OF the tongue, his head ached too
sharply for him to sense a word.
Later, a camel coughed. Camels? And
where were they taking him upon a
camel? Bagdad? Impossible: there
were too many white men following
the known camel-ways. He groaned a
little, but the sound did not reach the
ears Of his captors. To ride camel
under ordinary conditions was a pain
full affair; but to straddle the ungainly
brute, dressed as he was, in a swal-
Iow-tail and paper-thin pumps, did not
promote any pleasurable thoughts.
They would in all truth kill him be-
fore they got through. Hang the rug!
And doubly hang the man who had

His whilom friend, conscience, came

mtad was that if ever he got his hands
upon the rug again, he would hang
on till the crack Of doom, and con-

as life began to spread vigor once
more through his legs, he found the
steel. The straps were too short, and
in time the upper turn of the steel

by riding sidewise, the proper way
to ride a camel, but with constant

anger and pain filed his eyes and
burned down his cheeks in spite Of

And he, poor fool, had always been
longing for an adventure, a taste of
life outside the peaceful harbor where

here he was, in the deep-sea water;

SMALLER FARMS.

As in many of the smaller coun- tries of Europe where intensive farm ing Is carried on, the importance of the small farm is being advocated in this country. both for the purpose of stimulating the back to the farm movement and also increasing the pro ductivity. It is well known that where there are large farms there is always a waste frsm failure to make use of them There is 100 much land for the owner to use in his various lines of effort and the result is that there is a failure 10 obtain from it what it is capable Of producing. The big farm tends to a scattered population and less inclination to social affairs as a community. Thus for social and eco nornical reasons the idea of the small farm. and more of them. has par rfcularly strong appeal
 Many there are who like farm life but shun it because of the lack of neiEhbors- school facilities and church. es which Is so frequently experienced Tn sparsely settled communities. The breaking up of the big farms which are not fully used and creating smaller farms which are made proper use of overcomes many serious objections to life in the country. More attention can he and fs given 10 the small farm than to the big one which cannot be prop erlv handled The putting of more people in the same territory means de- velopnent whether it concerns the farm or tho suburban district and the opportunity for such always inter ests the people.

THE STOCKHOLDERS COMMITTEE

Organized in a spirit of friendship the committee of New England stock holders Of the New Haven road is in a position to accomplish much good in allayirg any fears or restoring shaken confidence in the great public utility which concerns this section of the country vitally If the purpose of the committee is sincere it has a well outlined field of action It can do much in giving support to the road in the provision of transportation fla cilities and the general process of de- velopment in New England which is being worked out For the purpose of lending a hand there is plenty which they can find to do and 1t manifests a much better spirit than that which has characterized the attacks which have had such an undeserved effect upon this corporation.
 What is wanted in every state of New England is transportation facil- ities which will permit of the develop nent which Is demanded. This has been recognized 10 a marked degree by the New Haven road and it has par ticipated in fl constantly both for the benefit of the states. and itself It is the continuance of healthy develop fE-NL ENlEn lS so Tnlc0 OeSlEeu TOT the welfare of this part of the coun- try. T. is difficult to see how the at tacks which have been made have been Of service to the interests of the pub lie They have instead been detri- mental and by overcoming this the committee can be of invaluable service. Whatever can be done for the better ment of New England is always de- sirable and at the present time this effort is most timely if intended to aid and not control.

HIST RECOGNITION.

Much support Is being given the movement which Is well underway in congress in behalf of medals for the surviving participants in the battle of Gettysburg It Is born of a desire to thus honor the veterans who partici- pated n that important battle the fif- tieth anniversary of which is to be observed this summer. The survivors are steadily dwindling and well can congress at this time thus recog- nize their services.
 In advocacy of the plan the Boston Post well says: Bravery self -sacri- fee for an idea, is a virtue in citizens of a republic. even if misdirected. It stands for that inherent force upon which our system is erected. And the proposition to decorate with q bronze medal each survivor of the battle of Gettysburg. on the semi-centennial am niversarv of that struggle-whether he fought for the Union ar for the Con federacy of Southern States-must be approved.
 At this day no scintilIa of the old antagonisms has survived. The con- testants of that bloody field clasp hands as brothers. Each recognizes the valor of his opponents of half 8 century ago. each has accepted the decision of the great conflict and the sincerity of purpose upon both sides"
 If offers the opportunity for further cementing the relations of the north and the south It is not a one-sided proposition but includes all those who bear the distinction of having passed through that great conflict and with it as said before might go those prom ised Port Hudson medals.

(Written Specially for The Bulletin.)
 Several ladies, all of them mothers and housekeepers. had found time to call upon Mrs. Sprague in her pleasant home one afternoon. and it chanced that they had selected the same hour, so one of them named the gathering by saying:
 Why this is a real mothers meet ing and I am sure we shall all enjoy it and profit by it. Don't you think so, Mrs. Sprague?"
 "A good idea" replied their hostess. We all know each other well, and can talk freely about our family affairs, So think we may safely make it an experience meeting
 Yes, let's do," said implusive Mrs. Hale, the first speaker. and I'll open the meeting by saying that I firmly believe that no one should be gov erned by hastily formed opinions. He is sure to be sorry for it afterward and it is so hard to make things right after they have once got a wrong start. I often tell my boy Charlie that he must be careful of what he does and says, for nobody knows how far the influence of his word and deed may go But he is so thoughtless.

CHECKING WASTE,

In connection with the demand and the efforts in behalf of economy and efficiency in the administration of the government and it's expenditures the disclosure that Uncle sam is paving too much for armor plate and that he is not getting the benefit of competi- tive bids promises to bring about a revolution in the naval expenditures. It is an admirable place in which to overcome the waste of money, for while the government must realize the necessity of Providing an adequate navy for the defense of the country, it is not justified in making extraVa- gant expenditures for which value is not received. Waste is to be avoided in every direction possible and mo- where can it be done with more jus tice than in the appropriations for the departments of the national govern ment. When the latest warship to be proposed is calculated to cost twenty millions it is apparent that in that sum which would have constructed two not many years ago. waste should be eliminated as far as possible.
 It is waste and the guaranteeing of funds in any line of business which af- fects it's efficiency. What is being rec commended by the economy and eff ciencv commission for the better oper ation of the government can well be carried into the methods which are used in making it's important con tracts Secretary Daniels having as- certained that there is a laxity in his departunent will have the countrys united support in overcoming it. and it should be started at once.
