Typical OF the cities which within
the past two years have deficd the
sting of death and the victory of the
grave Is Des Moines, the capital city
and commercial center of iowa. Be
tween 1895 and 1900 the population
or Des Moines increased only ten per
cent. which may be put down AS the
natural. unstimulatcd growth Of an
ordinary city. Between 1906 and 1909
the population Of Dcs Moines in
creased 37M per cent, al which ratio

When the buttoned gowns are but

When II thumbs have ceased from

We shall rest-and, faith, we shall

Shall Toll on a sort of throne like the

Shall hear tho cold ice tinkling where

There shall be no pads to confuse us,
no store shapes to get IN their

No foolish, silly contraptions, m

But all the hooking we do there, on

Shall be with a sensible Harness up

How He Paid His Fine.

Pat Kelly. the owner of the only
jaunting car in the village, went on
spree and was sentenced to d fine Of
20 shillings or seven days in Jail. KEEL
ly chose the latter.
Now, the prison was ten miles away.
and the only possible means of getting
prisoner there was by driving. As
Kelly himself had the only car In the
place, there was nothing to do but to
hire it. For some time the constable
and his prisoner haggled over the
terms.
Kelly stuck out firmly for 80 shil-
lings. to be paid in advance. and at
last the constable had to consent to
the extortion. Accordingly they drove
Off and without any misadventures ar
rived at the prison. When they had
alighted Kelly suddenly informed his
companion that he had changed his
mind, as the prison wasn't a decent
looking place, and would pay the fine.
He thereupon drew out the 80 shil-
lings he had received. counted out the
20 shilings and paid them over to the
inspector. Then, jumping on his car.
he drove away, leaving the constable
to walk back.
