WEATHER FORECAST j Hain tonight and Thursday. Miss Josephine Krick went to Fort Wayne yesterday afternoon. When a statesman can't think cf anything else to say he takes a drink of water. Do not talk $o much about your misfortunes, and your misery will grow less. Then there are old timers who can remember many events that never happened. , Suspiction is a light sleeper, not to say- an insomonia victim, and most easily aroused. When a man doesn't want to commit himself he says his condition is just normal. You needn't study law to know enough about it to keep out of the penitentiary. it is also possible to enjoy a fair amount of personal liberty without getting soused. Mrs. Mary Fullenkamp, Miss Ode Fullenkamp, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Filllenkamp- attended the funeral of Willem Minke in Root township yesterday. Mrs A Nettie Schrock has returned from a visit in Indianapolis and Bloomington. 111., with her two daughters. She has been gone since last September. Mrs. Milo Black and Mrs. C. C.

Just what the nature of the injuries are and when the accident occurred is not known at present. When we watch th’ modern girl we can't help thinkin’ o’ th’ ole tedious prosy dafs o’ postage stamps an’ handkerchief flirtations. When you consider that a feller wears Th’ same dress suit fer thirty or years, it seems like a woma> z ought to be able to get a gown that would go fer two or three occasions.—Abe Martin. Long ago some university professo-, said to be President Eliot, produced a test sentence that would serve as an examination in spelling for old Noah Webster himself, "It is amusing to view tiie unparalleled einbrassment of a haressed pedler or saddler, sitting on a cemetery wall and viewing the symmetry of a peeled potato, pomegranate or persimmon.” History is no museum of antiquities; it is a storehouse of political wisdom for him who will take the trouble to understand. Every boy and girl who has reached a fair degree of maturity can be trained to interpret the past in terms of the present in the light of the past. And unless histcly shall come to serve this broadly social purpose in cur high schools, it will find itself with the has beens of pedagogical tradition in the educational junkheap.—J. Lyn Barnard. In the June Woman’s Home Companion appears a page entitled, “The Exchange," in which various contributors report housekeeping suggestions that they have developed out of practical experience. A New Jersey woman contributes the following: "To assure tenderness in a chicken fricassee or beef en casserole (In which latter dish one can use the cheaper cuts of beef) you need only to put in a tablespoonful of vinegar before cooking.” An ignoniinious end marks the career of the Holland, the first modern submarine owned by this country. Perfected by John J. Holland, the little vessel was sold to the government a number of years ago. The craft was fifty-three feet in length, with a displacement of seventy-five tons, compared with the modern submarine of 1,000 tons, which the government has decided to build. One of the features of the boat was the aerial gun in the bow. which could throw a shell of high explosives nearly a mile. All that remains of the Holland lies filled with sand and water in the Delaware river. —Argonaut. In the June American Magazine Ring W. Lardner writes another amusing baseball story. This njontli he discusses Ty Cobb, the famous Detroit baseball player who came into the big league from Georgia. Following is an extract from what Lardner writes about Cobb: “All my life I have been bearin’ about the slow, easy-goin’ southerner. Well, Ty's easy-goin' all right—like a million-dol-lar tourin’ car. But if southerners is slow, he must be kiddin’ us when he says he was born down south. He must have came from up where Doc Cook pretty near got to. You say you's heard ball players talk about how lucky he was. Yes, he is lucky. But it’s because he makes his own luck. If he’s got horseshoes, he’s his own blacksmith. You got to have the ability first, and the luck’ll string along with you. Look at Connie Mack and John D and some o' them fellas.”

