now the. plaintiff in an injunction
suit in the federal court, has secured
out of that suit an amount of free
advertising which it is hard to
calculate. In part the merchants are
at fault; in part the publishers. Let's
all quit. Let's stop talking about
the other fellow and expend a little
energy on ourselves. No man ever
makes success of life by looking in
envy or criticism at his successful
rival. If every newspaper in the
state would stop abusing the mail
order house, and if every merchant
in the state would advertise persist
emily and skillfully in his. local
newspaper, there would be such a
change in this matter within year
that we would wonder why he worried
so much about it.

THE RIcksHAW AND DANDY.
Primitive Modes Of Travel In Hill
Country Of India.

In the mountain districts of India
the principal vehicles of passenger
are the 'rickshaw and the
dandy" with which Rudyard Kipling
has made US familiar. United States
Consul Gen. Michael, Of Calcutta,
writes thus about these vihicles:
"The rickshaw is pushed and pulled
through the streets and on the roads
leading out into the country by four
coolies, and the dandy is carried on
the shoulders of four and sometimes
six coolies. Saddle ponies are also
used to some extent but most Of the
inhabitants and quite all visitors used
the 'rickshaw and dandy TIE latter
is constructed on the plan Of a slei Oh
box, but longer. A pole Is attached
give springy motion when the coolies
are walking and trotting. A eirss-
piece rests on the shoulders Of the
coolies and is shifted now and then
from one shoulder to the other for
rest BY the command of the cooiie
in charge this shift is made simuitane-
ously. AS rule, both the 'rickshaws
and the handles are heavier than
they need to be, and they are general
ly lacking in finish. Yet these vehicles
cost as much as light and strong ones
well finished should cost. The writer
would like to place alongside Of the
'rickshaws and handles in use In In
dia some samples manufactured In
the United States after designs made
by an American designer. The sam
pies would attract orders"

WHAT THE BELL MEANT.
Musicians Novel Method Of Signaling
for Refreshments.

At the end of the ballroom floor in
Riley's Tonopah saloon was a stage.
upon which the orchestra sat, On one
side were tiers of curtained boxes
and along the other ran raised gal
lery with drinking tables and chairs
A railing held the crowd back from
the dancers, but there were no hur-
dies between the onlookers and the
bar. In fact, from the way they gravi-
tated thither l judged the floor to be
on a slant. The place was thronged
and very noisy. In the midst of a
swinging two-step one of the must
clans picked up a cow bell from be-
tween his feet and tangled it loudly.
What does that mean?" l asked. "A
fght?" ''Oh, no." said man at my
side, "the orchestra wants drink"
and l saw white-aproned attendant
scudding toward the stage to take
their orders. At regular intervals the
wild clamor of this bovine neck charm
broke out and it never failed to gain
attention.-Rex Beach in Every
body's.

LION CLEARED THE YARD.
Pet Of Minneapolis Man was Death to
the Dogs.

Mr.. Nelson, who was much annoyed
by stray dogs burying bones In his
garden at Linden Hills, occurred a lion
while he was in Europe last summer,
paying $287.50 for a rather weather
beaten king of beasts, but one that
was guaranteed in every respect. The
lion became a great pet on the way
over and came to know his masters
voice and obey it. It's name was
Henry. Arrived at Linden Hills Mr..
Nelson let Henry out into the back
yard and simply waited. At 1880 on
the first morning a Newfoundland dog
as large as small garage walked into
the yard to step on the flower beds as
usual and to tip over the garbage can
The lion saw the dog enter the yard
and the dog just barely saw the lion.
C-E2ch!" That was all. It was the
sound made by Henry eating the dog.
At $40 a monster bulldog smelled his
way into the garden to rip up a yard
OF soil among the petunias. "Ki-yi!"
"Crunch!" The bulldog had gone
hence. BY 1870 Henry's score stood:
One Newfoundland, one bull, four fox
territs, an Irish setter, and two plain
dogs. Everything that came into the
yard cellided with the lion and 10, it
was not. Mr.. Nelson was so joyous
over the experiment that he could not
go to work that day, but just sat
around and felt good. In six weeks
the dogs were either all In or were
avoiding the place by going two
blocks the other way. Then the cir
Gus came around and the lion was so
fat and glossy that Mr.. Nelson dis
sosed of him to the menagerie depart
ment for $327.75.-Minneapol Jour-

DEVILS LAKE
SINCE 1867 LAKE HAS DROPPED
ABOUT FIFTEEN AND HALF d
81 FEET sfaes 4

4 Professor E. F. Chandler of the
state university has completed for in
clusion in the annual report of the
United States Geological Survey
brief report on the changes in the
elevation of the water surface of Dev-
IFS Lake during the past forty years
and the causes of these changes. Dew
lis Lake has no outlet; the average
annual evaporation from its surface
is nearly three feet, the annual rain
fall only about half that. amount;
hence the surface rises or falls accord
[ ing as to whether the water flowing
into the lake each year in streams
and from storm is much or little.
During the past seven years accu-
| rate records have been kept; the ex4
IRENE range between high water and
low water of any single year has been
not more than foot or eighteen inch
| es. The lake gradually rises or falls
from year to year, the amount de-
pending upon the amount of rainfall,
and upon the conditions OF the sur
rounding farm land which, if cluti-
waited, catches and holds the rain
| which would otherwise flow into the
lake. e9 tS h Va 5l!13 5

the lake surface was 11.3 feet on the

height of the lake has been fairly
constant, there being no recorded ele-
walton lower than the present mol
more than "a inches higher.
4 In 1867 the water was about Is 1-2
4 feet higher than now; in 1879, liz
feet higher than now. During the
a years while the country was being
Z settled, the breaking OF the prairies
cut off the water supply for the re
( punishment of the lake, and the laks
continually fell until recent years
4 But now the lake being reduced to !;
fraction of its original area, the tota
evaporation is no greater than the In
flow, and the lake may be regarded Al
probably in fairly permanent con
dition. 4.
