ARE YOU q
SATISFIED

with the manner in which the
house you live in is repaired and
cared for?
If you own your own home and a
room requires refinishing, it is
done as you wish it, If you want
to plant tree or bush and make
a garden you do SO, and it is
YOURS.
Such things cannot be done with
rented property without the con-
sent OF the landlord and then they
are done as he directs.
We have the plan whereby you
may own your home and have it
cared for as you wish. It is as sim
pie as paying rent. Our secretary

INDIAN BUREAU PROVIDES
THRESHER FOR REQ MEN

The lndian bureau has authori.
zcd the purchase of complete
steam threshing outfit for the use
Of the reservation Indians east of
town. The Indians will be requir-
ed to furnish all necessary labor
and bear the total operating ex.
pense. Inasmuch as none are
familiar with operation of a steam
engine. this task will devolve upon
Indian Agent Walter Van Voorhis,
who is handy man, as all must be
who serve Uncle Sam in like
capacity.
The Indians east of town will
thresh a considerable tonnage of
grain this year; greater in fact
than during any previous season.
In the meantime, many of them
are making highly creditable
showings on their homestead allot-
ments and are getting their acre
age into alfalfa, grain and other
crops in a very Industrious manner.

THE POOR WIDOW

The poor widow" has been the
greatest asset the interests have
ever had. She lived before the
war and a defense of slavery was
made because the ''poor widow"
owned five or six slaves which
were her only means of support.
Their emancipation would be a
most cruel thing for it would
reduce her to poverty. After the
war, she became a stakeholder and
any effort to keep the corporations
in bounds would ruin her more
certainly than the loss of her
slaves. After the "neurotics." as
President Taft calls those who
have opposed the extortiops of the
corporations, had got the railroads
under some SORT of control, the
widow turned up az the owner of
industrial stocks, tile dividends on
which were her only means of
living. 1t seems she owns large
blocks Of woollen trust stock and
any increase in the wages of those
who receive from six to eight
dollars a week will ruin the
widow" again.
Out in Oregon she is in terrible
diatress. 1t seems that the poor
widow" owns many twenty-five
thousand dollars lots and acres
upon acres of timber land. The
new tax that it is proposed to
place upon land will take the last
loaf of bread out of her humble
home. The poor widow has had a
long and terrible career and the
future seems as dark for her as
the past has been. Omaha World

MODERN TOWER OF BABEL.

The Titanic was compared to INC
Tower OF Babel and the Carpathia TO
the Rcdccmcr; the folly Of man IN be-
leving that he had conquered the sea
with large vessels was Scathlngiy ar
raigned, and the certainty of death
and the uncertainty Of life were very
clearly explained by Rev. DR.. IL. M.
Wharton, pastor Of the Brantiy bap-
list Church, Baltimore, at the services
there yesterday morning.
"rhc might of God" said DR.. Whar-
ton, asserted itself by the wreck OF
the Titanic, while the courage of man
was plainly shown. Trucr heroes were
never known than those who volun-
tarily stepped aside and stood on the
decks of the sinking ship that a wo-
man might take their seats and be
rowed away to safety. They trusted
in God to the last and went down
singing Nearer, My God, to Thee.
The uncertainty Of life and the GER
tainty of death were never written IN
palmer words. No thought ever
crossed tho mind Of any person on that
Inflated ship that it would sink; it
was said TO be unsuitable.
"Man thought and boaStcd that he
had conquered the sea with the mighty
vessel, such as the Titanic and the
inventions of watcrtight compart-
ments, but he had not. The wreck
of the Titanic shows the sad picture
Of Il lost world"

FAITHFUL WORK.

The expression, Faithful work ID
always OF the sarna size," appeared In
recently published article. It opens
a world OF thought to those who pause
long enough to consider such matters,
besides Offering . generous share OF
comfort and encouragement to those
who sometimes grow dishekrtened at
the apparent result Of their efforts.
It is true that the world is not always
az appreciative as IT might be, but
then while the world has big heart
and, as a rule, kindly disposition, 1t
does not always show It's appreciation
al the moment, says the Charleston
News and Courier. It ia Just this ap-
parent lack Of encouragement that
makes us lose heart at times and won
der whether after all it is worth while
TO do our best. The big things In life
seem to take up 80 much room In the
public eye that the smaller and just
as worthy matters are crowded OUT
At least that Is the impression which
many persons form who See the ef-
fects Of large efforts, whether they be
along constructive, or charitable or ed
ucational lines. In way these ef-
fects are spectacular; indeed there IS
large proportion Of mankind who re-
quire brilliant effects to make them
display interest In passing events. The

results he accomplishes more than up

THE NAME or THE YEAR.

When John reaches bis twelfth birth
day we say OF him that he is II years
old. and We keep on saying the same
thing until be reaches his thirteenth
birthday. Then We make a sudden
sally forward and declare that he Is
13. At no time between the twelfth
and thirteenth birthdays have We stat
ed his age correctly, though some OF
US come little nearer to it by saying
that "he Is IL, growing on 49," Com
mon conversation requires rough-and-
ready way of indicating persons age
with reasonable accuracy, but 1t has
no need of scientific exactness. We
treat the calendar in much the same
way. One year after Christ was born
the frst year of the Christian era end.
ed and the second year began, says
the Portland Oregonian. But, with
colloquial inaccuracy, the time was
spoken Of as "the year one" until the
second year was finished, just as we
say John is one year old until his
second year on earth Is completed.
Then We say he is two years old until
he is three. The first century OF the
Christian era comprised the time be-
tween the birth of Christ and the year
100, the second century ran from the
year 100 to the year 200. and SC on.
Each year as 1t passes has name, but
the name is not the same as its num-
Der. For example, the year which
goes by the name 1912 Is really the
thirteenth year of the twentieth cen
fury.
