Then in a fit of utter dis- gust he gave himself up to the pelice and declared he would rob no more. The next time George Burgoyne, a Canadian trapper, kills a wolf, he will make sure that it is “killed dead.” Find- ing one in his trap recently, he, beat it with astick until it was apparently.lifeless, then started home, On the way thi i eis gase > Perhaps the new securities law is well- meant, but it seems impossible to protect natural-born suckers by legislation. At the recent trial of one “Baron” Hartzell in Sioux City, Ia. it was disclosed that he had swindled several dupes out of about $1,300,000 in the last 13 years by repre- senting that he could obtain for them a share ofthe estate of Sir-Francis Drake, valued at 22 billion dollars. There is no e estate, and the bogus baron was giv- en 10 years and a $2,000 fine. THE USEFUL HAIRPIN An observant man is Chtis Billopp of the Baltimore Sun, who. writes inform- ing essay on the uses of a hairpin, iw which he describes that imp}. -nt as a small wire bent double in the .siddle, and con- venient for: “e Getting the meat out of walnuts, pe- cans, and so forth; ne aa j ‘Twisting around the hub of a toy auto- mobile to keep the wheel’ from coming off; Picking the teeth, if’ done “in: the pri- vacy of one’s bedroom; Making emergency repairs in the elec- trical lighting system, though you had bet- ter be pretty careful if you don’t want to get electrocuted; For cleaning pipes and making ‘holes in cigars that won’t draw; for fishing coins } that have fallen into eracks; for pinning curtains to curtain rods; for improvising a link for a broken chain; for holding an un- dershirt togethe: when a vita) button has come off in the wash. es For perforating the cap of a salt shak- er in damp weather; for picking a stub- born cork out of the mouth of a bottle; for a book mark; for buttoning.g'*~**: for pieking* locks ; for*running strings turowgh*! -brassigres; for tools for. delicate clay mod- eling; for a hook to keep the dvr of the medicine cabinet shut-and for othe domes- tic: projects too numerous to mention. Then 5 “Is it any’ wonder, then, that when a hairpin is needed to pin in the hair, one can never be found?” HARDY NEW COWS There appears to be no limit to the ambitions of scientists, and the. amazing thing is that ambitions are generally, ful- filled in actua! results. An instance is the development of a supcrior type of cow, able to withstand the rigors of . far northern climates suc’ as that of Alaska, Concerning this. development, Dr. Evans of the Department of Agriculture, recently gave an interesting statement. Under the supervision of the department, experimental crossing of Galloway cows with the hardy Asiatic yak has produced an animal capable of subsisting on the scanty vegetation of the far north, while preserving desirable meat and milk preduc- ing qualities. _ Another venture was the crossing of American cows with the Brahman zebu of the Far East, which produced an animal especially fitted to thrive in the het, dry climates’ of the Southwestern states. This animal is also able to -csist tick infeetion which is very detriment... to ordinary cat- tle in those regions. All this may not be exactly evolution, but it is something closely akin to it. PLIGHT OF THE AGED While not a pleasant subjeet to dwell upon, am occasional look ahead to the con- dition which may surround old age would be advisable, even for those whose cireum- “stances in early life are satisfactory and whose future seems secure. ©, | We may well be reminded that nearly ‘pureed rar all Old people aré Wholly“or ally’ Hependent’ upon others ‘fer sup- dle life were prosperous; some even weal- thy. sa. ® 4a ei? Who can not look about him and see acquaintances who were once the envy of their neighbors, but whe through business reverses, accidents, iHness or extravagance are now brought to feel the sting « © -over- ty? Usually such disasters might have been averted by a reasonable exercise of prudence and thrift. Keeping up wiih one’s neighbors in a faise display of prosperity ig one fruitful source of ol@ age poverty, and there are many others. Mach of the misery which usually accviapanies old age might be avoided by looking thead before ‘it is too late. Donald McCormick, of Seattle, made a collection of five alarm clocks and new doesn’t need even one. Walking down the street the loud ticking of the time- pieces caused his search by a detective and it was found that he had stolen them. Now he is in jail, where an attendant will see that. he aocsn’t oversleep. Question: If the state will spend mil- lions on roads, why will it not also de se on scheols?—Ocala Banner.
