THEN AND NOW.
Hampton Chronicie]

Twenty years ago the farmers son
came to town the week before Christ
mas driving team of OK cattle to a
long, low wagon with board across
the box. He was dressed in homespun
clothing with a fur cap made from the
skin of a muskrat, his boots were of the
coarsest cowhide and roughly made.
His mittens were homeknit and he
brought with him forty bushels Of
wheat. His purchases of Christmas
gifts consisted of some powder and
bullets. new shawl for mother, book
for father and some layer raisins for
the family's Christmas dinner. The
whole expenditure did not exceed
twenty dollars.
His son drove in last week from the
same farm, he was driving a team of
thoroughbreds which would be worth
five hundred dollars on the market and
they were drawing stylish road wag-
on with rubber tires. The son was
dressed in the latest fashion, his cloth
ing having been made by tailor. His
shoes were of the latest style and his
hands We're encased within a pair of
kid gloves. His seal skin cap was we'll

Christmas presents galore, from a
diamond ring for his sweetheart to a
set~of silverware for his mother He
gave checks on the local bank for
them. They amounted to ten times
what his father had spent twenty
years ago.
Iowa then and now is shown in no
palmer manner than by the descrip-
ton Of the financial condition of her
people then and now. For the prog
ress made by Iowa is pictured by her
people. The prosperity of the state is
attested by them. Iowa's land owners
are wandering in every part of the
globe, seeking healthy recreation and
pleasure, and twenty years ago the
same people were saving their money
on an Iowa homestead.

HOW HE WORKS
Pen Sketch of the President in the
 Executive Office

saw him again few days later for an hour or so in the executive wing of the White House--an hour of eompara- tive and accidental slackness of the business portion of the day. But his private secretary came in often enough with affairs that needed attention to give me a glimpse of him in his work ing moments. A word or two of terse inquiry, a swift, devouring glance through the documents and then, in a flash the decision, a letter dictated, a problem solved. It seemed an involun- tary, automatic, unconscious process, a capacity that by long use had become an instinct. He was quite staggering and outspoken that morning.
 All Europe at the time was ringing with his curt dismissal of one of his ambassadors at a great continental cap ital, an incident of which a good deal has been heard in the last week or two, and which is not yet by any means at an end. He explained to me-to me, a mere casual, wandering journalist-his version of the case and why he had been compelled to act as he had acted. There was budget of confidential cor respondence. connected with the affair, and he handed it over to me. cit might interest you to look through it." he said.
 | He spoke openly of his future pro gram, mentioning among other things, that he intended proposing an inherit ance tax and filling the first cabinet vacancy by appointing Jew. Both in tentions he has since fulfilled He hotly denounced a whole number of people. Most of them were senators, some of them were the sensational journalists whom he was soon to christen. the muck rakers, and some were the people who could not see that expedieney was the essenc eof politics.
 And lastly he begun discussing him self. A paper had complained because he was not a genius. "I know I am not genius,' he said; and then, "by the by, was it you, or some other Eng lishman who said that pork butcher could understand mel" My memory ran over all the indiscretions I had been guilty of and finally lighted on some such dictum. I owned up. Because, ' said the president. "I want to tell you you were absolutely right. "-Sidney Brooks in the Reader.
