SELF ENMITY.

Most people are their own worst
enemies. says Orison Sweet Mar
den in "Success Magazine" 3" We
are all the time "queering" onr
life game by our vicious. tearing
down thoughts and unfortunat ,
moods. Everything depends upon
our courage. our faith in ourselves,
in our holding hopeful, optimis-
tic outlook; and yet, whenever
things go wrong with us, whenever
we have a discouraging day or an
unfortunate experience, a loss or
any misfortune, we let the tearing
down thought, doubt. fear. des-
pondency. like a bull in a china
shop, tear through our mentalitics

THE OHIO WAY.

In jefferson township, in the
great State Of Ohio, it is said that
every voter has been disfranchs-
ed and indicted for J'lling his
vote. The voters were bought for
$1.O0 up and included even the
preachers. This whob sale vote
buying took place in Adams
county, carried by the Republican
NOMINEES for governor. No doubt
this is the way that Ohio has been
going Republican for years, and
the probe that has now been
started should be made deep and
wide. East Carroll Banner Dem
Ocrat.
There's some speed to this.
We thought, after reading the
series of statements issued by the
"reformers during the last extra
session. when the election of a
United tates Senator was under
consideration, that Louisiana was
the limit when it came to political
rottenness, but our beloved and
patriotic insurgents, self-styled,
had better extend their salvation
work to Ohio. They are "going
some" out there and the attention
of our Republican friends, who
believe or profess TO believe that
everything which savors Of Re
publicansim is pure and holy, here
and elsewhere, is respectfully
directed to this fact. 1t IS not
a case of optical illusion in Ohio
as it was in Louisiana in the early
part of last month when Louis.

HOW TO BURN OUT STUMPS.


Get good axe, post hole dig
ger and match and You are rea-
dy for business. Take bolt out of
hoIc-dlggrr and yDu have two lit
tie spades with which TO dig the
holes around the stump. Give
one OF these to your partner and
put hlm on the opposite side of
the stump from YOU Begin the
.hClcS 10 or H. inches from the
stump; dig towards the center of
,he stump, striking the tap-root
at least Is or 20 inches below the
surface of the ground then curvo
the hole around the stump till YOU
connect with a similar one being
dug by your partner on the 9th
er SIDE of the stump Make the
bottom of the holes 10 or - inch
cs IN diameter and remove all the
dirt well from around the stump
at the bottom Of these holes, but
beng careful not to remove or let
fall IN any of the surface dirt
above the hole. You want to form
a little furnace around the tap
root of the stump. and if you let
the arch above fall in, your fire
box is ruined for the best service.
Now START your fire in the bottom
of the hole, and after you get
things hot down in there you can
step back, and with much pleas
ure see the roaring flames rapid
ly taking the stump out for you.
The higher the wind, the faster
the burning.
All partly decaycd stumps will
burn in short while and with very
little attention, after the fire is
started. The soundcr and firmer
ones will call for attention. They
mus be kept hot and burning all
the time or your fire will go out.
a new piece Of wood should be
put in the little furnace as often
as the fire shows signs of weak
ening. Don't let them 90 out
even If some one has to stay up
with them all night. In fact. u
stump seems to burn much faster
at night than in the day. When
one stump burns off, split it up
for fuel to finish the slower burn
ing ones, and TO start Fire around
new ones.
All small stumps are dug
around and cut off with an axe.
We never put fire to one less than
s or 10 inches in diameter. As q
rule, the larger the stump the bet
ter it will burn. just little
practice and YOU will be surprised
to see how fast You can take them
out Go after them with the de-
termination to get them and they
will come for you, and remember
when you do get ONE, that it is
tie last time that stump will eve.

BOARD TO ENFORCE BIRTH

I CERTAIN persons in Louisiana

Idlstlnctly is of Il Young GIRL Who

in possession, She looked over
the Bible whcre the dale # he"

mother and found the leaf torn

that he might have illegally made

remembered that a cow of Very
fine breed had given birth to

custom. had entered the birth o.
the blooded calf in a book which
he kept for that purpose. BY thai
book it was proven that the girl

DR.. Bowling.
DIR. Bowling illustrated the case
when he was speaking of the |
failure of certain persons in Lou
Isiana to register the birth Of their
children. He said that it was not |
so much the fault Of the parents
as it was of the physicians and !
who are according to
law, compelled to ne Ike a report of
the birth of any child,
Law Enforcing Reports.
According to DR.. Dowtling. a
law was enacted some time ago
oy the Legislature making it a
for a physician, mid
wife or the parents of a new born
.hild. to fail to report the fact to

mum penalty is $50. or imprison-
ment for 60 days. according to DR..

DR.. Bowling stated that GER

states that the proposed enforce

APPLICANTS FOR IOWA DEER.
Several Persons Want Animals Roam
inc Western County,

ing "oSSOrn AounSys
Council Bluffs, Aug. Is With the
idea that the new state law for the
restrain, of deer in the state OF Iowa
may be invoked this fall with some OF
the deer along the Nishnabotna river.
In the eastern portion OF Pottawat:amie
county, there have already been In
quiries for some Of the deer from other
portions Of the state. 1t is believed
there will be no trouble in securing men
70 take all the deer that 1t may be
necessary TO remove from the usual
runs along the Botna.
The new law. which went into effect
last April provides that when the deer
in any locality begin to ravage the
crops to such an extent that it is
necessary to restrain them, it shall be
done under authority and direction OF
the state game warden. The deer must
not be shipped out Of the state. but
shall! be distributed among persons re-
siding in Iowa who are willing 10 pay
the expense Of capture and distribution,
Already application for one pair Of
young deer has been made to Deputy
Game Warden w. a. Groneweg. No
action has as yet been taken. however,
looking to the capture Of any deer along
the Botna this fall. Should such action
become necessary. however. 1t is 10.
believed there will be any difficulty at
all in securing takers for all the deer
that may be secured.
