is devoid of vocal effect, from the fact
that the vocal instrument no longer fur

without a voice, and the voice has been
depleted" Another says: 'Oh, what a
disappointment Mary Gardens voice was!
All she could do was to deliver her tones
in a declamatory style. Little If any
voice was there to sing with" The

OFFICERS after
ELUSIVE MIR. FOX

Chief of Police Poole and Deputy
Sheriff McGilvray, with a posse and
pack of hounds, had(a Chase Thurs
day night, near Browns postoffice,
that lasted until daylight.
For some time the people of that
district have been terrorized by one
Fox, who has committed many depre-
dations about the homes of the farm
ers and become so bold that it was
found necessary to ask for aid, and
for this reason Chief Poole and Dep
uty McGilvray summoned posse,
secured the best hounds to be had in
the county and determined to capture
or kill Fox.
Fox is we'll known in the neighbor-
hood and has been frequently seen
prowling about the homes of the set
tiers and Thursday night a deter
| mined effort was made to get him.
but it ended in failure as by some
means the dogs were thrown off the
scent about daylight, after hare
run of nearly eight hours, and Fox
made his getaway.
The officers returned home yester
day forenoon, tired and worn, while
the grey fox is still at liberty to ca
all the farmers chickens he cal
catch.

CARE OF THE SICK ROOM.
Above All Things the Walls Should
Be Kept Dry.

! When the bedroom becomes a. sick
room there is an added reason why ex-
IRENE precautions should be used to
keep the room in thoroughly sanitary
condition.
Above all things, the bedroom should
| never be damp. 1t should be nice and
| dry, always warm and comfortable in
winter, cool and airy in summer, and
bright and sunny some parts of the
day.
If there is any suspicion Of damp
ness in a bedroom it is probably due,
it there is wallpaper on the WALL to
the absorption of water by the paper
which frequently acts as a plotting pa
per and holds quantities of water in it..
The use of wallpaper on walls is to
be deplored; it means disease, i'll
health and unhappiness. 1t is fire.
quently the cause of lung trouble, not
only because of it's dampness but also
because Of it's power to retain infec-
ton of many kinds.
The desired method of treating a
bedroom wall is to tint it for the ala
bastined wall is perfect wall 1t
never flakes off, chips or peels. It alb
serbs moisture and expels it, it opens
the pores of the plaster and makes a
room livable and breathable.
The floor in the bedroom should
have light, cleanable, dainty rugs that
can be easily shaken and a floor that
Is thoroughly oiled or Vanished, that
will not absorb moisture. The cracks
in the floor should be thoroughly filled
and covered: Woodwork in the bed
room should be attended to carefully,
window stills should be thoroughly var
nished or waxed, and the window cas-
ings kept in perfect order. The doors
should be wiped off frequently as also
should be all the standing woodwork
in the bedroom, as the presence Of
dust on woodwork is a menace to
health as we'll as an evidence of poor
housekeeping.

Canine flesh could not stand that, and
away went rabbit, dog and cart in
widest confusion, while Jumps Of coal
and torn bits Of sacking flew into the

The runaway was truly a. misfor-

on which such an accident could have

A coal train was due at the siding
in a half-hour, and the children hur-
ried along the rails as fast as their
burdens would permit. They hid their
sacks in the bushes and squatted on
the embankment while Billy explained
a plan to his sister.

yelled cheerful Hi, you old slab of

piece of sod into the cab with his
greeting.
The man looked out angrily, to be
met by an out-thrust tongue and a
pair Of insulting heels.
He retorted promptly, but his orig
inality did not approach the boys,
and Billy saw with delight that his
rage was becoming rapidly of kind
that required other than vocal express
sion. The ACTIVITY was too slippery

that at last brought the result expect
ed. The Infatuated engineer climbed
into the tender, seized piece of coal
and flung it at his tormentor Billy
was in ecstasy and increased his ef
forts. The fireman joined the engi-
neer, and together they directed their
ammunition against the derisive figure
above them. The brakeman added to
the fusillade, while Billy danced excit-
eddy, oblivious that an occasional shot
reached it's mark.
Billy was touched by Lucy's devo-
ton.
II tell youk what, sister," he offered
magnificently one day, you must go
to the school, too. They's girls there,
and they takes girls when they's r.,
because they amt so many of 'em,
and they learns EN- to sew awful nice
and to make light bread. You and
nell go together
ooh, Billy" Lucy's pigtail quivered
excitedly, and in her nervousness she
heightened a slit already torn in her
brief skirt. "Oh, Billy, do you reckon
/ ever could get to go? Do you
reckon we ever could get money
enough? Do you reckon paw n nav
would let me? Do you low the man
would take me?'
She poured out her questions until
Billy found himself astonished at her
emotion, and swept away by it.
Course you can get to go. I'll fix
it with dad,' he said grandly. Maybe
hit won't be so soon as if [ went alone,
but We'll go together;' and Lucy never
suspected the disappointment with
which his mental eye saw the Birney
School carpenter shop withdraw still
farther into the future.
l. During the second winter the de-
mand for coal increased so much that
Billy arranged with some boys about
four miles down the road to cover a
couple of miles of track on each side
of their fathers farms.
Now it seemed almost sure that both
he and Lucy would be able to go to
Birney Creek in the autumn. They
came to this conclusion after carefully
counting their hoard for the hundredth
time, in the light of letter received
from Mr. Mcdowell. Assisted by the
postmaster, Billy had addressed Ia
bOrious series of inquiries to the prin-
cipal of the school, and his reply had
been most gratifying.
Then came delightful month, when
all that Billy earned was clear gain,
and when Lucy helped her mother
make the clothes for which they had
worked so hard.
"Of course she said to Billy, "of
| course I'll sew right smart better than
this next year, but I'll hem your pant
legs now, anyway"
At last the sun rose on a brilliant
September morning when Lucy, a
sturdy little figure in blue calico, the
crook of her stubby pig.tail lifting the
cape of her new sunbonnet, packed
their clothes and their food into the
two baskets that Billy had made for
the purpose. And Billy, a far different
boy from the ragged and a1ndisciplined
urchin who had started on the same
expedition two years \ before, slung
them on his back. ~: Il = W.: =.
