TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
FROM THAT TO THIS.


In the jungle depths that were darkly grim
He skuked he sought his prey,
And the wolf and the cave-bear fought with him.
Who scarcely better than they.
In deep-hid den of rocky glen
Was his home that was void OF cheer,
And over them all Natures scraWi,
And the word that she wrote was rear!
There was never haunt that he did not note
For there he had sought his prize
While Terror clutched at his scrawny throat
The Terror that never dies;
And his skincIad in their cave did walt
His coming with bated breath,
Till they munched bones on the colo, gray stones
While the Thing outside was-Death.
Oh the world whrls on. and the world whirls round
And the caye-man is no more,
And Madam today is Paris-gowned,
Forgotten the skins she wore
Io the waters and earth are his from birth,
And cen with the gods he vles,
For he spurns land that his might has sp2nneo
Look out and look up, for--he flies!
From that unto this, From the man who skulKed
To him who has gained the skies! , ,
From the who gibbered and mouthed and suAeo
To him who with angels vies!
Oh mar, the mite, and man whose sight
Pierces mists CT world aWry,
Be there room for thee DER the heights we see,
For nature is conquered-you fly!

Ten-cent sugar seems to be regarded as an

Webster City E'reeman-J Journal:
When Governor Cox was nominated
for the presidency the republican
press generally had many good things
to say of him aud the general impress
sion was that he was a fairly good
man for the position, honorable, trust
worthy and capable. The Freeman
Journal shared in this view and said
SO. However, the developments of
the past few weeks are leading many
to believe that Cox is a very cheap
politician, a man willing to indulge in
the rankest de-nagogism to secure
support from vicious and ignorant
men.

ACCURACY AND SPEED.

| There is too much of a tendancy prevailing
to learn to do things quickly rather than to do
them we'll This tendency is in evidence in all
businesses and professions, on part of some of
their followers. The newspaper reporter sacri-
fees clarity of composition and accuracy of
statement in an effort to rush things; the cash
her and bookkeeper work with the speed of cleo
trio driven machines in order to complete their
tasks that they may have an extra hour of les-
iure; the businessman hur1ies through his days
work for the same reason. And yet the way to
the highest efficiency commonly lies in first
striving to achieve correctness or accuracy;
gaining speed no faster than is consistent with
faultless work
This general principle is well illustrated in
the case of W. F Oswald, an American, champ
ion typewriter operator of the world. In gain
ing this distinction he typed full hour accu-
frately at the rate of one hundred and forty
three words minute
He says the secret of his success with the ma
chine is to learn the keyboard thoroughly, and
always to type accurately, with the keys cover
ed.
In great host of other things as in type
writing, mastery and distinction are not to be
won save by persistent painstaking 1t is so
with the artist, the musician, the author, the ex-
pert mechanic, and every other skilled calling in
which eminence cannot be achieved save by
perseverance and determination to do nothing
but the best work
1t is always satisfaction to gain priority in
any useful and needful calling. And the ex-
ample set by ". F. Oswald of first learning to
do things perfectly, letting speed wait upon ac-
curacy, is good one for every boy and girl
who aims to be of service in the world
