SUNSHINE LODGING HOUSE.

Were you ever in the shade of the
Sunshine,
When the cir it was smoking with
heat?
Were you ever in the RAYS Of the
Sunshine,
When the frost it would blister your
feet?
Did you ever pay more than a quar-
ter,
For the comfort the Sunshine af-
fords?
Whose beds are as slick as an otter.
And keep your poor bones from the
boards?
Now, the Sunshine's the pride of
the valley,
And it enhances the city it's in,
For the comfort it gives to the many
Who are not overloaded with tin.

The reservation of the Blackfeet
Indian tribe is located in Northwest

open to white settlement early next

chief of the New York fire department
SAYS the annual, loss will approximate
$500 900, 900 and that 10000 lives are
lost in fires. The bulk of this loss oi
life and property is due, Mr.. Croker
asserts, to somebody's carelessness
and he enumerates some OF these
causes, as follows:
Carelessness in factories, which in
most cases means dirt and rubbish
and oily waste.
Carelessness in the use Of matches
Do YOU stop to watch where light
ed match falls after you have lighted
your cigar?
Bad electrical wiring.
Careless housekeeping.
Dark and dirty Railways. People at
night, scratch matches to find their
way about, throw the match In cor
ner into pile of rubbish, and a few
hours later there's a call for the fire.
men.
Dark Easements. Tenants go down
after coal or wood with candle or
with matches. A startling number OF
bad fires occur this way.
Oil stoves.
Old-fashioned oil lamps.
Cigar and cigarette stubs,
The community that learns this
lesson before it has had disastrous
fire losses displays good sense.

BAILEYs PREDlcAMENT.

Although Senator Bailey refused TO
make any statement explaining his de-
cision to withdraw from the senate at
the close of his present term, Texas
political gossip makes 1t appear that
the senator withdrew because he felt
satisfied he could not be reelected.
As the story from Texas goes the
senator promised to come back to the
state during the recent prohibition
campaign and make several speeches
In favor Of the "wets." The leaders
of this faction kept the wires hot try
ing to get the senator into the game,
but he sidestepped until after the
campaign was over. This made the
"wets" angry and they made known to
the senator the state of their feelings.
Then, Texas gossip says, the senator
In his public speeches began to lean
toward the prohibitionists, with whom
he had never before been affiliated.
The "drys" did not think his repent
ance was sincere and served notice on
Bailey that he belonged on the other
side Of the road.
Inasmuch as neither the prohibition
lists nor the anti-prohibitionists would
have anything to do with Bailey, and
as every male in the state of voting
age was aligned with one or the other
OF these factions. it did not require the
exercise of any great political acumen
to demonstrate to Bailey that he would
have about as much chance of"coming
back" as JEFF or Hack. 7
Finding that the welcome on the mat
wasn't meant for him, Senator Bailey
did the logical thing by getting the
jump on his opponents with his an
nouncement to retire.

Kansas City Journal: A few days

planning Of the high cost Of living.
"Well, let's see how the cost OF living
| now compares with the cost OF forty.
two years ago." said o. F. Mclaughlin
as he pulled down from a shelf his old
day book OF 1870. He read off a few
entries. Here they are:
III. Pardee, 2 bushels potatoes,

| lasses, $2.40; III. TORY, pounds

ARE WE LESS COURTEOUS?

ARE WE LESS COURTEOUS?
The Chicago Tribune wants to know
II the manners of Chicagoans are de-
generating. It believes there Is
ground for the belief that in public
places men are less regardful OF WON
en- and women less considerate of
others. The giving up of seats in cars.
for example, it says, has become al.
most obsolete. One explanation of
this is found In, the invasion of bust
ness by women, but the Tribune finds
It dificult to excuse the too numerous
instances Of discourtesy to the elderly
and the obviously weak and cites this
illustration:
In North State street car the other
day two white haired women stood. 1t
was not in the rush hour. It was at
noon. There were well dressed,
bronzed, muscular men in that car.
They kept their seats. There were
well dressed, well fed women in the
car. They, too, kept their seats.
There were healthy youths who never
budged. Then young girl rose and
gave one OF the white haired women
= seat The other, a woman of 65 or
through her life, neat. self-respecting,
but weary, this woman was left cling
ing to the back Of a seat as the car
swayed and Jared along.
Perhaps such fragrant case is not
often found. But the fact that It &C.
Cured at a time of day when none of
the usual excuses apply and in car
full Of people who obviously think
themselves considerably above the
social average makes it especially sig
niflcant.
The Tribune holds tito be dish onor-
able to any community to have SUCH
things occur. 1t indicates a public
moral which is losing the old time,
generous courtesy of the American
people. No people can develop indlf-
ference to the aged and the weak, 1t
adds. without degenerating.
