When s passenger train rolling across the prairies of Indians, comes to the Illinois state line, the brakeman or train porter carefully conceals the tin cups at the water tanks, for In Illinois the public drinking cup is an outlaw. While Indiana’s health lawß are pointed as models by many states here are several specific instances in which Indiana is behind other states, and the abolition of the public drinking cup is one of them. Probably the taking effect of the law in our slater state will stir Indiana to action on this line. Anyone who has noticed for a short time the various uses of the drinking cup at the public drinking place will readily admit it is about the most unsanitary convenience that modern progressiveness tolerates. Black, white and yellow succeed each other, aad the delicate schoolgirls may follow the town drunkard in regaling herself from It. It is used for quenching thirst, taking medicine or whisky, or possibly cleaning a pair of false tenth, sad, if not chained to its post, its realm of usefulness is even more varied. . •: ' It may require some time to educate the people to carry individual drinksooner the education is begun the better for the people of Indiana. .

HE WAS NOT THANKFUL
My neighbor Cooley suffered a good deal last winter from rheumatism la his breast, and his wife was badly frightened about It for fear it should end in consumption. Cooley could not be Induced to try any remedy tar the trouble, and Mrs. Cooley was nearly worried to death about It. At last she determined to try strategy. Bbe made a dry mustard plantar and one night while he was asleep she sewed It upon the Inside of his undershirt, so that it would Just cover the rheumatic place. Cooley dressed himself in the morning, wholly unsuspicious of the presence of the plaster, and went downstairs. At the breakfast table, while he was talking to his wife, he suddenly stopped, looked cross-eyed, and a spasm bf pain passed over his face. Then he took up the thread of the conversation agaifi and want on. He was in the midst of an explanation of the political situation, when all at once be cessed again, grew red in the face and exclaimed: “I wonder what in the No. it can’t be anything wrong.” Mrs. Cooley asked what was the matter, and Cooley said: “O, it's that Infernal old rheumatism again; come back awful. But I never felt It exactly the same way before. Kinder stings me." Mrs. Cooley said sbe was sorry. Thsn Mr. Cooley began again, and was Just showing her how the ravages of the grasshoppers in the west, and the potato-bug in the east, would affect the election by making the people discontented, and so likely to strike at the party in power, when he suddenly dropped the subject, and Jumping up, eaid: “Thunder and lightning! what’s that? Ouch! O. Moses! I feel’s if I had a shoveful of hot coals inside my undershirt.” , “Must be that rheumatism, getting worse,” said Mrs. Cooley sympathetically. “0, gracious, no! It’s something worse than rheumatism. Feels like burning Into my skin. Ouch! Ow-wow-wow! It’s awful! • I can’t stand it another minute. I believe it’s cholera, or something, and I’m going to die!” “Do try to be calm, Mr. Cooley/*^ “Calm!" How can a man be calm with a volcano boiling over under hie shirt. Go ’way from here. Get out of the way, quick, while I go upstairs and undress. Murder-r-r-rs but it hurts! Let me get out. quick!” Then he rushed up to the bedroom and stripped off his clothes. His cheat was the color of a boiled lobster; but he couldn’t for the life of him tell what was the matter. Then his eye rested upon something white on his shirt. He picked up the garment and examined it. Ten minutes later he came slowly downstairs with a dry mustard plaster in his hand, while thunder clothed his brow. Going up to Mrs. Cooley, he shook the plaster under her nose, sad said in a auppressed voice: “Did you put that thing in my clothes?” “I did it for the best, John,” she said. “I thought—” “Oh. nsver mind what you thought. You’ve taken the bark clean off of my bosom, so I’m as raw ss a sirloin steak, and I’ll probably never be well again as long as I live. That lets you out. You play no more tricks like that on ms. Now, mind Than ha slammed the door and went out. Mrs. Cooley doesn’t know to this day exactly what effect the grasshoppers are going to have on the election. —N. W. Weekly.

