ALL KINDS OF PROVISIONS RETAIN CONTROL OF SELF
Truthful Traveler Explains How Sail-
ors Were Enabled to Alleviate
the Pangs of Hunger.
He wus describing tho prlvatlon.8 of
s voynge from which ho had Just re-
turned. "Then" he snld "1 went down to
the cublti to lunch."
"Lunch 1" exclaimed one of his hear-
ers. "Hut you told us there wns noth-
ing to cut left on board. What did
you have for lunch?"
"Oh!" was the reply "It wns n very
modest nffnlr beef wine iind an egg."
"llcef ?" Where did you got the beef
from?"
"Oil I was the reply "that came
from tho bulwarks."
"And the wine how nbout that?"
"Oil Unit came from the porthole 1"
"Oh oh!" laughed tho listener
"flood ery goodl Hut tell me where
did you get the egg?"
"Oh Hint was the klinplest of nlll"
came the reply. "Tho cnptnln gave or-
ders for the Milp to May to' und he

The Other Side of It
The Lndy Why do they call tho
class of men you belong to trnmps?
The Hobo I guess It's 'cause we re-
fuses ter do n fiOcent Job fer a 15-
cent handout mu'iim.
Without That It Is Unreasonable to
Think One Has the Ability to
Control Others.
The other day n man who mnkes bis
living by fighting wns struck by on
undersized man mid Instead of return-
ing the blow he wntked uwuy from bis
diminutive assailant.
This man exhibited much more self
control tliuii the majority of people.
Men who class the.nselves lis belug
on u higher plane than this lighting
man would have mixed Immediately
with the hot-headed Individual.
What would you have done?
The chances lire that you would have
rushed at the fellow with nil your
might; you would have permitted your
savage Instincts to rule you.
This proves that you have not as
much power ns you should have oer
your Impulses.
You may boss other rcople but you
are not boss of yourself.
Maybe you wonder why others are
forging iihetid of you us lenders of
men.
It Is because they hnvc n check rein
on themselves. They luivo schooled
themselves that they may be nblu to
guide others. Self-control Is the at-
tribute of u lender. Chicago American.
Road Drag It Essential In Putting
Roads In Good Condition.
many miles of roada during tho last
winter mado In tho lato fall that
were all but Impassablo practically
all winter.
A now road mado In tho lato fall
can hardly help but be rough all
winter. This kind of road meanB a
lot moro wear on tho auto a higher
nasollno nxpenso and a very much
Itcneral wear on tho car. It also
lL'enns that tho farmer cannot haul
nearly as heavy a loud with his team
and a quicker wearing out of tho
wagon.
In tho rural districts a lot of road
work Is dono by voters working out
their poll tax. This work Is gener-
ally dono when they can best sparo
tho time which is in tho fall. If
tho men who do this work would
consult their best Interests wq bo-
llovo they would arrange to do It
in tho summer even If It wcro not so
convenient and It cost them more.
Itoad overseers who havo this work
In chargo can help In this lino moro
than anyone else. If they will but try
a lot of this work now dono In tho fall
can bo dono when it should be. This
official Bhould look moro to good roads
than to his own convenience. Twen-
