Of couree tbe father diaoorered tbe ability and enpa- ill t lei of ble boys tbrouan tbe ex plana tion of the fortune teller. He did what be advised biro to do, and they did euo ceed and came out at the top of tbe pile. Not that yon are to be a lawyer or a politician or a doctor that ie not tbe question; but you should select a calling, a occupation, that will fit your com ae . well ae the old fortune teller fitted tbe coses of tboae boya. It ia in your bands. It la for you to dolt Another little advice I want to give yon and that U keep out of debt. J lave watched it for the last slity-flve years. Nine-tenths of tbe peoploftbat .get Into debt are not benefited, but In jured, by contracting tbe debt One man told me "if I bad felt when I waa making that debt tbe same as I did when 1 was paying it, I would never have made it," Now carry yourselves ahead when you are making a debt, to the time when yon are compelled to pay It, and yon will not be likely to make It There are three cases where perhaps you msy be justified In contracting small debts, providing it is not possible to raise tbe money. One is for an education while yon are young, another ia for a doctor when you are aiok, and the other ia for a -coffin after death. Remember there are twelve cents on a dollar difference be tween alx per cent paid and six per cent received. Never sign a note for another man; never ask bim to algn for you. Stand or fall by yourself, if yon have to fall. Don't drag another man down by Laving Lim go your security by his name being on your note: neither allow bim to pull you down. It will be beet for both of you, if you both atand upon your own responsibility. Tbeee are words of experience and observation. I have seen It all. I know tbe effect To day the men in this city who are worth money, are tbe men who have always been out of debt. Hut five or six of tbein are left in the city of Lincoln who may be considered to-day wealthy, and every one of tbeee bad not a debt when tbe bard times came on. It is for you to do likewise. (Jo straight for what you want. Don't go around the corner on the sidewalk in order to be fatibonable. Don't respect tbe sign stuck up:"" Keep off tbe grass," but go straight for what you want. Don't stop to pick up a pin, because you cannot make a dollar a day by picking ing pins. Hut, It you bavs nothing elite to do, you would better pick up pins, lietteruo a little something and got a little something, for it is better than to do nothing and get nothing.

The following letter was printed in a Lincoln paper which is written up anj published for tbs especial delectation ol tbe mullet beads. . Therefore the imper. lists are barred from denouncing It as eopperhoadism.' The inhuman cruelty practiced upon tbe wounded hers re corded, was not caused from want of training and ability on the part of these officers but from want of the common traits of humanity, k gentleman who was an officer in tbs German army called the writers attention to this article, r marking that ne was very much sur prised at tbe statements mads therein. "Tbsstal in ths Philippines." bs said, "are all regular arm officers and ars trained at great cost to perform their duties. If such a fall ars as this bad been made in tbs German army, tbe probabil ities ars that ths delinquents would have been court martialed and shot. Tbs least punishment that would bavs been Inflicted upon then would have been a dishonorable discbargs from tbs arm. Tbs bridooe surgeon was tbe proper officer to make tbs requsitioa upon and was culpable in that bs did not bavs ths stretchers there before tbs fighting be gan.

