But add together all the little

In consumption, as in other

the accumulation of many

gain in weight each day-if

to something.
The fact that SCOTS Emul-

affairs in the Philippines.
"You can't stop the revolution in the
Philippines unless you take the severest
measures" said Major Waller. "You

fearful condition in which we found
some of the bodies of men under my

The committee, therefore, recon-
mends an honest system of promotion

The report plainly hints that officers
can hardly be expected to work SO long
as the present system of advancement
through social influence, is in vogue, OF
50 long as efficiency has nothing what
ever to do with the selection of officers
for desirable appointments.
The committee recommends, among
other things, that more commissions be
offered to the colonies and that officers
be compelled to know either French OF
German.

CAUSTIC CRITICISM OF BRIT
ISH MILITARY SYSTEM.
Report Based On the Testimony
of the Men Themselves-Lack-
ing In Energy and Education
No Incentive For Good Work
Teaching System-Reforms Sug-
geSted.

The report of the committee on milit-
ary education and training issued by
the English authorities furnishes the
strongest official corroboration of the
inefficiency of the officers of the British
army. The committees report, which
is based on the evidence of the officers
themselves, from the commander in
chief down, fills forty-eight printed
pages with cauStic criticism of the exist.
ing system. The witnesses were una
nimous in saying that the junior officers
were lamentably deficient in military
knowledge, the desire to acquire knowl
edge, and in zeal. The committee finds
that the young officers will not work
unless compelled to do so that "keen.
ness is out of fashion" and that it is
not correct form" The committee de-
clares than many officers do not possess
common elementary education, and
plaintively protests that officers ought
"at least to be able to express themsel-
YES clearly and concisely in their own
language The report condemns the
systems of both Woolwich and Sand
hurst, where education is "far from sa-
tisfactory,, the instructors having no
inducement to teach the cadets, still less
to work"
With the view of diminishing the ex-
penses of officers belonging to cavalry
regiments, the report recommends that
polo tournaments, regimental coaches
and keeping hounds be forbidden. Per
haps he penultimate paragrah is the
most important of all. $50 long as
mediocrity is permitted to pass muster,
says the committee, "and signal ability
meets with no substantial recognition,
is useless to hope for any valuable

IOWA CROP REPORT.
Weekly Bulletin Issued by the
Weather Bureau.
DIES MONIES, IOWA, Aug. 10.

DEs MONIES, IOWA, Aug. IL.
The daily average temperature of
the past week was two TO three de-
grees below normal. The amount of
sunshine was about normal and the
rainfall was light, except heavy local
showers in the southern and eastern
districrs. In the larger part of the
state conditions have been favorable
for stacking and threshing, and for
the advancement OF growing crops.
Variable reports as to yield of wheat
and barley are received, the larger
number being fairly satisfactory
Winter wheat is generally much above
the average. Spring wheat is show
ing best yield in northwestern coun-
ties. Many returns of exceptionally
largo yields of oats are offset by re-
ports of shortage in amount and poor
quality in sections where damage by
floods was greatest.
The corn crop is doing well, and in
about three-fourths of the area plant
ed the yield will be unusually heavy
if normal weather prevails during the
balance OF the season.
Potatoes and the minor crops are
promising5a large output.

10 AS A HOUSE SERVANT.
Indian boys and Girls Have of Late
Been Taking to Homework
in the West

Indian schools all over the south
summer, and the students are being
employed very rapidly by those who
keep servants. The Indian boys make
excellent cooks, while an Indian girl,
once trained, is fine maid of all work,
a modish hairdresser and endowed
picturesque when combined with
few civilizd touches. The system of
training now bestowed upon the red
children at school teaches them to be-
come servile to their superior-the
paleface, and the present generation
in training have become so accus-
toned to serving their paleface teach
ers that they are more than willing
to enter the household as servants.
Herein may lie the solution of the
servant-girl question--for time, at
least. says a western exchange.
Indian youths are strong, agile, and
if brought up by the right kind of
methods, are perfectly willing to work.
They are healthy and quick of limb.
This makes an excellent combination
for servant. Statistics of the Indian
taken recently show that of the $4,000
workers among the various tribes,
1900 of them are employed as helpers
in the houses of palefaces. You never
see the Indian servant at his or her
best until you visit the home of an old
Indian agent on one of the reserva-
tions.

WAS ENTITLED TO A SEAT.
Youthful Newspaper Vender Asserts
His Right and Fools Pussy
Passenger.

The other day on an elevated train
in New York small boy stood before
a huge pile of newspapers that occu-
pied one of the seats. He was sorting
them and dropping package upon
each station as it was reached for the
news stand located there. The car
was crowded and seats at a premium.
A fussy old man watched the boy for
a time. Then he touched him on the
shoulder and said in loud and AFRO
giant manner "See here, my son,
what right have you to keep those pa
pers on that seat when passengers are
compelled to stand up?"
The boy looked up and politely said:
"Do you object to my having those
papers on the seat?"
81 certainly do" said the man. 81
have paid my fare and have right to
sit down."
The boy carefully removed his pile
of papers from the seat to the, floor a
small bundle at time. The protest
ing passenger stood in an expectantat-
titude; the spectators looked on with
absorbed attention.
When the seat was empty the boy
turned about and sat down. Looking
up at the man he said, quietly: "IpaidI
my fare, too, and guess this seat be-
longs to me-"
