Senator Skogmo. "One of the impcr-

S.qone Dull Facts.

Two friendly little neighbors, aged
respectively Az and years, recently
seated themselves on the curbstone
near my windows for religious dis
cussion. 1t seemed they had over
heard some grown-ups repeating a
recent prophecy of certain sect as to
the imminent end of the world and
were greatly exercised at the report.
The elder child, fair-haired skeptic
from a northern state, scornfully de-
clared that he didn't believe the story ;
but the swarthy, dark-eyed little Texan
solemnly asserted: "Yes, it's true;
know it's true; fob this mo'nin'
read it in NAH Bible" The midget
doesn't know one letter of the alpha.
bet from another, but he refuses to be
pinned down to vulgar facts when his
spirit wishes to soar. Are children
of the period brighter than their pred
ecessors? At his age I am sure
could not have fibbed with so solemn
and convincing an air.--Los Angeles

SENATOR SKOGMO INTRODUCES
HOME BUILDING BILL

A home building plan financed by
insurance companies is proposed in
a bill offered in the Senate by Senator
George B. Skogmo.
1t would permit insurance compan-
les to invest their surplus in home
building plans, but would require the
owner to have an insurance policy
large enough to cover against loss IN
case of death. The plan is one of the
most unique that has ever come before
the legislature. 1t has been worked
out in mathematical detail, showing
just how a home can be thus 1inanc-
ed by man with modest earning
power. The plan is designed to aid
the man in becoming home owner,
instead Of a renter.

Malignant Ghost.

Last Christmas, a house in Leeds
was visited by an amazing ghost.
A woman, returning home. went into
the kitchen to warm herself at the
fire. Suddenly she was startled to see
two long white arms emerge from the
flames. Nearer and nearer they came
until they gripped her arms above the
elbow.
The touch was like red hot iron, and
she fell fainting to the ground. Wher
she recovered she was surprised tt
find that there had been no fire in the
CRATE. She visited doctor, who ex
amined her arms and found distinct
signs of burns. This was afterward
corroborated by another doctor.-Lon
