by President Faunce, of Brown Uni

~Moonshine butter" is making good

nal.
The reason is simply that there is a
tax OF 10 cents pound on oleomar-
garine that Is colored to initiate but

1t is only one-fourth of a cent a pound.
or course, this offers an invitation
to fraud. A man rents house or a
cellar. buys a few hundred barrels of
"oleo" from a meat packer, puts it
into big vat, heats 1t, adds the requi-
site amount of "anatto" To give the
desired tint, mixes 1t thoroughly and
sells the stuff as fresh dairy butter"
This sort of thing is being done at
the present time on a considerable
scale in most of the large cities of the
East and Middle West. 1t gives the
government more annoyance, ten times
over, than all the distilling of Illicit
whisky.

The tenth day came, and Mrs. Sa-
vile seemed sinking rapidly. The doc
tor remained all night. Hope sat by
the bedside Haggard, dry-eyed. some
times the sufferered uttered the name
Of her offending son, sometimes she
murmured inarticulately. The elev-
enth day dawned gray and overcast.
Hitherto the weather had been fine,
and warm enough to make II difficult
TO keep the sick-room tolerably cool.
In after-years, the simmer of moon
light on the sea, and the sweet sooth-
ing rhythm of the soft upward rush
and backward sweep Of wavelets on
pebbly beach, always brought the sick
room and the terrible anxiety OF those
days WILDLY before Hopes mind. A
cooler wind now blew gently, and
Hope, who had snatched half an hours
rest, came soon after dawn to resume
her watch. She was startled. Had
the proud, hard, disappointed woman
passed away! She lay so STILL with
something of that rapture of repose"
which only death can bring. She look
ed at the Sistcr-a look OF terrified In
Quiry. She lives. but scarcely
broathes," was tho whispered reply.
Hope bent over the bed. and touched
the thin hand which lay outside the
clothes. "She is breathing regularly.
Her hand is not burning. Go call the
doctor, Sister Marie. Oh. go quick
IT,"
When he came. he. too. touched her
hand and listened. "She sleeps" he
said at length. She may live. Keep
everything profoundly quiet"
Never could Hope forget that vigil.
Az the hours passed. and still the ex-
hausted patient slept and slept. some
more than natural strength seemed
given to the young watcher, who would
not quit the bedside. only taking cup
of milk to sustain her, for how long
she never knew.
At last, when then sun had sunk and
the first soft shades OF night began to
fall. Mrs. Saville slowly lifted her eye
lids. and recognized Hope. She smiled
gently. as II feeling comfortable and

ly at the Courtland, where luncheon

pointed u revise the constitution and

the remaining of some of the streets
IN the city was taken up and talked
ever. 1t was finally decided that a
committee should be appointed to con-
fer with Mayor Turnbull, Director
Harbert and the members of the city
council on the subject. This COM
mittee consists of Messrs. ZettIer,
Hamilton and Harmony.
A vote of thanks was rendered to
President Dougherty, Vice President

A BOND ISSUE TO
BUILD STANDPIPE
Director Harbert ard Supt.
OhIiger Will Make Recon-
mendations to Council.
PRESSURE NEEDED

At next Monday evenings session
Of the city council Director Ray F.
Harbert will present a communication,
urging the necessity of having a stand
pipe erected for the water works and
asking the members to provide means
for the improvement.
Director Harbert and Superintend-
ent Ohliger went to the east end of the
city among the manufacturing estab
lishments yesterday and got the views
of the heads of the different plants
on the proposition.
Some of the big plants in this lor
cality suffer in the summer time be-
cause the city is unable to give them
all the pressure that is necessary.
Superintendent Ohliger stated that
about forty pounds of pressure was
lost between the pumping station and
the city hall, owing to friction in the
pipes.
''This pressure is reduced consid-
erably more before the water reaches
the Berger and the Carnahan plants
and other industries and a standpipe
is an absolute necessity now. This
would make the pressure as great in
the east end as in the west end of
the city and the friction would be
aieviated,' he said.
"The people at the heads of the
shops out there are of the belief that
in the next ten years that Canton will
lie a city of 100000 people and say
that when improvements are made in
the water system that thfS matter
should be taken into cotsidAration
They want us to look to- the fttturE
and make extens:ons as rapidly as
possible"
81 will ask for a bond ISSUE" said
the director, "just in what amount
will be determined later. am posi-
tive that the morey could be used
to good advantage in the way of
erecting a standpipe and the purchase
of additional landa needed by the
department.
''The department is paying institu-
ton and if bonds are issued the pro-
ceeds from the department will be
ample to pay the bonds in five or six
years time"
