Sleep and Happjress.

DIR. Henry Smith Williams, VINO
wrote "The Science of Happiness" ia
an advocate of early rising. He made
1t almost a gospel in his book. and
although he requires only about six
hours sleep himself he practices what
he breaches and rises early. While
writing THE Science OF Happiness
he cut this period an hour or even
two hours shorter for weeks at a
stretch. not burning midnight oil, but
retiring at comparatively early hour
and rising correspondingly early. AS
an example. DR.. Williams cites the
elder Pliny. 1T appears that in sum.
mer lie always began his studies as
soon as II was night; in winter gener-
ally at one in the morning, but never
later than two and often at midnight.
No man ever spent less time in bed;
insomuch that he would sometimes.
without retiring from his books, take
Il short sleep and then pursue his
studies

OLD HIGH FINANCE

Frenzied finance Is not exclus-
lively habit of recent years. At
the Riggs National Bank, in Wash.
ington. says the Popular Magazine,
there is carefully guarded a proof
of the foregoing assertion.
Regarding the proof Of the fore
going story:
One winter morning. Henry
Clay, finding himself in meet of
money went to the Riggs Bank,
and asked for the loan Of two
hundred and fifty dollars on his
personal note. He was told that
while his credit was perfectly
good it was the inflexible rule
Of. the bank to require an ir-
dorser.
The great statesman hunted up
DanieI Webster and asked him to
indorse the note. ...
70 with pleasure. said Webster.
but | need some money myself.
Why not make your note for five
hundred. and you and will split
it,"
This they did. And today the
note is in the Riggs Bank unpaid.

NO SLOUGH

The men in the Pullman smoker
were arguing as to who was the
greatest inventor. One said
Stephenson, who invented the
locomotive and made fast travel
possible. Another declared it was
the man who invented the COM
pass, which enabled men to navi-
gate the seas. Another contended
for Edison. Still another for the
Wriahts.
Finally one of them turned to a
little man who. had remained
silent. Whom do you Think"
"Vcl," he said with a hopeful
smile, "th1 man who invented
interest was no slouch."

SENATOR THOMAS P. GORE

Senator Thomas p. Gore, the
blind senator of Oklahoma, arrived
this morning to fill his engagement
as the first number on the high
school lecture and entertainment
course. His talk tonight will be
about public affairs in general.
He told tho reporter that he had
no set address or high sounding
name for it's title.
the reporter found him in his
room at the Commercial hotel in
company with Stanley Davis who
was rea ling to him from a maya
zine. He greeted us cordially and,
in response to the request for an
interview, he said that he had
nothing in particular to say to the
people. He then discussed public
matters, particularly the leading
democratic candidates for prcsi-
dent, Wilson, Clark and Harmon.
While he had nothing to say
dlrOgatory to either Clark or
Harmon, he said Governor Wood
row Wilson was the strongest
candidate the democrats could
Illuminate and that he was confident
Wilson could be elected much
easier than Clark or Harmon. lie
said he was surpricd at the
return of Senator Nixon from n
democratic state, when republican
states were clccting democratic
senators. He also asked many
questions about Elko ana Elko
county.
Senator Gore talked very
cntertainingly and impressed the
reporter as being a man of strong,
sincere convictions on public
questions with the courage
necessary to put his convictions
into practice. He is certainly not
a man who trims his sails to every
passing breeze to catch the plaudits
of the minimizing mob.
1t is not often the people Of Elko
have the opportunity to listen to a
man Of Senator Cores ability and
standing in public affairs and all
who can should be at the Opera
House tonight. Let US give
Senator Gore a genuine Nevada
Welcome.
