Make Your Mind Your kIondikc.

Every man has rich mine of
precious ores if he wants to work it.
The other day the news went out that
great oil fields had been discovered
In Klondike. the land famous for gold.
The papers say men are rushing to
stake claims as they did in the palmy
days of the gold craze, and there will
be many who will part with all they
have and make their way to what
promises to be quick fortune. In
the last rush the way to Dawson City

FATHER OF MODERN SPINNING
Invention Of Samuel crompton, Ens-
Iishman, Of Immense Importancs
to the Western World.

At one time muslins were imported
from India for the reason that English
spinners were unable to produce yarn
fine enough for the manufacture Of
such delicate fabrics.
The invention of Arkwright, by
which spinning with rollers was used,
and Hargreaves, with his spinning
jenny, led the way for Croinpton to
combine both of those inventions in
his mule, thereby enabling spinners
to draw out long threads in large
numbers to more tenuity than had
ever been done by the East Indians.
This invention enabled Lancashire
to assume the first place as Gotten
spinner to the world. Samuel Cromp-
ton was born December 3, 1853. at Fir
wood. He came of the farming class
and had rather good educetions On
the death of his father his mother
carried on the farm and set Samuel
to spinning at home. Five years after
his majority he completed his mule.
"his mind during that time being in
continual endeavor to realize more
perfect principle of spinning"
This he did at the expense of every
shilling he had and he gave his in
vention to the world. but in such a
way that he gained no credit. Years
afterward his statue was erected in
Bolton.-Chicago Journal.

EYES GROW KEENER in DARK
Why the Sight Then Is More Sensitive
Than in the Light, Explained
by Scientists.

On entering dark room after a
stay in the outside daylight the eye at
once begins to increase In sensitivity.
At first this increase appears to be
slow, but after five minutes the in
crease is quite rapid, the eye acquiring
sensitivity several hundred times its
initial value, says a writer In the
Journal of General Physiology.
After 80 minutes sojourn in the
dark the sensitivity still Increases, but
more slowly than before, and after 40
minutes or an hour the maximum SEN
sitivity is reached. The final sensitiv-
ity varies slightly with different peo-
pie, but in fully adapted condition the
eye is easily 5000 or 10000 times more
sensitive than it was at the beginning.
These facts are obtained from a
study of the sensitiveness of the eye
In the dark made by Selig Hecht o.:
Creighton university, Omaha. Mr..
Hecht's study goes to show that the
increased sensitiveness is due to re-
versible photo-chemical reaction with
in the retina, involving photosensitive
substance and its two products Of de-
composition.

WHY:

A big stockman has said that you
cannot do as much work with mean
horse as you can with one that IL

time to milk an excitable kicking COW
than 1t does to milk one that is quiet
and gentle. A mean temper, he claims
In most cases is the result Of improper
handling. And the habits farm ami
mails have are generally the result of
their training. Patience and gentle
ness are the prime requisites to the
proper training Of farm animals.
If It pays in time and trouble to
give the young animals the right care,
how much more essential is it to use
patience, tact and gentleness in the
training and care of children. Many
a boy and girl has gone to the bad,

those who had the care of them did

face of what seems to be mean, ugly
boy or girl, may be a poor, lonely
heart that is breaking for a sympa-

a chance to be friend to a friend.
That is why folks should always wear
a smile. a real genuine heart smile.
Then they never miss giving cheer and

DOG HATERs "cALLED DOWN"
Writer In New York Newspaper says
Some Harsh Things About Enc
mics Of the Canine Race.

A story calculated to make dog
haters grit their teeth finds its way
into print. remarks the New York
Tribune. An East side collie awak-
ened his master, told him things were
not as they should be, and then Sc
cured prompt turning In of fire
alarm, which saved plany lives.
AT rare intervals case of rabies
develops. With this as basis the
dog baters have secured code whose
severity Is such that once in a while
it naturally breaks down some dogs
nervous system. Leashed and wear
ing mask or jaw straps, mans best
friend is denied normal life If, his
patience exhausted and his temper
frayed he bites anything, no matter
whether by accident or with ample
justification, he is thrown into Jail
without trial. Not satisfied with
this, there is constant outcry for
a practical extermination of the spe-
e'es, with only enough left to pro-
vide raw material for vivisectionists.
Yet if a score were kept showing
in one column the number of human
lives mans devoted servitor has saved
and in another the number in any
wise lost through him, the dispropor-
tion in favor of the dog would be
great. A dogless civilization would
be one wherein life insurance rates
would be raised.
The psychology of the dog hater has
never been satisfactorily explained.
He exfsts-that is all we know about
him. He can scarcely be said to take
pleasure in his malignancy, for he
is gloomy and somber, yet he stub
bornly clings to his frenzy, putting in
time inventing ca1umnies which one
look into dogs honest and loyal eyes
sufficiently refute.

why Loasers Should Be Banned.

Loafers used to hang out in livery
stables in the days when The horse
was king; now the tribe of sun
dodgers is inclined to transfer its love
and affection to the garage observes
writer in the current issue of Ameri-
can Motorist. Especially is this true
of the small town or suburban estab-
lishment. The man who knows the
first elements of successful business
management will promptly forbid this
from the very start. He need not
waste any politeness in impressing
upon the do-nothings that it is their
absence only which is desired. All OF
this was laconically recognized and
guarded against by a sign seen in all
up-to-date garage on the road to the
White mountains. The sign read: "If
you have nothing to do, don't come
here to do it."

SS 1926 square
miles is larger
than the combined New Eng
land states, except Maine, with
New Jersey thrown in for good
measure. Its name m ans
"Penn's Woodland" and was SO
named by King Charles II, who
granted this territory to the
Quaker, William Penn, and
named it in commemoration of
Penn's father, who had been a
distinguished admiral and on
terms of peculiar friendship and
intimacy with the royal family.
This grant was made in lieu of
f16,0O0, which the king owed Ad-
miral Penn. On this basis it
originally cost about 81 square
mile.
Pennsylvania has assumed
such an important place among
the states that it is often called
the Keystone state. This term
was probably derived originally
because her name was carved
on the keystone of the bridge
over Rock creek, between Wash
ington and Georgetown. Later on
it was applied on account Of the
great Importance of the state iii
national elections. Its delega-
ton to congress totals 38, sec
ond only in size to that from
New York, and Pennsylvania
accordingly has 3S presidential
electors.
William Penn first came over
to America in 1852. The follow
ing year he laid out the city of
Philadelphia, or ''BrOtherly :
Love-" which was named after
biblical city in Asia Minor. AS
I. Pennsylvania was the only coll d
ony without a seacoast, Penn
obtained from the duke of York
the control of Delaware, and un-
til the Revolution these two
provinces were under the same
proprietary government. Quar-
rels with Maryland over bound
aries caused a formal survey
to be made by two surveyors,
Mason and Dixon, and it was
this which became famous DUR
ing the Civil war as the Mason
and Dixon line, the dividing
mark between the slave and the
free states.
