Does This Hit Your

Have you ever thought how difficult
it was to find an unbrOken family?
Most of US are fragments of families
here and there struggling as best we
may. We. thing of father, mother
and relatives, now scattered like the
mistS of the morning. There is some
thing in this that makes US fcr1,
each others welfare when we become
separated. How often do We write To
a brother or sister?
We dare say if you sit down to count
the days, it has been months, and
perhaps years:
zisee il 2 year while a letter p+ase-
telling OF the old love, and asking to
be forgiven for not writing sooBer,
and then long silence.
A telegram is handed you, your fin
gers tremble as you tear open the eE-
velope: you read mother or sister dicd
on such day. You go away by your
self and shed few scaIding tears and
regret a thousand times your negIi-
gence TO bbe dear onces: 1t is nov
too late to do Better by that mother
or sister in the days to coae. This
great broad world gets too far aparf.

PAID FOR DOING NOTHING.
Qseer sineeures That the Thesry 81
Vested Rights Creates IA
England.

There are times when even a gev-
eminent department forgets all about
red tape and becomes mere human
thing, and when even the treasury
filings economy to the winds and be-
comes the soul of generosity. When,
in the reconstruction of departments,
somebody must go, the man to go.
though he loses his work. never loses
his salary. Thousands of people are
idle to-day, says ST. James Gazette,
through the operation eff new laws
or through administrative changes
out of work, it may almost be said,
by act of parliament, but the govern.
ment's out-of-works are paid for doing
nothing.
1t is over a generation siRce the reg
istrar general decided to DO without
an indexer, but the man whs lost the
indexing work is still drawing nearly
= hundred pounds e year. In 1885 the
home office found that it could dis
pense with the schooinester at Worm
wood Scrubs, and the gentleman who
had held the ofnee up to that time
has received e1s4 year since. And
when the foreign office found, in 1883,
that ii could dispense With a, trans
lator, it gave its translator e176 q
year not to translate. There 10 no
limit to the PeAsioned cut-of-works
of the government; huBdPeds of thou
sands of pounds are paid away every
year to people who do not lift finger
to earn it. They may have sat on gov
eminent stools years and years ago.
They may have cooked prison food at
Dartmoor; they may have been judges
In some little corner of the empire
which no longer wants them; they
may have been houaekeePers, lauR-
dresses, jailers, laborers, chaplaiHs,
governors, consuls, ambassadors. 1t
makes no difference; q generous gov
eminent compensates them all.
There is an old man somewhere who
years ago collected toll on Chelsea
bridge and who, because there are no
longer tolls to collect, receives check
for Ell year from the Iind-hearted
empty away. He has g friend IN the
aeld laborer who has received 1914
guineas year for a quarter OF cen
fury because the official surveyors OF
the United Kingdom have nothing
more for him to DO; and the ex-serv.
ants of the crown include cook at
Broadmoor, who costs the taxpayers
e 10 a year. The board of works gives
e 800 year to an out-of-work clerk
in the stationery Office; the colonial
Office has been paying an ex~storekeep-
er AT ST. Helena e As year since 1884,
and the foreign Office has on its list
a out-of-worb jailer at Yokohama
and an out-of-work consul at st.
Petersburg who between them draw

So Temnerance inc

The annual convention of the State
Temperance Union will be held in
Topeka. May 9Th. and 9th. Careful
preparation is being made to insure =
good meeting. Many of the most able
speakers Of the state will take part in
the proceedings. The object aimed
at in the program is to discuss the
specific kinds of violation of the liq-
uor law, with a view to determining
the best means for overcoming them.
Among the particular evils to be
handled are the club room evil, the
liquor drummer evil, and the c. o. d.
evil. Other questions of interest will
also be treated.
This convention is to be composed
as usual Of delegates from churches,
Sunday schools, Young Peoples So
cieties, and temperance organizations.
The State Temperance Union has
for many years taken a leading part
in the enforcement of the prohibitory
law, in securing temperance legiSla-
ton, and in cultivating healthy
temperance sentiment. It's annual

ant general meetings held in the state.

Funston on AssassIns.

Gen. Funston makes a striking COM
ment on the republican party in Ken
lucky in his remark, "there is no more
war in the Philippines than there Is
in Kentucky. ASsaSSins Turk ia the
cane and shoot down men who are al
their mercy, but there is no soldiers
in the field to battle with the United
States troops" No doubt this is true.
It is very usually the truth as to the
weaker party in war where its MEM
bers are determined to fight on but
have not the force for pitched battle.
The situation is much the same as
that the British complain Of in South
Africa now.
But the comparison with the Ken
lucky asSaSSins seems unfair to the
Filipinos. These islanders maintain
some show of war. They are at least
openly hostile to such an extent that
an American soldier may reasonably
expect to get shot at when he gets in
range of the4. And they. are under
no obligation Of oath to preserve or
der and prevent lawless violence.
They are not officials of the Philip
pine islands who might reasonably be
expected to obey the laws, but open
enemies-rebelS if you like-who de-
ny the authority OF tne United States
and are fighting against it IS best
they may.
The Kentucky aSSaSsinS were OF an
entirely different character. They
were almost all under oath Of office to
support the constitution of the state
and aid in the enforcement OF the Law
from the state officials to the mem.
bers of the militia. They were stat
toned in public building, part OF
them In the performance of official
duties and part of them for the spec
ial purpose OF preserving lay and or.
der. 1t was from a window OF this
building that the shot was fired that
struck down the lawful governor OF
the state,
And it was Ia this building that
steps were Immediately taken for the
protection of the aSSassinS. 1t was
this building whose doors were Shut
against the civil officers by order of
the military dictators until the men
who fired the shot coald be concealed
or spirited away. 1t was in this build.
ing that the pretended governor hast
ened to issue pardons to all who would
probably and naturally be suspected
OF committing the crime. 1t was in
this building that funds were raised
to help away guilty parties, and that
plans were laid for assuring the safety
of the aSsassins. Gen. Funston really
owes an apology to the Filipinos. As