SPAIN’S WEALTHY FAMILIES GO TO OTHER COUNTRIES
Political Conditions Have Brought About Serious Conditions.
MADRID, via Hendaye—(Spl.)— Alarm concerning Spain’s politics: future has reached a point where, after transferring as much of their investments as p&ssible abroad, th« wealthier class of people are getting their own persons and their, families out of the country as fast as they can. In the larger cities, like Madrid, Barcelona and Seville, hardly any are left of th eso-called “best people” and the effect of their disappearance is being severaly felt in business circles.
The reactionary military and clerical elements are In full control oi the government at present and, as the Republicans had expected in the event that the reactionaries came into power, the repressive measures they are adopting are driving the people wild with rage. The radical groups are. In fact, rapidly organizing for an open attack on the monarchy. Indeed, Pablo Iglesias plainly told the Cortes April 7 what to expect, in the speech In which he said that unless the Ferrer case was reopened and justice done, the masses would “take the case Into the streets and carry on the struggle with arms in their hands and their chestß bare.” Though the commissioned army officers are the rank and file are almost wholly anti-mon-archist.
Making Life on Farm Easier
if ACHINES that almost think” iVJL is a term that may with reason be applied to many forms of improved farm machinery wherein human control has truly been reduced to a minimum. The machines perform their various functions automatically, almost as if they had minds of their own. About all the operator has to do is to feed and to steer them. - \
For instance, the “broadcast seeder,” which is employed for planting grass and grain. This is attached to an ordinary wagon. The only human co-operation it requires is the keeping of its hopper full. It will also distribute all manner of dry commercial fertilizers, putting them precisely where they will be of the utmost benefit.
For such grains as must be planted systematically in rows or in hills, there is provided a v mechanlcal grain drill. Among Its numerous attachments may be mentioned a land measurer, something like a cyclometer, which records the acreage planted. To cover the seed that it has planted it has a system of hoes that are adjusted to work straight or “zig-zag.” A variant of this apparatus weeds as well as sows. Another remarkable farm machine that comes within the category of “thinking” apparatus is the bean planter. It drills the hole in the ground, plants the beans, covers them, and marks the position of the next row at one operation. It will even alternate corn with beans, turn and turn about', or plant corn in place of beans, distribute fertilizer, and cover everything impartially. The potato planter picks up the potato and looks it over;' or seems to, cuts it into halves, quarters or any number of parts, separates the eyes, and removes the seed ends. It plants whole potatoes or parts of them as near together or as far apart as the judgmen{ of the man on the driving seat suggests. Having dropped the seed, it covers it, fertilizes if, tucks it In like a youngster put to bed, and measures off the next row mathematical accuracy. Certain vegetables, notably tomatoes, cabbages, cauliflower, celery, lettuce, and some others, need to be started in cold frames' and transplanted for the practical business of growing. For this purpose there is a plant setting machine that will handle a sprout with an almost loving care, establish It in its new environment, gather the earth tenderly about its roots, and give it a copious drink of water from a tank it carries. It will cover from four to six acres a day.
The various operations generally known as “cultivating” were once the bane of the farmer's existence. Now he has s machine for each operation of crop tending, with s driver’s seat as comfortable aa that of a motor car. The machines seem to know a weed from a crop plant, and while they will snatch the weed out by the roots they pahs the plant unharmed, provided, 01 course, it is growing In its proper place. When the crop la ready tar gathering, American mechanism is.at its best The perfection of the modern reaper and hinder needs no comment.

Reporter Some Times has Difficulty to Get the News.
The personal items which appear in the newspapers are eagerly scanned by nearly every reader. They are not items of importance, in a great news sense, and yet they are one of the most interesting departments of the country newspaper and a never failing source of supply of material for the alleged humorists on the city papers. Usually three or four lines suffices to tell the story, but those little personal items are sometimes a source of annoyance to the person who is trying to gather them. It is not infrequently that one has to apply the force pump something after this manner: , ■ ' . / “Who were your guests,, last Sunday?” "Oh, some folks from Beanville" “What were their names?” “Case.” “The given name, please.” “Emma.” “Mistress or Miss?” “Mistress.” “Anyone with her?” “Yes, her daughter.” More business of learning daughter’s name and whether married or single. Then you get another tip as follows: “We had some more company, too.” “Who was it, please “' —— “Mr. Jones.”
Then you go through the same performance to get the given name and address, and a dozen other questions that finally elicit the information that Mrs. Jones was there also, and the additional fact that their daughter and her husband were also of the party. Occasionally it happens that some of the party have done something worth while, or have had an adventure, or met with good luck or misfortune that lends interest to the simple announcement of the visit, but it takes a lot of pumping to get the facts. Those items are a necessary part of the paper each week and a great many persons are very obliging regarding s;uch information and in a straightforward way give the essential -'details without hesitation. But there are enough of the other kind to almost give the reporter the blind staggers at times.
Don’t be backward about giving information to the newspapers. If it happens that for the best interests of all concerned an item should not be printed there are none more ready to keep the fact in confidence. But when you can help a bit, don’t force the reporter to use the force pump.
Lawyers Looking for Judgeship Warren-Benton Counties Circuit
Attica Press.
The lawyers and politicians of Warren and Benton counties are looking forward with no little anticipation to the race between Ele Stansbury and Grant Hall for the judgeship. There are two or three others mentioned in connection with the nomination but the indications are that the real race will be between these two. That there has been a great change in the feeling toward Ele in his own county since he was turned down for Judge Saunderson cannot be denied and those with their finger on the political pulse in Warren assert that he will have the full support of his county in the convention.
Victor Ringer is said to be the other aspirant from Williamsport and if be gets into the race no telling what complications may arise.
