Testing for Capitol Walla,
LINCOLN Forty-eight tons of iron
rails had been placd upon the testing
apparatus on the state house grounds
Monday afternoon, with no settling of
the four feet square - column except
what is descr.bed as the taking up of
the slack. The settling of the appara
tus into its position in the ground is
slight but it not counted as a pene

was expected sixty tonsof iron would
be in use. A total f 500 tons to be
used before the test is finished. Engi

When Life's shadows grow dim and the twi

We sometimes lose track of the fact that we can
not always work as we do now. Many an old couple
could be happier and far more comfortable today if
just a little more foresight had been used in their
younger days, and the savings habit had been start
