INFANT MORTALITY.

The attention of the Town Council at
Johannesburg. Transvaal. was last year
directed to the fact that ont of eighty
forty-four of them had died of dysen-
terry. An investigation with view of
tracing the source of the disease was
authorized Under the best of condi-
tions attacks of dysentery are very
prevalent among children in warm

cases the lives of the little ones can be
saved by the used of Chamberlain s

few days ago a man was arrested
at Waikiki for assault and battery on
q Chinaman. He was landed in jail
Saturday night and held their until
Tuesday when he was fined SO and
costs for the offense but even then
was held in jail without being given a
chance to go out and get the money
to secure his liberation.
Back of the arrest is the same old
story of police negligence and police
laxity as to matters of gambling.
w stokes lives at Waikiki in the
lane in which St. Augustfnes church
is located. In the shadow, almost OF
the spire, according to allegations OF
Stokes. che ia games have been gong
on for eleven months without inter-
ruptfon Two banks operate in that
community and evidently with pl ONT
and without police molestation. A po-
lice officer calls at that lane regularly
for nearby is a police box from Wnlch
he turns in his report. His horse Is
watered there also. Being so close by,
the Chinese gamblers ply their trade
without moestation.
Stokes said he notlhed Henry NIu8
of the operation of these games. but
nothing came of it. Stokes says that
the games are carried on in a manner
which is designed to rob their patrons.

i"Ah, ha," cried Billy, 81 have thought

"Where else would you think

"For in our nogsins are our brainworks

And there the gradients for our

Our feet don't think, nor neither do
our legs;
They're only made to use for walking
pegs.
Our hands and arms don't think little
bit;
And do our eyes and ears and nose
think? Nit"
Then Mike with knowing wisdom,
smiled a smile,
And Billy, scratching slowly his head
the while,
Said: "S'posen all of us 'cept brains d

Iowa is my state. The golden-rod is
its state flower It is the leading state
in the production Of corn.
1t is well-settled, and good, civil
lized. respectable state, though If you
should go to Illinois. the people there
would think 1t wild one, for it is not
(nearly) as old, and so it is not as well
settled.
Des Moines is the capital Of the
state. The capital was first at Burling-
ton, and from there it was removed to
Iowa City. the next year, and from
there to Des Moines, in 1857. Des
Moines is in Polk county.
There are SO counties in the state.
The population is some 100000.
There are few Indians and Negroes
in Iowa, but most Of the people are
white.
Iowa was admitted into the union in
1876. It was the twenty-seventh state
admitted. The nickname for Iowa is
"The Hawkeye State" There are two
songs for Iowa The titles are "The
Hawkeye State, and Iowa.
Iowa is part of the Louisiana Pur'
chase, and once belonged to France

my STATE.

Kansas is the central state of the
union. 1t is 400 miles long and 200
miles wide. The climate of Kansas
is subject to considerable changes, but
neither excessive cold nor heat contin-
ues for more than a short period of
time, and farmers often work In the
field throughout the winter months
with very little interruption.
The soil of Kansas is fertile, but diff
ference in rainfall makes some places
yield larger wheat crops than others.
In the western part of the state, which
was part of the "Great American Des-
ert," the supply Of rain is limited, but
this has been remedied to some extent
by irrigation.
Kansas ranks among first in produc-
ton of wheat; it also holds a high posi-
ton among the states that produce
corn, oats, hay, barley, lead, zinc, coal,
salt and oil.
The building Of railroads began in
1860. and today nearly every county in
the state has one or more lines pass
ing through It, The railroad mileage
within the state is 5000 miles.
The state institutions are located as
lOllOWS. DSdl anu DulLlD, at NloGIiC,
for the blind at Kansas City; feeble.
minded children at Winfield; Soldiers
Orphans Home at Atchison: State In,
sane asylums at Topeka and Osawato
ME; Reform School for Boys at To
peka; Industrial School for Girls, at
Beloit, and state penitentiary at Ian
sing, are all models in the way OF
management and compare favorably
with like institutions in any Of the
states.
Kansas was part of the Louisiana
Purchase, bought in 1903, was orga
nized as territory in 1854, by the
passage Of the "Kansas-Nebraska Act.
In January, 1861, Kansas was admit
ted into the union as free state. The
largest cities, in order, are as follows

Have Done This Summer

cherries. Then 1 came here last week.
I went out in the field. and as they cut
the oats, I helped shock the oats, and
I help the drive the cows and horses
to the barn from the pasture and wa
tered the horses and sometimes the
cows in the pond in the pasture, and
feed the chickens and horses. I help
to gather apples that have fallen from
the trees, and picked a gallon Of
blackberries. and 1 have helped carry
water and put it in the separator, so
that the milk would get cold, and tho
cream could raise. Well I guess thess
