The Logical Question.

A little Philadelphia boy was taken
by his father for his first visit to the

asked, Papa, what animal is that?''
Reading the sign tackled up to one

son, is prong horned antelope"
Kin he blow his horns? was the
question that promptly followed.

The Old National Road.

MagaZine.L
The old National Road! What a play
Of romance
Is called up by the name! and the
shadows advance
From their corners obscure at the back
of the stage,
And evolve into shapes--into scenes Of
an age
Whose sweet graces were too quaint
and homely to last,
And are gone with the roses ana rue
of the past!
LIE the bard, to the strains OF his Tyre,

To that Highway of Hope--the old Ma

meadows 1t crawled,
Thru the forest primeval, DER hills
granite walled:
On and up, up and on, till it, conquered
the crest
or the mountains and wound away
into the West.
Twas the Highway Of Hope! And the
pilgrims who trod
1t were the Lords of the Woodland and
Sons of the Sod;
And the hope of their hearts was to
win an abode
At the end--the far end of the National

The Old National Road! 1t stretched on

Toward that land where humanity's

Past the spring on the mountain, the
rill in the dale
BY the hut on the hillside, the inn in
the vale.
And the beings it loved and the peo-
pie it knew
Were untutored and primitive, kindly,
and true;
And the face of the midsummer sua
ever glowed
With smile for the faithful old Ma
tional Road.
From the foot of the mountains still
westward 1t trailed,
Till the footprints of settlements fal-
tered-and failed;

that were bland,
Over turbulent streams that no bridge

But the Rainbow of Promise; and end

Arguments and Epithets

Major w. H. Lewellyn. United States
attorney for New Mexico. was in
Washington recently and was a specta-
tor in the senate when the epithet
liar was passed during the debate on
the railroad rate bill. TO reporter OF
the Las Vegas Optic Mr.. Lleyellyn said
the exchange of superheated epithets
by senators reminded him of some OF
the sessions of the Deep Water con-
ventions along In the early '90's, when
the fight was on between Arkansas
and Sabine passes for deep water far-
Dor improvements. and the debates
waxed loud and fierce between the RI
val Texas statesmen who were dele
gates to the conventions. At one of the
conventions held at Denver Governor
Barney Gibbs, Texas character. be-

DRUGGISTS AND .UoPE FIENDs.'

Physicians, when they talk freely,
are agreed that the habit Of using in
furious drugs is one that has grown
frightfully in the past decade. Drug
gists. when they talk freely, agree with
thet physicians Today there are dozen
s.dope fiends'' where one existed ten
years ago. If a list Of the habitual
users of Injurious narcotics were pub
lished in any Iowa City it would be
appalling; by its length and the names
1t included. Cocaine is comparatively
a new drug, but it numbers its wrecks
by the thousands and tens of thou
sands. Every druggist knows the facts
and most of them are free to speak in
condemnation of the ease with which
powerful and injurious drugs may be
and are procured.
1t is up to the physicians and drug
matter. 1t is an open secret that no
habftual user of any drug need go long
without it if he has the purchase price

enceless men in other trades and pro-
LESSONS, are ready to trade the means
Of self obstruction for money Perhaps
there are physicians not above furnish
ing prescriptions to men and women
who ought not to have them. It is
time for the reputable druggists and
physicians everywhere to ask for more
astringent legislation and enact more
stringent rules.
