An ingenious implement for sitting
ashes is the ash sitting shovel design,
ed by New York man and shown
herewith. AS will be understood by
the name. it performs two operations
practically simultaneously. The scoop
of the shovel, which is unusually ca
pacious, is meshed and bound in iron
strips. In the back is series OF
sharp toothed wheels, projecting
slightly through slots in the bottom
of the scoop. so that when the latter
is passed over supporting surface
the wheels revolve and cut the larger
cinders into pieces small enough to
fall through the mesh. Good coal
will be too hard to break up in this
way. Therefore as man takes a
shovelful of ashes from the heater he
need only turn to an ash box with a
strip on top, on which to operate the
wheels. and pass the shovel across
this once or twice.

ton in the little city of Spokane that
started all the trouble leading to this
crisis in railroad affairs. 1t costs more
to ship goods from Chicago. for in
stHnre. to Spokane than from Chicago
to Seattle The railroad theory. which
is Il theory held sacred from the be-
ginning OF railroading. was that since
Seattle had the advantage of water
transportation and ira llc to and from
it wHs aupted by water competition
it WAS entitled to lower rates for the
long haul than Spokane received for
the short haul As il matter of fact.
the Spokane rate WAS equal to the
back to Spokane.
The rates We're made according to
the old principle of he long and short
haul. In effect this principle ho1s
that lower rate per mile should be
charged for the long haul for the rea-
son that the long haul keeps ears EN-
ployed over the entire route and ter
minal charges are lower. and it also
holds that rates must be regulated in
accordance with water competition if
railroads are to secure Il fair amount
of business between places which have
the advantage of the cheaper traffic by
water
Spokane was not the only interior
point which complained that this prin
ciple of the long and short haul was
unjust. 1t affected many much more
important interior centers. and as soon
as Spokane business men had taken
their initiative their example was fol-
lowed by commercial organizations in
Salt Lake City. Kansas City and
scores of other interior points. Soon
there were before the interstate COM
merce commission applications for
changes in Il multitude of rates, and
all these cases. grouped together. be-
gan to be talked of as the intermoun-
tain rate cases.
The decision of the interstate COM
merce commission was rendered last
July. 1t found in favor of the appli-
cants in all the cases. In the Spokane
case it directed the railroads to rear
range their tariffs so as to give lower
rates to the interior points by Oct. 10.

TAFTS IN MOVING PICTURES.
President and Wife Taken Walking In
White House Grounds.

President and Mrs. Taft posed for
two moving picture operators. who set
their camera up in the grounds in the
rear of the executive mansion and took
IA running picture of TIE president and
his wife as they walked through the
grounds. The president and Mrs. Taft
walked out into the grounds through
the basement door and spent several
minutes within range of the machine.
Ihe moving picture men had their
,mcras already set UP and succeeded
IN exposing several thousand feet of
film. They also took views in the in
terror of the White House and at the
executive offices.
The pictures taken will probably be
combined in a sketch to be known as
"A Day at the White House." which
will be displayed before the people not
only of this country but of the entire
world within the next few months.

hopes to have installed in all the
schools of the country.
TT will go far to solve the child

Doctor Claxton today. "for children

school and at the same time earn
more money in their after school
hours than they a nov earn IN any
factory. Their health. morals. educa-
ton, all would be improved.
The plan which I hope to see car
ried out Is to have each school child
cultivate a small piece Of land. Even
on a quarter-acre a child could earn
more by raising vegetables than he
could obtain in a factory. At the
same time the child would be gaining
a valuable training, getting his educa-
ton, keeping his health and preparing
to become a useful citizen.

HORSES HURT STREET TREES
Simple Expedient to Protect the Tree
From the Teeth Of the
Horse.

protection from horses is not so easy
as protection from insects. The for
mer is largely dependent on the
sweet reasonableness" of the driver.
II he recognized the value of the tree
and the property rights therein of the
abutter and the city, we are convinced
he would take pains to keep his horse
from the tree-to suppose otherwise
would be to suppose the driver an I'M
j patriotic boor.> But such recognition
of tree values is amazingly rare. and
that not among drivers only. So that
the time is not yet when we can trust
the matter to sweet reasonableness."
In this as in other matters, we are
still on the hither side of the millen-
MUM and still need to invoke the
laws compulsion. Ravages due to the
billings of horses will not be material
ly lessened until citizens everywhere
unite against the evil. The citizen
should frown it down where frowning
will achieve results. Where it will
not, he should cooperate with city Of
ficials in enforcing the law against
the evil. In towns and cities the
trunk of every tree. whether young or
old, newly planted or in full growth,
should be enclosed to a proper height
in a wire guard or wire netting of a
small mesh. This simple %expedient
would effectually protect the tree
from the teeth of the horse. Every
property owner should thus guard the
trees abutting his tracts of realty, 1t
would cost but little. 1t would
achieve much. 1t would end the hav-
oc wrought by the horse.

RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL COLOR

The old idea of using sage for
darkening the hair is again coming
in vogue. Our grandmothers used to
have dark, glossy hair at the age OF
seventy-five while our mothers have
white hair before they are fifty Our
grandmothers used to make sage
tea" and apply it to their hair The
tea made their hair soft and glossy
and gradually restored the natural
color.
One objection to using such a prep
aration was the trouble of making II,
especially as it had to be made every
two or three days on account OF sour
ing quickly. This objection has been
overcome, and by asking almost any
first class druggist for Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy the public
can get a superior preparation OF sage
with the admixture of sulphur, anoth-
er valuable remedy for hair and scalp
troubles. Daily use of this prepara-
ton of sage, with the admixture of
sulphur, another valuable remedy for
hair and scalp troubles. Daily use of
this preparation will not only quickly
restore the color of the hair but will
also stop the hair from falling out
and make it grow.
Get bottle from your druggist to-
day. Use it and see for yourself how
quickly dandruff goes and gray hairs
vanish
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is
recommended and sold by specia |
agent, Pendleton Drug Co.
