of the North Dakota council of de-

The state council asks the rail
director to require all freight trains
to carry a passenger coach for the
accommodation Of harvest workers,
at fare of one cent a mile.
Heretofore, the bulk of the harvest
workers have come to the harvest
fields of the northwest by beating
their way on freight trains, hence
freight cars have come to be known
as "sde door PulImans," in the par

ONLY HUMAN BEINGS CRUEL
Proud Man the Sole Living Creature
Capable Of Deliberately lnfIicting
Suffering on Others.

A cruel person is one who exults in
the pain, mental or bodily, suffered by
another. Cruelty has It's basis in anger
(and thus is related to the combative
instinct), though there is cold-blood-
ed form of cruelty which may be en-
5oyed without any obtrusive feeling of
anger, Henry Campbell writes In the
Lancet, London.
Cruelty, implying as it does self
consciousness-the ability to realize
the feelings of others-is essentially a
human attribute. Children who i'm
pale frogs and eviscerate flies cannot
be said to be cruel, for they know not
what they do. Nor are the lower ami
mails cruel. seeing that they are wholly
unconscious of the sufferings of 9TH
ers- Thus the charge of cruelty against
the carnivora is unjust. These animals
generally destroy their victims out
right and In the rare cases (e. G., cat
and mouse) where they prolong the
suffering they have no knowledge of
the pain they are causing. When,
therefore, we stigmatize the conduct of
the cruel man as brutal" we wrong
the brutes.
The animal which attacks another,
and in so doing causes pain, merely
responds to blind, unthinking in
stinct; but man, proud man, who looks
before and after, is able to realize and
take pleasure in the pain he deliber-
ately, and by subtle means maybe, sets
out to cause. 1t is clearly absurd to
speak of his conduct as brutal"
Rather should we call 1t devilish, the
devil usually being credited with
goodly share of intelligence. We must
cease to libel the brutes by designat-
ing the basest acts of man as brutal.
As matter of fact, they cannot be
charged with nonmoral conduct, see
ing that thev are devoid of self-con-

Many Make Mistake of Thinking Hap
plness Comes Only From Material
or Outward Conditions.

Why should you care to be pestered
with large bank account or distressed
by a house full Of servants? asks the
Albuquerque Evening Herald, which
adds: Adam and Eve had neither of
these and they called their place of
abode Paradise. Few people have
learned the secret of living well. Too
many think 1t depends almost wholly
on the condition of the pocketbook.
This Is most certainly mistake. Hap
piness is not born of material or out
ward conditions. it is largely the re-
suit of purely mental process.
Amid the duller threads of duty it
is well to weave one bright strand
of desires-it Is well to mix a little
sunshine with your daily food. You
can soften the sound of cab and car
in the stony street by calling to men,

1t Is sweeter to your soul-if you have
one-than is the railroad that you own
yourself.
Take day Off and go out to some
cemetery where you may reflect on
the brevity of life and the INSULT
cheney of things pertaining to the pock-
ethook. 1t is better that you go be-
fore 1t comes your turn to ride out
there In the big plumed car that never
hauls its load back again. Don't wait
until you own your private automobile,
but go while you are able to walk and
to think. From the dead you may
learn much of life. Scan all the vir-
tues inscribed upon all the healstones

IDEAS CURIOUS AND POETIC
Remarkable Beliefs That Have Been
Firmly lngrained Into the Chill
dreh of Siam.

Mr.. Ernest Young, who went to Siam
to organize the educational system,
related at London recently some Gu
rious beliefs held by the children there.
He explained that he had experienced
considerable difficulty in teaching them
the rudiments Of science, They be-
lieyed that the earth was fat because
the priest had told them so. 1t was
also the impression of these children
that big crab went down into the
sea and made the tide flow, and when
the crab came up for fresh air the
tide ebbed. When the gods BECAME
angry rolling thunder was heard, and
when the angels got sporty and struck
fire out of bricks, summer lightning
flashes were seen. When many angels
got into the bath at the same time
water ran over the side and 1t rained.
Directly Mr.. Young entered school
the children Frustrated themselves be-
fore him, and the only way they could
be induced to abandon this practice
was to tell them that English children
did not do that. They would do any
thing English children were said to
do. They were awful liars, but when
told that the English boy was truthful
they gave up the habit.

Many persons who become hypersen-

Some of the greatest apostles of ST.
