The mystery surrounding the death by poisoning last Monday of Roy and Herbert Myers, the small sons of William Myers of Indianapolis, who were at first thought to have died as the result of eating cheap candy Easter eggs, apparently was solved.

A single one of the tablets which Myers said he left lying in a dish, contained enough poison to kill a child, it was said. -

The Baryphone is a new invention which is on a fairway of revolutionizing the telephone system. As is well known, the American telephone is often very unsatisfactory, but the drawbacks are wholly eliminated by the Baryphone, which makes conversations on the longest distances just as clear as on short circuits, as the sound is carried to both ears and all noise excluded. Persons hard of hearing, who have hitherto been prohibited from using the telephone, can now use it with the aid of the Baryphone, which also will permit two persons to hear the message without the use of double telephone. The Baryphone is the only simple, practical and effective sound intensifier in existence and is incomparably superior to all others, especially as it leaves the hand free for annotations during the conversation.

CLAY WORK AND SONGS Only those who lived during the civil war can realize the power and influence exercised by the song writers of the time. Henry Clay Work, who was born at Middletown, Connecticut, in 1832, was imprisoned in Missiuri for nelping a fugitive slave to escape. He was a printer by trade and wrote "Kingdom Coming.” "Babylon is Fallen,” and in his “Come Home, Dear Father, Come Home,” was a temperance sermon that never has seemed to lose its plaintive appeal. He was the author of “Grandfather’s Clock,” and at one time member of the music firm of Root & Cady, Chicago. His songs had a great vogue in their time and still continue in the melodies of the old days. • Several of Work’s famous old songs appear in “Heart Songs” now offered by this paper to its readers.
