LITTLE WAHB TAD.
Warren w. Lamport.) J

Warren W. Lamport.)
Little Wahb Tad
Was an Indian lad.
And the pride Of his dad was he.
He lived where the bay
Of the Saginaw rolls on its way
To the floods Of the Huron sea.
And along the same shore
For half league and more
Had Monk-cho. the sturgeon. his home;
Where he lived out his day
In full round OF play
With his brother monks. racing away
] Ur and down thru the brineless foam.
Now Monk-cho loved best.
When the waves were at rest
On the edge Of the shingly strand.
To push up on the sand
And sleep in the sun
AS his fathers before him had done.
A most excellent way
Of spending day.
Or an hour of its tedum to rob;
But as risky thing
As a trap with a spring
When the Indian was on to his Job.
For fish
Was the redskins favorite dish.
And fisherman bold was he:
And the way he could land
His prey on the strand
Was sight that was worth while to see.
Then again. with soft and cat-like tread
He would creep from the strand
With his tomahawk gripped in his hand.
And would bury It deep in the sturgeon head.
Then jumping astride
The old lord of the tide
He would hold him down fast
Till his struggles were past.
And when all was Ger
He would haul him up safe on the sandy shore.
Now little Wahb Tad
Caught the trick of his dad.
And he said he would do the same.
periIous thought
For the youth to have caught.
But Wahb was true game;
And as sure as your born.
On bright sunny morn
He planted his tommy kerplunk
In the head OF q monster old monk.
And straightway straddled his back.
But alas. and alack!
1t was only flesh deep;
And. aroused from his sleep.
The old king of the tide
Backed of and proceeded to give Wahb q ride
With the speed
OF mermaid driving her favorite stccd.
And all went we'll
For spell.
Wahb held to the handle and guided the course
OF his fiery and untamed aquatic horse.
To and fro. here and there.
Round and round everywhere.
Until wearied he thought him once more
Of the friends he had left on the fsrswsy shore.
And the same
They might safely have reached at the end OF
the game,
Had not Wahb. little man.
Disconnected the plan
By pIumpins his toe
In the belly Of old Monk-cho
And tickling him 80
That he clspped down his I'm
Der the urchinis shin
And suddenly dropped meath the tide.
Thus unceremoniously ending the ride.
And that was the last OF Wahb Tad.
Our cute little Indian lad.
He was never seen moro
Long the Saginaw shore.
At least. tbs the story that's told
BY such Is remember the brave days Of old.
But sometimes at night.
When the moon shines bright.
FuIl-orbed and with soft snd irrsdisnt light.
Far out on the sheen
OF the glade may be seen
A shadow that glides to and fro.
They say it's Monk-cho
And little Wshb Tad: but do not know.

heads Of many q legal firm and is
Iconspicuously printed on contracts
and other important documents. In
hotels this request is sometimes used
as heading on each page Of the reg
lister or printed on a card. It hangs
i'm plain view Of the counter.
A room clerk In one Of the big
hotels declares that the task Of de-
lciphering signatures has reached q
crisis.
ut has got to the point. where we
couldn't bluff on names any longer"
he said. 'In these days Of constant
telephoning and telegraphing we've
simply got to be sure that every
guests name is correctly entered on
our books or there's bound to be
trouble.
"Of course a successful hotel clerk
must have gift for deciphering bad
signatures just as he must have q
good memory for names and faces,
but when man we've never seen be-
fore comes In and scrawls a long
wavy line on the register without a
single letter plain enough to even
guess at, how are we going to call
him by name the next minute? He
may have important mail waiting for
him or he may be telephoned for any
minute, so our request for a legible
signature arises out of necessity"
A member of a law firm on whose
letterheads Is printed "a legible sig
nature is requested" says that these
few words have saved his firm much
trouble. Papers no longer have to be
returned for resigning, as was for
merly the case, because the first sig
nature could not be read. Before this
request for a legible signature was
made important legal documents often
had to be entirely rewritten because
one Of the parties refused to accept
the signature Of some Of the others
on account of their ELIGIBILITY.
A large employer Of labor has made
1t rule recently to have all applica-
lions for work brought to him. He
orders each letter folded so that the
signature alone shall show. He goes
over these, picks out the signatures
that appeal to him and gives these
applicants precedence over the others.

BURIED ORCHARDS.
Peach. Trees That Are Turned Under
Ground to Escape Frost. :


Ground to Escape Frost. =
The burying of entire peach or
chards for protection against late
spring frosts is common practice
in the intermountain valleys Of
eastern Colorado. In areas where
not more than one full crop in seven
or eight years has been previously
harvested annual yields are now
to be counted on. A net return of
$25 from each peach tree is not un-
common.
Irrigation facilitates the task of
burying the trees. Just before a
hard freeze is due in the late fall
the Colorado orchardist digs q
trench to each peach tree which
he expects to ''lay down" aud turns
|, on the water, allowing it to run
until the soil about the roots is
thoroughly soaked. He then can
undermine the trees and bend them
down. with little difficulty. They
are held to the ground by heavy
plank or by ropes until a covering
of hay is spread over them and a
layer of dirt shoveled on top Of
that. Two inches Of dirt have been
found sufficient protection in 30
below zero weather.
Orchards are left PROSTATE and
covered until the last bit of danger
from frost in the spring has passed.
In the higher localities this danger
period is not before the 10th of
May. When the hay and dirt are
finally removed mass of pink
bloom greets the orchardist. He
will tell you it is the prettiest sight
in the world. Sometimes, if the
season be late, tiny peaches will
show their green heads among the
pink blossoms.
After raising the tree brace IS
applied and left against the trunk
through the summer. An orchard
of trees all propped in this manner,
their branches all leaning one way
and showing more foliage and fruit
on one side than on the other, pre-
sents novel picture to the Colo
RADIO tourist.
l have been told that peach or
chards subjected to this burying
treatment were short lived. Last
season | saw one weighted down
with big, luscious peaches. 1t had
been buried for ten successive win
tiers and had yielded six full crops.

Restaurants.

A restaurant Is a place where you
pay four dollars for fifteen cents
worth Of food, accompanied by about
two dollars worth of light labor, light
china and light music, which you have
heard before. After leaving your hat
with Wall street syndicate, you pay
all the way from ten cents to a quar-
ter for the privilege of getting it back
and wearing 1t once more. The diff
ference between a man and woman
indeed today is quite simple A wom-
an pays fifty dollars all at once for
her hat, while man pays five dollars
for his and fifty-five more in tip in
stallments for storage at restaurants
while he is vainly trying to obtain
enough nourishment to sustain life
between times.
The object of all restaurants is to
furnish you with everything you want
except nourishment. This is carefully
extracted from all food before 1t
reaches you.
Every restaurant nowadays has at
tached to 1t a homeless hotel and a
drugless drug store, also a newspaper
stand, where you can buy q paper for
not over twice what you can get it
for almost any night you don't want
them at the same rates. Every res
taurant also has q wine cellar, which
Is filled with native cobwebs, Euro
pean, labels and California grape juice.
