Suspended Animation.

Insects which spend most Of their
lives in a torpid or semi-tOrpid con-
ditiOn are seldom injured and never
killed by being frozen. There are
numerous instances of travellers in
mountain regions having found bee
ties aud butterflies above the snow
line which were stiff, frozen and APP
parently dead. When carried down to
the warmer air in the valley. however.
they revived in a very short time.

No wonder Dodge City grows.
How's this: Dodge City has been
working a scheme this summer that
other towns should take pattern after.
This town has constructed 127 new
houses, which has given homes to the
people and added to the population of
the town. These homes were built by
the lumber companies and sold to the
people. This plan should be followed
here. There are families here who
are living any old way who would own
home if it could be had on the in
stallment plan"

TRANS as though he would wrest
them from them, but the harder he
blew the more closely the cloaks
were fastened.
Then came the turn Of the sun.
At first he beamed gently upon the

A new addition to the nursery
equipment purchased by the Wo-

electrically warmed dressing cab

has a wide slab at the top %Hpon
which babies can be placed in put.

Beneath the dressing slab are
three compartments which can
