Let the Children Help.

Don't keep the children out of the
kitchen" is the advice of a woman
addressing a meeting of mothers. 1t
is advice that may not be needed in
many homes and its value may be
doubted or denied in others. 1t ap'
plies, of course, mainly to those per-
sons of moderate means who do all of
the baking and cooking and other
kitchen duties themselves, with, per-
haps the assistance of one servant. 1t
is one of the misfortuneS of the chill
dren of wealthy parents that little or
no opportunity is given them for early
acquiring an interest in the most i'm
portant of household occupations.
Many adults of today cherish pleas
ant memories of baking days and pre-
serving times, and can trace back to
those days the implanting in their
youthful minds of valuable bits of in
formation. The little ones will in
deed, learn more in the kitchen than
many mothers have any idea of. Their
eyes and ears are open to all that is
going on, and though they may at
times be bothersome with questions,
or in the way in their desire to help
mother" they are getting training
the effects of which will remain with
them through life. Happy and FORUM
ate are those children whose mothers
are patient and good natured enough
to put up with little inconvenience
and delays to teach them unconscious
ly the art of good housekeeping.
Show Interest in Your Teacher.
When our little children first timidly
knock at the door of knowledge 1T
makes great deal of difference what
sort of a teacher opens it unto them.
Often the little one is accompanied
by father or mother, or an older sister.
The way is made easier, the teacher
takes especial interest in the begin
ner, and life starts out with smile.
But how often the little one is sent to
the school without big warm hand
holding his or hers With shrinking
fear. embarrassment, and big lump
in the throat the little tot trudges
along the strange way to meet strange
faces and experiences.
What kind of a teacher is at the
head of the school? Is she we'll fitted
for her task of leading the little unde-
veloped minds into the great fields OF
knowledge that are already ripe unto
the harvest? Is she teaching because
she loves the work or because she Is
willing away the years until some one
will marry her, or because she needs
the money?
AS a rule, we believe the teachers
are capable, self-sacrifcing, hard
working. We know they do not get the
pay that they might from other labor
receiving the same amount OF energy
and application We know that as
class the teachers are a moral lot.
Their example in school and out is
commendable.
What is your attitude towards the
teacher and the school? Do not think

followed by an attendant with a cot
and other surgical appliances, sudden
ly appeared and walked down the
length Of the train toward the bag
gage car at the front end.
Keeping in mind the scenes of joy
n The waiting room, gaze for a minute
into the interior of the baggage car
entered by the physicians.
4 crowd of men stood in the front
end of the dingy car gazing on three
forms lying on the dirty floor in the
ron end. Cries and groans of pain
issued from the three forms, and a
closer inspection showed them to be
human forms, three Cinnamon, covered
with dirt and blood, and the red fluid
of life ran out over the floor in sever.
al places.
A man evidently Of the medical pro
fession was watching the pat ents and
one of the entering physicians address
ed him as follows: GLOW do you do.
Doctor, what is it?' GA shattered
limb, a broken shoulder and a fractrr
ed skullf' was the reply. "Have
you given tHtm any mOTpuid +!
"What's the uses' The physician
gazed at the gaant features of the in
jured men and saw the answer in their
spium-seared countenances. A short
consultation was held and it was dee d
ed to amputate the limb of one man
and perform such other operat on "a
was required on the remaining two. 1t
was also decided to continue with the
patients to a station west. TIE tra
whistled and the tragic scene Of hui
man blood and the cries of agony
were gone. A few minutes later the
east bound train pulled in and a light
hearted and laughing crowd boarded
and moved in the other direction.
A cloud of sorrow, and a s%prinkling
of joy had approached each other,
met and passed in the night. Such cir
cumstances as theses Shake
speare saw and understood and weav-
ed into his great works which, Will
mortals breathe, will endure.

