N. Y Indo-European or Aryan Race. The Indo-European or Aryan race is the name given t<? that division of man kind covering the most of Europe, Ar menia. Persia, Afghanistan and north ern Hindustan. The evidence on which a family relation lias been established is that <?f language. In the different languages spoken by the nations which comprise tins race, there are similari ties which, according to expert philolo gists. can be accounted for only by sup posing that the nations who originally spoke them had a common origin. The "mother nation" here referred to is supposed to have existed in Central Asia, long before Europe was inhabit ed. From this center, in obedience to a law of movement which has con tinued to act through all history, suc cessive migrations took place toward the northwest into Europe. Part of the population settled in India and Persia, and for these reasons the race is named the Indo-European. The Hin doos belong to the native Aryan race of India. 1 Fielding on Suffrage. One of the earliest references to the enfranchisement 'of women is to be' found in Henry Fielding's newspaper, j the Champion, in 1740. In an imagin ary report of a suffrage meeting, the writer, who may have been Fielding himself, sets out the arguments of an , eloquent Lady HelinUa, who. after be- j wailing the fact that "a cobbler is rep resented in the legislature, but a ! duchess Is not," moves a resolution in favor of a parliament of women to J make the laws afferiing the sex and to j guard its rights and privileges against j "the He-Part of Creation." Her meet- 1 ing adjourned without carrying the j resolution, because "all the ladies j spake together."?London Chronicle. J Real Thrift. A prominent Omaha citizen was walking down the street recently in an uncertain way. holding a handker chief to his face. A friend accosted him and demanded to know what the trouble might be. ^ "I've something in my eye!" ex claimed the sufferer. "And it hurts like the dickens!" "Why don't you step into this drug store and have the clerk take it out?" snorted his friend. "I'm afraid to." sighed the man with i the red eye. 'it might be n piece of | coal!"

They mi* well with other food. They take less space in the barn. Every pound goes farther. Kimhraugh Bros., India nolo, Mi?., say: " We are using Buckeye Hulls and are very much pleased with them. We think they are superior to old style hulls." To ??euro the best result* and to develop the ensilage odor, wet the hullt thoroughly twelvm hoars before feeding. It It easy to do thU by wotting them down night and moraine for the next feeding. If at any tin* this cannot be done, wet down al least thirty minutes. If ysu*pr?fer ts feed the hulls dry, use only halfss much by bulk as of old style hulls. Book of Mixed Feed? Free Gives the right formula for every combination of feeds used in the South.
