on practically the same basis as have
ruled In the United States In recent
years. Clothing and shoes cost slight

cost as much In England as in the
United States. As rule the com
mon laborer pays out nearly half hi
wages In rent, None of them own
homes, though in small towns th.
laborers houses may be part of the

rent Is nominal. $40 to $50 per year
and the condition is further relieved
by the use of small garden patches
which, however, with the tavoring
climate, are far more productive
than In America. The disposition Is
toward thrift and close money econ

because OF any possibility of saving.

that our lands have deteriorated so
that farmers are unable to make their
living. Part of this is due to strip
ping the forests from the htllsides,

more of Il Is due to the failure to
feed out on the farm as much OF the

AS the result of Dr. Wiley's expert

'armers will have TO invest their
profits from the stills In commercial

the lower grades of building lumber, the kind that enters chiefly into the construction of the majority or houses.
 This fact is an ample reason for the Build Now" campaign that IS being condu,ted by the American Lumberman of Chicago, which has been bearing fruit in renewed build ing activity in many places.
 Undoubtedly there is no more favorable time for building than right now, for it is certainty that lumber will never be any cheaper.
 It has reached rock bottom and IS already beginning an appreclable upturn in prices.
 The higher grades have decreased during the year from $3 to $5 per thousand, while some of the cheaper grades have declined s to $8 per thousand, and some even 50 per cent.
 No. 2 pine, for instance, that last year sold at $10 to SIP, is selling now at $5 to $6.
 Mill men declare that this is ac- tually below the cost of production for the lower grades, and that it cannot go any ower.-Arkansas Democrat.

The Convenient Conventional.

When 1 was very young girl, and inclined, like most young people, to despise the beautiful commonplace things of daily life, and to find the path of the usual a dull place for my walks abroad, an old lady sad to me:
 My dear, do not underrate the value of the usual; it's highway is a convenient road which leads one to a freedom of spirit; for blazing one's own path through life is wasting ones time on hard work when we might better have made use of the labor of others"
 And, indeed, have found the path of the usual like a welltrodden road, perhaps not as interesting as crosscountry travelling, but still a saver of time and trouble, and if on it's even surface one has not so much joy of adventure, neither does one bark ones shins or tear ones clothes in scrambling over fences. Mary Heaton Worse.

menace of the dog, particularly in large cities. He says that since the first of the year forty-three persons and twenty-five animals have been bitten by rabid dogs in the District of Columbia, and that of sixty-three dogs examined forty-seven showed positive rabies.
 In Pittsburg the Magee Pathologi- cal institute is rarely without a patient under treatment on account of a bite by rabid dog. The same is probably.true of other cities where institutes of this kind exist. Deaths from hydrophobia are not infrequent.
 This toll of human life is taken, and the expense to the individual and to the public incurred simply because dogs may be kept as no other animal, except the cat, may be. That is to say they are allowed to run at large without incurring liability on the part of their owners for the injury they do to persons or property. The cat stays at home, except for occasional night galli- wanting, and for that reason is hard ly in class with the dog.
 If man should prefer chickens to dogs, he must keep them on his own property. Yet the chicken is not only useful animal, but a harmless one, barring the damage 1t does in the gardens of the neigh bors. A man may have protection for his flower beds or vegetable patches from his neighbours chick ems, but he has none for himself or children from his neighbours dog.
 The truth is that false sentiment for mans best friend" stands in the way of protection of life from the danger of the dog. In 99 cases out of 100 this best friend" of man is really worthless cur. But at that the man who wants to have an animal of this kind should be allowed to have it. But he should be required to see that it neither menaces his neighbours life nor trespasses upon his property, just as he must do if he keeps hen, a horse or a cow.--- News-Record

NO LAW, BUT

No law prescribes the social asso- citation of a judge. but ordinary good taste ought to have been sufficient to have prevented Judge Grosscup's becoming the guest of chum and business associate of John D. Rocke- feller so soon after that Standard Oil decision. Southwest American.
 Nor is there any law prescribing that a judge should not resign his position to practice corporation law on the grounds that it pays better, but nevertheless it would have looked better had Judge Grosscup taken the proposed step before he made a decision so tremendously in favor of one the greatest corporations in the world.
 No, there's no law governing such cases, but the time may come when publicity and public opinion will be of such force as to be a law-making force

George w. Donaghey, witL nc pretense as smart politician, cer- tainly has way of hitting the nail on the head when it comes to hard sense. Here is what he recently had to say in St. Louis:
 ''There will be a cessation of dema- gogery and gold-headed cane combats with politicians; less appeal to the passions and prejudice of the people with eyes blind to commercial pros perity, and more conscientious and conservative attention given to methods for the advancement of Ark ansas. Arkansas has too long suffer- ed under the yoke of political sensa- tionalism, big towery oratory and misrepresentation of public affairs The time has come when these things should be changed and by business administration .of affairs the state can be brought into it's right and prop CT place among the finest common wealths in all the land r

An Earnest Purpose Finds Time.

Is it asked, how can the laboring man find time for self-culture I answer, that an earnest purpose finds time, or makes it. It seizes on spare moments, and turns fragments to golden account. A man who fol- lows his ealing with industry and spirit and uses his earnings economi- cally will always find some portion of the day at command. And it is astonishing how fruitful of improve ment short season becomes, when eagerly seized and faithfully used. A single hour in the day, steadily given to the study of some interest ing subject, brings unexpected ac- cumulations of knowledge. William Ellery Charming.
