Pride of the

Pride OF japanese.
The Japs are a jolly people and fond
Of a joke, and they are generous and
trustful to a marked degree. They also
have a strong sense Of pride. and trav-
elers relate a peculiar instance Of this
trait. II a traveller is annoyed by be-
ing followed by a crowd-which, how
ever, is always quiet and respectful
he can cause it to melt away like snow
fakes on a hot stove by simply hating
and holding out a coin. The Japs feel
hurt at being taken for mendicants.
Fancy what the result would be If a
traveller adopted this expedient in the
fee taking cities Of Europe. He would
be almost torn to pieces by the crowd
trying to get the coin.-St. Louis Globe

What Would You Dot

What will you do when an obligtng
but awkward young nan drops a glass
Of sorbet on the front panel Of your
best frock. Dr. a misguided acquaintance
comes to an afternoon function in even
ing dress. or when one of your guests
makes scathing remarks about a GER
tain religion Of which you know an
other one Of your guests is a strict adj
herent, or when q friend breaks a high
ly priced vase or topples over the light
ed dinner candles on your most expen-
sive damask?
To be sure. every woman who makes
a pretense at good manners knows In
theory what to do on these and SINH
larry trying occasions, but If you want
to be sure to be able to meet the emer-
gency when 1t comes sit down right
now and make up your mind what you
would do to lessen the embarrassment
Of the offender and to minimize the
general d%isquieting results.
There is a rule of hospitality that de-
mands loyalty on the part Of the host
ess to any guest. She may regret hav-
ing extended hospitality to this guest.
but 80 long as the relation of guest and
hostess exists the greatest loyalty and
courtesy must be preserved. So when
one Of your guests makes a great blum
der swallow your amazement and your
pride and make the best Of it.
We have heard the story Of the tact
full Washington hostess whose guest
broke a priceless wineglass at dinner.

exclamation OF surprise. although her

BUT STILL REFUSE TO DIP
A Few, But Very Few, Grant County
Farmers Oppose Installation
Of vats. ...

1--WE have a real live interest in
Grant county in canning OF vegetables
and fruit for home use" said w. C..
Vickry, county agricultural agent
six months ago there was scarcely
a home Gamer TO be found. We have
one merchant here in Sheridan who
has ordered and delivered TO farmers
about fourteen Of these Gamers up to
date. He is selling the Williams can
ner The people of Grant county are
determined to have more to eat, and
also more home raised feed for stock
! believe from what / get from
farmers over the county that there
is so per cent increase in potatoes
for home use, and ! am sure that
there will be sorghum enough for the
heme If nothing happens to the crop.
While this is true and there is a
slight reduction in the cotton acre
age, the crop is being worked better
than usual, and we hope to make a
thoroughly good yield from that crop.
In his last report to the Extension
Division of the University Of Arkan-
sas, Mr.. Vickry said that the farmers
OF Grant county are fighting the fever
Texas tick as they never did before.
Several cattle, he says, died recently,
and reports are coming in almost
daily of deaths from cattle tick fever
in various sections Of the county and
that farmers are using the rumors to
influence others to take hold of the
movement through a systematic or
ganization. I'VE organized recently
farmers club at Erin, which,
through its committee, has gone to
work to locate a place to build a dip
ping vat for their cattle Some farm
ers who have lost stock from the
Texas fever tick oppose the installa-
ton of the dipping vat.

When the selected cotton lie gin

T, Heigesen of North Dakota contrib
uted the following anecdote:
One day Jones was rambling along
the boulevard, when he was rallied by
his friend Smith. While talking about
war, crops and mosquitoes, Jones no.
ticed that Smith continually rubbed
the palm of his hand.
What in the world is the matter
with your hand?" he finally demanded.
"You have been rubbing and scratch.
ing 1t ever since we stopped here"
THE palm itches like blazes," an
swered Jones. They say that it is
a sure sign that you are about to get
some money" ...
UNI" thoughtfully returned Smith,
as a great light suddenly dawned upon
him. Here is where you get wise to
the fact that there is nothing in signs.
