Killing Time.

One seldom hears of sensible men
and women burning money, tossing
gold into the river or deliberately eat
ing poison which will shorten their
lives. On the contrary most of our
waking hours are devoted to planning
means by which we may gain those
things which make life enjoyable.
Why then this strange custom of
killing time? At most and hest all of
us have but few years in which to
accomplish that for which we came
into this world. The hours OF childhood,
the day of youth and school and the
deliberate years of old age ali serve
to rob us of time in which to do our
share of the worlds work.
Time in reality is the most precious
thing any of us posses. 1t is that of
which we really have the least in all
the world. All about us is a great
supply of every thing we require
just waiting for our industry and
thrift to make it ours. There is food
to be had in abundance if we but
work for it. Each man may have
home and furnish it as lavishly as
his industry and good taste permits.

intimidates her into doing this. Then
/ the "old man" comes home, finds out
what has taken place and he "hits

This very thing actually happened in
the home of member of The Far
mer's Protective Association. The
picture ordered called for payment of
$3.50, and there was to he Stree"
picture by way of good me lsure. The
good man" was not home when the
delivery man arrived, and the "little
woman" was plumb scared INFO giving
her husbands check for $50 80. Friend
husband promptly ordered payment on
the check stopped, and now the por-
trait company is threatening to sue
him for $1,000. He wants to know
if they can collect it. They can't.
The portrait company may legally de-
mand payment of $3.50 and not a
cent more. Besides, we'll wager that
they won't sue under any circum-
stances.
Furthermore and lastly, the pic
lures themselves resemble the orig
inals about as much as bull frog re-
sembles sparrow. It's nothing more
or less than skin game, folks.-St.

The Picture Enlarging
Racket.

One of the old "strong arm" games
that refuses to die is the picture-en-
larging racket" 1t is worked by
crews of men who systematically
canvass whole communities at a time
representing, we will say, The Graft
ing Portrait Company. These are
real high-powered statesmen, and about
the only way to get rid OF them is to
drive them off with club.
Here is the way their game is work
ed: You sign an order for a picture
enlargement at an agreed price, for
example of $3.50. This covers the
picture only and nothing is said about
the price of the frame. The man
goes on his way and some two or
three months later another nan comes
along to deliver the picture. 1t is in
a fine, big, gilt frame for which they
want as much as for tie picture.
Here is where the rub comes in"
The picture is not much good to
you without the frame, and they
know it. Maybe you object to paying
for the frame. You don't have to
pay for it, understand that. But the
man is past master in the art of
wheedling or bullying, whichever may
seem at the time to be the best meth
cd, and nine times out of ten you take
the COMPOUNDED thing, pay for it and
consider yourself 'stung."
Suppose the good wife is alone
when the man comes. That's just the
way they like to have it. If she does
not happen to have the money, the
man will, by one means Or another,
get check with the husbands name

There is plenty to read, eat, wear and

There is an abundance OF every
thing except time. And yet it is of this
very precious commodity time that
we are the most careless. We fritz
ter it away on trifles. We squander
it with senseless things which do not
even bring US pleasure.
Killing time on the job is ar unfort-
innate practice of lot of people. They
feel that whatever loafing they can
put over on the boss is a clever bit
of muscular or mental thrift. These
folks fail utterly to realize that when
they steal half an hour Of time from
their employer they not only do him
an injury but they treat themselves
far worse.
There is no task in the world which
cannot be done better than you are
doing it. The man or woman who
studies the duties which come to hand
each day not only betters his own cir
cumstances but leaves behind better
method to help those who follow after
him. If this is not true then we should
still be grading wheat, travelling by
stage coach and eating handground
corn.
All employers are not blind to in
dustry and initiative among those
they employ. Those killing time are
always known and sooner or later
are always shaken out of an organiza-
ton while those who make the most
of their opportunities always win in
the long run.

LET FARMERS ALONE

Roundly scoring the Legislative
mania which has turned our heads
and depleted out pocketbooks,' in
message to visitors to the grange
community exhibit recently held at
Snohomish, Wash, Governor Roland
H. Hartley declared that the great
est favor the state can bestow upon
the farmer is to "get off of his back
and leave him free to go about his
business unhampered by an army OF
regulators, investigators, inspectors,
advisers and dictators.
The farmer. Governor Hartley
declared, is no different in his rela,
ton to the state than any other
citizen, since the state is the product
of the cooperative effort Of all cltl-
zens, regardless of vocation or pro-
fession. He deplored any tendency
toward group government" Par
ticipation in governmental affairs is
as much the business of the farmer
as his purely agricultural pursuits

PRACTICAL ANSWER TO COAL
STRIKES

e-Sooner or later periodical coal
controversies will result in one oil
two things, either government con
troll of the mines or the substitution
of other means of heat. Either re-
course will not be profitable for coal
operators or miners.
Chas. A. Monroe, prominent in the
manufactured gas industry, and
leading public utility executives
whose companies produce gas, is
developing an organization to carry
on research work to make gas avail
able as fuel to all industrial users.
Heretofore no one has been able
to spend enough time and money to
develop the proper appliances for the
utilization of gas fuel in industry.
AS the demand for gas is increasing,
the immediate development OF such
appliances becomes an obligation
says Mr.. Monroe.
This is the most practical answer
to the coal strike-use some other
kind of fuel.
