WOMEN OF COREAN COURT.

Great Reduction in Their Number-. Influence They Once Exerted. The visit of three Corean court fit dies to Japan is an indication of the striking changes that have resulted from the Japanese occupation of tne Hermit Kingdom. Two years ago there were no fewer than 1,800 ladies in waiting, now there are only 100. This wholesale reduction naturally created consternation, and there was much lamentation among those whose services were dispensed with. Their lot, however, does not seem to have been ‘.altogether enviable, appears that it nas been the custom to take girls into the court from the age o) 10, and thenceforth throughout the whole period of their natural li.ves they were never allowed to leave the precincts of the palace, so that thej lived in absolute ignorance of the outside world. The few who accompanied the Em peror on his recent tour gave evidence of the timidity which had resulted from their* long confinement, for they could hardly be persuaded to enter the train, and they finally did so with manifest trepidation. Hitherto the influence of these ladies at court has been very great. Having constant access to the ear of the Sovereign, on the one hand, and being, on the other, accessible tc •ill the intriguing influences that prevailed in the unwholesome atmosphere of the court, their power exceeded even that of Ministers of State —London Telegraph.

Sunflower Philosophy.

Whenever any little thing hurts a man he says it hurts just as though some one had cut out his heart with a knife. ■ ■ About the wisest looking thing in the world is a country boy who has been boarding in town three or four months and studying law. The women folks in a church" have their first grave doubt of their pastor’s sincerity when he marries a woman belonging to some other church. ‘‘She,” the Young Things are always saying of some Older Thing, “has the money to buy good clothes and doesn't look good in them.’’ People manage to keep all other family gossip private except when they have been married more than once. This little history always leaks' out There is not much demand for men who are able to earn $1.25 a day, but men who are able to earn $3, $4, $5 and $6 a day are in brisk demand. When the young take up cold baths and sleeping out of doors, it is because they have heard it is good for the complexion, but older people follow reforms of this kind for health’s sake. “If it were not for just one little thing.” we heard an inventor say once “I would have the greatest invention in the world.” That one little thing it the trouble in every man’s life.— Atchison (Kan.) Globe.

Bees and Sparrows Fight for Tree

A fight between a half dozen English sparrows and a swarm of bees for th.possession of an old tree on the laws of the Serrill house, Main street was witnessed today by a number of interested spectators. The colony ol bees swarmed around the tree and dis covering a hole about forty feet from the ground flew in. The first of th< army, which filled the dir like a miniature cloud, had hardly entered ths hole before the sparrows came out ruffling their neck feathers and chattering with anger. There were six sparrows living Id the trees and for five minutes they nut up a gallant fight for the possession of their home, but ihe bees wert too much far. them and after a time they slowly flew off, fighting to tne last.—Philadelphia Press.

Saved by Dog’s Warming.

James A. Grant, of Bloomfield, N. J. was sleeping soundly at 3 a. m„ when his dog Gyp. a rat-terrier, scratched at his bedroom door. Grant got up thinking the house might be on fire He had hardly left the room to investigate when the ceiling of the bedroom fell in, burying the bed beneath a half ton of broken wood and plastering. Grant cannot account for the dog's warning.—New-York American.

HANGING GROVE.

William pnd Carl Erb went to Harvey, 111., Friday fox a visit with their grandmother. Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Armstrong visited with Mr. and Mrs. George R. Robinson Sunday. Carl Bowers returned to his home at Salem Thursday, after an extended visit with Clyde Fulk. Misses Hazel Drake and Lizzie Hooker went to Monticello Saturday to attend Old Settlers’ meeting. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Ott and family, of Barkley, and Mr. and Mrs. Shaffer, of Rensselaer, visited at Thomas McDonald’s Sunday. They came over in Mr. Ott’s new Maxwell touring car. Next Saturday is the fourth and last quarterly meeting at Barkley. Those who have, not yet paid in their quarterage will please do so this week, as we do not want to be delinquent at the close of the conference year. The ice cream supper at McCoysburg was not much of a success. Only ten gallons of cream was sold and the remaining five gallons were sold out Sunday at cost. Cold weather and the busy threshing season is attributed as the cause for the small crowd. The crowd was large enough, had it been a warm night, to have used all the cream they had. The John Herr ditching machine threw some sparks of fire at the Fisher farm last Thursday as they were on their way to Monon and if it had not been for the timely appearance of Jos. Stewart on the scene, the whole set of buildings would have been burned. Water was carried in buckets, and by the use of a ladder, the blaze was extinguished before it had gained much headway. This is the second fire that has been started recently. A couple of weeks ago the ’kitchen roof at C. W. Bussel’s was set on fire by sparks from the flue, but Mrs. Bussell set the ladder up and extinguished the flames with a bucket of water.

Obituary of Thomas Smith.

Thomas Smith, son of James and Catherine (Coghill) Smith, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Alvin Clark, of Lee, August 23, 1910, at an advanced age past 81 years. He was married to Mary A. Culp, April 14, 1861. To this union were born four children, Isabel, Ruth A., George R„ and Hugh T,., Ruth A. having died September 30, 1883, and Hugh L. July 10, 1890. George R. now resides in Wilson Creek, Wash. Mr. Smith had suffered with poor health for years, but uncomplainingly went his round of duty, although his mind wandered from the cause of weakness and old age the last few weeks of his “life, yet when rational consecrated himself to God and many times knelt in prayer with great devoutness, this being almost his last act. He often expressed his desire to be with the Lord. He leaves behind to mourn his departure his wife, two children, six grandchildren, one great grandchild, also one half sister, Mrs. Louisa Foulks, of Milroy, and two half brothers, Mr. Robert Meadows, of Monon, and Mr. George Meadows, of Watseka, Hl., besides many other relatives and friends. Jesus, Thou art all compassion, Pure unbounded love Thou art; Visit us with Thy salvation; Enter every mourning heart.

Hiram McFerron, a Columbus nurseryman, believes he has been struck by prosperity. While husking sweet corn he found six ears in one husk. One ear was of the usual size. The five others were small, but perfectly developed. In addition to his freak corn, McFerron has been raising Irish potatoes on top of the ground and has excellent prospects for a second crop of strawberries.

Mary Bauscher of Huntington, was shot in the neck Tuesday, supposedly by some boy in the neighborhood, and died a few minutes later. Mrs. Bauscher, who was about 50 years old, was seated on the porch of her home, peeling peaches, at the time she was injured. Boys near her home have been in the habit of shooting English sparrows and it is supposed that a stray bullet was responsible for the woman’s death.

Mrs. Harden, of McLean, 111., formerly a well-known resident of Nashville, Ind., was burned to death at her home Monday when she poured kerosene on a wood fire which she thought had quit burning. Live coals remained in the stove and when the kerosene touched them an explosion followed, setting fire to Mrs. Harden’s clothing. The body was burned almost beyond recognition.
