oid-Fashioned Drug store Seems to Be
No Longer a Necessity Of Life
in Modern Day.

"The old-fashioned drug store,
where a man could obtain in a few
moments all of the materials for a
first-elass sickness, to say nothing
Of suicide, seems to be passing" says
one observer. at has gone through
various stages in its development
from the herb to the postal card. The
first druggist was equipped only with
a bronze ak. He went out and cut
up roots, boiled them over a fire and
produced a combination hair restorer
and physic. From this idea started
all of the patent medicines"
We are not as dependent on drug
stores as we used to be, because we
can die a thousand new ways every
year. There are motorcycles to hit
us between the curb and car tracks,
and aeroplanes to drop on us.

SIMEON FoRD's CLOSE SHAVE
Famous Hotel Man Almost Guilty Of
Forgetting Somewhat Familiar
Acquaintance.

Simeon Ford was standing in the
lobby of his hotel the other day when
a tall, portly, well-dressed man en-
tered and leaned over the cigar stand,
carefully examining the wares within
before making a purchase.
81 know that man." said Mr.. Ford.
'aIis face is perfectly familiar, but
somehow | can't place him at the
moment; and I'm supposed never
to forget guest after speaking to
him once ~
Mr.. Ford was evidently annoyed.
He stepped across to the cigar stand,
passed the time Of day with the
portly, well-dressed man and came
back again.
"Did you identify him ?" asked the
acquaintance to whom Mr.. Ford had
been speaking.
"0h, yes. He's the barber who
has shaved me every other day for
eight years. But this is the first time
l ever saw him with his white coat
off and his black derby on"

HAD CONSIDERATION FOR OWL
Small Boys Anxiety for Solemn Bird
at Least Showed Possession
Of Kind Heart.

A fluffy little screech owl ha,
taken up its abode among, the
gnarled branches Of an old apple
tree. On recent rainy days the owl
has attracted fair-sized audiences Of
passers-by by crawling out from the
hollow where it has its nest and
spending hours in solemn contempla-
ton Of the curious ones below. Seat
ed on a branch, the buff-colored owl
stares downward with unwinking
eyes, and when someone walks
around the tree the owl slowly turns
its head to follow every movement.
A little boy was walking around
the tree when | happened along. The
little chap walked around twice, and
then suddenly stopped and started
around in the opposite direction, So
berly, almost anxiously, watching the
little owl turn its head.
81 guess I'd better walk back" ex-
planned the boy, because if / don't
the little owl will twist its head right
off,"

APPEARANCE OF MARS.

Should the planet Mars always ap-
pear round to the observer, or should
il, like Venus, show only part of its
circular disk? The planet presents
slightly 'gibbors" appearance when
it is in quadrature or nearly so, i. e.,
when it is about six hours away from
the sun. AS an extreme at such
times, the loss of light would result
in an illumination about equivalent
to that of the moon when three days
away from full. When the planet is
in opposition, it is of course fully
illuminated, and at other times its
phase, as given above, is not very no
ticeable.

from a field which in some sections
produced 400 bushels to the acre, and
which were grown in Moffat county
in a district where there are 100000
acres of state land and 100000 acres
under the Carey act, were received in

The sum of S55, 900, appropriated by
congress for expenses of the exposf-
tion to celebrate the fiftieth anniver-
sary of the emancipation of the negro
and to show the advancement and
achievements of the negro race in edu-
caticn and in the industrial work of
the nation, to be held next year, near
Richmond, Va, will be turned over
by the government to depository at
Richmond, when designated by the
governor of Virginia. This fund may
then be withdrawn by order of the
treasurer of the Negro Historical &
Industrial association of Richmond,
Va, approved by the governor of the
state. The treasurer of the organiza-
tion will be required to give bond to
the Negro Historical & Industrial as
sociation, as the governor may direct
or approve. No bond will be required
by the United States, the disburse-
ment of the fund will not be done
under federal supervision, and no ac-
counting to the federal government
will be exacted.
This outlines the procedure set down
by w. W. Warwick, acting controller
of the treasury, in response to the
inquiry of the secretary of the treas
ury as to the manner of withdrawal
of the fund rom the treasury, and as
to what bond, if any, the disbursing
agent should be required to execute to
the United States, and how the money
should be accounted for. 1t is stated
in the reference that Giles B. Jack
son, president of the negro organiza-
ton, has given notice of the appoint
ment of disbursing agent.
Acting Controller Warwick points
out that the appropriation act provides
only for supervision and direction of
disbursement of the fund by the gov
ernment of Virginia. He also cites
the precedents, indicating the alb
sence of any responsibility to give
bond or to account to the United
States for proper disbursement of the
appropriation.

The agricultural department of the

SO far has been voluntary and has not

never put forth any effort to reach

the laundryman, the grocer, the veget
able man, in brief virtually every bust
ness man and employe, is directly in

restaurants in his district. In view OF
the fact that prohibition has beer
shown not to prohibit in other states
and yet to keep tourists away, it is moi
a matter of wonder that people in all
lines of business are opposed to trying
prohibition in Colorado, especially as
the adoption Of prohibition would kill
the local option laws OF the state.
