started to snore. For awhile the
nasal notes were soft and smooth and

Farming In Eoypt.

A sailor on board the Rhode Island
on the trip Of the battleship feet
around the world last year wrote
from Egypt describing graphically the
wonders Of the pyramids and other
interesting things in that country. or
the farming there he says:
From the statue of Rameses the
Great we went for long ride over
the splendidly irrigated land to the
tombs. The farming land was quite
q sight.
They have brought corn from the
United States and raise 1t here In
great quantities. They also raise fine
wheat, clover, cabbages, lettuce and
nearly all vegetables.

ORGANIZATION IS THE RAGE
unorsanlzed Farmer Must Battle
Alone Against Body Of lndl.
VIduals Strongly Aligned.

This is an age of organization, and
farmers fully appreciate the truth of
this oft-repeated statement every time
an effort is made to have their infu-
ence felt in any direction. Let the
farmer attempt to right any wrong
arising from the lack of legislation or
through the operation Of unjust laws
and he Immediately finds himself face
to face with an organized force. He
must battle, single handed, with a
body Of individuals thoroughly organ
lied, says Michigan Farmer. The
result, disastrous as 1t is to the farm.
er, Is only what might reasonably be
expected under the circumstances, and
the outcome is much the same where
a weak organization meets a stronger.
Can more potent argument for a
strong farmers organization be ad.
Vanced than that contained in the
above facts? And, granting that
there is general agreement as to the
need Of organization, where is there
an organization built upon a more per-
manent, enduring basis, that has been
more thoroughly tried out, than the
Grange? It has become a lasting So
cial and educational force in every
progressive farm community which It
has entered. Its plan, that of having
an organization in township, county,
state and nation, makes possible its
reaching and helping the farmer in
every sphere, and anything short of
this would not make for a strong, in.
fiuential body.
Another point in favor of the Grange
is that 1t was the first organization
that gave to woman the same priv.
leges and rights as are enjoyed BY
man. In doing this 1t has net only
turned on the radiant light Of hope
for her, but it has strengthened the
union Of both, has created deeper love
for home, and given inspiration fol-
better thoughts, nobler deeds, and
higher aims for the future.
There is nothing equal to the
Grange in giving opportunity to the
boys and girls Of the farm. Here theil
latent ability is awakened and hope
engendered until We see them devel
oped into fuller and more complete
men and women. In so doing they
take greater pride in their work, more
interest in the farm and home, ant
their attachments for 1t are increased
many times.

When in doubt-don't.

When in doubt-don't.
What is dun" cannot be undone
until 1t is paid.
Even the horses are pleased with
the good roads.
Patches on breeches are better than

We cannot ever know everything
about farming. 1t is impossible.
The first essetial to successful

There is sunshine enough In the
world to warm everybody. Then why
be pessimistic?
You cannot carry the cup Of com
fort to another without being blessed
by its fragrance yourself.
Money is not the only reward that
farming gives. 1t provides opportunity
to develop both mind and body.
Simply to be just, considerable and
helpful is better than to master all the
metaphysics Of this and oil other
worlds.
The farming industry has proved
profitable in the past and will in the
future to those who are willing to
learn its lesson.
The grouchy neighbor is like
snarling dog. He only succeeds in
making himself unpopular without do
ing good to anybody.
Contrast your home surroundings
with that Of your town friends Of less
means. If the comparison is not IA
vorable to you you are at fault.

there.
Neither are the pictures of the

Nerve Timing.

A strange instance Of the care ana
minuteness with which the human
body is now studied, in the effort to
understand its powers and functions
better, is furnished by a paper read
recently at meeting Of the Royal So
ciety in London on the Rapidly OF
the Nervous Impulse in Tall and
Short Individuals" Even the differ
ence in time required for a nerve
telegram" to traverse the bodies OF
different persons is regarded as
matter Of scientific importance.
A series Of observations has shown
that the length Of the nerve does not
affect the velocity with which an i'm
pulse passes between the brain and
the extremities, and consequently that
more time is needed II the path is
long than II 1t is short. II follows
that a short man should feel a step
on his corns quicker than a tall man;
but the difference is 80 slight that the
offender has no better chance Of es-

COPPER COUNTRY DOKAYS
LAUNCH KORAYB TEMPLE
Big Ceremonial Session in Laur-
ium Proves Successful in
Every Way.
LARGE CHARTER MEMBERSHIP

