A BURGLARS ADVICE.
Where to Keep Revolver at Night
and How to Use II.


and How to Use It,
l take my pen in hand to write yOr
an answer to the mug that signs his
name "Nictim" what says that Il bolt
on your bedroom door nights will
make you safe from burglars coming
into the room and shooting your head
off and to tell him the only way To
be safe from harm by burglars is to
lay still when they tells you to and
after they has gone to collect from the
burglary insurance company.
Your man "Victim" is a dull guy If
he thinks n bolt will stop any one that
knows his trade. because we always
puts n gimlet hole through the panel
right back of the bolt and slides it
back quiet and easy just the same
way as we puts holes through the
panel back of dead latches on outside
doors, because there amt nothing will
stop n man that knows the trade only
a steel door with an iron crossbar back
of it and electric contacts all round.
What's more is that any man that
sleeps with pistol under his pillow
is a chump. because that's where we
always feels for it the first thing and
gets it before proceeding to the bust
ness of the evening. the right place to
keep n pistol being in the front hall
hanging on a nail where you amt
Liable to do no damage to the bed.
room walls and furniture with it. be-
sides its being bad for nervous people
to wake up in the night and feel for
a pistol that amt there no more.
If guy wants to take pistol to bed
with hnAl and thinks he's got nerve
enough to use it the proper place for it
is not under the pillow, because that's
where we always look for it, but it's
at the foot of the bed, about where
you can stretch out with your toes so
that when you wake up and feel the
burglars hand searching under your
pillow you can lay still till he moves
over to the bureau. when you will
have plenty of time to get hold of your
gun with your toes and pull it up gen
tie and slow like you was still fast
asleep till you get your grip on it and
then If you are quick enough to make
the burglar shoot in the smoke all
right, but If you amt got the nerve
for the job you'd better not have no
guns around, because he will shoot
next
Having been in the bolt slipping and
pistol collecting business for nine
years, guess l know the game, and
If knowed where your mug Victim
lives would just come up some even
ing and pinch his gun for him to show
him his bolt is no good-Sloppy Mike

NO lMPEDIMENT.
An Objection to a Wedding Ceremony
That Was Overrued.

A popular politician tells story
about one of his electioneering cam
paigns. He had arrived about noon at
certain small station. He started out
after dinner for a walk about the vii
lage. on the outskirts Of which he
came upon building thronged with
people.
The building was church. and a
wedding was about to take place He
edged his way through the crowd until
he reached a spot where he had good
view of the bride and bridegroom and
the clergyman who was about TO per-
form the ceremony.
The church was packed, with the ex.
ceptlon of a low, dark gallery near the
roof. This was apparently deserted.
The minister proceeded with the
ceremony until he came to the point
where custom required him to pause
and inquire if there was any one pres
ent who knew any reason why the
couple should not be made husba nj
and wife. A hush fell upon the as
semblage, and every one waited in

came from the upper gallery, saying:

All eyes were turned to the gallery.
where, seated all alone in the gloom.
barely discernible was meek looking
little man, with a haggard face and
disheveled hair. After the clergyman
had recovered from his surprise he
said sternly, state your reason, sir"
The suspense was turned to merri-
ment by the little mans reply:

Rest Your Eyes.

The moment you are instinctively in
clined to rub the eyes that moment
cease to use them. Also it is time to
give your eyes a rest when you be-
come sensible of an effort to distin.
guish. Cold water Is about the safest
application for inflamed eyes. Never
sleep so that on awakening the eyes
shall open on the light of window
Never read or sew directly in front OF
the light of window, the better light
being that that comes from above or
obliquely or over the left shoulder.
Too much light is an evil. just as is
scant light. 1t creates a glare that
pains and confuses the sight.

TIDES OF PUGET SOUND.
Tho Swift and Turbulent Waters Of
the Narrows.

Tho Swift and Turbulent Waters Of
tho Narrows.
The waters Of the narrows are
treacherous. 1t is a place of terrible
tides. Viewed from the precipitous
shores, the surging waters are mag
nificent The scene has been compared
with the Hudson above New York
city. The waters of that part Of
Puget sound which extends to Olym-
pia, Mud bay Shelton and Henderson
bay, a vast inland sea within itself,
all flow in and out Of the narrows.
In the upper reaches of the sound
some twenty-five or thirty miles from
the narrows the tides attain height
of more than twenty feet. When the
tides begin to fall all the accumulated
water rushes out through the narrows
like a great river at flood. In like
manner when the tide sets in the d.
rection of Olympia the narrows be-
come swift and turbulent stream.
Frightfu whirlpools are numerous.
Streams running powerfully in con-
trary directions strike and the water
boils
Large steamboats, struck by the con-
trary currents groan and creak and
sway under the strain. This being So
it is no wonder that small craft often
overturn in the narrows A whirlpool
has been known to seize a rowboat and
twist 1t round and round until the
rowers almost despaired Of coming out
alive. 1t is a marvelously beautiful
water with all its terrors, and hun
dreds and thousands will continue to
find pleasure there, Notwithstanding
its occasional tragedies. The rumble
of the tides when running at full Is
like the distant rumble of the ocean
The terrors of the sea are an element
Of its charm, and so it is with the ter
rors of the arrows.-Tacoma Ledger

A LAKE THAT RAN AWAY.
II Changed the Face Of a Part Of
Northern Vermont.

Northern Vermont.
One hundred years ago the sites of
Glover and Barton, in the northern
part of Vermont, were mostly swamp
land. A mill was located by a brook
which was fed from one of the large
ponds three or four miles from what
Is now the village Of Glover. These
mountain ponds or lakes, two or three
miles square. are high up in the Green
mountains and are among the most
attractive spots in New England.
On June 6, 1910, three men went
mp the brook to see if little more
water could be let down to the mill.
They removed some earth, when sud-
denly the quicksands gave way, and
they saw that the whole lake was liza
BILE to be upon them.
Frantically they questioned, who
will save the miller and his wife?"
Spencer Chamberlain, the deetest of
foot, ran as fast as possible through
the tangle of thick woods to give warn
ing, while the other men escaped to
higher ground He found the miller
away and the miller's wife grinding at
the mill. She became helpless with
horror; but, breathess as her rescuer
was from his fight, he succeeded in
dragging and carrying her up the hill
out of reach of the rushing water.
The miller's horse was drowned and
all of his hard earned property swept
away in a twinklng.
The water rushed along, carrying
everything before it. digging out ra-
vines, filling up hollows and making a
new surface to the land generally,
some of it reaching Lake Memphrema-
cog, more than a dozen miles away.
1t brought down so much sand that it
filled the swamps and made them fit
for habitation.
The site of the lake is now called
Runaway pond or Dry pond and the
road leading to it Runaway road. The
ground which was once the bed Of
the lake is spongy and shakes when
walked upon. Hay is grown there, but
has to be cut by hand and carried off
on pitchforks. as a horse would sink
into the soggy mass.-Boston Globe.
