EVEN THE BIG BOYS BOOT ’EM OCCASIONALLY It’s not always the small town papers that pull the funny boners, for oceasionally' the big town papers boot one that puts them in the foolish class. But they never say anything about themselves, naturally, they’re always waiting to jump on the small town papers. Up in Chicago, Illinois, where they publish the world’s greatest newspaper, The Tribune admits it they have B. L. T., the constructor of the linotype column, whose grave duties are to scan the small time papers in search of boners and republish them for the edification of the public. Perhaps Bertram, or whatever his name is, will find something in the world’s greatest newspaper of May 2, which runs like this: GOMPERS IS IMPROVING; JOHN D. WIRES REGRETS New York, May 1— Tonight’s bulletin from the bedside of- Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, who was seriously injured when a surface car ■collidedwith his taxicab, announced he was improving. John D. Rockefeller at Hot Springs, Va., among others wired his regrets.

FIVE YOUNG WOLVES FOUND IN MONON DITCH BANK Royal Brenneman of this place dug five young Wolves out of the Monon ditch bank about two miles north of town, Tuesday afternoon. The wolves are about two weeks old and look very much like shepherd pups. He will keep them as pets for a while and is using the bottle system of feeding. He failed to locate the mother wolf, but she may fall into one of Mr. Brenneman’s traps later. There seems to be many wolves in this vicinity. They are seen quite frequently in Hanging Grove, Jasper county, Beaver township, this county, and just recently Lewis Myers, who lives over the line in White county found a den with six young ones about ten days old.

LUXURY IN EARLY TRAVEL “Safety Barges’’ Instituted for Those Who Feared Hazard of Voyage on Hudson River. The frequency with which boilers blew up on the early Hudson river boats led to the use of what were known as “safety barges,” and these. In their day. were considered the utmost luxury in travel, comparable to the private cars of the magnates of today. The barges were boats with main and upper decks and were almost as large as the steamers which towvfd them. The. rabble rode on the steamers, inhaled the smells of the kitchen and the freight holds, endured the noise of the engines, and took the chances of explosions, while on the barges behind the elite traveled in luxurious state. Food was brought fropi the boat kitchen to the barge saloon over a gwaylng bridge between the vessels and was served with great aplomb under the direction of the harge captain, who was a noble figure-hi the setting. The upper decks of the barges were canopied and decked with flowers, with promenades and easy chairs from which, to view the scenery. At night the interiors were transformed into sleeping accommodations much the same as a modern Pullman, except that they were more commodious. Not the least attractive feature of these barges, according to a chronicler of their excellence, was “an elegant bar. most sumptuously supplied witli all that can be desired by the most fastidious and thirsty.” Recent news dispatches which tell of plans to establish floating cases on the ocean just outside the three-mile territorial limit when the nation goes dry. indicate that luxurious floating establishments somewhat Similar to these “safety barges” may again come into use.

SCIENTIST TELLS OF TRIUMPH Professor Claims to Have Perfected System for Underground and Submarine Messages. Speaking recently of his work for the navy, Prof. James R. Rogers, the inventor of a wireless system for underground and submarine transmission, stated: “Six or seven years ago, I began experiments with the transmission of electric impulses by the ground. They were renewed during the war with the audion bulb, which render* the receiving apparatus more sensitive. I first established contact with nearby points and before long received with perfect distinctness impulses sent from Europe. I placed my antennae in trenches radiating from a center and pointing by the compass toward the distant station from which I wished to receive. I demonstrated to the navy department that eight operators may receive at once from eight separate wires. My system was installed at New Orleans, the Great Lakes station, and Belmar. N. Y,, and is now used at the principal wifeless stations in the United States. I have found the best results with my wires buried six feet below the surface in damp ground. Some of my experiments were conducted In water 25 to 50 feet deep.”—Scientific American.

THAT BAD BACK. I ■! ■■ O Do you have a dull, steady ache in the small of the back—sharp, stabbing twinges when stooping or lifting—distressing urinary disorders? For bad back and weakened kidneys Rensselaer residents recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills. Read this Rensselaer statement. Joseph Smith, retired farmer, Van Rensselaer St., says, “I had weak kidneys for years. My back became stiff and sore and I have had to get up and down very carefully, because of the pain.

Doan’s Kidneys Pitts have always given me great relief.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that' Mr. Smith had.

Know Jim Hill? Nope; thought not, and that’s where we have it on you. Met him on the street this morning and he came and shoved out a big horny hand and says: “How’re yuh, old timer?” Some how or other the homely expression caused every cloud in the sky to take on a cherry aspect and we wished there were more folks in the world like Jim Hill. Jhjj Hill is one of these re-thatched, frec-kled-faced boys—one of Riley’s kind, you know, and once in his presence the whole atmosphere about you seems surcharged with ruralism. Jim has a heart as big as a watermelon, and we thought how fortunate he was that the old world had never been able to veneer him with those things which were never intended for us by our Maker. Wholesome —that’s the word best describing Jim Hill. Wish you knew him. You’d feel better. Electric wiring and supplies. Phone 113. Babcock Electric Co.
