Didn't Talk English

A policeman was a witness in Judge
Martins court one day last week. He
seemed to be just bullying with infor-
nation.
What do you know about this
happening, off1cer?" asked the prose-
cutor.

Prisons as Schools

convicts, however, are qualified for
that work, and little can be done on
roads in winter, so at best there is a
lot of time going to waste.
Prisons and jails have been consid-
cred schools of crime, but the warden
of the State penitentiary of Nebraska
is trying to make his place school
in which to learn useful knowledge. A
correspondence course has been estab-
lished there, the studies including all
the regular University of Nebraska
educational extension work and all the
common school branches. The univer-
sity RENTS all fees and gives regular
credits for examinations. The expert
ments is promising thus far. and, In
view of the splendid record of cores
pondence schools generally, Warden
Fenton has every reason to believe
results will fully justify his expecta-
tions. = From the Popular Science

One of the curses of modern life Is
the unwillingness of young men 10

women is most disastrous. They lVe
unnatural and unhealthful lives ano
often become abnormally selfish be-
cause they are completely aosorpeu "a
getting the most they can Tor them
selves, and consequently think very
little about others
The false ideas, expensive habits,
and passion for show of many men
and women are, in a great measure,
RESPONSIBLE for this deplorable con-
dition of things.

It does net require so much courage
to live the life we can afford to be
genuine, true, Indifferent to what our

who are wealthy will think more OF

Every one owes it to himself to live

"UncalIed For Cigarettes"

That sign in a store window on West
street, New York city, attracted the
attention of reporter the other day.
Being curious as to why cigarettes
should be uncalled for he Investigated
and found out.
The place advertising the "uncalled
for cigarettes" Is a factory where
special brands are made, with the
monogram of the purchaser on each
cigarette. Many persons order the
special monogramed cigarettes at a
cost of 50 to SO a hundred, and then
fail to call for them. The maker
after holding them for a time, se,s
them for one cent each. Hence the
sign in the window.

Human life is valuable-some more

the great problem is how to get the
most of real worth out of life. Some

extreme / know a man, real worker,
who actually begrudges every hour he
is obliged to spend in sleep because
for want of time he cannot do nearly
all the things he would like to accom-
plish. However, the men who do
things in the world are those who con-
serve their time, and do not spend an
hour at some task they can perform
in twenty minutes. About the most
worthless thing in human life, for
years past, has been the time of

contractors, and recently they have

But you do not always obtain the
equivalent in values for your Ameri-
can currency. These various seaport
towns swarm with Chinese money
changers. These Monaghan f1nanciers
deduct a rebate of from to per
cent. for every $40 in American money
exchanged. When you travel in the
interior localities of Japan, av ay
from the beaten track of tourist traf-
fic, you will be compelled to pay even
a higher rate of exchange, as the Jap
merchants refuse to accept foreign
coin in exchange for their wares un-
less they are easily accessible to some
nearby seaport town.
The Jap nickel. or 5-sen piece, will
buy five or six times as much for a
Jap in his own country as the same
value of currency would buy for an
American home In the United States.
The simplicity of the native currency
system goes hand in hand with the
frugality and the wise economies OF
these quaint, active little people.

Gpitapb to a Soldier

And now the rain beats down upon his grave;
The wild beasts snar and sniff above the mound;
Aoft the vulture circles round and round;
Deep in the bushes turks the human knave.
Twas such place this, and such land
We laid him whom the morn proclaimed her pride,
soldier battle-scarred and brave and grand,
Who ere the day had wheeled, sank low and died.
Rest to his SOUL He wrought the best he could,
And doing thus had made him truly good
Peace to his bones He peaceful man,
Though every battle found him in the van
In midst of evil yet from evil free
Let him who reads pray thus he too, may be.

Economic Side of the Tolls Issue.
From the New York Tribune.
Colonel George w. Cocktails has done
a public service in calling the atten-
ton of the Senate and the country to
the economic side of the Panama
Canal tolls issue Even independently
of our obligation to carry out the in
tentions of the trainers and signers Of
the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, we ought
to exercise some practical business
sense in opera ting the canal We shall
have spent about 100000 900 on the
enterprise before we get through The
interest charges on the part of that
sum which has been funded to date
have been saddled on the Treasury
that is to say, on the taXpayers-and
the present interest charges will be
nearly doubled II the government
issues enough canal bonds to extin-
guish the temporary, non-interest
bearing advance loans made to the
canal from current treasury balances.
Why should the taxpayers be ex-
pected to go on meeting that interest
charge, or any large part of it indefin-
ltely? AS Colonel Goethals urges, tolls
should be regulated so as to pay out
standing floating Indebtedness. fixed
charges and operating expenses. The

