 "Can any of the Cornerites favor mo with a copy of the deaf and dumb alpha bet or letters? I have friend who is en- tirely deaf, and could converse with her much more easily if I knew the deaf and dumb alphabet. MRS. U. A.
 I trust you may be able to get the alpha bet through the Corner, but why do you not try to aid your friend to practice lip read- ing? That would open the door of commu- nication for her to many besides yourself.

 Would Adopt a Baby.
 "I am writing to your for help and ad- vice from the Cornerites. I have adver- tised but have not been successful We want to adopt baby boy two weeks old or younger healthy and well born. Pos sbly some unfortunate mother would part with her babe. We are in position to give the baby the best of care and an edu- cation and all that can be desired in a good Christian home. My daily prayer has been that I might find baby on my door step. and you can rest assured we would have felt grateful to God for such a find. How my heart aches for the touch of baby hands and the sound of baby's voice! l have read often of your help for others and am sure you can help me. CHnDLEss."
 Such a plea as this must surely be an- swered promptly. and hope the appear ance of this letter here may lead to your securing the child you want. There ought to be no difficulty about 1t unless you insist upon certain qualities. You say in your letter that you wish your adopted child to be well born, and yet you express wish hox laft step. In that case you would know nothing of its antecedents except that it had been deserted. If you are willing to adopt an abandoned infant you should have no trou- ble whatever in finding one at one of the

Yet we all of us yield to it more or less and are moved by what others say of our affairs, even though we have more con fidence in our own judgment thap in theirs. 1 feel as Mrs. V.

And, after all. the circumstances don't need to have so many excuses made on their behalf. Housekeeping Is really . beautiful business. if you look at it in the right way. Personally, I don't know anoth- CT so filled with the possibilities of va riety and of recompense. The change of seasons brings change of duties; there is always the chance for something new hap pening, if 1t is only to alter the position of the furniture. put the curtains into a different room, or try fresh recipe The potentalities of economy have a fascina- tion of their own, particularly in cookery. To me the idea of putting together group of apparently hopeless leftovers into a combination which presents a novel and appetizing dish is quite an excitement in itself, and when I hear of way to make an inexpensive substitute take the place of costly article am enthusiastic.
 The interest prevails all through house. keeping. from the kitchen to the attic. To make over the old tablecloths into nap kins and doilies; to turn the worn sheets so that they will last a while longer; to get rid of dust and dirt and make a room or pantry shining sweet and clean; to take down the curtains and do them up; to move the couch where the chair now Is and put the chair In the window so that one can command the view; to rearrange the books and the pictures-there is always something different to be accomplished to add zest to housekeeping.
 At least that is how I feel about it. Aren't there others of you who have the same attitude of mind? Let me hear from you and compare notes.

MARION HARLAND'S HELPING HAND.

Try to familiarize yourself with general literature so far as you can. both in poetry and prose, and write great deal. with no thought of publication, your object self improvement That Is the only way in which you can sver fit yourself to become a writer whose wotk will be worth while. In this day, when the ranks of writers are crowded high degree of excellence is demanded in order to gain any position of importance. You say you have not fin- ished your work in the grade school. Can not you secure the books needed to con cIude that cour,e and work at them by yourself? That would surely be better than nothing.

 Ldcks Funds 10 Finish Education.
 II wish to enlist the interest of the Cor nerites in a young woman who has per- fectly beautiful voice and had been taking lessons until the protracted illness and death of her mother put such a strain upon their resources that the elder sister upon whom they depended has been unable to furnish the musical instruction without which the younger girl. who is totally blind. cannot hope to help in the expenses. 1 know both young women to be worthy of the profoundest respect and that an un- common talent Is remaining idle and un- developed for want of help. can give the names of several well known men who can give all the tndorsement that will be re- quired. G. E. K" never have known a more generous body of workers than musicians. more eager to help by instruction and encourage ment. I trust most earnestly that there may be a resporse to this appeal. It is in the power of instructors in music to give teaching where they cannot spare money. and already we have had wonderful exam ples of their liberality in the line of les sons. l shall be glad to put any of them in touch with the writer of this letter should they wish to investigate the case of the music student with view to aiding her in developing her voice.

