Nebraska a Battlefield Where Enormous Wealth Is Annually Destroyed.
Emergency Currency Issued by the Bank of England of the Most Severely Plain Description.
Edgae Walts, Publisher
One of the most fascinating exhibits in the University building at the fair is the collection of glass cases containing the more common and destructive insect enemies of the Nebraska farmer, exhibited in their historic development from the egg to the worm and on to the moth or beetle. This series, the Nebraska State Journal says, is the work of Prof. Myron Swenk of the agricultural college. Looking at this panorama of obscure life, costing the people of Nebraska every year millions of dollars which no statistician dare compute, one realizes that man’s greatest enemies are the most minute. The fight is no longer with the tiger or wolf or serpent or panther. The mites and midgets, the slugs "and cutworms, the aphids and corn-root lice threaten man’s food supply, the bacilli threaten his very life. Here is a battle field where the question of man’s existence upon this planet must be fought. For this militia service Nebraska needs every man and woman, boy and girl, between the ages of five and ninetyfive, and for the line, staff and officers the best and brightest intellects our prairiee can produce.
Those who have seen a specimen of the new Bank of England emergency notes would not be surprised to learn that they had been received at first with a certain amount of suspicion. They are distinctly unimpressive. The note is insignificantly small, printed on what is apparently a very inferior brand of paper, and is as much unlike the £5 Bank of ExmO land note as could be imagined. And yet it appears that the British public took to the new currency with amazing ease. A Wall street man who has just returned from the other side tells how he introduced the new notes to

a small village in the north of England, claiming that the incident furnished a remarkable example of the trust placed by the English shopkeeper in his customers’ honesty. A few days after the new currency was issued he happened to make a purchase in a small shop in an out-of-the-way town and tendered a £1 note in payment. The shopkeeper, who had never heard of the new money, scrutinized the note carefully and asked what it was. The American explained the whole matter and how it came about. The shopkeeper thanked him and offered the correct change in return without another word.—New York Sun.

DON’T GET THOSE RATES
Corn Raisers Would Be Happy If Able to Command Prices Charged by Lobster Palaces.
“If the farmers in this country irho raise com,” remarked a spectacled business man from Warren street, “could open lobster palaces in Broadway and supply their own places with it there would be a new set of millionaires around town before a great while. I judge so from gating an ear of new com in one of those joints the other night that a friend of mine was paying for. “The price of it was 35 cents, and I should say it weighed considerably less than half a pound, but call it that. Now, there are 56 pounds of com to the bushel and we raise about 3.000. bushels annually. Calculating half a pound of com to the ear, we have 113 ears to the bushel, which, multiplied by 3,000,000,0(50, gives 336,000,000,000 ears, which at 35 cents an ear amounts to $117,600.000. for the farmers’ pockets annually. “Some money, ain’t it? Just the same that’s what they’d have out of their corn crops if they got lobsterpalace rates.” —Philadelphia Ledger.

The ambition to keep up appearances, too often at the expense of honesty, is a foolish one, as is also the pretense of being rich when the reverse is the case. We must be respectable—though only in the meanest sense—in the mere vulgar out-ward show. We have not the courage to live within our income, but must live in some fashionable state to gratify the vanity of that unsubstantial genteel world of which we form a part. There is a constant struggle and pressure for front seats in the social amphitheatre, in the midst of which all • noble, self-denying resolve is trodden down and many fine natures are inevitably crushed to death. There is an ambition to bring up our boys ns gentlemen, though the result is

But as a fighting patriotic song there is nothing to heal/ the French “Marseillaise,” which has been used by many countries whose own productions fail to strike the right note.
