Kankakee Valley Review. Charles Henry Thompson was born in the state of Ohio, Juno Sth, 1843, and died at his home In DeMotte, Jasper county, Indiana, Saturday, December 2, 1911. at the age of 68 years, 6 months and 24 days.

From the close of the war and until the death of his wife on July 11, 1907, they lived a model and happy life. On May 4, 1910, he was again married to Mrs.'Rosa V. Stell by Rev. Harper, of Rensselaer. Ind. In the year 1873 he was converted and united with the M. E. church in Newton county, and about two years later he transferred his membership to DeMotte M. E. church, where his name remains on the record as a member and believer in the faith. He was a good citizen, a loving father and husband.

THe BISHOP AND THE DRUGGIST

To the. Young Man’s Disappointment the Joke Was on Him. One day a bishop chanced into the shop of a druggist who was very fond of a joke—on somebody else. The druggist, wishing to have a joke al the bishop’s expense, asked: ference between an ass and a bishop?" The bishop could not "Well,” said the druggist, smiling all over, “an ass carries its cross (burden) upon its back, but a bishop carries bls cross (of gold) on*kls breast" "Very good,” replied the bishop, and then continued: "Now then, my friend, can you tell me the difference between an ass and a druggist?” After some hesitation the druggist answered: "No, Mr, I canV “Neither can I,” retorted the bishop as he walked out

Poet and Fool.

This story of Alexis Plron, the French poet and epigrammist, is told by the writer of “French Men of Letters.” Plron was unfortunate enough to be arrested one night by a watchman in the streets of Paris, and was taken the following morning before the lleutenint of police, who haughtily interrogated him concerning his business or profession. “I am a poet,” was the reply. J “Oh, Ho! a poet, are you?” said the official. “I have a brother who is a poet.” ’ ,X “Then we are quits,” rejoined Plron, “for I have a brother who is a fool.”—King.

They Had Theirs Off.

Little Sue Brown was allowed to stand on the staircase and feast her eyes on the beautifully dressed decollete ladies at her mother’s party. Presently she beckoned to her mother and anxiously whispered: “Mbther, may I take off my guimpe?” “Mercy, ho/’ said her mother; "it is the middle of winter, and you would take your death of cold.” “Well," said Sue regretfully, “look there; Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Smith have theirs off.” —Exchange. —

A Sure Thing.

A doctor who posed as something of a wit was passing a stone-cutter’s yard, when he stopped to speak to the proprietor, who was at work on a tombstone. “Ah," said the doctor. “I suppose when you hear some one is ill you get ready for contingencies; though, ot course, I suppose, you never go beyond the words, ‘ln memory of " "Well, that all depends,” was the response. “If you be a-doctoriug of the patient I goes right cm.”- —Harper’s Weekly.

“Here, waiter, there’s a cockroach tn this soup,” angrily exclaimed the customer in the restaurant.

He Lasted Well.

They were in the family portrait section of the gallery, and it seemed to Miss Golightly that her English visitor was deeply impressed. “Yes, these are all my ancestors,** she said, proudly. “Now, this is my great-great-grandfather, when he was a young num, of course. Isn’t he handsome? My grandfather used to tell my mother that his grandfather—that’s this One—was a splendid looking man as long as he lived, and as popular with women as with men becapse he was such a hero. I guess he was! Why, he never fought in a battle that he didn’t lose an arm of a leg or something, from being right In front of everybody. He was in twenty-three engagements!” —Youth’s Companion.'

HOW FOOLS PROPOSE.

T had no idea you were an authoress.” “Nor is she one, Mr. Grey,” broke in Miss Winter sharply. “There is, not the slightest reason for my niecft to go in tor guch a thing. Though she only does it tor amusement, Diana knows is quite against my wishes.” “What is the ardcle about?" asked the young millionaire, quizxicaliy. “On what subject is Miss Diana Leyland expected to expatiate?” Di’s pretty lips parted with a ajnile. “1 have to write a column afid a half qu ‘How Men propose,’ ” she said demurely. “Not really?” .laughing outright. ‘ Weil I must congratulate the editor m ids. write t of—sb much experience!*’ Di pouted, - , ( ■ . “I have come toa standstill. I don’t know how-to go on.” z 4 “Do you -mean to tay that a description oi each and all of your own love ettalrs will not fill up a column- and a half?” “You see, there is -such a want of originality,” said Di thoughtfully. ‘T want Io write something out of the ordinary . I have to describe the diflercer.t. 'methods of the individual—-the-xich and the poor man, man and the fool. .Now, how can I tell,’’ laughing, “how a fool proposes*’ and her eyes threw him a challenging glance. - -i

“I should have thought,” he said, jocularly, “that all your victims were of that calibre.” ‘Wot at all,". answered Di, by nd means abashed. “They were some of rhe wisest men in the country. Now,” slowly, -‘if you were to propose to me—" ; “My dear Dl!“ broke in her aunt, horror struck. ’ “Just to show me how they do it,” went c»iC Di, taking no notice .of the interruption. . '' ; “Di! Di!” cried -her aunt. “My dear- Mr. Grey, please forgive, lier; her tongue does run away Witn her so.” Grey laugh ted shortly. “1 am quite convinced,” he said, “that I should provide excellent copy lor you—if I did such a thing. So, onihe whole” —with some assurance—“i Prefer to wait until your article is written and sent off."Miss Winter’s old eyes gleamed. Surely, surely, the great amStion’ her life would be fulfilled, and her piece would be Mrs. Ronald Grey beiQre long, if only Di would mot spoil her chances by that sharp tongue of here! ' . Di was biting the end of "her pen Perhaps in her heart she was just as ambitious as her aunt. Somehow 1 she felt that Rouhld Grey was and that she would marry hij&aa the end; but it wo:iud«d her amour propre and set her 'pride aflame when he talked in such A confident tone.

"There is Captain Arbuthnot’* said Donald, breaking in on her thoughts. “Why not lead him on, and see how he proposes? You could not find a bigger fool in Christendom.” “Captain Arbuthnot?” repeated Di. vaguely. "Why. he is the man who set next me at dinner last night, and could not say n uord.” Ronald smiled.again. Il« Lad been on bl's other side, and he'h'Rew time she had not given her left-baud neigubor much opportunity. “He is the butt of his regiment,” he said laxlly. "If you want u» find out ‘how fools propose,’ make him fall in love with you.” “it would be an excellent Idea.” said DI, eyes sparkling. She shut up her manuscript hastily. “I will wait to finish it." she said, “until Captain Arbuthnot proposes, and then I will give the experience for the benefit bf the world.’’ "Diana,” said her aunt quickly, "1 hope you will do no such thing. Pray leave the poor young man alone. Really, you have such peculiar ideas— I don't know what girls are coming to nowaday 1 !?* "It is not my peculiar Idea; It is Mr. Grey's.’’ retorted Di saucily. "And now I must go and find Captain Arbuthnot, and begin the siege at once. You see’’ —her face dimpling “1 have only a week before 1 send off my manuscript.” "Diana, I love you! Will you marry me?" The moment had come—the moment for which Mlse Leyland had boon scheming the last week. Captain Arbuthnot and she were alone in the drawing room. She was experiencing "how fools propose.” She clasped and unclasped her hands restlessly. "Why do you tove me?" she asked at last, after what seemed a long pause. “Why do I love you? Because you are so pure. Because of the pureness sbinlGg la your eyes. Because otoh. because I cannot help loving you, though heaven knows I am not worthy of you!” Perhaps It was only the gathering darkness which made Di’g fUce look so pale. True! Pure?
