Seattle for two weeks looking after the
manufacture Of specially construct
ed machinery and when all this is com

in real earnest. The work now under

Martins Revenge.

A correspondent tells the story Of
two house martins nests built against
an attic window Of farm, to which
the birds came for several successive
years. Last spring, however, before
they arrived, 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 a 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.

SAVING "HeI,o" 70 Heart rhrobs.

ut is a curious thing" said prom
inent lecturer recently, how some
books have strong radiating person
ality, SO that you feel like saying
'Howdy' every time you come across
them. Last Christmas / visited friends
back at the old home on the farm.
When the supper dishes had been put
away, the chores done and the evening
lamp lighted we gathered beside the
organ for good old fashioned Sing
On the center table were strewn the
Christmas tree on the evening before.
CHANGING over them I suddenly ex-
claimed Hello! my good friend,
Hello!' and as the others looked up
with surprise. picked up copy of
Heart Throbs' and read to them from
its pages the piece spoke in
school 40 years ago.
THAT was enough to set in motion
the friendly entertaining spirit Of
Heart Throbs, and the music was for
gotten as we took turns reading the
humorous and pathetic bits Of prose
and verse that have been preserved
in this wonderful volume. Some books
have great literary value, some have
historical significance, but Heart
Throbs is the only book know that
slaps you on the back in a friendly
sort Of way, suiting itself to your
moods and proving faithful to every
emotion. Next to my love Of the Bible

WIEN MONEY WAS SCARCE.
Unobtalnable During Period
Of Missouri's History.

However scarce money may be at
times at the present" said an old Mis-
sourian, "the oldest inhabitants will
recall when 1t was almost unobtain-
able and other commodities had to be
used as media of exchange. The
VOLTS scalp was worth dollar be-
cause 1t was a state bounty upon the
death of a wolf, and venison hams
and deer skins also had purchasing
value. Skins of the fur bearers were
likewise abundant and valuable. When
the first sheriff of Audrain county, In
1897, went to Jefferson City to deliver
the county revenue, he met an old
friend on the way who, needing
money, wanted to borrow the actual
coin part of the county's revenue. The
good-hearted sheriff lent 1t to him and
went on to the capital and delivered
only the scalps. BY the time of the
next settlement the loan was repaid
and the sheriff made his next settle
ment complete. No note or other OBJ
legation than the mere word was
given. Herald.

"The late Admiral Walker" said a
naval officer in Washington, believed
heartily in marriage for sailors. He al
ways urged sailors to wed. Nautical
bachelors were held up to scorn by
him.
'Strolling with him in New York
one day we met a young ship-broker.
Admiral Walker hailed the young man
delightedly. He clapped him on the
back, wrung his hand and cried:
Congratulations on your marriage,
my young friend. No more sewing on
of buttons now, eh?'
No, indeed said the ship-broker
sharply. 4 wear belt now. 1t keeps
me so busy raising money to pay my
wife's bills that / have no time to

"The people and the corporations"

chicken and very small duck on the
table and the woman, pausing with
the carving knife raised, said: Johnny.

DR.. JEKYLL AND MR.. HYDE
THE PLAY TONIGHT

Lee Willard and his company are
making a splendid impression on Car
son theater goers.
A Western Gentleman, last nights
play, gave the greatest of a1isfac-
ton. And a large audience Witnessed
the clever acting of Mr.. Will;-'> ali
his excellent company.
Concerning tonight's play DR..
Jekyll and Mr. Hyde the Reno Ga
zette has the following to say:
A gasping audience sat clutchinS
the arms of their seats at Mckissick's 5
last night, and enjoyed Lee Willards
production of DR.. Jekyll and Mr..
Hyde" From the very first scene
to the dropping Of the curtain on the
PROSTATE body of Hyde, the suicide
the interest was intense. At some
stages the very air of the theater
seemed to palpitate with the emo
tions of the audience
Some actors have played the part
better, but none ever played it with
more fervid earnestness. Sometimes
| it seemed that the man was more
than half mad, in reality. And, in,
| deed, it has been rumOred that the
nervous strain on the tragedian is 50
great whe n he is showing in the par
ticular bill that if he should play II
! for a week running he would be III
! danger of a mental breakdown. Once
when the actor made his first appear
ance as a mad man, the effect was
most apparent upon the audience
Many gasped, and several nervous
women in the audience screamed.
The play itself is recognized as one
of the greatest dramatic allegories
depicting the two opposing natures II
man, which are ever warning for the
mastery. To portray in one minute
these two natures-the god-nature
and the devil-in their opposing ex
tremes is a trick which requires the
greatest skill in a man. 1t can only
be done by the injection of great per
sonal feeling. And Lee Willard is
not underserving in credit for the
spirit in which he manipulated his dit
ficult role last evening.
