WISE WORDS.

In our neighbor we should observe
only what is good.
Independence, like honor, is a rocky
island without a beach.
Gratitude is feeling in which we
may freely indulge without any fear of
excess.
Thou wilt always rejoice in the
evening if thou hast spent the day
proftably.
Be courageous. Be Independent.
Only remember where the true cour'
age and independence come from.
Life is to be fortified by many
friendships. To love and to be loved
is the greatest happiness of exist
ence.
What are the aims which are at the
same time duties? They are the per-
fecting of ourselves and the happiness
of others.
Think of the ills from which you
are exempt and it will aid you to
bear patiently those which you may
now suffer.
Few of us gain by the mistakes of
others. but he who fails to profit by
his own mistakes will soon be bank
rupt in knowledge.
Courtesy is the passport to success.
We double the power of our life when
we add to its gifts unfailing courtesy.
The world always begrudges room to
boor.
That friendship only is indeed
genuine when two friends, without
speaking word to each other, can
nevertheless find happiness in being
together.
The keenness of life in this atmos.
phere of lovo and power is unimagin.
able to those who have never tasted
it's sweetness. 10 experience it fully
is to be alive indeed.
1t is perfectly safe proposition
that without the thoughtfulness, which
is otherwise named tact, no one can
find the fullest measure OF success
and pleasure in life.
You cannot think the buckling on
of the knights armor by his lady,
hand was mere caprice of romantic
fashion. 1t is the type of an eternal
truth-that the souls armor is never
we'll set to tho heart unless woman 8
hand has braced it.
The heart that, has passed through
the deep waters of tribulation is the
most tender; the voice that has itself
cried with pain is the most gentle;
the hand that has suffered is the
most soothing ministrant in the
chamber of sorrow. The best sym
pathizer is one who has been par
taker in the same sufferings.

Value of Pictures,

Pictures do more toward furnishing
house and determining the status OF
Its inmates than anything else. If you
have suspicion that you are not wise
In choosing and hanging pictures, get
advice from someone whose taste need
mot be questioned, says the Pittsburs
Dispatch. Cheap pictures are not nee
essarily poor, but a poor picture is
usually cheap. To be able to discern
the difference DIS quality with which
every one is not blessed. A good plan
Is to purchase copies of famous pic
tures, etchings and engravings. These
are almost sure to be good. In franz
ing pictures remember that gold
frames are for oil paintings and dark
pictures, white frames for water col
ors, and black enamel or Flemish oak
and modern oak for etchings and
photographs.

vegetable diet of the klamath Indians.
A novel variety of food forming
menu unknown to the civilized is
offered in the pulp of the great yellow
water lily, which is converted into a
farinaceous food; in the weed known
as goosefoot, which bears black seed
that is ground up for loaves and cakes.
and in the arrowhead, which in the
fall develops a starchy white tuber at
the end OF the roots, not to mention
the tubers that resemble beets, tur-
nips and carrots, the nuts that are
ground into "coffee' and the flower
leaves that furnish fairy-like desserts.
The tanning of wild fruits is another
branch of the food agents business.
Mr. Augustus Henry, who is authority
on Chinese flora, states that there are
at least one hundred varieties of fruits
growing wild in the interior of China
that if transplanted to another soil
and properly cultivated, would prove
as important food supply as our
present necessary apple and pear.
The lie Conte pear, which has revolu-
tionized pear growing in Southern
California, was originally the Chinese
sand pear, grown solely for ornamen-
tai purposes.

An Unlucky Patient.

G. E. Brueus, prominent Turner
County cattleman, is the victim of a
strange series of accidents. While
working around the railroad cattle
pens at Viborg, S. D., he had his foot
injured to such an extent as to render
the use of crutches necessary in get
ting about. A short time afterward,
while sitting in the office of a. -Viborg
hotel musing on his hard luck, an
acetylene gas tank in the basement
directly under him exploded, throwing
him several feet into the air. In fall
ing he again injured his damaged foot.
Later Or. Stidworthy attempted to
get the unlucky stockmans mind off
his misfortunes by inviting him to ac-
company him on drive. Before they
had gone very far the horses became
frightened and ran away, breaking
the neck-yoke and causing the pole Of
the vehicle to drop. Bruens jumped
for his life, and again injured his dis.
abled foot, besides bruising his limb
and shoulder.

Ostrich Spoiled His Speech.

Anybody who heard Senator Allen
of Nebraska, deliver his famous fif-
teen-hour speech against the bill for
the repeal of the Sherman silver bill
would hardly believe that anything
coud stump him. Yet there is an ex-
perience in the senator's life which
shows that, after all, he is like unto
other mortals, says the Washington
Post. Il was campaigning in my
state once" said the senator, when ]
had occasion to speak at a fair

and the occasion seemed to be full OF
promise for an orator overaowing as

had commenced man brought out an
ostrich hftched to a sulky. don't
know whether you ever saw the trot-
ting ostrich in the east, but out west
he was great attraction. Well. as
soon as that bird began to run around
the track l wasn't in it. The ostrich
monopolized the attention of every
man, woman and child. When the
bird stopped the people listened to me-
but when he threw out his long legs
again there was roar of laughter and
applause which drowned every word I
uttered. Finally, l gave it up. l let
the trotting ostrich have everything
his own way"

People in the vicinity of Dresser,
Ind, are much disturbed by the
presence of wildcat, which has
killed score of lambs, calves and
hogs. The other night party of
hunters, with thirty dogs, gave chase
to the animal, locating it three miles
west of Dresser, and chasing the ami
NAL for half mile from tree to tree.
The cat finally descended and killed
and crippled twenty dogs, after which
it again sought fight and distanced
pursuit.

WHERE WE GOT THEM.

Oats, barley and rye originated in
wild forms along the Mediterranean.
The first noted species of wheat were
brought from Persia. The common
garden bean traces it's ancestry back
of the landing of the Pilgrims to an
early aboriginal state in the Andes
The Orient furnished us with melons,
cucumbers and onions. Egg plant
and tomatoes were discovered in Peru.
Ounces, pears, currants and large
white grapes in Europe. While the
most common of our vegetables, celery,
lettuce, cabbage and spinach, were
transplanted from the shores of the
Mediterranean.
If these important features of our
daily food supply have all found their
way to us from foreign lands, it seems
but q question of sufficient search
throughout the world to increase the
store until all possibility of food
famine in future ages is rendered in
conceivable.
One point that is being strongly
brought out by the Government is
that many things once considered wild
and poisonous and many that are still
looked down upon as weeds are health
giving products and should be ranked
as a portion of the reserve food sup
ply. Indeed, the Bureau has selected
seventeen of the most ordinary weeds
and has issued pamphlet extolling
their virtues as available, healthful
foods. In the list are found dock, the
mashed marigold, mercury, black char
lock, commonly held as poisonous;
chicory, pokeweed, also regarded as
a poison; purslane, for which the
farmer inherits his dislike, and the
despised nettle.

assuring news in the fact that the re-
serve food supply of the world has
been declared inexhaustible.
The Department of Agriculture at
Washington is authority for this COM
forting piece of information. For
some time past it has been carefully
and Systematically investigating the
food stock in trade of nearly every
country on the globe.
Agents who are food students have
been sent out to China, Peru, Persia,
Mexico, everywhere to the remotest
ends of the earth for the purpose Of
finding out what the new or neglected
food products are, their value as a
nutritious diet, and the extent to
which they can be used to lengthen
the menu of the civilized cook.
Some very interesting and startling
facts are being handed in through the
reports that cover the food question
from New England to the Philippines,
from Mexico to the heart of the Mon
golian Empire.
1t has been discovered:

While dozen vegetables cover the
limit of variety on the average table,
the earth is growing hundreds of kinds
that are nutritious, delicious and easy
to cultivate.
That single wild tribe of Western
Indians is using forty-one kinds d
vegetables which are absolutely un
known, even to the chef who draws c
salary as large as that of United
States Senator.
DowNTRoDDEN WEEDS ARE EDIBLE.
An endless variety of downtrodder
weeds can be converted into whole
some, succulent garden truck.
Even the much maligned nettle has
the latent qualities of delicious en-
tremets.
Especially interesting are the facts
furnished by the nut specialists
There is no product that requires SC
little cultivation as the nut, and none
is more wholesome Jas food staple
An orchard of two thousand trees in
California yields every year over TWEEN
ty-four thousand pounds of hulled
nuts.
Already the commercial mind has
seized upon the enormous profits to
accrue from the sale of various prep
arations of nuts, and at least ten large
companies manufacture nothing but
nut foods.
The Government is making q spe-
cial point of recommending nut cul-
ture. In New England the abandoned
farms are being planted with nut
trees, and the worked out ground is
found to furnish nourishment enough
to cause the walnut, butternut and
chestnut to flourish abundantly
Farms In nearly every MOI theastern
State are planting nut trees along
with their peaches and pears, and are
utilizing the hillsides where nothing
else will grow for nut orchards.
In the past the objection to nuts as
food has been that they were deemed
hard to digest, but, with the new
methods of preparing and cooking
them, they are rendered as healthfu
as they are palatable, even in Amer.
lea, where good digestion does not in,
variably wait on appetite.
