FlLOSIFY OF Folly.
What We Should Learn.

hdl We OuVuIU LtdiU.
Learn to attend strictly to
your own business a vary i'm
portcnt point" this is especially
true of those who have no bust
ness to which they may attend
"a person unfortuant enough to
have no business should immed-
iatiy get too busy attending to
their own business.
Learn the art of saving kind
and encouraging things -espeCia-
ly to the young"
This advice should be necessary
only to those whome Adams fall
hurt worst than it should have
done, and whoes Family Tree if
correctly dra avn wood resemble a
cork screw,
Learn to avoid all ill-natured
remarks and everything that will
create foritiOn.
It's poor spec!man of a per-
son thatneei this advice-SuCh
one lives in too dark and distinct
a moral atmosphere for anyone
to seek his companionship-
Learn to stop grunting-leave
that for the Hogs, if you can't see
any good in this world-keep the
bad to yonrself-
It's as we'll to cast your Pearls
before two Legged swine as be-
fore Four Legged sort-the form
er will erunt even more disgust
ingly than the latter.
Learn to hide your aches and
pains under pleasant smile"
that is good advice sometimes
but to tell me no one cares
wheather you have Headache,
TOOtbache or Rheumatism or
any other suffering-is Just lit
tie pessimistiC for your Unkils
Human Nature-for "A person of
any Hart or Faith could not for
moment entertain such an
Heartless idea.
Learn not to tattle or SANDER
don't listen 10 ito do so shows
a weak mind and an evil Heart"
Evan Planters who dide 1874
years before before Christ
Speaks of such characters thus.
you tittle-tattlers and those
who listen to slander-by my
good will. should be Horged the
former by their Tongues-the
latter by their ears.
Learn not to be covetous-"
a coveteous man is an idolater it
makes no odds whether he stands
i'll the Pulpit or sits in the Pew
he will have an aweful lot of
repentting to do before he gets
within a million miles of Heaven
and if by nook or crook he evear
squeezes his little selfish soul
THROUGH the Pearly gates - he |
would imediatly organize a stock |
Company TO dig up the gold |
pavements of the new Jerusalem
and send out agents all over the
universe to sell mining stock.

Police Making Al Effort 10 Break
Up Big Gang Of Lumber Thieves
Looting Railway Company
MANY CORDS OF WOOD STOLEN
More Than Twenty Loads Of Wood Have
Been Stolen From the Railway
Company During the Past
Few Months

The officials of the Northwestern
Railway Company have rebelled
against the custom of furnishing fire
wood FOR some ten families residing
about the railway tracks and this
morning warrants were issued for the
arrest Of niue men who are charged
with stealing large amount of lun-
Der from the company.
Chief of Police O'Hare and his men
began the work of serving the war
rants Just after dinner today, but the
list of the men arrested will not be
made public until all of the warrants
have been served. 1t is claimed that
hundreds of dollars worth of lumber
has been stolen from the company
and in most cases the thetts were the
work of men and not boys. Seven of
the men named in the warrants are
of mature years while two of them are
younger.
The men had plan of stealing the
posts which were used by the railway
company to hold lumber on flat cars
and as fast as the cars were unloaded
in the local yards the men would
make the rounds of the cars at night
and remove the posts. 1t is claimed
that in some cases the posts have been
hauled away by the wagon LOAD. AT
one house where a suspect lived the
police found more tina three cords of
wood which had been cut from stand
ards stolen from the railway company
and at other pla ices various amounts
from a few slaves to two cords were
found The thefts have been going
on since the first of July and the rail-
way officials claim that for the last
few years these people have depended
on the railway company for their
winters supply of fuel.
Kenosha is not the only city which
has offered work for the railway
detectives as it is claimed that the
stealing of this lumber is common all
along the line and the losses to the
company for the past year have been
unusually large. The standards are
of the best lumber that can be secured
and for this reason the loss to the
company is even greater.
The police claim that the Kenosha
men have been most daring in steal
ing the lumber and that in several
cases they have been seen to deliber-
ately drive up to the cars and take
the standards. At one time when a
railway men demonstrated the man
Uyoc 4bvaa +eued with assault
1t is claimed that there is strong
chain of evidence against the men
and that the police will be able to con-
vict them In some cases the amount
of lum Der taken was sufficient to war
rant an arrest for grand larceny but
in most Of the cases petit larceny
will be alleged.

A HARD SITUATION
The Railroads of the United
States Seek Uniform Rate
Classification
MANAGERS TO TAKE STEPS

A long step forward in the simplif.
cation of the freight situation
throughout the United States was
taken Thursday at a meeting in the
Central Freight Association head
quarters at Chicago. The joint COM
mittee, composed of representatives
from the three classification terri
tories, decided on ratification, and
within thirty days new committee
will be appointed to undertake the
solution of this problem.
The difficulties arising from diversi-
fed classification have been many and
varied. Only recently the interstate
commerce commission suggested that
since the different classification of
freight in different parts of the coun-
try had been responsible for large
part of the friction between shipper
and carrier it would be wise to adopt
one that would apply generally.
The task presented to this new COM
mittee will be a difficult one. Roads
operating east of the Mississippi
river and north of the Ohio and Pc
tomac use what is known as the off
cial classification; those south of the
Ohio and Potomac and east of the
Mississippi the southern classified
ton, and those west of the Mississ-
ippi the western classification. Not
the least dificu1s proposition in this
revision is to find basis that will be
equitable to roads operating under
dissimilar circumstances. In the east,
where heavy traffic originates and
hauls are mparatively short, a
lower rate can be maintained than Ia
the west, where traffic is sparse and
the hauls are long. In view of this
fact it is proba BILE that siding scale
will have to be adopted.

Eels.


The cells form the suborder of the
apoda, or footless fish, SO called from
the absence Of ventral fms. These fish
assume form very similar to the SER
penis. Although on a hasty examination
they seem to be devoid of scales. yet
when the skin is dried very minute
scales may be seen through the semi
transparent outer skin and may be
easily detached by carefully separating
the two skins. Eels inhabit muddy
ponds and rivers and are common In
many canals. They are susceptible to
cold and constantly descend tie rivers
to deposit their spawn in the sea,
after which the young when Matched
work their way UP the rivers, thereby
precisely reversing the habits Of the
salmon. They are capable of living
out Of water for long time and often
make voluntary land excursions, either
for the purpose of avoiding an insur-
mountable fall or in search of frogs or
worms, on which they feed In the
winter, while they are lying torpid in
the mud, multitudes are taken by eel
spears-many pronged instruments,
whose prongs are feathered with re-
curved barbs, which, when pushed
into the mud, entangle the cells and
Effectually prevent their escape.
