The Owed Living

IL Is an old saw that the world
owes every man a living. There are
many maxims to the effect that the
righteous shall be fed, that the wise
shall be honored, that the dilieent
shall prosper, and the innocent shall!
lead peaceful life. But there is
no accepted principle that the idle
and indifferent shall be provided for.
On the contrary we are told that the
idle soul shall suffer hunger. and
that If man will not work, neither
shall he eat.
All sorts of privations and discom
forts and puuishments come upon
sloth. The Almighty, that put man
on earth, made him lord of it, hav-
ing hrst stored aud adapted il for
the nourishment aud comfort of all
that should spring from the first of
his kind. Bat the first order that
came TO MS, as we are, was: BY the
sweat of thy face thou shalt eat thy
bread. And the man that claims
that the world owes him living
had best understand that he must
sweat for it. And be that believes
that the world owes him q living
whether he earns It or not will soon
be familiar with starvation and
death.
Activity is life. And the neces
sary punishment of inactivity and
sloth Is degenerucy, disease aud stu.
pefactiOn.
The world is provided, amply, for
every being on it, And opportuni
ties are before all. But the very ex
lStence of manhood and life aud the
enjoyment of things require from us
just and wise Use and appropriation.
A mere idle consumer. that rend
ers nothing for what be gets. goes to
nothing; loses that which he seems to
have. Rich. News.

COUNTY WILL NOT Pay
Commissioners Take Action Concern
ing Expenses Incurred In Caring
for Smallpox PatiPntS.

| The enormous expense which the
care of parties afflicted and quaran-
tined with the smallpox and the
strong probability that the disease
will be worse the coming winter than
the past has led the County Commits
siOners to take steps to cut down any
unnecessary expense in he future.
They have formulated a set of instruc-
tions for the guidance of the different
township trustees and next winter
there will be some unanimity of action.
This move will meet with general fav-
or. The instructions in full follows:
TO THE TOWNSHIP TRUSTEES or AL
LEN COUNTY, KANSAS:
1t is the history of smallpox that
the disease sometimes appears in worse
form the second year than the first.
The disease this year has cost Allen
County about three thousand dollars.
In order to avoid this enormous eX-
pense in the future we think it neces-
sary to give the trustees some instruc-
tions concerning the handling of pa
tients afflicted with any contagious or
infectious diseases.
In the future township trustees will
be very careful in extending the
County's credit to parties afflicted with
any contagious or infectious diseases.
In all cases where the patient is able
To support himself then the County is
not liable for any grocery bills, doc
tor bills or any other billsincnrred by
reason of his sickness: and where par
ties are afflicted with any OF said di-
seases the trustee, before extending
the County's credit in the way of fur
nishing medicine, nurse hire, or gro
ceries or other provisions, should
thoroughly investigate and ascertain
If the party is absolutely unable to
support himself. We make it Il rule
that in the future all persons afflicted
with SMALLPOX must be at once trans
| ferred, under the direction of the
! County health officer. to the County
Small-PoX Hospital and in CAGES
where parties refuse to be so trans
| ported they must be seG-supporting
because in such cases the County will
not make itself liable for any provis-
/ ions, medicine, nurse hire or anything
else. furnished such patients. In no
case viii the County be liable for fur
niture, bedding or for rent, unless fur
nished under the direction of the
County Health Officer and then only
such as is absolutely necessary for
he proper care of the patient.

Mrs. Clara Moore Davis died at

Readers of the REGISTER will rem
ember the tragic death of Mr. Davis
some weeks ago, caused by the acct
dental discharge of gun while on a
pleasure trip with his wife i'm Oregon.
The nervous shock of the terrible oc-
currence upon Mrs. Davis was very
severe and she never recovered from
it, Eversince returning to herfather' 5
home she has been very i'll, and when
her child was born she had not
strength enough left to rally.
Mrs. Davis was very attractive
woman Ii sweet singer, with manners
disposition and address that made it,
easy for her to win and hold friends.
The pathetic ending of the life which a
year ago promised so much JOY, for
others as well as for herself. makes
one of the saddest chapters in the
history Of lola and it's people that the
REGISTER has ever been called upon
to record.
