HE IS A REPUBLICAN
Asa republican lie is a real progress
ive. He is a republican because, as he
says in his platform, “The republican
party always has been the party of pro
gress.” At the same time, he never has
been afflicted with a political speed craze
that may run amuck and endanger the
financial, commercial and industrial
prosperity of the country.
Samuel A. Cook never has been any
man’s man. He supported Robert M. La
Follette in 190D and 1902. He contrib
uted time, money and personal effort to
the LaFollettc campaigns in those years.
Like thousands of loyal republicans he
was inspired to do this by a desire to
give the new reform leader an opportu
nity to deliver the goods.
\\ hen the time came for him to choose
Arthur Streich, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Julius Streich of Farmington,

The Lord of Little Children
The Lord of Little Children to the sleep
ing mothers spake:
“Lo, the dreaming time is over, ye the
hand of Life must take;’’
And the dawn was in our faces as we
startled up awake,
On Liberty’s great day.
We have heard the babes that called us
from the whirr of wheel and loom,
In a world of sun and meadows crying
for a little room,
Ere their blood ran to the coffers, ere
their labor made their tomb;
And we arise and go. •
We have heard our sister weeping for
the child that must not live,
For the hands that may not tend it, for
the milk she may not give;
We have seen her kneel in anguish and
the bitter blow receive.
And we arise and go.
Over law unblessed, unsanctioned by a
mother’s holy name,
Law that gives the child to bondage and
the woman unto shame,
See the star of justice rising with a
dread, consuming flame!
’Tis bringing in His day.

between blind and unquestioning ser
vice in the personal interests of one
man, whose sincerity many good men
had reason to doubt, and the party of
which he had been a member since at
taining his majority, lie chose his party,
because while not blindly following
party, he felt that the party was larger
than any one man in it.
HIS PLATFORM.-
His political faith is set forth in his
platform, which is a clear, concise, defi
nite statement of principles in which he
believes. In that platform there are no
evasions; there are no specious promises
to perform, impossible feats of political
or governmental magic; there is no ap
peal to passion or prejudice; there is no
attempt to pallitate the offenses of un
lawful or oppressive combination of cap
ital.

Live Spiders Food For Young Wasps.
The .young of some wasps can live
only on live spiders, and the mother
wasp therefore renders the spider
powerless by her sting, after which it
can live a month, and then deposits it
Ln the cocoon where she has laid her
egg. On hatching out the wasp grubs
feed on the bodies of the living spi
ders. Another wasp deposits her egg
in the body of the spider, which is
then buried alive and is fed upon by
the wasp grub.—London Standard.
INDIANS’ PRIDE.
Native Reserve and Conservatism
Keep Them Apart From Whites.
Even among the Five Civilized Tribes
there stiil remain many communities
wholly full blood. These people drift
together, following their own ideas of
life, speaking their own language and
retiring before the whites with the
same strange reserve and pride that
characterized them in their wild state.
Although claiming the name of sev
eral Christian denominations and fol
lowing certain beliefs with devout
ness, their ways of thinking, their dis
like of innovation and their aversion
to work have made them withdraw
to the mountain districts. Whether
this so called reserve comes from pride
or a distrust of the white man or ti
midity or merely a stubborn conserva
tism. it produces the same result, the
backward and nonprogressive Indian.
There is. too. a certain mystic quality
that holds the Indian aloof, says the
Southern Workman—a quality that we
do not understand and with which
there is little sympathy in our every
day life. He is so much of a philos
opher that he looks upon our strenu
ous life,with some contempt, dismiss
ing ur efforts for personal comfort
and material advancement with the
remark that *‘the white man F heap
trouble to himself.” While people call
him lazy because he does not care to
exert himself for those things which
see in important to whites, yet to
some religious ceremonial or some ar
ijstic expression his application is per
sisiept. mul the "patience of an In
dian” has passed into a proverb.
WSaKED like a charm.
She Joined a Card Club In Order to,
Forget Her Work.
An Atchison woman who found the
monotony ot dishwashing, cooking and
laundry work proving too much for
sanity was urged to join a card club.
"It will rake your mind off your
work,” she was told, and so she joined.
In order to attend she had to get up
that morning an hour earlier to get
her work done; a neighbor girl was
hired to stay with the baby, and when,
flustered, nervous and tired, she left
the house fifteen minutes late she was
followed by the screams of her three
children because they couldn’t be
taken along. But she had her mind
taken off her work at the card party.
Of that there is no doubt, for when
she made a misplay her partner, a
perfect lady, walked right over her,
then picked her up aud shook her, and
then chewed on her for fifteen min
utes. She became so frightened that
the little wits she had under her hair
fled, aud she made another misplay
with another partner, and this woman,
also a perfect lady, talked to her in a
way the woman should have been
ashamed to talk to a dog. It was more
than she could endure, and, weeping
like a sprinkling cart, she got up and
went home.
“It did even more than it promised,”
she tolld her husband. “Nothing has
ever happened to me in all my life that
so effectively took my mind off my
work. Why, there were times when I
even forgot I had you and all the chil
dren.”—Atchison Globe.
Athletics and the Unfit.
Those who are unfit should not in
dulge in athletic games is a warning
by Dr. Woods Hutchinson in Outing.
A boy, for instance, is a little weak
after a mild attack of infectious fever,
pneumonia, influenza or tonsilitis, and
his heart is beating faster and more
violently than it should on exertion.
But the team wants him or he wants a
record, or both, and away he goes into
training.
“Suddenly one day the heart can no
longer drive on its overload of blood,
and down goes the runner or oarsman
in an attack of heart failure,” and ath
letics get all the discredit.
The same danger lies when there is
no training, the sport being purely in
formal. it lies also where the girl just
convalescent persists in taking part in
a long anticipated dance. Only that
phase of common sense which is mani
fested in common prudence is neces
sary to avoid such perils.
His Other Name.
The candidate for the place of coach
man had been weighed and was not
wanting, according to bis new mis
tress’ lights. Then the question of his
name, which was Patrick, came up.
The mistress objected to it in her heart,
so she explained that it was her cus
tom always to call her coachman by
his family name. Had he any objec
tions?
“Not the slightest, ma’am.”
“What is your last name, Patrick?**
“Fitzpatrick, ma’am.”
Anchored.
A little chap four years o£ age met
with the misfortune to have his hat
blown into the river. When he reached
home his father said to him:
“It’s a wonder you didn’t blow over
board too.”
“I couldn’t,” was the quick response.
“I was fastened to my feet!”

