PASTOR RESIGNS

Rev. Mr. Klopfenstein to Va­

cate his Pulpit Here in

a Short Time.

A t a meeting at Delong of the consistory of the Reformed church, comprising the officers of the four churches in the Culver charge, Rev. S. E . Klopfenstein presented his resignation of tho pastorate to take effect in April or sooner at his pleasure. Rev. Mr. Klopfensteiu's health is not good here, and under the advice of his physician ho will seek a climate less rigorous.

CORN IS KING.

Largest Supply on Hand in the His­tory of the United States.

On the basis of the government report issued Nov. 10 the corn crop is about 2,881,0%,000 bush­els as compared with 2,707,993,540 last year, or a gain of about 173,- 102,460 bushels. I t is estimated that the old corn in farmers5 hands at tho l 6t of November amounted to 119,152,000 bushels against 81,- 500,000 at the same time last year, which would mean that there is now in the country approximately 3,000,248,000 bushels, which is by large odds the greatest supply the United States has ever had. How the present crop compares with re­cent years may be seen by the fol­lowing table of yields:1905 .......................... 2,707,993,5401904 ............................ 2,467,480,9341903.................... ........ 2,244,167,9251902............................. 2,523,648,3121901............................. 1,522,519,891190 0 2,105,102,5161899............................. 2,078,143,9331898............................. 1,924,184,6,60

The farm price of corn, averaged for eight years here mentioned, was 40.6 cents, so that if the farmers can realize that average this year for the corn on hand, they will take in the enormous total of $1 ,- 218,(XX),000 in cold cash. The farm price of corn varied very much in the eight years mentioned. In 1898 it was 28.7 which was the lowest, and on the short crop in1901 it was 60.5 cents, which was the highest.

Speaking about the prospect of prices on the crop a board of trade dispatch says: “ Tho farmers are as independent as lords. They know they can feed their com, and make it bring them 50 cents a bushel at the present prices of live stock. They made tho corn prices all last year, and they will be very apt to do the same this year.”

Largo as the crop is, there is no doubt that there will be a good de­mand for all of it. Corn con­sumption is increasing enormous­ly, and nobody can tell how much the denatured alcohol act will re­quire. That act takes effect Jan. 1.— Champaign Gazette.

THAT TROLLEY LINE.

That Much Talked-of Logansport- South Bend Project.

Logansport, Ind., Nov. 26.— L o ­cal interurban men say that with­in a year’s time an interurban line will not only bo projected from L o ­gansport to South Bend, but that such a line will have been con­structed and in operation. I t is pointed out that there was a big merger of capital elfected in South Bend Thursday.

The merger controls millions of dollars. Both capitalists interest­ed in the Fort W ayne and Wabash Valley Traction company and the Winona Interurban company are members of tho merger, tho pur­pose of which is only evident in the make-up of those interested in it.

Here, it is said, the merger means more interurban lines. The first of all it means a line between here and South Bend. A line be­tween these cities has been pro­jected by two or three different companies with equal results— that the road is not built. It is thought in Logansport that the proper capi­tal is now in line to construct it.

He is at work on them now, but is diet­ing himself to keep his system in as good a condition as possible to resist infection and is taking an antiseptic regularly. He says the cigars smell like the day tho ice houses burned and taste like a trip down Halstead street. But perhaps he doesn’t know what a good cigar is, after all.

When Mercury Goes Down Price cf Eggs Goes Up.

A t this time of the year the ther mometer and the price of e.ggs are at opposite ends of a teeter-board. When the thermometer goes up for a time the price of eggs goes goes down, and when the thermom­eter goes down for a time the price of eggs goes up. I f it turns cold hens will not lay, and there will be no eggs on hand, consequently prices will be high. I f it should be warm for ten days or two weeks things will ease up as they did last winter aud egg prices will drop.

Cackling has ceased in nearly all henneries in tho great Middle W est and baskets of eggs are com­paratively few and far between.

Not all housewives have gained the knack of following the produce market reports, and when butter and eggs go up or down with the season they are not prepared for the sudden changes in the price of these commodities, and are in the habit of “ roasting” the grocer.

The T eacher’s Priv ilege.

W hat nobler profession can there

be than lh a t of passing on to younger

hum an beings the best there is in us?

It is rather a strange contradiction

tha t while education is h ighly valued

in our country, teaching on the whole

has less honor than it deserves. “I t

is a pity that, commonly, more care is

bad, yea. and tha t among very wise

men, to find ou t rather a cunning man

for their horse than a cunning man

for the ir children.” W e do not pay

our teachers enough for our own good,

since a liberal salary attracts talent

not only in itself bu t because it is a

symbol of success. H a lf a m illion

Americans are now engaged in doing

what they can w ith 20 ,000,000 younger

m inds. Surely no ha lf m illion Am eri­

cans are employed in more im portant

work. "Teach self-denial," said W a l­

ter Scott (and something m igh t be

6aid o f other virtues) “and make its

practice pleasurable, and you create

for the world a destiny more sublime

tlm n ever issued from the brain of

the w ildest dreamer.” Teach anything

that is good, remarks Collier’s, and

you touch tho depths. The ablest and

truest men and women arc required.—

those who know life and are not

pedants, not machines w ith notions of

suggestion no h igher than the ferule

and the copy-book. The teacher works

w ith liv ing m inds and hearts and

souls. On no m an or woman rests a

higher or more inspiring task.

