Eye natures walks, shoot folly as II files. ;

-HE weather is discouraging to those who work
the land Several sweet pease eighty
suffering from frosted tendrils, the cucum-

up the edges and wait. Time is flying and the
early frosts due in few months Have you put

Several times have appeared in the garden in
low sleeves and garden hat with rake poised dantily
and our dmped elbow showing temptingly, but there
nothing doing. You throw enthusiasm
into garden work when nothing grows but the gas bill
and you have to rush in every few moments to throw
;oal the furnace.
Forward turn forward, o, time in thy fight, ,
Turn the summer, please; do it tonight;
am aweary of cold and of rain
Make it, o weather man, again.
Turn the heat that will sizzle and fry,
Let complain again that it's dry,
We aweary of throwing COAL
Turn on the tropics, man; turn of the POLE
Berkman Emma Goldman IS anarchist, tells the Chi
cago press that he has good joke the capitalists
They saved him eight years his prison sentence
without intending to do He says:
''Shortly after I went to Jail United States Dis
trct Attorney Ingraham, capitalist named Jacobs,
and another fellow convicted of having counter
feited revenue stamps They We're sent to jail Their
friends tried to get them out by having the legislature
pass good behavior law. The bill went thru. Then
the attorney general of the United States held that
it did affect federal prisoners. The capitalists
stayed in, while the state prisoners time was cut
down, and I am OUT
Us capitalists to be getting it handed out to

Doc Bixby, who had been giving in the Nebraska
State Journal menus for series of very tooth
Breakfasts suddenly disappeared from his
in that great family journal and not for two
weeks Then the doctor appeared again in this con-
trite and chastened spirit:
''One of the most difficult things to recover from
is real stirring and searching attack of dyspepsia
The condition is acquired not by trifing
deviation from the plain of hygenic living but
from long continued abuse of the digestive organs
from violations of organic law that merit sentence
of death, but which usually result in long days ana
nights of torture and howlings beside which the
plants of Job sound like anthems of praise Having
acquired general catarrhal condition of the
amentary canal, do not go to the family physician
with the expectation that he will give you
potential poison that will make you whole in the
of a week two. You simply in for it, and must
settle down to siege of abstemiousness that Will
make you very tired. You will be obliged to watch
others eat strawberry shortcake while your repast
consists of pint of hot water and four light
of matted milk with thin mite of toasted pumper-
nickel. Today you will feel that you the high
road to recovery, and tomorrow at $3.50 am. your
stomach will distress you seriously than at any
time since the first breakdown. And the gloom of
the situation will be dense the shadows of night
in the primeval forest. You will be full of terrors
and apprehensions and these crazy children of the
imagination will be noisy than the Little
Bulls and the Little Lncolns' in the midst of "a
baseball contest. Dyspepsia has compensatinl
pleasures while it lasts It is the devils from the
time Of the first invasion until all the mischief has
been repaired, and that takes time.''
When reading Mr.. Bixby' breakfast menus last win
ter and spring often took few moments from worl
and trembed for the DOCTOR Then little later tn.
attacked the Christian Scientists in his column
and showed them the fooishness and general stupdit,
of their ways. And it is also generally understood
in Nebraska that Blk refuses to do any work in tn
garden to shovel before breakfast, but re
pairs at from his dreamful couch of repose tt
