Dry Wat0r.

Ut has been SD wet for the last three or four years,'' remarked Truthful James, that a good many people have forgot how dry it used to be. 1 remem- Der one year when the Missouri river was dusty all the way down from Kan sas City to the Mississippi. Of course the river was running all the while, but the water in it got so dry that 1t turned to dust and blew away. l took a boat down the river at that tkne, but it was so dusty on the boat that you couldn't see the hind end of it when you was standing on the front end It was little the worst ever see My mouth got so much grit and dust in 1t that l could.strike match on the roof of it any time. One day the boat got stuck & fifteen feet of Missouri river water It was so dry and dusty that the wheel couldn't turn. What did we do? We'll, sir, we went out and hired q farmer to haul fresh well water for fifteen miles to mix with the river wa ter until 1t was thin enough to run the boat through. Kansas City Journal.

Meaning of the Word "Omaha."

UkC0u1n8 V1 SAG WOEN ,V~6Aas
 The name "Omaha" bears testimony to the long journey of the people and reveals some of the causes which brought about this breaking up into distinct tribes. It is composed of two words, which signify going against the current" or up the stream The Omahas were the people who went up the stream. while the Quapaws, their near of kin, went, as their name re- veals, with the current" or down the stream. The traditions of both these peoples say that the parting occurred during hunting expedition, each divi- sion finally settling in the lands whith- CT they had wandered apart. This epochal hunt must have been centuries ago, for the Quapaws bore their de scriptive name in 1540, being men toned in the Portuguese. narrative of De Soto's expedition as then living on the Arkansas river. where they dwelt until 1889, when they ceded their long occupied lands to the United States.

 Instances of eggs within eggs arc re ported annually in the live stock peri odicais, both With poultry and pigeons. Such cases are examples of retarded laying. The oviary channel Is. through some unusual exciting state. deficient in lubricating fluid. The one egg, tenn porarily stopped, is incased in tue sec ond which is thus formed around it. This accounts for the abnormal size of the completed egg, which is eventu. ally eyicted, at times with much pain and difficulty, and occasions death not infrequently through egg binding, as it Is termed.

 George A. Driggs of the American Pin Co says Waterville has nothing to be ashamed of when talk about people wanting something for noth- ing is going around. We laid our own water mains,' he said, put up every copper of the expense and maintained them until the receipts from water rents netted l0 per cent on the money invested, and then the city gave us back the cost of con- struction and took them of our hands. That is the only way to lay water mains when people want the service before it pays the city to fur nish it. If had my way Waterville would come into the full taxation dis trict. It would be benefit to Wa terbury and Waterville would be bet ter of, too. However, we are safe on the water question. We met that outlay ourselves"
