The First Page Section Contains one of the best and most up-to-date maps of Indiana it is possible for us to obtain. In striking colors it shows plainly— The counties, county seats, and all the towns in the state. The congressional districts, plainly outlined and numbered. The railroads, interurbans, rivets and canals. The distances between all railroad stations. Around the margin of this map are good photographs of all the governors of Indiana, from Governor Arthur St. Clair of the North- . west Territory down to and including Gov. J. Frank Hanly On the reverse side of the map is a complete fist uFall towns and postoffices in the state, arranged in alphabetical order, with the population of each. The map is indexed with marginal figures and letters, so that a town, however large or small, may be instantly pointed out. With the establishment of rural routes the postoffices of many small towns have been closed and the people are served by rural route out of a neighboring town. This map shows how to address mail for such places.

The Home Library Wall Chart would easily sell for $2.00 at any book store or map supply house. It will prove a valuable feature in any home or office or school.

CURED.

“Dear me, wife, not done yet? Why, here it is supper time, and you are still in your nr'ruing wrapper,” said Mr. Williams as he came home from his work and found his wife still en deshabille. “Yes, but do you not know that ‘woman’s work is never done?’ There is the baby, too” "Yes, Ella, bat do you not know that all women have so much *to do? If you would only hurry the least little bit, you would accomplish all the work in a much shorter time. I could do It all in one-half the time.” “Oh, John!” “Well, you just go off somewhere and see if you don’t find things in ‘apple pie order* when you come back.” Thus ended the evening chat. The Tuesday following she received a note saying: Dear Ella—Come immediately. I am very-ill. Your mother, E. F. P. When John returned from his work and had read the note he said: “Go, by all means. I will attend to the housekeeping,” added he, with a confident air. “John, I shall be obliged to leave the baby at home. In case I should not be at home again tomorrow will you see that he is fed?” “Of course. Do you think 1 would starve him?” “The next morning while Mrs. W. was on her way to her mother’s house John was at home, introduced into the mysteries of the kitchen. v About dinner time he went , down into the cellar arid soon returned with a large bowl of sweet cream. After placing this on the table be put on his hat and coat and sauntered down to the butcher's after a steak for dinner. In going out he forgot to shut the door after him, and on bls return home he found five cats lapping the cream he had left on the table. “Well,” he said, “I shall say nothing of this to Ella, but I*ll broil the steak, and that will quite make up for the loss of the cream.” He then tied one of Ella's aprons around him, as he bad seen Ella do when she was about to engage in some such kind of work, put the steak into a frying pan and covered it over with a pot lid, fully expecting to find the steak nicely done when he should again raise the Ud. Alas, however, the steak was burned to a cinder! "That is strange,” said John. "Ella’s broiled steak never resembled this certainly.” ■ By this time he was quite hungry. He was not quite so boastful as he had been that morning. "There is, at least, one thing I’ll have for dinner. I’ll warm up the potatoes that are left over from yesterday’s dinner.” So John put a large lump of lard in thefryjpg paa_and joon-aftet the_ppth-

The Second Section Contains a handsomely engraved map of the United States, and four smaller maps, in colors, .showing Alaska and our Island Possessions. Also a map of the United States showing dates of accessions of territory from 1776 to the present day. This is an exceptionally fine map, is up to date in all details, shows all the state capitols and all the principal cities, railroads, etc. Around the margin of this section are good portraits of all the presidents, from George Washington down to Theodore Roosevelt. .On the reverse sideof this section is shown the population of all the principal cities of the United States arranged in alphabetical order by states, and growth is indicated by the census figures in paralel columns for the years 1880, 1890 and 19x1. There is also much valuable data and interesting information about the possessions of lhe United States, and the Panama Canal Zone.

toes. The’ potatoes were soon warm, but as he sat down to eat them he was surprised at their greasy appearance as well as at the amount of lard left In the pan. How many times be had wished Ella back again that day! In thinking of his many disappointments, together with the fact that he had not yet had his dinner, poor John knew not what to do with himself. The ringing of the doorbell aroused him, and he, forgetting bls ridiculous appearance, rushed to the door. “I have come to call on Mrs. Williams,” said the lady who rang the bell. "Mrs. Williams is not In at present.” “Then I should like to see Mr. Williams If be Is In.” “I am he, madam.” “You?” said the lady, trying In vain to keep from laughing. Then poor John, suddenly recollecting his ridiculous appearance, felt ready to die of shame. There was no help for It, however. He Invited the lady Into the close front parlor, in which the fumes of the burned steak and hot fat were still distinct. Scarce knowing what he was doing, he led her to the sofa, and she sat down, not upon It, but Into the-pan containing the lard. John started back, not knowing what to do or say. In the midst of these troubles the baby began to cry, and John, now terrified beyond everything, rushed into the other room, mentally resolving that if Ella did not come soon he would put an end to these trials. The lady tn the front room kept very quiet She thought she beard some one crying. She listened. It was John. He was talking to himself. He said, “Oh, dear Ella, come back to me again and forgive me, and you shall never hear me boast again!” Then the old lady In the front room slipped off her wig, her old black veil and her dress, and In a very few moments his Ella, for It was she. stood before him. "Oh, Ella, forgive me!” were his first words on recovering from bls surprise. ' She forgave him, then told him how she had planned all to cure him of housekeeping. "You have done so, darling,” said he.

Bored Concert Goers.

The music lover—meaning, of course, the layman—is so curiously constituted that he wants not only to enjoy music himself, but he wants others to enjoy It He wants to force them to enjoy it, and to that end be will pay money out of his own pocket Such elements as the spirit of speculation and local or civic pride may enter into the process of making up this huge annual deficit, but ultimately the subsidies which, direct and indirect make possible a musical life In America will be traced ts this curious characteristic. And thia incidentally accounts for the many bored faces one sees wherever music to the entertainment—William E. Walter in Atlantic.

PEOPLE OF THE DAY

A Power In Finance. / With the partial retirement of Thomas Fortune Ryan from activity in Wall street a new financial figure arises In the person of his son, Allan A. Ryan. Three years ago the elder Ryan began to divest himself of active direction of the many big corporations In which he was the originator and mainstay, and now he is free to devote himself to other pursuits than the accumulation of wealth. Of Mr. Ryan’s five sons only Allan A. and John J. are said to Inherit their father’s business acumen. At any rate they are the ones chosen to manage the vast fortune be has accumulated.

"The same old song you preached so often when I was a boy—*Do right and fear nothing.”’ "No, no! Not at all, Thomas. I know more of the world than I did in those days. What I Intended to say was, ‘Don’t write and fear settling.* ” Ryan never forgot that injunction..

FOUND TRUE REMEDY

B. F. Fendig’s Sure Ml-o-na Will Cure Indigestion. Iu no other way can you so quickly, so readily and so positively stimulate the stomach to good health as by using Mi-o-na. B. F. Fendig feels so"sure that this remedy will restore to health every person suffering with stomach troubles that he sells it under a guarantee to refund the money unless it cures. This shows conclusively its superiority over the ordinary old-fashioned digestives. The underlying cause of most nervous debility, headaches, sleeplessness and melancholy is faulty nutrition, the result of a weakened stomach and inactive bowels. Mi-o-na strengthens the stomach muscles, regulates the bowels and thus makes digestion easy and natural. A 50-cent box of Mi-o-na lasts a couple of weeks, and will ward off a dozen attacks of indigestion and bring good health to the weakest stomach.