President Roosevelt arrived at. Ponce

Wednesday morning from Colon on board the battleship Louisiana. He

was visited on board the vessel by Gov. W inthrop, who extended a wel­come t.o the island. The president,

at once came ashore and* was greeted

at the pier by Mayor Oppenheimer,

of Ponce, and a delegation of prom i­

nent officials and citizens. The town, which was profusely decorated in the

presidents honor, was crowded with people from the surrounding country

eager to greet Mr. Roosevelt.In spite of the early hour the land­

ing place was crowded w ith an ex­

pectant throng, many of whom had

been in the ir places all n igh t to wit­ness the incom ing of the Louisiana.

New York, Nov. 21.— Dr. Edward T,

Devine, who as special representative of the Red Cross had supervision of the relief work of the society at San Francisco follow ing the earthquake

disaster, declared before the New York state branch of the Red Cross

Tuesday that while m istakes m ight have been made in the distribution of the relief fund, there was no “graft” there. Dr. Devine took oc­

casion to refer to the indictments re­

cently returned by the grand jury I against Mayor Schm itz o f San Fran- ' cisco growing out o f an Investigation of municipal affairs, saying:

“There is one person, a t least, one who has had every opportunity to

know the truth, who does not believe the mayor of San Francisco has stolen a single penny of the relief fund.”

The seven months’ work of the Red Cross, in conjunction w ith the other committees was reviewed in a general way by Dr. Devine.

The relief fftnd, lie said, reached the total o f $13,000,000, of which S9.000.000 was contributed in cash to the general relief fund, $2,500,000 by tho federal

government and the rest by indepen­

dent organizations : and Individuals

who expended the money independent­ly.

pressed w ith eager haste the brush

end bracken o f the riverside. Owa­

toga had given no h in t o f his direc­

tion- was it up or down the stream ?

Down, he would have had to row

against the current, and past the v il­

lage, w ith more show o f detention.

Nevertheless, W ins low though t i t more

lik e ly th a t he had taken th a t course.

W estw ard, was ever the In d ia n ’s

watch-cry, and aga inst the wave, Owa­

toga rs g ian t strength would have less

chance of being overtaken. The pos­

s ib ility of observation was sm all; it

had been a Sabbath day, and in the

heat of noon, when a ll would avoid the

river.

A ll th is Owatoga had doubtless con­

sidered, though t W ins low , as he

tram ped the water's edge up and down,

peering Into every c lum p arul shade.

I l ls steps had led h im well to the east,

when, suddenly, half-way between the

w ater and a ferny coppice, he spied

som eth ing sm all and dark ly ing on the

sand. M echanically he went to exam ­

ine It, and his heart beat like a forge

as he recognized the black bag —the

s ilk trifle she had worn a t church the

previous day. He stood s till for a

m om ent, overcome by the feelings of

re lie f and tenderness roused in h im by

th is in an im a te th in g— this b it o f s ilk

th a t had dang led from her waist.

H e raised i t from the damp,"'sandy

bed as though it were sacred, fond ling

i t w ith reverent care. Then, w ith the

touch of it, rushed over h im , too, a

sense o f its practical value! Here

w’as proof of her presence on th is spot;

then Owatoga had brought her here—

he was ou the righ t track at last!

F o ld ing the bag, he was about to

stow it in h is pocket, when from it

dropped a yellow envelope; he stooped

to regain it— it was h is own. Iu her

possession; th is note, w hich causing

h is presence in the forest o n th a t fa ta l

n igh t, had caused a ll the tangle of dis­

tru s t and suffering and apprehension

— a ll the wretched coil. The s igh t of

the yellow paper filled h im w ith dis­

gust, and to find the rem inder o f th a t

n ig h t in som ething of hers— to see it

in th is da in ty pocket which should hold

on ly delicate, clean and beautifu l

th in g s—he shivered, h u rt in a l l h is finer feelings.

Rep lac ing the letter, he pu t the bag

in h is knapsack, w ith a little sigh,

then , as if th row ing aside sentim ent

fo r practical th ings, he looked care­

fu lly about. She had been here— of

th a t there was proof; bu t Owatoga had

m entioned two boats— where could the

o ther be?

H is gaze fell upon a .som ething w hich

looked like two ends o f boards jo ined

together in a way th a t proved m an ’s

hand iw ork . The boat! Ho made a

dash in to the coppice, and from it

pulled « lig h t canoe. For one moment

he stood surveying it, in thank fu l, s ilent

ecstasy; then he pushed it from shore

and was out on the broad breast of tho

M issouri.

F o r an idle m om ent the boat swung

w ith tho current; the m an a t the oars

le t i t d r ift up or dow n? W h ile 'h e

hesitated, the sun rose from a grove

o f trees beyond the bend o f the river.

I t po inted long fingers of lig h t s tra igh t

up the stream , and motes danc ing in

Its rays, beekoncd h im to follow .

"A n om e n !” he exclaimed, in sud­

den burst of boyish enthusiasm , and

s tra ig h t aga inst the current he head­

ed the boat.

“W estw ard we go,” he said, p layfu lly ,

g iv ing rein to the new buoyancy.

“ Fo llow at your leisure,” and he waved

h is hand to the sun, w hich now burn t

a huge copper globe on the horizon.

