THE TRICKS.
Coffee Plays on Some,


1t hardly pays to laugh before you

times humiliating to think of after

begged me to drink it again as he

Foot Prints of Alcohol.

Employers find that those addicted
to the use of alcoholic beverages are
not to be depended on. Even If they
are always at their work the charac-
ter of 1t suffers just in proportion to
their Indulgence. Now this condition
is only sign of disease in certain CON
trolling centers in the nervous sys-
TEN. In this simple condition, as well
as in multitude of other diseases of
the nervous system, we may trace the
footprints of alcohol. Here we have
an explanation of the oyercrowded in
sane asylums of to-day, to say nothing
of the army of sufferers at large. Sta.
tistics from France and other Euro
pean countries show that the increase
of insanity is parallel with the increase
in the consumption of alcohol per cap
tia.

Stomach.

The majority of people never stop
to think that the stomach is anything
more than a receptacle for things that
have been chewed. They get hold of
something that tastes good and swal-
low it into the stomach to get it out
of the way, so there will be room for
something more. That might be all
right if the stomach were a garbage
box that could be carried off and
emptied but nature intends the stom-
ach for another purpose. We are
constructed of what we eat. We should
stop to think of that. We should be
careful what we swallow, for it be-
comes brain, heart, limbs, blood; and
IL we are to have good blood clear
brains, sound minds, sturdy legs and
strong arms, we must eat food that
is capable of making that sort of It's
sue.

Ellsworth. Neb., in a telegram to
Senator Willard says that the presi-
dents message to congress on the
quarantine bill is n menace to the live
stock interests of the country. In con-
nection with this matter, which is eX-
citing the liveliest kind of interest
among live stock men of Nebraska.
Senator Willard has received letter
from S. u. Delatour of Llewellyn,
complaining against the quarantine
regulation with respect to cattle eX-
posed TO mango. He makes the broad
statement that not per cent of the
cattle on the ranges had been known
to have mango; that out of 1000 head
of cattle he handled in recent years
he had lost but four head from
mango. Mr.. Comstock, in addition to
his statement that the bill would he n
menace to the live stock interests if
passed, said that he was in favor OF
federal control of quarantine rather
than state control. Mr.. Delatour says
that what is most needed is an in
specton for feeders at the point of
destination and not at the point Of
Cmbarkation.

Dealing with Burning Oil.

To extinguish burning oil do not
throw water on the flames, for it will
only spread them by causing the oil
to float. The right plan is to throw
on flour, earth or sand. Any of these
things will soak up the oil-generally
paraffin from an overturned lamp
and quickly eXtinguish the fire.
