JOHN EGER ■ Ira Galbraith, of Ellensworth, 111., arrived here on the milk train last evening, only a short time after the funeral of his father, Sylvester Galbraith. V' " Wooden fibre and galvanized wash tubs, a good line of pails, and all kinds of cooking pans at the Home Grocery. Henry Wood fell from a cherry tree this morning and was considerably bruised but suffered no broken bones. He will probably be able to be out again tomorrow. Tunis Snip, Jr., son of the trustee of Keener township, left last week for South Dakota with a view to locating. If he-does not like it there he will continue on to the state of. Washington. Peter J. Smith, the big man with the big voice, is at the Princess tonight and being a local favorite will doubtless draw a large crowd. See advertisement and the picture subjects in The Republican. Mr. and Mrs. O. K. Rainier returned Sunday from an auto trip to Indianapolis to see his son, Rev. J. Ford Rainier, and they brought home their two grandsons, Louis and Paul Rainier, for a peek’s visit. Mrs. H. R. Wood, who recently underwent a surgical operation in a Chicago hospital, was strong enough to return home Monday, and feels very much improved over her condition prior to the operation. George Hurley and John Shesler left this morning for Huntley, Minn., where the former will work as a ditcher, and where John, who is a high school graduate of the 1913 class, will work on a farm for Charles Vickery. *T " ' J. W. Blacker, the Newland melon man, reports that he has 2 acres of watermelons and a half acre of cantelopes this year and that they are all looking unusually fine and that he expects to have a bumper crop. His melons have proven of a fine quality in previous years. Don Wright returned home Sunday evening from Chicago, where he had been with his mother, Mrs. C. P. Wright, who was operated on at the Streator hospital. She is getting along splendidly and much permanent relief is to result from the operation. Ben E. Wallace, circus king, having sold the Hagenbeek-Wallace show t 6 an Indiana syndicate, will on July 3rd return to Peru and become a full-fledged farmer. He has a magnificent estate there and Wallace’s bank account is so big that he can take things easy. Senator Works, of California, introduced his biH for a constitutional amendment to abolish the manufacture and sale of liquor in the United States. The 'bill excludes beer and wine for a time from the operation of the proposed amendment. Cherry canning is in full blast this week. There an abundant crop of fine fruit. Those who are hiring cherries picked are usually paying 2 cents per quart. Some are having them picked on the shares, which is better for the pickers, as they are worth from 6 to 8 cents a quart Best Laxative for the Aged Old men and women feel the need of a laxative more than young folks, but it must be safe and harmless and one which will not cause pain Dr. King’s New Life Pills are especially good for the aged, for they act promptly and easily. Price 25c Recommended by A. F. Long. The Rensselaer company team ended up sixth in the company teams of the state at the rifle match at Evansville. Sergeant Timmons. Corporal Cook an<l Private Horton arrived home Monday morning. Garland and Robinson remained made very creditable scores, but Cook and Horton did not do much. Garlan dand Robinson remained to take part in the governor’s match and also in the various competitive matches for the state team. CASTOR IA Fbr Twiknti and Children. Dm KM YnHtn Always Bwghf
Mis. Frank Maloy returned to Lowell this ; morning after a visit since yesterday with her mother, Mrs. Michael Eger and family. If you liiTA cherries to sell advertise them in The Republican classified column. Oiie lady did and sold all to one customer, while many others have called since that time. ■ T -■ ft Three stray dogs that have been roaming about town and menacing children and others were gathered in this morning-by Marshal Shesler and will be incinerated at thj light plant. Too much precaution can not be taken these days with dogs and, stray ones should be killed whether they show rabies indication or not. We believe that the rabies was effectually stamped out here by the active campaign in both the city and county two years and one year ago, and it is to be hoped that the dog muzzling law does not have to be enforced this year. It is the stray dogs that usually start trouble and the marshal and other officers should make quick dispatch of dogs that have no owners or on whieh taxes have not been paid. When baby suffers with eczema or some itching skin trouble, use Doan’s ointment. A little of/it goes a long way and it is safe for children. 50c a box at all stores. A “Dutch” lunch was given by a number of young men MOhday for Mallie Clark and -George Long, who are to depart the rank® of bachleorhood tomorrow. Thinking to subserve their strength for the various social activities of the week the principals made their get-away before the party had broken up and when their absence was noted the balance' of the party went in seach and a good part of the night was devoted to -the hunt,., the poor benedicts-to-be getting mighty little rest. Thinking that the city was being attacked a resident of South Cullen street called out the marshal and threats of arrest were made. All ended well, however, and the wellmeaning friends of the departing young men are snoozing .today in an effort to catch up their rest. Never can tell when you’ll mash a finger or suffer a cut, bruise, burn oi scald. Be prepared. Thousands rely on Dr. 1 Thomas’ Eclectic Oil. Tour drupgist sells it. 25c and 50c. Two very large goose eggs, each weighing 10 ounces, were left at The Republican office recently by Sol Norman, of Union township. The same day JB, H. Eilts, also of Union township, brought in a duck egg of about ordinary size but with a protuding end, resembling a short handle. Apparently some progressive duck is' trying to start a style of eggs with handles, so that they may be gathered with greater ease or possibly for the use of campers, in which case the egg could be roasted while the cook held on to the handle. If Mr. Eilts can get his duck to complete the invention so well begun and then teach the game to the other ducks on the farm, we believe'there will be a big demand for the eggs at a greatly increased price, for-there are several uses to which they could be placed where the old fashioned egg is a trifle faulty. If there is anything new in either goose or duck eggs it may be certain that Union township will be right in the front rank in developing it.
