Idle Gossip.

What is worth doing at all is
worth doing well, unless you are
going to make a fool of your
self.
A man will sometimes pocket
his pride, but a woman can never
find her pocket.

Life is one continuous hurdle

Many a shallow mind has been
concealed behind a deep voice.
About the only man who can
afford to believe everything he
hears is the man who is stone
deaf.
The consequences are seldom
pleasant when you sit on either
fresh paint or fresh children.
Time is money, yet lots of peo-
pie with plenty of time on their
hands will strike you for a loan.
All things come to him who
waits, but he is generally dead
by the time they reach him.
Spiritualists will tell you we
come back from the dead. At
any rate, many a family skel-
eton has come to life.
The trouble about looking up
to other people is that it en-
courages them to look down on
US.
The earth was created for

is the man.

100000 AUTOS REGISTERED.
First Consignment Of Number Plates
Sent to Owners.

Des Moines, May 4-The number of
automobiles registered in Iowa will pass
the 100000 mark tomorrow. When the
office Of secretary Of state closed Sat
urday night only fifty of the first hum
dred thousand plates were left on hand.
1t is now estimated that the number
of machines which will be registered
in this state in 1915 will pass the $780,
900 mark. The registration applica-
tons continue to pour into the office at
the state house at the rate of 1000 a
day and the office Is more than two
weeks behind in sending out plates. It
has not been possible to put on sufficient
force in the department to keep up with
the rush, the officials say.
In 1914 the number of machines did
nor pass the 100000 mark until late in
August.
According to the state department,
