REBUILD LUMBER YARD
Workmen Are Now Engaged in
Reconstructing the Burned
Buildings
Waverly—A gang of men is at
work reconstructing the buildings
at Baldwin's lumber yard which
were destroyed by fire last week.
They will be very much improved
and extra precautions will be taken
against fire. A fire wall will be con-
structed between the office and the
adjoining buildings and a good
sized fire and burglar proof vault
will be built in the office. The
partitions and floors in the store
rooms will be lined with asbestos,
and the lumber sheds will be
covered with tin. These precautions
would prevent the rapid spread of
fire from one part of the yard to
another, and greatly lessen the
danger of a general conflagration.

Actress’ Ad.
By way of advertising herself thor-
oughly, a Viennese actress sat for 23
days in a glass cage, taking nothing
put mineral water, of which she con-
sumed 60 bottles. Meantime she stud-
fed the new part in which she is to ap-
pear shortly. Crowds were in attend
abhoce at all hours, for ihe cage Was
placed on the Prater, On coming out
she declared herself to be in fine condl-
tion, but she speedily made away with
a hearty repast of fish, veal and beer,
windipg up with a glass Of schnapps.
Didn't Want Much.
Once a tramp went up to the back
door of a house and knocked; a lady
came to the door. “Please, mum, could
you do a little sewing for meT” sald the
tramp
“Yes, with pleasure,” answered the
lady. “What sewing would you like W
have me do for you?’
“1 have a button here; if you'll please
sew a pair of pants on WwW It I'll be
very much obliged. "—San Francisco

STYLES IN PLAYING CARDS
Backs Are Decorated with Pictures
in Keeping with the
Seasons.
In the fall output of playing cards
several pew styles of aecoration for
the backs of the cards are shown,
Some decks, which were apparently pul
upon the market at the begloniug ol
borse show week says the New York
Sun: are ornamented with the pictured
heads of hunters and junipers, others
represent gorgeous masses of chrysan
themums, while on still others the foot
ball hero holds forth
In many bouses in which cards form
the chief amusement the scebes ou the
backs of the cards vary with the sea
sons. Io summer the dawdler over
whist and casino can atquire a reduced
temperature by contemplating water
falls and forest vistas on the cards In
ber opponent's hand, while in winte:
the blood may be gquickened by the
sight of a snowy landscape
The various sports, too, are all rep
resented in thelr season. Several yearn
ago when the cycling craze was at is
height it was the fashion to decorats
playing cards with bicycles. In the
last two years the wheels have been
superseded by automobiles. Many clubs
and societies have thelr cards made 0
order, in which case the badge of the
order forms the decoration. So impor.
tant is this phase of decorative art
considered by the manufacturers of
playing cards that they keep in theirs
employ persons whose sole business if
is to study out new desigus appropriate
to the time and season.
