GAS USED TO FOIL THIEVES
Really Ingenious Contrivsnce That
Will Not Be Appreciated by
the "Cracksmen."

Some of our property losses have
resulted from the inroads of cracks
men who succeeded in getting into n
number of our vaults and safes.
Recently an inventive fellow with
a knowledge of deadly gases decided
to capitalize his understanding of pot
sen gases, so he perfected a fragile
glass container that is now being em-
ployed to protect all kinds of deposi-
tories from thieves. Any movement
Of the door TO which the gas container
is attached, or any unusual jar, such
as would result from an explosion,
breaks the container and releases the
fluid, which kills the burglars Instant
ly. Any effort 10 remove the vial by
drilling II from the door likewise re
leases the gas.
Ii would be a grand thing, from the
standpoint of safeguarding property,
II some OF these gas containers could
be attached TO many other kinds OF
private possessions; but such sug'
gestlon would likely be inconsistent
with my present effort TO set down
ways TO conserve life.-Floyd w. Par
sons in the Saturday Evening Post.

Poitiers' Powder Puffs.

Poitiers was famous In days gone
by for the great victory over the
French when the Black Prince took
King John Of France prisoner, and
waited on him as his guest. But Fol

feathers Of any species, and their
skins are readily transmitted into

age Of these birds that powder puffs
are made. The whlteness OF the feath.

LACK THE "WILL TO LlVE''
Cree Tribe of Canadian Indians Will
Soon Have Disappeared From

The Cree Indians are wards OF the
Canadian government. When Canada
took their country she became rcspon-
slble for their future. In particular,
she pays each one yearly So in cash

But they are dying cut They have
mot the will to live" In certain
district within recent times there were
10000 Indians. To-Day there are 5000.
They drink tea to excess. They smoke
tobacco to excess. The women and
the little children smoke. Some are
tubercular. And they keep dying.
They nre honest and good natured,
but their moral fiber has weakened.
They loaf aud slouch around the posts
and have the mentality of emotional
children and their delicate, weathered
faces will soon be but memory,

FAD A MIGHT OF TROUBLE
Story Told In Chicago Newspaper viii
81 Declared Libel by tho
Loyal Scot.

A Scottish laird and his servant,
Sandy, were on their way home on
horseback late at night. Both had been
partaking literally of a spirit which EN-
Joys a certain measure OF popularity in
their country. At ford where the
bank was steep the laird fell bend-first
into the creek. He scrambled up and
shouted to his servant:
Hold on, Sandy Something fell OF
Il heard 1t splash |"
Sandy climbed down from the saddle
and waded about blindly in the shall
low water. At last he seized on the
laird.
"Why, It's yerself, mont!
mo, Sandy" the master declared,
stoutly. ut can't be me-here / am"
Then he added "But If it is me get me
back on the horsc.'
Sandy helped the laird to the horse
and hoisted him IN. In the dark the
rider was faced the wrong way round.
"Gie me the reins," the master or
dered.
Sandy felt about the horses rump,
ard then cried out, clutching the tail:
ut waur the horses head as fell Off
nothin's left but the name !"
"Gie me the name, then" the lairG
directed stolldly.
SO presently, when he had the tail
g,asped firmly In both hands and Sandy
had mounted, the procession began to
move. Whereat the laird shouted In
dismay "Haud on, Sandy It's gaeln'
