Told In a Few Words.
An Englishman had bought through
an agent an estate In the northern
Highlands, and when summer came
he went to lr pect It. One part of his
Journey was by coach, and ho thought
to get some Information about the
place from tho driver. So after some
preliminaries: "You mny know a
place called Cloch na Kilty?" "I do
that." "And what do you think of the
place?" "I will not be thinking
much." "Oh! Toll me what you
think." "If ye were to see the de'll
tethered there ye'd say, 'Pulr brute!' "
Strain Was Too Great.
"Heah about Chawlie?"
"No. What's wrong with him?"
"Brain tevah."
"My word! What caused it?"
"Trying to roll a cigarette in a high
wind."
Its Advantage.
"I want to get a certificate of mem
bership In a Wanderlust club."
"Well, that is one society where you
can be In good standing when you get
your walking papers."
SELF DELUSION.
Many People Deceived by Coffee.
We like to defend our indulgencies
and habits even though we may bo
convinced of their actual harmfulness.
A man can convince himself that
whlBkey Is good for him on a cold
morning, or beer on a hot summer day
when he wants the whiskey or beer.
It's the same with coffee. Thou
sands of people suffer headache and
norvousness year after year but try to
persuade themselves the cause Is not
coffee because they like coffee. "
"While yet a child I commenced
UBing coffee and continued it," writes
a Wis. man, "until I was a regular
coffee fiend. I drank It every morning
and in consequence had a blinding
headache nearly every afternoon.
"My folks thought It was coffee that
ailed me, but I liked it and would not
admit It was the cause of my trouble,
so I stuck to coffoe and the headaches
tuck to me.
"Finally, the folks stopped buying
coffee and brought home some Postum.
Thoy made it right (directions ou
Pkg.) and told me to see what differ
ence it would make with my head, and
during that first week on Postum my
old affliction did not bother me once.
From that day to this we have used
nothing but Postum In place of coffee
headaches are a thing of the past
and the whole family la in fine health."
"Postum looks good, smells good,
tastes good, Is good, and does good to
the whole body."

HELPS RURAL LIFE
SECRETARY HOUSTON'S PLAN
ROUSING INTEREST ALL
OVER COUNTRY.
IS
FARMERS' WIVES ARE AIDING
Fifty Thousand Have Sent Suggestions
on Improving Conditions and These
Are Being Applied by Depart
ment of Agriculture.
By GEORGE CLINTON.
Washington. Wives of the farmers
of the land to the number of 00,000
have responded by letter to the re
quest of the agricultural department
that they tell of home life In the coun
try and make suggestions as to what
the department can do to Improve
conditions, and to make the rural lite
more attractive for all the members
of the household. Secretary Houston
Is taking a deep interest In the an
swers which have come to the de
partment's query and he has read
scores of them personally, whllo the
others have been read for study pur
poses by officials high in tho depart
ment. Recently the secretary of agricul
ture let it be known through the pub
licity bureau that he wished to nuiko
his department useful, not only to the
farmer, but to the others of the house
hold. Tho women were asked to
write and they responded quickly and
readily and In nearly every case, In
telllgently. It Is the intention of the
government's agricultural officials to
prepare and send out bulletins of in
struction and Information to the ru
ral housewives of the country telling
them how they can llghtnn their la
bors, shorten their hours of wofk,
make their homos attractive, save
monov and make monoy and after
doing it all find that they have left
time for rest, reading and bodily
recreation.
Exchange of Advice,
Already the farriers' wives of the
country have received from the gov
ernmcnt's advisory bureau housekeep
ing, food-preparing, fruit-preserving
and other Instructions which on tho
face of things seems to mark Secre
tary Houston as a teacher of high
standine In the domestic arts. It is
probable that the secretary of agricul
ture will be the first ono to put the
credit where It belongs. The women
have done it Advice from Alabama
today Is being applied to California
and advice from California is being
applied in Alabama, and put any other
two states In the places of those
named and the same thing holds true
Before long It 1b the Intention of
the department to prepare plans for
the construction and proper arrango
ment of farm houses. They will vary
In detail "geographically." The same
plans will not serve for a Florida
farmhouse that will serve for one in
Oregon. Convenience and comfort
will be consulted with a view to tho
adaptation of the house to the special
needs of the family of a farmer.
It Currency Law Prize or Blank?
Now that the currency bill has
become a law, the natural and
perhaps apprehensive 1 question be
romps Is it to work good or 111 to
the banking and tho general buBl-
nesa interests of the country? Does
one seem to put the plane of tntelll
gence low when he says that, with
the exception of half a dozen senators
and representatives who have spokon
directly to the point, no one can bo
found in the capital city, outside of
those who speak enthusiastically sim
ply because they are partisans, will
lng to give a specific answer to the
question concerning the business re
sults of the new currency law?
The solemn truth is that apparently
no man understands currency to its
roots. Finance is a question which
has been the subject of controversy
for hundreds, yes, even thousands of
years. There aro as many views on
the proper way to make a sound cur
rency as there are men able to express
any view at all. Of the witnesses who
appeared before the committees sit
ting In consideration of the currency
measure, only one or two were willing
to prophesy actual dlBUBter as tho re
sult of the passage of the bill and only
a few are willing to declare as a cer
tainty that specific benefit would come
from its enactment During the debate
on the tariff bill which is now the law
there were plenty of Republicans In
both houses willing to prophesy dla
aster to the business Interests of the
country because of the cut In customs.
The tariff was a familiar subject.
Few Even Pretend to Know.
