ALASKAN BIRDS IN CALIFORNIA.
Strange Visitors Brought to San Der.
narcino by Big Storm.

AT an early hour this morning sew.
eral hocks of strange birds numbering
thousands came into the city on the
wings of a big rain and wind storm.
and this morning the bodies of many
or the fowl were found lying inert in
the downtown streets and in he
parks, says a San Bernardino CORE.
srondent of the San Francisco Chron.
lcie' The air was filled last night with
cries or strange fowl which, attracted
oy the electric lights, roasted upon the
buildings or fell exhausted in the
streets. Investigation today showed
mat many Of the birds were of Alas.
Kan variety, and the only accounting
ior their presence in this latitude is
tnat they were engaged in a long
hlsnt TO the southern zones from their
summer haunts and had been
deferred from their route by heavy
WINDS and rains. The most noticeable
oirds were the northern phalorpe and
'ne night herons. The former birds
are rarely seen outside of Alaska or
the far south.

Likes and Dislikes.

Dear Editor: Please give one who
admires your Home Circle department
a little space to a subject not yet
touched upon:
Give mea good. social life, and not a
society life; a genial natural person,
and not simply an affable one; one
sensible, popular maiden, ana not a
belle. for no man cares for such a wife
whose heart has been trampled on like
a hayward.
Give me the woman who works with
a vim and never tries to shirk her
duty, but whose cry is: "Can I do
enoHgh?" and not: "Oh, my! l have
too much to dol" People who dwell
SO much on self are generally miser.
able.
Give me the woman who is willing
to adapt herself to circumstances, and
who after an exertion of effort, has
such an undying faith, her motto is,
Though he may STAY me, yet will l
trust him." The woman who will not
be miserable ove the past, but will
cling to the future with hope, for hope
is the blossom Of happiness: the
woman not afraid to Superintend her
domestic affairs and then grace her
parlor with as much dignity and con-
fidence as if she were the wife OF the
President of the United States; the
woman who will cling to her husband
through thick and thin, remembering
the took him for better or worse.

Rules Adopted by a Wise Girl

cation and here it is:
l. | don't let a man smoke when
he walks or drives with me. If he
knows no better than to do it, |
promptly tell him what l think about
it.
2. / don't give my photograph to
men l used to occasionally, but l
am wise now. l should hate bye and

The first question a mar ask when
he sees a girl flirting is whether she is
respectable or not: it raises a doubt at
nee This being the case no modest
girl can afford to indulge in the pass
time. When the down is brushed
from a peach its beauty is SO marred
that it can never be restored. and
when a young girl throws lightly aside
that sweet and modest reserve so be-
coming to a maiden, and which SO
elevateS her and enables her to COM
mand the respect of all, she loses the
great charm and becomes rather
cheap and common, to use no rash
terms. Flirting may seem to the
giddy and th%oughtleSs girl wonderful
ly amusing and she may get the idea
that she is fascinating, but it is a
most degrading thing and she should
he frowned upon by every young lady
who has an ambition to become a
worthy and charming young woman.

People who make mistakes are those
who quarrel with one another before
their children: or who allow the latter
to grow up in ioleneSs; those who
talk about troubles before strangers;
the father who tells his children to
go the way he does not go himself,

TRUTH has one good friend
left anyway, Time.
Time is the revealer of truth. as
well as falsity, Time proves the
truth and exposes the faults.

And you can ride down any country road. in
this country, or any village, town, or city street
and see for yourself what Time has done to
bring out the facts about paint. Over there
you see a muddy, bleary-looking house-dull-
eyed, as 1t were-low vitality, paint that is
dying-dead, may be.
And there in a stone's-throw awav. one tbae fairly
CLEANS with the reflection of living light, bright, clear.
with that brilliant sheen and radiance Of gloss that
tells you the story of what's in it lust as truly as # YOU
were looking into a mirror to see your own self.
Time has proven absolutely that Horse Shoe Brand
House Paint, manufactured by the Mound City Paint
and Color Company of St. Louis, is the truest paint
manufactured IN this country or any Other country.
It's the one paint that does what good paint ought to
do, and so much more than you expect that any paint
will do. This is because it is made Of nothing but the
highest quality white lead, zinc, and best aged linseed
oil. One gallon goes twice over a surface as high as
"a six-footer and 50 feet Tonga and stays there at least
three years and sometimes ten.
1t pays to know what's good in paint. 1t pays TO know where to
get 1t. All we have to say is that we know absolutely that Horse
Shoe Brand Paint is the straightet, highest quality, honest priced
paint for honest work that we can get hold of. Made by the same
house for twenty-six years. Sold on its merits; on its character.
Remember. too, the Mound City Paint g. Color Company manu-
features a complete line of the highest quality paint specialtes-
Horse Shoe Brand paint for every use: Floor Paint, Barn and Roof
Paint, Io-Wauk-On Stain, Screen Paint, Wagon and implement
Paint, etc., Grecian Enamel for the Bathroom, Iron Beds and the like.
And so we claim it pays to know that there's one paint store in this
town where you can get good paint advice: and there's some color
cards you ought to have, too, if you're going to paint - they're
to you here at the store come and get them.
