Complain Of Dust.

A complaint againss the dust that is
said to arise from the operations Of the
Sigmon Furniture factory was report
ed by a councilman. who stated that
people living in that section had asked
that some steps be taken to abate the
alleged nuisance.
"some time ago had occasion to
call at this factory on a matter Of bus
mess. and | was surprised that some
complaint had not been made before
this" said c. C. Goetting The dust
rises and covers the yards and houses
an around The factory. 1t seems to me
that the management OF the factory
could construct a sort Of dust house
and cause the lint and dust to be con
veyed to this house by a pipe and do
away with so much OF it,

IN ECONOMICS.

A workman walked into a grog
shop and asked the man behind the
bar the amount of his months bill
He was told 1t was S11.10. With
hands grimy from a hard days toll
the man reached into his pockets,
drew out ten dollar bill and one
dollar bill and handed them over
the bar.
Just as he did so the saloon mans.
son came in and said, Father, moth
er sent me down to say that her new
hat will be done this evening, and she
wants you to give me S12 SO she can
pay for it."
Without a word the saloon man
handed the boy the $11 the customer
had given him and added another dol
lar to it, whereupon the workman
pointing his finger at the saloon man.
SAD: us that where my money goes?
Twelve dollars for hat for your
wife? Why, only yesterday / refused
my wife 81 for a new hat, because 1t
was too much. This is the last time

one else's family with my hard-earned
money am going to climb right up

Children. Color. Up This Picture.

Where would it look better?" asked
the terrapin.
Let me show you how well it would
look around my neck" said the tur
key. And the terrapin handed over
the fresh, red scalp.
With string the turkey tied it I'M
der his chin.
Now" said the turkey, 81 will walk
little way and you can tell me how
it looks" So he walked little way
and the terrapin called out that 1t
looked very well.
Now 1 will fix 1t different way
and you can tell me how it looks"
And he walked farther away.
ooh, that looks still better!" cried
the terrapin. When he heard that, the
turkey just kept on walking, and when
the terrapin called to him to come back
the turkey didn't even turn his head.
But the terrapin had his bow and
arrows with him, SO he took one of the
arrows which had been made by the
medicine people and shot it at the
turkey as he was running away.
Now the arrow struck the legs of the
turkey and broke into a great number
of pieces, like cane splints. And that
is the reason why the legs of the uur-
key have such lot of small bones In
them.
OF course, the turkey. even after he
was crippled by the arrow, was able
to run away from the terrapin, and SO
he has kept the beard he stole.
And, of course, when the little boys
found out what the turkeys beard
really was they knew why they were
never allowed to eat any of the neck
of the turkeys which the hunters
brought in.

The Umpire is paper published in
the East penitentiary of Pennsylva-
mia. Its pages contain frequent testi-
mony by the convicts to the influence
of drink in the wrecking of their
lives. Writes one: Seventy per cent
of crime is attributed to drink. Why
not make an effort to burn our
bridges and cut of the principal
cause of our being here? A petition
signed by 1,400 men and women In

the cause of 20 per cent of us being

of parole violations. Let US add our
little weight to the temperance cause,
as selfish precautionary measure, IL
for no better motive"
Says another: Many men are So
cial outcasts through the use of liquor.
1t was the cornerstone of my undoing-
Through 1t I gained acquaintances.
and lost friends. Sacrificed the wear
ing Of good, comfortable clothes to-
buy it, slept in barns and open fields
rather than buy comfortable nights
lodging, and called myself a wise
guy while the saloonkeeper, the lob
ster,' went to warm bed, and good
victuals, coy home and loving wife,
taking with him the earnings of a
poor man. 1t was the cause of lead
ing me often to beggary. 1t is causing
men to go to jails for villainy. It is

In its airiness and originality OF design.
From the establishment of Lewis,
in Paris, comes another simple and
striking hat for the end of the sum-
mer. 1t is blocked shape of hemp
fitting upward at the back. Except
for the wreath of full-blown pink ROSES
which extends over the crown and en-
tirely across the hair at the back,
and a fat sash of ribbon which slips
through slashes in the crown and ter
inmates in bow on the bandeau, the
shape is without decoration This
model was made for no less a person
age than the Princess Zezianoff, on
whom 1t is pictured.
No flower is quite so appropriate
when the. summer has reached its
height as the big garden rose for trim
ming midsummer millinery. But it
must be cleverly handled. An ap-
pearance of weight or overelaboration
Is out of place at this season. The
two models portrayed here demon
strate more clearly than words the
excellence of simplicity.

A great many pure white silk hats
are worn, especially in the morning, in
conjunction with smart tailored suits

These charming hats are as a rule
made with fat, narrow brims, and in
many cases the crowns are high and
straight, like the crown that was so
much admired when it was intro
duced some time ago. White peau de
sole or white shantung is favorite
material for covering these hats, and
some charming little models are en-

Long time ago. when the hunters
brought in wild turkey from the hunt
and the little boys stood round to see
how big it was, or tried to swing it
over their shoulders as the hunters
did, the old men would come into the
group and ask the boys if they knew
how the turkey got his beard.
Now, what the old men called the
beard of the turkey was the long, red
strip of flesh which hangs under it's
head; and because of it the boys knew
that they were not allowed to eat any
meat from the turkeys neck. So the
boys would ask how the turkey got
his beard, and the old men would tell
this story:
1t was after the terrapin had won
his race from the rabbit that the tur-
key met the terrapin on the trail. And
he stopped to ask the terrapin how it
was that he could beat the rabbit But
the terrapin would not tell about the
trick he had played on the boastful
rabbit; and he pretended that he could
really run very fast.
Well said the turkey, you may
be able to outrun the rabbit, but
think could beat you"
"Ho! ho!" said the terrapin, and he
wouldn't talk about the race any more
So the turkey stood on one leg for
while and looked around, and then
. he stooG-bn the other leg and looked
h.
the terrapin:
|. What is that you have hanging
iron your belt?"
That is a fresh scalp" said the ter
rapin.

TWENTIETH CENTURY POLICY.

scalp at her belt. She prays, of course,
but she keeps her powder dry and
shoots at the monster to kill. Her
success has established her ability to