I t was yet early day when he rowed

past the v illage—drowsy s till w ith the

s loth o f the previous Sabbath. The

few who were stirring , took no care to

In d ia n ’s strength had fe lt the strain ,

an d to th is m an . weakened by illness,

whose powers o f endurance were ra th ­

er of nerve than brawn, i t was effort

indeed. Yet, buoyed by the hope tha t

had sprung in his heart a t s ig h t of

the gracious souvenir of her presence,

he toiled on, scann ing each change in

the ou tline of shore, anxious fo r the

first s igh t o f swamp and grove o f tam ­

aracks. He fe lt a lm ost sure i t would

be on the northern bank ; Owatoga had

g iven no h in t to cross the river. Be­

sides, m any of the Osage tribe were

scattered to the north , and it was like ­

ly he would choose the hun ting

grounds of his own people.

A n hour or two a t noon, he pu t ashore

a t the foot o f a poplar-crowned bluff,

then on— u n til, w ith the fiercest blaze

of the afternoon sun scorching his tired

back, the grove of tam aracks came in

s ight. Its dense, swampy shade lured

h im w ith promises of delicious cool­

ness— here, too, was another lin k in

the cha in w h ich was leading h im to

her. A t the though t h is flagging

s trength revived; his ach ing arm s felt

new vigor, and w ith a dozen stout

i <A the oar, ho landed a t a

little po in t ■R’tiere one w ithered tam ­

arack stood apart; the dead brown

needles a t its crest a crown o f thorns

uplifted to the sky.

On the edge o f the forest stood a

scrub-oak tree, one branch of w hich

had been bent over and rooted again ,

g iv ing a curious hump-backed effect.

W inslow noted th is w ith a s ta rt of

pleasure. "A no the r lan dm ark ! I t is

well I have before w itnessed Owatoga's

forest-craft,” he thought.

H id ing the boat, he rested ln the

shade, bu t on ly for a litt le space. For,

w ith the end o f h is search so near, he

could no t da lly , though the grass was

soft and y ie ld ing— the tu rf as a fea th ­

ered couch; tho sky a marvelous tu r ­

quoise canopy, pierced w ith a thousand

emerald spires.R is ing , he studied carefully every

spot to discover fu rther signs of the

presence o f those he sought. " A h !”

and ho laughed aloud, tr ium phan tly .

On the ground he spied scraps of corn-

bread and an em pty bottle. W inslow

sniffed a t the latter, and made a wry

face. “ Poor lit t le g ir l,” he said, sm il­

ing. w ith a p ity ing shako of the head.

One litt le crust he picked up and

slipped in to his pocket, g lanc ing

shamefacedly, a t a squlrred, which,

perched on a near-by lim b, seemed to

note the action w ith a teasing t i l t o f

its head and a m ocking chatter.U n like Owatoga's direct course

through tho swampy undergrowth,

W ins low ’s u n fam ilia r feet led h im by

a circuitous path to the base of a h ill

on the opposite side from w hich the

Ind ia n and Lavender had emerged the

n ig h t before.

Here he paused, and tak in g the d ia ­

gram from his pocket, studied i t again.

W hero? Beyond th is h ii l? He

glanced w earily a t the slope; it was

beautifu l w ith Its carpet o f flowers and

festoons o f ivy looped from tree and

shrub. I t was in v it in g — but l t was

steep; he was tired— “ juu t beyond”

was vague, tan ta liz ing .

Obedient to the im pulse of fatigue,

he sat down to rest aga inst the tru nk

of a sycamore whose roots coiled about

h im like protecting arms. N o t far

away lay the stretch o f swampy under­

grow th; a few paces to hia r igh t

loomed the h ill like a m ound made

w ith g ia n t hands—steep, sharp, w ith ­

out purpose in the landscape.

He was pondering w hether to ascend

o r sk irt its base, when h is attention

was held by the figure of a m an com ing

slow ly down. H is step was firm and

lig h t as an Ind ian brave’s, though from

under the cap of sk ins flowed ha ir

w h iter than the aspen's s ilver lin ing .

He was s t il l too fa r aw ay for W in s ­

low to a ttrac t his notice. Interested,

tho latter watched h im as ho came, a

A stir ln che swam p a t h is left

in its recess, too. E v iden tly th is part

M echanically , and w ithout noise, W in s ­

low took firm hold of h is rifle, and

kept h is eyes fastened on tho opening

whence the rus tling sound.

He had not long to w ait. A n In ­

dian stepped forth , p la in ly revealed. He

wore buckskin clothes like the w hite

pioneer, bu t w ith bead and b lanket and

curious m arks on the red sk iu . H is

gaze swept pa3t W ins low , fixed in sar­

donic in terest upon the m an slow ly de­

scending the h il l who came steadily

on. unconscious o f any presence.

Over tho face of the savage crept a

d iabo lica l sm ile as ho raised his rifle.

B u t the trigger was no t pulled. There

was, instead, a flash, a report from

W ins low ’s gun, aud w ith a yell of

, aston ishm ent, rage and pa in , tho In-

i d ian dropped to his knees.

Q uick ly W inslow stood over h im ,

w ith gun aga in leveled, and the old

m an iu silence jo ined h im .

