OPPOSITE IN THEIR NATURE
Those for Whom the World Is Made, and Those Who Are Made for tho
 World, Are Far Apart.

The world Is made for some of us and some of us are made for the world. If the world Is made for us. all we have to do is to Jet 1t take care of us. If we are made for the world we have to take care of it-or at least we work very hard at taking care of ourselves and our neighbors and think that we are taking care of the world.
 A very ugly airedale terrier and 8 very beautiful angora cat live in the same house. He sleeps on big pillow on the back porch, and she sleeps on a little pillow in the kitchen. He gets the big bones, and she gets the little ones. They are equally petted and punished. and to all outward appear ances are enjoying the same fortune of life
 But the world was made for her and he was made for the world. She accepts her pleasant existence with a passive and assured satisfaction She Is the natural recipient of all good things. She and her tail are the crea- tions of supreme interest, not only to herself. but to the family the visi- tors and the neighborhood cats. The food that is given her is enjoyed with the same assurance with which the whitest bedspread, the softest cushion and the center of the hearth rug are appropriated.
 It is different with him. To him life is prize and the world is an achievement. Of course, his efforts consist primarily in hoarding his food but he does not realize that fact. He knows that he is very busy and works hard and he really thinks that the world could not get along without him. The day that he buried his bis cult in a post hole and it fell out of reach. his industry was as untiring as 1t was fruitless. On Thanksgiving day dinner was late. and he had his biggest bone ready for an emergency. When he was called to dinner he came with the bone in his mouth and when the turkey was placed before him he smelled it and hurried away to bury his old bone before he began to eat. You see he does not wait for the world to take care of him. He does not think that there is anything to be gained except by his own efforts. He has abundant faith in himself. but little in Providence.
 And so it is that those of us who are made for the world and to whom life is responsibility that rests en- tirely upon our own shoulders. must work and worry and gnaw our bones over and over again while those of us for whom the world was made have nothing to do but accept it's gracious gifts and be content that they are ours.-Indianapolis Star.

Rules for the Simple Life.

"A simple life exhibition" for the benefit of husbands and wives is to be held in Caxton hall. London. The or ganizers of the exhibition take the matter very seriously indeed. Dem c.Istrations will be given showing the right and the wrong method of test ing a husband and wife. Men will be invited to show how they would treat a wife when they come home from business The audience will de- eide by vote which of the competing males come up to the standard of an ideal husband. The rules for wives are less complicated than those for husbands. They are: First. teach your husband to abstain from meat and intoxicating drink; second, re- ceive him after an absence with tact ; third, cultivate sense of humor. The rules for husbands are: First, make a habit of entering your home with smile; second. little presents, words of love and compliments make a woman's life worth living; third. re- member that woman works as hard as you do, and harder"

About Roumania.

Roumania. as we print the name on this side of the Atlantic, is not so printed at home. It would be nearer the mark to give the word as Ro- mania A Roumanian calls himself a Roman that is. a citizen of Ro- mania We should know less than we do of this country of the Balkans. which thus far has kept out of war with Turkey, were it not for Car man Sylva," the post-queen of that land. author of number of charm ing fairy stories which have been evolved from the folklore of that peo- pie. IL is said that the bagpipes and the shepherds flute are the musical instruments of Roumania, and that the peasant will have nothing to do with the fiddle, which he despises be- cause 1t is in favor with the gypsies. The roads swarm, it Is said with beg gars, whose requests are seldom re fused. for the Roumanian peasant has a faith that aims will be returned to him a hundredfold hereafter,

tims of the storm. Scores of weeping men and women watched the burning wrecks of their homes lighting up the sky,
 Many of the victims, exhausted and almost hysterical, gathered together in family groups and sat on the side walks through the cold rain that fol lowed the tornado.
 The morgues of undertaking places are filled. Friends and relatives of the people who lived in the path of the storm are Hooking to view the bodies. Weeping, hyste rical women stand in front of the undertaking places in small knots begging for in-' formation regarding those they be- lfeve met death. Hospitals are hesieged by frantic persons. all demanding information regarding the injured. Every avail able room in all hospitals in Omaha, south Omaha and Council Bluffs is filled to its capacity. Those who are least injured are placed on cots in the railways and corridors.
 Shortly after o'clock on Sunday evening United States troops, State militia and police threw line entirely around the path of the storm. Loot ing had been going on all during the ! night. according to the police, al l though no arrests were made.
