c0MMUTER MADE, NOT BORN
Contrary to General Belief. He Is Not Merely Man Who Lives In
 Suburbs.

The commuter Is peculiarly g prod uct of modern civilization. He Is made. not born. Contrary to the general belief, commuter Is not merely a man who lives in the suburbs. but a man who, living in the suburbs. must use the railroad regularly in going to and from the city. Thus automobil- ists, farmers (gentlemen or other wise), and local tradesmen are not commuters.
 It requires great executive ability and perfect self-control to be a sue cessful commuter. One must be able to sleep serenely until 7:3O, get up. dress in dignified leisure, Fletcherize his breakfast, chatting pleasantly the while with his family, and then saun- ter down to the station without the slightest fear that he will get there either ten seconds too early or ten seconds too late for the SOP.
 The men one sees wildly running for the train, watch in one hand and a mutton chop in the other, and the men who get to the station five or six for commuters. They should move back to the city. for they will never be successful. They are neophytes, tyros, bunglers, failures.
 Every college in the country should have it's course in committing. for there could be no better training for a young man who is about to enter business, with its many exactions in the way of method and system.- Judge.

SEAL RELIC OF ANTIQUITY
4 Very Small Thing to Which Great importance Is Some
 times Given.

most absurd thing connected with legal business is the little piece of red, green or blue paper or daub of sealing wax which we often place at the end of a signature to deed, will or other important document.
 It is very small thing in size, but one to which a great deal of inn portance is frequently given. It is a relic of antiquity, and no plausible excuse can be invented for continuing its use.
 Some of the more progressive states have practically abolished its use by legislation, which deprives 1t of any technical legal significance. In others, however, 1t is still used with all seri. ousness and solemnity, and an almost magical value Is given to 1t by digni- fled judges that is little less than ridiculous.
 of his estate to another to enjoy while he lived, with the privilege of devis- ing it at his death to others whom he might select by 8 writing under his hand and seal" A writing was exc cuted so devising the property, but it was contested by others claiming the property upon the technical ground that the paper contained no seal after the signature. and the de wise was therefore void.
 A wise Philadelphia judge closely scrutinized the signature and after carefully listening to the arguments of lawyers decided that at the end of the signature there was an extra scroll or flourish made with the pen with which the signature was made and that this was sufficient in law to constitute a seal

Night.

Along the high-hedged lane John Strong swung. the June glosming deepening into night. He loved to shove his face into the night; he gloried in the uncertainty of night. the indefiniteness of night. and his soul cried back wild answer to the cry of the nighthawk and the owl
 Night is more primitive than day. night is more calamitous, night Is a savage, night everywhere is the true aborigine. Day has taken on civiliza- tion; night hurls the world back te the day of the war-club, the flint ar rowhead. the painted visage. John Strong loved the night with an sl- most malevolent love.

An Important Decision

A copy of a recent decision of the Secretary of the Interior which is ot deep import to all entrymen on desert lands has just been received at the local land office. The decision IS in direct opposition to clause in the statutes which has formerly governed those who make final proofs on desert lands. The new regulation provides that in mak- ing final proof only that part of the land which has been culti- vated, namely, one-eight of the whole need be irrigated but it must be shown that there IS a water supply for the whole tract.
 The clause of the statute that Is affected by the decision is as follows:
 "All of each legal subdivision must be actually irrigated. Therefore it is not sufficient to state that water has been cor ducted on each legal subdi- vision"
 The case on which the new ruling was madeis that of Alonzo B. Cope, of Durango, Colo. Cope attempted to prove up on his desert entry and his proofs were not accepted because a part of his land had not been 1rrigat- ed. The case was appealed several times and finally reached the hands of the Secretary of the Interior, the final court of appeal. The decision Is couched in the following words:
 "Water in arid regions is valu- able commercially, and it's waste by the irrigation of lands unpre- pared for any agricultural use should not be required as a mere matter ot proof that lands can be watered from the system con- structed.
 "As a general rule water rights in western states extent only to the amount of water 'benehcallv used In fact, the desert land act itself, undertakes to limit the right to the use of water to the amount necessary for use, and as the act requires only one-eighth of the land to be cultivated, 1t appears, generally speaking, that the flow ofwater over the remain ing part will be unnecessary waste.
 "If there Is no other objection apparent than noted, in the said decision, the entry ofCope should pass to patent and IS so decided.
 "You are further directe1 to prepare circular for department tai approval ammending the said circular November 30, 1908, in harmony with the view herewith expressed"
 This decision is an important one to Arizona Several thousand desert entries have been made at the local land office in the past year, and in the future 1t will not be required of the entrymen to irrigate their entire tracts and thus waste the water. merely as a proof for the proof for the pur- pose of obtaining patent. .-PhOe-
