Entertainment.

Last Thursday evening, at the beau most delightful program was rendered for the benefit of the Cemetery AssC- citation.
 It seemed as if you had been caught up into the second heaven, at least, tJ ind yourself on this beautiful lawn, among the flowers. grass trees, lights, music, good things to eat, pleasant faces. etc Surely the lawn never looked more beautiful. The veranda being semi-eircular in form, served as aa excellent stage for the music. Ja- plneSe lanterns formed anarch, which was pretty indeed Though part of tAe musica program was omitted, on account of the parties leaving town, several instrumental and vocal Selec- ti5ns were rendered to the great de light of those present
 After the music delicious refresh. nents. inthe form ef salads. lemonade candy cake and cream, were served by 4 ht}y af reN Japanese girls.

The Cow.

The dairy COW, if able to express herself in a way which the human family would comprehend, might well lay claim to being mans best friend. She might establish such claim by calling attention to the fact that from her product and from her carcass man manufacture more of the necessities of life than from any other similar source. She furnishes these necessities to him from infancy until such time as temporal things are no longer associated with his exis- tence, and she does it ungrudgingly and constantly.
 In addition to contributing to man's $ necessity and his pleasure, the pros- perity of an agricultural community is more closely identified with her than with any other of the domestic animals. The horse is quite essential in tilling the soil, but where necessity requires 1t the sturdy son of the COW can take his place, as he has done in every agricultural section on earth. The horse can only furnish labor and can only return profit to his owner when conditions are right for return ing satisfactory grain crops. It is well known fact that the dairy COW is the salvation of the farmer in times Of poor crops as she is able to convert the rough crops which are never total failure, into dairy products which always have cash value
 In addition to this she furnishes skim milk and butter milk for the calves, pigs and poultry and fertility for the soil, without which farm be- comes less valuable each year and the country less prosperous.
 The elimination of the dairy COW would necessitate an almost revolu- tiOnary read justment of mans tastes and requirements. It would mean untold suffering and hardship. Of course she will not be dispensed with, but her value can perhaps best be ap- preciated by contemplating such loss.
 She will continue to be man $ best friend as long as the human family exists and will keep on supplying him with his greatest needs just as she has done through all the agas.

HAD SYSTEM OF ELEVATORS
Scientist Has Found Proof That
Romans Knew Of Labor Sav.
ing Device.

Prof, Boni Is reported to have made
an important discovery in the course
OF his excavations in the Forum, at
Rome. While exploring some under.
ground passages near the north ros-
ira of Caesar he found In l2 small
rooms or galleries traces of a former
system of elevators.
In each room there are unmistak.
able traces Of grooves through which
ropes passed and stone supports for
wooden poles that were fixed yerti-
cally inside the passages. The profes-
sor Is convinced that platforms in
stalled In these rooms served to raise
to the surface the gladiators and
wild beasts that participated in the
circus games and that hence they were
nothing else but elevators or lifts
Thus what until recently was consid.
cred modern invention was used by
the Romans under the republic. There
are no traces of similar elevators In
buildings belonging to the imperial pc
rlod and In all likelihood no attempt
was made to improve the movabls
platforms in later times.

He was bright young lawyer, but

Forty years before, as quite a boy,
Jones had left little town in Kent.
Now, on the first long vacation he
ever had had since, he was visiting
his childhood scenes. He had remem-
bered that the postmaster's name was
Pengelley, and he had remembered,
too. that he was kindly old man.
There wasn't the slightest probability,
he thought, that the postmaster was
still alive, but his acquaintance with
the former incumbent smooth
things little with the D.. one, SO
that the whereabouts II people to
whom he had been directed would be
made known.
