This is a Mothers day telegram"
This was discarded because it vas too
expensive. Special Mothers day
blanks were furnished, and the rest Of
the problem was solved by ~instructing
all messenger boys delivering such
messages to say to the recipient,
Madam, this is a Mothers day mes
sage" Telegraph officials hope even
this precaution will not be necessary in
a year or two.
Telegraph officials believe that the
business and social possibilities Of the
telegraph have only been tapped. They
believe there will be more new uses
and greater amplifications of the SER
vice. AS the night letter was inaugur-
ated in 1910 to supply a use for facil-
tiles at night, the day letter was start

Modern Cable Service.
The Western Union has also in
stalled notifications of cable service
which correspond closely to modifica-
tons in the land wire service. In
addition to the fast regular cables
there is the deferred half-rate service
sen along when the regular messages
do not keep the facilities busy. Then
there Is the cable service letter, based
On a 13-word rate, and the week end
letter service, which is based on a 25-
word basis. These messages are filed
at any time up to midnight Saturday
night for delivery in any part of the
world the following Monday morning.

TNHE soul of man is larger than the sky.
L Deeper than ocean or the abysmal dark

So, in the compass Of the single mind,
The seeds and pregnant forms In essence

From 'Macbeth.'
Is this a dagger which see before me.
The handle toward my hand? Come, let
me clutch thee!
I have thee not, and yet see thee still.
Art thou not, fatal vision sensible
To feeling as to sight, or art thou but
A dagger Of the mind, a false creation.
Proceeding from the heat oppressed brain?
see thee yet, in form as palpable
As this which now draw.
Thou marshalet me the way that was
going
And such an instrument was to use.
Mine eyes are made the fools O. the. other
senses,
Or else worth all the rest. see thee still.
And on thy blade and dudgeon gouts Of

Which was not 30 before. There's no such

puts forth
The tender leaves Of hope: tomor-
row blossoms
And bears his blushing honors thick
upon him;
The third day comes frost. kill
ing frost,
And-when he thinks, good easy
man, full surely
His greatness is a-ripening-nipeh his
root,
And then he falls. as do. have
ventured,
Like little wanton boys that swim
on bladders,
This many summers, in sea Of
glory,
But far beyond my depth: my high
blown pride
At length broke under me and now
has left me.
Weary and old with service. to the
mercy
OF rude stream that must forever
hide me.
Vain pomp and glory Of this world.
I hate We.
I feel my heart new opened; oh,
how wretched
Is that poor man that hangs on
princes favors!
There is, betwixt that smile we
would aspire to,
That sweet aspect Of princes and
their ruin,
More pangs and fears than wars or
women have,
And when he falls he falls like Lu-

A child recovering from an illness is

of mother or an attendant.
If the child is boy modelling in clay

making scrapbooks. Cut attractive pic

Never let a child who is recovering

That untidx Top Drawer.


Much is gained If, instead Of making
Innings or pads for the bureau draw
ers, the drawers themselves are made
dainty and ready for the receptacles
Of articles.
First give the inside as many coats
of white paint as are necessary to give
a clear white tone, and then coat Of
white enamel. This gives perfectly
smooth surface, which is fresher than
any other lining could be.
The drawers look neat and attrac-
tive, and when, cleaning is desired q
simple wiping with damp cloth pro-
duces perfect cleanliness.
The same idea could be carried out
with all shelves. cupboar1s and draw
ers in the house, whether for linen,
china or kitchen utensils. They are
more easily cared for than when ar
ranged with other covers. This proc
ess makes a good substitute for the
highly recommended glass shelves.

BECAUSE HE'S SICK
 WITT BE SENT TO PEN
County Officials Realize Man Accused Aiding COnvicts to Escape Can Re-
 ceive Best Treatment From State.

Francis Witt, resident of Shook, Mo-, and who was brought from that state several days ago by Deputy Sheriff J. L. McBurnett, was given a preliminary examination yesterday by Justice of the Peace c. c. Brewster, on a felony charge of being accessory to the escape of state convicts from the convict farm at Tucker, and was ordered held to the grand jury, in de- fult of bail in the sum of $500.
 It had been the general belief that because of his assistance in the whole sale escape of the convicts from the Tucker farm last month, Witt could be held only to answer to a misdemeanor. He is suffering with tuberculosis of the bones, however, and is crippled because of the inroads of that disease, hence the desire on the part of the authorities to send him to the state penitentiary farm rather than to the county farm, because he can receive the proper medical attention at the state farm. The authorities decided, as a result, to charge him formally with being accessory to the escape of prisoners from state penitentiary or farm, which is a felony, and convic- tion on this charge will mean that he will be sentenced to the state farm or lpenitentiary. .tA XH

 IS IN NEW HANDS

The A-Muse-U theatre, established about four years ago by o. c. Hauber, in West Second avenue, was sold yes terday by MT. Hauber to Thomas Smith and Lloyd Lawson, who will re- open the amusement house Saturday.
 The A-Muse-U has been closed for several weeks, during which time it has been repaired. repainted and re- furnished generally, making it now one of the most handsome and attrac- tive of the motion picture houses in the city. MT. Hauber recently estab- lished the Hauber theatre, and origin ally planned to operate both houses, but all his attention is needed at the Hauber, hence his willingness to sell. MT. Lawson, one of the new owners, has been operator for MT: Hauber about four years, and thus is in posi- ton to know what pictures are most popular with Pine Bluff motion pie ture fans.

 "He had driven only block when he grew dizzy.
 Everything is black he said to his wife, who was riding with him. Then he fell over. He died instantly.
 ''Dr. Harry Czarlinsky, coroner, said death was probably due to shock caused by cold water on 8 warm stomach.
 "Mr. Brady lived at Rockhill Manor one son, Luban J. Brady. of Chicago, survives.
 'Dr. Thomas F. Miller, superintend- ent of the General hospital, explained death probably was caused by the ef- feet of the cold water on the sympa- thetic nervous system.
 "'It is not advisable to drink cold water fast in hot weather Doctor Miller said. Cool water taken in slowly and moderately will not hurt the system.'
