LOOKING AHEAD A FEW YEARS
Augustus Tolliver, the soap king,
strods wruthfully out of his stmteroom
aboard the blimp and seised the arm
of tpe porter.
"
"Idiot I" 5» roared, “why didn’t you
give me a call this morning? I told
you I bad to be In London for a di­
rector*’ meeting at 8 a. m. sharp, and'
now.London Is Lord knows'how many
thousands of miles In our rear."
“Ah pounded on yo’ door, boas, but
yo* refuses to waken,” replied the
porter.
The soap king pulled out a watch.
“Eleven-thirty,” he grunted dis­
gustedly. “Where are we now?"
“Jest passed over S t Louis, boas;
we’ll be back In N’Yawh at 1&0B."
“Oh r r well.” said Tolliver. “I cam
attend that 12:80 meeting of the soap
powder people and catch the 1:80

Rat Skin* far Leather.
- The suggestion ha* been made that
the Sit problem might be best solved
hy making use of the skins of the
rodents for the purpose of leather.
Homebody with the gift of guessing
computes that there are 10.000.000 la
this country, and the damage they da
would feed a good-slsed army.—It
would take at least 5,000 skins a day
to supply 'a email modern tanneryr?
Nobody wants the rata, they belong
to anybody that can catch them.
That la the problem— to catch them,
and then deliver the goods There to
not enough lenther to go around.
Fish akin* are susceptible of tan­
ning. and there are rat sklne which
make good leather, large enough for
many purposes.
This lot is worth $500; adjoining
lots have sold for that price, and it
will be good for that again before
many years. Sewer taxes all paid
and street improvement taxes to
date. This is the greatest bargain
ever offered in Coquille city prop­
erty. For further information call at
Cura for Poison Ivy.
Mr*. Evelyn 8. Trynbath. wife of the
Rev. Robert W. Trenbath. rector of Rt
James’* Episcopal church of Montclair.
N J., has conferred a boon on suffer­
ers from poison Ivy by announcing a
remedy which those who bars triad It
■ay Is a most efficacious remedy. It
Is simply the green leaves of common
catnip nibbed on the affected parts un­
til the juice run*.
This never falls, Mrs. Trenbath says,
no mnffier how advanced the case may
be. and Is simple te uae, especially In
the rase of rhll«l/&». The plant growt
usually In great abundance behind old
haras, and la said to be so antagonis­
tic to tbs Ivy that If planted near It the
Ivy disappears.
