Do You Remember ?

Do you remember, when you were q
boy back on the farm, the big white
house with the green shutters? Do
you remember when mother, dear old
mother, used to send you out to close
the shutters when the nights grew bit
ter cold? Of course you do. They'd
20 shut with a slam, but there was al
ways one of the shutters that was off
its hinges and how you'd reach up and
tug away at it before you got it shut.
Well, those good old days are over.
But we didn't intend to say anything
about shutters when we started to
write this. What we intended to talk
about was storm windows. We are
living in modern times. The old white
house with the shutters has been re-
placed by the modern bungalow with
the storm doors and windows. And
tits we'll. If you have not taken the
trouble to provide your home with
storm windows, just place your hand
close to the window and feel the cold
air coming in. Cut down the cost OF
your fuel bill and save doctors bills
by investing in storm sash. You will
be surprised to learn how little they
will cost you here. Rogers Lumber

Joe MILO IS A MODEL PRISONER.
Condemned to Die Next August by
Hanging But Does Not Worry.

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 25.--Joe Milo,
the confessed murderer of J. N. karst,
who is now in solitary confinement in
the state penitentiary here under the
sentence of death, is a model prisoner.
Milo confessed to the murder OF
Karst in an attempted hold-up near
Lansford on October 20. He also told
Of his partner, John Miller, killing H.
M. Seisl at the same time and place.
Miller was given life sentence and
is now at work in the Irvine factory
in the state prison. M..
Milo has been placed in cell in a
deserted tier and screen has been
placed before the cell to exclude any
sound. The death watch is kept over
the condemned prisoner night and day.
Milo spends his time reading maya
zines and censored newspapers and in
other ways. Twice a day he is allow
ed to go out for half an hours exer-
else. He eats good, big meals and
sleeps we'll. He is not at all nervous
or affected.
He said several times that he was
not worrying, whats the use?" He
acts cheerful at all times and some
times talks about his history. Milo is
but "a years of age and is rather
attractive looking person. He is said
to have the best set of teeth in the
penitentiary.
One of the officials said of the con-
demned man yesterday, "His conduct
is without criticism or reproach."
