The Dutiful Son,

The small boy was very obedient
and dutiful
Also very stupid.
Perhaps the second statement was
superfuous.
But we did not intend to open a
moral discussion.
His father had always taught him
he should take pains in small
things" as only the people who did
so ever amounted to anything.
The boy had pondered deeply over
this advice, wondering duly what it
meant.
Until one morning when the lad
awoke with severe ache in every
tooth.
Then he was happy.
For, with every tooth handing him
separate bunch of agony, he knew
that he had taken pains in small
things"
And he was happy Baltimore

PARIS A WELL LIGHTED CITY
Strange Contrast With Conditions ir

Strange Contrast With Conditions in
Most American Cities.
Paris offers strange contrast to
London (and to most American cities)
in the matter of street lighting. London
is wOefully somber at night, except
at certain points where concert halls
and gin mills. are numerous, where
as Paris is brilliantly lighted every
where. Nothing SO astOnishes the
American visitor as the long lines OF
brilliant gas lamps (incandesant burn
ers, all of which function perfectly
reaching down each and every street
to sparkling perspectives of diamond
strings. Do you feel disposed to
shrug your shoulders and cry out that
it is garish and unrestful? Please
don't. 1t is a grand success and JOY
forever. If you doubt it, come over
here and see for yourselves. l have
carefully Observed the placement OF
lampposts and find that in some places
there is one every twenty feet; in less
favored localities, one every forty or
fifty feet, while the little streets have
them at intervals of about 200 feet.
In the case of the poor little streets
the lighting is, at the worst, admirable
not to say magnificent. What does
all this cost? 1t costs too much, from
our enlightened Cor unlighteO point
of view We are content to grope
about in the dark streets. The Par
isian abhors darkness (as he shOuld)
and is willing to pay for light, even
though he may pay pretty dearly for
it,

Modern Social Demands.

One curious phase of taking our.
selves so seriously is the enormously
increased Importance of the interest
ing. Society fairly bristles with the
interesting. Sometimes one wonders
where the uninteresting do. Modern
society demands that you should be
something or do something, or say
something, or at least pretend to. |,
is understood that you must be cele
ibrated or notorious, or well adver
'tised. or cheeky and even dishonest
if it is on a magnificent scale. At any
rate, you must take yourself seriously

Weather conditions this fall have been
ideal so far for shock threshing and
movement of wheat to market. The &C
casional showers which have been expe
rienced have helped rather than hurt the
wheat ITSELF as in each case they were
followed by clear, sunny weather. Coun-
try elevators all over the Northwest are
damned full of new wheat. and the vol
ume of the crop is causing real embar-
rassment in many sections. Farmers are
building cribs for temporary accommoda-
ton of their grain in several important
districts and instances are pointed out
where the new wheat is allowed to
main on the ground just as it comes from
the thresher because of the impossibility
of handling it with present equipment.
Providentially, the weather has been
beautifully clear and no damage has re-
suited from this action. The shock
threshing has been generally completed.
While the country elevators are taxed to
their capacity, the big grain storage
houses at market centers are still able to
handle all the grain the railroads can
haul but the roads are all sWamped with
| the food of grain, and miles of cars now
| loaded and ready are waiting power to
null them to market. We think. that be-
| fore all this grain is moved. prices will
decline enough to make free purchases
profitable.

And speaking gently, called her name
1.-The world to conquer l shall try"
Then Love was dumb. and passed on by.
So through the world one went her way:
Men bowed before her day by day,
Yet at the last, when she was old.
Her heart was empty, aching. cold.
The other answered, Eyes. I'll come
And strive with you to make a home"
Then hand in hand with Love she went
And life was blessed with sweet content
Within the walls of home she found
Rich joys which wrapped her being round
And in the evening of her days
Her life was like psalm of praise.

