RUDYARD NPLING'S REMARKABLE POEM,

The American Magazine for October publishes foNoWir
poem by the greatest of living English poetSl and i is
many ways and by all odds the greatest poem that has al
peared in a decades
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming It on YOU
II you can trust yourself when all men doubt yOuI
But make allowance for their doubling too
It you can wait and not be tired by waiting
Or being lied about don't deal in les
Or being hated don't give way to hating
And YET don't look too good nor talk too WiSe
II you can dream and not make dreams your MASTER
II you can thnk-and not make thoughts your aimJ
you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impoStorS just the Same
II you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
visited by knaVeS to make trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, brokenI
And Stoop and build 'em up with WOrn-out t00ISi
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk It on one turn Of pitch-andtoSSl
And oSeI and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your IoSSi
1t you can force your heart and nerve and SneW
o serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the viii which says to them' Hold OnI'
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with KingS-nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with youI but none too muCh
# you can fill the unforgVng minute
With sixty seconds worth Of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And-Which is more-you'I be Man, my SonI

Hooray for Lexington.

HoOray for good old Lexington,
and that banner county Lafay-
cite.
Last week a township including
the county seat voted to issue
$4,000 bonds to build a macadam
road. The road is to run from
Lexington along the Missouri Riv-
er valley, through Wellington,
Waterloo and Napoleon to the
county line. The bonds we're vot
ed under a new law and there
was practically no opposition. All
the Lexington papers supported
the project. The State under
the new law will contribute as
much money as the amount of
the bonds and the road win be
built Immediately.
1t is estimted tht the amount
Of money provided will bring the
new road within three or four
miles of the Jackson county line.
Then an effort will be made to
complete the road to the county
line and have the jackson county
court extend the road which now
stops at Leyasy east a distance

Thursday in History.

On April IA, 1865, Abraham
Lincoln was assassinated by John
Wilkes Booth. The Civil war be-
ing practically at an end and the
cares of official life weighing less
heavily upon him, Lincoln, with a
party of friends, sought recrea-
ton on that fateful evening at
Ford's theater. He was seated in
a private box enjoying the perfor
nance, utterly unconscious of inn
pending danger and more light of
heart than he had been for years.
The play proceeded without spec
ial incident until 1890 o'clock,
when the audience was thrown in
to the widest excitement hy the
sound of a pistol shot in the pres.
idential box. Booth, who was an
actor, but not on the bill that
night, had entered the box by a
private door and shot Lincoln in
the back of the head. A moment
later he sprang over the railing
to the stage and, brandishing a
dagger at the audience, shouted
tragically, "sic semper URANUS. "
He then rushed through a back
door, mounted a horse and was
gone. Later he was brought to
bay in an old barn near Bowling
Green, Va, and, refusing to sur
render, was shot by Boston Cor
bett, a U. S. soldier. President
Lincoln was taken across the
street to a private residence
where he died the next morning.
The house in which he died is
now owned by the government
and many Lincoln relics are found
in it.

W. R. Van Anglen of Licking
ton, No, has been taking note of
what has been transpiring and
comes to the conclusion that peo-
pie are at last turning their at
tention more than ever before to
the farm. Mr.. Van Anglen Is a
well-to-do farmer and cattle feed
er. He has lived in Lafayette
county many years, and is
familiar with the great changes
in farm conditions. The time
has come" said Mr.. Van Anglen
when men r turning back to
the farm. There is no reason
in the world why they should
not turn to the farm. Years ago
when the life of a farmer was
made up largely of drudgery,
there was not much to attract any
one to the farm, and there was a
great inducement for those on
the farm to leave it and go to
town or the city to live. But
we have had agreat change.
Farm life is now very different
from what it was. l believe in
the next few years we viii find a
great many who are willing to go
out and live on a farm and there
will be less inclination on the
part If those on the farm to leave
it. For a single man or a mar
RED man, the farm today offers
greater inducements than any
other place. The ambitious
married man is furnished
with a house, a garden, a COW,
and other things, such
as fruit and is paid a good salary.
That salary goes a great deal
farther than twice that amount
paid to the young married man
in the city, for the reason that no
rent has to be paid and then
living expenses for the man
On the farm amount to very little
while in the city it is high. And
in the case of the single man, he
also far better off on the farm.
Shorter hours are worked now
than formerly, and he has many
privileges, but not so many temp
tations to spend his money as
the single man in the city.
In either case there is the tele-
phone and the daily papers. So,
after all, farm life has many good
about it. People are also
finding out that money invested
in land is really the only safe
place whereit grows in value and
amounts to something in the
end. "-Drovers Telegram.
