THE COOP TIME COMING

The Writer has never known q tune
when it was SO difficult to hire work of
any kind done. 1t makes no difference
whether it is a house you want painted
or papered, ditch dug, a cord of wood
sawed or barn built it is almost i'm
possible to get it done at any price. It
is just so in the house-no girl to be
had to do homework or do a washing
or make dress. Is 1t possible that
we are coming to the time when no.
body will be compelled to work for 9th
CIR people? II so, what then? If every
one has to do his or her own work or
leave it undone. of what use will be
wealth? For one of the chief preroga-
tives of money is to be able to hire
some one to do your dirty work for
you. Personally we would like to sec
this time come and see the millionaire
currying his own horse and backing
his own boots, while madam had to dc
her own washing or go with dirty
duds. 1t is certainly poverty alone
which makes labor available and pur.
chasable and equally true that If ev.
erybody had enough to supply wants
nobody would work for any one else
1t may be well in view of the possible
advent Of such q condition for people
to simplify their mode Of living so as
to be independent of hired help.

OUR DAILY BREAD.

Americans are the best fed people on
earth. Living in country where crops
never fail, where climatic conditions
and variation of latitude and altitude
permit the growth of all known prod
ucts of the temperate and semitropical
zones. where science and knowledge
contribute to the best possible prepare
ton Of the earth's products for food. 1t
comes that no people on earth have so
much food and of SO good a quality
upon their daily bills Of fare. The Es-
kimo with his whale and walrus blub-
Der, the Scandinavian fisherman with
his diet of Goldfish. the Hun with his
black rye bread, Paddy with his pra-
ties and bonnyclabber, the italian
with his spaghetti. the Chinaman with
his rice, are each and all but poorly fed
and nourished, measured by the Ameri-
can standard. And because food Is so
plentiful it comes that in no other
country is SO much Of it wasted. Good
and abundant food has not little to
do with the progress and development
of race, and so we find that, besides
being the best fed people, the Americans
are also the most progressive nation of
the civilized world.

GREAT MEN NOT SOLDIERS.

From time immemorial it has been
the men who fought and won decisive
battles which were alone counted great
by their fellows. The worlds progress
has wrought change in this thing,
and, while the great general is not
without his need of honor, men in 9th
er pursuits than war share with him
the praise and appreciation of their
fellows The inventor, the scientist,
the philanthropist, the men who have
made the old world larger and better
in story and song, and, by unfolding
natures secrets, have opened up new
fields Of opportunity and labor are
numbered today among the worlds
great men. The men who developed
the Concord grape, tho Wealthy apple,
the navel orange, our improved breeds
Of stock, modern dairy methods and
transportation facilities have each and
oil done their country grand service
and are more worthy Of memorial in
bronze or marble than he who made
the earth run red with the blood Of his
fellow man.

HARD HEADS.

A boy reader Of these notes asks us
where the hard heads. which are
found in spots all through the prairie
regions Of the west, came from. These
masses Of granite, porphyry and schist,
wherever found, all show plainly the
wearing, grinding and smoothing effect
of glacial action. They are all wan.
derers from a far country and are part
and parcel of the granite backbone of
the country in the far north. Imbed.
ded in the Ice sheet which smoothed
down and formed the prairie region OF
the west they lie where they fell
when released by the heat Of the sun
and are literal tables Of stone re.
cording the history Of prehistoric days.

THE CHANCES IN THE DA-
kOTAS.

