Hot Winds vs.. Irrigation.

Mr.. W. II. Pagan, a prominent citizen
who has been a close, observer of the
climatic features of the State. in a re-
cent interview published in the Attica
Advocate, gave it as his opinion that
our destructive hot winds lin Western
Kansasl are caused directly from the
buffalo grass which, growing so thiclzly
on the hard unbrOken prairies. forms q.
mat which will admit no water pene-
trating the soil to any extent aud, as
the grass begins to cure and brown, 1t
absOrbs the suns rays, which II again
reflects as from hot stove; this heat is
carried on by the gentle winds and on
passing through any green field will
virtually destroy it in few days. He Is
positive that the hot winds do not come
from Texas, as generally supposed, but
are caused right at home, and in sup
port of this theory says that in the past
eleven years he has noticed the hot
winds blowing from the north about as
often as from the south; another reason
he gives Is that if this hot wind blew in
on US from Texas the air would
be heated to a considerable height
from the ground. while he has practical
" demonstrated time and again that the
heat does not arise to a greater height
than twelve to fifteen feet, and any one
standing on the roof of cottage during
these blows will ascertain for himself
that the air Is so much cooler and pleas
anter that he can not but be convinced.
The only remedy we have 70 rid our
selves OF our worst enemy is TO pIovv
under every acre of buffalo grass and
keep it IN subjectiOD-
In the meantime he advises farmers
who plant large fields OF corn to try the
plan of the successful farmers in Ford
and other western counties, who PIoyv
deep, and In planting, begin with sey-
eraI rows OF cane, then several rows of
corn, alternating this way throughout
the entire field; cane generally retains
its strength and moisture sufficient to
make a sure crop and by its aid in keep
ing the hot wind from the corn the
farmer viii be more than satisfied with
his yield, while his neighbOr may pos
Eibiy lose his entire crop.
Mr.. Pagan is an enthusiast on the sub
ject of irrigation, and has personally
examined the bitches in Western Kan
sas and Colorado. and owns consider
able land under these bitches, which he
says viii soon make the country bIoa-
has been that when Kansas was dry and
needed water on her fields the bitches
tapping the rivers IN Colorado had
drained the streams dry and, conss-
queutly, late maturing crops suffered
for water, but the new year viii wit

one who has had a well dug in Western

Late Dinners.

Eastern cities have what are called Wis
itors' bureaus and ladies' guides, which are
very successful. They are pleasant par
lors where friends can meet who wish to
shop and enjoy luncheon. Women in
the city on business who do not wish to
20 to hotel can have room for a day
or two. Guides are furnished strange
ladies visiting the city and everything is
arranged for their comfort. The business
is in the hands of stock company with
a long list of influential stockholders
Something of the sort in our city would
be appreciated by many ladies. 1t is often
puzzling question where to meet the
friend who wishes to shop with you.
One hates to stand on corner. If you
undertake to wait in a store the floor
walker will ask what you are looking for,
and you will say:
waiting for friend"
ooh, yes, excuse me"
Then a clerk will repeat the question
Another clerk seeing you sitting before
the counter asks you your wishes, and it
continues until the whole force has been
informed that you are waiting for friend
and you have the embarrassing feeling
that they wonder at your audacity in Sc
lecting their place of business as wait
ing-room. If you wait at restaurant the
head waiter and sixteen other walters
will come up and ask you for your order,
then they will stand off in a row and
watch you to see that you don't carry off
the triple-plate castors. There should be
some place where ladies living in oppo-
site parts of the city could meet without
any feeling of infringing on some one
else's propertv