"H a d we not better d isarm the fel­

low w hile we hold h im a t our mercy,

s ir? ” W ins low suggested, keeping a

w atch fu l gaze on the wounded man.

D an ie l Boone bent over h im , and

took h is gun , tom ahaw k and kn ife in

g r im silence.

Then rising , he extended h is hand

to W ins low w ith a sm ile o f gratitude

th a t made young the stern o ld fea­

tures. " I th ank you, sir. I t ’s quick­

ness counts a t such a tim e .”

W inslow grasped the proffered hand.

“ I am th an k fu l th a t I happened to "be

here. B u t w hat sha ll we do w ith th is

rascal?”

They turned to where tho Ind ian

groveled in pa in to see blood soaking

through the heavy leggings, m ak ing a

red-brown pool on w hich a dead leaf

floated. A nd In spite o f everything,

p ity stirred both. Together they bound

up h is wound and helped h im to

. rise.

1 To W ins low ’s astonishm ent, fee spoke

in good E ng lish guttura ls . "W h y not !

k il l Osage brave? Bad shot?”

W ins low shook h is head. "N o , a

v ita l is easy to strike at such short

range, but I have a s ilgh t prejudice

against murder, which , of course, you

cannot understand. I did not need to

k ill you. This gentlem an is aa safe as

though you lay s tark dead.”

Dan ie l Boone added, impressively:

"Yes, you owe your life to th is m an.

Try to remember tha t, i f you have

the one v irtue o f your race. B u t now

th a t you aro saved, we do not know

w ha t to do w ith you.” ho added, g r im ­

ly, surveying the Ind ian , who, resting

on one knee, hugged its wounded fe l­

low.

To his surprise the savage said,

w h ile ho rose w ith difficulty: " I go

hom e w ith you.”

"Then you know where I live at

present?”

" I know ; m any others know ; take

me w ith you.” T his the savage said

over and over, each tim e more urg­

ently.

Boono looked puzzled. "M y hu t Is ju s t

over the h ill ,” he said to W ins low , " in

the th icket a t its foot. I have little

room , little to offer, bu t a ll I have is

yours. I t was never yet said tha t

D an ie l Boone forgot a service.”

"So th is is Col. Boone? I am hon ­

ored, indeed, and since I am on a

strange and anxious errand, I gladly

accept your offer."

There suddenly darted th rough his

m ind the thought of Owatoga's mes­

sage, and of the “old m an of the

woods.” B u t he would waste no tim e

in va in hope and idle speculation.

A loud he said: "T h is Ind ian is some­

th in g of a nuisance, bu t— ”

He paused, and the other finished

the phrase: "B u t he is wounded, he lp ­

less; we can’t leave h im to d ie .”

To the Ind ia n Boone said: “ Come,”

and slow ly they climbed the h ill, W in s ­

low and h is new-found friend, w ith

the red m an staggering between.

L itt le was said, for the journey was

toilsome and slow, over briars and

roots, under a sun yet hot, though low

in the west.

A t the brow o f the h ill they paused

and looked down. "Tho shed is there,

bu t you cannot see it .” Boone said, and

to the shade of boasting in his tone

Ihe In d ia n retorted: "B u t i t has been seen! Tho white m an is no m atch for

his red brother— the o ld m an ’s hu t has

been seen.”

This was aa!d w ith such te llin g em ­

phasis th a t the listeners were filled

w ith a vague apprehension. From this

man, alone, and unarm ed, they had

no th ing to fear, bu t m ig h t there not

be others?

Eaoh, however, forbore to question,

and the In d ia n relapsed in to sullen

silence.

They descended the opposite side of

the h ill, and still no sign o f dwelling,

when a t last the lit t le place came ln

sight through a break in the th ick

grove hedging it about.

A nd then W ins low 's heart stood s till

w ith a tu m u lt of feeling.There, a t tho entrance of the cabin,

stood Lavender and the Ind ia n guide

together— interested, friendly.

i t was a ll so. then, even as the oc­

toroon had said: "T ho w hite m aid

w ill be sale w ith Owatoga.”

CHAPTER X X IV .

Lavender was show ing Ow atoga the

use of the gritter. “ See, you rub the

corn a long th is rough side, and it

comes ou t meal on the other; i t ia

rea lly magic, Ow atoga,”

She laughed, and the low m usic was

as sweet to hear as sho was fa ir to

see. W ith arm s bare to the elbow,

she held a crock between her knees,

in to w hich the meal slow ly sifted. Now

and then she raised a face brigh t and

flushed w ith exercise, to meet the calm

eyes of Owatoga fixed upon her in

placid content.

For a m om ent the newcomers

watched them thus, then Boone w his­

pered: " I should have prepared you for

“I AM SO GLAD YOU HAVE COME.”

SHE CR IED .

the presence o f a female, bu t in the care

of th is m an here, I forgot. I sha ll go

on. and let her know there ia a guest

w ith me.”

W ins low stayed back in shadow,

w hile Boone w ent forward. H e saw'

the g ir l sm ile and wave a welcome

w ith the corn-cob sho held. Then the

old pioneer whispered a word to Ow a­

toga, and w ith long, crouching strides,

the la tter cleared the vacan t space to

where his m aster stood supporting the

wounded brave.

"G o to her,” was a ll he said, and

slow ly W ins low obeyed; ho needed

tim e to collect h im se lf and be calm

and strong after the first joy of see­

ing her— alive and well.