this appearance. During the coming
months the state will deliver the goods

With the arrival of the famous driv-
ers to compete in the classic 800 mile
race for purses agsregating $25,O0O,
to be staged here July 4th, Sioux City
has taken on the appearance of the
central magnet for the speed demons

the contest this week included Mel
Stringer, who will pilot the famous

will drive the Sunbeam car, in which
Harry Grant made such an excellent
showing at Indianapolis; Eddie Rick
enbacher, with his Duesenbery Spc.
Gals, and Gil Anderson. of the Stutz
team. who will appear with Barney
Oldfeld in the big competition.
These men are already pitching
their camps at the Speedway and will
be out on the course for trials early
next week Speed tests given the two
the facts that the experts will be able
at a speed of 81 miles an hour. while
the full limits of the machines can be
forced on the straigtaway, attaining
any speed, even greater than 100 miles
an hour. Thousands OF gallons of
boiling oil have been poured Oh the
surface. Two tcn-ton steam rollers
also were used on the surface all
week, making the track veritably
macadam.

That Leslie NJ. Shaw, former gov

Cali, in the vicinity of which place,
we understand, he intends to spend
his old age. lie said that the Ameri-
can people have been fairly success
ful in two things. business and base
ball. But business development re-
Gently has been bit slow. Then he
added sarcastically:
"Baseball will follow in the same
way when the rules of the game are
made by a committee of men who new

uous exercise in baseball and who in
sist that at the end of each game the
scores must be exactly equal. | know

pointed for revising the rules of bust
ness. | dined at the home of one OF
them when knew that the dishes and
the silver were under chattel mort
gage; and | was informed that the
other could not buy his groceries on
credit. These men are now revising
our rules of business"
Mr. Shaws reference to the revis,
ing of business by men who have not
been able to make a success of their
own business is timely and to the
point. Congress is full of unsuccess-
full men, but they know exactly how
other men ought to make business
successful. He advised his hearers
not to so too fast. but to let business
men occasionally catch their breaths.
He warned all that we could not crush
out one class and expect the others to
continue prosperous. To crush the
railroads would mean more than hard
ship for the railroads. When we
write Soak En-" over the temple Of
justice we may all expect to get part
OF the soaking in due time. lie said
that nature had sometimes forgotten
to be progressive. She has kept the
same law of gravitatiOn for SO long
that she is entitled to be called stand
rattcr. But some men are different
from nature. He added:
IF the law of gravitatlon was an
enactment of the legislature it would
have been amended long ago. Think
of the evils of the law of gravitation.
Think Of the damage when dams break
and rocks fall. Oh! If nature was on

Gov. Shaw quoted Mr.. Dooleys re-
cent statement. The modern states

heartiest laughs OF the evening when
he added:

parties had left for South America"
Calling Colonel Roosevelt one of our
political parties is a bit of rather orig
inal and striking speech. We believe

in large herds and around the same
buildings, and push them in the way
of feed CASUALLY CORN to the limit.
They are anxious to get the best
breed and the best families in the
breed Breeders become enthusiastic.
They attend the state fairs, and if
some particular animal of a particular
family or strain carries away the
prizes, as Chief Tecumseh Cd did some
fifteen years ago, and as many other
heroes of the hog yard have done
since then, every farmer wants to buy
a hog of that prize winning breed. The
family of that breed becomes fashion
able. The next year, if that strain in
still prominent, If the original sire
was prepotent and could transmit his
prepotency to his progeny. farmers
conclude that nothing but that family,
whatever the breed, will do. Every
breeder has been doing the same thing
and the result is an amount of in
breeding of which farmers are not
aware, unles sthey extend their pedi-
grees and see how many times the ami