asked to go down into his pocket tC

nation.
Colonel Goethals is of the opinion
! that renting tolls on the coastwist
shipping of the United States will not
result in cheaper freight rates between
Atlantic and Pacific ports. What the
canal administration would lose the

a weight of two pounds to the height
of one foot, and it does this from 70
to 40 times every minute.
Acute heart strain was difficult to
produce in a young, well~nourished
and healthy adult. but 1t was very
easy to produce If the heart muscle
was anaemic or poisoned, or was the
seat of degeneratiVe disease.

the hearts work by 22S foot pounds

A Wonder Machine.

From the American Machinist.
Progress in the art Of cutting
metals has been a slow advance with
occasional sudden, pronounced jumps,
followed by the same slow advance.
One such jump came in 1900, with the
announcement of the development of
high-speed steel
Another jump has just occurred.
a Cincinnati milling machine COM
pany has developed system of mill
ing that permits of cutter feeds and
speeds some eight to twelve times
higher than those in ordinary prac-
tise. Test cuts have been made in
steel o. carbon, % manganese, at a
peripheral cutting speed of 800 feet
per minute. Other cuts in the same
material have been made at a feed
of t12 in. q 1-3 ft) per minute. The
feature of the system is the supply
and control of the lubricant, which
is delivered in some ten times greater
quantity than is ordinarily used. The
cutter is in a flowing stream-hence
stream fabrication" Experts in ma
chine shop practise who have seen
these tests have unhesitatingly said
that they foreshadow a tremendous
advance in milling practise.

THRESHuNG IN ROLETTE.
Wheat Crop Turning Out an Averag
of q to Ia Bushels

oil B to IA Bushels.
Rolette, N. D., Aug. S.-The first
threshing in the state is being done
in the vicinity of Edgland and near
here and the crop, while a disap-
pointment from the straw, which
would indicate bumper crop, is
fairly good.
Wheat is running from Q to 12
bushels, barley 80 to 45 and oats 3S
to So. In some localities wheat is
running 16 bushels but generally
speaking the crop will not average
more than 10 bushels.
The quality Is generally good, es-
pecially oats and barley. although
wheat unquestionably suffered from
the hot weather, as the shrunken
kernels indicate.
Farmers are employing every man
who applies and there is a demand
for good labor. The class of men
who are coming in is not up to the
standard of other years, many of them
refusing work. and there appears to
be an element OF wanderers and ad-
venturers among the transients not
at all welcome.
In another week threshing will be
general in many parts of this section
Of the state. The grain is being rap
idly harvested and farmers are anx-
ious to get the threshing done early
and at their plowing.
Everything indicates that there will
be large amount Of fall plowing
done this year.

THE ALLIANCE OF SERVICE.

Europe is to be drenched in blood
and stripped to penury by alliances for
war, says the Minneapolis journal.
The mission of the world service is
left to neutrals and to sea powers
great enough to hold the ocean in
violable by war. Europe must be fed
and clothed The markets that keep
the world going must be connected.
The worlds supply of soil products
must continue to pass from where 1t is
abundant to where it is scarce. The
worlds factory output must pass from
where it is made to where it is needed.
International trade cannot stop while
Europeans cut one another's throats.
Shipping that has piled among conti-
nents cannot stop. The supply of in
dustrial means Of civilization to coun-
tries still absorbed in natural produc-
ton must continue
What Europe cannot do in war.
America must take its part in. The
burden of supply Of food, clothing and
peaceful manufactures to Europe, to
South America, to Asia, is heavier up
on us while peaceful industry and
trade are paralyzed there. The neces-
sarv carriage Of it on the ocean
tracks between nations will be shored
between the United States and what
ever maritime power Of war can hold
the sea open to the peaceful passage
Of its ships.

Had Great Britain achieved the hope
of peace for itself, it would have come
to the Anglo-saxon world. perhaps
with the aid OF Italy in industry and
transport In the last world war, the

service to smaller need.
The world of greater need now can
hope for no quicker solution than an
other Trafalgar, which would open
the choked ocean to the rivers Of

way the powers Of war would serve
the needs of peace, whatever belliger-
