Puts Job in Second Place.

A Humboldt rancher returned from
a years trip through the east to find
that a one-time neighbor Of his, a
man noted for his perfect patience,
had been having a siege of bad luck.
Upon hearing the news he imme-
diately sought out the neighbor to
condole with him.
Well, john" he said, after greet
Ings had been exchanged, II hear you
lost all Of your timber through. the
forest fires"
The other man nodded.
And they Sal that the river cut
off your best bottom land; that your
hogs all died of cholera; that your
wife and children had been sick, and
that they have now foreclosed the
mortgage on your other place."
John nodded again. yes, it's all
true he said, looking about him at
what had once been his prosperous
farm, "all true. Why. sometimes / get
almost discouraged."-Ladies' Home

Before building at all, look care

possible for you to live there after

w WAsH1NGTON.-The legislature Of
w Virginia is now considering the
proprtety of enacting a law which will
do away with a 25-cent admission fee
charged at the gate to Mount Vernon,
the home of Washington. Earnest pro-
tests have been made by many citi-
zens of the state against the charging
OF any fee for admission to the
grounds, on the theory that the public
generally, without restraint, ought to
be free to enter the grounds and in
spect the many interesting things
that are to be found there. The legis-
lature Of Virginia originally incor-
porated the ladies' society which owns
the Mt. Vernon estate, and has made
1t what 1t is today, and of course an
amendment Of that act, cutting out
the admission fee, may be made when
ever the legislature In its wisdom sees
ft. Two years ago, when the legis.
lature was in session, similar move
ment was put under way, but there
was not legislation. This time the ef-
fort has been renewed with increased
enthusiasm, and the no-fee bill is now
before the house committee on laws,
