10 KNOW FUTURE HUSBAND
Many Old English Customs and Su
perstitions Center Around
Christmas.

All down the ages girls have been
eager to find out their future destiny
whether they will be old maids,
or, as they are now called, bachelor
girls" or wives and mothers. Christ
mas. rs well as all the other festivals,
has been allotted its customs and su-
perstitions through which the secret
Of the future may be learned.
To find the answer to the impor-
tant question, wife or old maid, girl
had to 20 alone on Christmas eve
and knock on the henhouse door. II
A cock answered her knock by crow
ing, she would be married, but If no
cock crowed in answer, then she
would be an old maid. This under
taking would require a good deal OF
courage in the old days of superst-
tiCn, as on Christmas eve evil spirits
were supposed to have increased pow
er and ghosts were supposed to prowl
around
If girl wished to know the name
of her future husband she took four
onions and named each one after a
boy friend. She then placed one in
each corner of room and the one
that sprouted before January 6 bore
the name of the man she would
marry.
In some districts this was carried
out rather differently. Several onions
were selected and named and placed
close together, and the one that
sprouted first gave the name that was
to be hers. We can imagine how
carefully the warmest place would be
chosen for some special onion.

The telephone plant is not easy to
explain, nor to uproot. 1t is growth
of most peculiar habits, preferring
electric wires to the nourishing earth.
1t is an air plant, something like an
orchid II has no roots, but derives
its nourishment from the air the seeds
evidently being carried by the wind or
birds and insects to some substance
where they lodge and sprout. This
growth is found most frequently on
insulated wire although it has been
observed on bare iron wire that has
rusted. 1t has never been seen on
new bare iron, copper or wire cable,
and causes little trouble, as the mass
is seldom large enough to cross two
wires.-Telephoning.

NOW is The TIME TO CLEAN.

II you have not already a fire de
partment, organize one.
See that the water supply is in good
condition and kept that way at all
times, ready for any emergency.
Get together and have a cleanup
day All turn in and help to keep It
up. Don't lay down because one or
two may shirk their duty. but keep at
il idl the time: and remember, every
fire prevented is money in your pock-
cts, and the fewer fires, the less your
insurance will cost.
Don't overinsure; you are paying
out money uselessly, for if you should
have a fire the chances are ten to one
you won't get the full amount of the
face of your insurance policy, and II
you use care you won't need probably
one-half the amount you now carry.
and that means saving which is your
right.
Clean up and prevent fire. 1t is in
teresting work and it pays and pays
big. Get together, one for AL and all
for one, for fire prevention and saving
in fire waste.

EONFIR e S,

This is the season OF the year in
which many of the citizens of our State
are engaged in cleaning up their yards
and premises of rubbish which has
accumulated during the winter
months. These piles of rubbish are n
most instances burned, and the ut.
most care and caution should be taken
to prevent these bonfires from caus-
ing serious conflagration Seventy
two fires in this State during the year
1913 were directly attributed to bon
fires, and the property loss was not
especially great. However, the rec
ords of the Fire Marshal Department
at Springfield, Illinois, show that fifty
five persons, mostly children. were
burned to death in that State last
year by these same bonfires.
Children should never be allowed to
play around bonfires. and these fires
should be carefully watched by some
adult person to avoid possible serious
accident or fatality.

Insanity.

The statistics of insanity show that
the minds OF men and women are
often made aberrant through the
steady drive of environment, in which
the simple life and the spurripg city
life are equally at fault. The1gures
show the per capita Of insanity differs
little in city and country. Rural soil
tude and the abnormal life of the city
are alike responsible for mental dis
eases It is as bad for man to be too
much alone as it is for him to be sur
rounded by perfervid life. The his
tory of the race, the inquiries of in
vestigators and the judgment of spe-
cialists in the disease of mind and
body tell us that the well tempered
life, void of eXcesses, is the plane
upon which men and women best en-
dure in mental and bodily health; a
temperance of action in an environ
ment in which the individual Is neither
submerged by human society nor de
tached from it.

PractIclnq Courtesy.

Shall courtesy be done only to the
rich, or by the rich?' asks Carlyle
In good breeding which gracefully re
members the rights of others, rather
than insists upon its own rights,
discern no special connection with
wealth or birth, but rather that 1t lies
in human action itself and is due from
all men to all men" The precepts
of the old Jesuit colleges in France
teach that the greatest magnetism in
the world is civility. conforming TO the
humors and infirmities of others. Their
textbooks overflow with maxims full
of delicate perception, such as coun'
sci not to express Joy in any pros
perity on your own part, before those
who are i'll or in trouble.

Most Valuable Metal.

In estimating the value of any metal
we are apt to consider only the in
trinsic money value of given guam
tity, and from this view gold is gen
orally regarded as the most valuable
metal. But this is a mistaken notion
Value consists not merely in pound
for pound money worth, but ought to
include full consideration of service
ability and usefulness. Taking these
into account, scientific writer points
out that iron is the most valuable
metal, because of the many different
ways in which it is of great service to
man. In this respect 1t is of the great.
est value. and the world is fortunate in
the great amount of it available.

Banks of Bisbee
 and of Douglas
 Make Vast Gain

Banks are the business barometer of a community. By the increase or the decrease of resources and of de- posits is clearly shown the relative degree of business prosperity So it is in the Warren District and Douglas.
 The Warren Mining District and Douglas are closely connected by tho same or similar industries, by mutual business interests that spring from the same sources. The same Financial barometer registers tho financial and business conditions of both cities. In the past year there has been remark. able clearing of conditions. a truly wonderful recovery and gain in bank. ing resources
 Marvellous Gains Made.
 From October 31, 1914. to September 2, 1915. a period of less than II months, the resources of the four banks of the Warren District showed gain of s74O,5O8, nearly go per cent The six banks of this district and Douglas registered a gain in resources amounting to S1225.9f7 or over 2g per cent

 In those ten months the Bank of Bisbee gained in resources S4S6,9l1 and in deposits S4S1,3S1. The Miners and Merchants Bank increased it's re- sources from March 4, 1915 to Septem- Der 2, 1915, in six months $25S, ,45O, and it's deposits $213,S5G. The Citizens Bank and Trust Company resources grew $16,O93 in the same period and it's deposits $1O,24O The Bank of Low ell gained S26,727 in resources in that period and S23, POP in deposits.
