Do Your own IIustling.

Learn this lesson, my son; then
learn it over and over again. The
world does not owe You living. True
there are those who have gotten no
ton In their heads. that they have q
right to be taken care of by others re-
CARELESS of any eXertion themselves
They will find out in time however
that while they are awaiting for the
procession to come along with feather
bed on which to carry them to fame
and fortune, the hustler has gotten a
long way to the front: while he who
waited for others to boost him along
waited for what never came.

To Build an Reindeer Herds.

An investigat ton of the condition or
the reindeer in Alaska and the intro
luction of new blood into the herds.

ance to the natives of the territory, are
to be undertaken by the biological sur

has been closely identified with the
reindeer industry in Alaska since 1872.
In that year the bureau introduced ii"
animals, which have increased until
they number today approximately loo,-
600. In addition, it is estimated that
the natives have killed 100000 for food
and skins.
Excellent as have been the results so
far, there are great opportunities for
improving the industry. thus develop
ing an important meat supply not only
for Alaska but for other parts OF the
United States A vast region, includ-
ing the base of the Alaska peninsula
and immense areas farther north, Is
adaped to raising these animals. Sew
eral million reindeer could he support
ed on these tracts. according to esti-
mates The introduction OF new breed
ing stock will be one of the immediate
tasks to be undertaken by the federal
authorities.

Buying the Best.

Walt. Mason: The best things are the
cheapest, and shoddy things are punk {;
that mans chronic weepist who
blows himself for junk. Some bargain
lie goes hunting in hens or rubber tires
in celluloid or bunting. in hats or cast
off Tyres. He doesn't ask the merit
of the calico he buys: he doesn't bite
or tear 1t or hold it to his eyes; ii it's
as cheap as bitten he thinks the deal
will pay; and every game he sits In he
plays this sort Of way. His clothes
are always seedy, his shoes are down
at heels, he's looking poor and needy
though he earns many wheels. He
blows in all his wages for things that
do not wear, for birds in cheap tin
cages and wigs that have no hair. The
chairs all go to pieces he purchased ut
the store, depositing his nieces and
aunts upon the floor. His car is always
busting when he would take ride,
and accidents disgusting deface his
snowy hide. His boat is always leak
ing when he would row bit, and corO-
ners are seeking his bones on which
to sit. His dog Is always NANCY, his
cat was built to sQuall, his cow is lean
and rangy, and kicks him through the
wall. He always hunts the cheapest
when he would shopping wend; cheap
prices are the steepest as we know in
the end. My large and shining dollars
in good things invest; in buying cows
or collars, always want the best.

Des Moines Capital: \ convention
strength for n. II. knedall OF Abba
which few OF the political wise ones
have been willing to cOncede him, IS re-
vealed by The Capitals poll OF dele
gates to the republican state cOnven-
ton, to be held in Dies MOines next
Tuesday.
The poll was taken by means OF
ballots mailed directly to each con-
vention delegate. 1t was so arranged
that the delegate could vote with as.
surance that the identity Of individual
votes could not be traced. Three hun
bred and eighty-one ballots were re-
ceived, or considerably more than one
third of the entire convention.
The totals show Mr. Kendall lead.
ing, by a comfortable margin, E. r
Moore of Cedar Rapids, who has been
generally credited with being the ''pole
horse" in the convention battle. II
tends to confirm the recent predictions
that in first choice convention strength
both John f. Deems Of Burlington and
Attorney General H. NJ. Havner, will
be relatively weaker than they were
in the primary.
Follows Primary Vote.
In the contests for the other -four
nominations to be made by the conven
ton, the primary "tirsts" have all the
best of it, In each case, the high man
for lieutenant governor, auditor, attOr
ney general and railroad commissioner
is The man who received the highes,
vote in the primary.
The poll indicates quite strongly tina,
both Haynes for auditor and Woodruff
for railroad commissioner may he nomi
mated upon the first ballot. Both OF
these candidates, in this poll, received
considerably more than half the votes
in their respective contests.
For lieutenant governor and auditor
the candidates are considerably more
punched, and it seems possible that
these contests may still be subject to
preconventiOn manipulation.
If the ratio upon the g0vernOrshiI
indicated by The Capitals poll should
prevail upon the first convention ballot
Mr.. Kendall would receive about 47C
votes, Mr.. Moore about $50, Mr.. Deems
1Oj and Mr. Havner 100.

It isn't the Town.

Don't loaf on the streets and tell
strangers that the town is dead. 1t
is not. The trouble is not that of a
dead town, but of dead energies OF
too many of its people. Show that you
are alive by moving lively, wide awake
by jumping into it, on the alert by I'M
proving your opportunities, and get
ting there because yOu are in the lead
