Baker & Son “Where Quality and Prices Meet” ° SATISFIED WITH DOG’S MEAL Westerner in New York Proved He Knew a Good Thing When He Saw it, A man and wife moved to New York from the West—a sane, conservative American man and wife, used to money and knowing the worth of it— and brought the family dog along, paying $5 extra fare for the dog, by the way, on the train. They went to a large and gorgeous hotel and in the due course of time the dog needed sus- tenance. “Ring for a walter,” said the bus- band, “and we'll get the dog some scraps.” The floor walter came and when asked to bring some food for the dog explained with some hauteur that he was the floor walter and not the dog waiter, but would Inform the dog waiter of the desires of the dog. The dog waiter arrived in course of time and the predicament of the dog was explained to him. The dog walter wrote down the order carefully and departed. Presently he returned bear- ing a silver tray on which were dis- Played daintily various articles of food—some vegetables, some meat and a cracker or two, “What's that?" asked the husband, examining the contents of the tray with interest. “The service for the dog, sir,” the walter replied, “How much ts it?” yy “One dollar, sir.” al The husband took the tray. “Get the dog a bone,” he sald. “I'll ent th It's the best-looking meal I 1 in the place, and the cheap amuel G, Blythe, in Saturday Evening Post. KNIFE ENDED ALL SQUAWKING Pets of Clemenceau No Longer Cre- ated Disturbance, After Undergo- ing a Slight Operation. M. Clemenceau’s love of pets, of which much has appeared in the press since his recent visit to London, once involved him in trouble with his neighbors, Twelve years ago, during his first term as premier, he had a number of peacocks and storks in- stalled in the gardens attached to the ministry of the interior, There are no trees In these gardens, only lawn and flower beds, which in M. Clemenceau's opinion lack animation—hence the peacocks, But other people living in the Place Beauvan complained that these birds were too animated, their erles being so persistent as to render sleep impossible. Things reached such a pass that the prefect of police was asked to indict his official superior for disturbing the peace of his neighbors, who were all the more indignant because M. Cle- menceau went home every night to sleep at his flat in the Rue Franklin, far out of the range of the peacocks’ erles. However a scandal was averted by the premier allowing a slight oper- ation to be performed on the vocal chords of his pets, which, without oth- erwise injuring them, rendered them Incapable of squawking. And Still Eggs Are High! The hens need a walking delegate. Grinding the beaks of the poor unpro- tected fowls seems to be the modern poulterer’s long sult. Witness the modern working day of an unhappy hen on an up-to-date chicken farm, where as many as 18,000 eggs are “hatched at one time. Electric Hght has done it. The lights burn steadily until 10 p.m. At 4a. m. they are turned on gradually until their full glare wakes the hens. The poultry then sit up and rub their eyes and think. “How short the nights are getting! Yet it’s certainly daylight. Well—just one darned day after another!” Nights are short. The touching innocence of the hen victim- izes it to the extent of getting only six hours’ sleep a night. Eight-hour day? Why, the chicken works as long as the farmer !—The Nation's Business.

Rubber curbs may not be feasible, but whaf a lot of tire expense they would save, Backing into a curb, run- ning into a curb or driving too close to a curb, so that the tire scrapes along the concrete and damages the side walls of the tire, are three ways of shortening the life of your tires. AVOID OVERHEATING ON LOW Trouble Can Be Prevented by Keeping Mixture in the Leanest Possible Condition. When It is necessary to employ the low gear for a considerable period it is possible to obviate the overheating that would ordinarily result by keep- ing the mixture in the leanest pos- sible condition.
