MAKES HOME IN HousEBoAT
When Flood Comes Poultry Raiser
Can Call His Chickens In and
Float High and Dry.

Kansas City, Mo.-Andrew Jackson
Sheridan is author, poet, inventor.
philosopher, expert friend of human
ity, boat builder, houseboat mariner
and poultry raiser. He lives in a
houseboat at the mouth of the Kaw
river. About two years ago he built
and launched his home. Now a house
boat has its good points, especially
at the mouth of the Kaw. When the
river gets ambitious and tries to
climb over the ~Intercity Viaduct, the
marine home goes right on up with
it and remains dry, while the packing
houses are foundering in the yellow
water.
But Sheridan's interests began to
grow and he became cramped in his
houseboat. He took up poultry rails
ing and soon needed a second story.
Here is where his inventive genius
came to the front.
"This will make a fine second
story" he said one day as he gazed
at his canvasback residence. Sup
pose I'll have to desert the life on the
ocean wave raise her and build a
ground floor beneath on, the dry
land"
Mr.. Sheridan came to the Point for
fresh air, and finding that it had the
largest and freshest supply of air of
any place he had e seen he
couldn't hoist anchor and leave. And
thus it happens that he is building
the first story out of concrete two
years after the second stratum of
his home was completed.
"You see." said Sheridan, when
the waters come l can move the
chickens and everything into the up
per floor, and float off. When the flood
goes down I'll paddle around and let
her settle back on the foundation"

WEAR GoLosHEs IN RUSSIA.
Natives In Odessa Bound by Iron Gus
tom to Keep Rubbers on Feet
as3 Have Brass Heels.

Odessa Residents Of this city say
Eit is diflcult to understand why the
average Englishman regards the wear
ing Of goloshes as an effeminate Gus
tom. From the hygienic point of
view, the Russian attaches a prime
Importance to a feet.
In this country the wearing Of go
loshes during the late autumn, winter
and early spring is universal among
all classes save the peasantry and the
rank and file Of the army. The golosh
is as commonly worn by commits
stoned officers as it is by ciytlians.
The military goloshes are of special
make, with brass heelbits and sock
cts for the spur shanks.
From the universities down to the
primary schools the wearing of rub
Der overshoes in winter is obligatory.
Apart from its hygienic utility, in pri-
vate and social life it would be re-
garded not only as very bad FORM
but even as an objectionable gau-
cherie, for a person to enter a car
QCICU AOOLu VI d IOOM Will pdI4u0t
floor with soiled boots.
The custom is similarly de rigueur
in business circles. In all public Of.
fees, hotels, restaurants and cafes
special provision is made for visitors
goloshes by the porters who take a
visitors coat and hat in the corridor
or vestibule.
In private life there is sometimes
not a little amusing confusion, after
an evening party or a ball, In finding
goloshes, but it is customary for the
wearer to have his initials in large
brass letters, stamped on the inner
soles of the goloshes.
Russian goloshes are all Of home
manufacture and the yearly output is
about 45,O00,000 pairs. The price OF
goloshes this year is nearly double
that of last year, owing to the boom
in rubber.

HOARD MUCH GOLD
Office Boy Of Chicago Jewelry House
Solves Mystery Of Disappear
ance OF valuabies.

