A HAsTY TEMPER.
The Harm 1t Does Even Though the
Ugly Fit BE Soon Over.

It is a remarkable thing that there
exists in peoples minds a distinct So
'efal precedence among the vices.
To own oneself on intimate terms
with such one as deceit or Islander,
FOR instance, would be almost undreamt
OF. but how often have we heard people
say, almost with pride at any rate
with no trace of shame, 81 have very
hasty temper?" And then as if to
transfigure it into a very virtue they
triumphantly add, "But it is soon over"
So it may be, but how about it's conse-
luences! Are they soon over?
There are few more dangerous enc
mics to the peace and comfort of every
day life than the people who speak
hastily in the squalls of passing i'll tenn
per, and then, when they are restored
70 good humor, expect everything to be

position possible as lust as it was be-
fore" in this up and down hill human
nature of ours. Every act or word is
step by which we mount upward or
link lower III the unhindered journey
3ngs onward of all the conditions of
Rife, and the people who give utterance
TO the determinations of passionate tenn
pers unfailingly drop down in the esti-
mation of others, from which it is q
stiff climb UP again.
Moreover, words once uttered, wheth-
e. true or false, are usually undying
and live OH in hearts and memories
long after the careless bow that shot
gneh poisoned arrows forth is unstrung.
And though the utterer may plead that

really believed, but what he thought
at the time would hurt most, it is al
Entst impossible for the nearer to I'M
defstand that the expression was not
shat of living though latent opinion
and to feel it accordingly.
The code of fashion in the moral
realms has decreed how much better q
passionate temper is than sulky one
but there is something to be said il

SHORT TALKS.

a terrible lot of love is wasted on
cats, dogs and unmarried men.
SO many people waste time. DO you
do it? DO you talk, and talk about
nothing:
How we all dislike the child that

A good many people are like pie

When womans daughter marries a
preacher she is more firmly convinced

vantages she did not enjoy.

when she is asked how he is, she will
say, "Well, he does not complain, but
do not think he is very well"

INSECT ARCHITECTURE.
The Way Carpenter Bees Build Their
Nests In Wood.

Nests HI OOu.
Mr.. Rennie in his "Insect Architec
ture" describes the work of a carpen-
ter bee First she chiseled a channel
in piece of wood with her powerful
jaws and deposited each morsel at
distance Then she made repeated
journeys to bring in pollen and clay
until she had collected enough to serve
as food for the future grubs and to
bar the entrance.
Cutting open the post, he found
nest of six cells separated by parti-
lions Of clay as thin as cardboard and
with sides as smooth as any joiner
could have contrived.
Reaumur tells us how the violet car
penter bee bores into wood obliquely
for an inch and then perpendicularly
for foot, scooping out three or four
such passages. AT the bottom she lays
an egg, covers it with paste of pollen
and honey and protection Of gnaw-
ings from the wood This is repeated
until the nest is filed, and side door
at the bottom enables the young bees
to come out in due time.-Pearson's
Weekly.

The Wren.

1t is to be noted that if more than
year old wrens come directly to their
nesting site of the preceding summer
If it is still intact, alls we'll. There is
no lettering in the neighborhood, nor
has it ever happened, so far as my OBJ
servation extends, that single bird
appears and mate subsequently
comes upon the scene. The pair arrive
together This is unquestionably true
of my doorstep wrens of the past seven
summers and suggests that the marital
tie is not voluntarily broken, whatever
the birds careers from August to April.
The male may lose his mate, but he
soon finds another, and the widowed
bird may lose her lord, but she prompt
ly mates again, and so one or the other
keeps the old summer home in mind,
and it is never forsaken. 1t becomes
a fixed feature of their lives. = DR..

