UNCLE SAM POOR EMPLOYER

cf Big Corporations.
The American people are ex-
tremely generous employers when
the compensation of an expert or-
ganizer, or administrator of a great
money-earning enterprise is to be
dccidod; but they are exceedingly
niggardly employers when the mat-
ter of conducting the affairs of their
own government officers is involved.
A salary of $50,000 is promptly vot-
ed by the directors and stockholders
of an important bank or railroad,

dividends and surplus requirements,
then |s no breath" of complaint or
criticism. It is, in short, only nec-
essary to "make good/' In the gov-
ernment service, on the contrary, ex-
cept a few men in the customs serv-
ice, but three administrative officials
.below the rank of cabinet officer re-
ceive a salary as high as $8,000. In-
cluding the customs service, there
are les* than two hundred permanent
administrative positions under the
government which carry a salary of
over $80 per week. Of course it
cannot be expected that the great ad-
ministrators of banks and manufac-
turing and public-service corpora-
tions wifl give favorable considera-
tion to federal positions of uncertain
tenure. carrying compensation

Treasurer Report.
The Lover—Fickleness! She's
still chewing dc gum 1 gave her
an' she's forgot she knows inc!
Saturday afternoon, late, when
Gu* Winkler was getting ready
toatitrt for his home near Chries-
rnan, he walked out. on the wag-
on tmiyruo to adjust the reins,
and in returning the horses
moved and his foot sliped ofT
ttm tongue throwing him on the
double tree nnd one of the stav
chains. This caused the ten m U
ran away from where t hey were
astanding on the court house
aqoaro to the corner a t Stone &
Hitdisock's where they were
«topped by citizens and by Mr.
Winkler himself who never turn-
ed loose his hold on the reins.
He was thrown to the gtound
and run over liy a front wheel
and was bruised and cat about
«he right arm and hod other
ferniseff but after his] injuries
dressed lie went back to
eraron and returned hone
the team himself. It
aeeoii a miracle, almost, that he
nan not either killed or seriously
hurt. Yr. Winkler is a confeuer
•ta veteran with many friends
wherever kflown who nro g'nd
lis was not inoro seriously in-
lured.
DIET FOR WARM WEATHER.
lied meats may be omitted for a
fortnight if there is a tendency to
skin eruptions. Lamb, fish and
chicken, raw eggs ami buttermilk
make a nourishing spring diet when
combined with fresh vegetables, or-
anges and grajtc fruit and light sal-
ade.
l)o not overdo physically. Get a
change of air for even a few days;
if not, do not fight languor to the
point of not resting. Lie down in
the day and go to bed earlier.
Have plenty of fresh air in your
rooms, let the sunlight flood them
and sit outdoors. Don't stop exer-
cising. Take brisk walks and rest
afterward.

CARRYING HIS FLY PAPER.
A seat near the radiator was the
only one vacant in the waiting room
of the Union depot when an old man
caine in carrying several packages.
He laid all hi* bundles beside the
■eat, then he picked up one, a long,
square package, and looked about in
perplexity.
"I don't dars get this near those
rteam pipes," he explained to the
usher. "You see, it's fly paper, and
the directions say to keep in a cool
place.
"I got it to take with me to Mex-
ico. I wasn't sure I could get any
there, and I wanted to be prepared.
Flies bother me and I like to swat
my share of them."
