1--WE Need the Money"

I'VE need the money, but so far as
am concerned, we don't need it bad
enough to hold up that poor fellow and
say he shall furnish it. We need the
money, but We don't need it bad
enough to snatch the bread from the
women and children of the poor fellow
who is so unfortunate as to have the
drink habit. We need the money, but
we don't need it bad enough to send
the poor woman over the steaming
Washtub, to wash dirty clothes to buy
food for her children. We need the
money, but we don't need it bad
enough to take the shoes off the feet
of children born in drunkards' homes.

WHEN MILEsToNEs CHEER.
They Always GLADDEN. the Heart of
the Pedestrian.

In a walking trip milestone along
the way is the most companionable
fellow in the world; your spirits rise
as you near him as though you were
about to greet human friend, and
they keep almost consistently on his
high level till his brother a mile dis
tant advances to meet you.
And when you overlook one of this
friendly company because of an en-
croaching bank or screening boughs,
says the Travel Magazine, his neigh
Dor further on comes to you doubly
welcome. At the latter end of this
passage in the journey your spirits
flag trifle as though oppressed by
sense Of desertion. You may even
scowl at the overhanging bank which
is more than a party to this conceal
ment.
Those worthy persons who attend to
milestone within their province stands
out frankly from it's leafy background.
Observance of this, however, would
rob the wayfarer of that leap of the
heart which is his when the stone
tells the story of two miles done rather
than one. For however much the land
scape and the minute world at his feet
may claim the footfarer's admiration
he is still keenly alive to the virtue
of decent distances covered in his
DAYS Journey.

NO STAIN ON HIS RECORD.
That's Where the Driver Had the Best
of the Preacher.

A New York clergyman, who often
spends his vacation in fishing the
streams of the Adirondacks, was on
one trip adopted by a handsome set
ter dog, which insisted on following
him from camp to camp, as he moved
along the stream.
One day he met a party of men
working upstream with native guide.
The guide Immediately recognized the
dog as his own property.
Trying to steal my setter, are
you?" he shouted at the clergyman.
"Tll have you to Jail for this! There's
a law in the woods just as big as you
have in the city"
The clergyman endeavored to eX-
plain that he was an unwilling COM
panion of the dog, which had refused
to be driven away, but to little effect
until he added a two-dollar bill to his
arguments.
ITS queer what strange things hap
pen to a man up here" he said to the
stage-driver who later carried him
away from the woods. THAT is the
first time was ever accused of steal
ing a dog"
"Yes, sir" replied the driver, SYM
pathetically, and added, after a mo-
ments pause, For myself, sir, have
never been accused of stealing any
thing. Companion.

ABSTINENCE IN ANTARCTIC.
Alcohol Left Out Of Supplies for Ex-
ploring Expedition,

In a detailed account Of an inspec-
hon of the outfit of the British Antarc-
tic expedition made in London, in COM
pany with Lieut.. Shackleton, the lead
er OF the enterprise, writer in the
London Temperance Chronicle states
that among the provisions to be car
ried by the expedition alcohol is con-
spicuously absent. After explaining the
hne equipment of the Nimrod, the YES
sci which will carry the expedition
and noting the scientific selection of
provisions on her store list, the writer
states But to us the most interesting
point about the whole expedition is
Lieut.. Shackleton's firm determination
to carry no alcohol, save a very little
quantity indeed for strictly medical
purposes, and to be administered by
the medical officer alone, and that un-
der the most exceptional circum-
stances only. Lieut.. Shackleton knows
well the danger resulting from the use
OF alcohol where the temperature drops
from 60 to 20 degrees below zero, and

great predecessor, Sir John Ross, who,
In addition to his northern polar voy-
ages, IS years ago, sailed the same
seas on the same quest as that of the
Nimrod, and whose emphatic utter
ance after his memorable Arctic voy-
age of earlier days, was couched in
the following terms: THE most ire
slstible proof of the value of absti-
nence was when we abandoned our ship
and were obliged to leave behind us
all our wine and spirits. 1t was re-
markable to observe how much strong
er and more able the men were to do
their work when they had nothing but
water to drink" In ihsuring the prac-
tice OF strict abstinence among his
men Lieut.. Shackleton is but follow
ing the principle demonstrated by all
previous experience in such expedi-
tions that indulgence in alcohol is de-
rogatory to the highest physical eff
cheney of the men engaged, and
menace to the best interests of the en-
tire undertaking."

