Pavino Calls In Russia.

Town life in Russia is as different
as can be from life in the country dis
trictS. One curious. custom is the
after dinner call. People call on their
friends after dinner at night or even
after the theuter, paying calls at mid
night being quite the thing to do. The
Russian dinner always begins with a
sideboard course of cold meats, hors
d'oeuvres, etc.--that is to say, the
dishes are laid out on the sideboard
and the guests help themselves be-
fore sitting down to partake Of the
regular meal. 1t is from this custom
that we derive the term service la

Uncomfortable,

The habit of never being whipped, of
always keeping up the fght-that is
the quality of the great leader. The
man who never admits defeat is the
man the world has to take into ac-
count. Time and again the foes he is
fighting may think they have him
down. But before they know it he is
on his feet sounding the advance. Such
a man molds events. He helps create
the new heavens and the new earth of
the prophets vision. A mighty force Of
the universe is the unconquerable soul!

some boys near his home. The lad at

ing the wound to bleed profusely. His
companions hastily bound up the cut
with handkerchiefs and hurried to the

the boy who was suffering from the
shock and loss of blood to his home.
Carelessness Causes Loss of Barn.
Failure securely to hang up lantern
after milking had been finished resulted
in the big barn on the Roy Harris farm
in Middlesex Center being destroyed by
fire late New Years day. Although
located close to the farmhouse, neigh
bors assisted Mr.. Harris and mis- hired
hands to save the main building, being
aided materially by the presence of the
snow on the roofs. The loss Ia estimat-
ed at about 81, 900 and is partially COW
cred by insurance There were ten
head OF cattle in the barn and number
of horses and they were rescued, two
pigs and some hens in the basement be-
ing the only livestock to burn. Milking
was finished at o'clock and Mr.. Harris
hung up a lantern in the barn. Within
half hour the barn was all ablaze and
it is presumed that the lantern fell off
tie peg and exploded.
Burlington Druggists Object to Tax.
A petition, protesting against the
continuation of the war tax upon tooth
paste and tooth powder, is being circu-
lated by druggists of Burlington for
p'asentation to the congressional COM
mittee in charge of this matter. The
petition points out that with many ills
resulting from poor teeth and with the
compulsory examination of the teeth of
school children, tooth paste and tooth
pow der may almost be classed as neces-
sites, and urges the injustice of such a
levy. while many Injuries are untaxed 1t
is stated that the petition has received
many signatures, both in Burlington
a,o in theothe cities where it is being
circulated.

IRREsPoNsIBLE REPORTS.

Our people long since learned to
take with lots of salt stories of Eng
land that came from Berlin, and those
of Germany that came from London.
Around here they are beginning to
find out that even salt will not sancti-
fly the political reports of Iowa that
come out of Des Moines. The stud
led efforts to condemn Mr.. Harding
at the Capital City commence to
prove the irresponsibility of the re-
ports, and items like the following
never find lodgnient in the Des Moines
newspapers. -" r"r '-'--'s -7' -'.5-.'
Sioux City, Iowa, June q 1915.
Hon. .. N. Gadd, Des Moines, Iowa.
Dear Sir:-I am taking the liberty
to address you ON behalf of William
L. Harding, candidate for governor.
NY reason is far more personal than
political. Mr.. Harding and | are close
friends, and it was slow developing
friendship, based on mutual esteem.
/ passed through some experiences
with him that taught me his worth as
man and as a citizen; thus our
friendship.
! have become impatient with the
labored attempts on the part of GER
tain persons to catalogue Mr. Hard
ing, giving him place with all that is
reactionary and even undesirable in
the social and political life of Iowa.
My admiration for him grows owing
to the fact that he refuses to be label
ed; refuses to loan himself to fac
lions, refuses to promise the people
that he will bring in the kingdom of
absolute perfection in Iowa affairs at
stroke. He can't and he knows it;
certain others know it, but give the
impression that they can. 500
Frankly and sincerely, have never
found Bill Harding afraid of opinion,
whether of the conservative or the
liberal. He has a nina OF his own
and uses il. | have been with him
in refor improvements and happen to
know that he is not afraid of interests
that arrogate to themselves privi-
leges. have found him clean in life
and wholesome in his relations.
don't think any one can class me
as a political reactionary, for / have
been in half a dozen warm reform
movements, notably the Foulk in
Missouri and the Johnson in Califor-
MIA. But in them all / have found
no man finer in his motives and
broader in his sympathies than Viii
liam Harding And / think | know
men. / live among them and con.
stantly tough their lives in most OF
their social and business relations.
| want to voice my belief in Hard
inf, and | have written you to help
clear the minds of any who may
know him only through the colored
glasses of his personal opponents.

roo MucH RED rAPE.

According to Ralph Bolton, Secre-
tary of the Greater Des Moines Com
mittee, the Soldier boys at Camp
Dodge were victims of too much red
tape, which caused the delay of their
mail, and other inconvenience. At
least that is the implication in let
ter just sent out by Mr.. Bolton. There
was no lack of funds or proffers of as
lsistance, in the matter, but as. recited
lin Mr.. Bottoms letter:
I'VE wish to correct any false opin-
ions that may prevail. Neither the
Chamber of Commerce or the Greater
Des Moines Committee, two CONNER
cial organization that represent all the
commercial interests of Des Moines.
were appealed to by any one in author
lily for the use of trucks. Sunday, July
End, Mr.. H. Fl. Polk, member of the
Greater Des Moines Committee and
| President of the National Security
| League for Des Moines, rendered to
General Allen the use of four trucks
and touring car with drivers. The Of
fer was declined. Monday evening
was reported to the writer, Secretary
of the Greater Des Moines Committee.
that the camp needed trucks to carry
8snl7l. re S6Nuftu luS ONct VI a II uSA
from Charles Hewitt Sons and Com
Fpany and one from Warfield -Pratts How:
ell Company, and rendered the use OF
the trucks to General Allen through
/ Lieutenant NcNider. The use of the
trucks was declined Monday evening
Mr. Polk again offered the use of a
truck to- be furnished by the Schee
Automobile Company.
"On Wednesday morning Mr.. LATE
Young Jr., member of the Greater
Des Moines Committee, offered to send
truck every day to haul mail to
Camp Dodge. The offer was made to
General Allen and declined. Postmast-
| err Huffman offered to create branch
office at Camp Dodge and deliver the
mail there twice daily. The offer was
made to General Allen and declined.
There is not a business firm Ill
Des Moines owning an automobile that
would not have willingly rendered the
use of an automobile to the aid OF
the soldiers at Camp Dodge to carry
hteir mail. There are enough automo'
bile trucks making deliveries several
times a day to have carried the mail
if it had been sesired to have the mail
carried in that manner. All offers
made were declined. Why they We're
declined we are unable to state. Why
requests were not made direct to the
officials in charge of the commercial
organizations that are representative
of the business interests in Des Moin-
es we are unable to state. The only
complaints that were made were made
! to newspaper reporters. When the
complaints appeared in the press and
Representative interests offered their
services they were uniformly declin-
ed"
