Boy Attacked by An Angry Sow.

Woodbine. June 19-The year old
boy of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Roundy.
living southwest of Woodbine, had a
very serious mishap. A cross old SOW
made an attack upon the boy and got
him down and had help not been close
at hand the boy would doubtless have
been literally eaten up in a few min
uteg.
The father and Il farm hand were
working in the yards. marking some Of
the other hogs. The boy was sent to
the house on an errand for his father.
and returning past where the old SOW
and pigs were the vicious brute at

lacerated, as was one arm. If no in
lection sets in the lad will probably
recover. 1t was a mighty close call,
and even no worse it was a serious
and painful mishap. The old SOW was
brought to market shortly after and
started on the way to the killing pens.

NENAGH'S OMAHA
STORE EXPANDS
Omaha Bee Tells of Addition Of New.
Departments to the Popular
Sore "The House ct Menagh"
SURPRISES IN MERCANTILE LINE
That An Establishment Still in Its In
fancy Should So Quickly Expand
Surprise in Business Circles.

The House of Menagh at Omaha is
soon to branch out with several new
departments and penlsOn people will
he aiad to learn that the firm is meet
ing with success at that place. The
Omaha Daily Bee has the following to
say in regard to this we'll known estab'
lishmcnt that will be of interest to
people here in Denison:
In view of the constantly increasing
patronage and the corresponding in
crease in demand for other articles OF
apparel the House of Menagh has de-
cided to add three new departments
to its present store. The new depart
ments include millinery, knit goods
and corsets. az 49,, ID
The House of Menagh has beer
established in Omaha about eight
months. Exclusive lines of outer ap
parel for women, such as suits, cloaks
and gowns. have been kept, but the
rapid extension OF the business has
warranted the expansion OF depart
ments The new departments will be
installed by July 18th.
For such young firm. the House
of Menagh is one of the Omaha sur
prises in the mercantile business.
That an establishment still in its in
fancy should so quickly find eXpan-
sion necessary is real triumph, both
to its manager and the city. 1t clearly
shows that the progressive store is
bound to find success.
Since its opening the House OF
MenaGh has earned an enviable repu-
tation as a store of integrity. Only
the highest grades of wOmen's appar-
ell have occupied its rooms and the
result has been that the first order
has always brought subsequent orders.
Already well sustained clientele has
been established and it is for the ac-
commodation of this clientele that
Mr.. Menagh finally decided to add the
three new departments.
According TO Mr.. Menagh the three
new departments will be conducted
just as the present departments ha
been and are conducted. Special lines
be exclusive agents, will be carried
and these lines will be OF the best.
Despite the fact that these lines will
be of highest grade the prices are con-
templated to make all articles popu-
lar and within the range of every
body
A corset expert will be brought
from New York City to take charge
of that department. This will insure
perfect fitting and adjusting, thus
making the Menagh corsets as accur-
ate in fit as made to order corset.
The knit wear department will in
clude underwear and hosiery and the
like and will be complete in every de-
tail. The millinery department also
will be just as complete. Special eff
fort will be made in the latter branch
of the store to furnish all Of the ad-
vance styles as soon as they become
accepted. No rash decisions will be
made as to the latest designs, but ev-
cry hat that is accepted as fashionable
will be found at the House OF Menagh.

The Lazy Woodpeoksr.

W0Odpeckers are the greatest star
in beds of all the American birds, while
robins are among those who stay up
latest at night and get up earliest in
the morning A New Hampshire nat
uralist has made such careful observa-
tlons of the sleep habits Of native
birds that he can now tell pretty
closely the minute when any particular
bird will become sleepy In the evening
or will wake up in the morning.
By timing, day after day, the last
notes heard from various birds and by
listening In the morning for their
chirps and calls he has found that
their sleep habits are very regular,
though In the busy months Of spring
household responsibilities they are apt
to get up earlier than at other seasons.
On the average, downy woodpeckers
were not heard from after half an hour
before sunset and pileated woodpeck-
ers after an hour before sunset. They
slept in the morning until ten or TWEEN
ty minutes after sunrise, In contrast
to the robin, which Is up more than
an hour before sunrise, and the wood
pewee, which is up an hour and half
before sunup.
The robins, pewees and thrushes, he
found, generally retired for the night
about half an hour after sunset, 10
the woodpeckers usually took two or
three hours more sleep than the pewees
or the roblns.-Saturda Evening Post.

The Roof In Literature.

Northern literature has never taken
the roof seriously. There have been
many books written from the view
point of windows. The study window
is usual. Then there is a college win
dow and the Thrums window; also,
there Is a window viewpoint as yet
scarcely expressed of the boy OF
Stevenson's poems with his nose fiat
tened against the glass; cOnvalescence
looking for sallormen with one leg.
What Is "Un PhllOsOphe sous les
Tolts" but a garnet and It's prospect?
But does Souvestre ever go up on the
roof2 He contents himself with open
Ing his easement and feeding crumbs

out and scramble around the mansard
On wlntry nights neither his legs nor

PLAN BIG SAVING FOR THE LADY
OF THE HOUSE

OF THE HOUSE
New York, Jan. Establish
ment throughout the United States
of consumers cooperative societies
similar to those of Europe, through
which it is estimated millions of dol
lars will be saved to housewives and
householders, is the object of the
American Society for Thrift, in whose
interests Simon W. Straus, wealthy
Chicago banker, will study European
cooperative systems. Straus is in
New York today to prepare for four
months trip abroad.
The American Society for Thrift,
Banker Straus explained, is not CO.
operative society. 1t will accept no
subscriptions or donations. 1t is
backed by the governors of Okla
homa, Michigan, Idaho, West Vir-
ginia, Washington, New Mexico, Del
aware, Arizona, Utah, Alaska and
Massachusetts, and by statesmen,
philanthropists and prominent educa-
tors.
"In Great Britain alone" said
StraUs, "2,40O societies have a mem
bership of 2,615,321. They did bust
ness far in excess of what United
States Steel Corporation did last
year, and divided profits of millions
of dollars at the close of the year.
Five million dollars worth of bust
ness is now done in America by SINH
lar societies. believe that in ten
years they will be doing business of
$25O,00O,000. Including all of Eu-
rope, cooperative societies last year
had total sales of $7OO,OOO,O 900. If
this can be done in Europe, it can be
done in America"
