PAYING THE BILL

The Non-Partisan league in North
Dakota is fighting for its existence.
As with all socialistic theories
which seem so beautiful when the
agitator is explaining them, some
body must settle when the bill comes
in-and the people always pay.

But Many Decades Ago the "Antima-
cassar' Was a Part Of Every
,-.~2 WeII-ReQuIated Home.


Did you ever come across the word
"antimacassar?'' If you are from
New England you surely have met it,
for New England is it's home. The
word means IAN ornamental covering
thrown over chairs, sofas, etc., to pre-
vent their being soiled by the hair"
Its derivation dates back to the ro-
nance of the days when American
clipper ships ranged all over the sew
en- seas and their bywaters.
The hardy shippers of those days
used to bring home substance pro-
duced on the island Of Celebes, in the
eastern archipelago, named macassar
oil, from the place where it was OBJ
tanned. There was a belief in those
days that this oil tended to retard or
prevent badness. So it was used In
plentiful quantities by beaux and
near-beaux.
But the oil worked havoc with the
parts Of chairs and sofas wherein
the aforesaid beaux reposed their
shiney heads. So the New England
housewives, as preventive, devised
the antimacassar (see the Latin IAN
IT," against). Thrifty ladies, weren't
they-and neat beyond cavil !-Chica-

Five-year-old Mary Ellen likes the

she goes over to visit the nurses they

new babies there. But recently her
visits have been fewer than usual as
her next-door neighbor has a small
incubator which, has been Matching

Ellen has been watching him take

But a few days back Mary Ellen

she looked at 1t and then she said to
one of the worknen, "They always

Drink Plenty Of Water.

Are you taking at least eight glass
es of water a day? It is food and
medicine It is more necessary to
drink at least this amount than to
comb your hair or wash your face. If
our bodies did not have an enormous
capacity for taking punishment the
terrible perils we daily subject our
selves to If we do not drink enough
water would be understood by every
man, woman and child.
1t can be figured out, mathematical
~ almost, that the lungs give off what
amounts to more than two glasses OF
water q day. The skin gives off that
much, or a good deal more; while the
kidneys are subject to all sorts Of irri-
tations, followed by disease, when the
fluids Of the body are too heavy with
the wastes and breakdown from every
one of the billions of body cells. Co.
pious water drinking dilutes these
wastes Chicago Tribune.

The desire to learn what become Of
birds that flew south with the approach
Of cold weather led Audubon, the great
American naturalist, to place silver
threads about the legs of brood Of
phoebes. The following spring he was
rewarded by having two of the birds
return to nest near the haunts where
they learned to fly.
This occurred early in the Nine
teenth century, and was the first
known case in America of bird band
ing Since that time this means Of
securing information on the move

birds has been used by many societies,

south bearing a narrow ring, stamped
with a number, about one Of its legs.
Salt and le6.
Mixing pounded Ice and salt has
the effect Of producing what is called
q freezing mixture. The mixture has
q tendency to become brine, the ice
melting and the salt dissolving in the
water formed. To melt, however, it
must absorb heat and this is taken
from bodies with which it is in con-
tact, such as wafer, cream, etc. In
this way il @an% he made.

DISASTER COMES WITH RAIN

I had never been able to figure out ex.
~actly what was meant by the pass
age in the Bible that reads: ''How can
we make bricks, for we have no more
straw?"
But when saw the Algerians make
bricks by incasing short straws In the
mud Of the fields, patting the bricks
into shape, and drying them in the
sun, the mystery was explained. And
then one day when it rained Won
dered why they ever did 1t.
Fortunately it seldom rains In Al
geria, but that day it rained as !
never saw 1t rain before or since. The
very heavens seemed to open and the
celestial reservoir to empty itself with

HEARING ON DAIRY
TARIFF POSTPONED
Pressure of Tax Measure Interferes
With Meeting Before Senate
Committee, Says Cady

The hearing on the dairy tariff sched-
uled for Monday before the Senate
Finance committee in Washington was
not held states W N. Cady president
of the New England Dairy Tariff com
mittee, who arrived home from the
capital yesterday morning.
Mr.. Cady says that the Senate has
been so busy for the past few weeks
on the tax measures, that the tariit
hearings before the committees got be-
hind the schedule. 1t is probable, how
ever, that the hearing will take place
early next week, possibly on Tuesday,
when it is expected that the New
England delegates will be present. Mr.
Cadv does not expect to be able to go
to Washington at that time, but Yer
mont will be represented by Mark
Moody, of Waterbury, and James A.
Leach, of Pawlet. The Dairy Tariff
committee is endeavoring to protect
the milk producer with an equalized
tariff an dairy products.
