Some people aro wondering why there is such a utrong sentiment to put Woodrow Wilson, governor of New Jersey, in the presidential chair.

We have always concurred In the movement to get more returns from our school buildings. Nowadays up-to-date communities realize that to close up a school building at 4 o'clock in the atternoon is not giving the people full value for their money.

It is to be regretted that the real truth cannot be told about those alleged Gary bribery cases.

Here are tL,e " hUhgrams ' from the Chicago Health Bullteiu that are worth memorizing: Dirty air is death. Good air means good work. Too much fresh air is just enough. Fresh air i the best life assurance agency. To prevent a cold, liberate the foul air in your room. Taking in fresh air is better than putting on fresh airs. Good ventilation is the first essential to the purity of the home. Pure air makes pure blood, and pure blood makes you diseases resist ing. ( There are thousands of cases of air ' starvation to every case of food stari vation. Bad air and a high temperature in ! the school room are certain to proj , , . , . . , ,duee a low grade of scholarship in the ' pupils. Plenty of good fresh air will make th firos r,f lif and health hnrn V.W, ly; therefore, don't hibernate; ventilate! Smallpox is a disgrace. Save your reputation and your face by vaccinatlon - Quarantine may temporarily nostipone smallpox; vaccination positively urevents it. Which will von have . " . ready absolutely protected by vaccination, t Vaccination is n duty we owe ourselves, our children, and our neighbors. Smallpox Is the punishment threatening those who neglect this duty. The ventilation problem is more of a problem just at this season that at Conditions that cause, or at least encourage colds result from the efforts to combat mankind's re turn, after a fumruer free from thought of it. At night one covers up comfortably, and throws the windows open as usual. But against the morning's cold we close windows and doors, start the fires, and absorbed In work, forget all about ventilation WHY IS IT? Why is it that at some of these club - women's meeting some fair ladv tificallv? THE TAINTED DOLLARS. lu making public the names of Hammond people who own buildings in West Hammond lhat are being used for immoral purposes, Miss Virginia Brooks has raised a delicate question. It is plain that if there are people in Hammond who are not ashamed to profit indirectly from vice that these 'same people ought not be ashamed to have the fact mads public. They must have known that sooner or later they would be compelled to shoulder the full responsibility for their acts. One reason why vice is n . , . ..... auie io nounsn is mar. it receives a degree of toleration from so-called re spectable people. question. The families of men wh choose to make tainted investment should hardly be made to suffer fo s for their acts. It is altogether probable that the wives of every one of those whom Miss Brooks mentions are as .deeply chagrined over the disgrace that hat come from the exposure as the most puritanical iwrson in the community. It is obvious then that a man who chooses to permit his property to be used for such purposes involves in possible disgrace, not only himself but also many others who are only responsible unless they fail to take steps to influence husband or father against such an investment. The profits from vice may seem alluring, but in the last analysis they

are secured at a great price when characters and reputations are ruined by the tainted dollars.

