This is an annual custom and is observed the world over without a break of any kind. o— :— Fifteen years ago, Henry Klus of Anderson, says the Muncie Star, then twenty-five years old, jestingly told his mother that he would use a small crevice in the wall of their home for a bank, in which to deposit odd pen-. nies, nickels and dimes. The crevice ; was a hole in the plastering which ( opened to a nook between the stud- j ding. It was his intention to keep up ' the practice lor ten years. At the end of ten years he decided to try it five f years longer. A few days ago when he went, as usual, to put some money in the hole in the wall, he discovered | that the nook was full and .he could j put in no more money. He then, with , a chisel and a saw, removed the plas j ter and lath from before his bank, and , the pile of money rolled out on the. floor. It took him two hours to count the odd change, which he found j amounted to $1,099.54. Klus stated

——<oJS— —■ that he had no idea until counting his t . money as to how uauch had depos ' tt«d ta th* odd bank. H* signified his Intention of buying real estate with < bka savings. In gbe whole lot of change only four twenty-five cent < pieces were found and nothing of a higher denomination. Mr. Klus, who conducts a green house along Uta Alexandria pike, just at the edge of i town, brought his money to a local i bank this afternoon, and it was all he could carry along. SPIDER BITE Causes Blood Poisoning to Set In on Arm of Dayton Barkley. Dayton Barkley, of Stop 15 on the Interurban, was in the city this morn- * ‘ ing, carrying his left arm in a sling, as a result of blood poisoning, which he, has been doctoring for the past week, ( it first coming from a spider bite. He was cutting corn, when the insect, no' ■ seen by Mr. Barkley, bit him on the J i hand, which soon afterward began to swell, causing him great pain. He • soon sought the advice of a physician, who stated that blood poisoning had ; set in, and with immediate attention i checked the spreading poison, but not before it had already reached the ele bow. Since receiving the bite he has a slept scarcely any. the arm giving him s severe pain and requiring much atten e tion. It it believed the swelling will • recede from now on and no other i- trouble result.
