Break in Water Main
Drves Forest Hfllites to
Tub It in Mflk, IF at All

Residents in the higher por-
tions of Forest Hill bathed in
milk this morning-that is, If
they didn't pass up their morn
ing ablusions altogether. Some
of them no doubt found the
eltzer bottle mighty handy A
few ingenious souls thrust their
movable tubs and other water
holding vessels beneath the leak
in the porch gutter, thereby OBJ
tanning an ample supply of the
precious fluid which was so
plentiful without and SO rare
within.
The big water main broke just
north of the Second river. By
quick work the water depart
ment fixed the break by $3.50.

CRAZE FOR FREAK FASHIONS
Bird Petticoat. Menaeerie Stocking
and Snapshot Shoe Are the Latest
Fads of the Women.

Now that the hobble skirt is be-
coming somewhat frayed and the
novelty is wearing off we are to have
a bird petticoat. We already have
the little angel hat, the jockey cap,
the snake hat, the coal-scuttle cha
peau, the Quaker bonnet, the torpedo
toque and the animal veil. AS if
that list was not sufficiently terrible,
there is also the menagerie stocking
and the snapshot shoe. These are
absolutely the latest freak fashions.
The menagerie stocking is made of
silk, Isle or homely cashmere. Up
the LEG and across the instep animals
are worked in natural colors.
The bird petticoat-which heralds
the return of hounces-is an ordi-
nary petticoat, as skinny as possible,
with deep founce. This is covered
with sife-sized birds Of every hue and
description. Peacocks, reproduced
in their dazzling glory; blue birds
pink birds. humming birds, even
condescending canary birds are in
enormous request.

MUST HAVE sELF-coNFlDENcE
Every Youth Should De Brought Up to
Think Well Of Himself II He
Would Succeed.

Many children so from school and
COLLEGE knowing b great deal, but
without q Bit Of Improvement in
their self-conGdcnce their initiative.
They are just US timid, shy and self
depreciatory as before entering Now,
what advantage is it to send a youth
out into the world with head full
of knowledge, but without the conf
dence or assurance to use it, or the
ability to grapple with life's prob
lens with that vigor and efficiency
which alone can bring success?
1t is of the utmost Importance
that every youth should be brought
up to think well Of himself, have
great confidence in his ability. He
should be reared in the conviction
that he was intended to fill a place
in the world which no one else in the
world could fill, that he should ex-
pect it, and train himself for it. It
is a sin to shake or destroy a child's
self-confdence, to reflect upon his
ability or to suggest that he will
never amount to much. These dis
couraging words, like initials cut in
the sapling, grow wider and wider
with the years, until they become
great ugly scars in the adult.-Suc-

ADVERTISING GENIUS.

The boy of the family, the smart
little son Of an editor, had Just
passed his ninth birthday and de-
lighted in stirring things up when
ever he found a chance. On his way
to school one day he popped into a
confectioner's.
"Say, mister" he called out, "do
you keep fondants?'
ooh, yes replied the confectioner,
"we've kept them for years
"Well," returned the boy, starting
for the door, "just advertise in pas
paper, and then you won't keep them
so long"

Nashville, Tenn, March IL
While the searchers are busy at the
j. H. Fall building. the walls Of
which collapsed Wednesday during
a high wind, all hope of taking any
other workmen out alive has been
abandoned. 1t is believed that prob

the wreckage has all been removed.
1t is claimed that half a dozen
negro workmen were observed near
the center of the building, where
the debris is thickest, just a few
minutes before the crash came. 1t
is also understood that probably
several iders and on.lookers who
usually hang about such places talk
ing to the worknen. were also
caught by the walls.
At II o'clock to-day thirteen dead
and fourteen injured had been taken

TELLING FAIRY STORIES.

Society women are finding a new
outlet for their mental activity in
the art of telling fairy tales to chill
dren. And it is an art. The woman
who thinks it isn't has only to try to
learn how unreliable are the MARIA
tive powers of the inexperienced.
Mrs. l.. T. Meade, author, is one of
the several women who have proved
their ability to hold an audience of
youngsters by recital of fairy tales.
She has the gift to a remarkable de-
gree, and it is said she never fails to
keep company Of little folk quiet as
mice when once she has launched
herself in thrilling account of the
adventures that attend a journey
into the country that Alice found be-
hind the looking glass.

CAPTURED A WILDCAT.
vorce counse

A notable reputation has been at
tanned by Charles Hughes, a farmer
near Durnwell, Neb., by his capture
alive Of a 40-pound wildcat, the
largest ever seen in that district.
Hughes dog followed the cat
through the creek bottoms and
chased it into a den and then re-
fused to enter Hughes crawled in
after the cat, but when the animal
showed fight he backed out. He
wrapped his coat around his right
hand and entered again. When the
cat rushed at him this time Hughes
jabbed his protected hand into the
animals mouth and throat and held
it there until the cat became insen-
sible. Then he drew the beast from
the cave, tied its feet, gagged it and
carried it home.

WAS SURE OF THE SAUSAGE
Butchers Recommendation Of Other
Meat as Tender Didn't Appeal to
the Young Married Man.

AT Battle Lake young man of
mild and embarrassed manner pro-
posed to the most broad gagged, de-.
termined and commanding woman
in the place and was snapped up.
Husband made two small bursts of
speed for independence. He found
his rightful place inside of ten force
full minutes. All the neighboring
women admired and envied the
wife's control and wondered how
she did it.
One night recently his wife gave
him Is cents and told him TO get
some meat, and her parting injunc-
ton was:
Don't You come home with meat
that isn't tender or you'll hear from
me-"
The young man ordered a piece
Of steak.
rs that steak tender?" he asked.
TENDER replied the butcher.
"Why that's as tender as woman's
heart ~
The pale young man shuddered,
looked around the shop and said;
'I'll take some sausage meat. =

pROsAlC GHOST.

Mr.. Alfred Tennyson Dickens, the
eldest surviving son of Charles Dick
ems, related some interesting remi-
niscences of his father, in the course
of an address, in London recently,
on "My Fathers Life and Works. "
The life at Gad's Hill provided the
lecturer with several anecdotes. One
related to a ghost which hauntt I a
neighboring piece Of waste land, on
which stood a monument to Cava-
lier named Charles Larking. AS the
maidservants all threatened to leave,
Dickens, armed with a double-bar-
eled gun, and his two sons with
bludgcons, set ont to find it. Sud-
denly they saw a white object and
heard an awful noise. Dickens cried
ont, "Stand fast, or fire" 1t proved
to be an asthmatical old goat.

"And the thermometer had to reg

about the temperature of the room.
Beauty doctors have discovered that
a woman's good looks are regulated
largely by the thermometer. There
is a certain degree OF heat OF cold
at which every woman looks her

specialist has found the becoming