Ulcers and Skin Troubles If you are suffering with any old, running or fever sores, ulcers, boils, eczema or other skin troubles, get a box of Bufcklen’s Arnica Salve and you will get relief promptly. Mrs. Bruce Jones, of Birmingham, Ala., suffered from an ugly ulcer of nine months and Bucklen’s Arnica Salve cured her in two weeks. Will help you. Only 25c. Recommended by A F. Long.

CAVE DWELLERS ALL BLIND.
Animals That Um Underground Hava Sans!** (tor- -- r Heart** Thu undemtu m me cavga has a world at Its own. Animals as* San In subterranean caverns hoDowet eat b 7 streams, develop, reproduce and die while forever deprived at the sme light There la no cave mammal except a rat nor la there a cave bird There are no antmala that require mn**h nourishment Grottos with underground riven have -the most Ufa. Usually the subterranean life resembles tho general type* of the ooontry. It has entered the cave and become acclimated there, undergoing divers adaptive modifications. So we generally find, in modified forms, the life of our time: But In some caverns there seem to be the remains of an ancient animal life that has everywhere else disappeared from terrestrial rivers and lives only In certain caverns. The creatures of modern species that have adapted themselves to underground conditions are sharply separated from the light dwellers. Their skin Is whitish or transparent. Ths eye atrophies or disappears altogether. The optic nerve and the optic lobe disappear, leaving the brain profoundly modified. Other organa develop in proportion. Those of hearing, smell and touch become large. Sensitive hairs, long and coarse, appear all over the body.
The Doctor Outdone.
Scottish shrewdness Is occasionally overmatched by Irish wit The hand ful df people who Inhabit a certain lit tie island In the Atlantic, off the coast of Donegal, enjoy so much health and so little wealth that there Is no doctor on the spot In rare cases of emergency a physician is brought in a boat from the nearest village on ths mainland. On one ooc&Bion some islanders who were obliged to summon the doo tor found that he had gone to Dublin on business. As the case was un gent, they invoked the services of an other practitioner. This gentleman was a Scotsman, with the proverbial canniness of his race, and he declined to undertake the voyage unless he received his fee—a golden sovereign—in advance. There was no help for it, and the money was paid. The physician went - to the Island and attended to' the case. But when he inquired for a boat to take him away he found that not a boatman on the island would ferry him bade again for any less consideration than two pounds, paid In advance. The doctor had to part with the two sovereigns and to admit that he had been beaten at hls own game.
How Lightning Kills.
The cause of death by lightning la the sudden absorption of the electric current When a thundercloud which la highly charged with positive electricity hangs over a certain place, the earth beneath It becomes abnormally charged with the negative electric current and a man, animal f> r other object standing or lying directly beaeath, also partakes of the' last mentioned Influence. If, while the man, animal or other object is In this condition, a discharge takes place from the cloud above the restoration of the equilibrium will be sudden and violent or, in language that we can all understand, the negative current from the earth will rush op to Join the positive cloud current and in passing through the object which separates the two currents, if it be an animate thing, will do so with such force as to almost invariably produce Instant death. According to the above, which seems a tenable hypothesis, to say the least a person Is really “struck’’ by the ground current and not by the locked fury from above at all.
