BoraIum's Group of North America.

ooT9Sum oTooP OF NoTtn America.
Gutzon Borglum's group of North
America, for the bureau of the Ameri-
can republics at Washington, has been
cast in plaster, and promises to be
grand artistic monument. The figure
of the youth representing Progress"
is particularly strong, and We imagine
there is a certain hidden meaning in
the expression of the nervous figure
that will give rise to some discussion
when the group is placed. Mr. Borg
lum, who started for vacation in the
Gunnison country of Colorado, will re-
turn in August and the marble group
will be cut in the rough at Washing
ton. Then it will be placed in position
at the building of the American repub-
lies, and the sculptor will finish it in
stu. There will be no leaving of work
to mechanics. The group will repre-
sent the full expression of a man full
of original ideas. who takes his art in
tensely seriously.

RADICAL AND EFFECTIVE CURE
Insurance Man Firmly Convinced One
Practical Joker Has Seen the
Error Of His Ways.

"Oh, yes. I had a good time camp.
ing out this SUMNER" said the insur-
ance man, land just before coming
home l found a hero. There were q
hundred campers of us where l went,
and among them were several love-
sick young men. 1t got to be a fad
for one of them to take q canoe and
paddle away and upset 1t and play
that he was drowned. Then the rest
of US had to turn out and hunt for
him. After this game had been played
three or four times l got tired of 1t.
was routed out one morning at
daylight to help search for a dude,
who wanted to perish for the love Of
a red-haired girl in camp. His canoe
had drifted ashore bottom up. While
some went to dragging the lake. I
took walk in the woods along the
shore, and in the course of half an
hour | found my man. He wasn't
drowned. He wasn't even wet. He
was smoking a cigarette and feeling
q hero"
And what happened" was asked
as the narrator paused.
Il effected a cure. 1t will be years
and years before that young man
plays the hero again. 1t may, in fact,
be never more. l took him by the
collar and jerked him to his feet and
rammed the cigarette down his throat,
and then l cracked his heels In the
air and toyed with him. When tired
of this got down and drew him over
my knee and spanked him 20 min.
utes straight. He struggled and
yelled, of course, but it was no use.
When l had finished him he sneaked
up to camp and packed up and disap-
peared. From thence until left
canoes kept right side up, and not q
young man was missing on the lake
or a young woman lost in the woods
to cause the rest of us to miss our
regular meals"

The Winnebago and His Beans.

Inc "ihne0a9o ano Ills scans.
Congressman j. p. Latta of Nebraska
demands that the Winnebago Indians
of his state be given back the privi-
lege of chewing mescal beans which
the government ruthlessly deprived
them of some years ago.
The mescal bean grows down on the
Mexican border, and the Indian ex-
perts say that its narcotic quality
makes it as dangerous to the noble
red men as whisky, choral, morphine
or any other drug.
The noble red men, however, indig-
nantly deny the allegation, and declare
that it is part of the Winnebago re-
ligion to chew those beans and thus
hold direct communication with the
Great Spirit.
Congressman Latta, occupying mid
die ground upon the question, argues
that they are not so bad, and that the
Winnebago Indians were just as well
behaved when they had the habit as
they are now, when paternal govern
ment forbids it.

FaVons fads In Sehool.

A woman teacher says that there is
more time for the so-called "fads'' in
the schools than there used to be. and
they make for culture and higher
ideals in the education of the child.

used to be necessary to make boys
good accountants is no longer re-

time for drilling is now given over to

Try the Hunger Cure.

STRUCK HIS FINAL BALANCE
In Company with the Beloved
ledqers.

In silence he walked up and down
the main Office where the click, click
of the typewriters almost made him
dizzy; but every head bobbed up from
its work as he passed with a pleasant
smile or friendly nod.
He must now take leave of the be-
loved volumes over which he had
pored days. months, years-yea. more
than the quarter of a century: they
were his comrades. his inspiration.
his soul. Inanimate things occasion
ally become a sort of major part of
a human being until it seems almost
brutal to eliminate one from the 9TH
er. He was of the past, but the vol
umes must be handed down to the
present-the future. Silently he ca
ressed the huge worn covers; with
unshed tears, he pored over the flg-
ures as If they were human and knew
of his grief. He leaned forward and
laid his tired head, with its thin gray
locks, on one of the open books and.
with one emaciated. bloodless hand
clasped the cover of another. He
closed his eyes YEARLY and heaved q
sigh like the soft sough of the wind
through some deserted garden.
The noise in the main Office had
ceased: the typewriter girls had
gone one by one: the men had taken
their departure. The man who swept
and busted and saw to turning out
the lights was making a hasty tour
of the different offices and opened sne
door of the aged accountants room.
It was nothing unusual to see him
at his desk at this late hour.
Hello there, Uncle! Sun at
work."
The white head never moved from
the table. There was an ominous ST.
lence. Awe-struck. the attendant
moved closer to the desk and gently
shook his shoulder. The old man was
cold and rigid. He had balanced all
earthly accounts.-The Bookkeeper.

Well-Pressed Cat.

A chair had been placed by the
counter In the drug store where the
stamps were sold. 1t seemed very
convenient The woman sat down
She got up as quickly and gave vent
to, q little scream. for the cushion o.
dark brown had squirmed.
Its q cat!" she cried. for after the
momentary squirming the cushion had
curled itself up again and gone back
to sleep.
"Yes," said the boy, quietly. but II
doesn't matter. She's used to It
Everybody that comes in to buy a
stamp sits down on her."
