Harker slipped out Of the covers and
cautiously raised the sash:
"W-what's wanted?" he demanded.

Il Just want to tell you," came
muffied voice, that there Is a hand
moving around just inside your cellar
window"
With visions Of burglars Harker
picked up his revolver and slipped
through the Icy halls In his pajamas.
Cautiously he searched the cellar
with a lighted candle, but 1t was
empty. Outside ON the sidewalk
stood the stranger.
II don't see any burglars down
here!" called Harker, nervously.
who said anything about bur-
glars?" laughed the stranger.

to tell me there was hand moving
around near the cellar Window"
Sure! It Is on the dial Of the gas
meter. 1t works while you Sleep"
And then the Joker beat 1t before
Harker could fire.

Baraga county would make this an ideal
site.

The Editors Paradise.

Frederick C. Boyer, a well-known
Cleveland editor, told at recent press
banquet a newspaper story.
"A Medina editor died" he said, "and
was, of course, directed to ascend to
the Abode of the Just. But during
the ascent the editors journalistic
curiosity asserted itself, and he said:
'Ts it permitted for one to have a
look at-er-the other placer"
/" Certainly" was the gracious reply,
and accordingly descent to the other
place was made. Here the editor found
much to interest him. He scurried
about, and was soon lost to view.

last and began systematic search for
his charge. He found him at last,

HOMES IN GERMANY

There are practically no slum dis
tricts in the German cities, such as
exist in America and England. AND
there are few districts occupied ex-
clusively by workingmen. The large
fiat buildings in Berlin and other Ger
man cities are built around a court or
ward which is always excellently paved
and ideally clean. AS rule the apart
ments fronting on the street cost more
while those facing in the court are
cheaper and hence are frequently oc-
cupied by laborers' families. They may
also occupy the upper floors of build
ings facing the street, (while the lower
floors will be occupied by people OF
larger incomes. Improvements now are
being made in the building methods
tending to the elimination of the back
and side blocks, which will still better
the housing conditions of the laboring
classes.
Two and three rooms are most popu-
lar with the laboring classes. But IL
must be remembered that a room IN
Germany is as large as three or four
such rooms as are found in the flats or
American cities. The regulation three
room fiat is composed of a living room,
bedroom and kitchen. The appurte-
nances which always go with the fiat
include share of the cellar for laundry
use, the storage of fuel and the use of
a loft or balcony for drying clothing,
and the like.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-08

The kitchens are very conveniently
arranged, and amply large to serve for
both cooking and eating purposes.
The bedroom can be screened off so
as to furnish accommodations for sew
eral, so large are they. Hence three
room fiat is regarded as ample for the
needs of the average laboring man.
However, a great number of four-room
flats are occupied by laborers, and In
rare occasions even five and six rooms.
The one-room tenement, SO common In
the poor class districts of America,
is almost unknown in Germany, al
though one room there may occupy
as much space as a three-room fiat
in America.
Outside the city of Berlin, the three
room flats, such as above described.
rent for from $3.50 to $4.75 a month;
four-room flats at from 81 to Sc, and
two rooms at from $3.50 to $3.50. And
these rents include water, the removal
of garbage, chimney sweeping and
other janitor service.
But there Is a marked difference In
the price of rents prevailing in Berlin
and Stuttgart, which are being so over
crowded that it is difficult to build
houses fast enough to accommodate
the inflowing population. Here a
three-room fiat ranges from 81 to $40 n
month and a two-room from $3.50 to Sc.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-08
WHAT TO WEAR

Woolen knitted coats in light colors
are extremely popular. They reach al
most to the hem of the skirt and are
in the palest and most delicate shades,
as we'll as in the usual scarlet and navy
blue colors.
Pretty and inexpensive dressing
gowns are made of cotton voile in law
ender, pink or p'geon-blue. Cotton
crepe is also used. They are, of course,
not so warm as wooden and flannel
kimonos, but are much prettier and
daintier.
Medieval reception gowns are much
the rage this year. They are greatly
modified, of course, though they still
retain enough of the medieval not to
give a certain romantic effect. They
are most of them made with tight
fitting transparent sleeves and oval
shaped yokes, finished at the throat
with a rather high collar band. The
material is of velvet, cashmere or
crepe de Chine, the skirts usually deco
rated with heavy embroideries and
draped at the knees
Satin reticules to match every dress
is the latest craze in hand bags.
