are still in the rough, that is they

good deal of a consolation, or rath-

coming along so swimmingly.
Because the spars are now here,
there Is little doubt but that the yacht

was at first expected. There was
some fear entertained lest they should
not arrive here in due time. and they

FOR HOME IMPROVEMENT.
Necessity of Harmonious Co-opera-
ton on Part of All Citizens.

Towns in agricultural districts ap-
parently are awakening to the impor-
tance of organizing clubs and associa-
tions for the purpose of public i'm
provements and the protection Of
home industries. The field for work
is broad. 1t is the business of the
town that makes the place of impor-
tance. Any institution that will give
employment to labor, that will bring
more people and more capital to any
town is a thing to be desired. Many
towns in which commercial clubs have
been lately organized, have a wide
field in the simple matter of keeping
the people of the town and surround.
ing country from sending money to
other cities for supplies of various
kinds that can as we'll be purchased
at home. Every dollar sent to mail
order house or department store in
another city impoverishes the town
Just so much. 1t is the business men
of the small towns who pay the taxes,
support the churches and schools, not
the far-off mail-order house, and they
are deserving of all the trade of their
home place. Don't try to bring new
business establishments to your town
until local evils are remedied.

Personality in Business.

Personality in business is an i'm
portant thing. There are the John
Wanamaker stores, Marshall Field,
the Tiffanys-and you can go down
the line from the time of A. T. Stew
art and Taylor and you will find that
there is a great deal in a name in
the mercantile line. In every town
the successful stores can be picked
out at a glance. In some towns there
seems to be an inclination to avoid
the use of signs, and there are stores
with nothing to indicate the stocks of
goods carried or the names of the
owners. Generally the interiors of
these stores are in harmony with the
outside-an indication of lax business
methods and kind of catch-as-catch-
can affair, as far as gathering in trade
is concerned. Such methods have
never been known to pay well. In
fact, it is the hustler who wins out,
and the merchant who hides his
proverbial light under the bushel will
sooner or later get out of business
with the balance on the wrong side
of the ledger.

Mountain Sheep Increasing in Rookie

Mountain Sheep Increasing in Rockies.
Trainmen on the Denver & Rio
Grande report the recent appearance
of two bands of mountain sheep on the
cliffs just beyond the Royal gorge,
near Spike Buck.
The animals are roaming about on
the rocks hundreds of feet above the
tracks. They pay no attention to the
trains, and as the law forbids anyone
to shoot at them they have not be-
come frightened at the appearance Of
a human being in the distance.
One band contains eight sheep, as
near as they could be counted from
the moving trains, and the other con-
tains about fifteen. The train crews
have come to watch for the agile ami
mails in and about the Royal gorge,
and there Is seldom day when they
are disappointed. The precarious pas.
ture they have found is apparently al
most inaccessible for other animals,
and the feeding is proportionately
good in consequenee.-Denve Repub-
lican.

Tricks in the Soap Business.

Soap is one of the staples for which
there is a heavy demand. There are
numerous standard brands in the
market, all of which are time-tested
and not found lacking in good quail
ties. These are the kind that the
people are never disappointed in. But
some who are looking for bargains
are willing to try anything new that
comes up, if it be only recommended
by some friend or widely advertised.
One of the latest soap deals, which,
by the way is an old game in a new
dress, is to offer bargains in SOAP
lust as good" as the old standard
brands and at one-third the cost. A
flattering offer is made to the house,
wife to lay in a supply. The state.
ment is made that instead of using
money for advertising in the papers
the company intends to give the peo.
pie the benefit, and the price named
is about one-third that standard
brands are sold for. Not alone this,
but some cheap clock, rug, a set OF
chinaware or some other article is Of.
fered as a premium, and sometimes
an extra box is given with every two
cases offered. The soap comes. 1t
looks good, but after few weeks
more than one-third of its weight is
evaporated. The soap is filled with
water, and when that dries out the 12
ounce cake if placed on the scales will
be found to weigh about seven OF
eight ounces.

In my brief stay in the little mining
camp of Tail-holt, Friskiyou county,
California, it was my fortune to make
the acquaintance of Mr.. Peter Walker,
guide, prospector, hunter and racon-
teur. Grizzly Pete" as he was called,
told me several stories of his expert
ences, after l had won his confidence
by disposition to distribute, as re-
garded tobacco, and willingness TO
imbibe, as regarded certain intoXi-
Cants. Mr.. Walkers stories, some of
them, seemed to me to be trifle open
to criticism, as far as veracity is
concerned, so in selecting the tale
of his adventure with 'old Stub-Foot." +"
"And So" said Grizzly Pete" to me
one windy autumn day, "and so you'd
like to hear about old 'Stub-foot?' 4"
l acquiesced.
Got any chewin?" inquired pete" I"
silently shunted him a plug of
navy. Biting off in the neighborhood
of three and one-half inches of this,
he said: well, reckon there never
was sech bear hunt before nur after
wards. This here feller that went
out with me after 'Stub-foot' had
heard of this bear there back east,
and he'd made up his mind fer to
