We hold our stuff until the last,
Then try to rush it through so fast
The printer gets snowed under,
But still we camp upon his trail,
And prod him on with woeful tale, «
Or rant and roar like thunder.
He shoots it through, the proof we get.—
Hell's bells! the job is not right yet. i
We chop that proof to splinters.
It takes two days before he knows
Just what each hieroglyphic shows—
A dumb lot are those printers.
The job's delivered. Some relief!
fo know we're through with rush and
grief,
We ought to thank the printer.
But no! The poor gink's out of luck—
He overcharged us one whole buck.
Once more we damn the printer.

Forty-three Distinct Tribes.
To deal with them is often dif

reasons. Adequate policing is almost

The “Difficult” Tribesmen.
The natives believed the prophecy.
They slaved and saved and sold and
turned all the profit into the coffers
of the priests and leaders. When au- |
thorities sent an armed force to break
up the scheme severe fighting followed
and a number of lives were lost.
The general bellef that the Moros, |
the Mohammedans of the southern |
{slands of the Philippine group, are
the most difficult tribesmen to deal
with is not entirely warranted. True,
they are hardier warriors, more cour-
ageous and intelligent than the other
so called “wild tribes.” But the Moros
are becoming educated, while it is next

18 Foot Shark Caught

enough to bring an 80 foot fishing

powerful engines were operating at

whose crew captured and killed the
big fish 25 miles ncrtheast of Thatch:

When the Natalie was suddenly
jerked to a stop on the fishing grounds
with her big ground fish net trailing
under water, Capt. Tony Linquata and
bis crew figured the net might have
fouled a ledge or sunken wreck, so
they hauled it In and discovered the

This parasite is particularly adapted |

this country the tendency is preserved.
Soil temperatures here appear to

Dentist Pulls Own Teeth

Omaho.—Dr. H. E. Newton, Omaha

own front teeth. After the gums
healed Doctor Newton made a bridge

The doctor, however, didn't pull the
teeth as an advertising stunt,
The rest of the world probably
would never have known that the
doctor did his own dental work If
it hadn't been for L. C. Chapman, in-
surance man, who held the mirror

They are based rather on the way people

Any housewife in America, even of most moderate
means, can draw upon the resources of all the world for
her own private use!
You may study and enjoy outright at very small
expense, music—drama—art in all its forms. You
may review the smartest styles each day as they appear
in the pages of newspapers. You may select household
furnishings, modern conveniences, heat-units, refriger-
ation, food in luxurious and endless variety, cosmetics,
dress-goods, automobiles, anything in fact that is com-
monly looked upon as part of the American scene—you
may select these things leisurely and conveniently by
merely studying the advertisements that appear daily,
weekly and monthly in the papers and magazines that
come into your home.
