sweet Beautiful Flowers. /"

A day or two since a kind,
thoughtful lady sent the writer a
bouquet of choice flowers, gather
ed in her attractive garden, as an
expression of appreciation for
some article printed. And we
thought how much happier we all
would were we to consider those
about us and endeavor to cheer
the lonely way of some despond-
ent brother. Too often we wait
until those we love and admire
are in their coffins before we place
in their hands the "sweet, beau
tiful flowers" which would have
meant so much to them while
passing along life's highway.
Flowers have about them a sweet
ness and fragrance suggestive of
sentiment which rises above the
CLEAN and glitter of gold and the
grasping sordiness of present day
commereialism. They carry sun
shine and gladness into many
dark places. Instinctively we
feel. as we catch the odor of the
rose and huneysuckle, the violet
and pansy, that life Is not all
darkness and struggles, and that
we could do our fellows no greater
service than to place "fowers"
in their hands while there is time
for appreciation, not waiting
until they are cold in DEATH

Need Not Worry.

Uncle Sam need have no worry
about engaging in war with Japan
on the score of lack of prepara-
tions. The promise that there
will be troops, generals and
heroes in plenty fills the bill
nowadays. Promises 60 further
than performance. They can be
stretched to any length aud
performances cannot. That IS, if
battles, like the political cam
paigns in Louisiana, can be
fought with wind.-The People.
Some Don'ts.
Don't keep milk, butter or
buttermllk standing in your
churn.
Don't keep butter standing
around in your butter bowl.
Don't half wash and scald the
milk utensils and promise to do
it better tomorrow.
Don't pour hot water in your
cream to warm it and then when
you have 1T melted pour cold
water in to cool it. Get a dairy
for a few cents. If
cream IS too cold put into some
vessel and put warm water around
it, stirring frequently.

kenresentatis~- --..-aeit OF
Wyoming has "gotten his'' in the
shape of call from the Interior
Department for the return of 160
acres of government landto which
he is not entitled. La the general
shake up and strengthening out of
the Land Office records, it was
found that Representative Mon
dell had filed on 160 acres of
government land, filed on it as
agricultural land when in reality
it had a vein of coal on it. Fur
ther he had never lived on the
land to perfect his entry as is
required by law, but had simply
had Ut handed to him by the Land
Office probably more because he
was congressman than for any
other reason. Mr.. Mondell has
been very active in western land
legislation and has been q strong
opponent of the President in
number of his western land pro-
grams. Possibly this pernicuous
activity had something to DO with
his being singled out by the
Department to be made an exam
pie of. Anyhow he returned the
land and no questions were asked.
1t is a wholesome example, but
what the country needs is more
than an example. Of course it
was wrong fora Congressman or
anyone else to misappropriate
land, but there are.
hundi eds of thousands of acres
of valuable mineral and timber
land that have been stolen by the
thousand acres under the lax
administration of the Land Office,
and it will be a cheering thing
when the public gets examples"
of more than 160 acre cases.

John ID. Rockefelier's auto
mobile, in which Mr.. Rockefeller
was beng rather hurriedly driven
to his country home recently, was
stopped by constable at EIms-
ford, near New York City, and
the chauffeur was subsequently
fined $25 for exceeding the speed
limit. Mr.. Rockefeller paid the
fine. According to the constable
the machine was making thirty
miles an hour when he caught its
speed over q measured course.
Mr.. Rockefeller explained that
he was in hurry to get home,
and the officer consented to ac-
company him to his home. There
Mr.. Rockefeller communicated
by telephone with Justice Bird at
Tarrytown, admitted that the
constable was probably right and
arranged to pay the fine.
