THE NuRs1NG SISTERS.

Mother Marie Antoinette and the six nursing sisters of the Sick Poor had never tasted turkey. Not that they hadn't had turkey in their little home in Brook lyn in the six years since they were driven from France, but. somehow the claim of others to that turkey always preceded theirs. Always there are pitt fully poor people to be cared for-people who are dying, alone, in dark and noisome rooms-and the Nursing Sisters of the Sick Poor care for these penniless ones first.
 And then, the other day, a man heard how every poor are these nursing sisters. He found them rejoicing because a char itable woman had jet given them new shoes. They had been going on their errands of mercy in shoes that were ragged and full of holes-broken excuses for shoes, that offered no protection against the snow and rain. He heard them talk artlessly-for they are children at heart, these nursing ssters-of the one great day Of the week. On Wednes- day a nearby butcher sends them all the steak they can eat. But there is a con dltion attached to it. None of this steak may be given away. Too often that is the one meal of the week.
 So the' man promised them a treat. They should have turkey-American tur- key-and all they could eat He brought them the bird himself It was a huga turkey, plump breasted and white skinned and toothsome. He told them just how It should be stuffed and roasted, And the next day he called on them, to hear their tale of epicurean bliss. The sisters were apologetic-regretful- confident that they had done right. Their patients. 1t appears, had had no turkey at all And so the giant bird had been carved in many bits, and each poor, wan-eyed invalid had savored it's delights.
 .Aint it--?" asked the man angrily, of the bartender at the corner He is a worldly man, this turkey giver Here are these women, worn to skin and bone. half starved and frozen, giving away the only decent meal they've had in a year"
 'Whadda yuh goin to do about it?' asked the bartender.
 "Aw," said the man, soury, I'm goin' to give 'em another turkey, uh course. I'm goin' to give those sisters a real feed if I have to dope 'em.'
 ''Lemme in on this,' said the bartender. 'I'l buy the oysters-a heluva lot of oysters. "-IIerbert Corey, in the Cincin- natl Tiines-Star

MANDAN SAFE
BLOWN BY YEGGS

Mandan, N. D., July Reconsider
able excitement was caused here when
it was learned that the store of the
Bingenheimer Mercantile Co.. had been
entered during the night and the safe
blown.
An investigation discloses that an
entrance was gained through a side
door some time during the night, the
lock to the big safe knocked off, ex-
plosives injected and the door blown
off, scattering the contents of the big
iron chest over the floor. The con-
tents of the safe had been rifled, but
nothing taken. The explosion failed
to disturb the contents OF the strong
box and the yeggmen attempted to
enter 1t, but it proved Of harder metal
than their tools and withstood their
assaults.
The strong box contains $50 in cash
and valuable papers. An expert has
been summoned from the Diebold Safe
& Lock Co., to work on the combina-
ton on the inner vault, which was
affected by the explosion and fails to
work.
No tools were left by the nocturnal
visitors and no clue to their identity
has been obtained. The work, how
ever, shows the hand OF experts.
The police Of surrounding towns
have been notified to be on the look
out for suspicious characters, but lit
tie hope is entertained that they will
be apprehended.
