fixed 10000 feet since lacking up
her sign.
Pretty feet? There are lots of
them" said Mrs. Ware. 81 have
found that women have -prettier
feet than men, hut the prettiest
thing in Gods creation to me IS a
baby's pink dimpled foot. OF the
men the working class have better
formed feet than the business
men or the wealthy class. The
laborer has no time to bother with
pinching his feet to make them
look pretty, so you will more often
find a pretty foot inside a pair OF
huge logger boots than in patent
leather pumps"

She says that there Is only
about one person in. ten who has
not something wrong with his
feet, either bunions, ingrown toe
nails or corns. But with. all this
and even more Mrs. Ware declares
that there are many pretty feet.
But about the feet of women
she resumed "Some have corns
you know, some have no shape at
all-and some"
The pretty girl in the big chair
buried her face in her handker-
chief and sneezed-then peeped to
see If her bare foot was showing.

THE USEFULNESS OF THE
BOARD OF PARDONS

Many state papers are severely
criticizing the county commits
sioners of Washoe county because
they refuse to stand the expense
of bringing Attorney Schnitzer
and some woman back to the state
to be tried on charges of perjury,
under indictments recently found
by the grand jury. The Review
would like to ask, at this time,
what en- courag ement there is for
Washce, or any other county to
spend the public funds for bring
irg criminals to justice? With
a board of padorns that turns
thieves and murderers loose upon
the commonwealth after they have
served but a mere fraction of
of the sentences imposed upon
them, the pretended enforcement
of law becomes a farce and tie
penalty of penitentiary
sentence an idle jest. Criminals
who have committed the most
dastaruly outrages against society
are dealt with as might be some
school boy who merely trespassed
against the rules of dccorum.
Until the present habit of turning
criminals loose before they have
barely commenced to serve the
sentences imposed upon them is
discontinued, we can net blame
Washoe and all other counties if
they utilize their public funds for
purposes that will bring more
satisfactory results. If the present
system of Furnishing criminals is
wrong, the statutes ought to be
rectified; but no board of pardons
should he permitted to promis.
cuousyl thwart the will of judges
and juries who have rendered
what they believe to he honest
verdicts and sentences under the
law rs it is given them Clark
