E A RLY RISERS
The famous little pills.
WHEN A MANS TIRED.

A noise that you will not hear when
you are rested will be perfectly dis
tracing when you are tired. You will
go over and shut a window; you will
walk around aimlessly; you will swear
at the faint cackle of a distant graphic
phone. If there is a light above you
at an evening lecture, it will hurt
your eyes almost beyond endurance.
Instead of making the nervous system
less responsive instrument, fatigue
makes it more responsive. More re-
sponsive, but less seryiceable.
And at the same time that you have
increased irratibility you have de-
creased power. You can take things
up, hut you cannot do them hard.
You can't put vim and snap into any
thing. You can't memorize well.
You can't think consecutively; ycrr
mind will constantly wander to some
thing else.
Irratibility weakness-these two
words belong together. A man who is
constantly fatigued can't work well
or live we'll; and he is very hard to
live with.
Every man who is anxious to hit his
Job between the eyes should make a
study of his own fatigue curve; and he
should put the moral of it. to heart
To know when it's time to quit--and
to quit when it's time is one of the
first lessons in the primer of efficiency.

WANT MORE TIME
To uni DAD GRAIN

Madison, Oct. IL.
The Milwaukee chamber of COM
presented to the railroad COM
against the several railroads on ac-
count of the regulations in force III
Milwaukee regarding the time allowed
for the unloading of cars of grain.
1t was represented that in compari-
son with the reg Ilations in Chicago,
the Milwaukee regulations are unusu.
ally severe, allowing only about one
fourth as much time for unloading
grain as is allowed in Chicago. The
railroads disputed some of the state
ments of the Milwaukee people and
there was evident misunderstanding
and lack of agreement as to just
what the Milwaukee regulations are.
The railroads maintained that th eS
were far more convenient and reas on
able than the Milwaukee represe alta
tives asserted. The matter was not
decided and it is probable that more
information will be secured by the
commission as to just what the regu-
lation and customs are in Milwaukee
and other large grain centers before
a final determination of the contro-
versy is reached.

Trehension of the modern dangers,
seemed to spread among the wolves.
They learned how to detect and defy
the traps and poison, and in some
way the knowledge was passed from
one to another, till ali wolves were
fully possessed of the information.
How this is done Is not easy to say.
1t is easier to prove that this is done.
Few wolves ever get into trap,
fewer still get into a trap and out
again, and thus they learn that 81
steel trap is thing to be feared.
Ano yet all wolves have the kncwl-
edge, as every trapper knows, and
since they could not get it at first
hand, they must have got it second
hand-that is, the information was
communicated to them by others of
their kind.
at is well known among hunters
that piece of iron is enough to pro-
tect any carcass from the wolves. If
deer OF antelope has been shot and
is to be left out over night, all that
is needed for its protection is an old
horseshoe, a spur, or even any part
of the hunters dress. No wolf will
go near such suspicious-looking or
human-tainted things. They will
starve rather than approach carcass
so guarded
with poison similar change has
come about. Strychnine was consid-
cred Invaluable when it was first in
troduced. 1t did vast destruction for
time; then the wolves seemed to
discover the danger of that particular
smell and would no longer take the
poisoned bait, as I know from num-
berless experiences.
1T is thoroughly well known
among the cattle men now that the
only chance of poisoning wolves is in
the late summer and, early autumn,
when the young are beginning to run
with the mother. She cannot watch
over all of them the whole time, and
there is a chance of some of them
finding the bait and taking 1t before
they have been taught to let that sort
of smell-thing alone.
"The result Is that wolves are on
the increase. They have been, indeed
since the late eighties. They have
returned to many Of their old hunt
ing grounds in the cattle countries
and each year they seem to be more
numerous and more widely spread
thanks to their mastery of the new
problems forced upon them by civil
ization."