M eantime, Boone had to ld Lavender,

in terse words: " I m et a youth in

the woods, and brought h im home w ith

me. You w ill not object to a stranger

by our camp-fire?”

A strong in tu it io n seized her; the

youth who was to share the ir cam p­

fire— who was he? Her heart gave the

answer. A ll day, from her awaker-

in lg a t early dawn—from rh* first Vatnt

peep o f lig h t over the sumach-bordered

wood, she had watched tho sun's march

across, the sky. w ondering a t what

po in t of his p ilg rim age he would shino

upon the m an who was to seek and bring her home.

So when, a t last. W ins low came, she

fe lt no surprise -she had known he

would come. The devotion o f Gonzaga

— the apparent neglect of th is o th ­

er— were a like forgotten. " I am so

glad you have come,” sho cried, and

went to meet h im w ith both hands out­

stretched. T ak ing them in his: " I

came as soon as I could,” he said, and

for a few m om ents they stood silent,

hands clasped, the ir eyes meeting.

"Heyday, heyday !” exclaimed their

host, "am I the v ic tim of a conspiracy?

T his is w hat comes o f an old foo l’s

m edd ling !” B u t there was a tw inkle

in h is eye, and the frown was a fa il­

ure. W h ile Lavender went ca jo ling ly

up to h im , and stroked his arm in a

gentle caress, W inslow said: "C a ll

lt ‘an o ld fool’s m eddling .’ if you like.

Col. Boone, bu t to me you are an agent

of Providence. As you see, sir, I have

the honor to be acquainted w ith th is

young lady, and am come in search of

her. A crude h in t le ft by Owatoga

brought me here; you guided me the

rest of tho way; my story is toid— it is I who have a ll to learn .”

‘^Vom en are better talkers than men

— even old men,” Boone retorted, w ith

mock gruffness. “ I refer you to the

young wom an herself. I 'l l Just, step

down to the spring and dress these

rabbits for supper. Folks can’t live

on ta lk— nor love, e ither.”

W ith th is pa rting shot, delivered

over h is shoulder between nods and

know ing w inks, the o ld m an slipped

in to the thicket.A fter a m om ent’s silence, made aw k­

ward by the pioneer’s s ignificant worda

and m anner, Lavender said: “ D id you

see m other? Is she”—-her eager eyea

supplied the question.

The departm ent detective had been

in the large store. She fitted the de­

scrip tion o l a certain notorious shop­

lifter, but, w hile m ora lly certain tha t

articles had been deftly transferred to

concealed pockets, he had no direct

evidence to causc an arrest. Neverthe­

less, he stopped her ju s t as sue made

fo r tho door.

"Good afternoon, E llen Johnson ,”

aald the detective a t her elbow, w atch­

ing her face closely for corroboration.

The ch illy stare directed a t a would-

“ B u t you are E llen Johnson , aren 't

“ I 'm n o t !” she snapped. “A nd I

"W h y , er— er— I'm the store detec­

recognize you as the shoplifter, E llen

Johnson .”

"S ir ! You and your store w ill pay

“B u t the description fits you exact­

“O-oh! Does lt really say th a t? ”

"Yes. m adam , and further goes on,

“A-a-h, sir! you flatter— "“S till further the description says:

'Ears like rosy sea-shells, T itian

The woman pushed back a w isp of

“ I can’t deny the description, sir,”

she said. “1 confess a ll! B u t be sure

INSURANCE RATES.

A Raise All Along the Line After the First of January.

After the first of next year the fire insurance rates in the United States will be adjusted according to what is known as the “ Dean schedule.” Men are working in ev­ery city of importance and it is ex­pected to have the schedule com­pleted by Jan. 1 . The local agents seem to know little about the schedule, except that rates are to be raised on some classes of risks and lowered on others. The fact that all tho big companies are to be governed by the new tariff and that its influence will bo felt from one end of the country to the oth­er, makes the move one of the most important events in fire insu­rance circles for many years. The business has all t i e aspects of a combination.

Attorney General’s Opinion.The attorney general'of Indiana

findse attorney general'of Indiana finds himself discredited by higher authority in his opinion that the law of 1U03 fixing the beginning of terms of county officers on Jan.1 is unconstitutional. The su­preme court has rendered a decis­ion that the law stands. Consid erable confusion has been created by the attorney general’s opinion, a number of county officers having already qualified aud taken their positions. In Pulaski county the prosecuting attorney refused to surrender his oilice until his com­mission expired Jan. 1, and the newly-elected prosecutor, acting under the attorney general’s opin­ion, qualified and assumed the duties with the result that both officers are handling the criminal business. %

A Good Word for the Churches.There is not a man in our city,

said a well-known resident of Cul­ver the other day, however indif­ferent to the claims of Christianity,

who would want to raise his family here if there Mere no churches or church influences, for he at once recognizes them as the guardians of the morals of the community. W hat would be our condition at the end of tbe next ten years if from this time until then the churches were closed? To what extent would life and property be safe? _______

increasing duce the great corn crop of 1906, by Nov. 1.1907, to as small a meas­ure as the farmers found in their hands of the old crop on that date this year. There is a disposition to bull corn prices just now, even in the face of the big crop figures; the heavy consumption that will go on now, aided by a light supply of hay and a moderate oat crop, is very likely to boom corn before next spring. — Champaign (111.)

