We praise her doughnuts and her pies, her biscuit and her cake, but where’s the man that sighs for pants that mother used to make? She used to take a pair of pa’s when they were worn and frayed, and decorate them with a patch of some contrasting shade. And cut them off about the knees and take the waist in, too, and say that they for every day were just the thing for you. And then she sent you off to school and when you didn’t go, she wondered what got into boys that they played truant so. Yes, still we praise her jam, her “jell,” her coffee and her steak, but where’s the man that sighs for pants like mother used to make?—Ex. Joseph C.

Glazebrook of north of town had an exciting experience one day this week that might have resulted much differently had he been a woman. He put on his coat one of the cool mornings, and after he had it in place he felt a creeping sensation across his back and shoulders that scratching did no good. If he scratched in one locality the itching, crawling sensation changed to another. He was getting a little nervous, and determined to take the coat off so as to get nearer the seat of war. He did this and a mouse jumped out of it onto the floor and scurried to a safer retreat, no doubt congratulating itself on its escape from being the cause of a terrible case of hysterics, and its own violent, ignominious death.

JUNEBUG IS A CLIMBER

Man Who Sailed Her Had to Hold Her Down—Sbe Does 725 Yards. Hammondsport. N. Y.. June 26. —The aeroplane Junebug. driven by G. H. Curtiss, made a flight of 725 yards in 41 seconds, maintaining a speed of 36.2 miles an hour for the distance. The machine listed sharply to port shortly after getting in the air, but was righted immediately by means of the tip controls and kept on an even keel until the end of the flight. The surfaces, had been revarnished and made completely air-tight since the last trial. This so increased the efllciency of the apparatus that the motor developed too much power, even with the ipark fully retarded. Curtiss Anally had to move his weight forward to aid the front control and keep the machine from climbing. Nevertheless it reached a maximum height of forty feet. OWing to this difficulty, however, Curtiss decided to discontinue his flight No damage was sustained.

HOW THEY ARE FED

Where Food Supplies Como From For Winona Lake Visitors. A BIG VEGETABLE GARDEN Twenty-Five Acres of Supplies Will Ba Ready for the Hungry—Fruits and Groceries by Trolley Freeh From ths Markets of Chicago. When thousands of people flock to a summer resort, where they swim, fish, tramp in the woods, play golf and indulge in other outdoor life that develops hearty appetites, a task which confronts the management of the resort la how to supply food In sufficient quality and quantity for the hungry stomachs. Such a food problem has been solved at Winona Lake, the summering place for Christian people in northern Indiana, where there are from 5,000 to 15,000 people to be cared for every day, by the management building and operating its own hotels on a large scale, In buying and raising its own food supplies, and demands of the hungry are further met by the Winona authorities making it possible for many individuals to operate boarding houses. By following these methods, the Winona management has made it possible for the summer pleasure-seekers to live at the lake on any scale of luxury desired.

For this season, when many thousand people will be at Winona Lake, the management has a truck garden to draw upon. A twenty-five-acre tract of land is under cultivation, and corn, potatoes, beans, tomatoes, onions, radishes and similar crops are thriving in the soil, only waiting to be gathered to garnish the dining tables of the hungry visitors. These vegetables are gathered fresh from the immense garden every morning and in wagons taken to hotel, boarding-house and cottage kitchens. _ The Winona management harvests its own Ice from its own lake by the thousands of tons every winter, and wagons deliver the supplies over the park. From neighboring farms come the dally supplies of milk, butter and eggs. There Is a large grocery In Winona park, owned by the Winona Assembly. Its stock of staples, canned goods and fruits comes largely from Chicago, traveling some of the way over Winona’s own trolley lines. The groceries are purchased in the wholesale districts of Chicago, loaded on a freight boat and shipped across Lake Michigan to Benton Harbor. There the cargo Is loaded In a freight trolley car and sent south through South Bend and Warsaw to Winona Lake, and is unloaded a short distance from the Winona grocery. A shipment started from Chicago about sundown makes the trip across the lake and over the trolley lines to Winona Lake by sunrise next morning. This places at the disposal of the visitors to Winona Lake the supplies of the Chicago markets, one of the best and largest in the United States. The operations of the Winona, The Inn and Kosciusko Lodge, three of the larger hotels at Winona Lake, have been reorganized by the Assembly management for this season, the purpose being to give visitors good living at moderate rates. The Winona Hotel will be on the European plan, under new management. Its facilities and service will, as in other years, be on the same high order which has long made it a leading hotel in northern Indiana. Mrs. Adams, of Indianapolis, formerly of The Inn, will manage the Winona Hotel.

The Inn is to be occupied by the students of the Winona Normal School, where rooms and board will be provided them at a remarkably low price, while its 250 rooms can accommodate a large number and give them all the facilities of a well-ordered hostelry. There will be some rooms available to visitors in The Inn on the European plan. Kosciusko Lodge, on the water front at the lower end of the lake, with a beautiful outlook on the waters and to the Winona woods, will have its dining room open this season. The Lodge is an ideal retreat for those who desire genuine rest and quiet Its rooms are comfortable, its porches broad and cool, a good bathing beach is at hand. The Westminster, the new 390,000 hotel, under the management of a Presbyterian company, is one of the largest and most complete of the group of hotels at Winona Lake. It Is well located near the center of the park. The Westminster will continue under the management of Mrs. Anna J. Atkinson, of Indianapolis. TheYe are rooming and boarding houses by the score In Winona Park, all of them catering to the comforts of pleasure seekers, students and others who come to Winona Lake, and this year It is the intention to make the prices more reasonable than ever —although moderate price is a governing rule throughout Winona Park. In fact, visitors can vpend a delightful summer at Winona Lake at about ths same expense as they have at boms A large restaurant is prepared to tabs cars of excursionists and ether day ,-a-sa - ▼UtttOFB. ? ’
