RENSSELAER, INDIANA. - * ■■-'■''■ ■'■■■'■■'L'-=S=L-=== Experimenter* are developing the Mingles* bee. —4The season for Sunday accidents 1* at hand. Look out! The coinage of a two-and-a-half cent piece would mean cheaper campaign cigars. At a bull fight in France a bull killed a toreador, but usually the result is less gratifying. The world is certainly growing better. Nobody has killed this year’s peach crop yet Mary had a little lamb, and In this respect she stood one ahead of the Wall street of today. Advocates of long sheets on hotel beds think that a tall man should not be punished for hi* size. i ' The season is arriving at the pivotal date for prices of coal to go down and prices of ice to go up. A Pennsylvania man filled his pipe with gunpowder, thinking It was tobacco. And then it happened. At any rate, infant paralysis does not appear to have made much headway among our Infant industries. Baseball can be played in any language, though some noisy persons in the bleachers will never believe it possible. One out of every ten couples married in lowa in 1910 were divorced. Evidently marriage is not always a failure. The news that there is $300,000 lying in the government treasury unclaimed 4s sure to start a new crop of claims. Archery is going to be revived this summer, but among girls with thin arms it will be no more popular than playing on the harp. Mankind has been raising chickens for 6,000 years or so, and has not yet produced a king of the poultry yard with a soporific voice. An Insane old maid in Broooklyn has been found to posess $1,000,000, so doubtless she Is an old maid by choice and not by insanity. How big London is is Illustrated again, by the fact that the city’s total debt la officially reported to be a little more than $555,000,000. One of the deplorable features of the British coronation is that it will cause a flock of alleged poems to be perpetrated on the innocent public. A child labor law which would make it illegal for a boy to drive home the cows would undoubtedly be quite popular among the youth of our rural district*. ■ > Boston women school teachers ask higher pay than men because it costs them more to live. If that is not a sign of the times we are painfully mistaken. Not less Important and worthy of ceremony than the christening of the baby, the amateur gardener thinks, is the arrival of the first mess of radishes. A Chicago woman wants a divorce because her husband called another lady "Morning Glory” and "Honey Bunch. The “Morning Glory" might have been overlooked, but “Honey Bunch!” Oh, putty! Thieves tn Harlem stole a grand piano from a house. There must have been harmony ih the gang to get away with a prize like that, and probably there was music in the air when the owner discovered his loss. Flies and mosquitoes are to pass a strenuous summer, if all the plans for crusades against them are carried into effect What they are preparing for the public may only be surmised, but unless the plans materialize it wv? also be something strenuous. Scientists say flies hate blue paint and will not remain where the walla have been coated with it If your kitchen is painted blue and flies continue to congregate there it Is probably because your flies are colorblind. London Is to have a dock that will accommodate vessels 1,000 feet long. Of course Germany will have to proceed to construct one for 1,100 foot vessels. But that is more sensible than the Dread naught competition, ■lnce the docks will be useful for other purposes than those of destruction. A noted philanthropist, in denouncing ."the devil of sneering cynicism" who sits In the editorial chairs of modern Journalism, declares that newspapers need young men who prefer sls a week and to stay honest than SSO a week to doing otherwise. Why newspapers alone need a band of such noble martyrs he doe* not specify. An Ohio woman in a divorce suit claims that her husband ha* not spoken to her in seven year*.

UPLIFT OF CIOCIARE

Wealthy Italian Women Unite to Aid Models. 1 Spanish Stairs, Where Natives Waited for Passing Artist, Must Go— Will Be Taught to Read, Write and Sew. Rome. —The world's fair ih this cUy this summer will induce a multitude of people to visit Rome who have never beheld its glories, and it will also be a stimulus for other tourists to revisit the scene* of their former travels. Whether they be artists of laymen. If they have ever spent any length of time in Rome one of the most vivid impressions they retain must be the Spanish stairs and the groups of gayly dressed models or cioclare, as they are called, who, when not engaged by any artist, make this spot a rendezvous. Here they would congregate, some chatting, others droning in an undertone their weird folk songs, all leisurely waiting for the appearance of a passing artist who might be in search of a subject for his picture. The Spanish stairs was the bureau of engagement for the cioclare. But all this is to pas*. A number of women, headed by the Princess Ruspoli, Baroness Lombardo del Gtudice, and the Marquise de Targlnani Herman, have, decided that the care-free cioclare must be instructed, when not posing, in the practical things of life, that this open-air retreat was pernicious to good morals and right living, and in consequence they have formed a benevolent society to undertake the problem of teaching them the rudiments of learning—for not one of them can read or write—and Instruct them in sewing. Numerous inducements are held out to attract the Indolent ciociare to the school. If she works two consecutive hours in the morning the reward for diligence entitles her to a midday luncheon at the expense of the society. Then, after she has been taught to make different articles of clothing, the material for which has been given to her, she is allowed to keep the finished garment, or else she is paid for her labor. Princess Ruspoli and the other members of the committee personally superintend this big work, and all their energies are directed toward making It a permanent success.

JAP WOULD LAUGH AT HOBBLE

Swedish Envoy to Japan and China, on Way From Orient, Talks of Women’s New Dress. Chicago.—“l believe the Japanese women, who are considered the most sensibly dressed of any women in the world, would laugh at the American hobble skirt." Gustav O. Wallenberg. Swedish minister to Japan and China, in Chicago the other day on bls way to his native country, made that statement. Mr. Wallenberg reserved his personal opinion on the harem, hobble and other fashions that greeted him here after an absence of several years since hi* last visit in the United State*. , t ”1 am Immensely pleased with everything and everybody here.” he said. ~I was never happier than when I caught sight of Unde Sam’s country once more, and will say for Chicago that It Is wonderful—wonderful The dty becomes greater every year." Mr. Wallenberg said Chicagoans are holding their own in th* trade in the orient • » "Americans seem to be on the ground floor in the industrial outlook In the far east” be said.

