Teach your child self-control says
Ralph Tennal. Teach him to control
his appetite, his temper, his desire

control himself there need be no
danger of his future. A child who

drinking is that one does not have
Sufficient self-control to stop when he
knows he has had enough. The same
is true of eating, of ambition, of

cream from ten cows in first class con-
dltion without ice. In the corner of
my house cellar, near the drain out
let, L built a platform about three
feet square. / nailed to the sides
burlap sacks so as to hang to the
ground. On the platform / placed a
half barrel with both heads in. In
the top head bored a hole to take in
hose pipe, which 1 ran to a pail in
the SINK where we pump water from
the well, and fill the half barrel with
water. L place the cream cans under
the platform, and by several small
gimIet holes let the water only on the
top OF the cans. This forms a cold
storage chamber, and 1 think it is

Many commuters begged Wideman to
put in few rolls of ragtime, but he
refused. saying the hymn tunes arous-
ed more sympathy for him.
Wideman was 40 years old. and lost
his sight in a railroad accident. In
late years he was helped by his wife,
who carried tin cup for the money.

A Bank Run

! The American State Bank. of Hill
City, sustained one of the heaviest
runs ever known in this part of the
country. Monday and Tuesday de-
positors went in and drew out their
money Nine out of ten could give
no particular reason for doing SO ex-
cept they ''heard the bank was fail
ing" This was whispered around
from one to another: causing many to
act hastily, without knowing the
true state of affairs. No doubt the
unsasiness was Intensified by some
who wanted to see the bank in an
embarrassing position, and who were
glad to fan the flames and throw on
fuel. Monday and Tuesday people
called for their money-and they got
it, every cent of it, every check pre-
sented was promptly paid, and when
business opened Wednesday morning,
many wandering depositors were
shown into the bank vault where
they could see with their own eyes
the packages Of paper money and the
sacks of gold and silver representing
TWENTY-FIVE or thirty thousand dollars,
thanks to the cash reserve the bank
is able to command. Every customer
was cheerfully accommodated, with
plenty to spare and the New Era is
glad to note that the bank met this
demand upon its re-
sources with the greatest of ease, |
demonstrating that this young finan-
,ial institution is strong enough and |
Dig enough and willing enough to |
protect any and every interest en-
.rusted to its care--Hill City New

BILLY" MORGAN IN SWEDEN.
The Kansas Editor Abroad Finds Much
to Admire in the Ear NnrfhIand


From w. Y Morgan's Stockholm Letter to
the Hutchinson News.
My first impression of Sweden was
received on our arrival in the after
noon, having had no dinner. A good
square meal. 1t was the first time /
had seen any real bread and butter
since l left home, for in Germany
they gave us hard French rolls with
out butter. L was introduced to two
kinds of Swedish ''bread," one a com
position which tasted like shredded
wheat biscuit and looked like a cold
waffle, the other black and a little
sour But along with these breads
they brought the real thing, the but
Ter and cream for the coffee / fell in
love with Sweden forthwith 1t is a
beautiful country this time of wear
with it's green fields and black forests
rising quickly from the water and the
high hills with the pretty houses
reaching up to the blue sky There
is castle at Helsingborg, once a
fortress which defended the country |
from the hostile Danes, now a big
picturesque tower with gardens and |
promenadeS |
After the square meal we went nm
the hill to the castle and listened to n
Swedish band. The Swedes are a
musical people and the band played so
well l decided not to climb to the ton
OF the tower. After one has had
good meal and listens to good music
he doesn't care if castle is 800 years
old and If he can see Denmark by
mounting 200 steps. Hslslngborg is
right across the sound from Halsinpor.
Hamlet's castle, and a good modern
gun could shoot from one to the
other.
