camping courtssy.

Good camping grounds should be the
special property Of sportsmen and low
ers of the woods, and It Is pity that
they should so often be desecrated by
the unappreciative. This Is the season
when the forest floor win be strewn
with tin cans and cracker boxes, when
the clean woods will be marred with
all sorts Of ugly rubbish, and when
the pleasure Of late campers will be
half destroyed by the vandalism OF
their predecessors. Great tracts Of for
est will be blackened by flames set
from little campfres. The growth OF
young timber will be checked. And
all the trouble could be banished II
only people would observe the few
simple rules Of the woodsi The forest
is the last refuge Of solitude amid
beauty; therefore do not make it's go
Guided glades into vulgar picnic
grounds. Noblesse oblige there as else
where, and though the after conner
may not know you he will know what
sort Of person you are by the condi-
t1on of the camping grounds you leave.

Bird Orpans.

The German peasants In the Harz
mountains teach their birds to sing
by a unique instrument known as a
bird organ. It consists Of two round
sheet iron cylinders, one inside Of the
other. The lower one contains water
The upper one is manipulated by
series Of small weights, and pulleys
which cause it to settle slowly down
ward, the air being expelled through
q whistle, which has several modifers
to give variety to its tones. When the
upper cylinder has come down the re
quired distance spring operates thu
weights that raise 1t again to repeat
the sound.

OF course macaroni can always be re-
heated, or used in croquettes, with other
things, but good way to change and
enlarge the supply of cold macaroni,
cooked with cheese, Is to open a can of
tomato and put with it. Cut the maca-
roni into short lengths. For the home
table 1t is not amiss, or for q school
ohild's quick luncheon, to add some cold
cooked rice, also. Season with salt and
pepper, and . little onion, or celery, If
liked. Southern people are very apt to
put boiled rice, by the spoonful, into
their stewed tomato, just as they like
rice with gumbo, and SO it is nice to
add 1t to the macaroni- and tomato.
Cold meat can be cut small and added,

PUNCH BOARDS FALL
 FUR ANCIENT GAME

Every little gamble has a method all it's own, but occasionally there is an old trick that can be worked in a new way.
 J. o. Phelps is alleged to have worked the old Louisiana lottery game on the punch board, with the result that trip to Superior Thursday net ted him a goodly amount of watches. guns and other articles of more or less value
 The punch board artist Is said to have taken a punch or two. given the prize numbers the once over and retired to his room. where he did some tall manipulating. He would latter return 10 the punch board. take a shot and do a sleight-o of hand with the number he punched and pull the winner out of his sleeve.
 q win" and away he'd go with neat bunch of stock.
 Breaking the bank was too slow game for Phelps, it Is alleged. and any way he wanted some ready cash. He drew Q few checks for small amounts Myers X Leiber. Arizona Cigar Store and the Phoenix Amusement company were selected as the goats. The Amuse- ment company bucked and a complaint sworn to by Joe Richards led to the arrest of Phelps yesterday by Officers McGrath and Strathy of the police force. Phelps is said to have registered at a local hotel under the name of l.. J. Sargent.
