said thit if “some one could have had any influence with Bell to compel him to ’fire’ Sam Perrott it might have helped a lot.” Other Democrats said the defeat of the state ticket was deserved by the party, since its leaders had been content at least tacitly to support the Bell machine as an element of the party in Indiana. These same Democrats agreed that the present election had so ruined chances of Democrats carrying Marion county in future elections that It would be imperative to oust the entire city hall gang from control of party machinery before any attempt could, be made to build up a new party machine here, which could be counted on even to hold its own in this
county.
Talk along these lines also was heard In the corners among the party workers, who flocked to state headquarters to join the gloomy crowd that received state elec-
tion returns there.

ADOPTS OUU/l BOARD BABY. “Patience Worth” Directed SearchJ
Say# St. Louis Woman.
ST. LOUIS, November 8.—Wish to adopt a baby? Get out your little oulja board i
and let it find one for you.
Mrs. John H. Curran, of 5711 Cates ave- ! nue, tried it and it worked finely. She ! now has a wee oulja girl whom she days she will christen Patience Worth, for the mystical or mythical “spirit woman" with whom she says she has been communicating at oulja board se-
ances for more than a year.
The Currans had been having sessions I with Patience Worth three times a week, I this being their method of preparing a j
story intended for publication. According to their account, loirs and airy Patience
story recently to say that she wished to adopt a baby, and instructed the Currans to search for one. She described her own appearance, when In the flesh, and specified that the baby must look |
like her.
After the Currans had looked at many j babies offered for adoption, Patience Worth, according to their account, di- i rected them to a home where the advent
of a baby was expected.
The prospective moiher, they said, bore : a striking resemblance to Patience Worth,
as she had described herself.
The Currans say the birth of the baby ; was announced to them a few weeks by Patience Worth, at one of their ouija j
board sessions.
In due time the baby was legally adopt- ' ed by the Currans and has been at their j
home several days.
The mother of the baby is the wife of j a mill worker who was killed in an acci- j dent. She was being cared for by a charitable acquaintance when the Cur- (
rans first met her.
The baby has red hair and brown eyes, i These features were included in the de- i scription and specifications given by Pa- i tience Worth through the ouija board,
the Currans say.

gp
Father John’s Medicine is a physician's prescription. Prescribed for the late Rev. Father John O’Brien, of Lowell, Mass., by an eminent specialist in 1855. Father John recommended this prescription to his parishioners and friends and in this way it became known as Father John’s Medicine. This story is true and we guarantee to give $25,000.00 to any charitable institution, if shown otherwise. Father John’s Medicine is recommended for colds and throat troubles, and to make strength. Does not contain alcohol drugs.—Advertisement.
[By the Rev. J. L,. San4Ia*o-C*torer*l Eighteen years of remarkable progress on the Island of Porto Rico has done much to awaken business, but has not simplified an awful social and economic problem. A glimpse of Porto Rtoo reveals the benefits of American influence In the rapid development of that country. Before the Spanish-American war little was known of the island. Unhealthy conditions prevailed and every year was marked with fearful epidemics. Widespread illiteracy held 85 per cent, of the people in a pitiful state of helplessness and poverty. At the time of the American occupation, a terrible hurricane swept over the land, destroyed property and lives, and left famine and suffering The first task of the United States govThe ] ernment was relief work nobly Carrico ^n
„ e a i by the American soldiers. Immediately, merry picnic in comparison by what five • m tne face of many difficulties, sanitary hobo prisoners of the Burlington county work was begun, an excellent system of Jail got in theirs. They were shaved. ■ fuse public schools was established and bathed and hair-trimmed and put to work 1 splendid roads were started to every
tewn on the island. Now there is not i municipality without a good school building, and the island can even boast of a first-class university. More than 1,000 miles of modern macadamized roads for automobiles make the country especially interesting, and what was a desert n ihe southern part has been transformed into a garden through the United
States irrigation service.
The grant to the island of free trade
cation of the system of forcing such prisoners to earn their keep. Others are to be put to work on the roads later, but all will be obliged to^tajee the bath and the
shave every day.
The men are allowed 50 cents a day for their work and the cost of maintaining thef county prison is expected to be re-
duced to a minimum.

with the United States opened new doors of opportunity. Hitherto unknown possibilities of business are being realized. In 1915 tho export trade amounted to $83,241,203, 88 per cent, of which was carried on with the United States. This present year has been a remarkable one for the sugar cane planter since the price of sugar has doubled. Still there is room for further expansion in this industry. The absence of sugar refineries is peculiar, and he who sets up the first on the island Is going to revolutionize that business and make a lot of money out of it, besides doing much to solve a serious economical problem. The Porto Rican tobacco, one of the island's great resources, is at last finding worthy recognition among Americans. The fruit growing industry is an exclusively American undertaking, and has been rapidly expanding since the discovery that Porto Rican fruits, oranges, pineapples and grapefruits are as good and even can compete with the Florida or California products. It costs less to ship from Porto Rico to New York than from either Florida or California. Porto Rican coffee ranks among the best of the world Hitherto its market has been Europe, but Is practically closed now on account of war troubles. The day is coming when the American people will appreciate its value and demand a coffee grown in American soil. Poverty Cries for Justice. In the midst of so much prosperity an alarming poverty exists that utters an imperative cry for social Justice. The condition of the Porto Rican bread winner, barefooted, poorly clothed, half fed, weak and sick wijth uncinariasis, whether in town fir in the country, is many times worse than that of the mountain whites of the United States. In former days, each owned his little patch of land and, in his simple way, made possible a living. But since the American stepped into the agricultural enterprises of the island the average native ignorantly disposed of his land at $3 or $4 an acre and, in turn, is a day laborer on the large American plantations or in the sugar fields, working from ten to twelve hours with a meager and irregular wage of 50 or 60 cents a day. The fact that the price of foodstuff has almost doubled on account of the European war makes life almost unbearable. This unlucky class is practically homeless. Families of eight or ten sleep and eat in most primitive shacks of two rooms, which are made of the bark and leaves of the royal palm tree, or in more improved ones constructed of the Standard Oil cans and boxes, In many of them there is not a dry spot when it lains. It is surprising the amount of work that these natives can accomplish when we* consider that they are living on practically one meal a day and this extremely frugal, of rice and beans or boiled green bananas and salt codfish. For the, rest of the day they keep up their strength with stimulants such as tobacco, coffee or cheap rum. This people has interesting traits for great possibilities. They are intelligent, simple hearted and generous in their poverty. They are apt to be led to higher ideals, although shy because of the iniquitous dealings they have endured. Crops Pledged in Advance. Even the'small number of native in- ( dependent planters that remain are, for the most part, under an awful 1 pressure, j Many have to pledge their little crops 1 each year in advance to the Spanish \ merchants at half value to get their i daily food or borrow money at the outrageous rate of 25 per cent, interest semiannually. They have been the victims of all times. Their present is bad and their future does not look brighter. An ever increasing rate of population is making the problem more startling when we remember that Porto Rico, a very small island, has a population of 1,300,000, and has no manufacturing Industries. The government through agricultural stations ought to meet more directly the needs of this people. Night schools should be established in rural centers to give not only rudimentary instruction to the illiterate adults, but also teach practical hygiene and sanitation and the ways and means of using the natural resources of that fruitful island. * * - ** in Porto Rico must the creation of new with the idea of wages and. st
