to advantage her gift for a certain
delicate form OF comedy. At her fare

little tune, which with a Russian song,

well to display Foret's versatility.
Unfortunately only handful OF
people were at the Opera house, there
being q number of competing attrac
lions in the city last evening, but

BONUS FOR WIDE TIRES.
Farmers Entitled to Rebate of One.
Fourth on Road Taxes.

Des Moines, Aug. Enquiry was
made at the attorney generals Office
this morning as to whether or not a
farmer was entitled to rebate in his
highway taxes if he used wide tired
wagons in hauling heavy loads. The
state legal department replied that
such was the law. 1t is believed,
however, that although this has been
on the statute books for some time,
it has been quite generally overlook
ed both by the farmers and them
selves and the officials in charge of
tax collection.
The law provides that all persons
who use wagons on the public high
ways with tires over three inches
wide in hauling heavy loads of more
than 500 pounds are entitled to re-
bate of one-fourth of that highway
tax. In order to take advantage of
this law an affidavit must be made
by the person entitled to the rebate
to the effect that he has met the re-
quirements of the law in this respect.
He is then entitled to his rebate.

YOUNG MAN AND PUNCH.
It Is Not What You Feel But What
the Man Who "kicks in" Wants
You to Put into it.

Once upon time, in large city
there lived young man who at
tempted to earn a living by writing
saleable plays and selling them to
producers. His attempts were un-
successful. He scribbled merry far
ces that convulsed his friends when
they heard them read; he wrote tre-
mendous melodramas that caused
them to quiver with excitement, and
he wrote beautiful PASTORAL dramas
that made the readers mouth water
for country sausage and hickory
smoked ham, but somehow the pro-
ducers could not be prevailed upon
to scribbled merry farces that con-
vulsed accept any of them. They
lack punch" was their criticism.
AS the days went by our friends
finances worked themselves into an
embarrassing state. The landlady be-
gan to demand money or room" and
his friends declined to be touched an
other to ch. Other creditors were
putting his accounts in the hands of
collection agencies. And still none of
his work had developed the much
sought-for punch And then the
big idea came to him. He took a shop
worn setting, created hero and a
heroine, both married but not to each
other, and worked in several scenes
where the leading woman appeared
in her "nightie." By way of a
punch" he introduced some lengthy
discussions of subjects that no faith
er would think of discussing in the
presence of his family. The author
called it Problem Play" The pro-
ducers were delighted and the roy
alties made him wealthy.
MORAL-"Punch" is not what you
feel, but what the man who kicks
in wants you to put into it.
