HIGH COST
 OF LEGS BEATS
 THAT OF SHOES


 Chicago, Sept. 16.-The high cost of shoes fades into insignificance when compared to the high cost of legs.
 The attention of the National Safety Comedian association for the prevention of accidents-has just been brought to the case of a man who has spent s2,O0O for artificial legs during the last 39 years having worn out nine pairs of cork, willow and wooden legs during that time.
 Two score years ago Tom Cleary hopped a fast moving freight at Ithaca. When trade is slack Tom feeds the peanuts to the flocks of pigeons that for years have accepted his hospitality. Despite his handicaps and generosity, Tom has prospered. A few years ago he bought a new pair of legs, the latest type maue or fibre.
 Talk about the high price of shoesr' Tom says. ''Why have to pay s2OO for a pair of legs every few years and then pay for the shoes be- sides. And at that I don't do much walking"

 Another important link is the charge that live stock is assigned by allotment every day, and that none must exceed the amount assigned. The virtual control of 675 articles of food Is charged. If indictments are obtained the effect will be a hard blow to the persons opposing the kenyon-K endrick bill.

FIRST OF SERIES OF SILVER TEAS TUESDAY.

The first of the series of silver teas planned by the executive board of the Y. w. c. A. will be given at the home of Mrs. G. H. Dowell, in Warren, on Tuesday afternoon. While the chief aim of the plan is the wax ing fat of the treasury, it is hoped that the affairs may serve as a means of enlisting the interest of the women of the district to a greater degree in the work the association is doing.
 There are no formal invitations to be sent out to the teas. Every wom- an in the district who is sufficiently interested in the plan to give her personal endorsement is urged to be present. Many of the most prominent women in the district have signified their willing ness to open their homes and act as hostesses. It is probable that the silver teas will go on record as not only worth while but be given place among the most delightful events of the year.

FLYING CIRCUS
DISAPP0IN TMENT
Only Two Machines Arrive Although
Five or Six Were Scheduled to
Come.

Hundreds of people gathered at
the farm Of Mr.. John T. Woodford
near the city limits, Sunday morning,
to inspect the airplanes and witness
the advertised program. However,
only two machines came here and
gave only a short exhibition. Con-
siderable trouble was had in keeping
the crowd lined up to pass around the
machines and several times the avi-
ator in charge of the machines had
to caution the people about moving
parts, etc. One machine arrived
Saturday evening and another Sum
day about IL 20 and in the afternoon
one fight was made by the larger of
the planes and on this fight Miss
Susette Johnson was the passenger.
A vote of thanks is due Mr.. John
T. Woodford for permitting his farm
to. be used, as fences were pulled
down and large acreage of grass
land run over by hundreds of auto
mobiles and trampled by pepole.
Altogether the Flying Circus was
distinct disappointment to oul
people as a number of machines were
expected.
