There is an-interesting contest be- tween the government and-the out- door advertisers in France. Prohibi- tive taxation is the remedy of the French for billboards. But the ad- vertisers are resourceful; one has leased a field along the railroad and planted it with owers laid out in the form of letters and the company trade-mark, a yellow cow. The effect is so satisfactory that other floral de- signs are being worked out by the advertisers. = The idea is ingenius; flowers are more pleasing than let- ters on a billboard and American ad- vertisers in search of a novelty might profit by the example of the Juvisy firm and use flowers for exploiting breakfast foods, stoves and - bever- ages.—Editorial from Providence (R. L) Journal. Sometimes. By Berton Braley. Sometimes the city chap’s a prince and wins the village maid, capricious. Sometimes the country lad’s a quince whose ways are truly very vicious. Sometimes the cub. reporter fails, the star reporter saves the paper. Some- i times in tracing clues and trails the “dub policeman‘? does the caper. Sometimes, it might be well to add, the keen observer will discover the shabby suitor’s bold and bad, the rich one is the worthy lover. Some- s matter under Act In former years a journey to Flor- ida meant, among other things, a sight of thousands of snowy herons. Atrip down any of the rivers on one of the little stern-wheelers was sure to reveal hundreds; but he is fortu- nate indeed who sees half a dozen of these immaculate birds in & whole 3ason there now. Along the upper reaches of the St. John and its tribu- taries they nested in thousands, fill- ing the air when distributed, like some enormous white cloud. In those days they did not confine themselves to tropical regions, but wandered as far north as Maine. On Long Island the gunners were well acquainted with them, and as late as 1910.a few were noted in South Carolina. These dainty birds of the South fall without the pale of protective col- oration. Against the dark green of mangroves or cypress their snow- white forms stand out like. cameos. Deep in the interior of the Everglades a handful of the once powerful Sem- inole Indians are making their last servations on government land by stand. In these same wilds the last of the snowy herons are struggling against extinction at the hands of the 'plume-huntérs. They are gradually disappearing. Often they are shot from nests that frequently contain four or five young who die a lingering death by starvation. The National Association of Audu- bon societies has accomplished wond- ers in protecting the snowy heron and other birds. The setting aside of re- Bakin’ Powdah.” George W.

Drew the Line on the Tariff, This story was cugzent during the first Cleveland campaign in 1884. It was then related that a gentleman, long distinguished as a law-abiding citizen, found himself one morning ar raigned in court upon a charge of hav. ing assaulted an old friend of his, who had been his guest. ' In defense, he pled justification, say- ing: “Judge, this man, my accuser, was Katie’s eyes sparkled as she quickly snswered, “Bakin’ powdah.” Police Rely on Finger Prints. Francis Galton, finger print expert but|and authority, estimates that the chances of finding the fingers of two persons giving: exactly the same im:’ pression are not greater than one-in 640,000,000,000. Police experts regard finger prints, which can not be dig guised, as far the most conclusive: means of identification. i i Take Plenty of Time to Eat. * There is a saying:that “rapid eat- ing is slow suicide.” If you -have formed the habit of eating too rapidly No. 6.
