O-ne piano Which meets this severe test Is the Kimball.' A word or two as to Its construc tion will be helpful in determining the choice of Instruments. The outer easing, or xim, of all Kim ball grand pianos consists of a series of light thickness of the best wood glued together in one continuous length and bent around the entire case In one complete form, free from all Joints. This is uninterrupted by cross wood, and consequently trans mits the vibration to every portion of the sounding-board, greatly increasing the singing quality and power of tone. The usual mode of constructing this outer casing, or rim, is to have Jolntß at the corners, which are liable to open and both weaken the Instrument and Impair its ton. Charles W.

As the Tenderfoot crossed his legs and opened his paper, he felt a great satisfaction with himself and the world. Strange about this peace of mind that cornea of the presence of beefsteak and potatoes beneath one's belt. The paper—mused the Tenedfoot— is a great clearing house for thoughts. Here’s a page of news, doings all up and down the state. Here are a couple of columns of advice on Agricultural affairs. An account of the doings of the village dads at the last meeting. A High School boy bursts Into print with the news of his world—all the world revolves about that H. S. build ing at 16. A dissatisfied citizen takes a crack at the exorbitant prices of the homfe merchants. The suave and crafty tradesmen—the butchers, bakers and all the rest display their wares and offer you seductive bargains. The society column apprises you of many pink teas and fussy functions. The savage editor brandishes his trusty quill and hurls anathema and defiance at n villainous corporation. Clearing house? Yea that is Just the word, for everybody brings to the r**r*»r Vi troubles and carries ' n H ihing In the way of satisfaction. :i is just as if the whole neighborhood had gotten to gether for the evening and visited awhile and exchanged gossips and talked politics and cracked Jokes and picked crows and then went home happy and satisfied. Only its all done without the necessity of foregoing your quiet fireside at home. The paper is a clearing house for notions and the editor check’s ’em all up. gives each his due and Incidentally stirs everybody up and keeps them eternally at it. Blessings on the Paper. — » • FRANK YOUNG TAKES SADDLE ROCK RESTAURANT The Saddle Rock has passed into the hands of Frank Young of Mee tootse and he will endeavor to give Cody a service In his restaurant that will be a satisfactory one He 1b an experienced cook and is familiar with what the public desires and will cater to the best patronage of the community.

The company is indeed fortunate in securing Mr. Evans, as he is widely known throughout the county, Is con nected with one of the local banks, occupies the position of town treasur er of Cody and his affiliations are such that he is in a position to secure tho applications of many risks that perhaps no other man would be so well situated to procure. He has writ ten a great many policies in the Aegis in the past few’ months which in the aggregate are more than have been written by any other agent In Wyo ming in the same stretch of time. A contributing cause to this wonder ful success the Aegis has had arises from the large number of local stock holders. Those that have their per sonal capital invested closely scruti nize the enterprise in which the money is placed. If it is life insur ance in which they have embarked with their means they guard the standards of admission to the protec tion their company offers. In Wyo ming, as stated above, there are over 250 holders. They are not only look ing after the interests of the Aegis but equally as important are con stantly endeavoring to add new policy holders. A word as to the policies written by the Aegis: The Aegis policies rep resent the best protection that the brightest minds in the insurance world have yet been able to conceive. They carry every restriction essen tial to safeguard not only those that insure, but the company as well so that it may be able to meet and pay its risks promptly. The Aegis policies while written with liberal conditions do not contain any that attract un desirable applications.
