A Good Neighbor.

A Kansas man died recently and
the local paper in giving the es-
sential facts incident to his life, clos
ed with this sentence, He was a
good neighbor" There the eulogy
ended, abrupt and brief. Naturally
in the little town there was some
criticising. But why? They were used
to extended obituary notices, replete
with high-sounding phrases and trib-
utes which represented probably
what the editor thought was nee
cessary to satisfy his readers rath-
er than the innermost feeling of
the writer Commenting on the above
an exchange strikes the nail firmly
on the head when it says:
(which is the better? There can
be only one answer. What more
could the departed desire than to
have it said of him that he was a
good neighbor' Could anything be
said of him that would bespeak for
certainty his possession for 9TH
er attributes that naturally would
endear him to his acquaintances?
There is more contained in these
simple and old-fashioned words than
could be put into lengthy mem
orial by the most skillful rhetorician
who ever indicated a panegyric to
personal worth. A man who has so
lived that his neighbors will join
in saying he was good neighbor'
may face the unknown firm in the
belief that he has done well here"
$3.50 80 ~
What tribute more wholesome, eff
fective and lasting could be chisel-
ed on granite shaft erected to
the honor of any man than to say
that he was good neighbor.' Do
you. Mr.. Reader, so live that when
your time shall come that those
who have known you may join in
such a token of respect, esteem and
admiration?

jlRCIE COLUMN,

Al Happy Life.

A man who has married for love
IS happy fellow. He is general
ly cheerful and always thinking
about the dear ones at home. He
orefers to live out of town for the
{ sake OF his chilren. He Is rarely
late at business, rises early. gard
ems a little, eats a hearty breakfast
and goes to the necessary labor witt
a light heart and clean conscience.
He often brings home pleasant sur
prise for his wife and children. You
may recognize him in trains loaded
with parcels, which he good-natured
ly carries with perfect unconcern OF
T. what others think--a new bonnet,
music, books, a cloak for his wife;
while in another parcel the wheels
OF a cart, a jack-in-the box, doll
or skipping-rope protrude thru the
paper, and suggest the nursery. He
is brave and kind, though he makes
no noise in the world. The humaniz-
ing Influence of that darling red
checked little fellow who calls him
father, brings a glow of rapture of
the purest pleasure earth holds; for
the man who has never felt tiny
hand clasp his will always lack some
thing-he will be less human, less
blessed than others. This is the no.
BILE, the honest, the only form of
life that imparts real contentment
and joy that will make death-bed
glorious, and love see peace through
its tears. 1t is so purely unselfish,
so tenderly true; it satisfies the
highest instincts. 1t stimulates men
to the best deeds they are capable
of.

The Helpful World.

Give the young and struggling a
word of encouragement when you
can. You would not leave those
plants in your window boxse with
out water nor refuse to open the
shutters that the sunlight might fall
upon them; but you would leave
some human flower to suffer from
want of appreciation or the sunlight
of encouragement. There are few
hardy souls that can struggle along
on stony soil shrubs that can wait
for the dews and sunbeams, vines
that climb without kindly training;
but only a few utter the kind word
when you can see that it is desery-
ed. The thought that no one cares
and no one knows, blights many
bud of promise. Be it the young ar
fist at his easel, the young preach.
er in his pulpit, the workman at his
bench, the boy at his mathematical
problems, or your little girl at the
piano, give what praise you can.

Will INVESTIGATE
Utilities Commission to Look
Into Rock Island Wreck.
Summon Witnesses for the
Hearing at Manhattan.

The Kansas public utilities COM
mission has announced that it will in
vestigate the Rock Island wreck
which occurred near Manhattan last
Saturday and will hereafter investi-
gate all railroad wrecks in Kansas.
The Manhattan Investigation will be
held next Saturday at Manhattan,
when members of the train crew and
officials of the road will be summoned
before the commission.
In pursuing the new policy an
nounced today, members of the utili-
ties commission hope not only to re-
duce the number Of railroad accidents
in this state, but to gather data and
information, which, if properly used,
will greatly lessen the danger of ac-
cident in Kansas. Henderson Mar
tin, chairman of the commission is
enthusiastic over the new plan and
declares that in the future every rail-
road accident in the state will be
made the subject of a searching in
vestigation, not alone to determine
the responsibility of the accident, but
to study causes and supply remedies
which will prevent repetitions of
these accidents in the future.
Add to Safety of Passengers.
Today the members of the commits
sion were in conference with their en-
gineerS and experts and ordered copies
of blue prints of the Rock Island road
at the scene of Saturdays wreck to
be furnished at the hearing. The
commission also announced that it
would summon the train crew and
officials of the road and that testi-
mony will be taken to ascertain the
real cause of the wreck and if pos
sible to supply remedy which will
prevent its repetition.
Every safety device possible should
be supplied for the benefit of people
who travel on the railroads or pa
tronize other public service corpora
tions, said Martin, "and 1 believe
that a genuine and searching inves-
tigation of all wrecks and accidents
in Kansas will have a tendency to
reduce the loss of life and property
as we'll as the number of accidents.
The investigation of the Manhattan
wreck is not alone for the purpose
of placing the responsibility of the
wreck but to find its cause and a
possible future remedy"
In their search for causes and rem
edies, the commission and its en-
gineers will make careful studies of
grades, crossings, and especially
curves. The Manhattan wreck oc-
CURED as the train was rounding
sharp curve and running at a high
rate of speed. There were II people
in the wreck.

WAR STILL GOES ON.
Servians and Albanians Meet in Battle
on Frontier.

Vienna, Sept. 23.-In a fierce battle
today between Servian troops and Al
banians on the new Albanian frontier
200 Albanians were killed and a large
number wounded. A dispatch to a
local newspaper says that the fighting
took place between Dibra and Jakova,
where many of the battles between n
the Servians and the Turks were
fought in the Balkan war.
The encounter was brought about
by an attempt of several thousand AL
banians to penetrate the territory cap
tl1red by the Servians from the Turks.
They were repulsed.
The Servian troops lost one captain
and considerable number of men.
They since have been reinforced.
