Campaign Cigars =?

The following dispatch came from
Duluth "John Bergman of Palmer,
,Minn., yesterday told of an attack by
wolves Tuesday night. With only
four cigars as weapons he successful
ly held wolf pack at bay until as
>s1stance came from the camp where
he is employed He went to Palmer
on the afternoon train Tuesday and
was walking to the camp in the
dusk. He saw wolves cross the road
in front of him and then the pack be-
gan to close in. He had no weapons,
but he did have four cigars.
Fighting all four cigars, he jab-
bed the lighted ends at the wolves,
only stopping long enough to puff
the protectors to keep them going.
When he finally came within hailing
distance Of the camp he was exhaust
ed. Men ran out with guns and the
wolves fed.

INDOOR CLOTHES DR1ERS.

A few words must be given to the
subject of drying clothes in winter
! Drying in the house is undesirable
from two standpoints-that of white,
sweet-smelling clothes, and that of a
dry, sanitary dwelling; hence drying
should be done in the open air When
ever practicable But no matter how
we'll chosen the washday, it is seldom
! that all the clothes can be dried out
side in winter Woods are always
shrunk and made harsh by freezing,
and the colors of both woods and good
; prints are liable to be injured by such
; treatment; hence such clothes must
frequently be dried indoors.
/ Drying devices, either homemade
or patented, may be used for drying:
clothes in the house and even in the
| kitchen at night, when the room is
| not occupied, although this is not the
best place for drying. If it is the
| best place available, it must be used
A homemade device that can be put
up and removed readily may be con-
trived by using the following articles:
! Two large screw eyes, one for each
end of the line, firmly fixed in the
wall at convenient place and height,
a cotton clothes line of proper length
with snaffle like that used On horse
halters, firmly fixed to each end of
this line. Such line can be put up
and taken down readily by simply
swapping the snaffles in or taking
them off the rings or screw eyes fixed
in the wall. Such device, with the
aid of the clothes bars commonly
used in every home, would accommo-
date a large number of wet clothes
over night or probably all the clothes
after ironing when hung up to be
; dried more thoroughly before laying
away. Such space for hanging clothes
can be easily extended by screwing to
the opposite walls series of common
small pulleys around which the
ASAoHAISANu NAOuACO 4AuC l1ldy DC Tuu
and laced back and forth across the
room from the first screw eye on one
! wall to the last screw eye on the fur
Their side of the opposite or the same
wall, or heavy, open hooks may be
used instead of the pulleys.
There are on the market, patented
| devices for use in drying clothes in
doors. One is similar in appearance
to common clothes bars, unhinged
and Suspended horizontally in mid
air from support in the ceiling. It
can be raised and lowered by rope
which runs over pulleys fixed to cross
bars screwed to the ceiling at one
part and to the kitchen wall at the
other. Such a device raises the
; clothes to the warmest part of the
room where they can dry rapidly,
where they may hang at any time
when the kitchen is free from the
dust of cleaning, and where they are
out of the way of anyone moving
about in the room.

How The Mighty Have Fallen.

Great are the victories of ciyiliza-
ton. Cole Younger has been robbed
OF sos by an ordinary pickpocket. A
great many of US had forgotten all
about Cole, who with Jesse James
and kindred spirits, held up trains,
shot bank tellers and relieved travel
ers of their valuables, until the ,un-
fortunate raid on the bank at North
field, MIMI, brought the gang to
grief and sent some of them, includ-
ing Cole to prison.
After his release Cole tried vaude-
. vile a while but did not hit it off and
for many years has been living in re-
tirement in his native state, Missouri
It was while attending a lecture by
William Jennings Bryan at Lees
Summit that a tyro of a. pickpockets
lifted the roll of the professional.
It would have been about as diff.
cult to imagine thief robbing Cole
as it would have been to conceive an
assassin taking a pot shot at the
colonel.-Savannah News.

as MRS. Meredith's Prison Mission"
! Mrs. Meredith was the daughter of
the governor of the county Jail of
Cork, in Ireland, and founded the

many years ago, in conjunction with
her sister, Miss Lloyd. Both these
women are now dead, but the work
they began goes on.
This may seem like small mat
ter, but it is a scheme that holds

Modest Mr.. Morgan.

