DEATH CAUS THEM WAY

Rev.W.W, Martin and Family Called to Kokomo

The family of Rev. W. W. Martin, pastor of the Bradley M. E. church,Thursday morning received from Kokomo a notice of the death of Mrs. G. C. Martin of that city, who is a sister Mrs. W. W. Martin.f

The death occurred very suddenly and hence the relatives here had no warning of its approach until the- message was received this morning.

This is the first death in a family of eleven children, Mrs. Martin being the young-1'5': child of the entire family,'.- and her death came as a heavy blow to the relatives, which is always the case when the first link is broken in a family circle.

The family of Rev. Martin departed immediately for Ivokomo and will remain away until Saturday or longer] if necessary. Durring his absence the the revival will be under the management and charge of Miss Marshall and will be conducted along the same lines as heretofore.

The sympathy of the congregation and community goes out to Rev. Martin and his family in this their time of distress.

Tlie ^ncc In an Index.

The face is -an index to the state of one's physical well being. Symptoms of disease can be detected from it almost before the patient is aware that there is anything the matter. For in stance, excessive pallor indicates poor circulation and possible heart trouble. Incomplete exposure of the eyeballs, rendering the whites of the eyes visible during sleep, is a symptom of alt 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

A Kipling- Lament.

In Laurence Iluttoii's "Talks In a Library" he tells as follows of meeting Itudyard Kipling at a luncheon given to the latter by Richard WaMPQ 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 1 exchanged the traditional few formal words, and we drifted apart, but a moment or two afterward he placed himself on the arm of a chair in which I was sitting and said: 'T didn't real Ize, Hutton, when I met you a moment

you were. Dear old Wolcott

Balestier, your friend and mine, tried so hard and so many times to bring us together in London and elsewhere, and now he is gone, can't under* staqd it all. He died so suddenly and so far away we had so .,uch to say to each other, and now have got to wait so long before I can say It,'"

Shrewd Jabez Crowfutt

[Original.]

Jabe Crowfutt prided himself on his shrewdness. It has been said that genius is unconscious—that is, if oue has an especial gift he is unconscious of it, whereas if he thinks he possesses a gift he is usually mistaken. At anj rate, Jabez considered his faculty for making shrewd deal.-: wo pronounced that he left his wife i.v do all the work on his little farm ••while he traded in horseflesh, cattle and such live stock as farmers use. All the money that was made came from the woman's efforts.

One summer evening Jabez was smoking his pipe on his stoop when a man drove up in a buggy and asked if he could be accommodated with a sujv per and a bed for the night. Jabez was about to turn liim away when he noticed that the liorse he drove was built for speed. He at once coucei.ej the idea of getting the animal into his p^-session trading the poorer' in liis barn for it and acceded to the stranger's request. During the evening he pumped the owner of the animal to discover if he was aware of its value. The man did not appear to put much value on his horse, and Jabe thought if he could keep him in the house long enough he might make the trade.

Jabez had no difficulty in persuading the stranger to remain over a day, and, for the matter of that, he showed no disposition to depart at the end of a week or a month or six months. He was all this time making up his mind whether he wished to swap horses. Then Jabez told him to make up his mind or get out, whereupon the stranger swapped horses without any "to boot," and Jabez was delighted. The horse he gave was not worth .$50, while the oue he received he finally sold for $500. This fine bargain, the a be him hi the opinion that he was a bum trader.

One day the stranger told .Tibez that he was staying in the region for his health that he had been greatly bene fited and proposed to remain indefinitely. If Jabez would let him build r. small house on his premises he would pay a fine rental and turn over hi? house to Jabez without cost on his departure. Jabez was lighted. The stranger asked him to fix his owii rental, and Jabez named an enormous price considering that in a short time he was to have the building. The lessee consented at once.

Jabez supposed that as soon as the lease was signed the building would go up, but by the terms the lessor was entitled to put his structure wherever he pleased on Jabez's property. He spent several weeks making up his mind,, then astonished Jabez by choosing a spot which included the well. The wr-ll was about ten feet in the rear of .Tabes's dwelling, and the new structure would be disagreeably close, shutting off all light from the rear windows. Jabez protested, whereupon the lessor, instead of claiming his right under his lease, offered a handsome bonus, which satisfied Jabez and gave him great confidence in the way he managed his affairs also a certainty that the stranger was either crazy or a fool.

With the final payment, lumber began to arrive and a structure to go up over the well house. There were few windows and none in position where any one in the old house could look Into the new one. This made the architectural effect peculiar. In due time the building was finished and the stranger moved in. After that he stayed at home a great deal. Jabez wondered what he was doing in his house and one day -condescended to ask his wife what she thought about it. She replied that the stranger had paid enough to do what he Hlced. Then one day Jabez noticed a crack in his wall, but when he called his wife's attention to it she made light of it. Finally the hearthstone, which had lain on the ground in the same position for forty years, showed signs of sinking. Then Jabez began to suspect something was wrong.

After noticing this last peculiarity Jabez looked for the stranger to come out of his house to ask bim some questions. But the stranger did not come out. Jabez waited three days, then, thinking the man might have died, told bis wife that he proposed to open the door and investigate. The wife told him that be had best do so by all means, jabez went into the new bouse and found it filled with dirt. In the middle was the well out of which the dirt apPfcred to have come. Jabez looked down and saw that there was no water. In some way it had eitliei been turned off or the IIqw stopped al-. together. Jabez ran for a ladder aud, putting it down, descended and found a tunnel' running toward his house. Going through it, be came to an exca ration upward. Then he understood the settling of the hearth. Going back, he told his wife of the wonderful discovery he had made.

She burst out laughing. ,• as soon as the good woman could control her mirth she made the following confession: She had suspected the stranger from the first and had at last charged him with some especial design. I-Ie told her that if she would preserve cw)cy and uv. ui iiif way he would make-her foiiune. Upon her agreement to do so he had Imparted to her that Somewhere ov the premises, which had once belonged to a miser, was hidden a large sum of money. She had permitted him to get it In his own way, he agreeing to divide 1* with her.

At this point in her recital Mrs. Crow, futt took her husband to.a closet and opened a trunk, and Jabe? saw thaf It was full of money.