1t was worth the trip to Chicago to
see the faces of the colored people in
the Coliseum at the conclusion of the
speech Of Cummings, the colored dele
gate from Maryland. He seconded the
nomination of Roosevelt-he was in a
fast class of oratory, the pace had
proved too much for some of the speak
ers. There was general supposition
that the colored delegate would make
the most of his opportunity by Length
ty speech and the use of all the big
words in the dictionary. He did Meth
err; he spoke briefly; every word count
ed: his voice rang out clear and strong:
it was great effort of a great man,
and when he closed the convention
rose to its feet and cheered him to a
man. When he went back into the
delegate section the delegates rushed
to him, overwhelming him with con-
CALCULATIONS. Then it was that the
pride shown in the eyes of every color
ed man, and in the eyes too of every
republican who still believes in the
doctrines of the fathers that manhood
and brains and honor are not always
done up in white packages.

An Early Memorial system.

The primitive Indo- European numer-
ical system was a mixture of the deci
NAL and the seXagesimal. The first
large number was the 'shock" that
is, 60-and the next large number was
the "hund," or hundred is, 120.
Between 60 and 100 there We're no
numbers like our TO- etc, being "a
shock and TO-" and so being "a shock
and 90" The introduction of our
present numbers between 60 and 120
arose out Of the introduction of the
decimal hund or hundred that is, 100
in distinction from which the old hun
dred Q2O was called the duodecimal
hundred, or the great hundred"
which is still used in Iceland and parts
Of England.

that pinching depression in business
had not come a good while ago. And
it would have been had it not been for
the prevailing impression that there
will be no change at the coming cleo

Waterloo Reporter: The differences
of the past, more imaginary than real,
are swept away in the new declaration,
which all republicans can accept with
out qualification or sacrifice of opinion
or principle. 1t is happy solution of
problem that has been vlcariously
used to vex one another. Every body
can fiod plenty of room on that plat
form. 1t Is broad enough and strong
enough to afford an abiding place for
every man who has a tinge of the
blood OF republicanism in his veins
and there need be no crowding in the
center, no peering over The edges. no
furtive chances around the corners. 1t
means victory for the cause it repre-
sents.

Events become ancient history so
quickly with our people that we will
not dwell longer on the events OF the
Republican National Convention, save
to say that the expected happened, be-
cause the masses of the republican
party had already spoken and had with
almost unanimous voice instructed the
delegates as to that which should be
done. Cut and dried, it may be called,
but the people did both the drying and
the cutting and it was left for the dele
gates to carry out the details.
The platform is clear, if somewhat
lengthy. statement of the recognized
principles of republicanism; the candi-
dates are the choice of nine-tenths Of

all be permitted to meet in the con.

A National convention such as the
one just closed appears like a series of
state conventions. Each state has its
headquarters, and. by the way. none
surpassed those of Iowa, where not
only the delegates but many of the
leaders may be found visiting and hob
nobbing. The Stratford at Chicago
looked just as the Savery will at Des

as many friends and acquaintances
there.

Among the prominent Republicans
who have been mentioned for Presi-
dental Elector from the Tenth District
Is Hon. Andrew D. Clarke, of Algona,
and the suggestion of his name has met
with general acceptance throughout
the District. Mr.. Clarke has resided
in Kossuth county since 1865, has been
at all times a consistent and untiring
Republican, has represented his dis
trict in the Legislature. and is we'll
qualified for the honor offered to him
Few men in the party have worked
so untiring for its principles. There is
a peculiar fitness in recognizing the
party services of men of this kind. Mr..
Clarke was offered the position of al
ternate delegate-at-large at the last
state convention, but declined it. If he
will accept the position of Elector. we
feel that the honor will be bestowed in
the right place. and we believe we are
only voicing the general feeling among
Republicans of this District in urging
his name as elector. Let the pa. ty re-
member .the services of those who
have continually labored for its success.
We would not OF course wish to dis
courage the ambitions of any other
good republican and there are many
such in the District who are worthy Of
the honor. but up to this time Mr..
Clarke's is the only name we have
heard mentioned and we would move tc
make it unanimous, for without com
parative unanlmity such an honor is Of
little value.
