Kntered as seeoiul-ciass matter August 1. ,.904, at the yiostolHoe nt Ortronlield. Indiana, under an act ot Congress. March 3.

TilK report that the McCordsville automobile factory employing fort}* men might be located at Greentield is of sufficient importance to our town to attract more than a passing notice. In the tirst place there are advantages about Greentield which should interest the men who own the automobile plant. The old paper mill buildings could be repaired with a small expense so as to make a good building for such a factory. The building is on a switch of the Pennsylvania railroad and is also connected with the I. & E. track. The Indianapolis, NewCastle & Toledo electric line proposes to run a spur to Greenfacilities

the objections heretofore urged against Greentield as a shipping point. The McCordsville factory is especially desirable to Greentield people for the reason that it is owned by two energetic Hancock county business men— voinig men who were born and grew to manhood within the confines ot our count)'. Mr. Prank Martindale is a hustling business man and owns a large tract of land in this county. Mr. Luther Frost is a son of Richard Frost, of Center township, and a son-in-law ot Dan I'Yi right of this city. Both men are closely allied with Hancock county by family and property ties and interests and if they should locate in Greentield would very probably locate permanently.' Both men are successful iu business and able financially to push their factory products. They are both thoroughly familiar with the automobile manufacture and also their sale. Mr. Frost has rare natural mechanical genius, and was well educated at Purdue university. Their business though giving lucrative employment to forty men at this time, promises to grow rapidly and eventually employ many times that many men. It is an institution very much to be desired and it is hoped that the men back of it will decide to locate in Greenfield. Greenfield needs factories and needs them bad.

Tuesday Afternoon Club.

Mrs. George Cooper entertain ed the Tuesday afternoon club at her country home, west of the city. There were sixteen ladies who took the two o'clock car. They were received by Mrs. Cooper and her daughters, Lois and Gertruid. A very pleasant afternoon was spent playing progressive euchre.

Refreshments were served and the ladies returned to their homes at 5:10.

HIS BflDOEEDS

More About Man Who Failed to Cash Check

AVade C. Fox appears to have quite a history as his Indianapo lis record is brought forth. Of course a man's worst traits are brought to light under these circumstances and nothing is ever said of auy good he may have done. It is said Fox passed a worthless check or two in Indianapolis several weeks ago and is wanted over there. The Indianapolis Sentinel says: "Fox was a tailor in the Traction Terminal building. He sold his establishment accordto his story, for $*5, getting a check which he cashed at the office of J. G. McCullough. When the paper proved worthless Fox appeared to be greatly surprised and at once paid apart of the of the money in cash, latter clearing away the debt. His action in this instance made it eas)7 for him to secure money for a §35 check on a firm in the Terminal building. Fox said he he had been a salesman by the firm and that the check was "expense'' money. He wished to apply the $35 in settling the remainder of the £85 raised on worthless paper a few days

Fox and his alleged forgeries will watch the Greentield case with much interest and will be prepared to act promptly in the event of a hitch in the case now pending there."

Mrs. Fox, the young wife,and her mother were over from Indianapolis Tuesday evening and spent two hours with Fox in the jail. It was a sorrowful scene. Mrs. Fox plead with the prosecuting attorney and Mr. Cooper to dismiss the prosecution but although they sympathized with the women it is beyond their power to grant her request. The publ:c is interested.

The most famous family of acrobats in America is without doubt the Nelsons, who make their first appearance on any State Fair ground during the fair at Indianapolis. This family includes eleven, ranging from the father down to a little girl hardly out of her toddling steps, and they do some wonderful feats. A feature of peculiar interest to the little folks will be Tony Rider's Monkey Circns, which will give performances on horizontal bars.

The Ward trio will give an uncommon performance. the three men doing athletic feats on ladders unsupported other than by their own strength. Primrose and Roll lot?, comedy Chinese acrobats, will be the chief laugh producers .of the vuudeville bill.

This is the most expensive array of outdoor talent the State Board of Agriculture ever engaged, the Nelson family alone costing the board $1,000 for the week at the coming fair.

The Knee Is an Index.

