Reluctant Obedience.
wise pupp being told to lie down
Is a certain place will obey meekly
at the moment,. ad then, waiting until
fcls master's 'attention is diverted, will
slip slowly away from his post. His
relnctance to stay where he Is told Is
not based on a dislike of the spot, for
lie will often select it for himself bat
purely on his prejudice against obedi
ence as such. So the child loves to
assert his freedom, by doing what he
would consider a serious hardship if
he were compelled to do it. A keen
seat la added to' play it it is close to
the edge of the forbidden. Like many
of the naughtinesses of human kind,
desire for the unpermitted underlies
the great, advances of the race. Erect
a barrier, and the child and the man
Ions to climb over it, says the Youth's
Companion. The Impassable moun
tain, the unsailed ocean, the mysteri
ous law of nature, the infinitely dis
tant star these are so many irresist
ible magnets to the pioneer, and they
lead him, through what we may truly
call an audacious disobedience, to new
worlds and new triumphs of mind over
matter. "Why are the cows always
getting out of the pasture?" asked the
schoolmistress of the old farmer.
"Wal, I suppose it's because they
want to be where they ain't!" A
glorious impulse, which climbs from
brute to man and so on, to the
heights of future development! The
puppy, the. cow, the child, the pioneer,
the man of science alike may glory in
their reluctant and temporary obedi
ence to the voice which says, "Stay
here!"
Bookless Homes.
College teachers report almost in
credible ignorance of standard litera
ture among classes that come up to
secure tLJ higher education. An ex
amination of the minds of many fresh
men brings to light cavities of appal
ling magnitude; young men from well-to-do
homes arrive at the college gates
without any of the passwords which
admit men to educated society. They
have r hazy idea that the Bible is an
old book which belongs with "The New
England Primer" on the dusty shelves
where obsolete publications are put
out of the way. They have heard of
Shakespeare, but are under the im
pression that he was a popular novel
ist They have no knowledge of Col.
Esmond, Mr. Pickwick, Sir Roger de
Coverley, Miles Coverdale, or Evan
geline. They know something about
Rip Van Winkle because they have
been to the theater, and for the same
reason they are not without impres
sions of Hamlet, though they fail to
associate his tragic career with Shake
speare. The examination papers in
English are sometimes far more
amusing than the journals which
make joking a profession. If it were
not for the entrance requirements,
says the Outlook, some students who
knock at college doors would be as in
nocent of knowledge of the literature
which is supposed to be the common
possession of educated men as if they
had just arrived from Mars. . . .
Bookless homes are merely boarding
houses for neglected children.
It may be that science and the doc
tors will yet prevail on man to steril
ize the tempting lips of his lady love
before kissing her, but if the latter
were consulted she would prefer to
have him bring along his barber tools
unless he comes with a fresh shave.
A Chicago girl has had a man arrest
ed for making her cheeks sore by
kissing her while -he was in an un
razored condition. It is very annoy
ing to the tender and confiding young
woman who has read about kisses in
the books suddenly to have a shoe
brush shoved against her face, says
Chicago Daily News, and to be ex
pected to like that sort of thing.
There is room for reform in kissing,
but the kisses and not the scientist
should say what the reforms should
be.
The Seattle university professor
who is advising the young men of his
classes not to marry until the cost of
living Is lower, has put thimself into
direct conflict with the Roosevelt gos
pel of anti-race suicide. Moreover, he
is wasting his breath. The chances
are that numbers of his young men
are already engaged to "coeds" and
.will cheerfully marry on nothing a
year before next Christmas. Even the
shadow of the dollar, says the Cleve
land Leader, can not extinguish young
love and hope, and fortunate it is for
the world that this is so. f

