I wish 'twere given me to message half so glad As that tin- doctor brings unto fear-distracted fad. 1 wish that simple words of mine could change the skies to blue And lift the can; from troubled hearts, as those he utters do.

HISTORY Is a marvelous Toucher. From her pages speak event!, experlences ami thrilling deeds all products of the human llraln. Von are now pluylng u' part of the future History of the Worhl. Hven the humblest man or woman has his part to play. And the part played must needs be recorded. The work of your days and life whether for good or III, In. Its final summing up !s as sure to mark or influence some phase of the entire History of Histories, as each act you perform today 15 sure to give color and form to the final results of today. Yes -you are now playing a part of the future History of the World. It Is the realization of this truth by men and women thnt Inspires some to become great and notable while others1 remain obscure. For Just as soon as people wake up to the fact that Responsibility presses down upon them, thVy begin to draw upon their Reserve Tower. And It Is Keserve Tower that helps make History fascinating. You are now playing a part of the futtir? History of the World. It Is not necessary, however, nor Is It possible for us all to become notable In History. History Is universal. And so is the Mind that makes up the human Soul. You doing your workin the best way you know how are as great an element in History as Alexander, or Washington, or Cromwell or such as they. Study History. It will arouse you to big deeds. Live i you wouldliko to have History say you lived.

Last Piight's Dreams What They Mean DID YOU DREAM OF HENS? THIS Is not a common dream but It Is a most favorable one, partaking of that generally beneficent character whlcb appertains to nearly all bucolic visions. Dream-hens and dream-chickens are equally of fortunate omen. If the hens are making that peculiar noise called "singing" then Is - the dream more thiui ever propitious, as it foretells thrift, many children and domestic happiness. If you see a brood of ch'ckens Instead of hens it is true that you will probably have many petty cares and worries before you will attain your good fortune, but you will eventually'get ttvre and nil your worrlments turn out to your advantage. Any one about to embark In a business venture attended with some risk should by all means dream of chickens, as It shows that his venture will turn out successful beyond ' his expectations. For n young unmarried woman to dream of an old mother-hen surrounded by her chicks Is a sign that she will be married before the chickens have grown up to henl od, and the chickens of Dreamland mature into hens about as rapidly as other chickens. For any one to see In a dream a hen with a brood of chickens about her denotes that there will soon be a marriage In the family. It is but fair to state that mot authorities made It a prerequisite for success In a business venture after dreaming of chickens that the dreamer should have with him plenty of determination. If your dream-hens ?.ro running about cackling as if they had Just laid one of those clhty-cents-a-dozen eggs we read about It hows that something will occur to mar your happiness probably the price of os will g: up still farther.

Railroad Travel Has Own Peculiarities

DKNVEU. A long list of grievances against the Colorado & Southern Hallway company, the Chicago, ISurlington & Qulncy Hnllroad company, "and the Pullman company. Is recited In a suit for $0,000 damages filed In the District court by II. C. Li rrr Legg declares In his complaint that on May 11 he boarded the train with a ticket to Cowley, Wyo. When he readied Kirby, Wyo., he states, he was told that the Pullman on which he was riding would not be carried further, hut his protests. coupled with tliose of other passengers induced the company to take the Pullman to Graybull, Wyo., where; without his consent, he was transferred to another car, which whs left on the "Bill," the Red Cross SIOUX FALLS, S. D. "Bill" was only an old goose, but the other day, when he was found dead of old age In a pasture on Sander QuestaeVs farm north of Sioux Falls, he was given honorable burial by residents. Bill" gained national fame during the world war as a "Red Cross Goose." The goose was tlrst "bought In" at a country sale by J. E. Shaw, living near Colton. Shaw, to show his patriotism and desire to aid the Red Cross, paid $70 for it and presented It to the Red Cross people of Colton to be again sold. At the next sale It brought $132; From Colton "Bill" was transported to Hartford, where the Red Cross again put it up at auction, the old fowl this time bringing $152. He was then taken to Crooks, where bidders from Kenner got possession of him at a price of $r."0. The Rentier Red Cross held an auction sale and people from Garretson bid him In at $150. The residents of Garretson succeeded In getting together a large assemblage and the bidding was fast and furious. Finally the goose was sold at $1,0(;0. Garretson boasted this amount would stand as a high water mark for "Every Baby Has a NEW YORK. Mrs. Catherine McNulty, who offered her baby, Margaret, for sale, has given her to James F. Sweetman. The mother will have permission to see her child whenever she wishes. Margaret was offered for sale for $250 when the mother found It was impossible for her to earn enough to live on. She hoped the money she asked could be used to help her regain her health. However, she changed her mind and gave the child to Mr. Sweetman. Margaret was in the Sweetman family once before. She came back to her mother when Mrs. Sweetman died. At that time ütrs. McXulty feared that Mr. Sweetman would be

