No experience better qualities man
to be good father of boys than to
have been himself a boy. TO consid-
cradle extent the same thing may be
said Of glrls-that good girls usually
make good mothers, and that colleges
that turn out good women do enough.
But q good mother is fa- more Of a
specialist than an average good father.
She must be Judge of health, diet,
and clothes, and must watch and reg
ulate all the details OF the child's life.
Mothering is skilled labor; fatherlng
isn't. If the father is skilled worker,
his experiences concerns the things that
he does for living ana for the support
of his family That skill he acquires
by preliminary training. But the
mother-skill Of the mother is applied
directly to the children, and if 1t is
lacking the children suffer- Harper's

The persistent manner in which
Belgians cling to their medieval fes-
tivals and traditions is characteristic
national trait well known to those fa-
miliar with the Flemish and Wal
loon provinces. The survival Of such
popular fetes as that of the carnival
procession Of the dancing GILES at
Binche attests the innate love of Bel
gians for these picturesque vestiges
of their forefathers' civilization.
The festival of the dancing GILES Of
Binche is in many respects the quaint

est of these popular customs. This
festival takes place on Mardi-Gras
at the Binche, a town of Hainaut. The
carnival of Binche has always been
held in high repute by Belglans but
without its Giles 1t would not be sub
stantially different from that of Rome,
Nice and other towns.
These GILES, or dancing men. who
form the glory of the Binche carnival,
are characterized by their headdresses
and humps. The headdress is most
elaborate and striking. In shape it re-
sembles the oldtime top hat of our
great-grandfathers The hat is sur
mounted with magnificent ostrich
feathers from three to four feet In
length, which give TO the wearers the
appearance of giants. From each hat,
besides, flow several wide, yariegated
ribbons, while the Giles trousers are
bedecked with trimmings of real lace
and ribbons to match those of the hat.
Every Gille wears mask and silk
belt, from which hangs small bells.
The entire Giles outfit costs from
$40 to $50, a large sum for the peasant
youths, generally selected by the carni-
val committee to fill the part of act
ors in the Mardi-Gras festivals. The
honor of being a Gille is so great, how-
ever, among the gay lotharios of Bin
che, and carries such prestige with
the local damsels, that the young men
chosen by the committee are only too
pleased to make the financial sacrl-
fee demanded of them
In the afternoon Of Mardi-Gras the
Giles, In full uniform, two hundred
strong, preceded by the local brass
bands and musical clubs, appear In
procession and march toward the
Grande Place. The sight thus offered
is unique In the annals of carnival
rejoicings. The Giles proceed by
dancing to the tune Of the band just
mentioned. AT every few steps they
stop bend and unbend, to heighten
the effect of the ringing from the
bells worn at their belts. Their
streamers float to and fro. and en-
velop them In rainbow of ribbon, At
the same time the simultaneous ring

Grandmother's Rules.

Always look at the person to whom
you speak. When you are addressed,
look straight at the person who
speaks TO you. DO not forget this.
Speak your words plainly; do not
mutter or humble. If words are worth
saying, they are worth pronouncing
distinctly and clearly
Do not say disagreeable things. If
you have nothing pleasant to say,
keep silent.
Think three times before you speak
once.
Have you something to do that you
find hard and would prefer not to do?
DO the hard thing first, and get it
over with. If you have done wrong
go and confess it. If your lesson is
tough, master it. If the garden is to
be weeded, weed it first and play
afterwards. Do first the thing Won
don't like to do, and then, with a
clear conscience, try the rest.

In Earnest on Bounties.

