If BURBANK ONLY WOULD

o, Luther Burbank, you have crossed
the apricot and plum,
You've done such woudrous things
that we are fairly overcome;
Your spineless cactus is superb, your
white blackberry, too
However, there is one great work that
waits for you to do.
Can you by any cunning trick, by any
subtle vile.
Cross two of last years bonnets so
they'll show as this years style?
We praise you for the beuefit we have
of all your toll,
For seedless prunes, for olives that
are dripping full of oil;
We've eaten your potatoes, and your
famed pineapple ounce
Impress US as something good for any
king or prince.
But can't you get up early, or stay W
few hours late
And cross years old bonnets till they
blossom up to date?
A man who can make fruits and
things take weird and varied forms,
And grow all kinds of plants that can
Withstand the heat and storms
A man who coaXes roses till they
blaze in wondrous hues,
Can surely see his mission in the
current fashion news.
Your fame will race around the world,
spread through each hemisphere,
If you will coax last years hat to
be in style this year.-Chicago

Change Course Of
Third Ward Creek
Committee to Have Further
Time to Consider Advisa-
bi1ity Of the Plan.

The possibility of changing the
route of the creek in the Third ward
and thus decreasing the cost of
macadamizing Lafayette avenue and
Second street for which ordinances
have been introduced on first read
ing was presented to the council
Monday evening by Chairman Ma
ton of the street and alley COM
mittee to which they had been re-
ferred at previous meeting. At
present the creek winds about in
such a manner as to require three
expensive concrete bridges in con-
nection with the proposed paving.
Nation explained that by chang
ing the route of the creek its
length for two blocks could be
diverted from the street on to pri-
vate property and thus reduce to
two the number of bridges needed
and reduce the necessary length of
one from $50 to 80 feet. He
stated further that the lot concerned
belonged to the Jones brothers from
whom he had written proposition
concerning the consideration for
which they would deed certain
strips of land to the city. Though
the committee was not ready to
recommend Its members considered
the proposition worthy of careful
consideration in view of the initial
expense and its future bearing upon
the financial welfare of the city.
Upon motion of Hedeen and Free
man the committee was given
further time for studying the situa-
tion.

ROADS EITHER MAKE OR BREAK
One Town Faiied to Pay Any Atten-
ton to Its Roads With the
Result That the Other Got
All the Business.

The road that leads to sleepytown
is causing much complaining, and
folks who travel up and down forget
their moral training. For when the
weather's wet that road is like the
swamp named Dismal, and horses,
with their wagon load, sink in the
depths abysmal. And motorists who
go that way are thrown into a panic;
their autos sink in liquid clay to beat
the lost Titanic. And when the
weather's dry those tracks are ridged
and rough and rutty and travellers
have broken backs or else are driven
nutty. And in the streets of Sleepy
town the citizens forgather, and say:
There's something keeps us down
and handicaps us, rather! Why is
our burg thus standing still, no prizes
ever landing? The rival village,
Rustleville, is growing and expand
ing!" The roads that lead to Rus
tleville are excellent, inviting; and
over valley, bridge and hill the trav-
elers go skiting; no broken axletrees
or tire brings forth burst of swear
ing; no horses founder in the mire or
swim for shore despairing. And SO
to Rustleville they go, the crowds,
with cheerful chatter; at Sleepytown,
immersed in woe, they wonder what S
the matter.-Walt Mason.

Lucille Cameron is an Iowa Girl.

Waukon, Ia, Oct. 2S.-Lucille
Cameron, who is one of the central
figures in Chicago's latest scandal,
is former Waukon girl. She is the
young woman whose affection for
Jack Johnson, the negro fighter has
stirred the country and brought out
threats against the black champion.
Miss Cameron spent most of her girl
hood here before moving to Mime
apolis with her mother. She still
has several relatives residing here.
Friends of the Cameron family are
greatly shocked over the disclosures
made at Chicago. They believe the
negro has some mysterious influence
over the girl as she was carefully
reared. She was an exceptionally
pretty girl when she resided here and
bright student at school. 1t is
said she was of an obstinate nature,
however, which accounts for her re-
fusal to give up her dusky lover.
The family moved from Waukon
to Minneapolis some years ago when
Lucille was just poisoning into
womanhood Since her removal to
Minneapolis she visited relatives here
and her striking beauty was widely
commented upon.
