BRIGAT FUTURE
FOR THE FARMER
New and Better Day for Rural Resi-
dents Coming Because Of Tariff,
Says Secy. of Navy Daniels.

KANSAS CITY. Mo. Nov. 20.-A
new era OF prosperity and good living
for the farmer under the new tariff
law was prOphesied by JoSephuS
Daniels, secretary of the navy. speak
ing at the 18th annual John Jay ban
quet of the Kansas City Commercial
club here Wednesday night. The
back-to- the-farm movement now
dormant would, he said be revived
in earnest under the improved condi-
tons that are in store for the dweller
in the country.
THE new tariff" said Secy. Dan
iels, which will remove from the
farm the excessive charges for every
article needed in cultivation and in
the home, will cheaper living for the
farmer. The new currency bill that
will soon be law will be followed by
a wise legislation providing for rural
credits and for effective laws which
viii be put into execution against all
forms OF monopoly.
These blessings are almost in
sight, and their gradual unfolding will
mean a new and better day for the
jewellers on the farm. And of course,
when the farmers are prosperous, the
prosperity is the sort that reaches out
INTO the cities and the towns, and
make them prosperous also.
Products of the farm are bringing
better prices and we may look to see
increased interest in the raising OF
cattle sheep and hogs.
Mr.. Underwood is right when he
says that the benefits of the tariff can
not be realized suddenly. But one
benefit will come whenever the beet
trust. for example, puts the price NJ
too high for the products Of the Ar
gintine Republic will come into com
pete with trust prices"

the twins for short time on prOba-

The twins in question are Charles
and Walter ConnOr, the sons of J. c.
COnnOr, living in the vicinity of
Lowell Heights church. Their moth er
died two weeks ago and since that
time the bays have been looking for
home. Mr.. Schafer is doing his best

Family Broken Up.
Their two sisters have been more
fortunate in their quest; a baby Of
nine months old and little girl Of
2 years are both provided for in
families in the neighborhood. Their
father is a laborer and has no one to
look after his home while he works,
so 1t had to be broken up.
The little boys didn't give up their
old home without a protest. The day
their mother died they were taken to
the home of a neighbor. They ac-
cepted the situation willingly enough
until night and then they wanted to
go back. They said so very en-
phatically, but their hosts thought it
just a whim. The boys kept on say

got their way.

Lack of outside labor in the city

Now they show a little evidence of
the neglect that couldn't be helped.
They need a little brushing up and a
little toning down. They need some
one TO take care of them instead of
having 10 take care of themselves.
But they are twins, of course, and
they would like TO go on being twins.
They are used TO team work and
would probably make quite a fuss if
they were to be separated. And two
boys are a great many.

The revival Of the harp in professional
and social circles is one Of the happies'
evidences of the growth Of our people u"
culture, refinement and progress Inc
history of the piano counts as od'

tic records that as early as 1900 b. C.' t"e

the high priest of Osiris, who. in one oi
his daily walks along the banks OF the
River Nile. found an empty tortoise sheh
spanned with dried ligaments. Happen
ing to strike it, he noticed that II gave
forth pleasing sounds, and he at ohce
made an instrument on the plan OF the
tortoise shell. From the Tyre. 1t was put
an easy step to the harp-now the most
famous instrument In the world. Mile
sius. one of the Phoenician priests, car
ried IL with him In his conquest to Ire
land and there he planted 1t among the
music loving Celts in 1860 b. {. The
royal instrument became controlling
feature in Druidical worship, and the
harpist or bard, ranked with royalty
the prophet and the priest. The Druids
advanced the harp from eleven to thirty
two strings and crowned their efforts In
It's Improvement by the evolution of the
pillar, which has ever since found uni
versal adoption.
Our modern harp consists Of forty-'iVe
or forty-seven strings, seven pedais-ohe
for each note in the octave-and the won
derful instrument shares with the piano
and organ the faculty Of being autono-
nous: that is to say. it needs no accom-
paniment, and furnishes both melody and
harmony.
II is not n difficult instrument to learn,
