David L, Hoagland, convicted slayer of William Patterson, and sentenced to be hanged at the state penitentiary the morning of April 16, has been given a re- spite of several months—or until an appeal can be obtained through the supreme court, as the result of the denial of the defense counsel’s motion for a SOLVES MYSTERY OF FICTION Question Long in Dispute Said to Be Explained by Weavings in Per. sian Rug. Most Persian rugs tell a story of some sort, but few tell one as clearly as a bargain rug Banks bought and proudly exhibited to his friends. The rug was at least 200 years old, the dealer said, the prized rug of a family allied by several marriages to the family of the rug merchant. Into it had been woven the history of this first family. This history is told, not ‘as in most Oriental rugs, in Arabic characters, but in hieroglyphic figures that sug- gest the whole story. At one end are two figures, man and woman, the founders of the family, and their first home, a humble dwelling. Time passes, represented in the rug by six inches of weave. The couple are able to buy two cows. Children come to the home. Horses and sheep are bought as the family continues to grow prosperous. And in the center of the rug is the symbol of the at- tainment of great prosperity—a great house, Banks, the American owner of this rug, declares that the mystery of the origin of American success fiction is solved, ‘'wo hundred years and more ago they took this medium to show how perseverance and frugality paid. MADE THE BRITISHERS GASP When It Came to Underdone Meat, Cowboy Was in a Class by Himself. It is related that in the early days of the Southwest, when Fort Worth, Texas, was a raflhead and rather on the edge of things, three Englishmen who were bent on seeing the border- lands of America sat down at a table in the dining room of the one small hotel for dinner. The fourth occupant of the table was a cowboy, just in from the range. Presently the waiter came up and orally presented the menu, announc- ing that the only meat available was antelope steak, and asking how the guests would like to have it cooked. “Underdone,” said the first English- man, “Serve mine very rare,” said the sec- ond. “I wish mine scarcely cooked at all; just sear it a bit on a hot griddle, and bring it so,” said the remaining Briton, The waiter turned to the cowboy, who had frankly listened to the three other orders, and the son of the plains drawled, “Wal, just cripple the danged deer a little and chase it through here; Ill git a slice off’n it before it git out.’—Saturday Evening Post. Arsenic Town's Sole Production, An arsenic mining and refining plant at.the little town of Branton, Va., is said to be the only one in the world devoted solely to the production of arsenic. Pure arsenic is a steel-gray metallic substance, but the poison is better know in the form of an oxide, the white arsenic usually produced by the refineries, At Brinton ore is found running in small veins through a gray mica quartz formation. When taken from the mine, it ia put through a crusher and then placed In an fron tube known as a calciner. Here, for 45 minutes, it Is subjected to a heat, of 8,000 degrees Fahrenheit. The resulting gases deposit arsenic in the form of an oxide onto “baffle” plates in a flue 319 feet long. The de posit, a dirty gray powder full of tin- purities, is placed In a refining fur nace, and eventually the pure oxide ie ground to a powder and placed in bar- retrial by Judge Bert S. Varian of Weiser, before whom the con- victed man was tried. “And Home Came Ted.” NO. 67 REPORT OF THE CONDITION OF THE Cottonwood State Bank At Cottonwood, in the State of April 8, 1923.

Two men were out for a walk one day, und they commenced a discussion as to what was the best employment to which to put their sons, They discussed various businesses end trades. “Thad been thinking of putting my boy into the motor works,” confessed Robinson, Hughes had been getting the worst of the argument, so he fell, back on humor to save himself. “I think I shall let my son become 4 gardener,” he said quietly. “A gardener!” retorted Robinson, falling into the trap. “Whyever a gardener?” “Because a gardener runs his own mint, sets his own thyme, and raises his celery every year.” And they walked on for miles and miles in silence, Flower Symbolic of Crucifixion. When the Spanish sailors were roaming about South and Central America they found a flower so sym- bolic of the Cru¢ifixion that they named it the “flower of the Passion.” In the five-parted purple or lavender blossoms with stripes of white they saw the crown of thorns and the five marks of the wounds of the Savior, The styles were the three nails, and the stamens were the hammer that drove the nails into His hands and feet. The floral leaves were the ten apostles, Judas and Peter being absent, the one having betrayed and the other denied the Master. The leaves were the hands of the persecutors, and the clinging tendrils the scourges. Some of the species of the tlower are cultivated for the pale yellow berries, of the size of a amall apple. The root of some species is polsonous, the juice from them acting Hike morphine, We shall have in fo a ta ss te ts ts sh ee tversorortonfondorondordorderiendortecte Sropetedetmtonted St “s a aaa a % DRESS ; 3881 # = Transfer ~ 10575 STANDARD DESIGNER PATTERNS with THE BELROBE » 2 ake Lele nbende eer chorderdortn tethotordordocietndeocdotlotde otoeterondociontortocerforion Tt ALL TRUE Then there is the man and brother who pronounces bomb as if it were spelled “balm.” Sald one ox to another: “We should not criticize our human masters too severely. They kill each other almost as readily as they kill us.” Men who spend all their evenings at home seldom run the world; however, they are a great help to those who do, Haircuts have risen 40 to 50 per cent in sdme cities. Well, in the Sey- enteenth century men wore their hair a foot and a half long and curled tt; and that was worse. Traveling for one’s health is quite often simply trying to forget one’s {ll- ness; but that’s something, When everything is fixed just right in a carefully guarded world, young men will not sow any more wild oats, Maybe they will grow mignonette. Compensations: The same shake of the milk bottle that diffuses the cream gathered at the top does it for the dirt at the bottom, A Story of Parts, A city man, driving his automobile along a little-used country road, heard something rattle beneath his car, stopped, looked back and saw a bright metal object lying in the road a short distance behind. It was a plow-point, evidently lost by some farmer. It was fully half an hour before the next car came along, and its occupant, seeing the first man flat on his back under his vehicle by the roadside, stopped and asked what the trouble was, The city man emerged and held up the plow-polnt. “This blooming thing dropped off my car,” he said, “and I’ve been hunt- ing for half an hour to find out where it belongs.”—Everybody’s Magazine. Breakfast Foods in the Ple-Belt, “What kinds of breakfast food have you?” the dyspeptic inquired of the waitress at the Klinkerville inn, who stood before him with her arms akim- bo. “We've got all the reg’lar kinds,” said the waltress, who was a Klinker- ville girl; ‘ham an’ eggs, steak, brook trout, doughnuts an’ apple pie. You can have ’em all, if you like, an’ a cup o’ coffee an’ griddie-cakes. We calcu- ou maxes ee | all they want."—Philadelphia Ledger.