THE lady in the ad who goes around kicking up her heels in neglige because she has found relief from her corn,' had better dike herself out in warmer togs or the first thing she knows she'll have to be taking patent medicine for penumonia. A FT EH a woman has been married a couple of limes she begins to prefer advertisements to poetry. Dallas News. Sure, and yet how hard it is to convince some of (he merchants around here of that fact. MEREDITH Nicholson of the capital, says that woman's suffragette is not for the woman who lives in a flat, talks to her canary and caresses her poodle dog. Looks as if Meredith had been talking pretty seriously to h'13 wife lately. IF you have two bits that are not working, you can bet them that no matter how the Valnaraisn rasca turn out, there will be a big bunch who will tell you, ".I told you so," next Friday or Saturday. FRENCH fashion expert says that five years from men will have to wear tight-fitting breeches, shirts with lace ruffles and wigs. Cinch about the wig ,but we have our doubts about the other. INDIANA is one of the greatest anple states in the country, yet Indiana like other states, has the same reputation for putting the good apples at the top of the barrel. AN Arizona druggist believes in ad vertising in a novel way when he says: "Say, friend, send vou drusr order to Bresley's. No one ever lived to regret it." HAVING let another $23,000,000 go for charitable purposes, the canny Andrew Carnegie is perhaps finding how really easy it is, when you have a lot left. IN a local divorce court a woman testified the other day that she lost her husband's love within six months after she married him. Wonder rf she ever tried to keep it, or find it again? WOMEN of 28 married a man of 82, palsied and bedridden, the other day in Atlanta, Ga. Probably found out that he had $500 in the savings bank. PARENTS who are expecting the stork should remember that a Chicago girl has just been given $20,000 in a will because her name was Jane. MINISTER says that kite flying would cure the headache. This is strange. We thought kite flying gave a good many men the headache. WOMEN said to be better aviators because their bones are lighter. Ever notice how light a woman's bones are when she hands you one? AFTER reading an account of the Harvard-Carlisle football game it might be well to hunt up about eleven white men's hopes. WE thought girls had been kissed nearly everywhere, but here's a New York girl who was kissed the other day on the Battery. IT must have been a melancholy crowd that hung around and criticized Noah bossing the job of loading the ark. TEE, HEE! Two Georgia couples were so bashful that they got married in the dark. Fix it up to suit your self. DES Moines paper says that all Lafollette wants Is revenge. He isn't getting much of it in old Indiana. WE told you to take a little time to go down into the basement and see how the coal-bin was prospering. SOME Chicago wives don't seem to have munch else to do except to kill husbands and things. ST. Louis parson says that hades is a state. Yes, it is with some people, a state of obsession. WE don't think anyone can really truthfully accuse Mr. Taft of having cold feet.

The machine rose twenty feet, and the rone attached to the motorcycle was cut loose.

HAS FLEMING URGED O'BRIEH TO RUM

TIMES BIREAl, AT STATE CAPITAL. Indianapolis, Ind., 13. There is a report abroad here that Senator Stephen B. Fleming, of Fort Wayne, who has been an uncertain quantity in regard to which candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor shall receive his support has urged Thomas Taggart to bring out W. H. O'Brien, auditor of state, as a candidate for the nomination. Just where the information came known, but the report is out, and it sems tt be based on af air foundation of truth. What Taggart has told him in regard to the matter ; not known, either, but up to this time O'Brien has not announced himself as a candidate, and there is good reason to believe that he will not so announce himself. He says he Is a candidate for renomination for auditor of state and for nothing else. If the report regarding Fleming is true it is taken as an indication that he is in sore straits for a candidate for governor ItTras been generally understood that h would not support Samuel M. Ralston of Lebanon, who Is recognized as the Taggart candidate. This precludes him from getting Fleming's for the purpose of determining the force of gravity in that locality. Through this means the government hopes to determine the exact size and shape of the earth. These investigations are merely one phase of the research being made to find out the truth concerning the character of the earth's surface. TIRTLES DELAY WITCH WORK. Turtles of large size and numerous, are interfering with the deepening of a ditch near Chalmers, which is known as the Carr ditch. M. J. Hanawait is operating a centrifugal pump with a six inch miction pipe. It cleans the loose earth and sediment from the ditch and deposits it several yards away. When small turtles are drawn into the suction pipe they are thrown out without difficulty by the pump, but frequently a larger turtle gets crosswise in the pipe and the earth and grass accumulate about its body, stopping the pipe and causing the men a great deal of trouble in removing it. CHEAP VI . ACTION EER IN G. The first candidate at the lections held last Tuesday, to comply with the law which requires the filing with the clerk of the circuit court a sworn statement of his campaign expenses, was John McKinley, who aspired to become one of the town trustees of alamonla near Portland. He said he did not spend a cent. As the Democratic candidate. McKinley was defeated. Plays and Players Douglas Fairbanks is going into vaudeville.

