C~HICKEN.RANCH CHAPERON

County jail there as the Sheridan
County Jail has no adequate facilities
for housing female prisoners.
Altho her bond was for only the
nominal sum of $4,000 the erst-
while friends of Mig and his house
keeper resolutely refused to either
sign a bond or dig up the cash, and so
the woman was locked up, but not for
long. Mig who owns the 80 acre
chicken ranch" together with Peter
j. Stewart signed a bond on Wednes-
day afternoon and the authorities at
Scobey were notified of its approval
here and Mrs. Johnson was released
from Jail according to reports re-
ceived at the Herald.
1t is no new experience for this
woman, as she was held in Jail here
a number of years ago., when she was
a steady boarder at the County bas-
tile for about two months time. 1t is
also no new experience for this wo-
man to appear in Federal Court as
this will be either her second or third
appearance there. The other time
she was let off with a fine and a sus-
pended Jail sentence, conditioned that
she should refrain from selling in
toxicating liquors again. AS a conse-
quence of these previous arrests Mrs.
Johnson may have a tough time of it

World Always Set to '
Give Welcome to Joke

In these days Of modern rapid trans
portation nothing travels faster ana
farther than a new joke. Its appear
ance is as welcome as the birth OF
an heir in an old-fashioned kingdom,
and it is started on dizzy circula-
ton that sweeps the whole country In
concentric rings and then flies off at
a tangent to the farthest confines OF
the Jest to the Barbary states and
London.
The new Joke, perhaps, comes out
modestly and timidly in newspaper
or magazine. 1t is quickly seized and
reproduced by a thousand more. IL
next appears in radio programs; 1t Is
sandwiched in the ''talkies"; it passes
on to the vaudeville stage, and after
it is supposed to have jumped the
ocean it fools its old friends by turn
ing up in the daily comic strips. OF
course, it never. gets away from the
afterdirner speakers. There is noth-
ing 50 much in demand as bright new
jokes-the common property Of all
and there is never overproduction. He
Is a real benefactor Of humanity who
contributes to the world a good joke.

July 1880, passed into history with
figures at the Government Weather
Bureau indicating it was the hottest
month ever recorded.
While reports from all of the wealth
er stations have not been analysed, a
compilation of temperatures register
ed at the larger stations shows it was
hotter for longer time and over a
longer area than in any previous pc
riod since temperture records were
established.
From July A to July 80 not a single
day passed without a temperture of
100 or hotter being officially regis
tered at some place in the country.
This was exclusive, Wether Bureau
officials said, of such points as Phoe-
uix and Yuma, Arizona, where 100 is
a summer commonplace.

Hosiery of Mixed Color
Fad of Centuries Az

The bright-colored hose worn in the
Fourteenth century reused the Ire Of
even Chaucer, who declares that "the
wrapping Of their hose which are de-
ported of two colors, white and red.
white and black, or black and red ind
white and blue, make the wearerS
seem as though the Fire Of st. An
thony or other such mischance had
cankered and consumed one-half Of
their bodies"
= The fashion Of wearing two colors,
switch rendered uncertain the fell
lowship of the legs" continued in spite
Of the ridicule and satire Of the poets
and chroniclers, until the middle Of
the Sixteenth century.
The long hose or herlots worn by
persons of quality at the time were
made Of the finest cloth or velvet, and
there is record Of Henry III ordering
three pairs for his sister Isabella,
which were to be Of velvet embroi-
dered with gold. Knitted stockings,
or, as they were originally called,
stocking hose, were introduced into
Britain in the Sixteenth century, and

Wire Cable Guard Rail

A new type of guard rail is being
placed along the main highways of
Maryland by the State Roads Com
mission to safeguard motorists. 1t
consists of three strands of three
quarter-inch cable attached to heavy
posts sunk deep in the ground.
This type of guard rail will sup
plant the wire-mesh guard rail
which heretofore has been used to
prevent machines running off the
road and going down entertainments.
Only when it is necessary to re-
pair or replace the wire-mesh guards
now standing will the new type of
rail be placed, Harry D. Williar, Jr.,
chief engineer of the Roads Com
mission, declared.
The wire cable protection is con-
sidered stronger and has been adopt
ed generally by road engineers.
The cost of cable guard rail is said
to be slightly higher than the mesh
protection.
Before the posts are sunk into the
ground they are chemically treated
to stand the weather. The upper
portion of the post is painted white
so motorists can more easily distin-
guish them at night.