During the debates on the currency
bill, many of the Republicans "sat
speechless." Others, braver, spoke
tbelr minds, but those who thus spok
were few In number. Wh'y was there
reticence on currency and gllbness on
the tariff? The reason Is as slmplo as
a primer. There are not more than
ten men In the bouse and senate who
understand currency matters and all
except the ten who understand, or
who think they understand, were will
ing to keep quiet, lest they show their
Gaelic Tongue.
The Gaelic language was once spok
en by a considerable number of the
human race In the British isles, the
Islo of Man, northern France and
Spain. There Is evidence that the
Gaelic branch of the Celtic breed was
widespread. For instance, It is main
tained by some excellent authorities
that the Cimbrl, who threatened at
one time to overwhelm Rome, and
who were Btopped by Marius. were
of Gaollo speech. The ancient lan
guage Is found today In the Isle of
Man, Wales, the Highlands of Scot
land, western Ireland and In Brlt
any, northern France.
Leadleia Glaze Unknown.
Englishmen demand "leadlcss glaze"
when they buy pottery, for leadlcss
glaze does not poison the pottery
workers. We In America do not ask
for it In the china shops most of us
have never heard of it. Yet Dr. Alice
Hamilton's study for the federal bu
reau of labor shows how serious a
j form of lead poisoning is the disease
contracted by workers In American
lotteries, says the Survey. All table
Ignorance or predict something .ulch
might not be fulfilled.
As far as the congress of the Tutt
ed States Is concerned, the currency
law 1b an experimental measure. Sen
ators and representatives know what
the banking Interests have said in fa
vor of the bill and against It. They
realize that the "doctors" disagree and
If the doctors disagree how can the
layman decide?
President Wilson's currency meas
ure will not come Into full operation
for some time. In Washington Us re
sults are looked upon much as were
the results of the drawings of the old
Louisiana lottery. It may be major
prize legislation, it may be minor prize
legislation, or It may be blank legisla
tion representing the loss of all the
energy which was put Into Its passage
plus the loss of business stability.
Wilson 8eem Confident.
So It Is that the currency measure,
over the passage of which a sigh of
relief wont up because it brings with
It cessation of congressional labors
and a surcease of present sorrows,
will become the law of the land and
go Into operation without any definite
knowledge, so far as Washington of
ficials are concerned, as to whether It
Is to "do" the country or to do some
thing for the country.
President Wilson seemingly Is sure
that money will be easier, that Wall
street will not get its "hog'B share" In
times of stress, that stability under
lies the law In every one of its classes,
and yet Mr. WIIbou may be mistaken.
He admitted before tho bill was Intro
duced that he did not understand the
currency question thoroughly. Has
he been ablo to master It In three
months? Other men who have stud
ied money and its ramifications
through th avenues of peace for
years are ready to confess today that
they are still groping. The law is to
go Into operation. There will be no
more surprise In Washington at Its
failure to do what It Is Intended to do
than at Its success. . On currency
mattcra the lawmakers have been
guessing and now after all the weeks
of debating It can still be said that
perhaps one man's guess is as good
as another's.
Remarkable Work In Alaska.
L4ut. Col. Wilds P. Richardson,
United .States army, chairman of
the board of road commissioners
for Alaska, has come "out of the
wilderness" to Washington to report
at headquarters. Colonel Richard
son and his fellow road builders, Lieut
Glen Edgerton, corps of engineers;
and Lieutenant Louis A. Kuuzlg, Thir
tieth United States infantry, have su
perintended the construction and have
attended to tho details of administra
tion of a government road which runs
from Valdez near tho coast to the town
of Fairbanks, and over which in the
bu miner time automobiles find easy
passage.
Perhaps when ono reads this short
statement of road construction the
task appears to be nothing phenome
nal, but it must bo remembered that
this road which the army officers
planned, laid out and built runs
through 400 miles of what is virtually
a wilderness. The natural difficul
ties which are overcome seemingly
were enough to dishearten the hardi
est and most resourceful of men, but
the road has been built and it has cost
the government $1,000 a mile Icbs than
the estimate made by engineers who
went over the proposed road nine
years ago.
This government road, which has
opened up Alaska to wagon traffic In
summer and to tho traffic of mall
Blelghs and other "sledding vehicles"
In the winter, cost $2,500 a mllo to
build. Army engineers fixed tho pros
pective amount of expenditure at $3.
COO a mllo. The road today is as good
as the ordinary country road and If
the government chooBes to expend an
additional $1,000 for each mile of con
struction, which the engineers recom
mended, it can be made one of the
model roads of the country.
Hardest Kind of a Job.
There Is a plan at present for tho
government to build railroads In
Alaska to be owned and possibly to
be operated by Undo Sam. It Is said
In Washington that If tho govern
ment's railroad shall be constructed as
well and as economically as the wag
on road which Colonel Richardson
and his associates have Just com
pleted, the tax payers of the country
and tho travelers who use the rail
way well may be satisfied with gov
ernment work. Road building In
Alaska Is a hard task. All sorts of
conditions must be met Landslides,
torrents, glacial action and a variety
of assortment of problems, to the lay
man seemingly impossible o fsolutlou,
confront the builders at Intervals all
along the line of constructed. For
years Colonel Richardson has been at
his work, and last fall with his col
leagues he made the trip over the new
roadway the whole distance from
Fairbanks to Valdez In an auto truck.
Lieutenant Colonel Richardson, who
has Bpent so muny years in the gov
ernment service In Alaska, 1b a sturdy
Texan. He graduated from the United
States military academy in 18S4.