Tho face is mi index to the state of ©ne's physical well being. Symptoms of disease can he detected from it almost before the patient, is aware that there is anything the matter. For instance, excessive pallor indicates poor circulation and possible heart trouble. Incomplete exposure of the eyeballs, rendering the white* of the eyes visible during, sleep, is a .symptom of all acute and chronic diseases of a severe type. Twitching of the muscles is a herald of nervous exhaustion. Widening of the orifices of the nose with movements of the nostrils to and fro points to embarrassed breathing from disease of the lungs or channels leading thereto. Contraction of the brows indicates pain in the head. Sharpness in the nostrils is a symptom of pain in the chest. Bagging under the eyes, when not a facial characteristic, points to kidney trouble. Twitching of the eyelids associated with oscillation of the eyeballs or squinting, heralds tho visit of convulsions.--American Queen.

A Kipling' I.aiin-iil.

In Laurence Ilutton's "Talks In a Library" he tells as follows of meeting IJudyard Kipling at a luncheon given to the latter by Richard Watson Gilder. "Another engagement made me late, and I entered the room as the party was breaking up. I was introduced to Mr. Kipling, with whom I exchanged the traditional few formal words, and we drifted apart, but a moment or two afterward he placed himself 011 the arm of a chair in which I was sitting and said: 'I didn't realize, Hutton, when I met you a moment ago who you were. Dear old Woleott Balestier, your friend and mine, tried so hard and so many times to bring us together in London and elsewhere, and now lie is gone, and 1 can't understand it all. lie died so suddenly and so far away we had so much to say to each other, and now I have to wait so long before I can say it.'

An Ancient Tune.

"Wo Won't Go Home Till Morning" is not a modern song at least the air ts not modern, for it dates back to the times of the first Duke of Marlborough. It is the old French air of "Malbrouk s'en va-t-en guerre Dieu sait quant reviendra" ("Malbrouk has gone to the war the Lord knows when he will come home again"). The second verse hinted that the Duke of Marlborough would be a long time away. "II reviendra-z-a la I'tuples, ou a la Trinite" ("He will return at Easter or Trinity Sunday"). In south'Yorkshire, in England,^tliat air exists as a children's song:*

Mollie nrooks, she wont to bo shaved Mollie I-ii'ooks, she went to be shaved Moliio Brooks, she went to bo shaved and tho barber cut her ohin. "Mollie Brooks" is a corruption of Marlborough. ....

tember Smart Set, ir kind of story one read in the warm weatbC delightfully humorous frd" ginning to end. and, while so ot the situations are hilariously laughable, the author never oversteps the bounds of probability. Those readers who remember Miss Seawell's "Papa Bouchard"—and who does not which the same magazine published about fout }_ars ago, know what a pleasant hour is in store for them in this last piece of work. Miss Sea well has never given us a more rollicking and genuinely witty story, nor one so full of the very spirit of comedy.

Stephen French Whitman, who contributes a powerful short story called "Hashimoto'' to this number, is a name quite new to magazine readers yet this brief and vivid Japanese tale should win him many admirers. It is a long time since a more striking short story has appeared. Elizabeth Duer is always entertaining in "The Man on Horseback" she is at her best, and every reader will be quick to discover what famous person she had in mind when she wrote this little tale. "Studio Sweepings" by James L. Ford, is one of the keenest satires on bohemian New York which this clever author has produced. James Huneker is represented by a remarkable short story, which he has entitled "The Eighth Deadly Sin," and Henry Sydnor Harrison, in "The Measure of His Greatness." tells another Ware River Club tale, full of cleverness and truth. Frederick Trevor Hill, Ruth Kimball Gardiner, Catalina Paez and Cecil Carlisle Pangman have stories of refreshing originality, while Kate Mastersou contributes a short, entertaining story, called "The Masque of Venus,'' wherein she places under a white light many feminine foibles. There is the usual story in French, and much meritorious verse by Wallace Irwin, Mabel Earle, Theodosia Garrison, Edith M. Thomas, Madison Cawein, Arthur Stringer, William Griffith and others equally as well known. How the Smart Set maintains its high standard of excellence each month is one of the wonders of the magazine world.
