de-
pleted that the glories of their expedi-
tion waned.
They are said to have obtained a
precarious livelihood, however, by thefts
of food. Among other sufferers from
their depredations was pie peddler who
lost a number of pies from his wagon
as It stood near his home.
Suspicion pointed to the boys shortly
after number of thefts had been COM
mitted, and a patrolman of the Univer-
sity station was given charge of the
case. After working on it for few
days he arrested the boys, and, according
to the police, a confession was obtained.

Can Los Angeles
Absorb 1t?
This Is the Most Musical City on the
Pacific Coast and Still We Are
Taxing Its Capacity
to the Limit
We Want Our Money Back

Over $65, 900 worth of musical merchan-
disc forced on the market inside of five
weeks. Nothing in the world but
prices can possibly accomplish the re-
suit the BARTLETT MUSIC COMPANY
has set out to attain. Ordinarily it
would take us with our immense facili-
ties and large stock almost two years
to sell this amount of small musical
instruments and sheet music. Every
one who knows anything about the
retail music business will realize that
$4,000 a month in this line is a business
anyone would be proud of. Now. we
must sell over twenty times as much
in five weeks. The results of the last
week prove conclusively to us that we
are going to be able to accomplish
what we set out to do, and the three
weeks preceding Christmas is the
period when most of the Christmas
shopping is done. We are simply fore
ing the market little in advance on
account of our immense stock. There
is not a thing on our shelves nor on
the tables--which are loaded with bar
gains-but what is marked down to
cost or less. For instance. all the
popular sheet music such as you pay
department stores 23c for can be had
for 1Oc copy. All the classical music
such as teachers buy every day is
sold for 2-3 off of list prices. Never
were such prices made on such su-
narh stock of violins. S25 ones being
sold for 1910, while SO violin, which
is good enough for any one but pro-
fessional. can be had for 1886. Should
you want one for the boy to learn on
$1.70 or $190 or $2.45 will furnish you
one you will ordinarily pay from $3.50
to $3.50 for. These prices are only an
index to other goods which are on sale
and must go.s We need the room for
our pianos and positively everything
else must CO. The store will be oper
every night until Christmas
