There was more activity in pig iron
last week as well as in finished steel
products. there being larger volume
Of business than during any OF the

heaviest in the last three days. Il is
estimated that sales of foundry iron
have been 70. 900 tons. two-thirds Of

able institution are discussing a new
institution. This is school for child

ents are unable to give them the prop.
er care for time at least.
"The question of living is serious
one with many people, said H. G.
Bowman Of the board of control.
There are many widows who are hav-
Ing hard struggle for existence, with
one or two children on their hands.
There are fathers who have hard
time making living and also keep
ing watch on one or two little mother
less tots.
The board has considered the ques-
tion of a school for just such cases as
these. 1t would be school where the
children could be sent temporarily,
where they would receive the very
best treatment and go to school at the
same time. The parents could pay a
little on the cost.

OF fathers and mothers. left to care
for one or more children and the
struggle they have for existence. In
many cases the children do not get
the best treatment and do not have op-
portunities they deserve because the
parent could not provide for them.
If Che state could take these children
off the parents hands for few
months or year or two and let him
or her get a new start and then take
back the children the state would be
doing a great service to the parent
and children.
~ know of numerous cases where
women especially have gone to the
county attorney of their county and
asked him to send their children to
the state orphans home or the indus
trial schools for boys and girls, so
that the women could get started in
life. They are willing to promise to
take bak the children, but they can
not get good start with this handi-
cap If the state could help these peo-
pie 1t would be doing great service
to them and to the children"
In former years there have been in
stances known Of children being sent
to state schools to be cared for while
the mother was earning living and
after the mother got started she got
her children back again. One case
has been reported where father and
mother put two girls in state school
while they took a years trip abroad.

II multiplication OF industries may
be considered an indication of re.
lived and continued prosperity, surely
the United States is supplying ample
testimony of that character There
seems to be especial activity in tex.
tiles. The official statistics show that
within six months 1876 textile mills
have been built, and since January /,
1906, more than 1900 Of these works
have been constructed. A notable
feature Is the development In the
south, and that section, especially the
Carolinas. where water power abounds,
Is In the lead This is an excellent
and satisfactory showing. 1t is proof
that the south, which has the cotton
and many of the other materials for
manufacture, is learning the economic
value OF concentration of effort. When
the south works up large proportion
OF the cotton raised there instead OF
sending the great bulk elsewhere to be
transformed into finished fabrics 1t
will have made still greater economic
gain.

A man tried leaving off meat, pota-

breakfast of fruit, Grape-Nuts with
cream, some crisp toast and cup of
Postum.
His health began to improve ct once
for the reason that a meat eater will
reach a place once in a while where
his system seems to become clogged
and the machinery doesn't work
smoothly.
A change Of this kind puts aside food

A most valuable feature Of Grape
Nuts is the natural phosphate Of pot
ash grown in the grains from which 1t
is made. This is the element which
transforms albumen in the body into
the soft gray substance which fills
brain and nerve centers.
A few days use Of Grape-Nuts will
give one degree Of nervous strength

.L-.aANp FOR FARM LABOR.

The greatest problem the farmer Of
to-day has to meet is the difficulty Of
obtaining and retaining In service
farm laborers The trolley lines and
the steam lines OF the country bring
the farm closer to the towns and the
cities, but they also bring the attrac-
tions OF the city and the higher wages
Of the city workingmen closer to the
farm laborers, and in the great major
ity OF instances. finally detach them
from cultivation Of the soil. The call
OF the wild" is not answered by one
tenth Of the number Of city residents
which the call of the city brings as re-
cruits from the farms, and the result
can be seen all over the world in the
great Increase OF urban population. In
the south the farmers have the advan-
tage OF greater supply Of farm la
borers than those of the north, but
even their field hands are becoming
less numerous through their departure
to the haunts OF the cities in all sec
tons OF the union, says Cincinnati En-
quirer The advances that have al
ready taken place in the wages of farm
laborers do not stop this exodus, and
there are to-day very few native white
Americans who can be properly
classed as agricultural laborers.

II She Had Her Choice.

A gentleman who finds great amuse-

their acquaintance he will select as
her successor when she dies, and who,
one day, had been teasing her with
numberess mock-serious illusions to
the subject, suddenly called their lit
tie daughter to him and asked her,
shaking with laughter at his own wit:
Madeline, how would you like to
have a stepmother?"
The child considered for a moment
and then, with great earnestness re-

Travelling Man Got Even.

A travelling man called on the man.
ager of large New York concern the
other day and sent his card in by the
boy at the outside gate. The boy
sauntered back lazily and told the
travelling man that the manager
wouldn't see him.
"Well, you go and ask him for the
card sent in,' said the caller.
In few minutes the boy returned
from his second trip. Say" remarked
the boy, "the boss told me to tell you
that he tore up that card, but he sent
a nickel to you to pay for it."
The travelling man was deeply in
suited, but he decided to get back as
best he could. He opened his caro-
case and drew out another card, hand
ing 1t to the boy.
"Give this to your boss" he said,
"and tell him that I'll keep the money.
My cards are two for five. Much
obliged"
The manager rushed out of the gate
to find the travelling man, but he was
too late. The man had left.

Clay County Land Soaring.

Clay Center.-As an indication that
the price of land is soaring, along with
the price of hogs, cattle and all other
farm products, 306 acres of Clay coun-
ty land sold for $3S,5OO. This Land is
about a half mile from Clay Center
and is just ordinary Clay County farm
land. 1t is all in one piece, 3O6 acres
in all, 80 the price paid Is at the rate
Of nearly $125 an acre. This Is about
the best price ever paid for Clay coun-
ty land, at least the best price ever
paid for such a large farm, all in one
piece. William Leach, the present
owner, does not give possession until
March /, 1911.

Little Helen, during the three years

but at last the time came when the

The child tried every game and occu-

Finally she gave up and stood and
looked sadly out of the window. Then
she sighed deeply and said:
