BILLS IN TROUBLE
I've got a letter parson, from my son
away out West,
And my ole heart is as heavy as an
anvil In my breast.
To think the boy whose future 1 had
once SO nicely planned
Should wander from the path of right
and come to such an end.
1 TOT him when he left us, only three
short years ago,
He'd find himself a-plowinE in a
mighty crooked row.
He's missed his fathers counsel and
his mothers prayers too.
But he said the farm was hateful and
he guessed he'd have to go.
l know there's big temptations for a
youngster, in the West.
But believed our Billy had the cour-
age to resist,
An when he left 1 warned him of the
ever waiting snares
That lie like hidden serpents In lifes
pathways everywhere's.
But Bill he promised faithful to be
careful and allowed
That he would build up a reputation
That would make us mighty proud.
But 1t seems as how my counsel sort
of faded from his mind,
And now he's got in trouble of the very
worstest kind
His letters came so seldom that 1
somehow sort of knowed,
That Billy was a tramping on a mighty
rocky road.
But never once imagined he would bow
my head in shame
And in the dust he'd waller his ole
daddy's honored name.
He writes from out in Denver. and the
storys mighty short;
I Jest can't tell his mother-itn break
her poor ole hearti
An so / reckoned, parson. you might
break the news to her
Bits in the Legislature, but he doesn't
say what fur.

WARNS OF CARBON
MONOXIDE HAZARD
Interior Department Advises Motor
lists in Closed Garages to Guard
Against Fumes.

Motorists were warned today by the
Interior Department to take particu-
lar care to guard against the hazard
of carbon monoxide fumes In closed
garages, resulting from the operation
of an automobile engine.
Less than half of one per cent OF
carbon monoxide will kill an ordinary
man in an hour and a higher con-
centration will prove fatal in short
er time.
1t is a common practice, the depart
ment said, for motorists to allow the
engine to idle for five or ten minutes
on cold days, to warm up the oil ana
water This is an extremely danger
GUS practice, engineers pointed out
and cases are reported frequently
where the driver is found dead at
the wheel. If 1t Is desired to warm
up the engine. all windows and doors
should be opened or the car should
be driven into the open air where
the exhaust gases are quickly dissi-
pated.

Say Stars Presage Fate.

Breton seamen have great belief in
the stars and disconsolate indeed Is
he who sees in the heavens at night
just one star. 1t is to him 1.-The lone
star" presaging his passing on. The
Persians have belief that all the un-
numbered stars are the ghosts of men
and the Australian bush men have a
saying that Good men become stars"
which is akin to the Teutonic saying
that stars are souls, and when a
child dies God makes a new star"