CALIFORNIA FIGS ; Something more tban a ear ago tbs United States Department of Agriculture convinced that tbs fruiting of ths Smyrna fig la California and ths consequent pro duction in that state of a fig which abould equal tbs atandard fig of com. meros was dependent upon ths Introduc tion from south Kurope and tbssstab mitnt in California of a little insect which in Mediterranean countries fortilhsoe tbs Kmyrna fig, began a serins at experimen tal introductions of tbs insect. Ths question had been studied for sometime by Mr. (ieorge C. Koeding of Fresno, Cal and Mr. John Hock of Nlles, Cal. At Fresno and Nilos numbers of Smyrna figs as well as wild figs from south Kurope, in which tbs fertilising insect, known as Dlostopbaga, envelopes, bod also been started. Dr. Howard, ths entomologist of the department of agri culture, went to California in tbs spring of IH'JH to look over ths ground in Cali fornia to ascertain ths conditions, and to settle on tb best points at which to attempt the introduction of ths Euro pean Insect. Another agent of ths de purtment, Mr. Walter T. Hwlngls, was sent to south Kurope partly for tbs pur pose of sending to this countr cuttings of all varieties of wild figs which could bo found, and to send over living sped mens of tbs lilostopbaga. It was thought worth while to send to this country tb fruit of tbs wild fig or ths Capri fig, as it is called, containing tbe living Insects, and this was dons on a number of occasions by Mr. Swingle. A Capri fig tree was enclosed at Mr. Itooding's place at Fresno, and, on tbs arrival of tbs Knropean figs, ths insects which wres found to bs in good condi tion were liberated within tb enclosurs. Tbs living iuaeete bad previously been obtained by correspondence by Mr. James Hblnn of Nlles, and by Mr, Hood ing, but tbs insects bad died before re producing. Mr. Hwlngls adopted a nsw method of packing for transportation, sacb fig being carefully wrapped in tin foil and sealed with wax. Tbs first speci men were received at Fresno in tbs early part of May. 1898, but so far as could bs observed, none of them laid eggs either from this or subsequent send ing. All through tbs intervening ear wild fig cuttings bav been received and started hinder varying conditions. It was realized that tbs attempt thus for described wer very problematical in their results and that the chances of suc cess war small. It was planned, there fore, to ' transplant Capri fig trees into large tubs and carry them across tbs Atlantic in growing condition wltb tbsir fruit and ths contained Insects; and ons ratber large tree has been sent over tba present spring by Mr. Swingle. It now turns out, however, that by great good fortune some of tbs Insects Brought over In 1808 did succeed in pen etrating tbs closed flowers pf tbs Capri ngs growing at Fresno, and that tbey laid their eggs and havs practically es tablished themselves In California. Tbe first step of the experimental work Is, therefore, a success. Si ace the insect has maintained Itself for an entire year there is reaeon to suppose that It wlllcontinuo to brood, and that California In tbe near future will be able to place a fig upon tbe market which will pomapms ths same superior flavor as that which bos given tbe imported nmrna tigs tneir preemi nent commercial rauk. This flavor seems without doubt to be dependent upon the number of ripened seeds within tbe fruit This fact has boon ascertained through experiment in tbe artificial fertilization of Smyrna figs grown In California. Ex periment were mode by Dr. ,ten and Mr. Koeding, both with tbs transfer of pollen from Capri figs by means of a toothpick and uy moans 01 a blowpipe. In this way a large number of aeede were fertilised, probably balf aa many as ars fertilised by the work of tbe Dlastophaga In Aalu Minor, but already tb char acteriUo flavor of ths European tigs wti noticed. farmer Meeting, Ths monthly meeting of the Lnneaetor county landers' club occurred Juno IS, at tils borne ol Mr. and Mr.Uuu, lonr aud a half mile south wtof lUymond.

An enormous float was carried In by Mr. Pierce, measuring about three feet In oircuuiferenoe, a verit able flotilla of flowers. - Tbs meeting was opened by singing. Recitations and readlnga were bad by ths following young ladles: Dsitbs. Floyd Jackson, Wssoott, Tburwsll, and a reading by Mr. Bethuns la broad Scotch dialect. Then there was a song by Mr, and Mrs. Hugglston which is alwas listensd to with pleasure. Ths cost of cribbing corn was then discussed, Tbs said that man do not consider tbs sxpsnsas Incurred in raising corn, nor tbs man bard days work in tbs broiling sun, Tbey bavs to bavs ths ground to raise it on first, then it takes a good big sum of money to provide boraoa and machin ery, build cribs, and In tbe msantlms tbey bavs to provlds for their living, then after all Is don comes the tedious picking by band, frseslng of bands or foot.
