ITO Our Patrons" this interesting
information is impaired:
I'VE wish particularly to call your
attention to our transparent work.
We load these goods in the bird 's-eye
spot work, which is an inlaid spot
coming flush with the surface of the
dice We also load the common, or
binary concave spot dice. This work
is so cleverly executed that they defy
competition. We also manufacture
a transparent dice for Klondike or
bar dice, which are neither loads nor
shapes, yet are much stronger than
either of the others. These goods
have an advantage over loaded work
for this reason They do not favor
your opponent when shaken on the
square. If you have never used this
work you should not be without it
for a single day. We also manu-
facture a shaped or buffed dice, trans
parent dice that will go for square
goods SO times out of hundred. Our
latest and one of our most clever
productions in the transparent line
is our adhesive dice They are about
the same strength as shaped work,
but have this advantage-they size
up perfectly all around Wise ones
will stand for them just the same
as the novice. We guarantee every
dice sold by us to be perfect in ev-
cry respect. All this work is made
by practical dice men, who, upon
receipt of your letter know exactly
what you wish the dice to do. No
guesswork about filing your order.
All our dice are guaranteed to stand
any rough usage you may want to
subject them to- No mercury or
cheap amalgams used in their con
struction."
Varieties Of loaded dice, listed ac-
cording to numbers, are then de-
scribed.

THE MANUFACTURERS OF THESE
GOODS ADVERTISE AND SELL
THEM OPENLY.

If a manufacturer of dishonest
gambling tools advertises them and
sells them, and withal does a thriv-
ing trade in them, one who knows
nothing of the subtleties and techni-
calities of law would imagine that
somewhere in the American legal
code there is a statute under which
such dealer can be punished, says
the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Dishonest gambling is merely a
form of thievery. 1t is as much steal
ing as burglary The burglar enters
your home with a Jimmy and taps
you on the head with the butt of a
revolver, if necessary. to relieve you
OF your wealth. The dishonest gam
bier entertains you, buys you drinks,
gives you cigars, tells you funny sto-
RES, and between joke and an an
ecdote takes your money. The diff
terence between a burglar and a dis
honest gambler is the difference be-

law Furnishes them both as thieves,
but it Furnishes the burglar more Sc
yerely The law, you see, is some
Jhlng OF cOnnoisseur. 1t appreci-
ates art.
But since the law recognizes dis
honest gambling as felony it would
seem logical that the law should hold
IN the same esteem the manufacture
and sale of tools that make the fell
ony facile if not possible.
For years there have been firms
engaged in the business of manufac-
turing and selling dishonest gam
ping goods. These firms have not
been hiding their plants in out-of-
Jnne-way corners and by-ways of the
city The have large plants in the
heart of the city. The amount at
which they are capitalized ranges
from $4,000 to $4,000. The vol
ume of business done by all of them
IS estimated at 100000 annually.
Inc business of one firm alone is
SAID to reach close to 100000 a
year.
These firms make no pretense at
concealment They are frankly in
the business of manufacturing and
selling loaded dice, marked cards,
poker hold-outs, cold-leck machines,
llNed roulette wheels, crooked faro
boxes, electrically and mechanically
controlled games Of all kinds. They
advertise their goods like any other
business concerns. They set forth in
glowing detail the excellencies of
their wares in circulars, which are

over the country to prospective GUS

Riders Wife" a compelling story by
Mrs. Cora Harris, wife of the I'M
fortunate gentleman who met death
near Gainesville. 1t is believed to
have been largely a personal nara
tive, with just enough of magma
ton about it to make the thread of
the story run smoothly. Indeed,
there may have been very little i'm
agination or romance in it, so truly
was it told
The Rev. Mr.. Harris lived in Ten
nessee. Under the terms of the law
it was necessary for his estate to be
administered. The widow was the
administrator The clerk of the court
asked her for an inventory of the
property left by the deceased so that
the records might appear in proper
form. In reply she wrote to the
clerk that the tangible part of the
estate was so small she feared she
could not schedule it correctly. When
the preacher died he had in his purse
$3.50 in money, SIG ON deposit in
a bank, library of 400 books, and
the coffin in which he was buried,
for which latter he had paid $85

widow wrote, was invested in heav-

ever recognized as one of the largest

The widow said also that the "in-

taxed by the various churches
which he had served, but she had
no criticism to make on that score,

CARE OF THE HORSE IN WINTER
Bulletin by the Georgia College of Agriculture

Winter is the season of sudden
changes of the temperature, pleasant
sunny days followed by stormy ones
with cold rains, sleet and snow. On
the highways, farms, lanes and city
or town streets mud is the rule. Dur
ing this season the care of the horse
is very important. Upon the care
he receives depends his health and
usefulness. The horse is probably
the best friend of man. in that,
among domestic animals he is the
most useful. The horse, after being
worked or driven, if allowed to stand
should always be blanketed in order
to prevent sudden chilling, which is
productive of colds, lung fever and
pneumonia. After the horse has
worked or Travelled all day and comes
to the stable with his heavy winter
coat of hair all sWeated and his limbs
all covered with mud do not jerk his
harness off, throw him his feed and
rush off in search of a good warm
fire, but stop and think how much
more comfortable he will be after
good brushing of his body and a thor
ough cleaning of his legs. See to it
that this is done. Your horse will
rest better, will do better on the
same amount of food, and many i'll
nesses of greater or lesser severity
may be avoided Careful attention
to cleanliness Of the feet and limbs
during muddy or snowey weather
will prevent many cases of scratches,
grease heel and other troubles,

In icy weather do not send your
horse out with smooth shoes expect
ing him to keep his footing and pull
a load at the same time, when you
know you would have to wear rub
bers or spikes yourself in order to
walk. Give him chance. Send him
to the shop if his shoes are smooth,
or leave him in the stable. Slipping
on ice may cause spTains or rupture
OF muscles, tendOns or ligaments,
fractures of bones, or may bring
splints, ringbones or spayins.
DO not blanket your horse in the
stable Just as well wear your over
coat in the house and take it off
when you go out. Experiments have
proven the wisdom of clipping work
and driving horses in winter. The
heavy coat of hair becomes soaked
with sweat and dries slowly while the
horse is at rest. Result, "a chill.
The clipped horse does not sweat so
readily, consequently does not chill
The winter food of the horse of
course, depends upon the work that
is required of him. However, dur
ing this season carbohydrates (starch
foods) are required more than in
summer. If your horse has a period
OF rest on account of lack of work or
bad weather cut down the proper

RESERVOIR UP THE RIVER

The indications are that in the near
future work will commence on an i'm
mense reservoir up the South Fork,
something like so miles from Rigby,
the water to be conserved being for
Twin Falls country. At the point
where the dam will be constructed,
rock walls arise on both sides of the
river to height of something like
100 feet, the channel of the river at
this point being $50 feet wide. The
dam, so the Star learns, will be 1876
feet high, and this will back the water
for nearly eight miles, taking in a
number of ranches, among them being
that of Hy Edwards, and also the
ranch owned by Geo. e. Hill and a
number of associates. The reservoir
at its greatest width will be two miles
wide and near the Edwards ranch
will be 70 feet deep.
The Kuhn-Loeb interests are said
to be back of this project, which is
certainly very large undertaking, as