LEIPSIC AS SEEN FROM AN AIRSHIP

The ciociare, or children of the field, a* they are named, are never seen outside of southern Italy, for they never migrate. The sobriquet of ciociare came from their sandals, which are called "clccie,” a name finally given to the section from where they come—between Naples and Rome. The dress of one differ* from that of another In color only. Each wear* the velvet bodice mellowed by age, the bright silk shawl draped over a white cotton blouse, the voluminous skirt, and the fancy apron with Its elaborate wool embroidery. The young boys are equally picturesque in their knee trousers of blue or .red velveteen, short jackets of the same stuff, a soft felt hat set coquettishly on one side of the head, protecting the long mass of blue-black hair. Even the old men, with green or purple clothe* and long cape cloaks, keep up the illusion of living old masters. In these days of compulsory education one can hardly realize the ignorance that exists among these ravlshingly beautiful ciociare. Many of the fairly intelligent people in Italy cannot read nor write, so that a lack of even a smattering of book knowledge 1* nqt a matter of surprise, but the ciociare’* intellectual horizon does not extend farther than that of an American child of three. They seem to live from day to day, like birds of the air, careless and unhampered, with no thought of the morrow.

PUPIL TALLER THAN TEACHER

Arrested by Truant Officer Flfteen-Year-Old Miss Declares She Could Spank Instructor. New York.—Rather than face the teasing schoolmates who are two feet or more shorter than she, fifteen-year-old Molly Vogel braved the anger of her parents, defied the power of th* truant officer and stayed away from school. She was arraigned in the Gate* avenue court. Brooklyn, before Magistrate O'Reilly on complaint of Mary Brennan, attending officer. When Mrs. Vogel was asked by the magistrate if her daughter was in court she replied: “Ye*, she I* back there.” O'Reilly, looking toward th* rear of the room, *aw two girl* seated.

Thoma* Jone* of Frankford was robbed of every particle of clothing he wore and left In the wood* by the vagrant*, who escaped.

TEXAN NOT AFRAID OF BEES

Charles Potchenlek Appears to Hav< Unusual Control Over Busy Little Honey Gatherer*. San Antonio, Tex. —Charles Potchenlck, employed by the Maverick apiaries near this city, appears to have uni usual control over bees. He handles them wrlth as much apparent ease a* one would in playing with kittens or a harmless pet. He is used to their ways and appears absolutely oblivious to the fact that they can sting. While working with them he goes bare-armed and bare faced and pays no attention to the insects as they crawl over his exposed hands and arms or pile up in great clumps on his face. Recently he had a picture taken holding a small limb in his teeth on which a swarm had settled. The bees formed a kind of long beard hanging below his waist and his entire face was covered with those that crawled from the limb. Old beekeepers say that his feats in handling bees are th* most remarkable in the world. He claims he has not been stung in two years.

Will Bottle Up Wind.

St. Louis. —Peter Homishak has invented a machine to conserve wind power and three other men have joined with him to put it on the market in St. Louis. They propose to build a factory in St. Louis, where they think the supply of wind is practically Inexhaustible.

the little one rise at the call of "Molly Vogel!" He gasped when the bigger one stepped out in the aisle. Molly would have no difficulty in passing as an adult. Besides being tall she Is decidedly plump. "Judge, if you had to stay in a classroom and you the biggest girl In th* school, what would you do?” pleaded Molly. O’Reilly shook his head, as if to say he had never contemplated facing such a situation personally. "How can I learn when I know I’m a foot taller than my teacher and g half foot taller than the principal?” wailed Molly. "One of my teachers, q man. is so small I could spank him. And anyway, judge, I thought I’d been to school for the 120 days I had to go. But they say I must go for thirty-fiv* days more.” Magistrate O’Reilly shook hl* head sadly, but decided the best way would be for th* girl to go to school for th* remaining days of compulsory attetf dance.

EXCUSE FOR HIS BLUNDERING

Meal Walter, True to the End, Had Been Working Under Pretty / Heavy Handicap, He was an immaculate servant. To , watch him serve a salad was to watch an artist at work. To hear his subjdued accents was a lesson in the art 'of voice-production. He never slipped, he never smiled, and hta mutton-chop whiskers marked him as one of the old and faithful stock. But one evening, to the surprise of His master, be showed unaccountable signs of nervousness. When the chicken came on, he confused it with the pheasant. He served everything in the wrong order, made blunder after blunder, and put a final touch to his shame by upsetting the salt over the only superstitious member of the party. Then, at last, when the ladies had retired to the drawing room-he touched his. master on the shoulder. “I beg your parden, sir,” he said in a respectful undertone, “but could you manage to spare me now? My house is on fire.”

THE IDEA.

Peggy—Didn’t the lawyer know yon were an actress? Kitty—Gracious, no! He offered to get my divorce without any publicity.

"He actually had the nerve to ask me the other night how I managed to get that lovely tinge of auburn to my hair!” "Really? Well, why didn’t you box his ears?” asked Miss Slimm. “Why, I only had my Easter hatbox handy, and that wasn’t big enough,” said Miss Wrathy.—Harper’s Weekly.

What Was She Wearing?

The new fireman was telling hl* wife about the fire. “It broke out at midnight in the Von Biffers’ house on .the avenue,” he said, “and just as we got there Miss Von Biffer came stumbling out of th* flames and smoke carrying her little niece all wrapped up in her arms. It was the bravest act I ever saw.” “What was she wearing?” Inquired the fireman’s wife.
