Improved Living Conditions.

Perhaps. as the luxury taxes indi-
cate, not far from $s.50.0O0.0O0 have
been spent on indulgence since the
a-mistice; yet there are signs that the
masses are not wasting all their In
creased income. Living conditions for
the laboring man have improved, and
he will never go back to the conditions
of the past. A Cincinnati company In
the iron trade reports tina. there Is q
demand today for IL bathtubs where
there was demand for one ten years
ago. Certainly that is an indication
Of better living conditions and a sign
of progress In the forward march Of
civilization.-World's Work.

KEEP TROUBLES TO YOURSELF
The World, a. a General Thing, Has
Little Use for the Man Ad-
dicted to SeIf.Pity.

The trouble with the man in little
trouble IS that he Is inclined to pity
himself and imagine that he Is the
only man who ever had trouble.
All he can see In the moment Of his
irritation Is his own burden. II seems
not to occur to him that at the very
moment he Is wrestling with his diff
Guilty thousands of people around him
are fighting against far greater odds
and In much greater danger.
Trouble, anyhow, is part of the
game of life. Nobody ever went any
where or did anything worth while
without meeting 1t In one form or an
other. Let others pity you II they
will, but don't waste any time pltying
yourself. The chances are that your
next door neighbor would be tickled
to death II such troubles as you have
were all he had to worry about.--Ex-

Hard Boiled Eggs.

]. Lester Hyman. a farmer near Lo-
gansport. says that on Easter morning
he heard one Of his Black Langshan
hens cackle In the hennery Of his
farm. He hurried to the place, and
there on the floor lay nice brown
egg. 1t was still warm. The man pro
ceeded to the house to fry the egg for
breakfast.
Giving 1t to his wife, who was Mt
the stove frying other eggs, he asked
that this fresh one be cooked for him.
On attempting to crack the egg TO
place the contents In the skillet It was
found to be hard-boiled. Hyman's
hopes Of having u hen that laid hard
boiled eggs were shattered when his
wife remembered that she had just
placed egg shells taken from boiled
eggs In the hennery and that the hard
boiled egg found had undoubtedly been
left among then.-Indlanapolis News.
