Ran the Price Up.

William Allen White, the Kansas
editor, told a homestead story at a
Topeka dinner.
Along a hot and dusty Kansas
road" he began, "a homesteader was
pursuing his way toward one of Uncle
Sans free homes in the Cherokee
Strip. His family and furniture were
in a shaky wagon drawn by a pair of
shaky nags.
"'Whar we bound?' a farmer asked
him when he halted to water up.
Bound? Why. bound for a hun'erd
and sixty acres o. COMMENT land in
the Strip" the homesteader answered
enthusiastically.
"Some two or three months passed,
and the homesteader stopped once
more at the farmers to water up, this
time travelling north.
"sWot we done with them 100
acres?' said the farmer.
"sSee them mules?' the homesteader
answered. pointing to the sorry ami

Mule Warnings.

Saturday two ladies went up the
street in st. Joseph. One of them was
a right young lady. The other one
was probably several years older. And
just as they passed the penciler of this
editorial the older lady said to the
younger lady 1T makes your hair
1uffy-you know that" That's all the
penciler heard, just those eight words.
But the remark was full of signifi-
canoe. 1t indicates a state of mind.
1t reveals a mood. 1t chronicles a
craving of lots of people. 1t spoke out
an upper hope that fills the hearts of
many people.
The fluffy stuff.
That's the rage now.
Don't strive for the solid.
Don't strive for that which is sound
and full of substance.
Don't crave the real, the durable,
