Responsible for Vicious Dogs

A recent supreme court decision
will, no doubt, result in the death
of many vicious dogs. The decis-
ion WAS in a case where action had
been brought to recover damages
from the owner of dog that bark
ed and frightened the plaintiffs
horse. The plaintive was thrown
and injured, and brought suit for
$500 damages. The jury gave
him a verdict for that amount and
the owner of the dog appealed to
the supreme court. The supreme
court confirmed the verdict, and
says in strong words that the own
ers of barking and vicious dogs
are responsible for all damages
caused by such dogs, and that the
owners keep them at their own
peril.-Casper Tribune

Thanksgiving Program
of WOmen's Club

The meeting Of the Women's
Club, which takes place on the
first Saturday of each month, was
delayed this month until last Sat-
Hrday, when it met at the home of
Mrs. j. F. Crawford. There was
a good attendance and it proved to
be one of the most interesting and
enjoyable meetings ever held by
the Club. Miss Lesta Andrews read
"The Courtship of Miles Stand
ish" to the delight of her hearers
as she is considered u of the
best readers in the town. A 'game
of fortune" was then played in a
very novel manner. Sheets of
paper were given each guest, at the
head of which she wrote her name.
The sheets we're then collected,
the end folded over to conceal the
name, and distributed. Each
guest then wrote a short past his
tory of some imaginary person.,
the slips were gathered, folded to
conceal the writing and again dis
tributed. In this way the past
present and future of each one
written and when the slips
Were unfolded and read some very
amusing combinations resulted.
The favors we're cards with hand
painted turkeys done in water col
ors and furnished by Mrs. Sam F.
Refreshments, consisting
of small, individual pumpkin pies
and coffee, were served during the
afternoon and all voted the meet
ing a most helpful and pleasant
affair.

The Editors Song

How dear to our hearts is the steady

Who pays in advance without skip
ping a year;
Who lays down his half-dollar. and
offers it gladly,
And casts round the office a halo
OF cheer.
Who never says; "Stop it, 1 cannot
afford itl'
Or, "Getting more papers each day
than | read;"
But always says; "Send it, the whole
outfit likes it
In fact, we regard it a business
need"
How welcome is he when he steps 10
the sanctum,
How he makes "our heart" throb
how he makes "our eye" dance!
We outwardly thank him-we in
wardly bless him
The steady subscriber who pays in

A Good One On "Schooney."

}. A Schoonjans, the prominent
and prosperous cattleman on Pass
creek, writes a hand that is, to say
the least, rather peculiar" His
friends say that he has studied so
much Hebrew that it has gotten
into his arms and hands. AT any
rate his handwriting is something
to II remark wherever seen and
when he scrawls his name on a
hotel register the clerks, and every
body else, who does not know him,
sit up and take particular notice.
Mr.. S%choonjans is fond of a joke
and takes as much pleasure in tell
ing M on himself as on any one
else. His latest concerning his re-
markable chirography is as fol-
lows:
He was at the Ferris, in Rawlins
not long since, and as he scanned
the register he saw a name that
puzzled him and he remarked to
the clerk, to whom he vas a stran-
ger, that it vas something of a
''corker."
"Oh, no." the clerk rel lied,
that's easy enough no read. But
I'll show you a name that Is a
a corker," and he turned the pages
of the register until he came to
where Mr.. Schoonjans had regis.
tered on a previous occasion, and
displayed his signature with .tri-
umphant air. "There," he said,
I'll bet you can't read that name"
"Ho. that's easy. That is j. A.
Schoopjans," smiled Mr.. Schoon-
jams, much TO the clerks discom-
future.

Oh, but it is healthy!

Better try a Diet
That is what he said.

Nuts and grain for tea,
Grains and nuts for dinner,

only because it is colored with a

purposes. The tea at these pleas
