I'd ike to live in Iceland,
They have no telephones; oh.noa
The gossips do not have cnance
To rattle old dry bones
I'd like to live in Iceland,
They have no taxis there;
A man might save a buck or so,
And have some change to spare.
I'd like to live in Iceland,
No sewing circles meet
To chew the cud of scandal there,
OF scandal that is sweet.
I'd like to live in Iceland.
They do not pay cent
For ice or gas or coal or coke
Or groceries or rent.
They burn whale blubber. eat it too,
High cost of living's nil
I'd like to live in Iceland,
And never get bill.
Real Cooking.
Ny NAV she cooked no table dotes
or ally carts or such,
And when it came to THROWN style,
she wasn't very much.
There wasn't no French names hooked
onto vittles she would cook,
She got 'em from experience, not from
furrin' book.
She didn't have no casseroles like they
Or other heightened rig-ma-Jigs and
she put on no frills.
She had an old-time cook stove and
some kittles, that was all,
But she could cook the biscuits, that,
by jing, would never fall.
Her pie crust gosh, 'twould simply
melt right in feller's mouth,
Her Johnny cake seemed like it came
right from the sunny south;
Her crullerS made a Teller sit right
up and call for more.
Her bread was one thing upon which
she set lot of store.
No, friends, she wasn't very long on
what they now call style.
But she could surely cook the stuff
that made a Teller smile.
There wasn't no dyspepsy round our
place, or equity feet.
For she cooked up the kind of food
that's really meant to eat.

James Rogantini came into Eureka
Tuesday with the head of a coyote
he killed early the previous morning
in the blacksmith shop at his ranch
at Pinto Creek, about Is miles east
of Eureka. 1t was just breaking day
when he heard his four dogs fighting
outside the kitchen door, and upon
investigating found the dogs fighting
a coyote. By the time he had Sc
cured his shotgun the animal had
broken away from the dogs and taken
refuge in the blacksmith shop. and
it was with some difficulty that he
succeeded in locating and killing the
coyote. Two of the dogs were found
to have been badly bitten and were
killed. Another dog that showed no
signs of being bitten was locked up,
while the fourth dog struck out and
could not be captured.
Mr.. Rogantini believes the coyote
was rabid and had Sheriff James
Mackey send the head of the animal
to the University of Nevada for ex-
animation.

WASHINGTON, April i0.-One
