The iocal ambulances are a familiar sight on the streets of Hammond and un douttedly as they pass by the specu :.tor always imagines that some dead or dying form lies within. Such, how ever, is not always the case, as a few people had an opporunlty to witness vesterdav afternoon. The ambulance backed up to the morgue In the usua manner and immediately spectators gathered at the windows near the es tablishment'to see what the case might be. The doors were opened cautiously and the undertaker peered into the opening. His hand was slowly raised and with that the faces at the window took on the look of horror and expectancy. No form was, however, forthcoming. The undertaker dropped his hand and studied the inside of his wagon for a time. Suddenly his hand went up like a Rash and from within Ms ambulance he drew a fat spring rooster. The cutralns at the window went back to their folds and the day's paper told of no hurryup call. F.

In largest, boldest print. My historic soul, love, With genius then doth -lint. And when I sing my song, love. It sounds so good to me'. (No matter if I Hat, love, I reek with harmony.) These other mutts I scorn, love, Who think that they can act; I tolerate them all. love. But they are surely cracked. I wonder what they'd say, love, In Delphi, Uwn below. If they could o.i'y know, love. That I was all the show? For I was once the light, love (In hard-me-uowns so neat) Of Delphi's F. F. V., love Unshorn, but yet elite. I am the social splash, love I want the limelight's spot But Hammond's hoi polloi, love, Appreciate me not. The decision of the Rock River con ference to the effect that the old-fashioned Sunday schools are too slow to suit the ripping pace of the modern. up-to-date scholar, is prolific of suggestions. There is no doubt that the Sunday school needs rejuvenating, and with this end in view an experiment might be made along the following lines: In the first place what is the matter with adopting the visualization system hich has been so successful In inculcatinc in the minds of the pupils off he public schools, how to spell wrong. It would appear that this miaht be adopted in the Sunday schools with plendid results in tne way or. inaucing . large attendance. Our suggestion would provide for the erection of a hippodrome ring in the center of the apartment devoted to the Sunday school, on which Daniel in the lion's den might be realistically por trayed and the Inmates of Noah's ark exhibited in a limited sort of way. Other Bible stories might be similarly illustrated. In one corner of the room there might be a shoot the chutes where business might be combined with pleasure especially if the Sunday school hap pened to be one where immersion is a part of the baptismal ceremony. 1 he usual platform wherefrom the Sunday school superintendent ,is wont to ex hort the boys and girls to live noble lives and love one another, should be given over to a black face minstrel troupe and the morals pointed out by way of time-honorea ana otner joKes. Instead of the staid old gospel hymns, why not substitute rag-time? The song about isot i-secause xour tiair is Curly" etc., might be adapted to righteous ends by a few slight changes as follows: Not because your hair is curly. Not because your eyes are blue; want you to know my dearie, You're the best Sunday school scholar I e'er knew. I There's something in your style and manner That seems to tell me, tell me true, It's because you learn each Sabbath lesson And that is why I love just you. It seems to be a question of attend ance that is worrying tne members oi the conference and there Is no doubt that this method would have a tendency to greatly increase the membership In a Sunday school where it might be adopted. A MISSOIIU FOl'R-STORY FARM, From Howard county comes the tale of a four-story farm. Charles Ridgeway is its owner and the farm is lo cated near Fayette. Mr. Ridgeway has a fine clover field. Beneath the clover Is one of the richest beds of coal and underneath the coalis a fine bed of shale from which excellent buiidrng brick are made. And in and above the clover is an apple orchard on which there is an abundant crop of apples. This makes a four-story faFm shale, coal, clover, apples and shows how the wealth is piled up in Missouri. The farmer who innocently told the following story to one of his guests from the city did not help to reduce the pure food agitation: "It's work and work in the dirt." said the farmer, "from long before sumrise until sunset or later, and it lasts (the year round. Why, there's only jone time a year that my hands are smooth and clean and soft." "Dear me," said the sympathetic listener. "When is that?" "Why, it's just after I've finished making sausage " was the answer. John Doyle's Generosltv The late William Plumrner, of Newburyport, who was a contractor and mason, had in his employ as a tender an Irishman named John Doyle. One day John went to Mr. Plumrner and said he was In trouble, as he had lost his account book. "Why," said Mr. Plumrner, "you cannot read or write, and how could you keep an account book?" "Well." said John. "I had a nail keg In the cellar, and when I worked a whole day I put a potato In the keg, and half a potato for a half-day. My pig got Into the cellar and ate the potatoes." "Very well," said Mr. Plumrner, "I hare your account, and will look It over." On doing so, he found that John had OTerdrawn 50 cents. He told John that he had drawn 50 cents more than was due him, when John said: "Well. Mr. Plumrner. itV a small amount, and you are welcome to It" Always Cne End. It's easy to name the winner of an argument in which a man's words are - ?ltted against a woman s tears. 1