A Stiff Gale.T he wind storm of last week

Wednesday was exceptional not only for its force but its duration. I t extended over a wide scope of country in Indiana and did con­siderable damage. Its velocity was 50 miles an hour.

In Culver the roof of Warner's barn was blown ofl!, and the danc­ing barge, tho W hite Swan, was torn from its moorings at tho out­let and blown across the lake to the academy where it grounded. W hile making a trip to Burr Oak Howard’s delivery wagon was over­turned and the side curtains lashed into strings.

Trees and telephone wires were wrecked, and tho roofs of two box cars in a N ickel P late train were blown off between Argos and H ib ­bard.

and rail­roads is a shortage in cars, and by the packers a shortage in help.

Railroads are not alone to blame for the delays, according to this merchant. H e thinks the pure food laws enacted this year and which are to go into effect Jan. 1. may be responsible for a great part of tbe trouble. H e gave as a reason that manufacturers are not yet thoroughly acquainted with the demands of the laws or how they will be interpreted by the inspect­ors. T hey look for errors in the analyses and ignorance on the part of some of the inspectors to make trouble for them on goods which are as honestly prepared as it is possible to make them.

Dealers do not look for relief from the annoyances of delays and refusal to fill orders until after the law has been tested and the men who handle the bulk of the prod­ucts which come under the new legislation have been tested and interpreted so that all may know just what to expect.

M any of the canned and pre­served articles which have been guaranteed pure all along, are now placed ou the doubtful list and dealers are pasting labels on the packages, telling some of the se­crets of their preparation. In the most of the cases these secrets do uot indicate the use of harmful drugs.

A Singular Accident.D uring the gale of last W ednes­

day afternoon, Pearl Earl, the 12- year old daughter o f Thomas Earl, residing on the Ben Sw itzer farm northwest of Plym outh, was seri­ously injured at the Brundige school, taught by Robert Head. She was entering an out-building when tho wind blew tho building over and she was pinioned between it and the ground. Mr. Head w it­nessed the accident and quickly released tho child and took her to her home. She had her leg broken near the hip and may have been otherwise injured.

The Passing of the Water Fowl.Charles Merryweather, a deputy

game warden on the Kankakee riv­er, says that ducks and other wild water fowl are exceedingly scarce this year and attributes the fact to the drying up of tho feeding grounds and marshes by the ditch­es and drainage. “ The scarcity of ducks has been unprecedented, said the gonial game warden, “ but the days of t he Kankakee as a feed­ing ground are past.”

W e are all agreed in our opinion of the southern girl. She is simply ador­

able. Beyond other girls she possesses woman’s most fascinating quality, charm. But how to define charm is the impossible task. As well m ight cne endeavor in cold type to describe the perfume of a flower as to set forth in measured words tho charm of southern girlhood.

Whether she come from the Old Dominion, from Kentucky, Tennessee,

or Alabama, from anywhere indeed bolow thc distinctively southern line,

she has the same inscrutable art of compelling every beholder to do her

bidding and of making every man more or less her servant. W ithout apparent effort the winsome southern girl gets her own way both in her

home and in society, and if as in these

days, she often does, she engages in business life, her success is assured

beforehand.

Tho southern woman succeeds in

what she undertakes, partly because she believes in herself, and partly be­cause her world has always believed in her. From the cradle she has been a queen. No princess royal is more honored in her circle than a pretty southern girl in her own fam ily and among her friends. I have seen a lit ­tle girl not seven years old waited upon by her father and brothers as if she were grown up. and have noted in her the beginning of that gentle air of command which underlies the sweet manners of southern women.

On the surface, the southern girl is often rather helpless. She never

springs forward to undertake tasks or go on errands that others may accom­plish in her stead. The feminine ele­ment is not over1 * her bv any- ment *-•> overlaid in »».-» by th ing mannish or self-assertive. She has almost the appearance of one who has to be picked up and carried over every rough b it of the road. The south­ern man is gallant because the south­ern woman takes for granted thc tact tha t he is her cavalier, that he means to protect her, and that in any emer­gency, he will stand loyally at her side. Superficially, only, is the south­ern girl helpless. In reality she is abundantly able to take care of her­self, whether she walk on the high

way, cross the continent or come from her quiet home in a country village

to live in a great strange city. She was early taught to ride, to swim and to engage in any sport popular in her neighborhood. Her social tra in ing is

never neglected.

In no portion of this great land is

so much emphasis placed on those ac­complishments which make women agreeable in society as in the South.The southern girl studies the art of dress. She wears her clothes w ith the grace of the lily or the rose, and you shall see her as captivating in a mus­lin frock that cost only a dollar or two

all told as if it had been worth several dollars a yard. Better than most ■women she understands how much there is in a good cut, in appropriate

trim m ing, and in a style that suits

the wearer.

