Clever Work of Beavers.

Gently at Rangeley, when beavers
work In dam construction was found
to interfere with the water supply
from S~addleback stream. These busy
engineers had constructed a tight dam,
which had retained considerable of

and workmen each day tore out their
work, only to find It rebuilt on the
next visit. Good.sized tree sections
had been hauled in and placed In the
dam by the beavers. After several

there was again found to be a stop.

Real Facts Of the Case Somewha;

Friend,

The year around the city resident
and the summer suburbanite were car
rying on a conversation over their
hurried MONDAY lunch.

these days" suggested the city man
Don't believe Id like living out in the
country these days without steam
heat and things. You'll be hiking into
town pretty quick now, | s'pose."
20, not for awhile yet" returned
the summer suburbanite. "This is
really the finest time of the year to
be in the country. 1t is a trille' crisp
ing, of course, but then it beats the
city at that. Some might exchange
the good country air for u few city
comforts, but not me. A little cold
isn't going to hurt me-"
This was a day or two ago. The
following morning when the summer
suburbanite crawled out from under
the overs the thermometer was down
around 40.
Holy jumpin' James M. J~ehosaphat,
but It's cold in this barracks!" ex.

about your polar expeditions and their

place like this for, anyhow? Never

sticking to a place like this for when
we've got a house there in town with a
furnace and hot water and bath tub

like to know! l surely would.

Holy mackerel but that waters cold.

A Poem by Mrs. Henry Burden, Cawk,r.
nansas.

The Mas THAT WENT TO KANSAS.
I've just got back from Kansas.
To my home in Illinois,
And the sights | saw in Kansas,
Have filled my soul with joys,
For the fields of corn are waving.
And the sun is shining bright.
The harvester stands waiting
And the harvest is in sight.
I've just got back from Kansas,
And here's what ! am told.
That Kansas corn for 1908,
viii sell for much more gold,
Than this whole county will produce
Along its present lines,
In gold and silver both combined
Flom.1ts entire mines
I've just got back from Kansas,
And I'm dead stuck on the state,
It's people are on easy street,
Its climates simply great,
It's farms are rolling park ways,
And the flowers that adorn
The meadows and the hillsidc>,
Are cJru-corn-corn.
I've just got bacA from Kansas,
And there is nothing that can hold,
Or seperate her farmers,
From tins flood OF yellow Z Id,
She's got more than u plenty,
And n can live high,
And blow themselves for years to
come
And still pat something by.
Yes I've just got back from Kansas.
And the funny mau an poke,
His pieces In the paper,
And laugh and scotland joke.
About the Kansas fan mer,
And the whisliers that he grows.
And the way those whiskers flutter,
When the Kausls zephyrs blows.
But I'd rather live in Kansas,
Among her busting cribs,
Than to live here in Oh cago,
A writing funny squibs,
So IL any Kansas farmers,
Thinks his whiskers don't adorn,
His face-why-I will wear them.
