So much is said about the duties
of children that their rights are
overlooked. Their duties are Of
ten strictly enforced upon them,
but their rights frequently ignored.
This is partly on account of ignor-
ance, but chiefly because of a lack
of thought. Most parents desire
the highest good for their chill
dren, and are willing to make any
reasonable sacrifice for them, but
pay little attention to their rights,
if they recognize them as their
rights at all. No one would deny
to children their right to such sup
port and education as their par
ents are able to give them. But
beyond this very general admis-
sion not many recognize any de-
finite obligation.

ply to all homes, but there is q
general tendency to neglect the
claims of the family for outside
pleasure. We have met some
women, who when ask II they
keep house, blushingly reply, "We
do light housekeeping, because
we dislike boarding."
It is the person rather than the
occupation that adds dignity to
labor. There are those who can
beautify the most mental occu-
patton or service and there are
others who can degrade the most
honorable calling.
The busy men and women of the
world are they who have attained
to greatness. Many such have
endured %hardships and practiced
rigid economy to enable them to
meet the demands of a large fami-
ly and the greatest men this coun-
try has produced have been men
who have labored with hands and
brain, after acquiring a compet-
ency, remembering the years that
are gone, admit that their working
years were their happiest years.
Honest poverty should be re-
spected and not scorned. 1t was
in the homes of the lowly that we
oftenest find Christ when upon the
earth, and in our day it can be
tr%uthfully said that we meet Him
there oftener than elsewhere.

ONE ON A CLARK.

The house ways and means COM
mittee was giving a hearing on a
bill to take the tax off alcohol.
One witness was asked how a GER
tain kind of alcohol came to be
made, but he could nottell. Champ
Clark informed the committee
that it was invented by a Missouri
convict who pounded the sour corn
pone they gave him for breakfast
until it distilled into "the stuff
now under Investigation" This
veracious narrative was received
with shouts of laughter, which,
however, did not disconcert the
advocate of the alcohol in quest
ion. He waited until the laugh
subsidized and then remarked
quietly: "That story proves what
I have alwave believed, that all
the bright men of Missouri were
put in the penitentiary." Mr.
Clark thought for some time, but
nothing occurred to him and he
did not speak.

DIGNITY OF LABOR.

We believe the friends of this
department., and if we feel the
pulse of reader correctly, that
means all our subscribers, will
read with relish a few thoughts on
woman's work and compensation
for the same.
One of the fashionable sins of
the present time is the sin of idle
ness. This may not apply to
"club ladies'" of our town, but
this evil exists to an alarming ex-
tent, especially so in larger cities
where competent ladies fit away
time as if there were no claims up
on them in the busy marts of life.
There are persons whom thestress
OF circumstances compel to work,
but the work is too often done un-
der protest. There is q growing
distaist for housekeeping. While
all honest work is honorable there
is nothing more so than the cares
of a home.
The wages of women were never
so high as now, yet it is almost
impossible to procure the service
of a good woman at any price, for
the reason that labor is looked up
on as degrading. Young women
turn to all sorts of Office work,
where snares and temptations be-
set them, because they can dress
better and keep their hands whittier
than they can when doing kitchen
work.
} The wives and mothers of q cen-
fury ago were proud to exhibit the
result of their industry in the
manufacturer of cloth and the
making of garments for their FAM
lilies. There is no call for such
work in u day, yet there are
enough calls to duty in every
home to employ the housekeeper.
Home to many women means
nothing morethan a laundry where
they take their clothes to be wash
ed and ironed; to the man a place
to eat and sleep, their evenings
being largely spent at clubs or
billiard halls. The old fashioned
home keepers have become almost
q lost quantity. Scienties of various
kinds occupy much of their time.

AN AUTO "TRIP IN LYON co.
Four Emporia Enthusiasts Make
Twenty Miles in Hours.

John Martin, the machinist, and his
brother, with John Wiggam and Frank

bile cooled considerably by an expert
ence they had yesterday. They went
to Eureka to bring home W. W. Fin
ney's touring car, which had been left
there several days ago on account Of
the mud. They made the trip from
Eureka to Madison in about two
hours.
At Madison a tire broke, and an ex-
ira tire they had with them was put
on, the change requiring over an hour.
They started gaily northWard, and
had gone only q few miles when the
new tire exploded with a report like a
shotgun. They patched up the broken
tire and started again, when again the
tire exploded and went down on them.
1t was no longer possible to patch it,
but Frank Wood had several copies of
the Gazette with him. and these were
put inside the outer tube of the tire and
kept it full of hot air until the papers
were all chewed uD by the friction Of
the tire on the rough roads. Then the
tire was taken completely off, and an
attempt was made to run the machine
on the metai'tc rim.
After a few miles of travel it was
seen that the rim of the wheel was
being damaged without protection

The Standard, It Is Charged, Is
Reducing Oil Rates.
Have Not Lowered Gasoline to
Compete With Gas.
AFTER INDEPENDENTS.
Asserted That Opposition Keeps
the Prices Down.
CherryyaIe and Other Firms
Help Kansas People.

Iongton, kan. June 19.-The Stand
ard has begun cutting prices on the
independent refners. For more than a
year the price of kerosene and engine
oil has remained stationary. On Thurs
day of last week some of the dealers
received a little postal, notifying them
of the reduction of 1 cent a gallon on
kerosene and engine oils. Gasoline is
still sold at the same price. AS there
is a state law in Kansas preventing the
cutting OF prices in one locality with
out cutting all over the state. the re-
duction is general.
Independent rehners have been ex-
pecting some such action as this be-
cause the business Of the Independent
lef1neries has grown steadily and the
Standard, it is said, has been losing
trade. Not only are the refineTies now
in operation selling all of their output,
but there are several independent re-
hneries building, which viii get into
the game some time within the next
90 days. The independent refners point
TO the last reduction as emphatic evil
dence of the saving they have accom-
plished for the people of Kansas. The
reduction amounts to 50 cents a barrel,
and, as the daily consumption of refin-
ed oils in Kansas is approximately .
600 barrels. the saving viii amount to
elrUvv ud@- MS IS a uHect saving OF
S365000 per year to the consumers of
refined oil in the state.
The independent refiners assert that
by their establishment and competition
they have already saved the people
more than $500 600. Early i'm the game.
when the second independent refinery
in Kansas was established at Cherry
vale the Standard cut the price a cents

Not only has there been money
saving to the people but Kansas con
sumers today get the best grade of oil
sold in the west. The Independents sup
ply the very highest grade kerosene
which can be refined and this has
forced the Standard Oil company to dc
likewise.
The action of the Standard viii not
hurt the Independent refining interests
in the state for the reason that the
refineries own their own wells and pro-
duce their own oil. and they can pro-
duce oil from their own wells and re-
fine it cheaper than the Standard car

pendents hedged in the matter of OBJ

the united sentiment Of the people. It
IS fact that in many towns In Kan

pledges that they would not buy oil
from the Standard as long as they could
fget it from an independent plant. Not
