He is here because that bounding,
leaping catapult, known to moderate
motorists as an automobile, brought
him here. 1t might just as well have
taken him somewhere else. The
place is immaterial to him-just so he
got there" But if he is mild, meek
little gentleman with the pre-occupied
business air, he's out just for vaca-
ton and the whole family is along
and more than likely they're going to
the Dells for little outing. And they
really stop 10 eat and have time to
see the city, admiring the scenery and
even do not blaspheme the impossible
streets, but go on their way, glad
they're alive.
Not so the other type They are
in a stupendous hurry and all hands
drop everything and see that they are
not detained one instant. People
such as they are terror to hotel
management from proprietor to bell
boy. They want everything and they
want it quick. But ripple of content
succeeds the whirlpool of their pres
ence-when. they go.
Their destination?
Caprice guides the wheels. They
don't know where they're going but
they're on their way.

ago q good man laid down this rule,
which has been true from tho begin
ming and which will remain true to the
end: "The first quarrel that goes the
length of any harsh or contemptuous
language is an unfortunate epoch In
married life; for that the delicate re-
spectfulness being thus once broken
down, the same kind of language much
more easily comes afterward. There 10
feeling of having less to IoVe than be-
fore"
One of the finest couples know have
quick tempers. From the first they real
lied their weakness and saw the dan
ger. So they faced the problem candid
ly. Thus it happened that when one
grew angry the other remained silent
Once they grew angry at the same time
and their efforts to control themselves,
each for the sake of the other, were
so grotesque that they laughed-and
laughter is the best cure in the family
medicine chest
Frequently one Of the partners has
more temper than the other; acute diff
ferences follow, unless there is wise
management Of resources; and right
here is the opportunity to remember
that the highest exercise Of charity is
charity toward the uncharitable"
The 0ery biggest mistake that mar
r1ed persons make is to think that their
friends will help them in their>troubles
with each other. The man or woman
who goes away from home for sympa-
thy finds sorrow and brings back regret.

When he takes leave of lady after

in hotel corridors, when ladies are pres

mindedness, the death blow to friendship
With such one can be only lenient anc
charitable and slow to take offense, re-
membering that the acquaintance may
not be aware CT her conduct She NAV
be self-centered and selfish, but, if she
| is valued as friend, she may be asked
why her manner is so variable, and this
may bring her to a sense Of her peculi-
arities. But if she is not really friend,
it would be impossible to make any in
quiry about her manner
Bow But Once
When passing acquaintance several
times, it is only necessary to bow at the
first meeting, and it is not correct to
mention the name of the person to
whom one bows.
Respect for Age
A bow to an older or superior per-
son should be respectful If bowling to
persons one knows slightly, the bow is
slight; if bowling to those one knows
well, the bow is more cordial.
An important rule is that a man must
wait TO be recognized by lady before
he bows, but between friends the act
OF bowling is almost Simultaneous
In bowling a man lifts his hat and re-
places it quickly. He does not hold it

HUNTING FossILIzED GAME.
"Bad Lands" Yield Big Returns to
Scientists With Picks and Spades.

"Bad Lands" Yield Big Returns to
Scientists With Picks and Spades.
The biggest game that can now be
found on the earth is as nothing com
pared with the mammoth creatures be
longing to the prehistoric ages of the
worlds formation, and, strange to say,
these extinct monsters are still pur-
sued by the hunter Of today. In his
search for them he often endures as
many hardships and braves as many
dangers as the man who follows the
trail in the forest with rife in hand.
For this hunter of big game no
longer living is the fossil seeker, and
his work often leads him into regions
not only uninhabited by human be-
ings, but containing nothing in the
way Of food Or water to nourish him.
His greatest discoveries, indeed have
been made in places where the world
has literally been dead for countless
centuries.
And yet, strange to say, it. is in
America that the most valuable of
these fossil remains have been found.
Readers Of Owen Minister'S stories of
life in Wyoming of twenty or thirty
years ago know something of the gen
eral character of the Bad Lands of
the far west, and it is in this locality
which forms a vast graveyard for
these grotesque monsters of the prIm-
tive world. Here may be found the
bones of the gigantic lizards known as
dinosaurs, as well as those of huge
turtles and crOCOdiles older than any
that ever fOated in the Nile.
Men Of science throughout the world
now regard Bone Cabin Quarry, Wy
ground for these animals of the past
that have as yet been discovered. The
story of the hill and valley, as read by
the geOlOgist, shows that this was
once a fertile country, with it's trees,
bushes and grass nOurished by riv-
ers and lakes, so that it afforded abun-
dant food for the biggest living things
the world has ever known. In fact.
nearly all of the little valley lying
near the the Bow Head river in this
part of Wyoming is within the bound
aries of the graveyard, but biologists
say that it is nearly 300 feet deep, ana
as yet the fossil hunters have only
worked near the present surface of the
earth.
The hunter of prehistoric big game
must bring to his aid a knowledge of
geology and natural history. Their
weapons are chiefly the pick and
spade; but some of the places contain
ing the fossilized skeletons are so
large that they use plows and scrap
ers drawn by horses to remove the
earth covering. Nature buried these
extinct animals in a curious way in
certain layers Of earth and rock
Sometimes a part of the layer lies
close to the surface of the plain or
forms portion of the jutting hill
side; the other end of the layer may
be thousands of feet underground. 1t

NAL that had lived before man was.
The mystery was solved few DAYS
ago by an ancient farmer who could
remember the time when Jersey
farmers used horses in the field and
70 drive to meeting Sundays and to
drive to meeting Sundays and to the
liquor store Saturdays. This was be-
fore they all had touring cars and
moor plows. After carefully examin-
ing the rim of metal he declared that
beyond all doubt it was horseshoe,
probably of the late nineteenth or
early twentieth century 1t is now
supposed that the bones formerly be-
longed to the horse that wore the
shoe.
All Pemberton feels cut up over the
affair except Walter Antrim. The
fossils were in a fallow field that he
wanted stirred up anyhow

THE UNION SPIRIT,

At a public school not long ago
the children were training for the
an Al Flag Day celebration. One
boy, in order to show good reason
why he should take prominent part
in the ceremonies, said that he had
a real gun; another had pistol; a
small girl had a flag and so on.
Finally, one tow-headed lad of six
came up. to the teacher and stood
waiting for her to see him.
Well, what is it?" she asked.
'T has a union suit" he said

Conference of Forest Schools
to Be Held in December

The heads of all universities, col
leges, and schools in which technical
forestry is taught have been invited
by Clifford Pinchot, United States for
ester, to attend or send a representa-
tive to the conference on education
in forestry which will be held in
Washington in December. In his let
ter of invitation, the forester says:
81 believe that conference of rep
resentatives of all forest schools and
universities and colleges in which
forestry is taught might be made of
great value to the general progress
of forestry in the United States, as
well as to the institutions which teach

Advice to Correspondents.

Ii you've got thing that's happy,
Boil it down;
Make 1t short and crisp and snappy,
Boil 1t down;
When your brain its coin has minted.
Down the page your pen has sprlnted.
If you want your effort printed,
Boil it down.
Take out every surplus letter,
Boil it down;
Fewer syllables the better,
Boil it down:
Make your meaning plain-express It
So Wen know not merely guess 1t.
Then, my friend, ere you address 1t,
Boil it down
Cut out all the extra trimmings,
Boil 1t down:
Skim it well, then skim the skim
mings,
Boil it down;
When you're sure would be a sin to
Cut another sentence in two,
Send it on and Wen begin to
Boil 1t down.
