sAVAGES. AND CLOTHES.

Csrefulness That Was Not Appreciated
by the Missionaries.
Ardent missionaries were trying to
convert the natives OF a village In I'M
clad Africa to modesty as we'll as TO
Christianity and for that purpose pro-
vided them all with more or less COM
plete outfits of clothes. The natives
were delighted and spent several days
simply In parading in civilized garb
through the one narrow village street.
But when Sunday arrived and the
blacks thrOnged TO the weekly church
service. carrying the new clothes In
bundles under their arms, the mission
aries were dismayed and feared some
kind Of barbar1c outbreak But since
Cling Of curiosity and reverence on
the part Of the natives they decided
to ask no questions until after the
service. There was a normal quiet
until just as the sermon was begun.
Then suddenly a huge chief. who
had been sQuatting with his face to-
ward the open doorway, leaped to his
feet with an exclamation.
Immediately the others Of the tribe
did likewise, crying. The sun-the
sum-" unwrapped their bundles and
proceeded 10 put on their clothes.
What does It all meanT inquired
one OF the white teachers.
The old chief turned to him with
equal amazement. ''Of course" said
be. I'VE could not wear our beautiful
ornaments when the rain might come
and spoil them. New York Tribune.

Wanted in Chicago for Assault
Steve Deketolias was placed under ar
rest Sunday on a charge of assault
pending against him in Chicago and
he will be take to that city to answer
to the count. He was taken into GUS
tody by an officer as his wife was TAX
en- home from the city hospital 1t is
alleged that Steve assaulted James
Hallas by kicking him and breaking a
rib. The fight occurred in October
and Steve had been in Moline a large
part of the time since then. He kept
watch for the coming of officers and
generally "ducked" to Davenport when
they approached his domicile. He had
been under surveillance for a month,
and the police merely waited for his
wife to recover from her ills before
swooping down on him.
Will Work IL Hours a Day.-Men in
the Moline Pillow company will stay in
the shop II hours each day from this
time on through the chilling months
Rush of business, not cold weather, is
the cause, however. In some depart
ments the working schedule is from
one day TO the next. In the cutting
shearing, and malleable departments
the 24-hour life obtains Two shifts OF
IL hours each turn out the work OF
these sections. From $50 a. m. unit
p. m. the men will stay by their ma
chimes. Arising by lamp light and re
turning home in the dark will be thC
life of the toiler from this time unit
March. Lack of capacity and short
ness of time is the reason for the add
ed hours of employment. A shortage
of material has precluded the lOnge
hours earlier in the season, and ever
yet shops over the entire country ar
held back on this account

Retires on 5oth AnnIversary.-With
the advent of the 5Oth anniversary of
his birth, George NJ. Gould retires from
active business life. For more than 20
years Mr.. Gould has operated a lock
and gunsmithing establishment in Mo-
line, and few are the residents Of this
city who have had no dealings with
him. His closing will affect large
number in large degree. After an ear
ly life of rowing, most of the time on
the Tailroad, Mr.. Gould returned to
this city in 1891, starting a shop on
what is now Library avenue, which has
been his work place for 20 years. He
planned the day of his retirement the
day he began his enterprise.

suddenly cut loose. He was arrested.
A charge of disturbing the peace was
preferred against him before Magis-
trate S. A Cartwright and the case
was set for preliminary hearing Jan.
is. VerMeersch's bond is 5000.
Would Dodge $4,000 Guarantee
Upon technicalities, the Barber Ar

I of national reputation and of wide

dodge the payment

WITH THE HONEY MAKERS.

BY no means store comb honey In
the cellar, as it is sure to sweat and
become moldy. Better put II In the
attic, rs the heat can in nowise harm
it, provided. of course. that 1t isn't hot
enough to melt It.
The best and most profitable way for
the average beekeepcr to dispose Of
unfinished sections Is to extract all
that will not sell as second grade for
as much as extracted honey will bring
and use them for bait sections next
year.
In preparing the hives for the late
flow proceed in precisely the same
manner as for the early flow. using the
same supers as formerly. only, of
course, putting in new section boxes
with foundation for comb honey to
take the places Of the completed sec
tons taken from them
The extracted honey when stored in
cans or barrels can be placed in cell
lars or other convenient repositories
and unless bottled early will In all
probability granulate as soon as the
nights become cold. but this granula-
ton in no sense hurts it. and the heat
ing required to liquefy it for bottling
In n large measure prevents further
granulation. Farm Journal
