True Good Nature.

Good nature does not mean easy,
happy go-lucky or to loaf when the
employer is away, and a squirt when
he is present. A grouchy spirit on the
part of the employees, a feeling that
they do not want to do any more than
is absolutely necessary, has doubtless
forced many an institution to the wall.
and this indolent spirit usually exists
among employees where the boss man
is too exacting and overbearing. Good
service comes from a desire to do the
right thing, whether the owner of the
business be present or thousands Of
miles away. The man who is real
cheerful and good natured is one Of
the noblest works of Gods CREATION
Pennsylvania Grit.

at the latter site few modern huts

Lake Maracaibo is surrounded by a
coastal plain extremely dry in the

thorny shrubs, but humid in the south
and clothed in heavy forest, The
sierras rise abruptly from the edge OF
this plain and to great heights. From
the southern end of the lake the Andes

deep gorges and climb lofty ridges

The transitions from one type of en-.

All Traffic by Canoe.
There is a tide of perhaps two feet

step from the wobbly dugout upon lad

crumbs that fall.
Freedom from the insect life that
makes the shores unbearable may ac-
count for the custom of building
houses out over the water. But it is an
interesting fact that these lake dwell

plain well back from the thicket-cov-

stretch sparsely covered with acacias
and other desert shrubs. The most con-
spicuous of these is the divi-divi from
the seeds of which a valuable dye and
tanning substance is extracted. The
houses in the desert are mere roofs

"Who is she?"
"Mrs. Barnabetta Burgoyne."
"She is the most beautiful woman
l have ever SEEM" pronounced Wayne
Blatchford, only humdrum law clerk
but artistic, temperamentally poetic
and, therefore, susceptible to strong
impressions.
He had paused in n casual stroll
through the little inland city of Wal
than to observe the occupant of
modest but expensive automobile. The
car was standing at the curb, its
chauffeur evidently having been sent
on some mission 10 one of the stores
on this, the principal street of the
town. A young lady sat in some
what rigid pose, her face statuesque In
its classic beauty. What struck
Blatchford was that, while to ordinary
eyes, this superb figure would have
suggested the cold hauteur Of an aris-
tocrat, seeking the depths of her eyes
he noted Il hidden trace of sadness,
subtle, ineffable.
More than that, he discovered that
while humble passers-by bowed to her
with infinite respect. those in passing
automobiles of higher social prestige
either greeted her not at all or with n
scant civility, and the lips of the peer
less creature fluttered TREMENDOUSLY at
the fact, as though she felt deeply the
contempt, or obloquy, expressed.
Then the chauffeur returned and the
automobile sped away, leaving Batch
ford like one in a passing trance. He
aroused himself with an effort.
"Burgoyne" he repeated vaguely.
"Where have l heard that name be-
fore? Ali l fancy an old historical
"reminiscences"
Wayne Blatchford did not meet the
young lady again during the next two
days, but he did not forget her. Then
his interest In her was revived by q
strange circumstance. He was stroll
ing through the beautiful cemetery at
the edge of the city one afternoon,
when he observed a high, massive
shaft bearing the name "Burgoyne."
The Oakley herald. [volume] (Oakley, Idaho) 1908-1961, 1917-04-27

Again it suggested something he had
forgotten, but the similitude once more
escaped him.
The imposing shaft bore a lengthy
legend 1t detailed the services to
his country and to his city of William
Burgoyne, ranking brigadier in the
army and mayor of Waltham. 1t ex-
panded on his integrity and public and
private charities.
Then, aroused TO sheer amazement,
Blatchford traced brief and obscure
legend upon a low, fiat slab of marble
placed at the remote edge of the same
burial lot, for 1t read, "Williston, son
of William Burgoyne-Hushr -
He thrilled, and he knew not why.
The uncanny sensation that overcame
him was past analysis. Why the half
hidden tablet in the shadow of the
towering shaft? Why-"hush" 1t
WAS a warning, an appeal, a pitiful
call for human charity. Why?
Involuntarily, Wayne Blatchford re-
moved his hat and stood with head
bowed. His impressive nature re-
sponded TO this fairly emotional pre-
sentiment. The stone hid-what?-
secret?-a mystery "a direful faint?
And what might it not have to do with
the bereaved daughter of William Bur-
goyne!
"Williston-ah clue, vital sug-
gestion. The names in conjunction
stirred up memory to new effort.
Now he knew where he had seen that
name before. His thoughts went
cropping to rest upon a clear central
fact. Then a rustling sound In the
grass behind him caused him to turn
quickly, and he could not restrain a
quick gasp, for, viewing him wonder
ingly, was Miss Barnabetta Burgoyne.
In the near distance was her auto
mobile, In her hands she bore some
flowers. Evidently her mission was
to do homage to the dead. Blatchford
drew aside almost guiltily, as though
he were committing a dissertation, for

light, etc., they are going to make
profit at the end Of a certain period.
"At the end of that time, l find that
many of them are no better off than
when they started. l have been able
to discover, through my experience in
managing books for large concerns,
that one reason for their miscalcula-
ton Is that they do not charge enough
for their own services at correct

basis Of cost before making out the
selling price of goods.

to note that bandoleers and belts made
of long strings Of beads are now worn
under these generous garments. Tat

the face is ordinarily painted with a
large circle upon each cheek connected

y T is Is a time-honored story that
relates the origin of the name
Venezuela and one more to be
credited than the majority of
place name anecdotes. When Alon-
20 de Ojeda, accompanied by the
llustrious geographer, Amerigo Yes
pucci, entered the Gulf of Mara
caibo In 1899 he found villages
raised on piles above the water.
From this circumstance he gave
the name Gulf Of Venice" to the shall
low sea inclosed between the arid pen
lnsulas Of Goajira and Parajuana.
Those were days of f1owery speech and
fervid imagination the comparison be-
tween Venice the Magnificent and the
homes of humble fishing Indians in the
new world struck the popular fancy
and soon the whole land was known as
Venezuela-Little Venice. The surviv-
Ing pile-built villages north of the city
of Maracaibo are still of great inter-

eler with an eye for the picturesque.

LEVY CITIZENS 10
 INCORPORATE TOWN
PETITION FILED WITH couN- " CLERK IS TO BE HEARD ON THE 26TH DAY
 OF MARCH.
tCopyright.)

March 26 has been set by County Judge Lee Miles as the date for hear ing the petition of w. F. Stanley and 27 others for the incorporation of the town of Levy The petition was filed last week with County Clerk Dan D.. Quinn, as a counter move on the part of the citizens, against the efforts of the Argenta city council to bring about annexation.
 Recently the Argenta City Council instituted a move for the annexation of Levy, providing for 8 vote on the question April 5. Should the town be incorporated, petitioners say the move will be made more difficult, un- der state law which requires a major ity vote in the municipality to be an- nexed. It is said a large majority of the residents of Levy oppose annex ation to Argenta on the ground of increased taxation which they believe would result.
 Virtually 360 acres is embraced Il the plat submitted with the petition for incorporation.
 Despite the fact that residents If Levy. which territory is included in the annexation, have filed a petition for incorporation, the repeal measure includes Levy. In the western sec ton of the city practically all of the territory except the 39-acre tract of land known as Boone Memorial park, is omitted from the repeal meas ure. Certain territory in the western part of the city, which was included in the first ordinance, is omitted in the repeal ordinance.
