after the wood has become season

and Eastwood are the varieties most
successfully treated. The dye can
be forced through lengths of wood
as great as thirteen feet. When sea-
soned and polished the colored wood
presents a beautiful appearance, and
is used for making furniture, and
also for the fittings of ships and
street cars.

TRAILED FISH FROM

New York, N. Y.-"1 came East on
the trail OF a fsh." remarked Jean
Devereaux. a business man of Omaha,
at the Grand Central Station.
1T was like this. Last summer I
went fishing in Cut-Off Lake, north OF
Omaha. at one time part of the Mis-
souri, River. | hauled up big trout.
How that trout got in Cut-Of Lake
is a mystery. because trout are scarce
in that whole section of the country.
! knew the only way to make my
friends believe me when told them |
caught the trout in the lake was to
take II home alive.
81 tied a string TO the trout's tail
and fastened 1t to a seat in the boat
Then with my hat / dipped up enough
water to i llf fill the boat, and, TAX
ing OFF my clothes. jumped overheard
and pushed the boat ashore.
Just as had finished dressing, a
milk wagon came by. and for a couple
of dollars the driver consented to
help me. We filed the cans with wa
ter and then stood the trout on his
tail in one of them. AS we drove
home. ! changed the trout from can to
can to keep him in fresh water.
AT home my wife had the bath
tub filled with water and We dumped
the trout into the tub. We kept that
FISH in our bathtub until week ago.
when the neighbors began to kick be-
cause we had to go to their houses
every time either one of US wanted a
bath So we decided to ship the fish
friend of mine here in New York.
Would you believe it; my wife
cried when sent that trout away! You
see. it had become so tame it would
eat out of her hand. Now it was on
account of this habit of his that all
our subsequent trouble came about
and had to come east.
Just half an hour before ! put the
fish in the tank to ship it away my
wife went to the bathroom TO bid the
fish goodby. In her grief she forgot
to take il any bread and when she
put her hand in the tub to pat 1t or
the head the trout snapped at her
hand. Later she found that one oi
the diamonds in her ring was missing

Choir OF Birds.

At the Chapel of st. Peter in Flor
ence there is a choir of birds, the
only one of It's kind in existence. The
birds-300 in number are all in sep
arate cages, which are arranged in
rows on both sides of the altar. The
leader is a girl, who has had the
birds under her own personal train
ing for more than two years. The
whole of the musical pare of the ser
vice is most exquisitely rendered by
them. The leader starts each hymn
by whistling the first few notes, and
then the birds take it up, in obedi-
ence TO the movement of their in
structor's hand.-Exchange.

MUSTN'T SWEAR WHEN MILKING
Polite Whispers to 5ossy Ordered by
County Medical Society.

Poughkeepsie, n. Y.-The farmers
and dairymen of Duchess County are
indignant over a rule made by the
MIX Commission of the Duchess
County Medical Society which will de-
prive them of the Endorsement OF the
society if they swear or talk loudly
in the cows stables during milking
hours.
The new rules require also that
every COW shall be washed and groom
ed before being MIXED and that the
hair on the cows tails must be cut
short; cats and dogs must be excluded
from the stables and no spectators
may witness the milking.
The dairymen balk most at the or
ders for whispers and gentle pats for
stubborn bossies, and local consum'
ers fear another increase in the price
of milk.

SEMlPHORES GUIDE HORSE
And Squire 65ldwin's Nag Is Never
Asleep at the Switch as He
Has Him Educated.

