WHEN ALL 1S WELL AT HOME
I met a rich man by the way, a man
with wealth. to boast;
Said I.to him: “Come tell me, pray,
what joy delights thee most?’’
What pleasure has this life to give,
what mirth or merriment
Best cheers the round of years you
live and leaves your soul ‘con
tent?’’ i
¢‘What is it makes a happy man?”
he answered with a sigh
“I’ll tell as quickly as I camn, ’tis
. something gold can’t buy.
: f
“When they are well at home,’” said
he, then I feel content;
W‘nen’ health upon their cheeks I see
- I am richer in merriment;
‘When they can dance and they can
sing and they can romp and play
When'l hear their Jaugnter ring that
is my happy day;
But when the fever burns their
cheeks, and fitfully:they sigh,
'Tis then through dreary days and
weeks a downcast man am L
: i ‘
“Though rich or poor, ’tis truth I tell,
contentment none can know
Save ’neath the roof where he may
dwell are eyes with love aglow;
The heart must join the lips that
smile, the mind must be at ease
Or pleasure has no charm worth
while which mortal man can seize
Whoe'er he be this truth he’ll find
wherever he may roam:
No man can come to peace of mind
* save all is well at home.’’

RACING OSTRICHES TO RUN
AGAINST HORSES IN BERLIN
BERLIN, July 30 (AP)—Ten I'acing|
ostriches which are to view with horses
for speed honors at a race coursc in
August have arrived in Berlin and
been placed in quarters in stables,
which appear to be very distasteful:
to the big birds.
' Top racing the ostriches are hitehedi
|to light-weight sulkeys and have their
work-outs every day when in training,
which follows the lines generally ap-l
plied to trotting or pacing horses. 'l‘he‘
ostriclies all have names and are cared
for by stable bops just as are thomugh-‘
bred horses. 1
The birds are guided by reins at-‘?
tached to leather caps which fit over
the heads of the ostriches, which take
the place of bits as used for horses. ‘
““Tony,’”’ one of the racers here
which eame from Ttaly ,and ‘‘Franz’’
owned in Vienna, are ‘‘natural born’’
racers, gecording to the ostrich racing
touts, and appear to love the sport as
mueh as their drivers, but the cther
fellows, they assert, are sort of me
chanical in their racing, merely fol
lowing directions of. their. drivers, and
without seeming to know what it is
all about. But ‘“Franz’’ and ‘‘Tony,’’
sav the drivers, know more about rae
ing than any horse which ever got
away at the post.

'HOUSEHOLD SUGGESTIONS
Common tabie salt sprinkled on
‘the outside of the discolored alumi
num pan and fubbeéd wifh'a damp
cloth will cause it to shine.
" Now iron pots and pans can be
tempered Dby filling with cold water
and heating sdowly to boiling tem
perature.. Then allow the water to
cool in the vessel.
If you are troubled with oily hair
and it readily collects all cooking
odors, dust talcam powder through
.lt and then brush thoroughly. It will
absorb the grease and take away that
disagreeahle odor at the same time,
Ceuntry folks rarely give you a
bouquet of flowers without what they
call ‘‘sealing them.”” As soon as
plucked, the ends of the stems are
dipped in boiling water. The flowers
will last much longer if this is done.
IRRIGATION WILL ENRICH
. FARMS OF NEBRASKA
SCOTTS BLUFF, Neb. Aug. 16.
(AP).—Picking up a river to drivel
its waters 6,500 feet in a tunnell
through a range of hills that would
be called mountains were it not for
their location close to higher peaks,
: is what the government reclamation
service is doing here in western
Nebraska in order to bring irriga
tion to the Roubadeau and upper‘
Gering valleys. Arid regions are to |
be transformed into fertile farm
ing lands.
A point 8 miles west of Scotts
Bluff mountain is the scene of ac
tion. Here the waters of the Fort
Laramie canal are to be diverted
from the north Platte river and thus
bring to realization the dream and
labor of settlers for many years
past.
The tunnel, known as ‘“Number
Three,” already has been bored
through, but approximazeiy 9,200
cubic yards of concrete, reinforced
by structural steel, will be required
before it iis ready for the flow of
water, which is expected to start
next spring. Digging proceeded from
each side of the hill and the two
ends of the tunnel were joined at
the center with a variation laterally
of only one-eighth of an inch. In
grade, the ends were off less than
one-half an inch.

BRIT'SH CLERGYMAN ATTACKS
CALLING AS BULL AND TRIVAL
LONDON, Aug. 1. (AP) The reason
for the shortage of clergvimen in the
Church of England was deseribed in
what he called ‘‘“plain, blunt and even
brutal language’’ by the Rev. N. P.
Willinms during a sermoi®he preached
recently at Holborn,
‘“The work of a clergyman is, in a
great part, of a dull, trivial kind,’’ he
said, ““It consists mainly in the sing
ing of choral offices which eould be
well rendered by a moderately efficient
gramophone. The personality of the
typicel clergyman, developed by ex
clusive association with women and
children, represents the sort of thing
that no self-respecting bhoy wants to
grow into.”’
Mrs. Grace Rogers sister of Paul J
Rainey, the well known hunter, has
presented twenty-six thousand acres
of land in Louisana to the National
Audubon Socities together with a large
endowment for the boarding of hun
dreds of millions of wild duck every
winter. It is to be known as the Paul
J. Rainey wild life sanctuary.

BERLIN, Aung. 1 (AP)-~There are a
lot of master bakers of Germany in jail
for decreasing the size of their loaves
of bread last year and inereasing the
selling price, This fact eame to light
here during the annual convention of
the German Association of Master
Bakers, when -a movenment was
launched to ll’ing about the release
of the imprisoned members,
It was decided to ask the gnvern
ment to grant an amnesty for ail the
bakers who got into trouble during the
dnflation period when the ““hakers
themselves had great diffienltios in
making both ends meet and’often did
not know from where their next meal
was coming,’’
Sixty per cent of the guests of the
Clifton Hotel at Niagara Falls are
horeymooners. The general manager
——
says the ydon’t eat much of anything
and those who do eat ddon’t ecare what
they eat. They are the easiest peo
