Indiana Farmer Eulogizes the Mule; Doesn’t Mention His Kick.

| A writer in the Indiana Farmer has a good word to say for the mulesomething that so rarely happens that we reproduce his remarks: “Because he Is the most tireless worker on the farm. He never gets excited in a heavy pull. He eats less than a horse, but does more work. He is always as good as cash in the bank. He never falls through a hole In a bridge and generally keeps out of danger. He la an excellent saddle animal, If you know how to saddle him. His feet stand bard roads better than those of a horse, He is more Intelligent than a horse. He is never In love but tends strictly to business all of the time. * He la never sick but once, and then he diea. But whoever saw a dead mule since the war? He never stops to fight flies as a horse does, because his hide la tougher. He la Just as gentle as a horse, if he has not been spoiled in breaking. His age cuts little figure in a sale; nobody cares much bow old a mule is. He will bring front 6150 to 6200 when he is full grown if he Is big and smooth and strong.” Now let the mule haters remain silent! .

Far Trade—l6-Inch Square Picture for Three Old Hens.

Crown Point Btar. Two Chicago men, who have been bere other times, are lit this vicinity again and have been for some time, reaping a reward, and it is legitimate, too. They ship from the city a wagon load of highly colored framed pictures, about 16 inches square, and here they -'hire a livery rig and go forth every morning Into the rural districts and trade pictures with the farmers’ wives for chickens. They offer a picture—the pick of the lot—for three hens, which they usually get, and If they can’t make the deal they take two, and sometimes one. Even three ordinary hens look trifling to many to give for a framed picture, but they. don’t realise the pictures only cost 40 cents and that every good slxed hen is worth close to a (foliar. It is said that many times after selling their chickens, here at the market price that they have made a profit for the day of from ten to twenty dollars, and it is quite probable the farthers. as well as themselves, are pleased with the deal.

Editor Does Not Favor Easy Means of Getting Divorce.

Morocco Courier. The one evil In particular which has grown rapidly in recent years is the divorce evil and the present diversities in state laws have served as an encouragment to those who wish to destroy, undermine or misuse the saefedness of the marriage tie. For instance, when a married couple finds they cannot get a divorce in their own state, they usually go to a neighboring state and probably get a divorce, and if wot, certainly at Reno, Nevada, and they then marry whom they wish on their return to their own state and laugh at the state laws. One feature of the present convention of gover-

nore has been to initiate a movement which has been discussed tor a number of years, namely, the passing 6f uniform state laws on this subject, or else the placing of this subject entirely in the hands of the federal government, which, of course, would insure a perfect uhitormity of laws on this most important question.

Popular, But “Bad Form.”

Bickering. Girls may not mean anything when they argue before a third person, but the listener is just as uncomfortable as though the disputants were at daggers drawn. Especially poor taste is it tor one to argue with her fiance or husband in public.

Bragging. What If you are a belle, have hosts of suitors, and trunks full of fine clothes The girl of good taste allows the world to discover her popularity and good fortune, she does not thrust them upon It Sponging. Some girls have the notion that the world owes them a good time, and they snatch pleasure at the expense of their friends with no thought of return. The girl who is ««4rfljs out of change, who proposes gaylties for which others pay, who accepts favors and is churlish about favoring, la worse than bad form, she is almost dishonest

There Is at least one covey of quail in Bartholomew county that seems to know that it is protected by law amt tor that reason is unafraid.

Indiana’s Early Orchards.

The Indiana State Horticultural society, behind the movement for the apple show in Indianapolis, opening November 6, is one of the oldest and most substantial institutfons in the state, it having for seventy-five years been a highly important factor in the development of the Hoosier land. Before Johnny Appleseed, the father of Indiana apple orchards, was in his grave in 1847, the society was at its work *of developing the state’s fruit resources, and the coming show will really be a celebration of its diamond jubilee and the most elaborate exposition it has ever held. In promoting apple culture, the society has, as the years have gone by, had to contend with constantly Increasing odds in the way of orchard enemies, which have not only, ravaged the orchards, but discouraged the growers until they learned how to combat these evil**":

The first orchards planted in the middle west were started by Johhny Appleseed, or John Chapman, who obtained his seed from the cider mills of western Pennsylvania and scattered them along the streams and through the woods ot the Indiana wilderness. From his day to this it has been evident to members of the society that Indiana has both soil and climate for frnlt culture, and what is nesded now is to revive the spirit and determination of the pioneers who brought the first orchards into bearing. TWs revival is expected to come through the apple show. Henry Ward Beecher, then living in Indianapolis, in 1843 stated there were 18 nurseries in the state, selling apple trees at twenty cents each and pear trees at twenty cents each, and ding a good business, while the long summers, brilliantly clear atmosphere, and great warmth and dryness during the toll ripening months, give our fruit great site, color and flavor. When the society toet In 1844, 180 weto

FOUR BITES OF A CHERRY.

