Mary had little lamb,
And when she saw it sicken,
She took it to slaughter house
And now it's potted chicken.
Two men on bicycles approached
each other in such manner that the

out of the tangle, the cross-eyed

look where you are going?" The
other man replied, "Why don't you

After the parade, the bass drum

into thirst emporium for a drink.
An hour later a friend found them
with their heads pillowed on their

and the instruments were on the
floor near them. Their friend, base

In a small hotel up the line, a

Speaking on the subject of woman
suffrage reminds me of another story,
but not on the woman this time. A
wealthy New York lady-they are
always wealthy and pretty in New
York-was trying to convince
friend of hers of the need of wo-
man suffrage. The friend said: "But
just think Of having your cook go
down to the polls and deciding ques-
tions of taxation, mayorships, etc. .
"That's just what he does" replied
the lady.
Mary McFaddan, able writer for
the Duluth News-Tribune, attended
the recent meeting of the Minnesota
Editorial association at Minneapolis.
She says the best story she ever heard
on woman suffrage was told on a wo-
man of the new type whose husband
was sitting in chair, head bowed,
and sorrOwing over some business re-
verses. The woman went over to
him and placing her hand on his
shoulder tenderly remarked, "Never

THE INDIAN SCHOOL

He saved the Indian School for
Mt. Pleasant, after the commissioner
of Indian affairs had recommended it's
suspension. And not only is he to be
credited with the continuance of the
school, but, in addition to the reg
ular biennial appropriation of over
$4,000, he got $4,000 for an office
building over there, $4,000 for en-
larging the hospital, $4,000 for two
additional lavatories, and $4,000 to
build a boys dormitory-so that room
to take care of many more pupils
is now provided. At the present
session he succeeded in getting en-
ough money to take care of 325 pupils
instead of ESQ, it's former capacity.
These appropriations assure the con-
tinuance of the school for years to
come.

It is true that somewhat more team
force must be kept where mares are

the greater returns obtained by reason
of the production of colts are consid-
cred, mares are found to be by far the
most profitable for farm work.
1t is generally considered that three

upon the size and quality Of the colts

In handling his mares.
Intelligent horsemanship Is ALSO
lutely necessary where mares are en-
ployed for farm work. and the lack Of
such intelligent horsemanship is re
sponsible for the use Of geldings or

our farms.
Men who are careless OF ignorant
always have so-called bad luck with
their mares. They either fail to get

such manner that they lose their colts

FOUGHT HIS WAY TO FREEDOM
The Emperor Of Rome Admired the
Courage and Pluck Of
caraetaeuS.

One Of the most unique captives
ever brought home to Rome by Julius
Caesar was Caractacus Of the early
britons. This great chief lost every
thing in lighting to drove out the
Romans and was taken prisoner with
MS wife and children. When brought
before the Roman emperor the proud
ruler OF the primitive people never
showed the least fear. His arms were
chained, and the emperor roared to
try to brighten Caractacus. but the
brave chief never so much as Quaked.
Instead he looked the monarch In the
eye and said:
You fight to gain the whole world
and to make everybody your slaves. l
fought to keep my own land and for
freedom"
The great courage the chief showed
finally touched the heart Of the en-
peror. and the ruler of the Romans
resolved to see II C%aractacus would be
~ brave when facing warriors. On
one OF the great holidays In Rome
Caractacus was taken to the great
open-air amphitheater where the 'popu-
lace gathered. He was told that II he
could defeat the bold knight that
would be sent against him he could go
back to his home. Caractacus fought
as he never had before; for some.
thing sweeter than his life was at
stake-that Of his wife and children.
Justice seemed to have tempered the
metal Of his weapons, and when he
struck the strong armor Of his antag
onist gave way before his fearful
blows. The result was that Ca~ractacus
and his family returned to Britain and
to happiness.

young foal. Dead colts are proof Of a
mans ignorance or negligence. Rear.
ing good stock requires responsible
owners and employees.
1t is perfectly clear, however, that
when the work done on a farm by two
geldings is equally as well done by
three mares at a very slight expense
In the feed cost. and when such extra
feed cost Is Offset with a balance Of
500 or $3.50 to spare, that 1t is an
economic waste not to use mares The
man who has not used mares in his
work is short the 500 or $3.50 which
the other nan has secured through
the intelligent use Of good draft
mares in his farm work.
The man who has not used mares
and produced colts has benefited no
one. His farm has produced that
much loss. These colts might as we'll
have been produced and their sale
would have added to his own wealth
and to that Of the community where
he resides.