The ability of William Shakespeare
to represent the life we actually I'VE
and to be true to nature has beeh the
snbiect of comment by many writers
who have succeeded him. They attrip-
ute the great success of the Shake-
spearean plays and the fact that they
are the greatest of all great literary
productions, because of this circum-
stance as much as because OF their
beauty from a purely literary tand-
noint. A theme favorIte with many
writers on this subject is the close as
sociation of comedy and tragedy. OF
;oy and sorrow, and love and hate IN
the works of the great author. Side
nv side in humorous passages VIII ap-
pear the tragic.
Snch as in act 4 in Hamlet, where
the body Of Ophelia, the heroine VINO
in the del'r;um of her insanity browns
herself has just been recovered and
clowns with pickaxes and spades are
digging her grave in the church yard.
They sing doggerel verse and engage
in puns on the death of Ophelia. The
comedy of the scene is interrupted by
the arrival of the funeral procession.
Tn all Of Shakespeare's tragedies
the same circumstances occur and
comedy is injected into deepest trag-
edy.
Comedy and tragedy, and joys and
sorrows 90 side by side in the life We
live. An exemplifcation of this to
one who cared to behold it was appar-
ent at the railroad depot in Winnemue-
ca last evening. There was the trag-
edy and comedy.
A iollv crowd Of young people were
waiting to take a train to Golconda to
attend the dance given there last even
ing They were in an exceedingly jol-
r. frame of mind, as is characteristic
of those starting out on a pleasure ex-
cursion. The world IN general had a
pleasant aspect to these light-heartod
people. They laughed and passed puns
on ne another as they waited for their
train.
A train whistled and all rushed out
&C the wa ng rnOm 70 get aboard. Bn
IL was a west bound train and so they
all went back and continued the
rounds Of humor that had been inter
rupted. The train pulled up to the
depot. Two phys, clans with their
medicine and instrument cases in hand,

A PANAcEA FOR THE PANIC
Plan of the Secretary of the Treas.
ury to Bring Money Out Is
Endorsed by President.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 1S.-secre.
tary Cortelyou last night made the
important announcement that as a
means of affording relief to the
financial situation the treasury would
issue $50,000,000 of Panama bonds and
$100,000,00O certificates of indebted.
ness, or so much thereof as may be
necessary. The certificates will run
for one year and will bear 8 per cent
interest, and the bonds 2 per cent.
The secretarys action in coming to
the relief of the financ;.; situation
meets with President Roosevelt's
hearty approval, and the plan is the
outcome of the several White house
conferences which have bten held
within the past few days when the
financial situation was under con.
sideration.
Secretary Cortelyou adds that these
Panama bonds will afford most sub
stantial relief, as the law provides
that they may be used as a basis fol
additional national bank circulation
He also states that the proceeds from
the sale of certificates can be made
directly available at points where the
need is most urgent, and especially
for the movement of crops, which he
says, IF properly accelerated will give
the greatest relief and result in the
most immediate financial returns"

STOCKS RUIN BANKER.
Charlton People Tell of crocker's
Heavy Plunginq.

Des es.-Information comes
from Charlton that Frank R. Croker
who committed suicide the night be,
fore the government took charge, of
his First National bank of that city,
sunk between s1,0oO,OOO and $780,.
900 in trying to bolster copper and
Reading railroad stocks in which he
had invested heavily.
1t is said in Charlton that all of
the Modern Woodman funds, amount
ing to 100000; his own estate
amounting to 100000; all of the cash
in the bank on hand and in other
banks, which amounted to perhaps
100000, and considerable more went
into the maelstrom of speculation.
1t is estimated that the creditors of
the Charlton bank will get between 40
and 60 per cent of their claims. A
receiver will be named for the insti.
tuition within short time. H. D.
Copeland of Charlton probably will
be appointed.

KILLED BY FALL FROM TRAIN.
Missouri Valley Young Man Meets
UntmeIy End

Council Bluffs.-John Wilkinson,
Jr., son of John Wilkinson, foreman
of the Northwestern machine shops
at Missouri Valley, died from injuries
sustained by falling from a fast train.
Young Wilkinson and three young
friends had been to Denison. They
boarded the train in the return trip
hurriedly and rode standing in the
vestibule. AS the train neared Mis-
souri, Valley, Wilkinson opened the
door and leaned out, evidently to see
how near they were to the depot,
when he lost his balance and fell.
The train was running at least fifty
miles an hour at the time.
When the train reached the depot,
Wilkinson's companions ran back to
where Wilkinson had fallen, barely
reaching him in time to save him from
mutilation from another train, grasp
ing the body and pulling it from the
track as fast freight brushed by
them.
Wilkinson was terribly injured. He
hit some obstruction which tore a
great hole in his head and side. While
one of the boys remained with Will
kinson the others gave the alarm,
when an engine and coach were sent
up the track and Wilkinson hurried
to the hospital He never regained
consciousness. He was a popular
young man and was employed with
his father.