A southern girl once said to me,"W e care more than you do in the north to wear what sets us oif to ad­vantage. and we think a good deal less about what things cost than about

their general effect.”* * * * *

Southern girls are taught music, not merely that they may play the works

of renowned composers, but that they may pleasantly entertain a home circle or cheat a weary hour of gloom for an invalid or an aged friend. If they havo voices they are taught to

Southern girls are coquettes. They are not easily won. A bird on a bough is not more elusive and capri­cious than a southern maid. But once she has given her troth and sur­rendered her whole being to tho man she loves, she lives for h im alone. The southern matron does not cease to be charm ing and gracious, she loses no jot of hor bewitching person­ality. but after marriage she never condescends to vulgar arts of flirta­tion or disputes the field w ith unm ar­

ried girls. She leaves to those who

are still unmated the pleasures and the pains, the excitements and the laurels that belong to the province of winsome girlhood. I t is enough for her to be tho central influence in her home, and tho coronation of her

husband’s life. She is a born house­keeper, notw ithstanding an impres­sion that she never puts her hand to anything in tho way of work. Her ; southern mother has early delegated to her certain cares and responsibili­ties. She has known since child­hood some secrets of delicate cook­

ing, some peculiar traditional fam ily

recipes and is mistress of the fine 1 art of catering and of presiding a t a

table while yet she is in her teens.

W hen the babies come the southern woman finds her chief joy in her nursery. She may have the help of

others there, but it is her hand that guides tho littlo ones, and her love that enfolds them in the first years, m aking sure for life the beginnings

of good habits. One often sees a transformation that, is almost a m ira­cle when thc gayest of southern girls

one who spent her days in an atmos­phere of brilliant display, settles down in absolute tranquillity to the oversight of her children and her home.

F .ron? first to last, our southern sis­

ter is a thing of bewitching contrasts, womanly to her finger tips, pure, con­

scientious, exacting, sweet, haughty, puzzling, capable, lovable; sho is, as I have said, simply adorable.

seventy-two years of age. My system had been all run down. My blood was so bad that blood poisoning had set in. I had several doctors attending me, so finally I went to the hospital where I was laid up for two months. My foot and ankle were almost be­yond recognition. Dark blood flowed out of wounds in many placcs and I

was so disheartened that I thought surely my last chance was slowly leav­

I stood this pain, which was dreadful, for six months, and during this time I was not able to wear a shoo and not ablo to work. Some one spoke to

me about Cuticura. The consequences were I bought a set of the Cuticura

Remedies of one of my friends who was a druggist, and tho praise that I gave after the second application is

beyond description; It seemed a m ir­acle for the Cuticura Remedies took effect immediately. I washed the foot w ith thc Cuticura Soap before apply­

Possibly, the education given to southern women at large is less thor­

ough and profound than that which most northern girls receive, but in the end they can do moro w ith what they have and find their tools readier to their hand than is customary with

the girls of other sections.

This statement must, however, be guarded or perhaps qualified by cer­tain exceptions. A southern girl, a

affin paper under them, bake in a slow oven or place in the window and leave

for several days until perfectly dry. This w ill help many rainy days to pass more quickly for little people. It can

Publish a Book About Coffee.

There has been much discussion as

to Coffee and Postum lately, so much

Jn fact that some of the coffee import­ers and roasters have taken to type to promote the sale of their wares

and check if possible the rapid growth of the use o f Postum Food Coffee.

In tho coffee importers' book a chap­

ter is headed “Coffee as a Medicine,” and advocates its use as such.

Here is an admission of the truth, most im portant to all interested.

Every physician knows, and every thoughtful person should know, that habitual uso of any “medicine” of the

drug-stimulant type o f coffee or whis­ky quickly causes irritation of the tissues and organs stimulated and finally sets up disease in the great

majority of cases if persisted in. It may show in any one of tho many

organs of the body and in the great majority of cases can be directly traced to coffee In a most unm istak­able way by leaving off the active ir­ritant— coffee— and using Postum Food Coffee for a matter of ten days. I f the result is relief from nervous

trouble, dyspepsia, bowel complaint, heart failure, weak eyes, or any other

malady set up by a poisoned nervous system, you havo your answer with

the accuracy of a demonstration in mathematics.

‘‘There's a reason” for Postum.

Movable Poultry House on Runners.

vantages that makes it not only prac­tical, but indispensable in profitable poultry keeping. It frequently hap­

pens during the breeding season that one desires to separate a few individ­

uals from the flock for special breed­ing purposes.

A portable hen house furnishes means through which the desired pur­pose can be accomplished economical­ly and conveniently. The house can be moved a short distance from the

main plant, a small area fenced in, and the flock maintained without much additional expense.

There are always occasions in poul try raising when it becomes advisable

to promote best results to keep broods of young poultry separated during thc growing season. In fact if the broods can be distantly separated they will do much better.

In such Instances it is a matter of great convenience to resort to small shelters for carrying on the work. I have many times found it advisable to separate my young growing stock into colonies of a hundred and house them a few rod apart.

To separate the fowls successfully 1 used colony hoases, and find that I am not only able to conduct thc work more satisfactory, but far more eco­

nomically as well. Especially with young growing stock the colony meth­od of growing the stock Is the most

profitable.There are various designs of colony

houses that can bo made portable and answer the purpose in every way. The

one here illustrated is an excellent one and has many strong advantages over many that are in use to-day upon some

farms. The house is 5x8% w ith five

posts.The building is mounted upon run-

n«rs that serves as a means of trans­portation. The runners are 5x5-inch pine w ith au iron strip nailed to the bottom of the runner to save them

from wearing, also t.o keep the wood­work up as much as possible from the moisture. The main frame work is

made of two by fours.The siding is pine ship-lapping of

good quality. Shingles were used for

roofing. In the front is a door for en­tering the building when necessary and for cleaning out. A system of ventilation is used that supplies fresh air on the same principle as used in cow-stables. This is essential as the

shelter Is small and tight.This portable shelter, says Prairie

Farmer, has been in use for several years and Is one of the most popular

portable hen houses in use upon sev­eral M ichigan poultry farms.