We are in receipt of inquiries from
the east by young men who wish to
know just what chances the Dakotas
offer for young man to make his way
in the world. 1t will do no harm to
state the exact truth about thin coun-
try, which is not always done in the
literature Of the land boomers and the
railway companies. The eastern part
of both these states is good agricultur-
al land, fine soil, productive of good
crops Of all the cereals and grasses
common to the northern latitude. Bor-
dering these agricultural lands on the
west lies strip Of territory running to
the Missouri river, where deficient
rainfall makes the growing of farm
crops more or less risky business;
beyond the Missouri 1t is too dry to
try to run farm in the ordinary way.
Throughout the whole of this scantily
watered region where lands are cheap
the growing of stock can be made an
exceedingly profitable business, for,
while provision has to be made for the
feeding and care Of the stock in the
winter, in time Of deep SHOWS and
storms. it is still the rule that the
snowfall is very light and that stock
will secure a good part of their living
from the nutritious native grasses even
in the coolest weather. We regard this
part of the Dakotas as the ideal sheep
country Of America, and believe that
If q young man is willing to rough it,
and knows how to properly care for
his flock, he can make himself indie
pendent in few years with flock of
sheep. What is true of sheep is also
true Of cattle; the range is large and
the grass very nutritious and stock of
all kinds is remarkably free from dis.
ease. The arabic part Of the Dakotas
is Just as fine as the lands of Minnesota
and Iowa, which they join, and while
now to be bought ut from $1S to So
per acre. are sure to advance in price
In the near future to $40 and $50 pei
acre. In the stock belt lands are much
cheaper Hundreds OF young and in.
dustrious men are making money
there, and there is plenty Of room fol-
more. In many respects it would be
better for q man to remain single if he
went into the stock business, as it is q
pretty lonesome country for an educat
ed and refined woman. 1t is lndispen.

His Last Invention.
It Failed Like the Rest to
Do Its Work.

Ralph Carbon strobe modify up and
down his workshop, which was Uttered
with the odds and ends of machinery
which represented the ruins Of hun
dred castles in the air. He was always
inventing, was Carbon; always spend
Ing days and nights over the manufac-
ture of some wonderful machine or 9TH
er which was to revolutionize the
world and make him famous, only to
find after all his labor some irremedia.
BILE flaw in his plan which rendered the
completion Of the machine an impossi-
bility or prevented it working.
He gazed around him on the gaunt
skeleton in wood and brass of past
hopes and clinched his hand flercely.
"A failure! Everything in my life is
miserable failurew he cried aloud as
he paced the floor.
1t was not the breakdown of an ordi-
nary invention, however, that wrung
the bitter words from him. He had
grown accustomed to waking in the
morning with an idea worth millions In
his head and going to bed at night with
the knowledge that 1t was not worth a
million match sticks and had become
quite philosophical over the failure of
his plans for money making. But this
time it was different arrangement
that had broken down. an arrangement
by which the inventor hoped to make
himself home and children, and the
handspring, in the shape Of Deborah
Dene, the woman he loved, had failed
him. In his clinched hand he held the
letter she had sent him abruptly an
| nouncing that she wished to break off
their engagement.
There was a revolver lying on the in
ventor's bench which had thrice had it's
bright barrel pointed toward his fore
| head, but three times the mans pur-
pose had failed him at the decisive mo-
ment.
The fact of his cowardice added to
the mans irritation against himself.
II fail in everything that would make
life worth living and cannot even kill
| myself" he went on in his despairing
soliloquy. Must everything I try
| prove failure?"
He took up the revolver once more
with sudden determination and, hold
ing the barrel between his teeth, pulled
the trigger. There was click, but
nothing more. He had forgotten, after
all. to load the thing.
He had failed. once more to kill him

Williams was then put under oath,

had shot himself while trying to hold

had been discharged by striking its

When the witness had sat down amid
a storm of Kisses from the rear of the
room and in the crowded hallway adj

"Your honor" he began, "the state
has not a shadow of a case, and want
to ask you to dismiss it, When think
how near came to using my efforts

The farmer Of 60 years of age makes
a great mistake, provided his health is
good. to get rid Of his farm and all
work and spend his remaining days
loafing around some town. Work is
just as indispensable to the happiness
and health of the man of 60 as it is to
thetboy of Is. OF course man at this
age should have earned the right and
privilege to do just what sort Of work
he likes best. For such man to con-
vert his assets into certificate of de-
post in some bank and have nothing
on earth to do but collect interest and
run for supervisor is bad mistake to
make.