Expressed in many languages, the
common theme of good roads for all
the world will be studied this fall in
Washington by road builders from SIS
countries attending the sixth inter-
national road congress.
The highway conference will be
held October 6 to II, at the invita-
ton of the United States govern
ment. with an object to continuing
studies begun in Paris in 1908 and
later conducted in other world cap
itals.
1t is expected by Thomas H. Mac
Donald, chief of the bureau of pub
lie roads and secretary-general of
the American organization commits
sion, to be more representative than
any preceding congress.
A particularly large representa-
ton is expected from the Latin
American republics, for whose ben
eft papers prepared for the six ques-
tons of the agenda are being trans
lated into Spanish for the first time.
The material for discussion also
is being prepared in German,
French, and English.

Burial at Arlington

The secretary Of war has the power
to authorize the burial Of a woman
beside her husband in separate grave
in Arlington National cemetery provid-
ed the husband was commissioned
officer. In the case Of enlisted men,
If q widow desires to be buried with
her husband arrangements must be
made with the War department to
have the grave made deep enough SO
that a second casket can be placed
upon that of the soldier; in other
words, the soldier and his widow must
be buried in the same grave. There
would be no question that former
President of the United States, who
was technically ommander-in-chief Of
the army and navy, would be regard
as as a commissioned officer, although
actually President Taft was a civilian
who never held a commission.

Health and Happiness
Too Lightly REGARDED :?

Despite the great mergers and in
ternational financing SO common to-
day, the gentle art Of proper, healthy,
lengthy and joyful living remains the
biggest business on earth, John Clar-
ence Fung declares in Hygeia Maya
zine, In an article directed to business
men.
Many men Of affairs display intelli-
gent interest in their health, but there
are hundreds who imagine that they
enjoy a privileged immunity against
the attractions of fundamental living
habits. One finds bed manufacturers
who use beds as little as anybody pro-
ducers Of health foods who regularly
eat anything and everything until their
capacity fails; jobbers Of gymnasium
equipment whose personal experience
is limited to an infrequent stroll over
a golf course; and resort hotel men
whose fresh air is obtained only when
they retire at night, this health work
er charges.
Too much food, too little exercise
and too little sleep are constantly TAX
ing their toll from prosperous busi-
ness men. Heart disease, cancer and
diabetes attack staggering number.
This situation could be changed
overnight, Doctor Funk insists, If
business men would use the simple ex-
pedient Of having annual physical ex-
aminations. Early diagnosis is the
secret in combating many conditions
that insidiously gain Roadway.

First British Battleship

The British battleship, called Great
Harry, is said to be the first ship
which, strictly speaking, belonged to
the royal navy. 1t was built in 14SS
and had three masts and as late as
the year 1915 was the only ship OF
that build in the English fleet. 1t Is
stated that she was accidentally
burned at Woolwich In 1858. She was
built during the reign Of Henry VII
and was probably called the Great
Harry for his nickname, which was

Bridal Bouquets

It is impossible to state when flow.
ers were first used at a wedding, since
this is very ancient custom. Orange
blossoms were worn and carried by
brides from the earliest times, as they
portend luck and happiness. Spenser
and Milton were Of the opinion that
the orange was the golden apple pre-
scented to Jupiter by Juno on her we'd
ding day. It was customary for the
Anglo-Saxon bride to give her friends
small knots and ribbons to wear or
carry on the wedding day. This GUS
tom still survives in the bouquet Of
the bridesmaids.