The Bone M ill.

I t is surprising that every farmer

that has fowls does not have a bone

m ill. Bonos cannot he utilized w ith­out being ground, and they contain

a large amount of food ingredients. Bones contain much lime and this is very necessary to the fowl dropping a large number of eggs during the year. Bones also contain phosphorus,

and this is not found in as large quan­

tities in some other foods. The green bones also contain considerable of

nitrogen. Altogether iho use of bones ground or cut is to be recommended.

Moreover, large quantities of the bones are constantly going to waste. W hy throw away bones which may­

be of such value in thc poultry estab­lishment? Their manurial value is

also made available after they have been used by the fowls.

How to Manage So As to Get Them

W hen pullets intended for winter laying arc put in their winter quar­

ters, see ihat there are no drafts,

that the floors are dry, and that the houses may be well ventilated from ihe south rather than from the north or west.

An excellent plan for insuring

warm th is to have heavy curtains around the roosts, and when the nights are very chilly let these cur­

tains down. In this way the natural

heat of thc fowls will be conserved, and there will be little danger of frosted combs or wattles.

For the hens lhat are to lay during

December and January, provide a good dust bath, seer that oyster shell and grit are constantly w ith in reach, and that the fowls are supplied with

pure water and plenty of grain— wheat being best for day feeding and corn for night, especially during zero weather.

Secure plenty of clover, says tho

Farm Journal, keep it where it will nor become musty, and see that the pullets have all they will eat.

Give a feed of meat scraps a t least

once a week and oftener, if there is a market near enough where it may be secured.

Charcoal can he purchased at. a

hardware store, or a k iln can be made

and any desired amount burned. Give a handful of this powdered, mixed with table scraps or mash; or it. can be left . In a box in the pen, where the hens can help themselves a t will.

In addition to this, an occasional cabbage; can be fed.; compel the fowls to tear it apart for themselves.

Xever feed sloppy foods In winter !

(or any other time, for that matter). Even bran mashes are best if made as thick as possible.

Success in the Gulf Coast CountryHere is an example of what Y O U could do.

$500 Realized from One

Acre of Onions.Mr. Geo. Hoffman, of Kingsville, Texas, planted early

this Spring five acres in carrots. In March, he sold his car­

rots to Denny & Co., of Chicago, for $5 per crate. H is net

returns on five acres of carrots were $320 per acre. One acre

planted in onions yielded more than 20,000 pounds, for which

he received 2 1-2 cents a pound. Result: $500 per acre.

Mr. Hoffman is not a myth, but a real, live, up-to-date farmer; write him at Kingsville and he will tell more about his wonderful success.

Such results may seem beyond belief, but they are facts. You might do as well in the Gulf Coast Country. It has a mild climate; tender vegetables can be raised almost every month in the year. Tho farmer there puts his crop on the market in W inter and early Spring, when the price is highest. B y irrigation he insures himself against crop failure; rivers or artesian wells give a bountiful supply of water. Two and sometimes three crops a year are raised and twenty acres there will make as much as fifty acres in other places.

Don t you think this is better than a one-crop country where your success depends on uncertain weather with irregular rainfall ? Come to the Gulf Coast Country and win success as others have done.

J^ o tv the land is cheap and you can get it on easy terms. Twenty acres will cost you about $500. The cost of clearing it is about £5 ail acre. '1 he cost of water for irrigation varies. You may want an artesian weil of your own ; 3*ou may get water from some riv e r; or you may get it from your neighbor. But the cost ^s not great and tlio.se who have tried it have netted from the first crop, a sum which has paid all expenses, and left a good surplus.

It is not only a good place to make money, but it is also a good place for a home. The sunny, mild winters are delightful and tho summers are tempered by the cool breezes from the Gulf.

A Logansport M an— I haven’t any doubt that the trip made from Logansport to Culver a few weeks ago by two of the Culvers was what was claimed for it at the time

tbe fastest rush ever made 011 an Indiana road. The Culvers were anxious to get to their mother’s bedside, and paid a chauffeur $100 to land them in Culver in record- breaking time. The passenger train left Logansport for Culver 20 minutes after the auto left, and the car kept ahead of the train all the way. A s near as I can find out the trip was made in about 1 hour and 10 minutes, and it? was so fast that the driver said he wouldn't care to repeat it even for $100.

— Some of our exchanges have made mention of the fact that the farmers living along the lines of rural routes have contributed a bushel or so of corn to the carrier. T his is a suggestion that might well be acted upon by the patrons of every rural route. The carriers have a government job, but it is by no means a “ private snap.” I t takes a good deal of management to make both ends meet when they are obliged to keep two horses, live in town .and buy all the neces­sary provisions at the market price. The carriers of our country have gone over their routes during the muddy weather at a great incon­venience. and are always faithful in the performance of their duties. A bushel of corn or so given to the carrier would hardly be missed by the farmer, but it would be a great saving in the expense of horse feed and the generous act would cer­tainly be appreciated by tho faith­ful man.
