SOLOMON ON HousEcLEANINe

My son, consider now the woman
that cleaneth house.
She ariseth in the morning and her
husband yieweth her with alarm, for
she girdeth her hair in knot like unto
doughnut.
And she attireth herself in skirt
that hath neither front nor back but
looketh like unto piano cover,
And she putteth on a waist which she
hath cherised even from the days when
they wore big sleeves,
And she putteth upon her feet shoes
like unto them that are worn by the
minstrels
And she sayeth unto her husband:
"Verily, this house is fright. and l
am going to put things to rights"
And her husband layeth down the
paper, for the murder news cannot
thrill him.. neither doth he care for
presidential booms,
For he knoweth that nothing can
happen out in the big world like unto
what will happen unto his home TINS
day.
And he goeth away unto his business
and cometh not home until 1t is even
ing; yea, until 1t is dark.
And he firdeth a colored man even
then beating rugs in the side yard with
his golf sticks, the which have been
broken one by one.
And his cigar jar had been enptleu
of cigars and made to hold taoks.
And they have taken his sweater 10
wash windows with,
And there is nothing in the house TO
eat
Save what was left from yesterday,
and it is hidden beneath fourteen nat
irons and half box of laundry soap In
the pantry
And the wife of his bosom hath soot
on her nose and fire in her eyes, and she
looketh like unto the breaking up OF a
hard winter,
And she bursteth into tears because
he doth not kiss her and call her an
angel for working so hard,
And she maketh him work hair the
night carrying things into the house.
So that he spraineth his back lifting
the piano and smasheth his thumb be-
tween the wall and book case, and
falleth over against the staircase when
he taketh an armful of chairs upstairs
! and spraineth his wrist
And she sayeth that II he talks TO
her that way again she will go home to
| her mother

tered the pool room. The proprietor was
hastily called and questioned.
whats the matter with the wet de-
partment, that it s closed?" asked my new
friend.
'.It isn't, is itY' queried the BOSS in
| turn. "If it Is that blamed man of mine
must have just run off on his own hook
without telling me anything about 1t.
Wait minute; I'll go over and take
care of you myself"
Hastily he summoned an assistant to
take charge of the pool patrons, and then
again led the way toward the lunch room.
Producing key he unlocked the door
and we entered.
Along the side of the room on the left
stretched lunch counter of the tradi-
tional type, albeit presenting a somewhat
deserted and unused appearance. On the
right was an ordinary counter, behind
which was a well filled "empty bottle
rack and an ice box. from which at my
behest the proprietor drew forth two cold
bottles of beer.
Beer Carried No Label
whats the brand l asked. noticing
that the bottles were unlabeled.
sAnaheim," he replied, "but nothing is
labeled in Riverside" Whereby l sup
pose hangs some loophole for escape
under pretense that the contents are not
known to be Deer. j KNOW IL WAS pSer,
though, for l drank enough to discover
that for myself, lanel or no label.
Mindful of his ease, my companion, who
gave his name as ED Jones. just plain
Ed Jones'" had pulled over stool for
himself from the lunch counter and l
followed suit.
While we sat there drinking and talk
ing two separate demands for "a bottle
Of beer" were filled by the man behind
the counter, and the men purchasing the
LIQUID entered openly from the street
without pretense or secrecy.
So much for the beer resorts OF River
side.
For those who crave stronger stimu-
lants am told that the securing is mace

sumed "for medicinal purposes" l saw
one such document, and was told by lts
holder that many other residents OF the
town carry similar credentials OF mem-
bership in the unique organization.
1t is broadly limited on the streets that
guests at the leading hotels of the pretty
little town do not want for spirituous re-
freshments, but of that cannot speak
from personal knowledge, much as / am
inclined to believe the truth OF the asser-

Denocracy and RowIna

The sport that best combines team play
with the sense of rhythm is rowing in a
crew, says Joseph Lee, in Charities
and the Commons. I wonder whether II
is coincidence that the democratic ma
tions of the world have been the rowing
nations; the Greeks (of whose great ma
tional epics the one celebrates the ad-
ventures of galley captain and his Grew,
while the other. though 1t deals with
fighting on the land, shows an ever
present consciousness of the curved ships
lying on the beach, and breaks off to give
a catalogue of the same); and the Saxons,
Danes, Norsemen-prates all-whose life
was carried on in whaleboats chiefly pro-
pelled by oars

D. Ward King, the road builder,
who was here last week said that the
little Extra" gotten out by the
REGISTER to advertise his meeting was
one OF the best things for the purpose
he ever saw. He ordered five hundred
copies OF it, which he will use as
samples to show other communities
and papers how they DO things in
Brookings, where the folks are alive
and coming.
The Farrankop and Comstock
families went to Lake Campbell the
Fourth and camped over Sunday.
The lake IS getting to be very popular
as a summer resort and every day
and especially on Sundays, the banks
are lined with picnic parties who come
TO spend the day. Mr.. Simpkins, who
lives at the north end OF the lake, runs
a small store for the accommodation
OF visitors and his prices are very
reasonable. He has a number OF good
boats to rent, and a very enjoyable
day can be spent boating and fishing.
A bowery is located at the north end
of the lake, where a dance is held
every two weeks.