Disliked Publicity.
“Young man,” the rising statesman laid to the reporter, “newspaper notoriety is exceedingly distasteful to nut rut since you have asked me to give pou some of the particulars of the leading events in my life I will romply. I do so, however, with great reluctance.” Here he took a typewritten sheet from a drawer in his lesk and handed it to the reporter. *1 suppose, of oourse,” he added, v“yon rill want my portrait, and, although I tislike anything that savours of undue publicity, I can do no lees than oomply with your wish." Here he took a large photograph from a pile In another drawer and gave it to the reporter. “Anecdotal matter concerning my•elf,” he added, “you will find in this printed leaflet, as well as particulars of my hobbles and tastes. When this ippears in print you may send me two hundred and fifty oopiea of the paper."
Children and Fools.
The boy wee an idiot Hie heed wee twice the normal size, and he would lit for hours without speaking. However, when he did emit a remark, it was sure to be startling, and couched h apt language. One day, an extremely “plain" old maid was celling in his mother. After a long period of apparently thoughtless silence, the idiot remarked suddenly, “Do you know, Mias Perkins, you are absolutety the homeliest woman I ever laid ny eyes upocT” In agony, the mother turned to hfan: ’Charlie, do not let me ever hear you make such a remark again," she cried, tererely. "Mother," quoth the idiot, 1 never shall have oeoeeien to."
St. Bernard Monastery.
At present the monastery at Bt Bernard costs abont stoo a yoar to keep up. This money is partly ool* looted in Switzerland and partly derived frorp the revenue of the monastic order.

WOM EN WITH IDEAS. They. Have Found Success in Badness and Many Occupations. A woman living near Pittsburg, Pa., earns her dally bread by raising Persian cots and selling them for from $25 to |SOO each. She has become an expert in breeding animals of class, and frequently makes large sales to wealthy cat fandera. StSl another woman, the wife at a Pennsylvania farmer, dean on the average 1600 a year by raising pigeons. Women policemen are becoming really quite commonplace. Uniontown, Penn., boasts a fair deputy sheriff, who is a graduate of a well known Southern college for women. Loo Angeles is said to have had the Brut policewoman ever appointed in this country, and Long Beach, a seashore town in the same state, has a

Wellesley graduate, a daughter of a millionaire, on Its force. In the business world In Gotham there are two women —and maybe more —who occupy unique positions. One of them id employed 'by a number of wholesale millinery drew goods houses to entertain women buyers from different parts of the country. She entertains them at dinner and then takes them to the theatre, charging every item up on her expense account, of course, to the house employing her in each Instance. Her Individual! charge is approximately one-fourth of the total expense. The other woman makes a business of being discharged from the big store in which she is “employed” once or a dozen times a day If occasion demands. When a haughty, pompous customer complains of negligence, or impertinence, or what-not on the part of a clerk, the woman in question is summoned to the front office as the one in charge of that particular department, given a good dressing down before the angry customer and peremptorily discharged. For the men, there is a youth who acts in the same capacity. Not infrequently both of them are discharged over a dozen times in a single day. Another unique profession is that of flower doctor. In these days “milady” must have her floral decorations lust so and her corsage highly scented; therefore, it is up to human ingenuity to make perfect where nature has failed. So there are men who remove inperfect portions of delicate flowers, paste together fragile blooms and scent violets and roses that are not as fragrant as they should be. —E. R. Padgett
Hints For Household.
Scatter unslaked lime round the corners of the cellar; this will absorb any damp and dispel insects. A large clean marble boiled In milk, porridge, custards, sauces, will automatically do the stirring as the liquid bolls, and so prevent burning. You can clean white paint with warn water, using a little whiting on the washcloth and rinsing afterward with clear water. To prevent white fabrics, such as tulle or silk evening gowns, choice lace or crepe shawls, from becoming yellow when packed away, sprinkle bits of white wax freely among The folds. To remove the smell of fresh paint, ptt a pall of cold water in the room and change it every two or three hours. A few drops of lavender scattered through a bookcase in a dosed room will save a library from mold in dun# weather. Soak new brooms In rtroog hot salt water before using; thin toughens the bristles and makes ths brooms last longer. V t

I know not what 1 do: I wrought at that, I wrought at this, The shuttle still perforce I throw; But If aright or If amiss The web reveals not, held to view. What do I know?