personal appearance than a thousand ser
mons.
But, after all, these are not the people
one wants to look at on Easter day The
air is full OF flowers and every lily seems
to ring out the chime that death is no
more" Every rosebud seems to tell it
was put there among all the flowers as
prayer for somebody. Every tiny violet
looks up with an air of great Joy, because
it was thought worthy to be among the
Easter emblems. Everything in the wide
world is telling again and again the beau
tiful story of the resurrection, and what is
there Tor you TO ask me, my friend? Last
week we buried the wickedness and the
sin, the small vices and the petty mean
nesses; today We are going to arise and 90
forth wearing the clean garb OF hope
and faith and with a blessed de-
termination Of charity and goodwill
to all the world. That's what
we ought to try and do, and it is half the
battle If we try. You close your eyes for
the minute, and the very air seems full of
the tidings of great Joy, and unconscious
ly, you repeat, again and again, Christ
has arisen, death is no more" and every
time you say it you hear echoed back to
you GLORY be to God~ And you feel
that il you were lot one of the white
robed ones to greet Him who came into
the world little child to save it, that you
are here today one of the sinners for
whom He died, for whom He has arisen
and proven His divinity. The rest is
for you; and Easter morning, amid
the flowers and the music and the great
Joy, conclude that death is no more, that
there is going to be a resurrection of
virtues, sweet flower from the sin that
has been buried.
God bless each and every one of YOU
who is my friend all the country over, and
give you happy Eastertide. BAB.

Last Word,

To THE EDIToR-Sir: AS I have always
had the last word in every discussion in
which became involved, 1 am sure you
will allow me that privilege in this one.
Now, Sage Brush" please be kind
enough to tell me who began the
personalities and insults? OF course,
understand that it was not q
personality and an insult you used when
you told me that I might 'have
stirred the passions of his heart,
but won the love of his heart
never" Yet 1 believe you will be just
enough to acknowledge that you began
the insult" Notwithstanding the fact,
own weapons are turned upon you. You
say you are glad that the editor refused
me your address. So am 1 /; more than glad
for don't believe it would be any credit
to me to correspond with any one who
will run at the first show of fight from q
woman. Now, pray do try your rage 10
smother, and stop using personalities.

you, as l admire brave men, even if they
are enemies. / read the article referred

that paragraph, 1 must acknowledge
that l didn't know it was
immodest until "Sage Brush" informed
me that such was the case. Then 1 asked
mamma what he meant, and she ex-
planned, The acid was only Of use TO me
as a means of cleaning my hands of the
stains made by answering the person

1 will be obliged to use some more this
week. 1t would never do for you and to
attempt to discuss the merits of the
American and English people, for we
would be sure TO quarrel. Don't you think
you had better put on that diamond
breast-pin?" You advise me not to "pour
acid on the puppies, as they become old
dogs with teeth" Let me say that bark
ing dogs never bite" therefore am not
frightened.
Now let me give you some advice: Don't
criticise "Bab, even il she isn't q learned
woman" and above all, don't quarrel with
me.
For you need TO learn Q lesson,
Though your nature Is 90 human;
Take this counsel and my blessing.

HOT WATER CURE.
A Simple Panacea for Domest Ills and
Easily Obtained.