GOOD TO EMPLOYES
UNCLE SAM TREATS HIS WORK
ERS GENEROUSLY. '"
In Matters of Vacations and Sick
Leave He Might Be Termed.
"Easy" Policy of Retrench
ment a Failure.
- .
It,costs Uncle Sam in the neighbor
hood of $6,000,000 annually for the
leisure of his employes. Not many
employers treat their employes so
generously.' In fact not-many could
afford to do so. There are on the gov
ernment payroll about 55,000 em
ployes, and their annual salaries ap
proximate about $60,000,000. Most of
these employes are entitled to 30 days'
vacation annually. They are also al
lowed to take 30 days1 sick leave an
nually on full pay. It is estimated
that 75 per cent of the employes take'
their vacations regularly, and many
take their full 30 days sick, leave.
A treasury official with whom sta
tistics are a hobby has made. a careful
computation, and says that more
than $6,000,000 of good government
funds go for "loafing spells" of em
ployes. As he figures it the govern
ment work could be done with one
twelfth less the present number of
employes easily. Or, taken In another
form, the present force can do all the
government work In llmonths, prob
ably' in ten, for which they now re
recive the 12 months' pay. He also
suggests that if the government work
was' done by contract it could be
done for three-fourths the present
cost
"There Is one remarkable feature
about this vacation business," said
he, "and that Is that the more salary
a man draws the longer vacation he
takes. The ordinary employes get 30
days' annuual and 30 days' sick leave,
if they can supply a doctor's certifi
cate. Many heads of departments
take from three to four months, and
do' not' have to account to anybody.
It's a case where the little fish get
the worst of it as usual. But the sub
ordinate employes have no complaint
when compared to employes of rail
roads and other concerns which are
large employers of labor."
When confronted with the vast sum
paid out for leisure, government of
ficials say the payroll is just the same
whether the employes worked ten
months or 12; that there are just so
many people to do the work and just
so much work to be done; that if they
do it in ten months Uncle Sam is
none the loser. Still, when a railroad
or other big employer of labor finds
that five-sixths of its present force of
employes can do all the work it
doesn't hesitate to discharge the other
sixth. Uncle Sam is not so harsh. He
discharges an employe now and then
for unfaithfulness, but never simply
because the employe has nothing to
do.
Some time ago Secretary Garfield
began a "retrenchment" policy In the
department of the interior. He abol
ished two or three divisions in his of
fice and sent the work to the Indian
bureau and general land office. But
many clerks in the division which he
abolished were transferred to the
Indian bureau or land office, and sev
eral of them had their salaries In
creased. Another illustration is given. At
the recent session of congress an ef
fort was made, in the interests of
economy, to wipe out all the outside
pensioners from the Washington bu
reau. When sifted down it was found
that the bureau Intended to bring all
the clerks at the outside offices to
Washington at the same or increased
salaries. Figures were produced to
show that instead of being in the In
terests, of economy it would really
cost the government more, so the sen
ate defeated the bill
Good Fishing Around Capital.
The ancient and fascinating pastime
of angling has many votaries in Wash
ington, who find ample opportunities
these days to gratify their hobby. This
does not apply to the game fishermen,
the experts with fly and casting rod,
but to the common every day garden
worm fisherman, who with line and
sinker angles for white perch and cat
fish. On a pleasant day it will be pos
sible to see a thousand lines a-wetting
from the Long bridge to the Chain
bridge. There will be men and boys
in boats, on the wharves and fishing
from the sea wall and river and bank.
And most of them catch something.
This is the white perch season, but
the fish are running small this year.
The oldtimers say that the proper way
to fish for white perch is to use a
heavy sinker and fish on the bottom
as the big perch swim deep. The
catfiesh are biting and some fine
specimens are caught They are good
eating, too, as they are the blue chan
nel cats, and they put up a fight almost
as vicionsly as a big-mouth bass.
Mystery in Shaving Day.
"Well, we are going down Intc
Southwest Washington to-night on a
visit to my sister," said a woman pas
senger on a Pennsylvania avenue cat
in the .southeast section of the citj
the other morning. She was address

Then the first woman sighed and
said: "Ton know he shaves on that
day." The talk then branched off intc
disjointed discussions as to best day
to hang out the wash and what kino
of soup to feed the children during the
hot summer days, but the two young
fellows who heard the first remark -are
wondering bow often "he" has hit

