LOOK PLEAS AWT.
The world is taking your
photograph—look pleasant! Of
course you have your troubles
you cannot tell the policeman. A
whole lot of things bother you,
of course. Business worries, or
domestio sorrows, it may be, or
whBt not. You'll find life a rug-
ged road, whose stones hurt your
feet. Nevertheless, cheer up! It
may be your real disease is sel-
fishness-in-grown selfishness.
Your life is so centered; you
imagine your tribulations are
worse than others bear. You
feel sorry for yourself—the mean-
est sort of a pity. It is a pa-
thetic illusion; so rid yourself of
it and cheer up!
What right have you to carry
a pioture of your woe begone
face funeral ways about among
your fellows who have troubles
of their own? If you must whine
or sulk or growl, go to the woods
or unfrequented lanes; but better
yet, oheer up! Your ills are
largely imaginary. If you really
were on the brink of bankruptcy,
or if there were no thoroughfares
through your eorrowa, you would
clear your brows, set your teeth
and make the best of it; so cheer
up. You are borrowing trouble
and paying a high rate of in-
terest, and all by not cheering
up In a ten minute's walk you
may see a score of people worse
off than you, and here you are
digging your own grave and
playing pall bearer into the bar-
gain. You must play your own
part; smile, even though it be
through your own tears—which
speedily dry—and cheer up

Women in Business.
A large portion of the office
work of the large corporations is
done by women, and it has been
demonstrated that in a great
many respect^ they are superior
to men, The^e is hardly a busi-
ness of any magnitude that does
not employ from one to hundreds
of women as stenographers, b >ok
keepers and in a great many in
stances as managers of depart
menta, They are quick, ac
curate, reliable, and do their
work, as a rule, more neatly than
a man. They are especially
adapted for stenographic work,
and there is a steadily increasing
demand for rapid, accurate and
thoroughly reliable young ladies
who can write shorthand rapidly,
and transcribe their notes neatly
and accurately on the typewriter
The salaries of these young la<
dies range from $30 to S100 per
month according to their ability.
It is an honest and pleasant em
ployment and some of the most
refined and cultured young wo
men in the country have made
stenography a profession.
The Louisville & Nashville
railroad announces that from now
on it will discontinue the practice
of issuing passes to publio offi
oials, city, county and state.
General Counsel Stowe says he
is desirous of breaking up the
system of influencing publio
officials by means of passes. If
Mr. Stowe is oorrectly quoted he
has given proof of the contention
that passes are given to public
offioials for the purpose of in
flusncing their actions. In this
respect a pass is a bribe, and it
is difficult to see how any public
offioial can otherwise consider it

The Lunalic's Explanation.
I met a young widow with a
grown step-daughter and the
widow married me, then my
father who was a widower, met
my step daughter and married
her, that made my wife the
mother-in-law of her father-in-
law and my step daughter my
mother, and my father my step
son; then my step mother, the
step daughter of my wife had a
son; of course my brother, be-
cause he was my father's son, he
was also the son of my wife's
step daughter and therefore
grandson.
Then my wife had a son. My
mother-in law the step sisters
son is also its grand mother be-
cause he is her step son's child;
ray father is the brother-in-law
of my child because his step sis-
ter is my wife; I am the brother
of my own son who is also the
son of my step grand mother, I
am my mother's brother in law,'
my wife is the child's aunt, my
son is my nephew and I am my
own grand father.
After trying to explain the re- j
lationship some seven times for a
fortnight, I was brought here—I
came of my own will —Ex.
Suits have been instituted by
Attorney General R. L. Rogers,
at Little Rock, under the new
anti-trust law of Arkansas. The
defendants are the German Al-
liance Insurance company and
the Hartford Insurance company
of Hartford, Conn., which are al-
leged to have transacted business
in that state since the new law
became effective last Friday, and
to have violated the anti-trust
compact clauses of the act. The
complaint concludes with a re-
quest for judgement of $5000
against each company and that
the defendants' rights to do busi*
ness in Arkansas be declared
forfeited.

Lewis E. Smith and Arthur

President Roosevelt is now on
Texas soil and is being royally en-
tertained by generous, courageous,
big-hearted Texas hombres in all
parts of the State, all of which is
right and just. The president of a
great country like America is en-
titled to distinguished consideration
at the hands of its citizenship.
Nearly 1,003 miles of railroad
were built in Oklahoma in 1904,
or 978 more miles of new road
oonetruoted than in all the New
England States.

Missouri has more livestock
farmers than any other State in
the Union. Its livestock is worth
200 million dollars. While it has
only 4 1-2 per oent of the live-
stock of the country, it has 5 per
cent of the total value of livestock
in the United States, a striking:
commentary on the high quality
of Missouri livestook.
if any other agricultural State
can show a better record than
this the Jayhawkers would like
to know it: In 36 oounties in
Kansas there is not a single in*
mate in the poorhouse, and in 10
counties there has not been a
prisoner in jail during the past
year.
David Rankin, Missouri's bo-
nanza cattle feeder, recently
bought 920 acres of Iowa land.
He now owns 3,500 acres in Fre-
mont county, Iowa., and 23,000
acres in Atchison county, Mis-
souri. And yet the claim is ad-
vanced that cattle feeding doea
not pay.
Statistics, supplemented by es-
timates where statistics were not
available, show that the average
cash income of the 180,000 far-
mers of Kansas is $2,000 a year.
