STOVE A MAXIM GUN
Winsted Man, Pling Rubbish on
Flames, Starts Fusiiiade.

WlNSTED, Conn, Dec. 29.-After
old Joe Whitney, violin maker,
moved out of his Lake street home
Charles Belcher and his family
moved in. And they foHnd-no,
they didn't find any priceless Strad-
iyarius yiOlins, but they did find
something that was a lot more stir
ring than music.
Mrs. Belcher, in cleaning up, put
lot OF rubbish in piles. Last night
Belcher put some of the stuff in the
kitchen stove. Bangety-bang!
Stove lids blew off, the fire was
scattered about the kitchen and
birdshot were blown into the walls.
Shouting "Robbers." all the family
except Belcher fled. He put out
the fire and then found that explod-
ing shells had done the damage.
Probably box of them was in the
rubbish.

THE PRESS EXPOSE
BAD FOR LOAN SHARKS

Troubles with the salary and fur

common in Spokane that their vic
tins are flocking into the offices of
the mayor and the corporation
counsel almost as rapidly as the
laboring men who declare they
have been swindled by the employ
Nent concerns.

Il man vino lives in the country. [ can
not say that he was farmer, for his
dinner did not satisfy me IN calling
him a farmer, for everything he had
on his table was bought. Out Of curl
osity I asked him how he cured his
bacon. He said Mr.. Armour cured it
for him. I asked him what tomato he
found was best for canning. He told
me his were canned in Baltimore. l
asked him what kind Of turnips he
sowed for making salad. He told me
he bought that also. Then I wanted to
know what kind Of cotton seed he
planted, and he quickly answered; l
plant Toole 5 and Cooks. So you can
readily see that he was planter and
not a real, real farmer. This is the
kind Of farming that causes Scent
cotton. I was in a grocery store the
other day and one Of these planters
came in to buy some corn, flour, ba-
con and hay. He asked the price Of
corn, $1.10; -four, 81 per barrel; ba-
con, II 1-2 cents per pound, and hay,
S23 per ton. He said to the merchant,
Are you going to rob me?" The
merchant told him he had robbed him
self. You did it by planting all the
cotton you could, last year.
"Now, brother farmers, let's look
at things square in the face and see
that October cotton is being sold for
about 9 cents on the New York Ex-
change. Now, are you going to plant
another big crop when you know that
cents is about the cost Of produc-
tion? Surely not. There is just one
thing that will keep you from deliv-
ering your cotton crop Of 1909 for 8
cents, and that is organize into the
Farmers Educational and Co-opera-
tive Union Of America. Plant 35 per
cent Of your cotton crop into food
crops, and you will get as much money
for an eight and ope-half million bale
crop as you will t;r a thirteen mil

WHITE RIBBON ECHOES.
Prohibition Campaign in Florida.

The Florida W. C. T. U. and the
Anti-Saloon League are cooperating
in petitions to the Legislature, which
will convene in April, demanding the
submission Of constitutional amend
ment prohibiting the manufacture
and sale of intoxicants in the State.
An advantageous location near the
capitol has been secured for state W.
c.. T. U. headquarters, which will be
decorated with banners, notices, etc.,
and will have an attractive sign,
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, that cannot be overlooked by
those going to the capitol.
Prohibition literature has been
sent to the members Of the legislature
that they may see both :ide* Of the
question, for Of course they will be
flooded with literature, influence and
the argument that elinks, by the IL
ouor men. Since Georgia went dry
many liquor dealers formerly Of that
state have moved into FLORIDA,
making the ten wet counties OF the
state thoroughly "booze' counties.
All Christian organizations have
been asked to help in the prohibition
campaign and they are responding
nobly. Petitions are coming in daily
and the whole state seems aroused.
The liquor forces have adopted the
":still hunt" policy.
An appeal has been sent ont asking
that on April 18th every minister IN
the state preach on Christian citizen
ship and follow his sermon by taking
a rising vote on a resolution asking
the legislature to submit the prohlo1-
ton amendment and that on April
18th he telegraph or mail this reso-
luton to the ". c.: T. I. or the Anti
Saloon League at Tallahassee. April
1lth. is to be day Of special prayer
service. when all who love righteous
ness will pray that prohibition may
win.

Dust! Dust! Dust!

A woman, essaying work in GER
tain rooms in certain cordage fac
tories, has, for initiation, an attack
Of mill fever,' says a writer in
Everybody's. 1t is a cold, tenn
perature, a loss Of voice, lassitude.
1t keeps the patient in her house for
a. few days. Passing off, it yields in
time to a hoarseness, an asthmatie
habit, enfeebling, chronic, in many
cases.
These facts, long familiar to old
er countries, were substantiated for
this country in 1905 through an ex-
traordinarily painstaking investlga1
ton conducted by Hiss Mabel Par
ton on behalf of the Woman's Educa-
tional and Industrial Union: of Bos-
ton and the Federation Of Women's
Clubs of Massachusetts,. Eleven of
sixteen doctors elaborately inter-
viewed by Miss Portion stated,
from wide experience among cordage
factory operatives, that chronic asth-
ma, chronic catarrh and chronic
bronchitis were unduly prevalent
among them.
This is certainly bad. But is it be-
cause of something inherent, some
thing irremovable, in the making of
cords, ropes, twines? Not precisely.
Precisely, it is because of dust, ex-
tremelv removable dust.
When we see men metal polishers
dying by the hundreds of throat and
lung diseases, because Of the dust
which rises into their nostrils
when they. press metal objects
against whirling wheels Of emery,
corundum, carborundum, We do not
say, "Industry is bad for men. .
We say, "Dust is bad for men. y
So, sometimes, We put hoods over
the whirling wheels and attach pipes
to the hods and place suction fans
in the pipes.
On top of one Of the buildings Of a
big manufacturing company in Chi
cago there is a pipe through which
thick as cinders from a smokestack,
come hurled, swirled, scattering,
drawn up from the rooms beneath,
sifted to rifted drifts all over the
roof by the wind, lying there heavy,
hell-hued snow-storm Of lead, iron,
brass. It was all of it in the air OF
the rooms beneath, breathed by the
men, two years ago.
A suction fan can carry metal.
It can carry fax fibre. Neither men
nor women really need breathe

dust. metallic or vegetable.
