STEADY JOB.

THE man who understands machines
Who knows the tinker trade.
Who can be when the works arc wrong
To them q quick first aid.
Should have an auto Of his own
And dodge the many Ills
That come to persons who must nay
Their own repair shop bills.
Then when he comes from work at nighl
Or has q holiday
He can get into working clothes
And while the time away
BY taking everything apart
To get a better view
And getting well acquainted with
Each bolt and nut and screw:
Then he can proudly strut about
In garments dark with Crime
And have there working BY himself
A very lovely time.
For exercise 1t IL as good
As team work on track.
All kinds Of twists and turns Il giveo
The muscles of the back
And as for riding-well, let's zee.

A week or maybe even less
That he can try It out.
Meanwhile he's getting It in shapA
The parts all bright and clean,
And saving quite q bit each week
On tires and gasoline.

PROTECT GRADE CROSSINGS
Large Number of Recent Accidents
Responsible for State Railroad
Commissions Activity.

Madison.-The state railroad COM
mission is waging a campaign against
the dangerous railroad crossings. AS
sisted by the engineering force, one
of the commissioners has devoted
several months Investigating the sit
uation. More than 1000 crossings
are considered dangerous and it is
the intention to make these as safe
as possible this year. Automatic dan
ger signals, including electric alarm
bells and Illuminated signs, are be-
ing installed at all dangerous cross
ings that are not guarded by watch
men. The separation of grades is be-
ing ordered wherever it can be with
out undue hardship on the railway
companies, Distractions that inter-
fere with the view of the tracks near
crossing are being removed. The
activity in this direction has been
stimulated by the increased number
of crossing accidents during the last
few months.

MANY TO GET DOLLAR A DAY
Six Thousand Wisconsin Veterans
Are Affected by New Sher-
wood Pension Law.

Madison.-Adjt-G Boardman's
office force is almost swamped with
work arising out of the new pension
law, act of May II, 1912, which af-
fects fully 95 per cent of the pension
ers in the state, every one in fact
whose pension heretofore has been
less than $50 per month. The de-
partment is sort of a free pension
agency, and many old veterans pre-
fer to have their papers made out
by the Acknowledgement.
There are some 5000 persons in
the state affected by the law, and
each one is anxious to get his claim
on file as soon as possible.

CHAPTER XVI.

The Judge Offers Reward.
The news of Charley Norton's MUIR

For two or three days bands of armed
men secured the woods and roads,
and then this activity quite unpro-
ductive of any tangible results ceased,
matters were allowed to rest with the
constituted authorities, namely Mr..
Belts, the sheriff, and his deputies.
No private citizen had shown
greater zeal than Judge Slocum Price
One morning he found under his door
a folded paper:
You talk too much. Shut up, or
you'll go where Norton went"
A few moments later he burst In
on Mr.. Saul.
Glance at that, my friend!" he
cried, as he tossed the paper on the
clerks desk What do you make OF

WISCONSIN CAPITOL

Madison. - The new S6,OOO,OOO
capitol building of Wisconsin will be
the handsomest structure of it's kind
IN the United States, according to
Lew +. Porter, secretary of the cap
ltoI commission and supervising
architect. With the exception of the
wisconsin capitol the most preten-
tlous structures are those of New
York, which will cost s2O,OOO,OOO,
and of Pennsylvania, which cost S.
100000. Neither in size, design nor
architectural beauty will either of
the two eastern buildings excel that
OF wisconsin. The cubic capacity of
the state capitol will be equal to that
OF the New York building and will
exceed that of the PENNSYLVANIA
structure
The great dome of the new build
ing rises 800 feet and four great
wings five stories high extend at the
points OF the compass. The extreme
length of the building from east to
west and from north to south will
be 426 feet. The ground area COW
cred is about 10000 square feet.

The capacity of the entire building,
exclusive of approaches, terraces and
areas, will be 100000 cubic feet.
The building has been under con-
struction seven years and it is rea-
sonably certain that it will be fin
lshed by July 1, 1916. Two wings,
the east and west, have been com
pieted The south wing will prob
ably be finished this year. The steel
frame of the dome is erected and will
be enclosed before 1913. The north

The interior and exterior decora-
tive work will represent the best

in the assembly and senate cham
bers will be by world famous artists
and will cost $4,000. The paint
ings in the governors reception

the reception room of the ducal pal

a regular mania for statistics has dis
covered that the plays of Shake

play, with $3.50 lines. and the Com
edy of Errors" the shortest, with LIT
lines. Altogether the plays contains
1.277 characters. Of which 157 are fe-
males.
The longest part is that G. Hamlet,
who has 11,610 words to deliver. The
part with the longest word in it Is
that of Costard in Loves Labor's
