Give to him that asketh thee, and
from him that would borrow of thee
turn not thou away. Matthew v.
42.
:o:-
It is still hot and the corn Is be
ing greatly benefitted.
:o:
Governor Bryan starts probe of
the $70,000 road Job scandal.
:o;
Congress dry forces are greatly
alarmed at prospects. And well they
may be so.
:o;
Fine clothes and poor grammar
deceive no one but the one to whom
they belong.-
:o:
Chloroform used by New York
burglars made ten people sick.
It should be against the law.
:o:
President Harding got so seasick
on the Journey to Alaska that his
doctor had to call In a physician.
-:o:-
Children never realize how hard
It is to make money. An Alabama boy
swallowed three dimes.
:o:
McAdoo is looming up as a candi
date for president on the democratic
ticket. He seems to lead east, west,
north and south.
:o:
While at Lincoln Tnursday we met
many of our old friends from thru
out the state men we have not met
since the adjournment of the legisla
ture in 1908. And for an hour and
a half we enjoyed a genuine reunion.
-:o:-
As soon as loyal Americans crush
out all the I. W. W.'s and Reds and
send them back where they come
from, then again we can have a home
of the free and the brave. Discard
ing all the dupes that come to this
country.
:o: '7"
We spent an hour with Governor
Bryan last Wednesday, and if any
one is doubtful of the governor's bus
iness qualities, a visit to the state
capital will soon convince him that
Charley is a very busy man at all
hours of the day.
The German government asks tha
return of certain documents captur
ed by the American armies. They are
still trying scientifically to ascertain
over there( why the German troops
never got to Paris. Instead of study
ing the document they ought to
make inquiry of Foch and Haig and
Pershing.
:o:
It is estimated that various Inven
tions put forth by Thomas A. Edi
son ere no wfurnlshing employment
to nearly 1,000,000 men and women
In America alone. In the main the
work Is clean, wholesome and
well paid. It betters the mind
and stimulates ambition. The Import
ance of a genius like Edison to his
country is not to be calculated in
earthly terms.
:o:
Do you play the stock market "on
Tnargin?" If you do, you should be
backing a 10 to 1 shot, In order to
get an even run for your money. For
9 out of 10 who gamble in stocks on
a marginal basis, lose their money.
Who says so? A high' official of the
Consolidated Stock Exchange, New
York City. Paste this in your hats,
Shoestring plungers.
t-:o:
The World war began nine years
ago the 28th of this month July. It
was the first phase of a gigantic so
cial upheaval, and-only a few who
are now living will survive to learn
what it was all about that is, the
ultimate goal. The war itself merely
set the stage for a performance that
as yet is but barely started. That
performance, in the long run, will
not be a comedy of errors.
. There was much suffering from re
cent waves of intense heat in the
east and the rise in temperature was
given as the cause of many deaths,
but the old fashioned sunstroke In
which the sufferer kelled over on the
public highway Is extremely rare.
The man who toppled over beneath
the blazing arrows of the sun was
unusually well primed with high
balls. It was the man whose tummy
was distended with 38 per cent of
alcohol who went down In the fiery
glare of Sol. Now that inhaling mint
is becoming a lost art our humans
are living longer and putting up a
better fight . against tha ptrils of
high. noon.
Too many of us are apt to waste
our past dreaming about our future.
:o:
About five million pairs of glasses
are sold every year. Just to help our
looks.
-:o:-
One thing about stopping at hotels
Is you don't have to wash out the
bath tub.
These are mornings you eat canta
loupe for breakfast, if the things are
ripe enough. .
:o:
Every woman hates to see her hus
band lose his hair. It leaves no place
to grab him.-"
-:o:
The trouble with mixing business
with pleasure, is you are liable to run
out of business.
:o:-
Night and day are both good for
sleeping but the best time is while
the baby's asleep.
:o:
About 250,000 chickens burned on
an Illinois farm. Smelled like a new
cook getting dinner.
:o:
Mr. Karlpulsernuellerller was ar
rested for being drunk in Chicago.
