was the subject of some discussion,
all tending in the same direction.
The point really being one OF a nues-

Section 4 was made to read:

services when acting in the discharge
of his duties, the same rate of salary
as the police justice and same shall be
deducted from the salary of the po-
lice justice.
The ordinance as a whole having
been adopted nominations for the of.
flee were in order.
The first name presented was that
Of Attorney John I. Haney. In max
ing the nomination it was stated that
Mr.. Haney had requested that if there
should be bther applicants for the of.
flee, that his name be withdrawn.
The explanation was received with

the advice given by Charles Harris,
director of the state free employment
bureau, which has charge of the task
of furnishing surplus harvest hands to
the farmers of Kansas. The earliest
call for harvest hands he has on
file is for June 2 in one of the border
tier of the southern counties and he is
of opinion that the men wanted there
are not for harvest proper but will
be supplied with work for several days
previous to the actual opening of the
harvest in order to be sure of having
hands when most needed Mr. Harris
is of opinion that it would be Of bene--
fit to both the farmer and of those
seeking employment We're more indi-
vidual farmers to write the bureau as
to the hands needed at individual
ranches or farms. so the men could be
sent individually from the office in the
state house when they made inquiry
there, or directed by letter, on inquiry
through the mail.
Every city clerk in the state of Kan
sas is now. under the law, an agent
of the free employment bureau, but
many neglect the work, as the law en-
forces no penalty The work, there
fore, of the bureau has to be largely
done through correspondence with
leading citizens in the various counties
of the wheat belt, who inform the bu-
reau OF the number of hands needed
in the county, and the number neces-
sary at the various towns or points Of
delivery in the various counties To
these points the bureau directs the
harvest hands. An Improvement on
this method, Mr. Harris thinks, would
be, in addition, to encourage individual
farmers to write the bureau direct
and ask for the number of hands need

About HAPPINESS.

There Is no more beneficial tonic
than good, hearty laughter. 1t IN
fates the lungs and has a magic eff.
feet upon the system. Giggling is not
laughing, and 1t is a habit that brings
wrinkles and soon spoils even q pref.
ty face. Why not laugh? It improves
the appearance and makes one popu-
lar. There is nothing to be glum over,
and, II there is, being glum will not
help 1t. Be happy and bright and
everyone will wish to help you. The
girl who wants TO be beautiful must
sleep with fresh air, plenty Of 1t, in

in the sunshine. She must find plenty
Of laughter in her daily life. That IL

way capable of bringing beauty.

and her host took great pains to ex-
plain to her whatever she didn't under
stand about the farm. He had little

delighted to test her gullibility to
the utmost.
The cows seemed to interest her
more than any other domestic animal.
One Of the cows had lost her tail
somehow and this fact led the woman
to ask why 1t was.
That's the sour milk cow" the
farmer explained with a straight face.
We always cut the tail of one COW
in the herd so as to get sour milk
fresh every day." .
The woman looked her doubt.
TITS perfectly true" the farmer in.
sisted. "You see when the cows tail
Is gone the sun shines continually on
the cows udder and the constant heat
sours the milk"
But the woman still doubted.
