The West Shows Its
 Teeth. te
Eastern Leaders in the Future may be Less Arrogant.

The defeat of the great River and Harbor Bill, carrying its $50, 100000 of appropriation, has caused no little bitterness oi spirit among those:who had favor ed the resulting improvements to the various rivers, creeks, and harbors included. in the bill.
 The suggestion has been made that Eastern men who have been favorably disposed to the irriga- tlon measures proposed by the West will be a1ienated therefrom by this method, which has been denounced as dog-in-the-manag- CT policy on the part of Senator Carter, who held the floor of the Senate for the last twelve hours of its session, and thus prevented the passage of the bill, because, they says the House refused to allow the irrigation amendments. Senator Carter expressly stated that he undertook the defeat of the measure without any motive of revenge, but because he be- lieved 1t to be his patriotic duty to work his utmost to prevent such wasteful and extravagant expenditures, and to draw the line against such abuse as had crept into a policy of national improve ment.
 That the River and Harbor Bills, which have come to be gen. erally known as "Government pork bi1ls," have grown to be out rageous extravagances, is we'll recognized, and it is probable that the defeat of this measure will be a warning to Congress to in future eliminate these ridiculous so-called nation al aids to navagation where a channel to be improved starts with only six inches of water Gas was the case in one instance in the defeated bi1l) and to frame the bills on the lines of improve ment to the great harbors and waterways which really affect the whole United States, and at the same time to recognize the sentiment of the country, which demands that the great arid area of the West, lying like a vast fortune in trust, shall be develop ed and made to contribute it's AAare to the national wealth.

His Aim I'm Life

People bother little boys so! All the
tourists to ais island home used to
ask this one: What are you going
to be, boy? what are you going to
be?' and the boy had patiently replied
at every interruption of his important
undertakings: Il am going to be q
sailor and climb the masts."
Last summer he took an ocean voy-
age and was very seasick, and the
third day his father asked: What
are you going TO be, boy? what are
you going to be-"
Il am not going TO be n sailor and
climb the masts," he replied. 81 am
Going to be q soldier and shoot can

big uncle took the boy to see n
famous cyclorama. where the smoke
and carnage and realistic dead bodies
in the foreground shattered another of
his ambitions TO the teasing quos-
ton. What are you going to be. boy !?
what are you going to be-" came the
answer in a burst OF confidence:
Il am not going to be a sailor and
climb the masts. l am not going to
be 4 soldier and shoot cannon. ] am
going to be q bachelor and marry

Uses of Olive Oil.

No household where there are chill
dren should be without olive oil, for IT
is an invaluable medicine in certain
cases. For a weakly or rickety child
or one who is recovering from typhoid
fever salad oil will sometimes work
wonders. The plan is to rub in the
oil over the whole of the child's body.
especially about the upper part. tax.
ing n few drops at a time into the
palm of the hand. The nourishment
thus absorbed through the skin will be
Oh immense service in building up the
chllds strength. When a child is suf
Iering from severe cold it is n good
plan to omit the daily bath and TO rub
the back and chest with olive oil. To
insure no further cold being caught
the child should be wrapped in n blan-
ket and carefully screened from drafts
while the rubbing is being done. A
threatening of Group often will end in
threatening only if the oil and cam

The method is to saturate a piece OF
nannel, sprinkle it with little pow
uered camphor and apply it to the
chest and throat as warm as it can
be borne. Cover with 4 riece of drv
flannel and change as soon as ii Gets

Hints For Mrs. Just-N7arriea.

a meal should never be announced
until everything is in readiness.
The coffee should be served very hot
and with hot milk.
The glasses should be freshly filed
with. clear cold water
The dining room should be in Der.
ttect order before breakfast is served.
Ihe plates should be properly heated
and placed before the carver.
The butter should be kept In the re-
frigerator until the last minute in
summer, but kept where it will be soft
enough to spread in winter
The table should always be so kept
as to be ready for a guest with but q
moments notice.
a cotton flannel silence cloth" net
only makes the tablecloth lcol, in6,-
itely handsomer, but preserves tho
vanished surface from stains from hot
dishes.
a polished table if used must be
spotless; it is therefore not desirable
for every day use, as there is too much
work involved in keeping it in order
q sufficient number Of knives. forks
ana spoons should be placed on the
table so that nothing need be called for
after the family are seated.

ately warm both for washing and rims
