Nero.
lRy George Fitch. ,

| bS NicOl < 1CGh.
 Nero was a human being who
 disguised the fact more success fully than any other historical
 parsonage. Ha was born 1876
 years ago, but the fact isn't cele- 1bratcd anywhere. He was edu- catad by private tutor and was
 adopted by the Roman emperor
 Claudius, who soon died, as most
 of the Roman emperors did. and
 left the throne to Nero.
 Nero was at this time a hand
 some youth who could fiddle pret- ty well and was very popular so-
 cially. He started out with the intention of being a good emper- I.or, but this fact soon slipped his
 mind and he poisoned his mother, iAgrippina, who was something of ia politician herself. and began ito run the empire alone.
 It was the widest joy ride hat any nation ever experienced. Nc-
 ro slept days and raised thunder nights. His morals were so bad that even the Romans were shock ed at them, and he was so naughty and diSagreeahlc that his eXecutionrrs had to work in four
 hour shifts. Nero soon became
 the most fatal disease in Rome.
 Any one who failed to please him was at once rXterIminated. If he was an enemy he was boiled alive. If he was personal friend he was
 beheaded as a favor Pleasing Nero soon became the popular Roman pastime and the losers were collected by the coroner. Nero spent all the money in the treasury on the Roman equiv alent for chorus girls and let them. run the nation. He was so reck- less that one night when fuse burned out while he was at a stunning party he burned the city of Rome to provide light. and tiddled while he firemen worked. He had a great hatred of Chris tians and considered no day we'll spent unless he had wrapped up a few hundred of them in skins soaked in pitch and set fire t." them. Nero gave more than one garden party at which the illum- nations were furnished by burn ing Christians. This was the or
 igin of the ornamental street lighting idea now so popular.
 Nero might have lived to a great old age. but it soon became evident that both Nero and the Romans couldn't survive. The supply of the latter was rapidly becoming exhausted. So few plots were started and finally Ne TO discovered that unless some thing was done quickly he would be cut into bits and distributed to the populace. He did the something himself with sword and ten minutes afterwards life insurance rates in R0men went down 90 per cent.
 Thsre is no lesson to be learn ed from Nero, because outside of the few humans who sell poisonS for medicine and work little chiI- i dren to death in their mills we have none of his sort left.

Reinke can fix anything from a watch down.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1913-03-21

secured Over 60 ear loads of brick
and more than 45 car loads of lumber
were consumed in the construction of
the warehouse.
The Rolfe Construction Co. of Mil
waukee were the contractors on plans
drawn by Claude & Starck of Madison.
Later, James McClymont of York, Pa,
architect, was called to supervise the
construction, while T. A. Ellingson,
state representative of the Eisenlohr
firm, had watchful eye over the build
ing from start to finish. The Otto
Eisenlohr & Bro. have increased their
business until their cigar output now
reaches about 200 million year. Truly
phenomenal success for an individual
firm, achieved evidently solely on the
principle of merit.
The Wisconsin business of this firm,
which is becoming the most extensive
in the state, has been placed in excel
lent hands in Mr.. T. A. Ellingson, who
enjoys the entire confidence of his en-
ployers as we'll as of the tobacco grow
ers, which of itself is valuable asset.
The people of Edgerton ought to feel
proud of this new improvement, as its
location here means employment to a
large number of hands during the han
ding season.
