Poor Farm.

The county commissioners have final
ly bought one hundred acres Of the
Hutchison farm, which joins the Nc
Connell farm, bought three or four
months ago for county poor farm.
The commissioners have been negotia-
ting several months for the Hutchison
farm, but it Was in the hands Of heirs
and they wanted clear title, which
was finally secured through Ex-Sheriff
d. G. Gourley, who purchased the farm
for 81, 100 and transferred it to the com
missioners for same price. This gives
the county two hundred acres for poor
farm at cost of Sl2,l00, as the Nc
Connell farm cost $1,000. The contract
for erection Of large building on poor
/ farm will be let in few days.

ing to be bothered with home folks
all the time. So while Miss - is
riding to the picnic in her fathers
own buggy, the daughter who has
helped to earn it is left in the kitchen
cooking. This is often the case, and
what is the result? Why, the sister
finding no companion at home, and
finding that other girls enjoy more
privileges than herself, becomes tired
of remaining in that dull household
and marries at the first opportunity,
never thinking of what she is doing.
If the husband proves worthless, as
they often do, the girl is ruined for
life on account of the thoughtless-
ness of her brother.
I have often heard girls say when
their brothers treated them in the
way described, that they could not
make their condition any wor who
ever they married. Yes, but some
have found out.
Some boys think other boys will
take their sisters to such places.
Some do others do not. Yet those
that accompany other boys had
much rather accompany their broth
er. When a brother offers to accom-
pany a sister anywhere she feels like
there is something to live for and
that some one cares for her enjoy
ment. When a boy takes his sister
to all places of interest to which he
goes, she feels that hers is a happy
home and will remain in it much
longer, not caring to marry the first
boy that comes along.
Boys, try my plan with your sister
and report success.
Yes, Ellen, l am really bashful. I
don't like to meet strangers and car
hardly bear teasing. I know neither
you nor Nash Chap enjoyed my let
ter more than I did yours. Many
thanks to both for speaking we'll
of it.
With much love,
BASHFUL SUE.

A GOVERNMENT THAT DOES ALMOST
EVERYTHING.

In most cases in which the govern
ment has lost money in the past the
fault has been the same as that
which existed in Cuba. Political
~favorites were placed in important
offices and were not sufficiently
watched. In Cuba, of course, it was
almost like starting a new govern
ment. Possibly it may be that way
in the Philippies, but it is quite
probable that the supervision will be
so strict that every dollar will be
accounted for.
The great fact is that we now have
assurance of honesty in every de-.
partment of the government.
But what is most interesting is the
almost incredible multiplication of
duties and responsibilities which this
government has taken. When it
began it could not even attend to its
own bills for it's running expenses
now it is doing almost everything
under the sun, and in the earth be-
meath, from running saloons for the
soldiers to furnishing religion for
the same, from watching potato-bugs
to watching the stars, from correct
spelling to every form of statesman
ship and for all this it is employing
more people than all the soldiers
who fought in the Revolutionary
War.
We are rapidly approaching an ex-
penditure of two million dollars a
day, including Sundays, and the fact
that this enormous amount, divided
up into tens of thousands of accounts
and items, is handled safely is a won
derfu tribute to the system and per-
sonnet of the government. The only
consolation for the shameful rob
berries in Cuba is that they could not
have occurred in the post-omce man
agement of this country.-Saturdoy
