Telephone No. 66 RALPH MOSS. The elect ion of Ralph Moss, Democrat, by a large majority in a district normally Republican by a good surplus. is illustrative of sentiment, not only in this district but in all the districts of the state. The people of Indiana want a change. It must he acknowledged that some of them were afraid of Itryan. The vicious personal attacks made upon him under "scare heads," the coercion of manufacturers and railroads, who said to them men that a vote for Bryan meant a vote for no work, had its effect. But the people did not want any more of the tariff nor the trusts, and they have seen to it that so far as Indiana was concerned, the men who will make the laws are pledged to reform the tariff downward and lo do some effective legislation in restraint of trust control in Washington and over the country at large. Mr. Moss Is an excellent example of the men chosen for that work. Unconnected in any way with corporations, a man who in less exalted positions has been true to the people, whose convictions on the, questions of the dav r.r5 ir>'>* Ci no* born ot political need, a man, in fact, of the greatest honesty and strength of purpose. He goes to Washington pledged to look carefully to the interests of the people, and we are confident that these pledges will not be forgoiton. as was the case with Watson, Landes and many Republican Congressmen. Putnam County congratulates itself upon the part played in tlie election of ibis man.

What It Showed the Man Who Smoked a Crest Deal. IDs friends knew that he would rather miss half an hour of a play Ilian cut short his after dinner cigar, and they were astonished when he announced that lie had quit smoking. “What's the trouble?" he was asked. "Opsonic lest.” lie replied gloomily, j “What in the world ia thai ‘‘I've been run down of late and feel- i Ing pretty blue. As there is consumption In my family, I consulted a specialist. He said 1 didn't have the disease yet, but he would tell me what my chances were of getting it. We are constantly breathing tuberculosis germs, he explained, hut healthy blood has the power to destroy them. So he took a drop of my blood and inoculated it with a certain number of germs. In half an hour he. examined it under the microscope and found that only half as many germs had been killed as should have been the case. Normal, healthy blood is said to have an opsonic test of 1<mi, so my test was only 5(). He advised me to build up my strength by sanitary living bits of fresh air day and night, plenty of sleep, wholesome food and moderation in work and pleasure.” “Where does smoking come In?” “He said that tobacco had an extraordinary effect in decreasing the power of the blood to destroy germs. Some men who smoko a great deal have an opsonic test of zero that is. their blood has no effect whatever on germs. I am fond of my cigar, but when a specialist levels an opsonic test all cocked and primed at your head and says. ‘Tobacco or your life.' what are you going to do but throw up your hands?”- New York Tribune.

DESOLATION ISLAND.

Kerguelen Land Is a Region of Perpetual Storms. Of all places on earth outside the arctic and antarctic regions Kerguelen Laud, in the Indian ocean, is the most isolated and inhospitable. Indeed, it is generally known to mariners not by its official title, but as Desolation isiund. Most nations have owned it by turns, but it has been sooner or later abandoned by them all as worthless, and this although it covers an area variously estimated at from 1.5iH) to ”.nnh square miles At | resent France Is in nominal possession of it, she having annexed It in is;i::. The soil is utterly barren. 1’iactl(•ally the whole of the Interior Is covered with snow fields of unknown depth, whence glaciers flow down to the sea. Where there are no snow fields there are morasses and hidden, treacherous mud holes. The climate is probably the worst In the world. Terrific tempests follow one another practically without ceasing and are accompanied by torrents of tee cold rain, hall, sleet and snow. The Challenger expedition spent a month there, during which time there were only three fine days. And this was in Decombor-.Tanuary, when it Is midsummer In those latitudes. Its discoverer. M. Kerguelen Trema rec, although at first he pi-ofi ssed to be enraptured with it. lived to confess that it was unfit for human habitation. "Not even Eskimos,” he exclaimed, “could exist there.”- Pearson’s.

