Finally, the little wood burning
steamer slowly reached the native
village without the expected whistle.
And this is why she was so tardy
and nearly useless. Every time she
got up good pressure of steam to do
her work the native hands on board
would pull or the whistle cord and
hold 1t. When the boat reached a
collection Of huts the same thing was
done. The noise Of the whistle was
what interested the natives; the prog

In fact, there was little progress.
Built to make some seven miles an
hour and get up the river and back
cheney was so lessened that she drop

took matters in hand and plugged the
whistle could he utilize the force and
efficiency of his engine.
1t Is Just like this in most cases of
ineffieiency N men. In various ways
they waste or blow off the power
which should and can be used to make
progress. Not all are to blame; they
have never been taught the truth
about the human machine, how to
plug the whistle and the fa& that the

This is only one of a dozen or more

1t could not possibly do Omniscience
Is not an attribute of legislatures. An
ounce of experience Is worth "a ton OF

So. In passing the experimental

tails. The time has come, when, In
the light of actual experience, the
readjustment ought to be made; and
promptly there goes up a voice OF
opposition.
But the opposition will not sue,
coed. The parcel post has made
good despite its handicaps; the coun'
try wants more of it, and better. and
congress will not get in the way.
And when the turn Of events at
Washington porves this prediction
true. it will be found that the Grange