Korayb Temple, Dramatic order
Knights of Khorassan, with headquar-
tcrs i'm L.aurium and jurisdiction over
the entire upper peninsula of Michl-
gan was successfully launched at the
ceremonial session held at the Laus-
mm town hall last evening. Notwith-
standing the fact that the severity of
the weather necessitated the cancel
ing OF the plans for a big street pa
rGde and demonstration, the much dis
cussed institution exceeded the fondest
expectations of all. Under the direc-
ton of Imperial Ikhr ]. A. Solomans
OF Grand Rapids, 10 tyros were guild
ed across the burning sands by the
brave votaries of Al Sirat Temple OF
Duluth. and fed TO the hungry tiger.
The manner in which the Laurium
degree team conducted the work was
said to havel been highly successful
and the evening will forever be
pleasant memory for those present.
No details which would add to the
complete effect was omitted.
At the conclusion of the institution,
the entire party repaired to the Laur-
ium bank hall where an enjoyable
banquet was served. A number of
short talks were given by those who
have been prominently identified with
the movement and by Mr. Solomans.
The new Laurlum temple starts aus
piciously with a charter membership
of about 40 and il is expected that
several large classes will be added in
the near future. As the purposes Of
the order are almost entirely social,
the members will probably meet at in
tervals of about one month. The next
ceremonial session will likely be held
in the spring.
]. A. Solomans of Grand Rapids, is
enthusiastic over the new temple or
ganized and this morning highly COM
pllmentcd the members of the team
upon the work of the evening.
Mr.. Solomans said, II believe right
now that Kerayb temple will become
the best in the state OF Michigan. /

good n degree team i'm as young

done last evening was better eXempli-
fed than il would have been by the
teams of many older temples. The
spirit which prevailed was the very
best and / think II will outstrip the
older temples in the state located at

LECTURE HERE ON PANAMA
CANAL BY MAN WHO KNOWS
Claude N. Bennett Will Talk Here
Dec. IA Under Auspices Of

INFORMED ON EVERY DETAIL

Claude n. Bennett, manager of the
Congressional Information bureau, will
be the next attraction OF the Y. M. c.

Tuesday evening of next week Dec. IA.
NJ. Bennett will lecture at the Calu-
met theater on the Panama canal
known as the eighth wonder OF the
world. AS manager of the Information
bureau, Mr.. Bennett knows accurately
in regard TO every detail, and on this
account his lecture should be a most
interesting one. His every utterance
is as reliable as if coming from the
president himself or from the engineers
in charge.
Mr. Bennett is said To have caught
the news feature of the whole canal
enterprise. and tells ii in straightfor-
ward, enthusiastic fashion which has
never failed TO grip the closest atten-
ton Of an audience.
The Panama canal is the greatest
engineering undertaking Of all time. II
is the supreme task begun under the

administration. Certainly no other
subject of this character possesses
such vital interest 70 the people OF this
country. IL is "a world enterprise,
closely concerning all maritime nations

cussion Involves history and gcogra-
ply, sanitation and engineering, and
therefore appeals particularly to the

subject before the public at the present

LAURIUM COUNCIL WILL
HOLD REGULAR MEETING

The regular monthly meeting Of the
this evening, and a number Of impor-
tant matters are likely to come up for
consideration. Prominent among these
are the licenses for liquor agencies, AS
provided by the Warner Champion act,
which went into effect on Sept 9 and
the question of additional lights for
some of the outlying sections Of the
town.
There arc two brewery agencies in
Laurium, representing the Park and
the Bosch companies. each of which
stores its product in warehouses. one
of the provisions of the Warner
Champion act authorizes q village or
town to collect "A $50 license per an
mum from such agencies. AS the law
did not go into effect until September,
however, the Laurium village is only
entitled to the license fec from that
month until May I at this time 1t is
expected that each company will pre-
sent bonds at the meeting this even
ing and that they will be approved.
At the last regular meeting the quos-
ton of addition street lights for some
of the sections of the town which
have been poorly lighted was taken
up and left in the hands of the street
committee which will make it's report
tonight,
In addition to these matters IL is ex-
pected that others will be taken up.
among which will probably he the con-
sideration Of the proper steps to bc
taken TO collect the outstanding spe-
oial assessment taxes Of the village.
