fusillade from the doorway. Poor
Tommy lodged behind the bed Sim

fresh ranch eggs. Tommy now fed,
but grabbed the door key as he ran.
Sim understood. Tommy was com.

bed, oil stove and table against the
door. He was in the act of uprooting
the stationary wash basin when a
balmy, squashy, not-quite-so-guaran.
teed ranch egg hit him in the bridge
of his nose. 1t bad come over the
transom.
The next one decorated his shirt
front. The third missed him and
broke the mirror. Eggs now came
thick and fast two whole dozen, at
35 cents per. pursuing him to the fire
escape. With simian agility he made
his way down to that corner grocery
and asked for more eggs.
But Sim was in too big a hurry to
explain. He gathered up all the eggs
left in the crate, put them into
huge paper bag and with Charge

He shut the window to prevent a

Steps, soft steps, ascending the
stair! A head looming from the semi
darkness, looking inquiringly into the
room.
Whizz! Pfosh! An egg cleaving
the air and finding It's mark.
Got ye, did II" yelled Sim, tri.

A scream. Feminine. Not the land

stifled the scream.
"Sim Wellington. you nasty, good

And the girl-young, pretty and all

NOTICE
Condition of Water Supply

CODQltlOn OF water supply
In contradiction of stories which
have recently been circulated in re-
gard to the quality of the supply OF wa
ter of Bingham Water Dist, we read in
the report of Director H. ID. Evans, OF
the State Laboratory of Hygiene, to the
local Board of Health, of analysis of
samples of water sent to him on Sep
TENDER goth.
II he sample from the Bingham
Water District is in safe condition to
use for drinking. and for all domestic
purposes as it is free from all evil
dence of contact with sewage wastes. y
Il expect that the odor and taste,
which you mention, are caused by the
annual oyerturning of the waters OF
the POND"
In its present condition this water
from Jackson Pond is entirely safe
to use for drinking purposes.
1t would seem, from the above, that
the stories, above mentioned, were en-
tirely without foundation, and had
their origin in the minds of those who
were ignorant of conditions, or had
the desire to deliberately misrepre-
sent.

Al. n. Wilson.

AL. H. Wilson, the singing German
dialect comedian, is underlined at the
Colonial Tuesday night, November 70,
when he will present his song-adorned
comedy in three acts, entitled ut Hap
pened in Potsdam," an adaptation
from the French by Cyril Reed. 1t is
described by the author as straight
comedy with the German atmosphere
supplied by the star in the droll char
acter of Metz Won Klatz, an extensive
traveller who employs his time search
ing for a wife. 1t is highly musical
and the new songs injected by Mr..
Wilson are said to be among the best
that he has yet given to The pubic.
They include "She Loves Me, Lozes
Me Not" my Lady Fair" Loves OF
Bygone Days." and new yodel, ''The
Twiligbt's Call"
