Buzzard Carries or Dog.

Eagles are said to be game enough
and strong enough to carry of almost
anything from a man to cat, but
the first instance known when a buzz
card carried off dog was witnessed
on a recent afternoon. The incident
happened few miles from Bessemer
A very brave little fox terrier was
endeavoring to chase off a large buzz
zard that had alighted on the ground
He only succeeded in making the
buzzard fly close to the ground for a
short distance. The buzzard stopped
on a short stump and waited for the
dog, which came barking around the
root Of the stump.
The buzzard, seeing his chance,
jumped from the stump. seized the
dog in its mouth and claws, and flew
to a thicket near by.--Birmingham

New Conundrum.

Here is a conundrum which your
greatgrandfathers asked each other
when they were little boys:
"How many legs has a dog II you
call his tail leg?"
"Five!" shouted the little great
granddad OF Mr.. A.
Wrong" corrected tn diminutive
greatgranddad of Mr. 3. Because
calling his tail leg doesn't make 1t a
leg"
am reminded Of this venerable
brain twister of youth by the follow
ing lines in the Clayton anti-business
bill:
THE District of Columbia shall be
deemed a state within the meaning of
this law"
So l shall modernize that ancient
query by propounding the following:
How many states in the United States
If you call the District Of Columbia a

Anecdotes.

the fact that no man living can look
quite so solemn when producing hui
more as Irwin S. Cobb, the we'll known
comedian of the Saturday Evening
Post When Cobb was on the staff
of one of the big New York newspa-
pers he did various news assignments,
some of them mighty serious and 9TH
ers that gave him chance for COM
edy. II was a standing joke about
the office that anybody could look at
Cobb as he bent over his typewriter
and tell which kind of yarn he was
writing. II his face was all wrinkled
up with solemnity like bloodhound's,
with a sad look about the eyes such
as one rarely sees except In an under
takers hostler, Cobb was preparing
something that would maae hosts of
people laugh.

NJ ONE single Styhe dominates III
~ coiffures just now, although the
French twist may be said to hold the
lead in popular favor. 1t does this by
virtue of it's novelty and not because
1t can lay claim to being a becoming
arrangement Except when the hair
is waved and the twist made very soft
and rather close to the head its out
lines are too severe for any but very
youthful faces.
A becoming couture is shown in
the picture given here. 1t is also
one Of the easiest to arrange. To
dress 1t the hair is loosely waved all
about the head and the front portion
parted of. The back hair is combed
to the top of the crown and twisted
into a soft knot or puff at this posi-
ton.
The hair at the center of the fore
head Is combed back, but SO loosely
confined that a strand is brought
down over the forehead and pinned
with small wire pins so that it forms
soft, light puff in this position.
In order to make the hair at the
sides stand out softly from the face
it is to be supported by small pads
Of crepe hair or very short and small
hair rolls. 1t can be kept in position
by "fiuffing" it; but this process in
jures the hair finally and it is much
better to use the supports, which are
very light and easily pinned in.
The hair is combed loosely back
over the supports and pinned in at
The Clio messenger. (Clio, Mich.) 1907-current, 1914-11-06

each side of the knot at the crown.
Here the ends are rolled into small
puffs and pinned at either side Of the
knot. These puffs fill in the break
between the knot and the hair at
each side. The result is couture
Of graceful lines and simple and TASTE
full arrangement.
A very good way for dressing thin
hair has been devised with the aid of
small hair roll or supports Of crepe
hair. The hair must be frizzed or
combed about the face by dampening
and doing up on crimping pins or
braiding it in tight, small braids over
night. When it is combed out in the
morning the stray straight ends are
curled about the face with the curling
iron.
All the hair is combed back over a
small hair roll, forming a low pompa-
dour. 1t is tied at the back rather
low on the crown and separated into
four or five strands. These are rolled
into puffs and pinned across the back
of the head.
Thin hair is rather difficult to keep
in place and hair net is brought
over this couture and fastened In
many places with invisible pins. 1t
is left very loose across the fore
head when the hair Is arranged in a
short side part, dip, or in any line
about the face that best becomes the
wearer In this style no extra pieces
of hair are used, but the hair roll as
support is an essential. The Golf
fure will not be a success without It.

Avert Strike
STATEMENTS ARE ISSUED
The Present Agreement In Hitp71inous

The Present Agreement In 5itu71inous
Fields Eoes Not Expire Until
March 81.
At the adjournment of the meeting
of the coal miners and operators rep
resenting western Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois, in Philadelphia,
the ultimate otucome was uncertain.
but the situation appeared hopeful.
Although the statement was made
by the miners that a disagreement
does not necessarily mean a strike,
the operators received the declaration
with smile.
The agreement between the oper.
ators and the miners does not expire
until March 81. /
The following statements were is-
sued by both sides at the conclusion
of the conference:
"The joint conference OF coal oper-
ators and miners, representing Ohio.
western Pennsylvania, Indiana and
Illinois, were unable to agree upon
the matters Of difference between
them.
There appeared to be several ques-
tions upon which they could moi, agree
at this time. Failure to agree how
ever, does not necessarily mean a
strike in the bituminous coal mining
Industry. The breaking off OF the nego'
tiations Is a matter Of concern, but
the situation Is not even serious"
The operators statement was as fol-
lows:
"The representatives Of the coal op.
orators of western Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois met In joint
conference with the miners represen-
tatives from these respective states
and were confronted with the follow
ing demands OF the miners:
II. A universal mine run basis.
"2. A fat five cents per ton advance
and a 10 per cent increase in day Ia
Dor, these two itoms alone amounting
to s14,O0O,OO advance per year.
"3. A complete check of, notwith-
standing the grave questions In re-
gard to the legality Of the check Oh
and numerous other demands.
"In turn the operators demanded:
a. That the rights Of the employ
ers and owners of property be recog'
nized.
"2. That the machine dlfferential In
Illin ois and Indiana be adjusted.
"3. That no check off be made.
az. The establishment Of court OF
last resort to arbitrate all disputes.
"5. A proper financial penalty for
violation of the contract for either
party.
sc. The right to employ sufficient
supervising officers for the protection
of life and property with other minor
demands.
"After nearly three weeks argument
the operators offered to renew the
present wage agreement which car
ries with It the highest wages paid In
the coal mining industry in the world.
This offer was made Notwithstanding
the present business conditions. This
proposition was refused by the min
ers."
