Ihe general hospital bill, appro priating $17,000,000. which ai aigned by the ,ireident yesterday, authorize the directori of the veterans bureau to accept just uch Kiiti at the Grand Island soldiers home, which includes a section of land within its environs. i lu: entire Xehra.ska delegation in congress joined in a letter to Direc tor Forbes asking hint to favorably consider the tender of the home at Grand Maud, which Mr. McClellan was authorized to make on behalf of the Mate through an act of the legi-.lature, the several veterans a ociations. and the citizens of Grand Island. There are several soldiers homes in dificrent parts of the country operated by states and this movement on the part of Nebraska will encourage a like movement on the part of other states that have hospitals and homes for such pur poe. The new plan, it Js believed, will save a vast amount of money to the iedcral government in the purchase of Sites and the erection of build ings for purposes of taking care of the veterans of all our wars, cither through hospitalization or through proper housing. According to Con gressman Anderson, who is the lather of this new scheme,, the plan will utilize the homes that have been constructed for confederate soldiers as well as those of the union army The states having made the donation and the federal government having assumed the responsibility for the care of the homes, the states will be relieved of all responsibility in the maintenance of these institutions. irrigation nans . Near Completion Survey of Eastern Portion of Project Will Be Finished f in Three Weeks . Ogallala, Xeb., April 21. (Special.1) ork is proercssinjr raoidlv on the Keith, Deuel and Perkins county ir rigation project. In the west end of the procct seven large reservoirs .have been surveyed which will hold enough water to irrigate about 60.000 acres or land. 1 he survey of the inairi line : canals connecting these reservoirs will-, be completed this week.' The east end of the? project, which takes in eastern Keith county and western Lincoln county, will be sur veyed in the next three weeks, and it is estimated that storage capacity to irrigate another' 60,000 will be found in this locality. -,, .The farmers are becoming creatlv enthused over the prospects of a moderate-priced and successful irrt gation system. There has been much doubt in the minds of many of the land owners as to whether or not there is storage capacity enough to give everyone wafer who is desirous of putting it on their, lands. Within the next 60 days the engineers will he able to tell the farmers exactly how much the complete . irrigation project will cost per acre. If it v ui- in price mere is no doubt but what a permauent ir rigation association will be organized aim oonas issued . ana the firotcct completed within the next" couple of years. The less conservative' of those interested estimate the cost at ap proximately $25 to $30 an acre. - Woman, Scorned, Betrays Alleged World Crook .New York, April 21.

Mi Thomas two year ago won first prize in a hotly contested bath inir review here. "Robbed hair is all right." Miss Thomas said. "And so are short skirts, rollcd-down stockings, low waists and rouge and powder. I believe in all of them. I bobbed my ouu hair because my head ached from carrying the load. It is just as sensible to have your hair bobbed as it is to have your tonsile or teeth re moved, or to have our appendix put in a bottle. As for short skirts--do men wear cumbersome clothing? Don't they dress just as comfortably as possible? I've never seen a man letting his morals interfere with his personal comfort I , Favora Wine and Beer. .Tin in favor of restoring light wine and beer." Nobody ever got 'he d. t.'s drinking light wine or beer but I've seen incu, after taking one drink of the mulc-pOwcr whisky they serve today in our best homes go out on the street and try to sell passers by pieces of Great Britain for 10 cents each. There are institutes all over the country which thought they d have to close their doors when prohibition came, and today they are enlarging their quarters to handle the former drinkers of light wines and beer. "There is no reason why women should not enter politics. Men want them everv place else why not in public oft'fee? The only men I've ever heard say that women have no brains are those who are married to women who have enough brains to save sufficient money out of house- I I n. AvXt 1 IS-'.

A wpinau is. Nine out of every 10 women when they land a responsible position take their work to heart and give their best. I think women arc butter savers than men: they have to be because up until now they've had to be content with what man gave them and in most cases it's been mighty About Campaign. Miss Thomas is serious about her campaign. She says so herself. She isn't just seeking notoriety. "I've had a good chance to study men and I like most of them," she said. "They are like little children, though. You can't boss them, but you can coax them. They like to be mothered. They never grow up. They like to be relieved of responsi bilities. In fact, I wouldn't be a bit surprised it in another 50 years the mcu, through sheer relief, would turn over the affairs of the universe to be conducted by women and I'm almost ready to say that I believe the universe would move along more smoothly under such conditions!

How can a girl of 14 who, though interested " in poetry, enjoys only sentimental verse, be helped to see and take .pleasure in all kinds of poetry? ' In order to love great literature, we must read it, not read about it. So, if you desire your daughter to care for the best poetry, read it with her, and try to interest her in the rhythm and the thought, as well as in the story. If you persist in read ing only the best, the interest in the poorly written and morbid kind will disappear of itself, crowded out by ing the method of a Frenchman, Nicholas Appert. Napoleon Offered Prize. Napoleon offered a orize to the oer son who evolved the best method of preserving food for his armies, and this prize was won by Appert. It is interestine to' know that while his methods won this prize, and are now used in millions of homes and can ning factories, he died in poverty. In some strange manner the can ning and preserving of food has be come a science in the United States, but was not adopted in France and one of the duties of the American committee is teaching French house wives the methods invented by a Frenchman. The canning units of the committee have done a splendid job in France, and have saved lives through enabling the present population toT store up food for the winjer. All Expensea Paid. . The winning candidates in the con test will receive a trip to France with all expenses paid. Four weeks will be spent on French soil, in addition to the trip across the Atlantic and re turn. The delegation will sail from New York the morning of July 22. Address all communications to the Good Will Editor. RCLES OF THE COSIEST. 1.