Easily Obtained.
A poor woman writes to the New
York World in great distress. She
wishes to know what to do with a
husband who will not allow her
to have any company or to go out for
relaxation She states that she does all
the house work and sewing for family
OF seven, and that if she or her children
desire any pleasure or company the de-
fights and uses all sorts OF undesirable
language. She begs advice from some
kindly disposed person.
Here is question for this poor woman.
Have you, madam, ever tried pure boiling
water? It's really the only remedy which
at present suggests itself.
If a man who has sworn to love and
protect woman and who rewards her
faithful devotion to him and her care of
their children with curses, abuses and
brawls can in any way be moved to a
sense of his total lack of dec. ncy it would
be this hot water treatment and no other.
The remedy may at first seem trifle
severe. There are, to be sure, arguments
which might be advanced in favor of a
stuffed club. This has been known to
work wonders, and it is the opinion OF
many experts that no family should be
without one There is this objection TO q
club-it is an unwieldly affair for a woman
to use unless she be veritabc Amazon.
Then there is the broomstick panacea.
This Is an old wives cure-all, having been
in favor for many years. There is no
question about its efficacy if properly
handled. A dexterous and nimble wo-
man can sweep quarreling spouse out of
the house. along with other refuse matter,
in very quick time.
Heaping Goals of fire is often suggested.
This course might avail in certain domes-
tic maladies, especially where the patient
is not too thick-headed. But when all the
perceptiye faculties are on a par with
those Of a finely developed hog, Goals Of
fire would have but little effect.
In this case tho husband appears TO be
suffering from an acute attack OF mental
rabies, or in plain, homely phrase, "pure
cussedness" He needs TO be brought out
Of ii by the quickest process known. A
severe shock will often cause n marvellous
cure, and nothing occurs which is liable
to produce greater shock than the
remedy suggested IL will doubtless act
as n counter irritant and will draw the in
ward fever TO the outside. Moreover it
will demonstrate the truth OF the some
what trte saying: "Courtsbip Is bliss,
marriage is blister"
Hot water is singularly cleansing and
purifying, but the greatest inducement
this treatment offers is the fact that il
will not be necessary TO repeat 1t many
times. AS rule. one dose is considered
sufficient A few stubborn cases require
two and even three, but the most virulent

The Women Are Having Their Pictures

The Women Are Having Their Pictures
Painted Inside OF Watch Covers.
The ladies of Gotham are very good to
the gentlemen of this place, says the New
York World. They are presenting them
with miniatures OF themselves exquisitely
painted on ivory. Time was when a
simple photo card size was good enough
for anybody's best fellow. Then cabinet
must be bought for him, or panel nearly
as large as life and as natural as the
camera could make it, Now il costs $50
to give ones likeness TO ones divinity, for
il must be upon the finest OF polished
ivory and so beautifully tinted that none
but a real artist can do the work.
The most approved ivory likenesses are
no larger than the pictures OF George
Washington upon our postage stamps.
And they are designed to be fitted within
a locket which is to be worn upon the
watch-chain. Twenty-Five dollars is the
very cheapest sum for which the ivory
likeness can be obtained. They used TO
cost $50, but an artist recently imported
who makes a specially of them says:
"They cost no more than twenty-five in
Lunnon." And so one must pay no more
than that in this country.

artist who understands china painting,
the colors do not change in the firing and

Still another way of giving ones like
ness TO ones best boy is by having it
painted upon the inside OF the case OF his
watch. This method possesses one adj
vantage over those previously mentioned.
namely, that of endurance. Seasons may
wax and wane. Time may come and time

particular watch goes on, just so long will
the dainty, smiling features look out from
the inside OF the golden cover. Nothing
can erase it and nothing can cover it up
save another picture painted over it. And
shame be upon the artist who could be
prevailed upon to do so ruthless q deed.

ARTISTIC WALLS.
How to Select WALLPAPER That Is Cheerful
and Effective.


and Effective.
The highest art is now displayed in the
designs for Wallpapers. says the New
York World, and there lie no discounting
the magnificent appearances OF some OF
these latest patterns when properly placed
on the sides of the room. Large figures
in old gold. especially scroll work in bord.
ers, are used. In selecting wallpaper it
should be chosen in accordance with
good taste, and the most important ques-
ton 10 decide is whether it is TO form
decoration for itself or whether il is to be-
come mere back ground for pictures.
In either case the colors should be
subdued in tone, and two shades
OF hight drab or silver-gray will be
found the most appropriate for this pur-
pose. Where water-color drawings are
hung in drawing room paper of en-
bossed white or cream color with very
small spots of gold, will not be amiss. The
patterns should also be selected with
reference to the place. Where large
part OF the wall Is 10 be presented to the
eye a greater play of line in the patterns
may be attractive, but in oil other situa-
tions the patterns should be comparatively
simple. 1t is mistake to make the WALL
paper decorations of the same celor OF the
furniture. Instead OF repeating the color
of the furniture and hangings it should
