Burro Saw the Point.

One who knows says that some peo-
pie claim that animals can't reason.
but If they were around burros awhile
like he was when he ran burro train
up in Colorado they'd change their
minds.
One of the hurros fell down in
crossing a stream and he was loaded
with sugar and Ii took about fifteen
minutes 10 get him on his feet and his
load didn't weigh more than half as
much when they started out again.
For months afterward that critter
always eontrived TO fall down when
crossing a stream of water.
II didn't tighten his load any. for the
driver never trusted him with sugar
any more, but he still had hopes until
they happened to load him with
.sponges one day.
That cured him. Los Angeles

Real winners in life never show the
white feather. They are like the drum
mer boy in our Civil war. who. when
his regiment was being moved down
still kept pushing ahead, beating an
advance. When ordered to beat a re-
treat, the boy replied that he had
never learned hQ&-he had only been
taught to beat an advance.
The finest type of manhood Is never
overwhelmed or entirely dismayed no
matter what comes. If man of this
kind loses property, if his ambition is
thwarted and his plans demolished his
spirit remains undaunted, his courage
his resistance and his self-confidence
are undminished, and he can start
again Many man has been made by
his failures, because he used them as
a stepping stone for his advance.
Failure is the final test of persist
ence and ap iron will; it either
cruShes a life or sOlidifies it.-OrisOn

ANCIENT AND MODERN LIGHT
Users of Electricity Today Read With
Smile of the Link Boy" of
Old England.

A couple of centuries ago permanent
street lights In the large cities of the
world were almost unknown. In old
England link boys" carrying torches
were hired by gentlemen to light the
way for them when they went out in
the evening In London. When lamp
posts We're placed In the city streets
the link boys occupation was gone.
With progress of time lanterns light
ed by candles or by oil were succeeded
by gas or by electric lights. Every
city of the civilized world normally
has its principal streets lighted at
night. and the link boy today is as SUI
perluous as the sedan chair.
In n similar way the famous caves
Of the world. such as the Mammoth
cave of Kentucky and Luray cavern
in Virginia We're formerly lighted by
candles carried by guides who con-
1ucted travellers. But today practical

CONDEMN HIGH PRICED
STOCK FOODS
Prominent Hog Rraiser Says Prices
Charged Are Unwarranted-
Makes His Own Hog
Food With Better
Results

That he is al Through paying
fancy prices for stock foods and
hog remedies and that he is rails
ing some of the best hogs ever
placed on the market" was the
statement made recently by E. H.
Beckstead, well-known hog raiser
and authority on live stock.
Mr.. Beckstead's hogs are the en-
vyof his neighbors, and have top
ped the market" for several years
in Iowa He states that for years
he bought high-priced hog foods
and hog remedies, but he is all
through paying extravagant prices
for what he can make himself. He
states that what the hogs need
are minerals, and tells the secret
of his wonderful success by ex-
planning that he takes about five
pounds of ordinary mineraline
(Which is pure concentrated min
erals and cost only a couple of
dollars) and mixes same with
enough bran or filler to make
hundred pounds. All hogs, and
especially brood sows require min
erals as they keep them free from
worms and in the pink of condi-
tion, and are essential to the hogs
growth and a well balanced ration.
This inexpensive mixture placed
in a sheltered box where the hogs
can get at it as they need it, will
produce far better results than any
high-priced so-called stock foods.
Send two dolalrs to the Miner
aline Chemical Co., 1888 North
Wells ST., Chicago, H., and they
will forward you by prepaid par
eel post, enough mineraline to
make a full hundred pounds.