The money car Of America, as he
talked on the witness stand before
the congressional committee, prob
ably furnished precisely the inform
alton desired to point the way to-
ward legislation designed to impose
salutary restrictions upon the money
power. Mr.. Morgan depreciates the
power of money and employs an I'M
Ineligible apothesis of credit for
the purpose of showing the impot-
ency of mere money. The general
public will stumble in it's effort to
follow him through this labyrinth of
reasoning. 1t is to be expected that
man would entertain singular no.
tions of wealth who would deny the
exercise of power, as Mr.. Morgan
did. and who would have to search
his memory to recall the trifing in
yestment in banks stocks of "only a
million or 500
The matter Of interest, however, is
what the Morgan syndicate does and
how it does it, rather than what Mr..
Morgan thinks of the proceeding;
and this is pretty we'll disclosed APP
parently the great fnancier talked
frankly without manifestation of
desire to Withhold anything The
manipulation of millions was told
with Indifferent candor If Mr.. Nor
gan had terminated the incident by
lighting cigar-his own favorite
brand of strong Havana-with a
$4,000 bill, he would have been sur
prised at the wonderment it pro-
voked.-St Paul Despatch.

Advertiser and Local PnDer

The relation Of the local paper the advertiser should
be congenia one is less dependent upon the
other When the advertiser places advertising in the local
he expects results The newspaper when it accepts
advertising promises in effect that the paper has local
circulation commensurate with the rate charged
Advertising should be given in good faith as it is ac
copied in good faith It is purely business transaction
The newspaper sells it's space services the advertiser
just any one sells any other commodity
There three things for the advertiser to bear in mind
First he should map out systematic advertising cam
paign and be persistent in carrying it Second,
should prepare his advertisements they are attractive
interesting and convincing Third he must back up his
advertising campaign with good SERVICE or he cannot ex
pect hold his trade and get the results out of his
advertising
The advertiser must realize that all responsibility for
the preparation Of the advertisements are with himself IF
the advertisements have merit results should be ex
pected. It is ridiculous to blame the newspaper when
neither the advertisements conditions warrant results
There is more interested in seeing advertisements
profitable than the newspaper the advertising in the
paper what makes the publication of the paper possible
thus aiding in the dissemination of local news creation
of local interest," and the building of the local community
all of which necessary to the of local business
On the other hand there should he stronger in
his friendship for the local paper than the advertiser
The local newspaper is the best friend the local advertiser
enemy but rather friend and semi partner in the task
of business getting.

Turkish Soldiers Without Fezes.


Fer the first time, we read, the Turk
ISL soldier is going to war without
the fez. Mahmud H., when he changed
the uniform of his army, tried to in
troduce the shake, but the opposition
of the soldiers was too strong for
him. The fez is certainly poor coy
ering for men on active service; for
even the change Of it's color to khaki
did not get over it's feebleness as q
protection against sun or bad weather.
Hence the headshawl devised some
time ago to be worn twisted around
the fez. The Turks devotion to the
lez is clearly explained by Duckett
Ferriman: "The prejudice against the
hat rests on a religious basis. If the
lanai (form of prayer) is rightly per-
formed the forehead mus touch the
ground. The brim of hat or the peak
OF cap would prevent this"

Mosietn Women. in Future Life,

Are women admit ed to parad1se!
is a question that is often answered
IN the negative. We find, however,
more than one passage in the Koran
that distinctly speal:s of future life
IN paradise for women. The most
often quoted is the one promising the
faithful that he will meet in paradise
besides his own e1rthly wives seventy
two houris-not an attractive pros
pect for the poor women. who have
suffered enough in this life from the
humiliations of polygamy! But In
the fourth Sura we find the following
more definite statement: But whose
doeth good works, whether he be-
male or female, and is a true belie1
er, they shall be admitted into para
disc, and shall not in the least be
unjustly dealt with Life in the
Moslem East, by Pierre Ponafidine.

THERMOMETERS
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author Of cat Good Old Siwash.s

THE thermometer Is a sort of yard
stick for measuring the weather.
By means of the thermometer
we can tell whether it is hot OF cold. The
thermometer consists of a glass tube
with a slit in it about as thin as a comic
opera plot. The tube ends in a bulb in
which d quantity of mercury IS impTis-
Oned In warm weather the mercury ex-
pands and climbs to the top of the tube
causing sunstrOkes, prostrations, huge
ice bills and soft butter. In cold wealth
er the mercury retires into the bulb
like a wOodchuck hunting his hole and
all traffic is paralyzed until it emerges
again.
Before thermometers were invented it
was very difficult to keep track of the
weather. To find out how cold it was
the scientist had to leave his ear outside
the house. IF the ear froze in a few
minutes he could safely assume that he
was in the bosom of a long, hard winter.
The thermometer, however. has put the
whole world onto the weather and has
enabled man by mere glance at the
tube of faithful mercury to tell whether
to wear a heavy winter cane or a thin
spring stick.
