and acquiring the art of mixing, just
as these things are lone by the best
statesmen. The "knacks" are all prac-

east, where the crude notions of west
ern civilization have denied the latter
proper knowledge Of the use of the
finger bowl and where the question
has been heard in all serious igno-
rance: rs it farther from Minneapo-
lis to Omaha than to Philadelphia"
The truth is finger bowls are probably
more in use in the west, especially in
the smaller towns, than in the east,
and most Of the smaller western no
tells are fully as If not more metropoli-
tan and modern than those of the
east.
That Rome Miller, the author of the
finger bowl resolution, is with charac-
t~eristic energy and acumen defending
its justification must be admitted by
all fair-minded men who are following
it, and he can already point with sat
isfaction to tangible results, such as
greater care of cleanliness and neat
ness in the handling of the finger bowl.
Already a large number of leading
hotels have signifed their intention of
installing the paper finger bowl with
the silver skeleton holder as soon as
they are on the market, and many
popular-priced restaurants and hotels,
and also dining cars. have either dis
carded the use Of the old finger bowl
altogether or serve It on request only.
Therefore, it must be admitted that
the NV. H. M. A. resolution has al
ready rendered a great public service.

WARDEN'S DAUGHTER.

The life prisoner was little more
than a boy in years. To Mollie, the
daughter of the warden, he had the
saddest and most interesting face
that she had ever seen. She had seen
him twice, when she had gone into
her fathers Office while the convicts
were exercising in the prison yard
outside. She asked him about the

But it was morbid to let her

ers. Why was she thinking of him
tonight as she crouched beside the
upper window, watching keenly the
winding road that led to Haiters?
Downstairs her father sat before the
prison gates, his rifle across his
knees. There had been ominous ru-
mors in town of lynching party, to
kill the negro who now covered in
the furthest cell of the prison, charg-
ed with an unspeakable crime. But
old Warden Davis was of stern stuff
and he had let it be known that he
would lose his life before he lost his
prisoner. However, he had tele-
phoned to the capital for militia

Mollie dared not disobey. She
waited at the Office door. The
warden was alone, for the six guards
had all joined the mob. 1t would
have been worth their lives to have
offered resistance. And they, too,
were imbued with the strong senti-
ment of vengeance upon the black
criminal.