- HgGT4t--Ia.
Chicago piece Of gold chain
three inches long sticking out Of q
hole in the floor solved a big mystery
In a downtown wholesale jewelry
house. The manager for the com
pany had been missing watches for
three months. He suspected that some
employe was taking them, but there
was no clew. More watches disap-
peared. the managers worries in
creased. He called his chief aids one
by one into his private Office and whis-
pered to them that he would give 500
to the person who discovered the cul-
prit. A month passed. The thief was
not arrested. More watches and other
jewelry were missing. Two detect
ives were hired and ostensibly put to
work among the help. The officers
watched every move of every person
In the place. but they got no hint of
the identity Of the robber. Watches,
lockets, rings and gems kept going.
The manager called his whole force
together and told his troubles in a
fve-minute speech, winding up by urg-
Ing everybody to extra vigilance and
advising the culprit to fold his tent
and silently steal away. Nothing do
Ing. Jewelry went out of sight with
increasing speed.
Finally, an office boy sighted the
chain and the hole in the floor. He
pulled on the chain and the watch
popped up through the hole. A great
light broke in on the whole
force when he reported his find. A
carpenter vas called in and the floor
was ripped up. From the recesses
were recovered II watches, seven
lockets, IA bracelets, 10 stickpins, 81
rings, four hatpins and 13 bales Of
wire. Further search revealed q hole
In the bottom Of a case in which
timepieces and other jewelry were
kept. Rats had been at work for
months carrying of the stock of the
concern. The hole in the floor was
not large enough to let a watch
through fiat, but the rodents had head
enough to work them round sidewise
and thus accomplish their purpose.
What they proposed to do with the
gems nobody had an idea. There were
only occasional marks Of teeth on any
OF the stolen stuff, and they were
made in dragging it away. Only a
students Of animal life can say why
a rat, with a fine appetite for all va
rieties of cheese, should waste his
time Juggling away gold. silver and
dross.

FIFTY DAYS FAST FOR LOVE
Charming Brunette Of Los Angeles
Cures Malady So That She Can
Marry Man Of Choice.

Los Angeles, Cal.-Miss Josephine
Gilman, a charming brunette, ended a
remarkable fast of so days that she
undertook for love, and ate food for
the first time. She tasted under the
direction Of the famous Doctor Tan
Ger, to overcome a malady that threat
ened her life and had prevented her
marriage.
At the end of her fast, without any
food but orange Juice and water, she
appeared sprightly, and declared that
the last vestige Of disease had left
her. BY Ter side was her fiance,
happy over her recovery and helping
her plan the temporary dishes she
would eat, while Miss Gilman declared
there no longer was any bar to the
ringing of the wedding bells.
With them was a sister, Miss Helen
Gilman, who voluntarily tasted for 80
days SO the family could see the effect
of the treatment and Judge whether
the cure was too dangerous for her
frail sister Josephine to attempt.
81 just lost all desire for food" said
! Miss Josephine. "At first I was afraid
that l might be awfully hungry, but as
the days wore on / began to look on
things to eat as something that was
apart from me and in which l had no
desire to share. At first I was weak
and did want the good things l saw
the others eating, but that desire
passed.
II did not feel the pangs Of hunger
after the first three days, and l did
not lose much strength. Every day I
practiced at the piano and then l had
my garden to look after, and between
those duties and doing some cooking
for the rest Of the family. / put In my
time"

Mountain club. the president, Prof. q.
S. Morse of Salem, in the chair. The
meeting was q large one for q special
subject, showing how much interest
there is in Boston in the collection
and study Of shells and the creatures
that inhabit them.
The subject was the relation of what
had been done by the individual men,
bers during the season and began with
an informal account by Dr.. Paul
Bartsch Of the United States national
museum, a guest, who spoke of his col
lecting trip on the part Of the museum
to the Philippines. Here a new meth
cd was taken, that of enormous col.
lecting. the activities Of the crew of
the Albatross and of the scientists be-
ing engaged all the time.
The Philippines have always been
noted for the number and beauty of
the shells to be found there and in the
older days as many as 1000 species
49,
81 to their credit. But in this lot of
material there are hundreds of new
species and many new genera. The
dredging was at various depths ever
down to $4,000 Or 10000 feet. The
speaker described the place as a para,
disc for the shell collector. Great
tree snails abound. some of them
nearly az large as a pint measure,
with enormous quantities of minute
shells, all with colors that vie with
those Of the tropical birds and foliage,

known as a poultry raiser, Is respon-
sible for the story of how he is keep
ing his hens laying during the win
ter.
Palmer noticed that whenever eggs
assumed a high price his hens would
stop laying, and, after thinking the
matter over, he determined that the
price had a great deal to do with the
work Of the hens.
When eggs took their recent jump
Palmer put up a large sign in his
henhouse, reading: Eggs. 10 cents a
Dozen"
He declares that the sign has done
the work and that, while eggs are
bringing 4S cents a dozen, his hens
are laying every day without any
h%esitancy.
