Overlooked.

A man whom everybody in Cleve-
land knows and whom almost every
body in Cleveland likes, wandered in
to our office the other day and greet
ed us sadly.
Cheer up we said in surprise, for
he is usually merry. What seems to
be the matter this morning?"
To-day is my sixtieth birthday he
responded gravely.
Congratulations. You don't look
it and you don't feel 1t, and don't
see anything to be sorrowful about. :"
1T isn't that. But, see here. I'm
pretty we'll known in this town, ain't
/? Lived here all my life and am
fairly successful in my profession
And I'm the only man in town,
believe, who has arrived at my age
without ever having been called thu
dean of anything by the papers
What's the matter with you fellows
anyway ?"-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Delightful Bathing the Year Round.


Few people realize that right here

those who are acquainted with these
splendid baths will testify that the,
Sanitarium Baths, 50 West Third

have actually experienced full recov-

Sanitarium.
The Sanitarium Baths invite you to,
come and bring your family and enjoy
swim in this wonderful water. The
pools are emptied and cleaned twice;
every week and lady and gentlemen
attendants as well as instructors make
1t desirable place for you to bring
your family, for catering to the bet

highly desirable patronage enjoyed by
the Sanitarium Baths.
In connection with the large swim

Turkish Baths. Tub baths and pri-

Petitions for the initiation of the

good roads purposes in Colorado are

addition these petitions have also
been sent to every commercial body.
and it is hoped to have the $1,000 sig.

the measure may be among the first
to be filed with the secretary of state.
These petitions are being sent out by
the Colorado Good Roads association.
and the campaign is being handled en-
tirely by that organization, the mem
bership of which is rapidly increasing
in every part of the state.
The constant increase in the member
ship of the association is one of the
best indications of the popularity Of
the campaign now under way to secure
for Colorado the funds which are need.
ed to carry on the road work now
under way under the supervision of
the state highway commission.
Unless the measure as proposed is
adopted by the people this fall, the
building of roads by the counties with
state aid will be practically at 4 stand
still. The half mill levy proposed win
