PRINCE FINDS A HOMK
An old black dog came muzzling
his way into the *iouse last night,
i twig lu ULs mouth and playfulness
iu every move. His spirit was f'"e
to behold, but age and rheumatism
made his efforts feeble.
Somewhere iu tho sunny south
the master is trying to recover
from a severe illness, but the old
dog, his partner on many a hard
trail, has been nosing around these
cold nishts lov iiug for a home.
Woru out sled dogs are sort of a
useless nuisance, trakiug mud into
the house, making things smell
"doggy" where they snooze, and
they always want to snooze iu the
front room by the stove, but—
Well then the veteran of many
a hard fought battle against co'd
anj wind comes muzzling around
and the children sieze him and mau
him about muca to his satisfaction
and teg him to stay, and they stake
a claim covering the choice spot in
frout of the fire, which you have
previously located as the spot to
toast your shins while you absorb
the late magazines, and you nre
forced to move to a lets comfort
able place; what are you going to
do?
You're going to let the kiddies
maul and pet the old veteran till
they get tired and he goes to sleep,
and when they crawl up on your
knee and say:
"Can't we keep him, Daddy?
you're going ;o look serious, aud
after much misg .ing about whetlie.
he will stay and who will feed him,
you'll say:
"Yes, we'll let him stick around
awhile."—Seward Post.

For most of us money is the only
thing that we can give. Money is
colli, but it buys warmth, hope,
shelter, ease from the sweats of
agony; it mends limbs, keeps moth
crs with their children, builds
hom-s iLgain. Motey! It fights fev
er, and feeds the starving. Let us
give money: If we do not give, liow
■Uiall we show that our 'hearts fuel,
that the spirit of America suffers
with the sufferiug of those millions
of innocent, maimed, fevered,
starving bodies, these millio-us of
innocent and tortured souls.
How else, save by giving and
again giving, shall we—can we—
show our pity and our comrade
ship?

400,000 CRIMINALS HERE.
Cne-eiyhth Mentally Wrong, Says
Head of Prison Association.
. There tiro 400,000 crluiiuals In tho
United States, mid 12 per cent of theui
are "wroug In (lie bend," according to
tigures given at the American Prison
association convention at Oakland, Cal..
by the president, Joseph B. Byers of
Philadelphia.
He said that In Massachusetts, an
average state, 07.0 per cent of prison
inmates ar_> "repeaters," anil they com
mit 01 per cent of the crimes. Feeble
minded criminals, he asserted, should
bo kept by themselves, as they are In
capable of doin-r anything under the bo
called "honor system."
fie would have parents pay for the
support of their delinquent children,
and he would do away with all tho
county jails and substitute houses of
detention under state control.

CORRECTING A FAULT
You liave undoubtedly noticed that a cumber of your Deeotives
taken during the past summer have been flat. This is due to UNDER
i-.\!iosure—and the way to get the best results is to use a tri-pod, giving
a lijtle time to the taking-of the picture. Try it—the result will more ,
than compensrte you for the trifling cost of the tri-pod. If you do not (
have one. we can supply your wants. Metal or wood. With or without