When Duncan accepted Mrs. Harvey's invitation to Join her house party in the mountains that worthy lady was overjoyed. Here, indeed, was the very man she had been seeking a man whose name was on everybody's lips, a veritable lion, who would make her the envy of all her set. He was the man who had sjient a month in Lassa and who had talked with the grand lama himself, a drawing card of the highest magnitude. Mrs. Harvey spent a good half day in congratulating herself and wondering jusi how she had been able to manage It. She pictured him ns she had last seen him, a happy, exuberant, boyish young man who would entertain her other guests by tin* hour with most ah

Too Cheap. The class at kirk had ,'.'eeu reading tile story of Joseph and Ids brethren, and it came to the turn of the visiting minister to examine the boys. The replies to nil of his questions had been quick, intelligent and correct, such as; “What great crime did these sons of Jacob commit?” “They sold their brother Joseph.” “Quite correct. And for how much?” “Twenty pieces of silver.” “And what added to the cruelty and wickedness of these bad brothers?” A pause. “What made their treachery even more detestable and heinous?” Then a bright little fellow stretched out an eager band. “Well, my man?” "Please, sir, they selt him ower cheap.”

Very Nearly Trouble. “Horace, you don't love me ns yon used to.” “Not altogether, my dear. When we were first married I loved you for your beauty. Now I love you for your real worth, your many excellencies of mind and heart and for your”— “So. Horace Higgsworthy! You think I've got entirely over my good looks, do you? Let me tell you, sir”— “And for your unfailing sweetness of disposition, my dear.” Uncertain whether to go ahead nnd scold him just the same or to Indulge in a good cry, sin 1 compromised by doing neither and fell to darning his socks with renewed energy.

A Conundrum. Little Flora Mamma, you ain’t a girl, are you? Mamma Certainly not, my dear. I'm a woman. Little Flora But you were a little girl, weren't you? Mamma—Oh, yes, years ago. Little Flora—Well, where Is •the little girl now that you used to be? Chicago News.

sorbing anecdotes of his work, his travel and the dangers he had under gone. Duncan arrived duly. The guests, who were assembled on the wide ver atidn, saw Tim bring the big road car up to the steps, saw a bronzed, grave faced young man climb out and pune ttliously greet Mrs. Harvey as "Cousin Mary." If they had expected any signs of his far heralded exploits about him, any gray hairs on his bead or any marks of suffering upon his face, they were doomed to disappointment. Ho was fair haired, sleek, well groomed. Indeed, he looked much more like a prosperous business man on a week til'd vacation than a celebrity with whoso name two continents were ringing. At dinner that night Mrs. Harvey made her first attempt to draw him out. “Now, Ted,” she suggested us the coffee was served, "we’re all impatient to hear about it.” Dui’can looked surprised. “About wh.it. Cousin Mary?” be asked. “What, indeed?” she returned. "Your rec* nt triumph lu Lassa, of course.” Duncan actually blushed under his coat of tan and squirmed uneasily in his chair as he realized all the eyes at the table were upon him. "Oh. that!” he said. “It’s nothing— really nothing. It's not worth the telling." “But the papers said"— "The papers,” he interrupted; “the yellow sheets, you mean. Cousin Mary. They must have news. They’ll make something out of the most hopeless material.” “You talked with the grand luma. Tall OS about him. What dill be •ay?” Duncan laughed with some embarrassment. "Nice little chap, the lama. Youngish, he Is, with a lean face and keen eyes. We had quite a gossiping bee through an interpreter. Seemed most Interested In the color of my hair, the lama did. Wanted to know what made it yellow. 1 tried to tell him It was nature and not peroxide that did it, but the interpreter got all tangled up trying to put it right, and the lama’s face was like a graven image. I guess the thing didn’t go.” In self defense lie turned to the girl at his left. “What was your score on the links this afternoon?” be asked. “Forty one? Fine! Wish I could do as good as that.” As an attraction, an entertainer of Mrs. Harvey’s guests, Duncan proved a signal failure. He was taciturn, shy, 111 at ease. The guests on their part stood rather in awe of the big, grave young man with the slow smile nnd the thoughtful eyes. They imagined be found them trivial, not worth his efforts. When they were on the links or putting the horses to the hurdles behind the stables, lie took long solitary rumbles across the mountains. When they played bridge or danced in the evening, he sat alone on the veranda. smoking innumerable cigarettes. Mrs. Harvey, in frank disappointment, told herself ho was impossible. The usual game of bridge was in full swing one evening and Duncan was sitting quite alone on one end of the veranda, looking at the great hulk of the mountains looming dimly In the moonlight. He heard the door open softly, and, turning, he saw Eleanor Graydon coming toward him. Duncan’s pulses quickened. There was something about this tall, beautiful girl, with her cool voice

