The Agricultural Department has I'm
dertaken a big job. 1t will try to re-
form the hog. 1t is the theory Of the
department that the hogs heart is in
the right place, that in his pristine con-
ditiOn he was Of exemplary habits, but
contended that the negligee appearance
Of the modern hog and his slouchy man.
ners are the result Of both heredity and
environment. For generations the hog
has been wallowing in his Owl con-
ceit and in other things. Gross appe-
titles and Il %slovenly toilet have caused
a loss of self-respect. The hog is to be
given another chance. The unfeeling
advice to root hog or die" is to give
way to altruiStic experiment. The hog
is to be rehabilitated. High-bred pigs
are to be put into clean surroundings
with all the accessories of q higher
standard Of porcine living. So far So
good. Unfortunately for the expert
ment, however, in one portion of the
Enclosure there is to be a sly Of the
fathers. with its swill and mud holes
and all the sordid enticements Of the
world, the flesh and the devil. 1t is the
theory Of the agricultural experts that
the hog under these new surroundings
and improved educational facilities will
eschew the mud and cleave to the high
er life. That is where the experts will
be disappointed. Is the hog superior
to Adam? And did not our %forefather
fall at the first temptation? AS the
Scripture saith, the SOW will return to
her wallow, and so will these cultivated
pigs. They are built that way. The
primitive hog may have been an intelli-
gent gentleman Of clearly instincts and
persuasive manners, but, like man, he
ate the apple and fell, and great was
the fall thereof. The cleanest hog in
America will backslide into the mud.

Russell Sage said a good thing the
other day. He had had a birthday, his
Seth, by the way, and he celebrated
it by doing a big days work as care
fully as he knew how. Some n asked
him to name mans best friend, and he
replied: Labor, toll, effort to do some
thing, and do il we'll" In other words,
Mr.. Sage believes in work for works
sake. He has had his nOSe to the grind
stone for GS years; he has practiced
what he breaches, and he asserts that
the idle man is seldom the contented
man: that the constant and continual
pursuit of pleasure tires the body,
wearies the soul and seldom brings
peace to the mind. That is true. The
carpenter works at his bench till age
forces him to lay down his tools, and
he yearns for the daily toll that has
become a part of himself. The best
men Of all crafts love their work, and 1t
is a love that lasts as long as they do.
Tell your Oldest employe that he is to
be retired because of age and you
thrust a knife into his heart. His labor
may o be a matter Of beef and bread.
Perhaps he can live out his few remain
ing days without working, but you have
taken from him his best friend, his
daily companion, the habit that insured
sleep and good digestion; that kept him
from worrying about a good many
things that couldn't be helped. There
is something about folly that brings its
W penalty; there is an element in ex-
tended disqualification that causes
unrest and mental disturbance. If we
were asked to describe the most miser-
able man in the world we would point
to one with plenty Of money and moth
ing to do; no place to fill, no mission to
serve; his only object to crafty his
own s~elishness. Russell Sage is right

Colorado Man is Explirting ;
Novel Theory of His Own.

Edgar Wallace Conable of Colorado
Springs, Colo, claims to have discov-
cred that the entire world has been liv
ing for centuries in ignorance of the
true secret of life, and he is now en-
deavoring to convert the people OF
this planet to his peculiar theory.
He asserts that man only Furnishes
his body by useing food, that the real
almentary diet is a dose of pure air
taken constantly. To insure good re-
turns from this diaphanous diet, he
says the lungs and breathing apparatus
have to be especially developed so that
the initiating capacity is almost doub-
led the present at normal. He has
tried the treatment himself for fifteen
days.
He has persuaded a number of his
sons to take on his views and try this
from practical application, and has
rented small cottage outside of town
where he domiciles his patients and
feeds them on the rarest cold air.

PREFERS THE JAIL.
Refreshing Tale of Laziness
Which Comes from Savannah.

Though he returns Savannah real
estate to the amount of $1,000, John
F. Myer chooses TO stay in jail six
months rather than pay fine of $3.50,
says the Savannah News. He has
been there for about two weeks now,
and he is willing to remain there until
his sentence has been served ont.
81 haven't any thing to do now, any
way" he says, "and | had might as
well make $40 per month by staying
In Jail"
"What do you SUPPOSE" was the
query a we'll known German citizen
addressed to a representative of the
Morning News, following it up in this
wise; There is man in Jail. John F.
Myer, who would rather stay there
than to pay his fine. The remarkable
feature is that he is well off.
"The other day some Germans came
to me and said something to me about
helping Myer. He has been convicted
of keeping his barroom open on Sun
day some time ago, when the Law and
Order League was making it SO warm
for offenders. He was convicted and
new trial was sought, and he was
under bond until about two weeks ago,
when he was sent to Jail under SEN
tence of $3.50 fine or six months in
Jail. The new trial hasn't cleared
him.
when my friends talked to me
about helping Myer, [ thought would
look Up his standing. | found in the
city treasurer's Office that he resnrned
81, 900 worth of real estate for taxation.
This is in his own name, too, and it
is really worth at least $4,000. He is
in jail, though he says he would just
as soon stay there. He is out of the
bar and grocery business now and has
nothing to do.
"The funny thing about it to me is
that Myer isn't very we'll. He went to
Europe some time ago for his health.
There he is, though, coOped up in jail.
And he dOsen't think enough of his
liberty to pay $3.50 for it.
When the property returns of Myer
were discovered the movement on his
behalf fell through. The Germans
who were disposed to help, have con-
cluded that he is plenty able to help
himself
