BOOSTERS AND KNOCKERS

There are boosters and there are
boosters. There are knockers and
there are knockers. We have heard
considerable about both. The defni-
ton of the terms seems to be some
what confused in the minds Of many.
Nobody likes to be called a knocker.
There are those who boost from selfish
motives, and there are those who
knock from good motives. 1t is of
this latter class that we would speak.
1t takes all kinds of people to make a
world, and many different kinds are
found in city the size of Ladysmith.
We hold opinions regarding morals,
religion and politics as widely diver
giant as the poles. Some have formed
their opinions by force of early en-
vironment, while others will admit
that they champion certain principles
or institutions solely from a mercenary
standpoint. Now, we all have a right

SIMPSONS DEN.

It had always been SIMPSONS ambi-
ton to have a den" He wanted
room of his own where he could think,
where he could smoke, where he could
sit back in his chair, put his feet on
his desk and bid his soul to take com
fort unto itself And all that sort Of
thing
That was Simpsons ambition.
So when he began looking around
for suburban home he rented a GER
tain place because the agent referred
to acertain small room in it as a
den
A certain small room, said; a GER
tain small room.
Which said small room was furnish
ed with book shelves, desk chair and
a collection of stems, Herewith be-
coming Simpsons den
Such a coy place In the summer
Sampson could sit in his chair in his
den and put his head out OF the win
dow to see who were cutting their
grass. In the winter he could sit In
his chair in his den and stick his head
| into the dining room TO see II the cat
was on the table. When he sneezed
as he sat in his den his brow bumped
| the wall in front of him, and in the
rebound the back of his head hit the
wall behind him. And once when he
| had a chill in his den the unfortunate
mans headpiece ratified against all the
| four walls like a pea in a pod
But Sampson was proud OF that den,
nevertheless. He grew sensitive about
its ize. and as the word den gave
| the idea of small place, he began to
call it his study. Then when he went
into it he looked like man full OF
| thought, and when he sat in it and the
| light was dim he looked like statue
| of Scion the Wise. He bought an en-
| cvclopedia. and the books were so
| imposing that he called the place his
| library, name that Mrs. Sampson took
to with pride. Her references to the
library" were very trying to her
neighbors.
One day child came in to return
the Sunday paper.
''Take it to Mr.. Sampson, dear" said
Mrs. S.
The child found Sampson in his den,
his study and his library, surrounded
| bv his books, his encyclopedias and
his stems, sitting in his chair with
his feet upon his desk, smoking and
altogther as fine sight as heart could
| wish for The child was abashed by
the solemnity of the scene, handed
him the paper and ran out.
Did you find him, dear?' asked
Mrs. Sampson.
eyes, maam,' piped the child.
''Was he in the library?"
'NO ma'am.'
Sampson socked his ears and put his
head ont into the dining room TO
listen.
"Where was he, then?'
"He was sitting in the china closet"
cried the scandalized child 'a-smok-
ing of his pipe"
Sampson is beinning to dislike child

lCIcLEs so YEARS OLD.
Odd Discovery Made Under the Sands

Odd Discovery Made Under the Sands
of a Delaware Beech.
Claiming to have found icicles that
have been preserved for over sixty
years, Harry E. Elliott is backed by
four companions who were with him
when the discovery was made. Over
sixty years ago an old oilhOuse, where
the fluid was kept for use in the Cape
HenlOpen lighthouse, was suddenly
covered up by the shifting sands of
Rehoboth Beach. No effort was made
to uncover it, and the sand remained
there until many had forgotten that a
house had ever been on the spot
Last week when Harry E. Elliott, a
we'll known merchant, and four other
companions were walking down the
beach near one of the sand dunes they
noticed the peak of a small house
showing forth and procuring shovels
started to dig the sand away, until
finally the door of the little place ap-
peared Bursting open the door from
its rusted hinges the men suddenly
plunged into a veritable iCehOuse and
were ast0nished to find iCicles hang
ing from the roof. The ice was broken
off, but in a few moments melted
away.
Upon investigation it was found that
the old oilhouse had been covered up
for over sixty years and the icicles,
which were formed then, had kept in
the perfectly alright compartment I'M

THE BUTCHER BIRD.
II Keeps Store of Slaughtered Wrens
for Future Use.

1t Keeps Store of Slaughtered Wrens
for Future Use.
The butcher bird is the only Austria
liam bird which takes thought for the
morrow. 1t keeps store Of slaugh-
tered wrens and tomtits in any old hol-
low it can find and looks up the pantry
whenever the commissariat depart
ment requires attention.
Once when the writer was with a
fencing party, a couple of butcher
birds came round the camp and got
quite tame. One morning we amused
ourselves by cutting up some raw
meat into chunks, and hurting the
same in the direction of the butchers.
They folded them and flew with them
into the scrub.
A hundred yards from camp was
tree which had been wrecked by a
high wind, leaving a splintery break.
The splinters were tastefully decor
ated with the fragments of beef. The
supply didn't all disappear for nearly
a week. During that time other birds
occasionally came and looked at the
meat: but the butcher birds were
watching their stock of hung prov
ender, and nothing smaller than
lion would have taken 1t.

Teheran, the center of the civil

the last twenty years undergone the
most rapid transformation of all ORR

wall was taken down and the ditch
filed UP to form a broad boulevard,

courses, on which all local life de-
ponds, are still as they were centu-
