KNITTING MACHINE ROMANCE.
Invented That a Tilted Lover Might
Have His Revenge.

Romance may certainly figure in
many of the knitted waistcoats and
gorgeous stockings worn by our un-
dergraduates of to-day, but these have
not SO romantic an origin as the first
of these articles produced in this
country.
For tradition has it that William
Lee, who in the sixteenth century in
vented the knitting frame on which
both stockings and waistcoats were
produced mechanically, was driven to
this piece of ingenuity by the cruel
douting of the lady he loved, who hap
pened to be a stocking knitter.
Enraged at his failure to make an
impression on her heart, he sought to
make it on her purse by killing her
means of livelihood; and one is glad
to read that all stocking makers COM
bined to Illustrate his cruel purpose
with the result that he fed with his
invention to France, where he finally
died of broken heart, whether for
love of his lady or of his spoiled in
vention, tradition does not say.-Lon-
don Chronicle.

Ghosts Of Dead Lakes.

In the great basin between the
Rockies and the Sierra Nevadas lie
the ghosts of many dead lakes Riv-
ers still flow down to the dry edge of
these one-time great reservoirs and
are licked up by evaporation and the
chinook winds. OF all the lakes that
once lay there, only Great Salt Lake,
Lake Tahoe and Bear Lake are left.
The Southern Pacific rolls for 165
miles across the bed of what was once
Lake Lahontan, and the passengers
gazing idly from the windows may see
the terraces and wrinkles in the crust
of the fossil lake which nature robbed
and defrauded of it's crystal treasures
ages ago.-Exchange.

Quiry the physician is met with. / do
not hesitate to say that in my judg-

speak freely of its merits.

THE NEW INSURANCE AGENT.
He Comes in With the New Law-PauI
Morton on His Opportunity.

The new insurance law of the State
of New York has opened up a promis-
ing field for both men and women
with brains and energy in the sale of
life insurance. The law now provides
standard forms of policies, each of
which practically bears the hall mark
of the State of New York, and this new
order of things has established the
sale of life insurance on a correct
basis
The prohibition against rebating and
extravagant allowances to agents has
driven out of the business the old
type of insurance agent, who in many
cases virtually bought business, with
large rebates, instead of selling it.
His place is being taken by profes-
sors, lawyers, school teachers of both
sexes, and others. who find that being
a life insurance agent under the new
system offers greater reward than
their previous vocations. The law has
reduced commissions but all of the
commission now goes to the agent.
Life insurance is something that
everyone needs and under the pres
emit system its sale is being conducted
with becoming dignity and propriety.
Paul Morton, president of the EQuita-
BILE Life Assurance Society, has taken
the lead in building up an agency or
ganization that is in keeping with the
demands of public sentiment, and the
standard he has set for his company.
He says: I'VE want new agents, both
men and women, but none except en-
ergetic, able and truthful people need
apply. For such there is a splendid
opportunity"
Mr.. Morton's policy of injecting new
and vigorous blood into the agency
force of the Society is meeting with
success in all parts of the country.

Latest Kansas Events.
The Crop Killer.

Secretary Coburn of the state board
of agriculture, who presides over the
destinies of the Kansas wheat crop
is responsible for the following:
Softly caressing his dubious aldo
men, lined with fat capon and irri-
gated with Mumm's Extra Wet, he
fareth forth to Kansas on his trusty
Pullman, and at eventide desolation
and threatened famine stalk where
morning saw the smiling plain basking
all unsuspicious in the sunshine of
prosperity, promise and peace; the
countryside from Alma to Wamego
has been laid waste by such bug or
bosom as the killer deemed most
suitable to his season, and the morn
ing and the evening journals tell of
the wrack it hath wrought On the
morning of the second day his pals,
disguised as bulls with fierce horns,
rush into the pits where are bears.
and by loud bellowings and fierce
demeanor become possessed of the
large portions of juicy meat upon
which the bears fain would feed
even to fairness, the winter through.
In good time the killer putteth out
to sea; not in a cattle steamer, but
in a sumptuous yacht, wherein he
continuously maketh merry, with
music and maidens,' and chortles at
the newspaper chimps who wasted
their substance in spreading his pois-
on exactly as he would have it spread
at their own expense, in turgid type,
on the front page, top of column.
About the selfsame day the farmer,
knowing the heat and burden of the
season soon are at hand. calleth about
his men servants and his maid serv-
ants and te1leth them to prepare for
bigger job of harvesting than they
have ever tackled before, while he
goeth in his automobile at dawn seek
ing to lease the highway for a stack
yard and the court house as an addi-
tiona1 granary. And his latter end
shall be worse than the first, when he
gnasheth at the railroads that their
sidings are too short for the cars BE
needs, and the worlds grain prices
get baggy- at the knees because Kan
sas has again, as is her habit, raised

ono Redeemino Feature.

A youthful New York artist recently
invited a friend to dinner in her stu

greater in mixing colors than in ca
tering to grosser tastes, the dinner
was something to gnash ones teeth at

tough, the potatoes were underdone,
the pineapple salad was pithy. In an

to the depths Of apologizing.

Students Work at Baker.

The faculty and students at Bak-
er University spent a day in clear
ing the debris from the recent fire,
preparatory to commencing work
on the new gymnasium. Two hun
dred and fifty students, organized
in squads, completed the job which, it
is estimated, would have cost 5000 or
$500 had the work been done by con-
tract. Nearly half of the building
fund is now subscribed and the work
on the new building will begin at
once.

of the burned Gym by members
of the crowd of 100 students who did
work. The Baker students unani--

of the gymnasium. Three hundred

wood and rock and labored in the dirt
for eight hours. The girl students

Jackson had handed down an opinion
to the effect that it is just as much
of crime to open Idian graves even
in the interest of archaeological re-
search as it is to open the graves of
white people. He says the law no.

from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine

makes half the usual quantity of Starch