A Whistler Criticism.

The late James Mcneil Whistler
was standing bareheaded in a hat
shop, the clerk having taken his hat
to another part of the shop for COM
parison. A man rushed in with his
hat in his hand and supposing Whist
Ter to be a clerk angrily confronted
him.
"See here" he said, "This hat
doesn't fit"
Whistler eyed the stranger from
head to foot and then drawled out:
well, neither does your coat.
What's more, if you'll pardon my say
ing so, I'll be hanged if I care much
for the color of your trousers. ."-"Un-

Drink Bill of Country.

The New York Tribune, one of t.
most conservative and reliable news
papers in the United States. says:
THE drink bill of the United States is
$1,41O, O,236,702. All the corn, wheat,
rye, oats, barley, buckwheat and po-
taotoes put together will not pay for
it. The liquor traffic costs more each
year than our whole civil service, our
army, navy and congress, the river,
harbor and pension bills; all we pay
for local government; all national,
state and county debts; and all the
schools in the country. In fact, this
government pays more for liquors
than for every function of every kind

| And last comes julius Hoffman,
married, formerly lieutenant in the
Austrian army, who for love and
jealousy killed Draga Siegel. For he
had given up wife, children and
friends. Hoffman and his wife had
come from Australia, bringing with
them Draga, who had been an appren-
tice in Mrs. Hoffman's dressmaking
establishment.
In New York they all prospered I'M
til love, blind, irresponsible, unreason-
ing love, took a hand in the game.
Mrs. Hoffman left her husband and
Draga went to live with a family
by the name of Lucas. Hoffman
lived alone. Mrs. Hoffman brought
suit against Draga Siegel, who in an
other year would come into an inher-
itance of 100000, for alternating her
husbands affections; and Draga in
turn brought suit. for defamation of
character. In the midst of this con-
fusion jealousy and death appeared
hand in hand. From Australia came
some childhood friends of the pretty

IN LIFE's BRIEF SPAN.
Experiences, Joys and Sorrows Of the
Human Existence.

The loves and friendships of indi-
viduala partake of the frail character
of human life, and are brief and I'M
certain. The experience of human
life may be shortly summed up: A
little loving and good deal OF sor-
rowing; some bright hopes and many
bitter appointments; some gor-
geous Thursdays when the skies are
bright and the heavens blue, when
Providence, bending over us in bles7-
ings, glads the heart almost to mad
ness; many dismal Fridays, when the
smoke of torment beclouds the mind
and undying sorrows gnaw upon the
heart; some high ambitions and many
Waterloo defeats, until the heart be-
comes like a charnel house filled with
dead affections, embalmed in holy
but sorrowful memories; and thea
the chord is loosed, the golden bowl
is broken, the individual life-a cloud,
vapor, passes away.-Matthew Hale
Carpenter.

KANSAS LEADS IN ALFALFA.
Western State Grows 10000 Acres Of
Live Stock Rations.

Kansas is unique in many things,
but in none more than in the COM
manding position she occupies in re-
lation to alfalfa growing. Her devel-
opnient in this industry has been one
of the marvels of her prolific agricul-
ture, and with alfalfa, as with winter
wheat, no other state is her equal in
its area and production. The alfalfa
field of Kansas now approximates
nearly three-quarters of million
acres, and but three cultivated crops
exceed it in annual area, viz: wheat,
corn and oats. In combination with
these alfalfa furnishes Kansans in
abundance with perhaps the best and
cheapest rations anywhere available
for the maintenance of their live stock,
for the excellence of which they are
famed. Kansans were among the fore
most correctly to estimate its worth,
and it's widespread introduction in the
Sunflower state has been one of the
most important factors in increasing
bank deposits and the per capita
wealth.
