This Man Meant All Right, but He is
Not a Farmer, So He Did Not Know.

A certain professional man in Derby
Is very fond of buckwheat cakes, but
IS somewhat fastidous concerning the
bucEwheat. He does not believe the
-four obtained at the usual places is
as good as that secured fresh from
local farmers, and was bewailing sthis
fact to a friend a few days ago, when
the friend said: why know where

close at home. I have a friend who
had a lot sent him by a farmer rela-
tive to dispose of. and 1 will get a
sam pie for you
The Derby man did not care to sam
pie the -four, but was anxious to Sc
cure some, and SO prevailed upon the
friend to get him good sized bagful
at once. Now it CHANGED that the man
having the flour was away, and know

BREED THEATER.
In the Shadow of Old Mt. Shasta
Western Feature.

Az the feature picture for the bal
Mnce of the week at the Breed theater
the very realistic picture of western
life entitled In the Shadow of Old Mt
Shasta has been chosen, and 1T is truly
O gem of the golden west. It carries
q strong story of love and hate and
possesses a splendid moral on the
value of true friendship, also the val
ue of conscience, even though it be a
guilty one.
An innocent westerner has been
charged with murder and the real
guilty party is miles away at the time
of the discovery of the deed. The ac-
cused very naturally attempts to es-
cape and succeeds for a short time, but
learns of the restitution of his wife
and child and attempts to assist them
while yet remaining concealed. He is
discovered and brought to the bar OF
justice and ds about to be sentenced
when the real murderer is haunted by
his guilty fears and conscience and re
turns to the old, place and gives him
self up. There is a tremendous amount
of real human emotion running through
the story and the beautiful scenery
adds materially to the success of the
picture.
A splendid Biograph picture is on
also, as are several good comedy sub
jects and Miss Wolcott will appear in
& new and select programme of high
grade and illustrated songs.

Economy the WORD.

The spirit of George L. Lilley is
marching on. When he was in con-
gress he made it plain that it was
possible and desirable to save some
millions of dollars for the government
by a decent regard to reasonable
economy and the cutting off of need
less expenses. His reward was red
hot denunciation from his fellow
members who were infatuated with
things as they are, and who detest the
word economy"
Now comes Senator Aldrich, of all
men, who declares that it is possible
to save the vast sum of $500. 900, 900
a year in government expenditures,
and still maintain efficiency. He said
plainly that if he was running the
government affairs he could save the
money 10y application of ordinary
business principles That remarkable
speech justified Lilley. But it did not
call down the fierce anger of Aldrich,s
associates for the simple reason that
they dare not antagonize him. Re-
ports say that in private they grieved
deeply and demonstrated with him
timidly. Senator Aldrich is unQues-
tionably right, just as Congressman
Lilley was.-Bristol Press.

POETRY.


The poets Of power and pasesor
Are leaders and lords in the van;
They help us to forge and to fashion,
They teach us to plot and to plan.
Oh, they are the strong ones. the
smters,
The seers and the prophets OF wrath.
Who summon the swords Of the fight
To clear for our progress a path!
But what shall be said of ths singer
Whose song has no purpose or plan?
The bard who is only a brtnger
OF joy to the spirit off man7
Shall he be despfsed and neglected
Ar useless vicious or vnin7
Shall he be rebuked and rejected,
And silenced with scorn and disdain7
All, no, let him sing, let him fling ua
His song without purpose or art;
The lark does not stir us or sting US,
And yet he is dear to the heart,
All praise to the poets OF duty
Who rouse us to Wre stke with wFon H.
But here's TO the singer Of bemutv
And here's to the Tilt of his song.