DrrUOIT. In accordance with the custom of Syrians, Sahlt Dugeley. oST Labelle avenue. Highland Park, paid $3,000 to Hassan Hatch stepfather of 1-4-year-old Mary Slamen, and despite her protests took the girl to the Michigan Central station and forced her to accompany him on a train bound for the East, where he plans to be married to her, according to agents of the department of Justice. The stepfather went with the girl nnd Dugeley, because he feared residents of the Syrian colony In Highland Bark would kill hlin. It Is said. Two former soldiers called the attention of the department of Justice to the case. They said they had seen the girl when she was rushed from her home to a waiting automobile, and tlujt she was bleeding from a wound In the forehead. Ofllcers found the Syrian colony In a state of riot. Two persons who had acted as witnesses to the transaction, and whoso names are withheld pending arrest of Dugeley and Hatel, are being held. Following the "sale" the girl, who sah! she hated Dugeley, ran from her home and sought protection at the

A&s siding all night and until noon the next day. The car was then hitched to n train which passed through Cowley, he states, but the train crew refused to stop there, and Instead of putting him off demanded additional fare beyond that point. When he refused to pay this fare, Lcgg asserts, he was "threatened and humiliated," nnd carried to Fromberg, Mont., where the car was left on a siding. At this point, ho" says, he was locked In the Pullman all night, not even being allowed to leave for meals. The next day the car was taken back to Cowley, where It arrived at 3 o'clock In the morning, May 11. The station was a mile and a half from the town. Legs states, and when ho attempted to walk the distance he lost his way and after tramping through swamps and pools of water. readied Cowley at T a. m.. May 15, In a thoroughly exhausted condition." In addition to the hardship and humiliation which he alleges that he suffered In trying to roach his destination, Legg states that he was compelled, through arriving so late to remain In Cowley ten days longer than he had Intended and to lose a valuable contract Goose, Passes Away this wonderful fowl, but Carretson's elation was of short duration. Baltic people got possession of the goose and determined to show the country a sample of real patriotism, announcing that so long as their money lasted no other town In the county would be able to "bid in" the fowl. When the sale was over "Bill" flopped his great wings, held them poised in the air and gave a great scream of apparent delight, and then It was announced by the auctioneer that "Bill" had been sold at the record price of $2,02G. Thus ended the travels of "Bill," for it was decided he had done his full duty in aiding the United States in winning the war, and he was given Into the keeping of Questad. Right to a Mother" so occupied with tlie care of his own motherless child that he could not give Margaret adequate care. It was only after the worry of weeks of desperation that Mrs. Katherlne McNulty finally felt that circumstances had driven her to part with her baU-y girl. A widow of three years, she worked beyond her strength to care for the little daughter and her brother, two years older. A yea,r ago she was stricken with influenza. It was afterward the doctor first mentioned a fighting chance, which would cost money for transportation to the country, milk, eggs and rest. "Every baby has a right to a mother," said Mrs. McNulty. "And if taking money in exchange for my baby Is the only way I can save her mother for her', am I not doing what Is right? "Some day. If I live through the next few months, I may meet her again as my daughter. If the plan works out. Otherwise the doctor says I shall be here only a little while. This way I can find the right ones to take her; the other way sr'ie would be put in an institution." home of a school girl friend. Her stepfather and the man who bought her followed and she was taken from the girl friend's place and back to her own home. 1 Neighbors said that after she was taken Into heT own home loud cries were heard, and men who Investigated found that she was being beaten by her stepfather. When she was carried from her home to the automobile she did not make an outcry and neighbors believe she was unconscious. Evidently the "melting pot" docs not alwQys melt all of Its varied content. Of course It may be said that the element of barter and Fale Is not entirely absent from the conventional American marriage. But at least the bride I given a chance to say "ro."
