turns" Having the only auto al
in the Gallatin valley, Mr.. Smith is
the man most frequently called upon
by garage owners and car drivers to
| extricate cars that have become stuck
in the mud, overturned in the road
or fallen into the ditch or creek. Only
last week, following the heavy snow
storm, Mr.. Smith and his trusty
crane were called upon to eXtricate
Sheriff jim Smith out of a mud hole
on n of the less travelled county
roads. This was some feat for Har-
lev. for the sheriff has the reputation
of being able to eXtricate himself
from the tightest kind Of places
Several days ago, while the mud on
the Bozeman-LivingstOn hill was
softening under the influence of
mid-spring sun, and possessed an ad-
h-esiveness somewhat akin to a mix
ture of glue and gutta percha, Mr.
Smith and his crane, which ne al
f~ectionately calls his "hister," sue
ceeded in getting a tourists car ou'
of a bad place on the road after onl!
25 minutes of work and after foul
cars had failed, with their combined
pulling power, to extricate even tn
front wheels of the maroOned car
When Mr.. Smith presented his bi
of only $40 to the tourist, he sax
that was the cheapest similar ex
perience he had ever enjoyed. ID

sh;nment OF Silk Loaded

Experts in such matters assure US
that silk that comes from abroad
sometimes has a surprising way oil
changing weight. 1t Is interesting
to consider one consignment that
came from Japan. A leading chemi-
cal expert vouches for the truth of
the figures and, for the sake of
simplicity. takes one pound as the
standard in describing the change.
1t must be remembered that what
was true of the one pound was true
of the whole consignment.
The raw silk weighed 16 ounces to
the pound when 1t arrived. After II
was washed and dried 1t weighed IL
ounces. 1.-THE willy Japanese!" one
naturally exclaims; but wait.
The 12-ounce pound was passed
through bath of bichloride OF tin
and then through a bath of sodium
phosphate. These baths were re-
peated alternately number OF
times, and then the silk was placed
in a bath Of aluminium sulphate.
Back Ii went to the tin and phos-
phate baths and the swollen fibres
were changed with more loading.
Then it was treated to a bath of sill
cate of sodium. After that 1t was
dyed a rich black with logwood.
which added q little more weight.
Finally it was oiled in order to give
II luster.
The result was &c ounces Of beauti-
full black "silk." Of which IL ounces
were real silk and 81 ounces were
loading.-Washingto Star.

Naxy's Pancake Ha. 70 Go

Although the details have not as
yet been worked out or in fact
agreed to, in ell probability there
will be some important changes in
the uniform for the enlisted men OF
the navy. 1t Is understood that
Secretary DENLY, as well as the high
er ranking officers in the Navy de-
partment. has taken an interest In
the subject. There is a general
agreement among the authorities
that there should be some changes
in the regulations as well as in the
cut of the uniform of the navy en-
listed personnel. \ change in the
petty officers first-class uniform has
now been practically approved.
AS for the bluejackets. there is a
diversity of opinions even among
those who are urging change
There is considerable support for a
proposition to give the bluejacket q
different and dressier uniform to be
worn while on duty or on leave
ashore. A uniform for the blue jack
cts with 4 cap like a commissary
steward with long trousers and O
double breasted coat is being we'll re-
ceived. This uniform would have
gun metal buttons and would be
worn with n white shirt. The cut
of the trousers would approach that
of the civilian.
Every recommendation or letter
that has been received in the Navy
department is adverse to the presen,
fiat hat for blueiackets. There is nc
doubt that 1t will go and the enlisted
men will be given q new cap.-Army

Count Robert Zedlitx-Truetxschier.
his former court marshal, which are
today being read with unusual inter-
est In Holland. The Count says the
former emperor was 30 suspicious OF
England at all times. and so uneasy
about English public opinion. that he
insisted upon reading personally all
communications addressed to him
from England.
Letters of Englishmen frequently
put him into a terrible, rage. One
such communication received In 1908
angered him especially. An English
man. whose name the writer of the
memoirs withholds. wrote: II advise
you to give. up trying 10 be the head
of a nation of 60,00o.000 people. Be-
come the head Of q football team. or

him: do not think there is any other
motive than vanity for my sons ac-
TONS"
In February. 1909. the former court
marshal wrote this about the then
emperor: 1.-THE emperor more and
more gets out Of the habit OF regular
work. He gets up late. has breakfast
at nine and then only with great ais
pleasure listens to what his ministers
tell him He has lunch at one. and
then rides in his carriage at two. Az
ter this he has tea. Then he sleeps
and has a little time before dinner Tor

May one compare 1t with what his
tortans say?'