John D. Rockefeller is credited with complaining that lie is not nearly so rich as he is accused of being, having only a paltry $Cx000.t K) or so. Lately a railroad multimillionaire also complained that his annual income was jrretttly overrated in the popular Ivlief. II? hag really a snuili income, after r.U, cn!y SlO.ti) a ye-.r, h"1 ?sy At ihU moment there is on ny d-.-l; an nbstreet of the report of average w.ie i paid to schoolmistresses in Maine. It -huppens to "be Maine In this ease, br.t the story will fit almost any other state la the Union. In Maine the woman teacher, on whom depend largely the morality and intelligence of the voters of the state, receive; $G.!0 a week for her labors. She has spent .years of time and hundreds of dollars litticg herself for her profession. Ti;e Maine factory girl ?ets an average of ?olK a week, even though she may not know how to road and write. Her work, however, lats all the year, -while that of the woman teacher stops during two or three months, so that the factory girl, miserable :'s her pay is, is really better off than the tencher. Now, do you flatter yourself you are civilized, you women who say our fex does not need the right of suffrage? If state legislators and congressmen were hon est and could not be bribed the amassing of billion dollar fortunes In this country would be Impossible. It is only by the bribing of lawmakers that these Iniquitous fortunes can be piled up. Men have had government all their own way since the world began, and here is the result. Legislative knaves and scoundrels have allowed greedy, conscienceless knaves and scoundrels to own the earth and women teachers get $0.90 a week. Working women, does politics concern your Interests in any way? Vt ? What a bore is that rattle brained woman who can never tell a story straight! She undertakes to tell you of something she has 6een or heard The result is simply a confused jumble of what's his rTame and thingumbobs and so and so's and something or others and all that sort of thing acd over there somewhere. This woman's brains are not compact. They practically rattle around iu her skull. She Is never accurate either in her thought habit or In her work. Don't let the rattle brain habit take hold on you. WThen you pretend to listen to anything, listen carefully, concentrating your mind on the story. Note in your memory the main points. Get the mental habit of exactness and accuracy. The number of insane persons has doubled in the civilized world in the past ten years. The rate of Increase Is higher among men than among women. And still old fogies talk about "woman's emotional, excitable nature" and appear to believe themselves. If you wish to be popular, keep your griefs to yourself and your ailments from everybody but your doctor. People's own souls are all so full of heartache and disappointment that they ought not to have those of their acquaintances unloaded upon them. tZ . The season's record for a woman swimmer is that of Mrs. Charles L. Brown of Chicago. In company with several men Mrs. Brown swam out into cold Lake Michigan five mile3 to the Ilyde Park crib, which furnishes the city water. The time she occupied was two hours and forty minutes. Mrs. Brown arrived first at the crib. v. t? The next, and the thirty-nlntb; annual convention of the National American Woman Suffrage association will be held in Music hall, Fine Arts building, Chicago, Feb. 14 to 19, 1907. And It will be the first one In all the thirty-nine years at which the noble, powerful presence of Susan B. Anthony is lack ing. , Women's clubs are In the main achieving really useful and public spirited objects, yet sometimes they still do amazingly fool things. In a leading feminine club in one of our largest cities a lady was recently proposed for membership. She was a professional woman of unexceptionable standing socially and morally and intellectually even brilliant. She was proposed for membership and vouched for by ome of the club's most respected members, yet the fool women of the governing board rejected-her. This was the reason: An outsider, who had nothing at all to do with the government of tha club, told some of the ezecutive committee she had heard the candidate had done things frowned on by tabbiesnothing wrong, perhaps, but just frowned on by old tabbies. Without Jhe least investigation, against the protests of the candidate's vouchers, the cats on that board turned her down. Afterward it was found out that it was not the candidate at all who was said to have acted unconventionally, but another woman who happened to bear a similar name. Was or was not that "Just like a woman?" Enid Shaw, daughter of Secretary Shaw of the president's cabinet, la studying at the Sorbonne in Paris.
