The Grinneli Herald in it's report
of the annual meeting Of the society
of Music Teachers of Iowa makes
the following reference of Miss
Elsie Lincoln ''For. some unaccuun-
table reason Grinnell people had never
had the opportunity of hearing Miss
Elsie Lincoln, the popular Des Moines
soprano, until last evening but those
present now realize what they have
been missing and have hopes for the
future. Miss Lincoln has without
doubt the sweetest voice which has
been heard in the convention so far.
Her high tones are as soft and rich
and sweet as the tones Of an aboe.

chrrs were stroIling along the street.
Tom found himself looking at Il G.Gn
in the window Of shoe merchant. II
was the one that had caused him t.
purchase the pair of shoes which SILL
adorned his manteI. The man VINO
had sold them to him was standing
il the doorway.
The reflection Of lady passing on
the opposite side Of the street was
plainly visible on the polished glass.
The clerk took quick step to Tom {
side.
Are you not the gentleman who
bought from me the newest in SHOES
the other day." he asked.

"If remember rightly, you seemed
10 be much interested in the pur-
chaser Of the first pair"
IVES, yes. Do you Know who it
was?"
That is the lady passing on the
other side Of the street"
seen reflected or the glass.
Are YOU certain" he asked ex-
citedly.
Il would know her among ten
thousand"
Just at that moment Harry, who
had walked on, evidently not being
interested in shoes, came hurryine
back.
Il say, Tom" he said excitedly.

Of his Introduction.
But little remains to be told. Tom
Stanton entered into the effort OF
winning Marguerite Hazelton with the
vim of man honestly in love, and
six months later their engagement
was formally announced.
And So" said Harry Hall, when
Offering his congratulations, 1.-THE
thought of winning bride through
passed from you mind. Well, there
you are sensible, Tom"
And there is just where you miss
it, Hail." retorted Stanton.
What. Didn't I understand you
to say you were going to marry Mar
guerite? Yes? Then explain your.
self"
ASK Miss Hazelton to tell you
about her purchase OF a pair of shoes
little more than half year ago."
Can it be-" stammered Harry, a
glimpse of the truth dawning upon
| his brain.
"That it was your cousin, and my
future wife, who stepped upon that
bit of clay? That is precisely the
case"
"Then you have really found your
ideal, and owe your good fortune to {;
bit of blue clay more than to your
humble friend!"
Sorry to relieve you of the credit
but truth is truth.
well, you were not so crazy as
| believed you to be, after all, for in
Marguerite you will find stylish

on domestic matters is almost infalli

q woman, but I viii attempt to make
you comprehend what | read in that
print. See that graceful curve? Well
that is an indication that the wearer
possessed style clear to the soles of
her feet. Now notice the shape of
the sole-a common sense sole,
nothing small and pinched about it.
That is a sure indication that the
wearer had good Judgment. Under
stand? Next, notice the heel Not
ridiculously .high-rot whitfield off SO
that the wearer must imagine herself
standing with her heel on a small
cobble stone; not a heel that looks as
though it was spool from which the
cotton had been used. Summed up,
I read that the wearer of the shoe
was possessed of three good qualities:
Style, common sense, and good judg-
ment''
Tom paused, and Harry asked,
with smile
What are you going to do about
it,"
Find the lady, and, if she is what
I honestly believe she will prove to
be, and if her face is at all pretty,
WOO her"
Harry laughed and resumed his
seat among his cushions, leaving
Stanton to continue to study the bit
of blue clay. Plainly imprinted on
that portion which marked the neat
bridge of the sole were the letters
IN E w" These were all he could
make out. The balance of the word
whatever it might have been, was il
legible, and after thirty minutes of
fruitless study, he laid the clay aside
with sigh of regret.
Two days after, Tom was strolling
along the business street of his ma
tive city when sign in shop win
dow caught his eye. That first letter
of the sign-where had he seen it be-
fore? Good! He remembered it; it
was the same IS the one on the preci-
Gus bit of clay There were the other
two letters e W." but others fol-
lowed-E S T. and the sign in the
window told him that the dealer
within was the local agent for a shoe
called the Newest"
Toms next move wes to bolt into
the store, and demand of the first
clerk he saw to show him the New
est" shoe at once.
But" said the astonished clerk,
''it is for women"
Don't you suppose I know that
much? Show them to me, and if they
suit me I will purchase a pair" re-
piled the bachelor.
Like a sensible tradesman the
clerk concluded that his prospective
customer was making a purchase for
mother, sister or wife, and immedi-
ately took from the shelf a number
of boxes Of the shoe in question. A
glance at the sole of the first pair
convinced Tom that he was on the
right track; but so accurately did he
carry the outlines in the clay in his
minds eyes, that he knew the shoe
he held in his hand did not match the
imprint in his possession.
Have you no other styles of this
shoe?" he asked the clerk.
Certainly. There are a number of
different styles"

In DR.. Korn's system of transmit
ting pictures by wire-which has
been under test for some time at sta
tions in Paris, Berlin and London
greatly improved results have been
obtained, with more rapid transmits
sion, by the late plan of using line
drawings instead Of photographs at
the sending station. A photograph
drawing published in LIE Matin, the
Paris daily, showed Aeronaut Zippel
on his aeroplane. At the Berlin sta
ton the photograph had been pre-.
pared by mixing its principal lines.
when a half-tone was made from it
for transmission, and the picture
printed in the Paris paper showed
some of the shades and tints as well
as the drawn lines. For transmission,
the half tone was rolled in the form
of a cylinder, which was revolved
with a small contact wire resting
against it to send the impulses of cur
rent The receiving end had the usual
apparatus, Photographic film being
wound on cylinder rotating in
agreement with the transmitting one,
and a point of light varied in bright
ness by the current giving the impress
sion on the film. The picture was
received in ten minutes, while a pho
tograph from Berlin by mail would
have taken eighteen hours. -

Question of Validity
 Of Extra $2 Road Tax

Papers In the test case to as- certain the legality of the extra $2 road tax, imposed by the last legislature, were filed in the dis trict court of Cochise county at Tombstone this week. The title of the case is G. K. Reynolds vs. Assessor (. R. Howe. E. l.. Elllnwood represents the plain tiff, who is secretary of the Bisbee Board of Trade. The re suit of the case will be applica- ble to every incorporated city, and therefore Winslow citizens will be interested in the outcome. The complaint contends that the proposed $2 road tax upon a citizen of an incorporated city is unconstitutional under the Fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States and prals for temporary in. junction to restrain the assessor from attempting to emf 'rce the collection of such a tax, and that it be adjudged illegal, and the last act is void and uncon. stitutional.
