Both We're BarbarOus.

Prof. Starr, the famous ethnologist,
was in his humorous and whimsical way
accusing women Of barbarism, says the
New York Tribune.
"And she is not only barbarous-she is
illogical and Inconsistent" he exclaimed.

There was nest in the tree, and from q

"You wicked little boy" said my com

Buy q Farm.

Buy a farm, young man. No matter
how small it may be; buy farm and pre-
pare it so that your land will provide you
a living. Twenty years from now the
man who owns his farm will be indepen-
dent and will have at his command the
means of livelihood. The expansion
of manufacturers cannot 60 on forever
and there will come a day in this country,
as there has in others, when the supply
will exceed the demand and the only alb
solutely sure occupation will be farming.
Buy farm while one may be had

Honesty is Best In Business.

A liar may succeed for a time, out
eventually he will pay the piper. Such
a lesson is conveyed in the following in

you say?"
I'D say it."

aHow much would you work fors" he
inquired very seriously.
"One hundred dollars week," the boy
answered in business-like tone.
"One hundred dollars week?' re-
sponded the grocery man.
with percentage after the first two
weeks" said the boy coolly. "You see,"
he went on, "frst-class liars come high,
and if you need them in your business
you'll have to pay the price, but I'll tell
the truth and work for three dollars
week." The boy caught the grocer at
his own game and got the job.

Or when the winds of winter hit US
We shall have no pants at all.

Hot Stuff to Come Yet.

Richland distillery matter is yet to be
gone into and the ex-members of the
board of directors are to be put on the

again to be presented to the committee.
Representative Lyon and Senator
Christensen, who have "borne the burden
and heat of day" in this committee work
and have dragged up mass of evidence
and presented with consummate skill and
ability, are men of undinching courage,
physical and moral, as well as men of
brains and great energy and zeal. 1t was
not their fault that the facts we're not
brought out as to whether material pros
perity has blessed the members of the
board as reward for managing the great
moral institution. The threats which were
made on the floor of the Supreme Court
room the morning the Newberry wit
nesses were to testify only sharpened
their desire to do their duty by Their
State.
Gall of these matters are coming out,

TOMORROW NIGHT.

The more one seeks for the orig
inal source of the mythical legend of
the Holy Grail, which is the found
alton of Richard Wagner's beautiful
spectacle of "Parsifal" the more one
becomes bewildered at the many diff
ferent explanations that present them
selves. Eminent writer's and schol-
ars have presented their individual
views. arriving at many different con
clusions. They all agree. however. in
admitting that the legend, in its var
ious forms, existed long ago and be-
fore Christianity became so potent
a factor in the worlds history. From
n close study of the subject one would
come to the belief that the legend, in
practically the same form, but with
a different direct meaning, had been
created in pagan lands of the earlier
antiquity. and later had been adapt
ed by the earlier Christian people
and church in its mysterious plays,
and so handed down to us in its pres
ent different forms. Certain it is
however. that Wagner must have
made a close study of the vast mater
ial bearing upon the subject. and in
the production of "Parsifal" gives
us and idylic story of composite ma
ture that is SO eXquisitely told and
contains such grand moral lesson.
that it will live and shine whever
Christianity reigns as long as Chris
tianity endures.