HOLY ROLLERS WERE ACCUSED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) gan and lifting her eyes heavenward, with mind lifted f<r above the earthly cares of the world and her husband, with his poor deterted wife and four hungry, sick children in Bluffton, the throng parted and a little woman made her way out into the little open directly in front of the organist. The crowd, morbid with curiosity, immediately closed in and surged forward to listen. They did not wait long. With upraised hand the little Bluffton mother burst forth. "Here Is the woman who broke up my home,” site blazed forth, as she pointed at Margaret at the organ, while the husba id of both women stood by. And ahe spoke as with a tongue of fire, cutting and scorching. She called Margaret names of ail descriptions and told the full story of her wrongs.. The Holy Rollers attempted io drown her voice by singing, but the audience took up the refrain against them and took the part of the Bluffton mother. The Holy Rollers attempted to make a speecli vindicating themselves. but could not be heard. The Bluffton woman was given the poor, and for a quarter of an hour her piercing voice wailed out her story. Many of the crowd seemed to be in perfect sympathy with her, and sanctioned her story with shouts of “Glory, ’ “Hallelujah,” yip-yips, in imitation of the silenced Holy Rollers until the affair became a veritable riot. Some who did not even hear the woman’s words or know what the cause of the disturbance -waa, joined with the others in upholding her. Now and then, cries of “get a rope” could be heard, and still she spoke on. Then again, some one called out, “Make her man pass the hat to take a collection for his first wife.” Finally the Holy Rollers made an attempt to move on. They rolled up the organ and rolled it out through the crowd. The crowd made way, but closed in and followed them, screaming and hurrahing and yip-yipping in derision. The mob included several hundred of the best citizens of the town, as well as others, and proceeied down Second street, north. Now and then came the refrain, “Get a rope." The Holy Rollers -“ducked” into the Hunsicker & Miller case, and presently the police bell rang, as they called for police protection. The officials soon arrived on the scene and escorted the party of Holy Rollers north. They rolled on until they reached the Fullenkamp built-in entrance, where the Holy Rollers were driven in and the officials kept guard. Although there was little danger of violence to the party they evidently thought so, and the mob laughed and yelled, anj screamed, and surged and pressed to get a good view of the Rollers. The attempt tit disperse the mob was unsuccessful until it was announced that they were going to turn on the hose. At this point the fire department's automobile truck came clanging down the street with ringing bells, and laid the hose the entire length of the street, to the corner, where it was attached. The mob dispersed and the hose was not used, but the crowd soon gathered again. Finally the way was cleared enough for the Rollers to proceed and they did so, the officers still accompanying them. They were escorted across the Monroe street river bridge and then on to the park home. The mob accompanied them to the bridge, but stopped whfen ordered by the officers. The Holy Rollers maintained their air of martyrdom and sang and hallelujahed as they marched, evidently thinking they were enduring for a good cause, as were the Christian martyrs of old. A thousand to fifteen hundred men, women and children crowded the streets and watched the changing scenes. Traffic was stopped and ev-’n the traction car was held up several minutes, due to the jam in frnt of the Fullenkampjjtore, but it was a rather good-natured crowd, mostly composed of people who wanted to see what was going on and there was never any serious danger of any one being injured excepting by the surging of the crowd, it is likely the incident will break up the meetings which it is said were scheduled to continue six weeks. It is said several of the Free Lovers left town this morning and it is probable they will seek other fields of labor. further away from Mrs. Shaneyfelt.

As a fiver stimulator, it’s great. It’s a perfect substitute lot ordinary calomel (mercury); in fact, it’s better, because its action is gentle instead of severe and irritating — and it leaves no mean, disagreeable aftereffects. Physicians recognize this and prescribe may-apple root (podophyllin, they call it) daily. Combined with four other standard, all-vegetable remedies, mayapple root may now be had at most any druggist’s in convenient sugarcoated tablet form by asking for Sentanel Laxatives. If you forget the name, ask for the box that has the picture of the soldier on it. These tablets are small, easy to take and are really wonderful little performers. They quickly clean out the poisons that are causing you headache, constipation, sour stomach, biliousness, dizzy spells, bad breath and coated tongue. They are mild. They never gripe. And they are a bowel tonic as well as a cleanser and liver regulator. A 10c box should last one several weeks. A Physician’s trial package (4 doses) will be mailed you free if you write mentioning this advertisement. The Sentanel Remedies Co., 802 Madison Ave., Covington, Ky. 9— Democrat Want Ads Pay.
