ORDERED TO CARE
FOR STARVING STOCK

Denver, Dec. 2S.-Governor Shat
roth yesterday announced that he in
tended to make an investigation i'm
mediately into the report that cattle
are starving throughout the state. and
If he finds these reports are true, he
will compel the state board OF stock
inspection commissioners to do their
duty and care for the stock. In dis
cussing the matter the governor
stated that he does not propose to
have any starving cattle in the state
while he Is governor. He does not care
where the responsibility lies for car
ing for the stock, but he does care
whether the persons having this re-
sponsibility uses It in the right way.

make these people care for their
stock. / was rather skeptical about

seen incident happens, the announce
ment of DR.. Works appointment will

that the Meredith ''cocoanut" was

Until the seventeenth century knife
blades had pointed ends. as can be
readily understood when the knife Of
those days was used for hunting and
table purposes lndlscrlminately. The
rounded end was introduced from
France in curious way. II happened
that Cardinal Richelieu was compelled
TO entertain at his table a certain Chan
cellor SPIuler--a vulgar and unmanner-
ly man. who at the close Of the meal
proceeded 10 use bis knife as a tooth
pick. This vulgar act so upset the
cardinal that he ordered the end Of
every knife in his possession TO be
rounded. and so great was Richelleu's
influence that the fashion was soon
adopted all over the country. This is