We don't blame him.
-:o:-
A bachelor tells us his suitcase
has just returned from its second
honeymoon this year.
:o:
Everything has Its place. Flies
keep lots of people from just sitting
around doing nothing.
It would be interesting to know If
Carpentier bet anything on Dempsey
to whip Gibbons.
Married ball players seldom ar
gue with umpires. They have forgot
ten how to argue.
:o:
Teeth are nice things. If you had
no eeth what would you grit when
a collector comes?
-:o:-
Unlted States spends more on gum
than religion. This is because gum
is used every day.
:o:
A summer - tourist stopped long
enough to tell us our roads should
be made wider and shorter.
-:o:
The governor of New York says
he is bent on running for president.
He may be broke on finishing.
:o:-
Dlfference between bachelors and
used autos isn't much. Both have
been run a few thousand miles.
:o:-
As Will Rogers well says, we all
ought to feel proud of that big Le
viathan. The former German ship
and a large crop of cooties Is about
all we got out of the war.
-:o:-
There is said to be nut one chance
In 250.000 of being struck by light
ning, but like the train that passes a
crossing only once a day when it does
hit It makes a dent as if the hazard
were much greater.
:o:-
Adrenalin has been successfully
used in restoring life after the vital
organs had already ceased function
ing. Seems as if it would pay to in
ject a little of it into the brains of
some of our politicians.
:o:
According to the government cen
sus there are only some 14.000 ac
tresses in the United States. It seems
that the other 100,000 who dress for
the ball room scene in movies only
think they are. It takes more than
atmosphere to make an actress. Even
eleven yards of chiffon won't do it.
:o: ,
Now they have opened a beauty
shop for dogs and some of these bull
pups from Boston look as if they
needed it. But, if our Airedales are
to be equipped with .permanent
waves and " our terriors are to be
manicured, this will be a dog-gone
fine world.
:o:-
English statesmen seem to be
agreed that there will be no further
reduction of armaments so far as
Britons are buying more safety raz
ors than ever before. France Is still
refusing to officially approve the
agreement entered into at the.Wash
ington conference. Senator Under
wood, who has just returned from
an Old World research, says that Eu
rope Is In a more peppery temper
than she was in 1914, so far as war
la concerned. The only thing that
prevents complete embroilment is
the lack of money to start tha thing.
Central Europe is as fuaey as tie in
side of a beehive. . 1
THE POISONED TONGUE
Subjected to acid analysts, there
is little difference between, the in-
cendiarist and the gosslper.
One burns down the neighbor's
house and the other seeks to burn
down hia neighbor's character.
In cold truth, the gosslper Is the
worst criminal of the two. The home
can be replaced, but a blasted char
acter is well nigh hopeless.
The reputation or character of no
person is safe against the gosslper
and his malignant tongue. It recalls
the tragedy of Desdemona, sweet.
lovable and virtuous, with never a
thought of evil in her mind yet por
trayed by a poisoned tongue to her
husband as unfaithful to wifely vows
and he, in a towering rage, spurred
on by maddening jealousy, killed her
in her bed.
That classic tragedy has had ten
thousand counterparts In less drar
matic but equal sordid 'settings. The
murderer of Desdemona was not
Othello alone. The chief slayer was
the creature who wittingly poisoned
the murderer's mind and these mind
poisoners abound wherever social en
vy, personal malice and vicious tem
peraments abound.
:o:
YOUE DESTINY
Jack Slattery, Harvard baseball
coach, says: "If I was a young man
starting out in life, I would work my
way through college and enter the
wool business."
There Is no way of settling the
bet, but we'd wager that if Jack had
his life to live over again, he'd wind
up as Harvard baseball coach.
The lure of circumstances that or
iginally kept him from entering the
wool business would gravitate him to
baseball.
So with the rest of us. If we had
our lives to live over again, the end
of the road would find us where we
are now. It is futile to talk of how
we'd profit by what we have learned,
for that is dealing with the impossi
ble. Turning the clock back and re
storing our youth would not give us
clairvoyant power of peering Into the
future.
