Dear Sir-In our eagerness for
Christmas bargains we must not over
look our daily needs. Hull Brothers of
fer us real bargain in pork chops at
4c per pound, and boiled ham at Ice
per pound. This is substantial redue-
tion in the price of one of the costliest
foods on tine market to-day, and is a
bargain which is of interest to almost
everyone, as the great majority of us
live on what we call ''meat diet,
especially in the winter time.
In these days when the cost OF iiv-
ing is SO high, bargain which helps
us to reduce our daily expenses is a
bargain indeed.
Yours very truly,

Dear Sir read your bargain page
on Wednesday and | think that the
best bargain is "Shope's Painless
Tooth Extraction, /" the only thing that
is advertised for nothing. Besides what
would Christmas be like for a person
who is suffering from toothachei The
turkey, cranberry sauce, candy and
everything else good to eat that goes
with Christmas would not taste good
if the teeth were not right.
The Shope Sanitarium offers to pull
teeth both without pain and without
payment. I think that is the best bar
gain and if l had the toothache /
would be sure to go to Shope's Sani-
tarium to take advantage of it.

Birds That Fiuht EaqIes.

In Foula. one of the Shetland is
lands, the natives make business OF
rearing skau gulls In order to rid the
islands Of eagles that congregate there
and commit many depredations The
magnificent red sandstone cliffs that
skirt the northwestern coast became
a favorite haunt of the eagles and in
this inaccessible spot they increased so
rapidly that they became Il terror to
the farmers and fishermen who dwell
on this isolated spot The skau gulls
are also strong and fierce and the in,
veterate foes of the eagle, In battle
the gulls nre nearly always victorious,
and so the inhabitants Of Foula hit
upon the novel plan of feeding and
caring for the skau gulls. which,
though formidable to their feathered
enemies, are very peaceful and docile
when brought in contact with man.

They Seemed to Clash Trifle, So the
Court Made a Change.
1t was formerly the practice of the
supreme court to sit from II noon until
o'clock continuously on each day
that 1t was In session. From time to
time, as the afternoon progressed, the
justices, one or two at a time, would
slip out of their seats, snatch bite of
luncheon and return Sometimes as
many as four or FIVE Of them would be
Off the bench at once They usually
had their luncheon brought to them by
their messengers and ate 1t In the little
curtained recess behind the bench, and
as the argument progressed there could
be plainly heard in the courtroom the
clink of knife and fork ON plate and
what 0. Henry has called "the crash
of dishes on the American PLAN"
One day lawyer pleading a case
made bold to enter protest. He most
solemnly inquired If he could count
upon the continuous and undivided at
tention of even one justice to the thread
of his argument. "The personnel Of
the court has been twice entirely
changed since began" he said plain
lively.
The court deigned no response, but
on the following Monday 1t was an
nounced from the bench that recess
for luncheon thereafter would be taken
every day from to 2:30 o'clock and
that the court would sit until 4:30
o'clock every afternoon = Worlds

UTAH's NATURAL BRIDGE.
The Secret of Its Origin Somewhat
Puzzles the Scientists.

Puzzles the Scientists.
What is thought to be the largest
natural bridge In the world is that of
southwestern Utah. known as the
George natural bridge The total length
of this great work of nature is about
200 feet; its wsJth-i. e.. the roadway"
lis about thirty-ive feet; the span in
the clear Is about ninety feet. At the
base there flows small water course
which, during the hot months, dwin-
dies to mere livulet.
Scientists are somewhat perplexed to
explain the means by which nature
produced this bridge. 1t is thought
hardly possible that 1t could have been
created by water erosion, unless, as
was most unlikely. there was very
large and swift stream flowing at the
point where the brook now runs.
Some authorities are inclined to the
view that this bridge was due to vol
canic action. occurring at some remote
geological period.
Although long known to the Indians,
It was not until about fifteen years ago
that white men became familiar with
the sight of it. Mining prospectors
were the first of the whites to see 1t,
since 1t is located in the heart Of
very rugged and inaccessible region. i
The span is composed of dark
brown sandstone of unusual hardness.
and the thickness Of the span is twen-
ty feet or more
Engineers who have examined this
bridge assert that 1t is perfectly safe
and secure and that 1t is fully capable
Of sustaining an immense weight, espe-
cially as the span is free from flaws or
seams.-- Washington Star.
