BLAMED ON THE RAILROAD.
First Thought in Irishman's Mind A.

Railroad claim-agents have little

rural residents who wants the rail-
road to pay twice what he would
charge the butcher II he gets sheep
killed, / think of this story. illustra-
tive of the way some people want to
hold the railroad responsible for
every accident, of whatever kind. that
happens. Two Irishmen were driving
home from town one night when their
buggy ran into a ditch, overturned,
and they were both stunned When a
rescuer came along and revived them,
the first thing one of them said was:
Where's the train?' Why. there's no
train around he was told. Then
where's the railroad?' The nearest
railroad is three miles away he
learned. Well, WE'LL he commented.

Western Live Stock Exposition.

Denver.-w..h a premium and prize
list aggregating over $500, and with
a larger list of entries of fine blooded
stock than was ever gathered together
west of Chicago. the Western Live
Stock Exposition will open Its gates
to the public January goth. All ar
rangements for the big show have
been completed practically.
The management of the stock show
is going to take no chances with the
weather this year. In previous years
there has been some complaint made
that there was no proper place in
which to exhibit the horses, the cat
tie, the hogs and the sheep. When
the weather turned bad during the
show there was cause for this com
plant. This year, however, n spacious
pavilion. capable of seating between
1000 and 5000 persons has been
erected at the stock yards. A big cir
Gle of seats built in tiers surrounds
the show ring. The pavilion is Gov
cred and besides is heated by steam,
so that no matter what the weather,
spectators will be as comfortably
housed as though they were seated
in an opera house.
The active management OF the stock
show this year Is in the hands of Col
onel w. f. Skinner, who was for a
number of years at the head OF the in
ternational live stock exposition In
Chicago and who built 1t up into the
greatest live stock show in the world.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality Of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as 1t can be applied
much more thinly because of Its great
er strength than other makes.
