Child-Training.
It Is cot fair to a small child for the
parents or nurse to be careless about
the little things that develop thought
fulness, self-reliance and self-control
In a child. Self-control Is a character-
Istlo absolutely essential to manhood
or womanhood, and It is not learned In
a dy. It Is the result of patient teach
ing and training through all the long
years of babyhood and childhood.
Thought His Duty Ended.
The Due de Raguse once explained
to the Countess de Bolgne the nature
of his oonneotion with the emperor as
follows: "When the Mnperor said,
'All for France,' I strvei with enthusi
asm; when he said, 'France and V
erred with obedlance; but when he
aid, T without France, I felt the ne
ceeeity of separating from him."

Shortly after Walt Whitman'i

Yield of a Grain of Wheat
Very few people have an Idea of
the bounty of nature. A scientist of
Cambridge, Eng., recently made an in
6tructive experiment which showed
that a single grain of wheat sown In
June, produced 47 pounds 7 ounces.
One acre of fairly good land will pro
duce 30 bushels of wheat or L260
pounds of flour.

Rabbits Cause Immense Lose,

Pretty Girls and Plain Men.
When a pretty woman marries a
plain man it is not because she pities
him. A woman loves a man because
of his strength. His determination ap
peals to her, and wins her In the end,
though she may not have been at
tracted to him In the beginning. Firm
ness compels a woman's admiration
and respect, and that is the first step

Lake Valley, N. 1.1.,
In Room Days.
Movie men looking for atomoa
phere for s Ren nine western drama
would have found it In Lake Val
ley, IN. M., , in 1881. Incident
transpiring in that place as early
as that date are interestingly told
by one of the old pioneers who ar
rived there in 1881.
"I arrived," he said, jnst after
the Bridal Chamber woe? discover

seven negro soldiers had been kill

was killed on the very day the B,

serves me right, that was August
13,1881.
"The Bridal Chamber was the
largest body of horn silver ore
ever fonnd. Three million dollars
worth of ore was taken oat in
about tbree months. The town
was' all excitement, which at
tracted all the floating popula-
tion'cf tbe southwest. Among
thoce who flocked in were preach-.
era, horse thieves, 'high graders'
and gamblers. tEveryj house in
the town was a saloon. Tbe min

the billndes. Faro gamesjranday
and night. The ceiling was the
limit. ' Tbe ante in poker gamea
was a "maverick.' It took a steer
to come in. Men bet high in, those
days and slept in the streets.
"I was fortunate enough to

nine oui occupied the cabin and
slept standing'ap.
"I remember tbe time the cattle
rustlers came to town. Tbey were
wearing several belts of cartridges
and began to whoop things up. A
gambler Asked one of the metiers

No Tombstone forme. I am go
