Nothing In 1t

Sometimes you will throw down your
home paper and exclaim, there's moth
ing in it." Do you ever stop to realize
that the reason there is nothing in the
paper is because there has nothing hap
pened worth printing. 1t is hard for
the editor to find enough interesting
matter with which to fill the local col
umns sf the average size paper even
when things are the liveliest; in a
small place and when every one does
absolutely nothing but hug the stove
and talk about their neighbors, it is
impossible to fill the sheet as it should
be. OF course, every one who has
never tried it could do it, alright, al
right, and better than the editor. and
they will continue to think so until they
try it. Then there are few people
who haven't enough gray matter in
their heads to run their own business,
who think they could run the paper lots
better than the editor, anyhow. They
will never know any better as they
haven't brain enough to even get start
in the newspaper business.

veyance to each of the states in which
public lands are situated 25O,O acres
of land, the proceeds from the sale of
which are to be used solely for the pur-
pose of constructing. improving and
maintaining public highways. States
having less than this amount of re-
manning public lands are to be given
whatever acres the government owns
within their borders.
The bill provides for the selection of
these lands by the variOns state land
boards, or by the governor of state
having no land board, and authorizes
the secretary of the interior to convey
patents to the state upon the filing of
certified designations. The lands are to

Ceod Motto to Have

Do not keep your alabaster box of
love and memory sealed up until your
friends are all dead. Fill their lives
and minds with sweetness; speak ap-
proving and cheering words to them
while their hearts and minds may be
thrilled aid made happier;the kind words
you mean to say when they are gone.
say them before they go. The flowers
you mean to send to cover their coffins,
send them row to help brighten their
homes while they are alive. If any of
my friends have any alabaster boxes
laid away, full of fragrant perfumes of
sympathy and affection, l would rather
have them bring them out now, that l
may become refreshed and cheered
while l need them. would rather
have plain coffin, without a flower,
funeral without an eulogy, than a
life without the sweetness of love and
sympathy. Post mortem kindness does
not cheer the burdened heart. Flowers
placed on coffin cast no fragrance
back over the weary pathway.

largely belongs the credit for the pre-

wish those who have urged me to
stand for reelection to know that l
value and appreciate their friendship
but with other duties calling for my
time think they must agree with me
that fifteen years of continuous service
in the interest of the Sedgwlck County
schools should be my portion, and that
it is now the duty of some one else to
to take up the work.
hope the same cordial support that
has been given me will be extended
to my successor and that he will de-
rive as much pleasure from the work
as have.

the one to take up the work and
shall be pleased to have my friends

The New Electric Theatre
Opened Monday Night.

The New Electric Theatre opened its
doors to a crowded house for both
shows Monday night under the man
agement of Blubaugh and Wescott.
An excellent program was rendered.
Cut Flowers consisting of carnations
and ferns were presented to all the
ladies' present and those in attendance
declared it to be the best moving pic
ture show Julesburg has ever had. 1t
is in fact equal to any that the larger
cities boast of.
The old Star Restaurant building was
remodeled, the petition taken out, the
floor raised and fixtures installed which
makes it an ideal place for the theatre
business.
Messrs Blubaugh and Wescott are
well experienced in the picture business
and they stated that they will continue
to give the public the best shows that
experience and mon+y can buy and in
return should have the support of the
citizens of Julesburg. This city is
further advanced in most projects than
any other place in this secticn of the
state and the people of the town should
not let other places best them in the
theatre lire as long as it is only mat
ter of patronage.

Editor Grit-Advocate;
Julesburg, Colorado.
Dear Sir:
The mail recently brought to my
desk Bulletin No. 118, Growing Crops
in Western Nebrasksa. This bulletin
quotes liberablly from Bulletin No. 1O9,
issued by the North Platte Station and
prepared by the same authors after
much valuable and practical informa-
tion had been gained by later observa.
tions.
The value of this Bulletin rests upon
a close reading of its pages by the men
who do the field work.
At our expense, as Nebraska taxpay-
ers, these men have gone into the
fields with theories of Scientific Soil
Culture" and having worked out in our
kind of soil, their theories, now give
their results in plain words. A close
study of pages 62-63-66-67 and So and
the full text will do much to relieve
your anxiety as to results.
This Bulletin is of special value to
the young men and women who have
their future comfort do establish. This
Bulletin was not written in a Chicago
sky scarper Office but within few
miles of our own homes at our own ex-
pense. Don't fail to read it.

A Very Remarkable Kansas Family

Ne5klahoma is about to acquire re-
markable family. Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Scott of Highland, Kansas are seeking
a location for home somewhere in the
state where they can obtained plenty
of lard. They will need it, for they
have been married not quite ten years.
and are the parents of nineteen child
ren, all of them boys and thirteen of
them living. They hold the record on
triplets, having five sets to their credit.
and two sets of twins. All of the thir-
teen boys living are under five years
old. Mr.. and Mrs. Scott are children
of farmers living near Highland.
Last all the SCOTS, deciding that
they must find more land, went to AL
berta, Canada. They were not satisfi-
ed there and returned. On the return
trip all records in the history of rail-
roading were broken. Mrs. Scott and
her thirteen children all rode on one
first class passenger ticket. At Omaha
the conductor made vigorous protest.
Madam you cannot carry a whole
Sunday school along with you on that
one ticket, and you need not tell me
these are yours, You will have to pay
fare for some of them."
''The rules of this railroad company
provide that child under five years of
age may ride free when accompanied
by its parents with first class ticket,
Loot they?" retorted Mrs. Scott.
They do. but you will have to show
me-"
Then Mrs. Scott dug down into her
valise and brought out the family Bible
in which was recorded the names and
ages of each of the children. The con-
ductor had to give in. The mother and
children occupied five double seats in
the homeseeker's Sar and paid for only
one.

gin with A. They are: Ashbell, Archer

We have been favored by one of our
learned friends with the following ac-
count of the creation of woman. 1t is
translated from an old Transcript book
entitled "The Surging of The Ocean OF
Time" Tradition says there was a
scarcity of solid elements at the time
of her creation:
At the beginning Of time, Twashtri,
the Vulcan of the Hindu mythology
created the world, but when he wished
to create a women he found that he
had employed all his material in the
creation of man. There did not re-
main one solid element. Then Twashtri,
perplexed, fell into profound medita-
ton. He reused himself as follows:
He took the roundness of the moon,
the undulations of the serpent, the en-
twining of climbing plants, the tremb-
ling of the grass, the slendepess Of
the rose vine, the velvet of the flowers,
the lightness of the leaf, the glance of
the fawn, the gayety of the suns rays,
the tears of the mist, the Inconsistency
of the winds and the timidity of the
hare, the vanity af the peacock and
the softness of the down on the throat
of the swallow, the hardness of the
diamond, the sweet flavor of honey
and the cruelty of the tiger, the warmth
of the fire and the chill of snow, the
chatter of the jay and the cooling of
the turtle dove, he united all these and
formed woman, then he made a pre-
sent of her to man.
Eight days later the man came to
Twashtri and said, my Lord, the
creature you gave me poisons my ex-
istence, she chatters without rest, she
takes all my time, she laments for
nothing at all, and is always ill.,. And
Twashtri received the woman again.
But eight days later the man came
again to the god and said, MY Lord.
my life is very solitary since returned
