Grain Men Learn
Reason of the Slow
Southern Demands

Local grain dealers have at last found
the solution as to the reason southern
ports: such as New Orleans and Caves.
ION. are not clamoring for NebrasKA
wheat. The solution OF the problem Is the
fact that gulf cities are receiving export
wheat from the fields OF Kansas and
OKLAHOMA at a rate 2% cents cneapvi
than ne Nebraska dealers can supply the
commodity. This Is partially due 70
cheaper transportation rates owing 20 a
lesser distance and 20 the fact that the
crop OF the two states mentioned has
been unusually good this year. As a
result Baltimore and cities OF the At

fndulgent Auntie Thinks Girls
Should Have Fun While

Denver.-Miss Patsy Campion. whose
father, A. j. Campion, made millions in
Colorado mining camps, a just
cashed a check for $4S.O 200. given to her
by her aunt, Mrs. Anna 4. Sigel. one
of the richest wome of the west. who
believes in what she calls 1.-The democ-
racy of spending" for young American
girls, and is testing her theory in the
case of her niece.
II know Patsy will come into a largo
fortune when her parents die" says
Mrs. Sigel, but gave her this money
to spend in having a good time. 1 think
it is a protection to young girls to be
able to satisfy their own ideals as to
dress and amusement while they are
young. and not to be dependent on their
parents aid. Democracy of spending
not only improves a girls power Of
judgment, but makes her better quail
fled to n values in all things and
will make her a better housewife.
besides. in the case of rich girls,
1 believe in them having a good time
while they are young, rather than to
wait years and years for their parents
estates to come to them. when they are
too old for fun"
Miss Campion some day will be very
rich. out her mother is very conser-
vatfve in her ideals. and has st%eadfast-
ly refused to permit her to wear ex-
IRENE styles or to indulge in many of
the pleasures that other rich girls AVE.
Now. however. she has the means to
buy as many fancy gowns as she likes.

Arsenic in quantities SURPRISING the
percentage of the only other spring of
its kind in the world has been. dis.
covered in the waters of the springs at
Arrowhead. north of San Bernardino,
Cal. According to the analysis the
water at Arrowhead was found to con
tain o~ne-twentieth of a grain of
arsenic to the gallon, while that of the
only other known spring IN the world.
at Bourboule, France, contains one
~sixty-seventh of a grain to the gallon.
This latter percentage of arsenic is
found in tea caves in Waterman

France. are considered to be of such
value that the government has erected
a sanatorium costing $4,000, 900 for the
