THE PLACID LIFE

Anger, says California minister
is suicide. Bad temper is a poison
which fills every nook of the circu-
latory system. Avoid them. if you
would live long.
The author of this advice is 1O2
and expects to live to be $50. He
speaks, therefore, with authority, and
his view-which is not a new one
impresses us considerably. !. -,
The problem of life is, however, a
little deeper than this advice would
indicate. Would anybody really care
to live 1O2 years in utter placidity !?
Stevenson tells us of a philosopher
who throughout his mature existence
wore tin shoes to exclude all posi-
bility of infection and refused to
leave the house because outdoors it
was impossible exactly to regulate
the temperature. He lasted, but did
he live?
This advice about refraining from
anger, excitement and so on is only
the recommendation of tin shoes and
a regulated temperature for the
mind. It is highly sensible, but not
altogether alluring. It is comparable
to telling small boy that he will not
die of drowning if he never goes
near the water. : True; but as we'll
drown as smother in feather bed.

Co|ored Man. Patents
New Type Of Motor Wheel
(Topeka Plaindealer.)

A wheel which the inventor claims
will make riding in a motor car as
easy as riding in an aeroplane has
been perfected by Neale Moore Rob-
inson, Kansas City, Kan. His patent
from the United States Bureau of
Patents arrived at his home, 2201
Northt Third street, this week.
The wheel, according to Robinson's s
claims, is a perfection Of the spring
system upon which motor car engi-
neers have worked for years. The
general construction of the invention
is wheel within wheel. Eight
springs will surround the axle of the
car, giving a spring at the axle,
The main feature of the wheel, the
inventor says, are the fact that no
rubber tires are needed. Hitting an
obstacle as large as a brick will not
be noticed by the person sitting in
the car, Robinson says. Robinson
worked the invention out during the
last two years.-Topeka Plaindealer

AND THEY COULDN'T SEE

There was me and pap, and some
more Of the crowd:
Was sittin: around in Jimmersons'
store,
When. Bill Hawkins told a tale he
lowed
Would set the fellers all: in roar.
Says he: when I was out in the
+ West,
Along on the edge Of Ioway,
knowed a Teller there that made
"A hundred dollars in a. half day.
l., "The old Missoo' got on raise
A regular old Missouri flood
An this Teller he sees a chance
In catcl1in' floating logs of wood.
So, he advertised for fifty: men
In the Roarin' City Weekly News
To meet him on the river bank
With skiffs an boats. or with
canoes.
An he hired them fellers to ketch
that wood,
An all that mOrnin' the wood they
fetched,
An the pay he caves where the joke
came in
He gave them half of what they
ketched."
And the fellers laughed at Old Bills
>, yarn,
Laughed and said they thought it
grand
Yet all of them fellers that cackled
/ Was workin' on shares On rented
land!