Many roads are open- to us in
youth. But as we get older we set
tle into one rut. At 35 the average
man has a fairly clear Idea of what
he is going to do for the rest of his
earthly days.
By the time we reach 50, we'be-
gln realizing that our careers are the
result of two things an expression
of our real selves and, secondly, cir
cumstances over which we have no
control. -
If we could live our lives over
again, it is reasonably plausible that
our real selves would not express
themselves differently, and that the
outside circumstances would be as
far beyond our control as ever.
O. Henry wrote a philosophical
story along this line. He called it
Roads of Destiny." A young man
striking out into the world, came to
a triple fork in the road. The story
showed what happened after he took
the first fork, then the second, fin
ally the third. On each road he led a
different life. But the wind-up of his
career was the same, on all three
roads.
All this, of course, Is along the
lines of oriental fatalism, the idea
that we are puppets, creatures of
chance. Many will claim that they
do not believe In fatalism and a
moment later lamenting their "bad
luck" or rejoicing at their "good
luck." -
If you believe In luck at all, you
are a fatalist.
Late in life, the average person
realizes how short life is, that it is
merely a between stations trip on
the Journey through eternity. -And
the average person goes out of this
life with the impression that earth
ly existence is a "training school, a
sort of spiritual gymnasium.
The material success we make does
not matter so much. Life Is a fail
ure or success accordingly as we ben
efit our spiritual nature by our
earthly experience. Is life improving
you? If it is you are fullfilling your
destiny.
-:o:
What bothers a stout woman is
that when she puts on a bungalow
apron she feeU as big as a cottage.
Tomorrow Ja the great bargain
day. Greater bargains than ever be
fore. Come and see, seeing is believ
ing. . '
-:o:
Every blasted I. W. W. should be
sent fro mthis country. If people
want to live in America, let them do
as Americans, keep peace and sup
port the Stars and Stripes.
:o:
A prominent prognostlcator re
marks that Mr. Ford "makes ma
chines" Mr. Rockefeller "makes mon
ey." Our observation is, however,
that the former, gentleman has not
overlooks the, possibilities of money
as a by-product' of his machioe. making.

HESSIAN FLY
IN THE WHEAT
1 Infestation is Spreading But Loss
Not So Threatenine as at
First, Says Entomologist.
In his report on insect conditions
in Nebraska, Myron H. Swenk, en
tomologist. Nebraska agricultural
college and state entomologist, says:
During the last two weeks in June
It developed that the Hessian fly in
festation was somewhat more general
than had been realized over tho por
tion of southeastern Nebraska lying
west of Case, Otoe, Nemaha, Richard
son, Johnson and Pawnee counties.
Saunders, Dodge and Butler counties
seem to be quite generally infested, a
tensely west to Dawson county, in
the general region of the lower
Platte valley. Westwardly along the
Kansas border the infestation ex
tends to Red Willow county, Furnas
county being quite generally Infest
ed. However, owing to the excellent
growing conditions for the wheat the
loss is apparently going to be much
lees than it threatened to be.
There has been considerable com
ment concerning the rather large
number of whitened heads of wheat
destroyed by the greater wheat-stem
maggot in some eastern Nebraska
counties. This has been particularly
true in Saunders county, where a
large number of fields are reported
as more or less infested. One case
of infestation in that county esti
mated 50 per cent of the heads of
wheat in the field whitened, but as a
rule the damage is small. Lancaster
county and Colfax county report fre
quent but scattering Infestation with
this pest. The reports were received
from June 16 to June 28.
Not since 1899 have there been so
many complaints of an abundance of
the English grain aphis on the wheat
heads in southeastern Nebraska as
there have been this spring. Such re
ports were first reecived June 18,
and have come from Cass, Otoe, Ne
maha, Johnson, Lancaster, Gage and
Saline counties. Altho the aphids
are very abundant "on the heads
there has been such an abundance of
moisture and such excellent grow
ing conditions for the wheat that no
seriou3 injury to the already ripen
ing crop is expected because of their
presence.
