They say, ah well, suppose they do,
But can they prove the story true?
Why count yourself among the they
Who whisper what they dare not say
Suspicion may arise from naught
But malice, envy, want of thought.
"They say.." But why the tale re
hearse,
And help to make the matter worse?
No good can possibly accrue
From telling what may be untrue;
And is ii not noble plan
To speak of all as best you can?
eThey say!' Well, if it should be SC
Why need you tell the tale Of woe?

And lest, in dark temptations hour
Thou, too, should'st sink beneath its

MILK AT 8 CENTS PER QUART.

People generally are prone to com
plain of the high cost Of milk, but ac-
Icording to State Dairy and Food Com
missioner w. B. Barney, there is as
much nutrition in a quart of milk
costing s cents, as there is in Is
cents worth of beef, costing % cents
La pound, or 30 cents worth of eggs,
costing IS cents a dozen.
The way to beat the high cost of
living question is to study nutritive
values of different foods and obtain
the most nutrition for the money.
For instance, if you like bread and
milk you can set bounteous meal
for two persons for Is cents and get
las much nutriment as you would Sc
cure out of 90 cents worth of eggs. A
loaf of bread weighing sixteen ounces,
can be purchased for cents. A loaf
Eof bread has as much nourishment as
ithirty-two eggs, according to Mr.
Barney's table. A quart of milk, at S
cents, equals ten eggs in nutritiye
value. The combined cost will be IL
cents and the combined nutritiye val
lue will be thirtytwo eggs, worth
about 80 cents at 35 cents dozen.
Or you can even cut the edge off
this saving. if YOU really want to re
duce the cost of living.
Corn meal mush and milk make
mighty good feast. A pound of cor,
meal, costing cents. contains tn,
nutrition of about thirty eggs. costing
at 30 cents dozen, about SIS cents
a gallon of milk, costing 80 cents
equals forty eggs, costing about s11F
A gallon of milk and a pound of cor,
, meal, made into mush, will feed unit
, a bunch of people at total cost q
80 cents. The same amount Of muir
ton would cost s19O if eggs form N
: menu or about 80 cents if beef is tn
: food -
Mr. Barney's figures will prove il
teresting and are as follows

departure by the regulation that all
of the mail from another train, even
though the latter be late, must be
transferred to it. The operation of
this regulation often caused serious

the inconvenience and loss of many
persons. Hereafter if train is late
only the first-class mail will be trans
ferred from it to its connection, so
that there may be no unreasonable
delay in train departures.

About y-five centuries ago, in the
old biblical days, there lived in Shu-
shan, in Persia, man named Hannah.
He was self-made and was very proud
of his work, and one night he invited
number of his friends to his house
to hear him talk. He frankly con-
fessed how great man he was; he
dilated on the wealth he had accumu-
lated; he Dragged in twentieth CEN
fury style about the clever things his
wonderful children did; he boosted OF
being solid with the king and of the
promotions and increases of salary
awarded him during the last year. He
waxed eloquent over it all. Every
thing seemed coming his way, and that
very day he had received an invita-
ton to little private supper to be
given by Queen Esther to himself and
the king.
Hannah distended his chest right
valiantiy as he said: Ard tomorrow
am invited unto her also with the
king
1t was so delightfully."- human, this
putting of himself first, to get under

Ger Toner hauled on this pavement
with one team train Of five wag-
ons loaded high with $40 bushels Of
corn weighing over eleven tons.
After the object lesson OF this road
the farmers Of that township who
voted against the local bond issue for
the pavement, are now boosting for
more. and Mr.. Kincaid offers $4,000 In
addition to his tax for q pavement to
be laid to his farm.
It is idle to talk about the disadvant-
age Of having horses shod, for the
same fine dirt road that we now have
lies alongside the rural pavement.
Horses will travel there when the
roads are dry. In wet weather they can
travel on the pavement without need
ing to be shod unless the team Is kept
on the road constantly. In winter time,
when pavements are of the most val
ue, teams should be shod anyway If
they have much road work to do.
In town property owners who never
ride will pay as much tax on single
town lot for the benefits Of q paved
street as owners Of a quarter section OF
land will have to pay for rural pave
ment, and they want them for the
same reason that they want bath tubs
furnaces, city water, sewer service,
electric lights. telephones and gas in
their homes. Farmers have secured for
themselves every luxury that the town
man has except paving. Why not reach
out for that and quit arguing as to
whether the tallow candle ought to
give way to the incandescent lamp!
