THESE ARE REAL CHICKENS

There is young matron in town,
who is an ardent fancier Of chickens.
But this is her first experience in
raising them. Now she is so erthused
over the experience she IS kept busy
setting all her hens and is buying
all in the neighborhood With brood
ing inclination. She has already a
flock of chickens and the other day
after one of our cool showers few
of her pets got wet. With tender
care she gathered them together in
her living room and built good fire
to dry them out. Not satisfied with
this treatment she went so far as to
get her husbands flask from the pan
try and doped them up. In short
time the chickens were booty in
side and out and as vicious as rat ter
riers. Now the young matron wants
to know how soon the chickens will
begin to cut teeth

TO INTERIOR JOURNAL PATRONS
A recent ruling makes it next to
impossible to have the Interior Jour-
nal delivered by carrier in town. 1t
would be necessary to place one
cent stamp on each copy, which would
cost us s1.O4 year. This would be
only 46 cents less than we get for
the paper, which makes the margin
narrower, of course, than we can af-
ford. The |. J. can be had at the
postofiice. just as was the case be-
fore the city carrier was put on. We
trust that this change will not great
ly inconvenience our patrons and
that they will readily see why it is
made Each ruling made by the post
Office department makes it harder
and harder for the publisher, who it
seems, will eventually have to give
UP the ghost, if it is not stopped
somewhere. In justice to our splen-
did postmaster, Mr.. II. ]. McRoberts,
we want to make it plain that he had
nothing to do with the ruling. III he
had had we are confident that he
would have ruled in favor of his
home paper, for which he has always
shown the best of feeling.
To those at this distance it looks
like a case of foolhardiness that the
war tax should be taken off of social,
athletic and sporting clubs and plac-
ed on those who give checks and |
drafts over SIS, yet the Senate f.
nance committee has recommended |
this. S1O,OOO,OOO in taxes is to be |
raised from one or the other Of these |
sources, and it strikes us that the |
sports of the country are far more |
able to pay the bill than the average |
poor devil with bank account. Those |
who enjoy luxuriers should be made
to bear the burden of the tax to as
great an extent as possible while
real business men should be given as
light load as can be arranged.