Bertha. Czube support. Then Fleming Is not a Boehne man. He and Boehne had a row once In a state convention committee, and have never gotten over it. Some time ago th9 report was that Taggart and Lick on the governorship and that they got together on Ralston. Fleming denied this and so did Taggart, but some persons who ought to know say that the report was true. Then a later report was that this arrangement had ben broken up and that Fleming would n. support Ralston. 1 The .atest report, that Fleming has urged Taggart to bring O'Brien Into the race is taken as proof that the agreement on Ralston has been busted. Politicians here agree, that it would i be a strange thing to see Taggart and j Fleming working together : inatlon of O'Brien. It Is for the nompolnted out that th Fleming objection to Ralston j is that Ralston is a Taggart man and that no Taggart man can have the Fleming support. They say that it would be humorous, in th face of this objection for Fleming " to support O'Brien, who is much. more of a Taggart man than Ralston ever was. One of Ralston's suporters says that Ralston has never been much of a Taggart man, and that he never sailed on the Taggart craft until last year, when he Joined in the effort to defeat the governor's plan to have the state convention nominate a candidate for t'nited States senator. It will be remembered that at the state convention Ralston and Senator Shlvely both made speeches in opposition to the proposition. John E. Lamb of Terre Haute was on leader of the faction that was fighting to have the governor's plan adopted. In fact, he was making the fight pracJ ticalty single handed. After Ralston for fiftee.n minutes, notwithstanding the hisses, jeers and insults of the Taggart

listen carefully to everything they heard, and report to her upon her return; for she knew that it was near harvest time, and that their plasant home was in danger from the scythe. When she came back from her journey she found the family in a high state of alarm. They told her that the farmer had co.ue into the field with his two sons, and, noticing the ripeness of th grain, had said to them: "We must cut this grain tomorrow. Go, therefore, and bid our good neighbors to come and help us." The mother lark only laughed anj told her children to have no fears. "But." said she, "note carefully what may b said while I am gon tomorrow." Vpon her return the next day, sh found her family again in a high stat of excitement. "The farmer came again," said they, "and said to his sons: 'See. the grain is still riper and our neighbors did not come. Go, therefore, and invite your relatives to come, each with his scythe, and help us tomorrow. " So the young larks pleaded wit thir mother to? lot t ieni fie for thir lives. But the mother only laughed again, and said: "Do not .be alarmed, but listen once again for what they will say today." That day the farmer cam again anj said to his sops: "I j.erceive ' that that neither our tttoLgliuors nor our relatives can be counted on to help us. Tomorrow, therefore, we will Tiring our Scythes hither and cut tin? grain ourselves." When the mother lark heard this she said: "Then, my dears, we must Indeed be going; for if the farmer and his sons have determined to do the work themselves, it will no doubt be done at once, and our home will be destroyed." Oh, that was good, sound, all-woo!-and-a-yard-wide. common sens, based on a perfect knowledge f human nature. That wise old lark knew, as wil a you know, and I know, that the mart who gets things done is the man who stands ready to do them himself. As wir old Ben Franklin put it: "If thou wouldst have a th.ng done. if pot. send." '

crowd in a dramatic manner. One day after the convention Lamb was telling about the convention, and he said that when he arose to make his speech he had a notion to tell a story that would have fitted the casa of Ralston and Shlvely. "There -ere two brothers in our county, one a farmer a:id the other a preacher," he said. "They went west. Some time later the farmer came back to Indiana. A neighbor met him and said: 'Is your brother Jim ' coming ing back?" 'No,' the farmer said, 'he's not comlsg back.' "'Is he' still in the west 7" " 'Yes. " 'Is he still preaching?' " 'No, he's quit preaching. " 'Why did ha quit?" " 'Well. I advised him to quit preaching. You see, he had no delivery, and besides he hadn't anything to deliver.'" Lamb said the speeches of Ralston and Shlvely reminded him of the man that had no delivery and nothing to deliver Lamb is opposed to Ralston's nomination this time, although he supported him when h ran for governor in 190S. In fact. Lamb was one of Ralston's warmest supporters at that time, and came near having a knock-down and drag-out fight on one occasion in a committee meeting on Ralston's account. Lamb would. like to have Congressman Moss nominated for governor, but Moss is not a candidate. Albert J. Be veridge came home yesterday after a four months stay in Europe, but he had nothing to say in regard to politics. He said that he had not kept in touch with affairs In this country and that he did not know what had happened during his absence. H said he went away to get a good rest and that he wanted to do a lot of work of his own In his own way. He said that during the summer he wrote ten magazine articles, all of which have been published, th last one being in the November issue of World's Work, on the Initiative and referendum in Switzerland. He said he made a study of the Swiss government, and that it is a perfect piece of governmental machinery. Mr. Bvrldg looks well ana says he never felt better in his life.

How to Get Things DoneAs good a fable as old Aesop ever wrote Is the one about the family of larks in a harvest field. Th mother lark, being called away from home on business, left word with her young ones that they should