1.-THE people of northwest Nebraska
are in earnest when they ask for the
re-enactment of the law providing for
bounties on wild animals" said Rep
resentative j. A. Douglas of Rock
county on the 30th. "They have suf-
fered a great deal from the ravages
of the wolves and coyotes and feel
that it is only proper that some In
ducement be offered for the destruc-
ton of the pests. The inhabitants of
Eastern Nebraska probably feel that
the law is a joke. They do not have
the same conditions that we have ana
fail to understand the need. With
us our herds are not safe over night
because of the danger from these ami
mails, They do not stop at sheep and
cattle on the ranges, but come nlo
the corrals and small pigs and calves
are dragged down and killed.
"In my bill have provided bounty
Of 50 on wolves. A bounty OF 81 rs
| scarcely large enough to make an in
ducement to people to hunt the ami
mails. This sum will be sufficient. /
nave Introduced safeguards so that
all the scalps presented for bounty
shall be secured in legitimate way.

pie demand. They ask me about the
possibility of securing such law con-
tinually and l feel myself that it is

Benefit in Two Meals a Day.

Persons who are the victims of
chronic complaints, and whose diges'
ton is slow and feeble, are often
greatly benefited by taking but two
meals a day, if they are careful to eat
as much in the two meals as would
ordinarily be comprised in three. The
neuralgia, in particular, will do well
to adopt this course, but the first meal
should be somewhat late and the sec
ond reasonably early.

SENATE-The senate in commit
tee of the whole on the 30th recon-
mended for passage senate file rs, by

amended so that the driver OF an au-
tomobile need not get out of his ma
chine and secure permission to pass
people driving in the roads. Senate
file q, by Wore, was referred back
to the committee. This bill provides
that the drivers of traction engines
should lay planls across bridges and
culverts before passing over them

ate in committee of the whole, by a
vote of 16 to s, recommended that s..
F. 4, the Mockett divorce bill, be in
definitely postponed. S. F. 6. the

LEGISLATURE
of NEBR ASKA
Synopsis Of Proceedings Of the Twenty Ninth Gem
era Session.

SENATE-Aside from the debate
nn the Mockett divorce law in the
senate and the report of a few COM
mittees little business was transact
ed on the 9th. The judiciary commit
tee, which had been instructed to pre-
pare bill defining what property is
exempt from taxation, reported that
a legislative definition of exemptions
would be of no value, the interpre-
tation both of the constitution and
legislative enactments being within
the province of the supreme court. The
committee, quoting the constitution,
reports that portions of the section
are self-acting and it is not within
the legislative power to add to or de-
tract therefrom. The following por-
tion of the constitution, in the judg
ment OF the committee, is not self
acting, but finds expression only by
the aid of legislative enactment: And
such other property as may be used
exclusively for agricultural and horti-
cultural societies, for schools, reli-
giouS, cemetery and charitable pur-
poses may be exempt from taxation,
but such exemptions shall be only by
general law" Senate file No. II was
reported by the judiciary committee
for indefinite postponement, but upon
the request of Gibson of Douglas it
was again referred to the committee
for further consideration. The bill de-
fines child dependency and provides
relief. 1t was the idea of the commit
tee that it conflicted with the Juvenile
court bill. Bills introduced included:
Providing for suspended sentences in
wife desertion cases when offender
gives bonds to provide for mainten-
ance of family. Making life insurance
companies deposit securities with the
auditor Providing punishment for
those who by committing perjury Sc
cure conviction in certain criminal
cases, and abolishing capital punish
ment.

HOUSE-H. r. II, by Casebeer of
Gage, to turn over to the university
the Morrill, and university cash fund
of 100000 from the government was
passed in the house on the 9th, with
the emergency clause. 1t required a
call of the house and lively skirmish-
ing to get the necessary two-thirds,
not because of opposition to the BILL
but small attendance. H. R. 81, by
Douglas, providing bounties for kill
ing wolves, wild cats and coyotes, was
recomm .nded for passage after a
strong appeal by Douglas. II. R. 104,
by Lee of douglas, to require a ply
sician's certificate for the purchase of
cocaine or morphine was recommend
ed for passage as was H. R. 60, by
Bartoo, requiring dentists to be
licensed the same as physicians. The
house went into committee of the
whole and recommended for passage:
II. r. 80, by Saddler of Adams, giving
as compensation to soldiers relief
commissions in counties per cent Of
the money distributed; II. r. CT, by
Saddler. allowing counties to spend
$50 for the burial of a civil war vet
eran insto ad of S35, and prohibiting
their burial in paupers graves. Bills