By George Folsom.

How a Genius Collected |40»000 At the Rate of $10,090 a Clip s —and Kept It.

Copyright, The Frank A. Munsey Co. o—— • “Let the case alone for a few days. Cossett may wonder why we don’t report on his card, and look you up. Then he may be pushed into giving more details. If he doesn’t help us we are- as good as done. All the professionals seem to be accounted for, and the robberies must have been done by outsiders. .£■ “These young men are clever. When a clue touches one it doesn’t fit the other. Unfortunately, the clues are not reversible, like Linden’s coat- Tes, Dempster, we’ll drop it for a few days, unless Mr. Cossett gives us a new start” ' • \ : ■ • • ; * * "Well, Mr. Fenton,” cried Linden, the evening of the day following Dempster’s report, “the third bite of the cherry is an accomplished fact.”

“Linden, I hope you will excuse my abbreviation of the usual title,” said the lawyer, “I am really interested in you. I may safely say that you are the only criminal in whom I have ever been, interested, sentimentally. But I will never be at ease until I turn you out an acquitted man, or see you board a Hudson River train chained to a plain-clothes man. You deal me shock after shock. Tell me the worst ol this last exploit.”. * , VHa, ha!” laughed Linden, “you would never be able to guess. The third bite of the cherrynvas offered to, and accepted by, Miss Nellia^Cossett.” “In other words, Mr. Cossett gave Miss Cossett ten thousand dollars?” “Exactly—her share of the estate 1 have been fighting for.* . “What about conditions *’ said the lawyer, ftho, having knowledge of Mr. Cossett’s suspicions of Linden—suspicions which 'professional etiquette fofbade his divulging to the young man—was thinking that there must be a trap somewhere. _ “No conditions whatever., He said that her coming mairiage interested him greatly, but, before he' gays her the money, he tried to turn her against me.” * t “How do you account for that?” said the lawyer. my being on the side of the

other Cossetts, whom he evidently hates as much as he loves Miss Cossett. That is the only reason I can find.” " #'M “And you are sure—pardon me for pressing the matter —that he did not give some definite reason?" “Miss Cossett’s manner didn’t suggest anything serious. She naturally did not wish to see any very bad motive in his action, and it seems that at the end he frankly said that he might, after ail, be mistaken in saying that I was not worthy of her.” “And I have something else to tell you,” continued Linden; “I think I am my apartment-house inquiring for a man with dark-red hair who is a

friend, he said, of mine. Then a man used my name at my tailor's. Said he admired my gray clothes, and wanted some made the same way. My tailor may have told all he knows, but that would not be enough to give me Into their hands/' / “You don’t seem to be alarmed?” said the lawyer. ' . v'o am alarmed,” returned Linden, “but they cannot get far on what they know. My alarm Is a sort of general "alarm. One bit of it is due to a, mistake I made.”' “A mistake?” echoed the lawyer. “Yes; you knbw I gave Mr. Cossett my address after the second affair. Now, Creel, myVousip, who is in my office, and who was the wheelman of the first robbery, writes a very queer hand. I have often practised it for fun, and, in my effort, in the restaurant, to disguise my own hand, I used his. I wrote to Mr. Cossett a few days ago, at Miss Cossett’s request, telling him of our intended marriage. I carelessly used a hand more like Creel’s than my own, and he has both specimens.” * r, “That accounts for Mr. Cossett’s ‘new developments which, make It undesirable, etc.,”’ said the lawyer to himself.,. Then, aloud, “And what you think will be the outcome of that foolish proceeding ” —— “I don’t know,’” replied Linden, carelessly. “Mr. Cossett happened to see a specimen of my real handwriting which Miss CoSsett had. He called her attention to the difference between It and the writing in my letter. His edriosity is aroused, at least** “And the police have the card, of course?” said the lawyer. '

“They have had it several days, I expect,” replied Linden, “hence the shadowing. But it isn’t enough. It was written under Mr. Cossett’s very nose by a man totally unlike Creel. They wouldn’t dare take'Creel on that. We’re safe enough at present.” “Suppose Mr. Cossett should give them your letter in Creel’s hand. What then?” • r “It he does, Creel will have to swear he wrote it tor me, that’s all. I don’t deny there is danger in the mistake I made, but no great danger until they get closer .to the actual facts.” “Your optimism cheers me,” said Mr. Fenton, as Linden rose to go, “but if you are going to complete the eating of the cherry, please get it over with as quickly as possible.” “I am as determined as ever to go to the end,” replied Linden grimly. “And, as I don’t anticipate that Mr J Cossett will make another donation just at present, I am going to settle the matter with the least possible delay, if only to ease the strain my good lawyelr is laboring under."
