Pillow Case Sales Expand.

Business In pillow cases and sheets
continues to improve. according to manu-
facturers. Buyers are ordering In small
quantities. but they are buying more
often. An encouraging volume of busi-I
ness Is being booked by salesmen on the
road. They report that they are being
forced to call upon retailers more fire.
quently because Of the caution which
the merchants are exercising in placing
orders This is taken as an indication
OF light stocks and manufacturers an
ticipate a hurried call for merchandise
for immediate delivery as soon as
sizable consumer demand develops. Re-
suits Of statesmen covering Western ter
ritory are said to be more favorable
than those Of Eastern statesmen because
of the strikes in the latter district.
Prices SO far show little change. but a
large producer expects higher quotations
on pillow cases and sheets in the near
future. because of the higher raw mate
rial costs.

WINCHESTER, Va. July 1.-The
belled buzzard seen flying over the
western section Of Frederick county

gions. being none other than "Old
Bachelor Bill de Buzz" and his real
fome is In the mountains of Hamp-
shire county. w. Va. He simply was
over in "old" Virginia on a visit
when his bell excited interest
This buzzard has been called a
bachelor for many years. because he
rarely goes out in company, and his
home is said to be a nest he actually
stole from ether buzzards when he
was in his prime. Those who know
him say he never makes up" his bed
and that he must be a bachelor.
B:ll once was owned by Andrew
Jackson Parker. a mountain farmer,
whose home was in a wild section
known as "The Cove" a short walk
from "Caudy's Castle" where the an

loose, expecting to see 1t follow Its
natural bent and fly away. probably
never to be seen there again. But 1t
was not TO be. Only a few days
elapsed and the buzzard was back
again. He had been so well treated
by the Parkers that he evidently de-
cided he would live with them. Occa-
sionally other buzzards would fly over
the mountainside scouting for their
daily bread, but the Parker buzzard,
very much contented with his sur
roundings. made no advances toward
them. He rarely was attacked. the
tinkiing of his bell probably being
calculated to frighten or alarm others
OF his kind. He had his meals regu-
larly at the Parker home. SO there
was no need of his going on a hunt
for grub. and in time the buzzard be-
came very much dome mesticated.
