Almost a Nuisance : Once in a while Union county has a visitor who lives in the stars or dwells in the house of scientific research, and to be truth ful these chaps are almost as much of a nuisance as the fellow who continually brings in statistics on some ceKuin subject. Statistic mills me plentiful. You can jjet statistics for anything., Whether they are correct is of little consequence, justso they are statistics. Of late we have heard considerable discussion about the good old summer Uh givinir way in a couple of years to icicles and snow banks in July. Thes? assertions come from a fellow who has gone dippy studying things which other people never think of, hence lit becomes an "authority" right away. Subsidence of the continents beneath the seas aiid the drowning of the races is the latest scientific guess as to the end of the world - -some 25,000,1)00 year hence. For this last, much thanks. ' There still renuiins to man plenty of lime in which to enjoy hiroscii and to" gut something out of life. ' In the meantime, he w ill doubtless be treated to many variations of theory i3 to the end-all Only a few weeks ago scientists solemnly gave warning of an end ing by drought, with seas receding and hind becoming too arid and . torrid for existence. L'etween being dried out and being drowned there may not bt much choice, but there is wide range of difference. In betweer there is room for innumerable variations, and beyond there is roorr for even wilder fancies and guesses. It seems that scientific alarm ists can not long remain silent on this subject. Very often prophet; rise up to forecast the end. Many have been so rash as to cas! their disaster for an early date, and accordingly have been dis credited by failure. Later prophets have generally adopted the safer rule of fixing tfic end-all at some remote time. Now that this warning has beoi issued, the woild public may get set for the next guess, which wil not be long in coming if scientific alarmists keep up theii prophetic gait. OFFICE CAT r.

Tanner, whose recent inventions in the saw mill world have brought safety to men vlu formerly held hazardous jobs and some of his inventions hi.vf alrio decreased cot of production to the lumler nianufactiucr. t lie did not dti this in a day, but he worked on the idea for i number of years, finally getting out what seems now to be a per footed machine, but aa a matter of fact it is only the crude idei us yet. Men who use the Tanner inventions will aid in perfecting them,-just as the men who u.se linotypes have perfected th:.i machine. George Pullman's fii'st Pullman sleeping cur was so crude thai hatchet and nails had to be used in making up the berths. - Pullman's friends, who took the fiir.t trip, awakened uexi moin ing, fiigged out and aching as if they had been pri.e-fightinj.' all night. After that first trip, which still is remembered vividly by many now living, Pullman's idea was a source of merriment. ,; All inventions and ideas are crude when they are born. NV matter how brilliant your new idea, infinite patience is needed alpng with much burning of midnight oil before the crude idea i: evolved into polished near-perfection. The rounded corners of Pullman car vestibules were conceives by a porter, lie had wearied of being the target for the wrath of passi iigi s w ho hud uU'upk violently on the former sharp corn eu v hen the tiaiii louuded a curve. ' 'Porters foi many years patiently took the kicks of passenger.-1 try. who had their clothes splashed with water that hnched out oi Pullman aw wash-basins. rlhen a porter got the idea of project i.ng the top edges of the wash-basins inward, so that the wat.M was not apt to lurch out, no matter how roughly the train rode.

The man who uses a device knows moit about it than the man who originated it. Nearly every contrivance that we use in civilization is the result of combined effoit of thousands of minds. All humans have the creative instinct, the desire to build and impiove. Alan is the tool of a great creative force that is at work aP through the universe. The only life that is really worth while is throne that contrib utes to the progress of humanity. That is the real success.
