Before that they had a big share in the
civil war.
The mule is not dashing charger,
but it brings up the ammunition and
the food, and an army travels on its
stomach. The mule in Morocco is rap
id transit, street car. railroad, wagon,
stage coach and utomobile--there is
no road. 1t can carry light artillery
over mountain passes where cavalry
cannot maneuver. The mule eXcels in
rough mountain climbing not because
it is wiser than a horse but because
it has no nerves. 1t loves dizzy path.
1t is nearly possible to predict what a
mule will do in given circumstances.
1t is a live machine with something Of
a machines toughness. 1t looks bad
for the Morocco rebels when the mules
begin to saunter their way.

| Topeka, kas. 1t is a history of the
First Iowa regiment of infantry Of
which the author was member in
"E" company. A graphic picture Of the
ante-war period in Iowa is afforded
in the first chapters and the book Is
written in conversational narrative
style that renders it extremely read

memories it will awaken and the
young for glimpse into the daily life
of period and people that have for

Rock Rapids boasts the smallest debt
of any Iowa county seat. The debt is
less than $4,000. 1t has an electric
lighting plant to it's credit. But Grundy
Center calls attention to conditions
there. showing that debt is often off,
set by real property. Grundy owes &c.
900, has $5,165 in the treasury, lighting
plant, WaterWorks, etc. A debt and
something to show for it have their adj
vantages.
The Crystal Lake Reflector has sus-
pended publication. 1t is a hard prop
osition to run a good paper in small
town and a hard proposition for the
small town to support good paper.
Consolidation of the dozen newspapers
commonly published in every county
into less than half dozen would be a
good thing all around. Some excellent
weeklies come from the small towns
as the result of exceptional talent,
hard work and conditions.
The attention of county supervisors
should be called to the wife desertion
law now in the statutes. Every lazy
degenerate who refuses to work for his
family should get a taste of it.

HARD WORK COUNTS.
Champion Chronicle.)


The man who feels the off year, or
the poor year the worst, is the same
one who last year felt the good year
the least. Farmers and all other peo-
pie have within their ranks certain
class who never lay away dollar for
the poor year This fall the man who
has been living up his entire crop each
year finds that he has but little on
hand to carry him over the winter,
While his neighbor perhaps has last
years oats. corn and hay in his barn
and granaries to feed and sell If neces-
sary. With one mans story comes a
tale of poor crops, bad season and hard
luck, while his neighbor across the
road is hauling corn to town and get
ting good price for it. The man with
the poor crop is the one who attended
all the sales last winter. He never
misses a Saturday afternoon in town
and every excursion sees him among
the passengers. The one with the
money in the bank this fall is one that
could not afford all the incidentals as
they came along and who did not have
time to attend the sales. He was too
busy working to even attend the coun-
ty fair this fall. But somehow his
crops look pretty good and he has de-
cided to buy another eighty joining
him this fall.
Sooner or later the man on the farm
will find out that the competition is
keen and the contest is greulling, that
he cannot make money and be on the
road all the time He will discover as
every man in every line OF business,
who succeeds, finally discovers, that it
takes hard work and close application
TO business every day to bring the
best results. The man who stays at
his work and gets his enjoyment out OF
II is the one who has the most enjoy
ment in the long run.

Actresses as Wives.
tNew York Times

There is no reason why the actress
should not make as good a wife for a
husband off the stage as she generally
does for the actor when she marries
and remains on the stage. But the
trouble is that so many young men
fall in live, not with the actress. but
with the heroine of the play. whom
they confound with her. while their
judgment is blinded by the glamour of
the stage. If few actresses are play
heroines, in real life, however. SO are
few other women.

During his stay in New Salem he
