irrigation and immigration.

San Jose Mercury:-When the Presi-
dent said in New Mexico that irrigation
meant immigration he struck respon-
sive chord in the breasts of Western
people. We have paid out an enormous
sum for our outside expansion the past
three years and shall have to pay out
more yet. We have borne the burdens
of expansion with scarcely n knowl-
edge that burden existed. To pro-
vide for home expansion by irrigation
of the arid lands of the West would en-
tail no burden whatever, The sum re-
quired would scarcely make an appre-
ciable difference in the annual exp penses
of the government.
For years we have been appropriate
ing vast sums ofmoney upon the theory
that the improvement ofrivers and hor-
bors is natural and proper task for the
government. There is just as much
reason for the government to render
habitable and productive its millions of
acres of waste land. We are dyking

have been expended to keep thut way
ward stream within its natural chan
mel. To be sure this has been and is be-
inglone on the theory that it is nec-
cessary for the improvement of naviga-
ton, yet every intelligent citizen
knows that the real object sought is
the protection of the adjacent lands
from overflow. The Mercury recog-
nizes this as a perfectly proper object
of government expenditure, as it does
also its kindred work of making pro-
tductive the waste lands of the West.
1t also recognizes the fact that in a
measure both objects might be secured
by new plan of operation, that Of
building immense impounding reser-
voirs at the headwaters of the streams

How II Started.

The time Of the year having arrived
for the base ball fever to get in its work
many will be interested to know the
origin of the national sport. An cx-
change briefly complies its history
thusly: The devil was the first coach
er. He coached Eve to take first.
Adam stole second. When Isaac met
Rebecca at the well she was walking
with n pitcher. Samson struck out
many times when he beat the Philis-
tines. Moses made his first run when
he slew the Egyptian. Cain made a
base hit when he killed Abel. Abra.
ham made sacrifice. The prodigal
son made home run. Moses shut out
the Egyptians at the Red Sea. The
game was called when the flood came
on account of the wet grounds and
Noah had all the rain checks.

NERVE WASTE

One of the most helpful books en

titled "Nerve Waste" by DR.. Sawyer,
Of San Francisco, now ~ its qfth thou

which prevails on this interesting sub

two great merits Of wisdom and sim
cerity.
1t is endorsed by both the religious

The practice of many manufacturing
firms of giving prizes with cocoanut,
coffee, soap and various other articles
put up in packages, for so many pack
ages purchased, has grown to such an
extent that you can seldom buy any
thing that hasn't prize in some way
attached to it. The price of the goods
referred to is generally about the same
as formerly, but the amount of printed
matter in each package reduces the
quantity of useful contents to an extent
that raises the price on an average Of
about 10 per cent. 1t is question if a
box or package of the same goods would
not find a more ready sale if the prize
and printed matter regarding it were
left out and the package filled to its
full capacity. Then, too, it is ques-
ton if the postal laws are not violated
when the prizes are sent through the
mails. In any event the prizes should
be abolished and people given their
moneys worth when they buy pack
aye of goods.

Dyspeptics cannot live long because to
live requires nourishment. Food is not
nourishing until 1t is digested. A disor-

A Hunch FROM Her Little Brother.

(James Barton Adams in Denver Post. J
So, you're goin' to marry my sister!
She told us about it last night,
And said II you wasn't SO handsome
You was otherwise jest about right.
Ma looked sort o wild fur minute
guess s5G was thinkin' of you-
But pa only said that he reckoned
Twas mebbe the best she could do.
She give us sort of a sample
OF what you've bin sayin' to her,
OF love fiowin' deep as the ocean
An heavens that never'd blur.
OF how you believed her an angel
Jest loaned to the earth from the sky,
But pa said she oughtn't TO worry
You'd git over all that by an by.
An, say now, she amt bad fellow
AS long as we let her be boss,
'Cept when she gifts up in the mornin'
She's apt to be snappy an cross.
l reckon she's told you bout Harry
That give her the diamond ring,
An how when she found it was bogus
He got the elaborate fling?
Ma says she has heard you are flighty,
An somewhat inclined to be fast,
But mebbe that after you're married
You'll cut yourselfloose from the past,
Sis. says it's wild oats you are sowing,
But she will jest gamble her boots
That when you are cinched as her hus-
band
You'll quit agriculchul pursuits.
There's one thing I'll say fur my sister,
She never paints up fur q beau:
Jest rolls up her foretop in papers,
Fur frizzes become her, you know.
AM ma says regardip' her figger
She's lucky that she kin escape
A havin' dressmaker help her
Build up to presentable shape.

You're gon' to work double all right
She'll never kick over the traces
Ifthe marriage bandwagon runs light
Jest do the square thing an you'll find

But fyou-Say, cheese it! She's comm

At a reception in Cleveland, o., at
which John ID. Rockefeller was pres
ent, the Rev. Charles A. Eaton said
that his friendship could not be bought

Nerve Waste" by DIR. H. c. Sawyer
of San Francisco, Cal, is a book that
should be in every household. 1t
should be thoroughly studied by the
heads of every family and its wisdom
impaired to rising generations. 1t
gives information of practical benefit
to every man, woman and child and a
more thorough understanding of its
teachings would relieve much of the
