ABOUT THE SICK Mrs. Clem Hake, of Fort Wayne, was here yesterday for treatment at the Decatur hospital. She spent seven weeks here, at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Myers, and two weeks at the Decatur hospital in care of Drs. Clark during the time they were treating her. She hacT suffered a bruise on a leg some time ago in which the bone was injured. and it was necessary to scrape the bone. Treatment by Fort Wayne physicians failed to do her any good and she came here for the treatment, which made her affliction yield readily. She is making occasional trips here for continuance of the treatment, since her return to Fort Wayne last Thursday. ' Jacob Buhler, who has been ill for some time of diabetes, is better the last several days. He is able to be up a part of the time. Mrs. Etta Rinehart, who was operated upon last Thursday for the re- ’ inoval of the gall duct ‘and appendix, is getting along well at the Lutheran . hospital. Her case was quite serious but she is doing nicely. FAMED FOR ITS HOLY WELLS City of Benares, India, a Place of Peculiar Veneration for the Devout Pilgrim. Benares, "the city of 2,000 temples.” Is also the city of holy wells. A pilgrim tn Benares can put io a busy day making the rounds of these landmarks and complying with the ceremonies prescribed for those who would drink t from them. Only the devout Indian pilgrim would care to drink of the sacred wells, for custom says that flowers must be flung into most of them as peace offerings, and these decayed floral offerings tend to make the water unfit for drinking. The British govern- , j merit did clean up some of the most | holy and popular of the wells In the i Interests of sanitation. But the Hin- ' dpos were not pleased. They come ' hundreds of miles to enjoy the benefits .' of the holy water, taste, scent and all. I and they do not care to have It tarn- ■ pered with. . I The most holy of the wells is the Well of Knowledge, which stands near Benares’ most sacred shrine, the GolI den temple, and is said to be the dwellI ing place of a very important god. i The most mysterious is the Well of Fate. Any one who looks Into the Well I' of Fate exactly at noon and falls to see his shadow is said to be doomed to die I within six months. Os course, if the , silent prophecy is unfavorable, the ( spirits can usually be bought off by (offerings at the temple conveniently near by. In another well a snake god lives, nml still another Is dedicated to the spirit, of healing. Pilgrims not only drink of the water of this well, but also bathe in it to make sure of the water's power being transferred to them. Half a million pilgrims tour the hqly wells of Benares every year and drink enough of the water to stock up their systems with the germs of every disease known to India. MEMORY'S JOY AND SORROW To the Properly Balanced Mind the Scales Will Be Found About Evenly Arranged. It Is remembrance that makes ns human, remembrance that gives us ,■ present Immortality. Without memory . then- could be no progress, no advancing from low places to the I heights; for It is memory that brings t the past to us and gives us a certain i Immunity from the burdens of the | passing moment. i Not in childhood, perhaps, but at all other times memory is the mother of hope. It may be true, as Dante said and Tennyson echoed, that sorriiw’? , worst sorrow is to remember a hap- ! pier time: but against this we have to weigh the numberless joys that memory confers, the lessons it teaches us, the strength it gives us and tne coherence, the sense of completeness that it gives to our lives. i It is not well to live in memory only, unless in old age. when remembrance may bo the best treasure left to us. We can easily become morbid and weak by too continual a dwelling In the past: the present and the future both have their insistent claims. But any sane person knows that the abuse of good may always turn it into an evil, and remembrance can be no exception to this law. I VCTORY BONDS HERE. i . ictory bonds arc here. All denominations.
