Greek and Arabic. o:o Sticking a pen in Penrose is a favorite form of sport with the edi tors of this cou'ntry. :o: A crease in a fat man's trousers is another one of those things you read about, but seldom see. :o: The new republican administra tion will levy the tax that comes nearer taking your money without your knowing it. :o: ; A.-Chicago paper says that women always close their eyes when kissing a man. If they do they are not to be blamed. Girls, we hate to say it, but some of you look simply fierce in woolen stockings, low sbces, In the winter time, especially those of you' who are afflicted with bow legs or thick ankles. , -:o: The ex-kaiser says he was kept in the dark by his generals during the war. That is oneof the natural disadvantages all thtk Hohenzollerns labored under, keeping so far from the front. -:o:- :o:- If Carpentier wants to keep Jack Dempsey from fighting, he ought to persuade France to pull off another World War. :o:- A woman invariably tells a small boy to hurry back when she sends him on an important errand but what's the use? o- Eggs are down to 4 cents a piece. Ere long they can reach a price where the old-fashioned nickel can look an egg in the face. :o: "Trouble Looms Over the Tariff", eays a newspaper headline. 'As a trouble maker the tariff is the nif tiest thing that ever happened. :o: As a general thing, the school teacher who boxes a child's ears did not have enough preparation at the normal in the subject of anatomy. :o: An "eminent cosmetic surgeon" tells the girls that the worst foes of beauty are ' laughters and grief. From which sentiment it is conclud ed that "cosmetic surgeon" is some where permitted as high sounding term for barber. Experiments in the Soviet hospi tals of Russia have produced an an esthetic which can be used with prac tically no danger and the patient awakes from sleep, without the nau seous feeling. -:o: The gross sales of one of the big packing companies last year amount ed to over a billion dollars, which probably would have represented a nice profit in some lines of business run for profit. :o: The New Hampshire legislature has a bill regulating the height of heels on women's shots, and Massachu setts has a bill to prohibit tipping.

But if it isn't tu berculosis to worry us it will be something else. There's always something to give mankind worry. : o:c Senator Borah is downright mean in saying that $10 is enough to spend on the Harding inaugural. He ought to allow the new president enough to pay taxicab fare from the White House to the capitol and back. :o: A Danville, Illinois, woman is on a hunger strike to induce her hus band to sell out a profitable business and go into the ministry. This practice in going hungry may come in handy if the husband decides to relent. :o: The enforcement of the prohibition law this year, according to an official estimate, will cost $7,000,000 and ; require a largely increased force or officers. This drought is the most expensive the country has ever ex perienced. :o: Brick masons in Salt Lake City have asked their employers to reduce wages from $10 to $8 per day. They will probably have to volunteer an other cut before employment becomes plentiful. :o: It may not be law, but it is cer tainly good old common sense, which prompts us to say that a man or a corporation has an inalienable right to quit business whenever and wher ever he sees fit to do so. fife Farm Near Platismoulh!

O'O It is jealousy in women that make3 them say mean things behind your back, but when men say such things it is pure cussedness. -:o:- Business is certainly booming in some lines. For instance, burglars visited a Chicago pawn shop and got away with $50,000 in cold cash.' :o: "Wanted, man who can drive car and wife, to take charge of small es tate," says an ad. There may be such a specimen, but it is doubtful. -:o: Talk to a man wearing a third term overcoat, and he probably will inform you it is "not the money so much as the principle of the thing." :o: Chicago hotel proprietors say they are willing to "lead the way to price ! reduction." The windy city hole! : men must have been asleep for the j past four months. However, they : are not too late to join the rear of the procession. :o: German scientists in Berlin have constructed a giant searchlight with which they hope to carry on the task of sending signals to Mars. Very interesting, but couldn't they employ their time just as well work ing out means of sending indemni ties to the allies? :o: Dr. Ernest Seton-Thompson, the naturalist, who once denounced Col. Roosevelt as a nature fakir, agrees wtlh us as to the immorality of clothes. The fewer the clothes the better the morals, he says, and of fers a choice line of argument in sup port of the contention. Aside from everything you say, Professor, clothes are not only moral but they are grow ing awful expensive. We might en dure the immorality, but it is gol darued hard to ksep up with the expense.

Th' farmers of that portion of tbe county have been engaged in shelling cor;: and delivering it to the elevators and the result is that the Wilson eleva tor is full and the Farmer's elevator will reach its capacity today and to morrow and this will necessitate a lull in the grain market unless the Missouri Pacific can be prevailed up cn to get cars to the elevators so that the grain can be marketed. The Wilson elevator of which I). J.

Ueckstead. well known hog raiser and authority or live stock. Mr. Beckstead's hogs are the envy of his neighbors, and have "topper the market" for several years in Iowa. He states that for years he bought high-priced hog foods and hog remedies, but he is all through pay ing extravagant prices for what he can made himself. He states that what the hogs need are minerals, and tells the secret of his wonderful suc cess by explaining that he takes about live pounds of ordinary niineralin' (which is pure concentrated minerals and cost only a couple of dollars) anc1 mixes same with enough bran or filler to make a hundred pounds. All hogs, and especially brood sows re quire minerals as they keep them free from worms, and in the pink of con dition, and are essential to the hog; growth and a well balanced ration This inexpensive mixture placed ir a sheltered box where the hogs ca' get at it as they need it, will produce far better results than jany high priced so-called stock foods.
