Statton Home and the State.

HE fortune Of the late W. s. Strstton
oi Colorado Springs was left in trust for
the poor OF Fl Paso county. Of the state
and Of the country in general.
This millionaire had tasted the dregs
OF POVERTY himself, and when he found
millions at his command he made it his
boast that no worthy person should be
cither cold or hungry within the limits
of his knowledge.
Dying. he found no better disposition
70 make of his wealth than TO leave his
fortune for the benefit OF those whom he
hhd SO greatly helped in his lifetime.
Nj, Stratton's noble generosity and
ms wise purpose were promptly recog-
ni<ed by the people OF his home com
mnnity, in spite OF the efforts made to
manufacture sentiment on the other
side. and the people Of the state, as soon
a. they were rightly informed upon
these matters. also gave their approval
10 the Stratton Home.
In expectation Of possible litigation,
and with view OF providing an addi
hnnal defense for the will. Mr.. Strntton
provided for the reversion of his prop
erty TO the state, in case the plan OF the
Humo could not he carried out
But Mr.. Stratton certainly never ex-
pected that this part of the will would
ever be made an excuse 10 defeat the
man purpose OF that instrument
And the people OF Colorado certainly
viii not approve of the misdirected zeal
Of any state official along this direction.
Colorado has not reached the point at
which it will desire to see the state in
stitutions supported with money divert
ed from the poor and helpless, nor will it
welcome relief to taxpayers secured by
taking food from the hungry, roofs from
the shelterless and robbing the helpless
poor OF the benefits Mr.. Stratton intend
ed to confer upon them.
The payment OF the legitimate inherit
ance tax at fair valuation is all the
state Of Colorado has right to expect
from the Stratton estate, and it will not
be to the interest Of anyone 10 under

Cattle Will Be Dipped.

At the request OF the stock raisers OF
El Paso county, the board Of county com
missioners has appointed John Blue Of
Peyton cattle inspector. He will be un-
der the direction OF the state board Of
stock inspectors. His appointment has
been the result Of the prevalence of
mango among the cattle of the country
The disease has spread so rapidly during
the last few months that the cattle rails
ers decided thai an inspector must be
appointed in order to weed out diseased
cattle and prevent any further infection.
According to the Gazette's figures, there
are approximately 2700O cattle in the
county. and under the terms of the state
law it is necessary for every diseased an
imal to be treated between October Is
and November 10.
The cattle afflicted with mango are
treated in the same manner as sheep. A
strong mixture Of tobacco, sulphur, lime
and a number OF other ingredients is
made, into which the cattle are dipped.
The mixture is placed in a large tank,
deep enough to cover the cattle, and they
are driven into IL through small open
ing and compelled to swim to the oppo-
site side OF the tank. This process is re-
peated twice with each animal, and un-
less the disease is in very advanced
stage, it will disappear.

Talk of the Times.

There is no need OF worrying or fret
ting because someone has found fault
with what you say. 'Tis the common lot
OF men in business-the merchant does
not please all his customers, the post
master is cuffed and kicked for alleged
mistakes, the creamery man and cheese
maker is ever reminded of the poor tests
of milk received, and the minister finds
it hard to please all his congregation
with his sermons. The newspaper man
gets more than his share Of it and is ex-
pected to get out cheerful newspaper
just the same. A man befriends another
for years and is turned down and abused.
Such things are not always pleasant but
they always have been and doubtless al
ways will be so, and the easiest and best
way is to pay the least attention to them
and go light along, trying to be pleasant
and useful.
The young man who likes TO stand on
the corner and squirt tobacco juice on
the sidewalk and laugh like horse, has
been given terrible blow by some un
known philosopher in the following epis-
tie: To-day, young man, as you stood
on the corner smoking a cigar that was
paid for with money you had other use
for, did you notice that old man passing
on the other side with hat battered, coat
torn, pants fringed and sloppy, his shoes
gaping and down at the heel? You did
Well, forty years ago he stood just where
you were standing today; he bought ci-
gar' as you did, smoked up and squan-
dered his wages as you are doing without
thought of tomorrow. His habits and
associations formed, his salary was eaten
up as fast as earned. Old age crept up
relaxed and his place was filed by
younger man; today he has nothing
Yes, the poor house stands open, and
history repeats itself"
Is it any wonder that some men and
women are snappish, snarling and quar-
relsome? We give much less attention
to what we feed the human animal than
we do to what we feed the lover animals.
What does the growing, garrulous,
grumpy old scold, who makes life bur
den to his family, eat, anyway? On what
does the nagging woman feed? Why
not look into these matters? 1t may not
be a question of too great predominance
of meat in the daily diet. Man in this
rigorous climate and strenuous life needs
meat, says an editorial in What To Eat
But what proportion does it sustain to
the rest of his dietaryY Perhaps he is
eating too much Of everything. Why
doesn't the ''henpecked" husband recon-
mend diet of prunes for his wifeY They
have been known to transform the sour
est, most irritable disposition into the
most gentle, tranquil, amiability. The
secret of an amiable disposition is we'll
balanced, carefully selected diet - one
that is adapted to the particular needs
and physical condition Of the individual.
And in this cultivation Of an agreeable
disposition the science Of cookery plays
an important part. Don't waste time
and energy at the grumpy crouch;
change his dietary and give him better
cooking.