official character that it has among
the Kentucky republicans Indian

With the republicans in control OF
both the house of congress and senate
it would seem to most people that
there is little argument as to whether
the republican party is or is not re-
SponSible for the trusts and combine

laboring classes of America today.

fostered those barnacles, but has de-

j. E. Burton, you remember, wanted
to build up republican party in Kan
Sas like "they have in Iowa" Mr..
Burton's attention is called to the
fact that Iowa's republican senators
opposed that infamous steal known as
the ship subsidy bill, while he voted
for it. Maybe the way to build up a
strong party is to vote for every raid
on the treasury that is proposed, but
it doesn't seem to be the IOWA.

Although alwas an ecoaoRical feed
er, a good COW has no power to make
something out of nothing. On the
other hand, a poor COW can make
nothing out of something and not half
try.
Butter should. be colored when need
ed and in all things do the best posi-
BILE to satisfy the!demands of dealers
and customers for fine quality of

It is an old saying that ''well-fed is
half-bred." This is eminently true of
theI dairy COW. Very often the scrub
that is we'll fed makes better show
ing than the well-bred COW that is not
so well taken care of.
The advance made in dairy science
during the last few years is wonderful
and the future has still brighter
things in store for the up-to-date dairy

MR.
1t costs just as much to milk and
haul to the creamery 3per cent milk
as it doneS that which tests per cent
and as a rule the 3 per cent COW eats
just as much as does tAe one that gives
per cent milk. And ever 8 per
cent COW is above the average.
It is a great mistake to turn COWS
out Ga R&stgre too soon. When the
grass first starts it is stWgghy" and not
so nutritious as it is few days iateT,
Besides if the pasture is kept cropped
close from the start it yields less feed
during the season than it would if al
lowed to make little growth before
being run over.
The dairyman must meet the com
petition of everyone else in the mat
ter Of selling his products, The place
where ne eap make money is by reduc-I
ing the cost OF bis pilk. fEhis he can
do by keeping only good COWS and pro-
ducing only big crops with which to
feed them.
It is not mere sentiment that calls
for washing and scaIding a milk pail
or pan until its every crack is absolute
ly sterile, but, to the ever wise, GER
tain practical object, in yiew-viz., a
top price to be secured for future
butter, the crude material of which
must pass through that utensil.
: The man who keeps ten or more
COWS can well afford to build a silo.

can be produced on the farm. When !
fed with bran or gluten feed it makes

STARTS ON
FINAL CAMPAIGN

Willemstad, Curacao Aug. g.
President Castro of Venezuela left
Caracas Sunday to conduct a second
and what he believes will be the final
campaign against the revolutionists.
He will proceed to Charayave and
Qua with 3,1O0 men and expects to
meet enroute $500 men brought back
from La Victoria and Valencia The
revolutiOnists under General Mendoza
are at San Cashmere and those under
Matos are at Orituco. Their junction
is expected momentarily. In conse-
Guence OF the ineXplicable delay OF the
revolutionists in advancing, Castro
had had time to organize new armies
and is already as strong in numbers
as are the revolutionists. He eX-
Tects achievements OF 5000 men
from the Andes and Trujill0 states.
The only ADVANTAGE the revolution
lists have at present is that they have
in their ranks better military leaders.
Four million cartridges and 10000
mauser rifles were received by Castro
Saturday. Half were deposited in
Caracas and the others were sent to
Maraicaibo. This distribution is TAX
en- to be proof that if CastrO's forces
are beaten in the expected engage
ment and if the president can escape
he intends to prolong resistance and

Tension Gets StrongeratS Shenandoah

Shenandoah, Pa, Aug. 6.-The peace
Of this troop-protected town remains
unbroken. The unsettled feeling ap-
parent the last few days, however,
continues. 1t was a lively day at
brigade headquarters where all staff
officers were kept busy in connection
with the movements of troops and in
keeping in touch with the situation.
There are many rumOrs of trouble, but
excepting at Girardville, where
workman was shot and slightly in
jured, nothing of a serious nature oc-
Cured anywhere. Officers around
headquarters feel the tension is in
creasing and would not be surprised if
some troops were sent into the sur
rounding region. Probably the most
important development yesterday was
the arrest and commitment to jail of
two wounded Lithuanians who partic-
ipated in the riot last week. The ar
rest was attended with a considerable
show of military force, they being
taken into custody by constables who
were surrounded by a platoon Of in
fantrymen and were taken through
the streets under strong guard.