RATTLESNAKE BITES.
Simple Rules For Treatment if You
Have the Nerve to Use Them.
The treatment of a rattlesnake
wound resolves itself into the appli
cation of a few very simple rules. In
the first a person wounded by a
snake usually does the very thing he
should not do—that is. goes tearing off
at top sjwd for the nearest human
habitation, thereby increasing the cir
culation and disseminating the virus
through thq system more rapidly. The
man should sit calmu down and bind
bis handkerchief around the limb (if
it is a limbi, break off a stout twig
and insert beneath the handkerchief
producing a rude tourniquet, and twist
until the circulation is effectually shut
off.
With a sharp knife make an X in
cision over the, wound, taking care
to penetrate deeper than the fangs
have done. If he lias good teeth and
no canker in his mouth, he may now
suck vigorously upon the wound. It
does no good to suck the original
wound It is quite difficult to get any
virus back through an opening not
greater in caliber than a fine needle
If all this is done without delay rh
chances are that the patient will suf
ter no greater inconvenience from his
experience. If he chances to have
handy a stick of silver nitrate he can
cauterize the wound thoroughly. Fail
ing that, a brand from tbe fire will
serve. After a time be may release
his tourniquet somewhat and permit
a portion of the retained blood to en
ter the circulation. The system is ca
pable of raking care of a great deal of
poison If it is allowed to flow into the
blood gradually.—Outing.
SET HIM THINKING.
The Reason His Wife Gave For Dis
liking Postponements.
Just when Mrs. Ackroyd had finished
packing her trunks and after William
Ackroyd had bought railway tickets
for her and their two daughters little
Bessie came down with a severe case
of whooping cough. The doctor posi
tively refused to let the child start on
a long journey, and even if he had
thought it safe for the little one to
leave home he assured Mrs. Ackroyd
that she wmuld not be permitted to
take the patient into a hotel anywhere.
“Isn’t it a shame?” the distressed
lady wailed. “Here we are with every
thing in our trunks, and my husband
has even bought our berths lu the
sleeper.”
“It is unfortunate, but I don’t know
what you can do except sit down and
wait four or five days. It may be safe
then for you to start away.”
When her husband got home that
evening Ms. Ackroyd was weeping.
“Don’t take it so hard, dear,” he said.
“It might be a good deal worse. Our
little one is likely to get along all
right. The doctor says the case isn’t
an unusually severe one. and when I
telephoned him this afternoon he said
he thought it might be safe for you to
start away by the end of the week.”
. “1 know r . He told me the same thing.
But I feel that we’ll never go. I never
postponed anything yet that didn’t

Carrying a Bundle.
A stylish looking woman who looked
as if she had rather die than carry a
bundle that wouldn't go into a hand
bag went into the women’s suit depart
ment of a big store lugging a
board box half as big as herself. Other
customers present wondered at her un
dignified action, but the saleswoman
did not wonder.
•“There is one time when the proud
est woman on earth will carry a bun
dle,” she said. “That is when some
garment has been sent home finished
off badly and has to be brought back
for alterations. If the customer would
only telephone to the store we would
send for the garment, but that would
take time. She wants it finished with
out delay, and rather than wait she
brings it down herself.”—New York
Sun.
Alaska’s Coast Region.
The coast region of Aiaska has a
mild climate, not colder than the
northern part of Puget sound or of
Scotland. The stand of trees is dense,
averaging for considerable areas 25,000
feet per acre, Sitka spruce forming
about 20 per cent of the stand and
western hemlock about 75 per cent.
Although by far the most abundant
species, western hemlock does not pro
duce as large individual trees as the
spruce or western red cedar, the for
mer occasionally showing a diameter
of six feet with a height of 150 feet
and the cedar diameters of from three
to four feet.
Origin of a Famous Saying.
Euclid, who is sometimes called the
father of mathematics, taught this
subject in the famous school at Alex
andria. Being asked one day by the
king of Egypt (Ptolemy Soter) whether
he could not teach him the science In
a shorter way, Euclid answered in
words that have been memorable ever
since, “Sire, there is no royal road to
learning.” Not many scraps of conver
sation have lived, as this reply has, for
2.200 years.
