For the most part the animals are
the idle rich of the circus. For years
they were all in that category doing
nothing but showing themselves to
the public and getting three square
meals day for doing it. Now Ring
ling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey
combined have put some OF their
jungle habitants to work
There are the camels, for instance
these shaggy sons OF the Sahara
have been taken in hand at the circus
winter quarters in Bridgeport, Conn,
and prepared for the mysteries Of the
rein and bride. 1t is said that no
broncho breaker ever worked harder
than did the trainers who accustomed
these ships of the desert" to the
strangeness of complete harness. Yet

the same manner. These strange
teams are not led nor are they piloted
by outriders. They are guided solely
by the reins and have become as
familiar with the gee" and "hawp

an old trick of pickpockets.
But the judge dismissed them,
after listening to the story told by
James Miller and oJhn Patterson.
They said taht after they had got
ten in the car they found it occu-
pied solely by whites, and so had got
en- out to wait for the next car.

rHE Major Isaac Sadler chapter,
d. A. r., believes in going
Il back to beginnings. They are
making long strides toward 3
memorial in honor of Thomas B.
Cunning of Nebraska territorial
fame, and the pioneers of that pc
riod. A liberty bond, $1,000 in
pledges and something more than
500 realized from their Washington
birthday ball at the Hotel Fontene1le
Monday evening, February\23, make
up a substantial fund for the pur-
pose. Mrs. William Archibald
Smith is chairman of the commit
tee having the memorial in charge.
The movement for the Cunning
memorial was instigated during her
term as. regent, and the chairman
ship of the work has been passed on
to her.
The memorial will probably take
definite form during the present
year, according to Mrs. Smith. The
court house square has been con-
sidered as 4 possible site, and .
foretain may be the decorative piece
which will commemorate the hardi-
hood and vision of the Nebraska
pioneers and their early leader.
Francis Burt of South Carolina
was our first territorial governor
appointed by President Franklin
Pierce. He died'on his 18th day in
this state and was succeeded by
Thomas B. Cunning of Michigan, the
secretary of state. 1t fell to Acting
Governor Cunning to call the first
legislature, which met in Omaha,
Neb., January 10, 1855. Under Mark
w. lizard, the second governor Of
Nebraska, Thomas Cunning again
became secretary of state. His
courageous spirit and astute mind
left their mark on Nebraska life.
In raising a memorial to- honor
Governor Cunning, the D. A. K. so.
ciety bears strongly in mind and
will include in some definite way,
the pioneers of the carly territorial
days, according to Mrs. Smith.

f1oW TO use beduty Spot.
When the quaint and pretty wom-
en- of colonial days put black court
plaster patches under their eyes,
they did not do it without a very
good reason.
OF course using patches" is like
using any other kind of makeup. If
you don't do it we'll and aren't
enough interested to learn how to
do it we'll, you might as we'll not
bother.
You can get tiny box Of patches
at any drug store. They are uni
form in shape or they are assorted.
Which you get Is a question of
preference. There are funny little
lizards and owls and things, but
they look somewhat affected on most
women. They are all right for the
theater, but it would be in much bet
ter taste to use square or round
patches for ordinary purposes.
Patches are very desirable for
evening wear. They aren't so good
for street wear.
You must be enough dressed up"
not to mind little fancy things like
patches, if they would look appro-
prihte.