Simplicity Has It's Charm

or all the varied elements OF
human life simplicity is perhaps the
one that charms us most deeply and
permanently. There is simplicity in
thought. We like people to say what
they mean. or, il they mean nothing,
then to keep still, not wrap up
nonentity in cloudy grandiloquence,
which wearies ears and minds both.
There is simplicity in art. The
elaborate has it's place. large de-
yelopments of phrase and color and
ornament, magnifcence and NUM-
ficence. But what pleases us and
holds us most and longest is the
quiet, simple touch that comes from
the heart and goes to it.
There is simplicity in life. Most
of us are always seeking complica-
tons. wealth. luxury. remote and
subtle pleasures. which allure us and
elude us and deceive us. But when
we are young we are happy with
simple things, and when We grow
old--and wise-we are likely to turn
to simple things once more and to
find that they content us.
There is simplicity in, character.
and it is needless to point out the
finite comfort and security.
The truth is that highly civilized,
analytical, sophisticated spirits can
not easily maintain simplicity. They
may worship 1t, but they can hardly
achieve it, or reachieve 1t, in its
exquisite white innocence and its
adorable charm. But with a rea-
sonable effort they can at least keep
before them the ideal of eschewing
the artificial, the elaborate, the
pretentious. and of seeking. so far as
possible, directness and lucidity of
thought and the plain, substantial
satisfying, permanent interests of
life.-Youth's Companion.

SnOwpl0ws Busy
in Wake of Storm

Snowplows were busy again YES
terday clearing away the results of
the storm during Saturday night.
Although not nearly as much snow
fell as during the first storm, the
wind had piled up drifts during the
night and 1t was necessary to clear
the Sidewalks. Saturday was the
coolest day Of the winter thus fsr.
with the thermometer but little
above zero and the cold auementcd
by an Icy north wind. Rail traffic
was serious delayed, the Saturday
afternoon express from oston
bound toward Bangor being over
two hours late. The train due in
Waterville from Boston at S.15 from
l;oston, Saturday night, did not ar-
rive until about II O'Clock. While
the storm did not strike Wat~rville
nj all Saturday excepting for oc-
casional flurries. people coming from
the west reported fine driving
snow falling along the coast. En-
gineerS had much difficulty with
steam pressure on account of he
high wind coupled with The zero
temperature
Local traffic was not much dis
turbed as the snow did not come
until after the electric cars had
stopped running and plows were
quickly put on to clear it away be-
fore the first car in the morning.
Very few autoists ventured 10
yond the city limits excepting the
cars equipped with runners and
caterpillar tread. Although the
skating was excellent. the local mo-
1on picture theaters were much
more popular Saturday evening tran
the skating Kinks.

Elga. famous police dog Of Weimar
which has become known throughout
the German republic for her ability
to track criminals. has just furnished
evidence in . murder Of which Oscar
NIGHT. of Dittersbach, Bohemia, was
suspected.
NIGHT. In prison here for theft. has
been suspected of two murders In
Bohemia, although courts were UNI
willing to accept the evidence against

A year and a half ago an innkeeper
in little Bohemian town was killed
and the hat of the. murderer was
found at the scene Of the crime.
NIGHT crossed into Bavaria after the
crime. The Czechoslovakian police
officials believed him guilty and have

His Ears in Dancer

Hanging or cutting off the ear of
the accused and deporting him to the
penal colony of Australia are the only
penalties for the offense of which
Angus Mcdonald of Winnipeg, Can
ada, stands accused.
Mcdonald took COW from the pub
lie pound. despite the protests of the
poundkeeper, and led her back to his
herd, from which she had strayed.
A charge of pound breach was laid
before the courts. When the evidence
had been presented and verdict
reached. it was found that the Cana
dian criminal code applied no penalty
for pound breach. Reference was
made to the English common law.
An enactment of more than $50
years ago, it was found. provides
that the criminal guilty of such an
offense shall be executed or have his
cars removed and be deported to the
penal colony OF Australia,-Cappe
