LOCAL FIRM'S "LIGHT" III
Little Wonder Light' Company Does Great Business, and Sells In All Parts of World.

And this is only a sample of one day's orders.

BETTER BABIES
The crusade for better babies has spread from coast to coast, and taken firm hold of American Mothers. Few wromen realize how much the ill health of the mother Influences the (inborn child, both physically and mentally. Women who suffer from mysterious pains, backache, nervousness, mental depression, headaches, »tc, should rely on Lydla E.

However, I believe we spread the name of Terre Haute in as man^ corners of the globe as any concern in the city. Our

ten to me. This poor little Mrs. Sutner has constituted ra* her mother confessor, and I am at my wits' end sometimes trying to think of wha.t to tell her to do, and she must have help. She is worrying herself into a decline, and she neds all her strength to meet her problems with." "What are her problems?" asked Nell. "Well, in the first place they are poor and dreadfully in debt, that is, considering what they have to pay with. The debt is not large in itself, only about three hundred dollars, but that 25 hard to save on a salary of eighty dollars a month, especially if they hove no managing capacity." "Well, my dear, she has shown great wisdom in putting you in charge of her finances. We all acknowledge you were a born financier." Nell playfully stuck her with her needle. "If that is the worst of their troubles, you will soon have them out of debt and on the higli read to prosperity." "This is no time for levity." O.ive shook her finger menacingly at Nell. "I wish finances, or lack of them, was all that was the matter, but alas, there is deep-seated family trouble." "And you are mixing in other people's rows? I surely would never have thought that like you, Olive." "My dear, do not Jump at conclu sions. This greatness was thrust up on me. The poor little woman broke down one day and sobbed out the whole story. She has no friends here, no one to go to, and it takes a stronger nature than hers to hear slighting treatment from a husband, financial worries, ill health, and loneliness in silence." "I do not yet see where I come in," interrupted Nell. "I am no good on earth when it comes to giving advice." "She has had advice enough to drown in. Now I want you to help me put a little cheer into her life. I want you and Jo Parsons to Join me in forming a little card club to meet whenever the spirit moves. We will have as Jolly times as possible and give her something pleasant to think about all day when she is alone. She is not much of a reader and her mind has got to be turned away from her troubles if she is to keep from a breakdown. Will you do it?" "Surely! You are always thinking of some new plan to make someone happy. Most people think only of themselves and the immediate clique to which they belong, but you find time for so many outside that little circle, and you think of ways to help them. When shall we bgin our little society "Right away. I will invite all of them to our house tonight and VDU can met the Sutners. We will have only tea and wafers, for if they entertain they cannot afford anything expensive." "Good idea," said Nell with approval. "Wo'll have feast of reason and flow of the soul." "Good-bye," called Olive as she sped clown the walk. "I'll call up, if it works out all right and everybody can come."

TERRE HAUTE TRIBUNE.
KAISER'S ELDEST SON AGAIN REPORTED DEAD
Rome Dispatch Says Papal Secretary of State Has Received Word Declared Authentic.
TURIN, Nov. 2.—Crown Prince Frederick William of Germany is dead, according to a Rome dispatch to the Gazetta del Popolo, whose correspondent asserts he was informed by a diplomat accredited to the Vatican that a message had been received by the papal secretary of the state in cipher. The diplomat is said to have refused details but to have assured the correspondent the news was authentic.
The last previous report of the death of the crown prince was in March last, although prior to that time he had frequently been reported killed.
JUDGE IMPOSES EXERCISE.
Sentences Culprit to Increase Chest Expansion to Four Inches. LOS ANGELES, Nov. 1.—Arthur Cole, who never took a cold bath nor endeavored to strengthen his muscles, was sentenced to increase his chest expansion to more than four inches within sixty days or return to the city jail and serve a 180-day sentence imposed by the police court.
When arraigned on a charge of vagrancy Police Judge Richardson inquired into the life habits of the man. When he learned of his failure to take any exercise he said: "You have lived like a woman."
Cole said he disliked to rough it in any way. "That is the cause of your trouble," said Justice Richardson. "You need exercise, more air, a life filled with more physical work. I do not think a jail sentence would benefit you, so I will sentence you to go into the mountains for two months. For sixty days you must arise daily and take thirty minutes of active calisthenics such as are taught on warships to the sailors. Breathing exercises are to be particularly attended to. "You must create an appetite, work with your hands, live the life of the open, and I want you to report here at the end of sixty days that I may take a measurement of your chest and note the increase in the expansion."
When his chest expansion was measured it was shown to be less than two inches.

Penny Wise and Pound Foolish
The cost of living makes ever7 woman look to see where she can save money, which, of course, ia sensible and proper if not carried too far.
In the case of food it" would b$ ifoolish to attempt to substitute sawdust for a breakfast food because it is cheaper. Everyone knows sawdust has no food value and its use would be a positive detriment to the health.
Royal Baking Powder, whioh iS made from cream of tartar, adds only healthful qualities to tha food.
The difference in cost of a fcan of biscuits or of a cake madd with Royal Baking Powder as compared with cheap alum or phosphate of lime powders is about on® cent, which is surely too small an amount to warrant the risk.
