BEATRICE CREAMERY COMPANY Lincoln.Neb. NOW DID YOU EVER sit dowu calmly and think out. or figure out, the real problem of life the provision for asre and dependents? Did you ever, with your wife, or some one else for whom provision must be made, take a peueil and set down the figures that represent your earning capacity now and opposite that the necessary cost of your living? And if you did were you not absorbed in the problem of your responsibility to make provision for sickness, for age and dependents out of the difference! Is there any thing more interesting and absorbing to normal men and women than making provision; that is, taking from earnings some definite part and then pruning, watering, cultivating with the love of normal manhood and womanhood and watch that provision jrrowf You are losing much in your own develop ment in postponing the time of beginning this provision.

There are two ways of doing almost eTery thing, and this is especially true of fastening battery and rail terminal wires. One way is wrong, and the other is to twist the bare end of the wire around tlie terminal as the hands of the clock move, and then tighten op the nut The reason for this la be cause the screw-thread Is right-handed, therefore the tendency of the tight ening nut win be to twist the wire around the terminal tighter than it was. Should the wire be twisted the other way. the nut would tend to un twist it and It would slip under the nut and Tery likely get a very poor hold. Enemies of Matrimony. Wedlock seems to be la a bad way In the mountains of the Dauphins. The confirmed bachelors of the country nave decided to meet every month and toast celibacy. Invitation are sent out with the Information. "Good feed ing, good drinking, moca laughter, much dancing. An added insult to matrimony U that the invitations have been sent to all spinsters who have "put an St. Katherine's cap;" that la to say. who are over 25, and re therefore pr. sumed to be on the high road to old maidenhood. The confirmed bach elors announce their intention of eat ing, drinking, laughing and dancing with the old maids every month. But their very hardihood may be their undoing. Buzzard Freed of Trap. After a chase of three hours. Abram Layton and his son captured one of the largest buzzards ever seen In this sec tion. Attached to the bird's leg was a steel trap and an Iron chain three feet long. The buzzard waa so ema ciated that it could hardly fly with its burden, which It had evidently carried tor months, as the wound made by the snapping of the steel trap had entirely healed. The bird did not show fight, but seemed glad to get rid of Its burden, and it looked so pitiful that Mr. Lay ton had compassloa on It and set It tree. Clayton Correspondence Phila delphia Record. Even More TiresoiRc. "s there vnybodjr quito as Irriuu its." said a doctor, "as my partner, who invariably comes round after something happens and says, "i told you so'?" Tea," replied his friend. "An uncle of mine is quite as tiresome. He nev er says 't told you so in so few words, but always remarks, in a tone of mournful triumph. 'And yet I was wholly unable to make any of yon perceive, although It was perfectly clear to my mind, that such would be the Inevitable result." Careful. Old Fashioned Party (with old fash ioned prejudices) Ah. very clever. I dare say. But I see If s written by a lady, and I want a book that my daughters may read. Give me some thing else!" Punch. Small Qualification. He who Is good ait making excuses is seldom good for anything else. Benjamin franklin. Ill Timed Humor. Dr. Frederick Tan Eeden. the Dutch physician and author, always kept in sight the injustice of fate that sub jects the poor to tortures from which the rich are exempt. He told the fol io wins bitter little anecdote, which occurred during his student days in Amsterdam: Once a poor man was brought In affected with a very strange and rare disease of the spine that caused him. by involuntary spasms of the legs, to jump and to continue hopping when he tried to stand on his legs. Our pro fessor wanted to show this to his stu dents, and he requested the patient to stand on his feet. The poor man looked at the crowd around and said with a pathetic. Imploring look: "If the gentlemen will please not laugh. The professor promised they would be serious. And yet when the man began to hop the "gentlemen roared. And I felt the tears come to my eyes and my fists close In my pockets. World's Work. A Greenland Duel. It la rather a pity for the gayety of nations that French men of letters cannot fight their duels as duels are fought in Greenland. In Greenland when one man has been Insulted by another the adversaries each compose a satire in verse. This each man re cites to his household until the serv ants and the women know it by heart. Then a place of meeting is ap pointed. The two men, the lnsulter and insulted, the offender and offended, stand face to face, and each recites bis poem. His friends and servants form a chorus. Each man tries hard to raise the laugh against his adversary. Each man speaks in turn, whipping the enemy with epigram and quip, and after two hours of this wordy battle the meeting gives the victory to him of the two adversaries who has amused the whole assembly most. Colored His Sermons. "A minister has got to be alive and resourceful today." said a deacon of a big metropolitan church. "Ours finds he cant speak well extemporaneously, and he reads from a typewritten copy. I never knew how he managed to preach so effectively until one day I happened to see his manuscript. Half of it was underlined In different colors. It looked so curious that I asked him about it "'A little scheme of mine, he said laughingly. 1 found I was delivering what I had written In the same tone. So now, early on Sunday morning. I go over the copy I carry into the pul pit. I keep crayon pencils of six differ ent colors on my desk. Red means one tone, green yet another, yellow and blue yet others. As I turn each page I see at a glance Just how I am to speak. Kew York Son. Secret Societies. Secret societies are so ancient that their origin is lost in the mists of the past. They existed in Egypt. Persia. India, at the earliest times with whii-h history or legend gives us any Insight. It seems to be natural for men to organize such societies for both good und evil purposes. Nearly ail the ancient re)idons were of a two faced character, popular and secret, or. as they are called, "esoteric" and "ex oteric." the first for the few. the in itiated, the second for the rank and file. The philosophers would teach one thing to the masses of the people and another to the select few who made np the "inner circle." Cicero tells us that the wise men of Rome and Greece be lieved quite differently from the com mon run of Greeks and Romans. A Good Listener. Alfred Henry Lewis, the author. walking np Pennsylvania avenue one day when be met Louis Brownlow. the magazine writer. "Louis." said Lewis solemnly, "listen to me for three hours. -Why. what's the matter T asked Brownlow. "Why. said Lewis Indignantly. rve been In this town an day. and every body else has been doing the talking. I do love my tittle conversation' Brownlow went to luncheon with him and, after doing a sprint In long distance listening, pulled out his watch with the remark: "Lewis. I"ve listen ed to you tor three hours and nine minutes. Goodby." Sew York Tribune. The Genuine Article. "I don't know about this picture. Bobby." said the visitor as he ran over specimens of the youngster's camera work. "I am afraid a dog with a propeller tnstwwl of a tail Is something of a fake." That ain't a propeller." said Bobby. -That's his tan. He kept waggin It while his picture was being tookeoed." Harper's Weekly. Vulgar.
