1t is not work that kills men; it

Take care of your health; you

When you have brought one fine

If envy, like anger, did not burn
itself in it's own fire, and consume

wishes worst to, would set the
whole world on fire, and leave the
most excellent persons the most
miserable.-ClarendOn.

aid have a right to ask it from
their fellow men, and no one who
has the power of granting it can
refuse it without guilt Walter
Scott.
Do not use thyself to dispute
against thine own judgment to
show thy wit, lest it prepare thee
to be Indifferent about what is
right; nor against another man to
vex him, or for mere trial of skill,
since to inform or to be informed,
ought to be the end of all confer
ences.-[ Penn.
1t has always been more diff
cult for a man to keep than to get,
for in the one case fortune aids, as
it often assists injustice; but in
the other, sense if required. There

then from want of sense, roll
head over heels to the bOttOm.-
Basil.
Many have no happier moments
than those that they pass in soil
tude, abandoned to their own
imagination, which sometimes
puts sceptors in their hands or
miters on their heads, shifts the
scene of pleasure with endless
variety, bids all the forms of
beauty sparkle before them, and
gluts them with every change of
visionary luXury.-[Johnson.
The eternal world is not merely a
world beyond time and the grave.
1t embraces time; it is ready to
realize itself under all the forms of
temporal things. Its light and
power are latent everywhere, wait

ready to break through the trans
parent veil of earthly things and

An inequality Exists ~ he Law Nov
Stands.

There seems to be an impression
and a well founded one that the
present assessment laws Of the state
could be improved particularly in
its feature pertaining to the equal
ization made by the state board.
Iowa and South Dakota have ex-
actly similar laws and the same dis
appointing feature is to be found in
each. The law permits an increase
in the valuation, as returned by the
county assessors in everything in
which the total is Invisible by the
number Of things valued. For in
stance, If 100 horses were assessed
at $1,000 it is easily ascertained that
each horse is assessed at $40 and il
the last named sum is a just value
it is permitted to remain. But il
not in accord with the average all
over the state it ia raised or lowered
by the board as the case may be.
With merchandise the state board
is compelled to accept the returns
made by the county assessors, for
the reason that the board has no
means of determining as to the cor
r~ectness Of the assessment. They
do know, however, tllat il a horse is
assessed for SIS in Clay county and
only SO in Union that mn inequality
exists, which can be adjusted by
assessing horses in each county ut
S12.5O. In one case it il q raise Of
Is per cent, in the other a reduction.
To get at some means by which
merchandise can be equitably I'D
justed would be acceptable.
1t has been suggested by a good
many newspapers that the hest and
more equitable means would be to
allow the stnte beard of equalization
to make q general raise. For in.
stance, If a county is found to be
particularly low or below the state
average let the per cent increase be
made against the county and every.
thing suffer alike. If an increase Of
10 per cent is necessary let it be
made on the total valuation as re-
turned by the county. Then every
body would suffer alike. Surprising
a case. Here is q, who lives in town
has a farm and \ mill. His farm
this year is assessed at 81 y538 and
his mill at e1,45O. The board in
creases the farm 10 per cent and can
do nothing with the mill. So the
lakes on the farm amount to 1924,
while the mill is put in at go. The
difference, $10.24. Suppose the law
permitted a general raise instead Of
permitting an increase on the vulua-
tons OF those things which were di.
visible by:.their number. An increase
Of q certain per cent on farm aud
mill alike would make no difference
except that which naturally existed
in the value OF the property.

A decidedly interesting divorce
case is brewing near Richland and

come off ut the next term of court
in the hearing of the application,
for Temporary alimony to the amount
of $50 q month. Mrs. Martha
Henke sues her husband Clement
Henke for an absolute divorce. 1t
is claimed by Mrs. Henke that she
lias been cruelty abused and treated
by her husband upon divers occas-
ions; that she has been compelled
to work out in the field and do the
labor ola man for her husband. In
her complaint she asks for one.half
of the property which is valued at
a good many thousand dollars.
There were three children born to
the marriage which took place in
1879 in this county. Mr.. and Mrs.
Henke have been residents of Union
county for many years and it is in
deed a ~regretful circumstance that
the courts should be called upon to
adjudicate their differences.

American woman, as far as he knew,
who had ever had the honor of be-
ing admitted to the floor of the
house of peers. Mrs. Owen isn't at
all overcome at the distinction, but
more people than a few have en-
joyed her cleverness i'll overcoming
British dignity.
Mrs. Tarsney, wife of Represent
ative John Tarsney of Missouri, is
noted. among southern women for
her skill in the political field. If
there is a voter in Mr.. Tarsney's dis
trict whom she hasn't some knowl-
edge of, then he must have just
moved in. She is skilled in all the
lore Of delegates, primaries and con
ventions, and very unimportant
must convention be if Mrs. Tars-
ney isn't apprised of the result with
in a few hours. or as soon as the
news can be sent to Washington.
She is as near born politician" as
a woman can be, for her father was
one of Missouri's famous judges and
leaders. One of Mrs. Tarsney's ear
lest memories is of being dressed
in butternut dress mounted on
horse before her father, who rode at
the head of the procession, given a
flag and told to hurrah for "Old
Hickory" And she's been con-
lirmed democrat ever since. She is
Jealous church woman and very
kind hearted. The great sorrow of
her life is the loss of all children,
especially a boy named after it's
father. Now she has tender spot
for fatherless or motherless boys,
and generally has some protege
oftener two, on the roll of congress
as messengers and pages, while they
manage to get a good education.
They are always from Missouri, and
while they are in Washington Mrs.
Tarsney keeps an eye on them like a
mother, usually having them live at
the hotel with herself and husband.
More than one Missouri boy owes
his start in life to Mrs. Tarsney's
grief for the loss Of her own boys.
Rev. Anna Shaw, who is the talk
ing ch ampion of woman suffragists,
and with Kate Field leads the ranks
of American women orators, is a
self made woman. She educated her
self for the ministry. Few who
know her as the vice-president of
the national woman suifragists and
as Il minister are aware that she is
also fitted TO take place in the ranks
Of another profession. As well as
being minister, she studied medi-
cine and could practice if her elo-
quence and gift of tongue ever fail

the only woman whom all Kansas
men, whether friends or foes to the
woman's movement, smile at, APP

language, just what we Americans
are, and what we intend to accom-
plish if possible. In the first place
we want to steal this country in the
name of annexation but we had
much rather have Uncle Sam raise
protectorate, and keep us in power
as at present, say for eight or ten
years. We Americans came to Ha-
waii-some for our country's good,
some because we were of no account
in our own country-but thinking
we might be of some account among
the simple Hawaiians- Some of us
deserted from ships aud received en-
couragement from the p. G. to play
soldier. The truth is we are conglom-
Grated nest of Americans, who care
no more for the Stars and Stripes
than we do for the man in the moon,
if we thought we could run this
country to suit ourselves, without
the aid of Uncle Sam. To speak
more plainly, Mr.. Minister, we be-
lieve that every mothers son of our
coercion Americans from the mis-
sionaries up, has more or less of
something of the stuff in their COM
position and general makeup that
Kidd the pirate was manufactured
from. Some will pray and shout
glory hallelujah until they are

words from morning till night, but
the principle is about the same with
all-when it comes TO trading horses.