THE BEST HE COULD GET.
Amateur Gardener Could Net Under
stand Why Seeds Did Net Sprout
The woes of the amateur gardeaer
are very amusing to others, but de
cidedly real to the man who has
spoiled a suit of clothes, blistered his
hands and lost his temper in his ef
forts to make things grow.
' A young1' man, recently married,
early in the spring secured a sub
urban place, mainly with the idea of
"fresh, home-grown vegetables. Every
evening he would hurry through his
supper and rush out to his garden,
where he displayed more energy than
skill But alas! When many little
green things began to break the
ground In his neighbors' gardens, his
own remained as bare as the Sahara.
"It certainly has got me beat" he
confided to a friend at his office one
day. "I can't understand why not a
blessed thing has come up. I planted
peas and corn and tomatoes."
"Perhaps the seed were refective,"
Cie friend suggested.
'T hardly think it was that" the
gardener replied, "for I got the very
best paid 15 cents a can for them."
LIFE INSURANCE A SACRED
TRUST.
Responsibilities of Officers and Di
rectors. Evidently President Klngsley of the
New York Life Insurance company
has learned the great lesson of the
times with respect to the responsibil
ity and duty of directors of corpora
tions. Speaking to the new board of
trustees, on the occasion of his elec
tion to the presidency, he emphasized
the fact that "life insurance is more
than, a private business, that life in
surance trustees are public servants,
charged at once with the obligations
of public service and with the respon
sibilities that attach to a going busi
ness which at the same time must be
administered as a trust"
He also realizes that similar respon
sibilities rest upon the officers of the
company. "I understand," he says,
"your anxiety in selecting the men
who are day by day to carry this bur
den for you, who are to discharge this
trust In your behalf, who are to ad
minister for the benefit of the people
Involved the multitudinous and exact
ing details to which it is impossible
for you to give personal attention. My
long connection with the New York
Life covering nearly twenty years
my service In about every branch of
the company's working organization,
gives me, as I believe, a profound ap
preciation, not merely of the heavy
burden you have placed on my shoul
ders, but of the standards of efficiency,
the standards of faith, the standards
of integrity, which must be main
tained at all times by the man who
serves you and the policyholders In
this high office."
Best of all, perhaps, he feels that
words are cheap, and that the public
will be satisfied with nothing short of
performance. "My thanks, therefore,"
he continues, "for an honor which out
ranks any distinction within the reach
of my ambition, cannot be expressed
In words; they must be read out of
the record I make day by day."
PRIVILEGES OF A GENTLEMAN.
Youngster Probably Will Change Ideas
in Course of Time.
There Is a small boy in this town,
says the Baltimore American, the
son of a rather distinguished lawyer,
who has decided opinions on what
constitutes true aristocracy. One day
recently a friend called upon his
mother, and, while waiting for the
hostess, was entertained by the small
boy.
"What are you going to do when
you grow up?" was. the stereotyped
question she propounded in the effort
to start the conversation.
"Oh, I am going to smoke."
"Yes?"
"And chew."
"Oh!"
"And gamble."
"Indeed!"
"And swear."
"Really!"
"And drink corn whisky."
"And why are you going to do such
things?" asked the visitor aghast
"Oh, all southern gentlemen do
them."

COULDN'T KEEP IT.
Kept It Hid from the Children.
"We cannot keep Grape-Nuts food In
the house. It goes so fast I have to
hide it because the children love it so.
It Is just the food I have been looking
for ever so long; something that I do
not have to stop to prepare and still is
nourishing."
Grape-Nuts Is the most scientifically
made food On the market It Is per
fectly and completely cooked at the
factory and can be served at an In
stant's notice, either with rich cold
cream, or with hot milk if a hot dish
is desired. Whea milk or water is
used, a little sugar should be added,
but when cold cream is used alone
the natural grape-sugar, which can be
seen glistening on the granules, la suf
ficiently sweet to satisfy the palate.
This grape-sugar Is not poured over
the granules, as some people think,
hat exudes from the granules in the
process of manufacture, when the
starch of the grains Is changed from
starch to grape-sugar by the process
of manufacture. This, in effect Is the

NEW LAWS NOW IN EFFECT.
Bills Passed by Legislature Became
Operative July 5.
Iinooln With the exception of
'those bills passed by the legislature
carrying the emergency c;ause all of
(the laws enacted at the recent session
went into effect July 5. Even those
laws which provide they shall go Into
effect July 1, and there are three suca,
did not become operative until July 5.
This is three months after the ad
journment of the session, as provided
by the constitution. It has been held
by Attorney General Thompson this
time may be extended by legislative
action, as was done when the revenue
law was enacted, but the time can
not be shortened, except by the addi
tion of the emergency clause. The
bills which provide in themselvs they
shall go into effect July 1 are the red
gasoline can bill, the bill requiring the
owners of automobiles to take out an
annual license, and the anti-lobby law.
Some have held that the laws with
out the emergency clause go Into ef
fect July 8, as the legislature actually
adjourned April 8, but the attorney
general holds they go Into effect July
6, the date of the record adjournment.
THE RAILROAD CASES.

other Chapter to the Suits.
Lincoln Attorney General Thomp

In the petition three reasons are
advanced for remanding the cases.
They are as follows:
The federal court has no jurisdic

The court has no jurisdiction over the"
subject matter contained in the pet

LARGE LAND TRANSFER MADE:
Nearly Nine Thousand Acres Sold in
a Bunch at Alliance.
Alliance The largest transfer evez
recorded in Box Butte county and
probably containing the greatest num

transfer in the state was consummated
here when, Congressman J. P. Connei
of Dennison, Iowa, purchased of T. J.
O'Keefe, publisher of the Alliance Her
ald 6,880 acres of land located about
fifteen miles northwest of this 'city
and nine miles south of Hemingford.
The price paid was $68,800, spot cash.
The land has been used as a stock
farm by O'Keefe brothers for several
years, and is considered a very desir
able tract Over nine thousand acres
are in the entire piece, and O'Keefe
still holds ownership to about 2.500
acres. Judge Connor bought the land
for an investment, and will have sev
