an outstanding bracket shelf for the

a French coffee pot, stands on one OF
the brackets OF the serving table and
boils merrily until required.

Mistakes We Make.

Moths do not eat furs or cloths.
They lay their eggs in these rich
stuffs, and It is the worm from the
eggs that do the eating. There are no
shooting stars. Stars are immense
bodies. many times larger than the
earth. The so-called shooting stars
that glide so splendidly across the
nocturnal sky are meteors-fragments
weighing as a rule. but a few pounds.
Sunstroke is really heat apoplexy. It
Is the moisture in the air. rather than
the actual rays OF the sun, that causes
sunstroke. In dry climates, such as
Cairo's with a summer temperature of
122 degrees in the shade, sunstroke
is much rarer than with us.

THE RECENT
JAIL DELIVERY
IN UNFORTUNATE OCCURRENCE BUT
BEING USED FOR PARTISAN ENDS.
The Cages or Cells Found Defective,
Were Accepted By the County
After Careful Inspection and
Report By COmpe-
tent Mechanic.

AS has already been made widely
known through the public prints, on
last Friday morning it was discovered
that eleven prisoners confined in the
jail of Tazewell county had escaped by
cutting the bars or rods of the cells or
cages and also the bars in a window at
the southeast corner of the cell build
ing. This has caused much adverse
criticism of the board of supervisors,
the committee that superintended the
construction of the building and the
county jailer. 1t was a very unfortu-
nate occurrence and should be regretted
by all good citizens. But strange to
say there have been some who claim to
be good citizens who have exulted over
the misfortune and who Immediately
began to use it with almost fiendish de-
light for partisan or political ends.
Ever since .he Jail was built certain
men in the town and county have been
trying to make capital by showing that
the methods used by the supervisors in
its construction were not proper and
that the building had cost too much;
but no person had ever expressed q
doubt that the Jail was as secure and
complete in detail as 1t was possible to
make one with q reasonable expendi-
ture Of money. Now. the fault-6nders
