of the peasants of central Russia are
shown forcibly by their ideas of the

This view is probably due in part to.
the character of the country, which is
hlled with small lakes and swamps.
The sky, being SO near the sun, must
become very warm, and therefore Il
must perspire freely. IN this way rain
1s easily accounted for. It s.-ould be,
noted that destructive cloudbursts or
violent dOwnpours of rain are common
in central Russia and that they occur
there, as elsewhere, chiefly in the hot

n Hector Mirror: Jim Hill has been
telling the yublic for thepaat few years
since he launched his merger scheme
that competition in business was ret-
ting to be thing Of the past. Lately,
however, he himself has proven that it
is still in his line of business at least.
The 500 line last week completed its
through train service from the twin
cities to Winnipeg aud at once inaug-
urated schedule which was several
hours shorter and much more desir rable
in MANY ways than what the Great
Northern has been giving. The very
next day the latter road announced a
and thus little competition injected

pers that way
Duluth Herald: J. II. King, father
of the little boy murdered by bandits
rerently in a saloon near Minneapolis,
attempted to commit suicide at the
scene of the crime the other day. His
heart is probably torn with remOrse
over the fact that the death of his
child was a result of his own folly in
leading him into such places. There is
a warning here for other fathers who
are thoughthssly negligent in such
matters. The danger of physical
violence to child is remote, but the
danger to his morals is a living reality,
and the sending of children to saloons
for beer aud liquor is practice fraught
with great danger to the welfare Of the
little ones.
St. Paul Dispatch: Some of the
Washington correspondents are renew
ing the joke they sprung earlier relative
to the succession by Congressman Nc
Cleary to the head of the appropria
tions committee in the event of the
election of Congressman Hemenway to
the senate to succeed Vice President
Fairbanks. We have known Speaker
Cannon for upwards of quarter of q
century, and we very much mistake the
man it he could think of appointing to
such a responsible position man who
misrepresents the people of his district
and who is incapable of handling all
even ordinary measure on the floor Of
the house. While he is humorist him
self, Speaker Cannon would scarcely
enjoy the "joshing" which would be his
portion, should he make such an ap
pointment.

Tie Lake Shore railway company
has placed an order for 5000 steel ties
for experiment. The increasing diff
ticulty of obtaining first-class wooden
ties compels the companies to look for
substitutes. The steel ties are far more
expensive and are harder on rolling
stock and rails. and a moving train
makes far more noise in passing over
them than over wooden ties. But they
last much longer and if the wooden
ones cannot be obtained something else
must be substituted. The experiment
with steel will be watched Fth much

BUXTON.

This issue of the Bystander we pre-
sent a brief synopsis of the enterprls-
ing town of Buxton, which is perhaps
the lagest town owned and controlled
by colored people in the United states
that has sprang up in the last three
wears. True, it is an unincorporated
town of about 5000 people, OF Whlch
5000 are colored people. Here dWells
more colored people than any other
place in Iowa; here dwells more sue.
cessful business enterprises owned
by colored people than any Iowa town !;
here more societies and clubs than
elsewhere. In short, one can STUDY
the Negro in all phases OF the great
race question. Mr.. Buxton and Mr.
Wells have given the colored man an
equal opportunity to develop his busl-
ness. industrial and frugal powers.
Too much praise cannot be given
Messrs. Buxton and Wells and Mr.
N. P. Harrington, for they have maze
Buxton what it is today. If our lead
ing business and enterprising men
and women of Buxton act well, be
honest and do right the race in gen.
eral will be greatly benefited through.
out Iowa by your influence for GOOD
and high ideals. 1t is my earnest
hope to see my race considered and
respected in the affairs of Iowa, the
same as any other worthy citizen.

EXERCISE AND DIET.

In contrast to the great number OF
extravaganza and ridiculous regimens
designed nowadays to promote bodily
symmetry, the wholesome advice of
d.. Grace Peckham Murray in the
September Delineator is refreshing.
In regard to the extremes Of weight,
the writer goes to the heart of the
matter and prescribes the diets for the
stout and thin, including for the latter
the atural direction to eat much, es.
pecial]y Of milk and eggs-a half a doz-
en- eggs day if possible-also butter,
cream, sweets, potatoes, root vege-
tables, etc. For the stout the diet
should be the reverse of the above,
with the addition of some we'll directed
exercises, which are illustrated in the
article. Physical perfection is not SO
much a matter of weight as Of the dis
tribution OF flesh. and for local devel-
opment massage as we'll as exercise is
recommended; but DIR. Murray insists
that the most important factor in any
system Of development or reduction is
persistency, for without it no special
exercis, can be Of any benefit.
