Abraham Lincoln. Another Haunted House Klamath Better Baby Movement The Fate Of A Nation Lies Therein What, in the progress of humanity, could be more vital than the care of babies? How hard some Ameri can mothers try, as all mothers certainly should try, with in their qualifications, to make good mothers, by their earnest, but oft misguided efforts, to properly care for the infant. Yet. Klamath Falls doctors say. it is surprising how little mothers know about babies and their care. This is even more astounding because of the facility with which expert governmental literature can be secured regarding the baby; both before and after birth. All this in ad dition to being under the doctor's care. A remarkable effort is being made by the local county health unit officials in the better baby movement, that has been instituted here during the past month. True, it is entirely in accord with their line of duty, these baby clinics that have been held throughout the far corners of th Klamath country. But it has been with a great deal of diligence and perseverance that 'the local officials have conducted their work. Their efforts have not been without accomplishment. In many an instance, slight defects have been dis?overed in infants over the county that can, throug'. - ititch in time, be remedied. The local he'alth i:u:t Its shown unusual zeal in its work.

It was on September 27, 1825, that the Stockton & Darlington railway in England was thrown open to operation under an act that provided for hauling of wagons and other carriages upon the line "with men or horses or otherwise." "Otherwise" was the loophole which allowed George Stephenson, engineer of the road, and an experimenter with -steam engines, to persuade his company to use a steam locomotive to haul its first train. That train, with its prophetic load of coal, flour and passengers, moved at an average rate of eight miles an hour. Only a few years after the opening of the world's first railroad, in England, our own nation took up the novelty, with what result you all can recognize today. Railroads, it seemed, were exactly what the vast land areas of this country needed. The United States today is, above all others, a railroading nation. The people of our country owe more to the railroads than the people of most countries do, because the greater part of our exist ence and growth as an independent nation has been coin cident with the railway era. Today, with only about one sixteenth of the world's land area, we possess in this coun try approximately one-third of the total railway mileage of the world, and our railroads lead those of all other nations in the high quality and low cost of their service. Our nation today is the richest and mot advanced nation of the world. It has become so largely because it has enjoyed for nearly a century a form of transporta tion excellently adapted to its great distances and its wide variety of products. Because of cheap and efficient railway transportation, available in all parts of the coun try, the products of all regions today are to be obfained in every region. The products of every region can be and are marketed in all regions. Passengers are moved long distances with great rapidity. 1 o There is no slackening of demand, in sight, for the last six months of the year, and price advances are predicted. lie man who denounces capital .- em-. ,... objects if the curse comes home to roost.

The Best of Advice By IT A It K KINNAUtl) ITS YOl'R OWV STORY There Is a beautiful theory, i preached by 'Emerson, that there Is one mind common to nil indi vidual men. 'Every man Is an inlet lo the same and to all the same," be said. "He that is onca admitted to the right of reason I mado a free man of the whole estate. "What Plalo has thought, he may think; "What a saint has felt, he may feel; "What at any time has befallen any man. he can understand. "Who hath access to this uni versal mind is a party to all that is or can be done, for this Is th? only and sovereign agent." . Of the works of this mind, his tory is the record. Its genius is Illustrated by the entire series of years, months, weeks, days, hours, miuutes, sec onds. And thus it is said that man is explicable by nothing less than all his history. If we believe w ith Kmerson that there is one mind common to all men. then we believe that without hurry, without rest, the human spirit goes forth from the begin- ! ning to embody every faculty, ev- ' ery thought, every emotion which belongs to It, in appropriate events. "Always the thoiiEht Is prior to th foot," Emerson said. "All the facts of history pre exist in the mind as laws. "Kach law In turn is made by circumstances predominant, and the limits of nature give power to but one nt a lime." A man Is the whole encyclope dia of facts. The creation of a thousand for ests in In one ncorn. And llahylnn. Kgypt, Greece, nnmn, fintil, Britain, America, lie folded in the first man. Kpoch nfter epoch nre merely the application of man's manifold spirit to Ihe manifold world. "Tho world exists for t ho 'edu- t cation of each man. served. , There Is no ape or s!aie of so , riety or mode of action In history to which there is, not somewhat ! corresponding In his life If you wjuld know yourself, read history.

YESTERDAY'S PUZZLE V V ANSWKHKI). A tourist lo the mountains of Tennessee once had dinner with a querulous old mountaineer who yarned about hard times for fif teen minutes at a stretch. "Why, man." said tho tourist, "you ought to bp able to make lots of money shipping green corn to the northern market. "Yes, I orler." was the sullen reply. "You have the Inml. I suppose, nnd inn get the seed." "Yes. 1 guess so." "Then why don't you go Into tho speculation?" "No use, stranger," sadly re plied the cracker, "the old woman Is too luy to do the plowln' and plantln'."
