Book Must Have Been Funny, but No
One Knew What Is Was.

1t must have been very funny
story, The type looked funny from
across the aisle of the car. the pic
lures looked funny, and the young
lady who was reading it doubled up
in fits of stitied laughter every few
minutes. The young man in the seat
with her could not help stealing a
glance at the pages of the book which
was evidently so funny, but whose
cover was carefully doubled back out
of sight, and soon he began to laugh
as he unblushingly followed the story
page after page, shaking with sup
pressed merriment
The woman in the seat at right an
giles became interested and looked
over the girls shoulder. Presently
her face broadened into grin and
soon she was cOnvulsivcly shaking.
The man in the seat across smiled at
the scene. A boy few seats down
the aisle grinned sympathetically. A
darky still further down showed all
his white teeth. The contagion spread
until the car was nearly on the verge
of Mysteries. when the falr reader got
up to leave the train. yet no one but
the girl herself had any idea as to
what the book was.

SLEEP AND NERVE REST.

A Necessity That Is Overlooked In
the Modern Strenuous Life.
In the days when eight hours for
sleep were nominally regarded as an
hour too long for any self respecting
individual the eXhausting character OF
modern life was unknown. There was
less wealth and more contentnent; less
competition and more security; fewer
distractions. hut more simplicity.
Work was easier. slower and care,
anxiety, apprehension--in word wor-
ry-did not feed like the worm i tn
bud. upon the hours exempt from toll.

the same set of muscles in any other
form of physical exercise to intense
and unremitting labor But that is
what we do with the immediate agent
of our minds the brain machine. We
cannot watch its operations. We often
assume that its movements are rs light
and endless as the ripples of the uni
versal air. We know and nevertheless
we forget that the brain is a substantial
apparatus as liable to depreciation as

nothing is more certain than this-that

hardly changed traditional habit. We
keep later and still later hours. We
catch our trains in the morning as
usual. There is no doubt whatever that
we burn the candle at both ends with
unprecedented disregard Of the laws of
psychological economy, and that the
amount of rest we allow for nerve and

This is the other side to the argu

from punishment, becaus Of the terrible
wrong committed against the young
woman who afterward became his wife.
And it is well to weigh both sides be-
fore public sentiment let's sympathy

the members of the Thaw jury will be
guided by rules OF justice rather than
by sentimentaity. To free Thaw from
blame for act of murder, simply on ac-
count of sympathy for his wife, would
be a bid for deluge of other crimes of
similar character. Sympathy for Eve
Ign Thaw is all right she was appar-
emily more sinned against than SHINING.
But the defense needs something more
than sympathy, worked out through the
so-called unwritten law, to justify
Thaw in taking the law into his own
hands and committing most serious
offense against the law and society it
self. Two wrongs can never make a
right. Neither can one crime justify

Pro viding for fhe future.

There is one problem that dominates
the home, an obtrusive, pervasive prob
lem that ofttimes fills the whole horizon
of life, one that, like Banquos ghost
will no down." it is the ever-present
question Of home financing. When we
have mastered the ito have, the prob
lem Of the TO hold" confronts us. 1t is
the question Of providing for the home
which can never be properly answered
until we realize that provide, > is a
verb that should ever be corrugated in
two lenses present and future.
There is in our American life, too
often, a blind optimism in living up to
an income, in assuming that because
the sun Of prosperity shines warmly to-
day there is no need of providing UNI
brsllas for possible rainy tomorrow.
Those who Wisely live within an income
rarely have to face the problem of try
ing to live without one. There are two
simple guarantees against future power
~ and dependence on others. two great
safeguards for home and family a

the home, bulwark of loves fore

DOCUMENT THAT MAKES HISTORY
Wisconsin Railroad Commission Decides
for Maximum Fare of = cents.

The state railroad commission handed
down Monday morning decision order
ing the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul,
the Chicago and Northwestern and the
Chicago. St. Paul, Minneapolis and Oma-
ha railroads to reduce their passenger
fares on all lines within the state business
in Wisconsin from a maximum of cents
a mile to a maximum Of ) cents mile.
The rate must be put into effect with
in twenty days.
The continuance of the sale Of mile
age books. party tickets, communication
tickets and the like is ordered.
Strong recommendation is made for
the sale Of 50O-mile books, good for
year, for $40, and for giving the pur-
chasers and members Of their families
the right to use these books.
The proceedings to compel the Wis
consin Central road to reduce its fare is
not decided yet. This and other smaller
lines are governed by conditions differ
ent from those which govern the large
lines and The commission feels that 1t
should give more study to these phases
of the subject
The commission also decides that low
freight rates are vastly more important
than low passenger fares. This opinion
is based on conditions similar to the
following for illustration When car
load Of coal is shipped from Milwaukee
to Mineral Point, nominally the con
signor or the consignee pays the freight.
In reality neither pays it. The freight
is actually paid BY the consumer of the
coal. He must use the coal. He may not
want to ride, even at 2 cents per mile.