cedar Grove, n. J.-For the guild"
ance of a deaf and dumb horse,
Squire Hake Baldwin of this village
has equipped his rig with a set OF
railroad signals, under which 1t works
admirably. There are semaphores for
day trips and lights for night trips,
and the horse now understands their
significance as well as any railroad
man.
baldwin purchased the horse In
Newark. He noticed the Newark
nal and thought he would enliven
things by offering $3.50. To his sur
prise the horse was knocked down
to him cheap carriage and an even
cheaper set of harness also were pur-
chased and he started home with his
new acquisitions. AS he drove out, n
street urchin ran alongside the car
riage and told him he would better
be careful OF the horse, because it was
deaf and dumb. Baldwin thought the
boy was foolng him. Before he
reached home he discovered the ami
NAL was as deaf as a post and that It
paid little or no attention to pulls on
the reins. Half an hour was spent in
a puddle and another half hour in get
ting out OF ditch.
Finally Baldwin reached home and
a congress of horse experts was
called. 1t convened about the barrel
stove in Silas Halliday's store. Vari-
Gus plans were proposed and discard
ed and finally Baldwin said he would
try the railroad signal plan.
You see. with the blinkers off, a
horse can see back of him on both
sides without turning his head" Bald
win continued, and he went home and
fitted the signal system to the sides
of his carriage. Now. when he wishes
the horse to start he raises a white
semaphore paddle; green means go
slowly and red means stop. Lights
are used at night. and Baldwin now
has the horse educated so well he
say he would not sell it for 800.

srggested one. Hold on a minute
renlied another. Watch me get a

with that he walked over to one OF

GUS way said, will you please tell me

A $4,000 Pound Cake Of Ice.

Middletown. N.Y.-The largest

ice house in New York state and
probably in the United States
is to be found at Florida. Orange

"PUBLIc WORSHIP WANING"
Wave Of Social Consciousness Sweep
ina Land, Says Brown President.

Chicago.-William H. p. Faunce,
president of Brown University, thinks
religious sentiment as measured by
church-going. is on the wane. In the
American Journal of Theology, issued
at the University of Chicago Press, he
says:
THE moral awakening which has
taken possession of the country has
had re-active effect on devout re-
ligion.
"A wave of social consciousness Is
now sweeping over our land, and, at
the same time, there is obviously a
wave of recession from public wor-
ship. The tide of corporate endeavor
is at the full but the tide OF corporate
devotion mysteriously GIBBS. This dis
inclination exists not alone among the
irreligious or immoral; it exists most
obviously among the devout and the
thoughtful"

Origin OF Flat"

Possibly the exact origin Of fiat"
as applied to an apartment will for
ever remain in obscurity. In recent
years owners of fiat houses" have
rebelled against the term most hotly.
A short while ago a tenant was
threatened with suit for libel be-
cause he persisted in saying that he
lived in such-and-such fiat house.
The landlord declared that the
structure was neither a fiat house
nor a tenement, but an apartment
hotel. The repeated use of fiat
house" as a designation tended to
lower the reputation of the place and
drove away would-be occupants,

PASSING Of COWGIRL
FROM WESTERN LIFE
Magnet of Home Has Drawn

INTERESTED IN FASHIONS
Life on a Cattle Ranch Today
Much as on an Eastern
Farm.

Farewell to the romance of the
ranch life of the Western states. The
march of civilization. the spreading of
the mighty arms of the great railroad
lines, the springing up of little towns
with their shops and tiny houses have
slowly but surely driven the way of
the great herds of buffaloes. the pic
turesque figure of the American COW
boy, and now has commenced the pass
ing of the rollicking cowgirl. the type
of American womanhoOd that Sprang
into existence when the great tide of
settlement from the East began its
roll across the wide Western prairies
The magnet of home life may be one
reason for this change in Western liv-
ing conditions. The influence of good
literature may be another, or visits
East to come in contact with the re-
| finement and culture to others of their
sex may have much to do with the al
tentative. The fact remains. The
cowgirl is rapidly disappearing and
more of the type that have time and
again been made the heroines of nov
els are to be found among the various
Wild West shows exhibiting in all
sections of the country than actually
exist in real life.
When the tide of settlement from
the East rolled over tie great plains
of the West it carried before it, first
the buffaloes, then the Indians, and
lastly the cowboy.
| The very women who are now leav-
ing off the masculine habits that gain
ed for them the title of cowgirl were
the real cause of the old-fashiOned
cowboys obliteration.

The advent of women into the Wild
West had softening influence on the
rough plainsmen. Promiscious shoot,
ing sleeping under the skies rolled

these things soon become nothing but
memories following their arrival.
The first women became cowgirls
for this reason. To maintain their in