and her steady brown eyes, that he found most attractive most disquletingly attractive, indeed. Stic laughed s,,ftiy as she saw him there. “1 icsertci "' she taunted. “You and your po.c <.f siiliiude are getting on Mts. Harve nen es. i can see it. Really, I'm beginning to believe you conceited." Duncan drew up a chair. "Won’t you sit here for a mluute and watch these mountains with me?” said lie. "I’m— I’m”— lie paused. •a oa’re she prompted. “L mely, finished, with such evident slucerliy in his voice that the girl felt a little pang of remorse. "I presume > ■ u find us stupid,” said she, sitting down beside him. "After such it crowded life as yours has been all tiiis must be very tame.” “Tame?" he said, with sudden earnestness. “Tame? Oh, heavens, no!” “You give us that Impression any-

way.

“Do 1?” said he. He leaned forward In his chair. “Do you know how I feel here? Will you respect my secret If 1 tell you?” She nodded. “Well, then, like a fish out of water. I’m afraid honestly and actually afraid. You see. all my life I have traveled. I've been iuto the out of the way places ■ f the earth. I haven’t had time to cull h ate any of the graces of civilization \I1 In nil. I’m a barbarian, more or less. "I've looked forward to this to this coming here to Cousin Mary's and meeting all these people of your world more than I can tell you. But It has taught me something about myself. Much as I wish I lined in tills niche, I’m Impossible. As a participator in social functions in the accepted sense of the term I'm hopeless.” The girl looked at him with a quiet

smile.

“I’ll take hack that remark about your conceit and ask your forgiveness for it, too,” said she. “Oh, you boy! Yon great, big hearted, simple boy! You envy us in ibis silly, meaningless life of ours—you who have been doing something! 1 wish you might know how 1 envy that life of yours!” “Do you mean that —really?” he

cried.

“It is wi rth a thousand lives like ours.” “But 1 am Isolated. I am alone. I have cut myself off from all that I really want. I want to lie like these other men here. I want to talk to you ns they do -to be ns unafraid of you ns they are.” “That? Oh, pooh!” she laughed. “Toll me, when you go into an unknown country what do you do before you try to tLivij it—take a guide, don’t

you?"

“Yes.” . “Well, thai's what you must do here Take a guide. Then I'll warrant In a week In a day you'll know the ropes from beginning to end.” “A guide.'' he repeated musingly. “Yes, that's It. I must take a guide to show me into civilization. My work is done now. I want to live in my own country; therefore I must have that guide. I I there is only one I want, and I want her for life,” he stammered, but he looked at her with no uncertain light In his eyes. “I am presumptuous, I know. I am nothing but a barbarian, as 1 told you, but perhaps with (he guide It might he differ-

ent.”

Ho turned suddenly and ( aught her hand In his own. “Can I have that guide?” be asked unsteadily. The girl arose. Her face was scar let, but her eyes were looking Into his. “Ynur first lesson will he In bridge,” he said. “Come in and I'll teach

you “

But Duncan caught her in his arms and held her fast. "Yes, dear," she murmured. ”1 loved you from the very first, you were soso unspoiled by what I'm going to guide you Into.”

Japanese Calendar. Reference* is frequently made to the floral calendar of Japan. What this calendar is is explained in the Housekeep* r. The Japanese are extremely fond of all flowers, and they have therefore made a calendar from them, giving to each month a favorite blossom or leaf. Thus the pine, the emblem of lasting prosperity and life, belongs to January, and iis brunches are used to decorate all houses on New Year’s day. To February belong the blossoms of tho plum tree, which stand for purity, and the beautiful blossoms of the peach tree, lo which young girls are compared, are associated with the month of March. Next the cherry blossom, the most beloved of all flowers, is held to belong lo April, and to May are assigned t he gorgeous clusters of the wistaria vine. * The iris.flower, to which are compared the strength and beauty of young boys, belongs to June, and July has the glory and perfume of the water Illy. The flowering hibiscus tree attaches its beauty to the month of August, while September lays claim to the exquisite charm of the azalea. The royal flower of Japan, the chrysanthemum, which forms a part of the crest of tho imperial family, belongs lo the month of October, while to November is given the maple leaf, admired for Its decorative quality. Finally, with Dccointier is associated the beautiful camellia, which blooms in the gardens oven In the midst of snow.