Certainly his talk was backed
by all the force of facts, and
was clear, manly and exceed

earnest hearts.
CARD PLAYING received atten-
tion first. He quoted "a lead

his paper at a time when pub

also bid irregularly, and one

1t was conceded during the
deliberations of the joint board
yesterday that both Brown &
Co. and w. A. Smith & Co. were
entitled to some remuneration
for what they did under the old
contracts. Brown & Co. s activ-
ity was confined to shipping a

without entering on actual con-
struction. Smith & Co., on the
other hand, excavated a partial
channel for the Boyer cutoff

outlet for that stream. Mr..
Smith said that his claim would
be from $4,000 to $4,000.
In addition to signing up the
contracts today, which will be
done if no bitches occur. the
joint board will probably fix the
amount and date of issue for
the drainage ditch bonds to be

Dancing was next shown up
the round dance was dwelt up-
on most because that was the
dance most loved by dancers.
AS an Evangelist he was COM
PEELED to speak out on this
matter as carefully gathered
statistics showed that rs per
cent of the fallen women of
our country were led into that
awful condition by the round
dance. This does not mean
that Is per cent of women who
dance go wrong, but that rs
per cent of those who do 90
wrong were led into their
shameful life by the round
dance. That the round dance
is still doing these things is
made plain by the the CONVEX
sations of young men who
move in society and by doctors.
"My dancing career said
Mr.. Smith was bronpht +n
A company of young men,
my self among them, were in a
home one night. There was
not a dissipated or dissolute
fellow in the party. All were
highly respected in every re-
gard. One asked if any of the
fellows had danced with a GER
tain young lady. Then he
made a remark about her
which showed he had been set
on fire of hell. The young lady
was a good christian girl from
one of the best homes in the
city. But she was dressed in
the shameful mode that is cal
led fashionable for dancing
parties, and it had it's devilish
effect on the young man. That
and the warm embrace had
done it's work.
After Mr.. Smith had given
that lecture once a young man
said Mm sorry the girls have

that every play is vile; but

4 THREATEN SUITS.
Prior to the opening of tn
bids, and again before the join
board had voted to award cor
tracts, H. r. Lewis of Win
cennes, Ind, an attorney for r
A. Brown & Co., gave verba
notice of that firms intention
to stand on whatever rights j
may have under the contrac
OF 1903, when it secured tn,

! work under the ditch proceed.
lngs taken at that time. A for.
NAL objection was entered to
the work being let to any other
concerns. Similar notice was
given on behalf of w. A. Smith
relative to his contract of two
years ago for the construction
of the first Boyer cutoff.
A written protest filed by
Brown & Co. with it's bid en-
gagged the attention of the SUI
pervisors and County Attorneys
Fallon and Hess at a session
foM1ng fesla !o ADJ adj journment in the
afternoon. The attorneys were
asked to state their views on
the communication, and they
gave it as their opinion that
the board was under no obliga-
tion to abide by the old con-
tract if better terms could be
secured, as the proceedings
were entirely independent of
one another.
THROUGH EQUITY ACTION.
Last evening it was again
rumored that Brown & Co.
would bring an injunction suit
to prevent the work from be-
ing done under new contracts.
George S. Wright, local attor-
ney for the firm, stated that
an injunction might be asked
for as a show of resistance to
the present proceedings by
every available means, which
would refute any argument
that by failing to act in this
way Brown & Co. had waived
its right to claim damages. The
final relief which the company
expects to secure, however,
will be through an action in
equity.
Computations made by En-
gineer Seth Dean of Glenwood
at the request of the supervis-
ors, showed Brown & Co.'s
present bid to be $4,000 in ex-
cess of the former bid made for
the same two sections, Nos. /
and 2. The Omaha firms bid
on Nos. 3 and a was conditioned
on the acceptance of it's propo-
sition on No. l. This reserva-
ton produced no difficulties, as
| it was lowest on all three.
The joint board did little else
at the forenoon session than to
hear the bids read. Two hours
in the afternoon was given to
wrestling with the question
whether or not the contracts
should be let at once or another
day taken for consideration
Messrs Hosbrook of Missouri;
Valley and Baker of Council
Bluffs strongly urged immedi'
ate action. They were over
