London TltBlta, ' The wife of ii wealthy German furin. er was growing paler, thinner and more careworn every day. Since, she hurt always been strong and robust it worried lier husband very much so he employed one of the best physi cians in the community to do what he could to strengthen her. The cause of the trouble was the decaying of her teeth which gave a very foul odor to her breath as well as uudermlnded her constitution. The physician fearing that he would lose the large fees which which he was regularly receiving from his patient did not somrest that the teeth should be prawn. He continued to give the poor woman medicine which did little or no good A friend of the German advised him to consult a dentist who said that he could oure the woman if be were permitted to ex tract the decayed teeth and furnish a set of false ones. The farmer object ed saying "It will do no good, Doc. She die anyway," but finally consent ed to try the experiment although he had misgivins about spending niouey on one whom be considered to be nearly ready for the oottiu. After the teeth were drawn the patient gradually got better. When she and her husband returned to the office after the gums had healed and the false teeth were tit ted in her month the German danced around like a boy who had gotten his first new red-top boots. He was very happy because his wife look ed younger and handsomer than she had looked for many years. He stated that she looked ten years younger. Disregarding the presence of two soc iety ladles of the town he gradually approached her and sniffing said. "But doc, she stink a lettleyet'" In The Spring Time As the springtime approaches the peddler and the cheap auction man will be around in all his glory.

(Sieelal)-"Unelo Henry" Wallace, editor of Wallace's Farmer and chairman of the Roosevelt Country Life Commission, ono of the principal speakers of the Nebraska Conservation Congress, spoke before the legislature by invitation on last Friday. Dr. Wallace touched on tax ation, good roads, education and the tenant problem. He said that the legislature of Iowa is about to submit a constitutional amondment abolishing the general property tax aud appor tioning railroad and other corporation tax for purposes of stato administra tion, leaving the county free to make such levy as the voters see lit for local purposes; It is his belief that this method will remove Inequalities in tax ation due to evasions of tho personal property tax. Speaking of the education system Dr. Wallace declared that a survey of Iowa statistics shows that the million people on the fauns furnish but ten percent of the criminals, while the million and u quaiter in the cities fur nish ninety per cent. Only one per eent of the young ci iminals come from the farms, lie stated further that but one per eent of the litrm boys secure a liulshud education under the present system and that so much monev is spent on this one per cent thai It is impossible to educate the remainder pioperly. He pleaded strongly for a better system of rural schools. Dr. Wallace says that in Iowa tho road problem is complicated with more mud than in Nebraska and that in his 6tate "mud, niouey and misery go to gether and complicate the road pro blem," which they are endeavoring to work out by building permanent roads between county seat towns and good dirt roads from the town to the school bouse in the country. Mr. Wallace characterized the one-vear leasa as "a conspiracy between the .landlord and tenant through which both rob the land to the limit of their ability" and argued for the English system through which the tenant is entitled to an equity proportioned for the amount of unused fertility which he restores to the land in the form of manure. This system has contributed to long leases and a permanent tenant class in Kug land with largely increased crop pro duction. Dr. Wallace predicted that the state which first adonted a similar system would set the mark for ad vancement in the economic develop ment of agriculture. All Stars Defeat Red Cloud The Red Cloud V.

"This sir," said the clerk, "Is a wonderful time piece It is worth 1300 and will run three yeurs without wind ing." "Great Scottf'gasped the granger, "threo years without winding. Say, mister, how long would the blamed thing run If she was wound up?" "Little boy, is that your mamma over there with the beautiful set of furs?" "Yes sir."
