B. E .BOONE. With, the passing of Dave Poone as he was more popularly known from life's troubled path, Hammond loses a gqpd American and a regular fellow Dave had no use for hyphenates of any kind in this country and for pure unalloyed Americanism there never was his peer, yet among the foreign born element, there Is no Hammond man who had more friends for h was always doing something to help them and they idolized Boone. He would listen to their sffories and sympathize with them and if he could not help them In action, his words were comforting to them anwyay. Dive Boone was a grand fighter. He loved to array himself In battle for whAt was right and yet while he was prosecuting attorney he never persecuted fcr he carried a big heart in his big body. Hammond will mourn this ve'ran of many a physical and mental campaign. Republican politics will miss him for he was a characteristic speaker In every campaign In the last two decades and he loved politics because It meant good citizenship to him. He showed that In the memorable Smalley campaign when he left his party to exercise his independence. ' The anecdotes and stories tcId of Mr. Boone, would fill & book and they are as refreshing as his personality. He was always ready to lead a helping hand io some-J

have gone to the colony to make examinations that will reveal whether his claim of having cursd two young men after three years' treatment are based on accomplishment. v ChemulgaolI, Imported frcm India, has mads the dream of the medical profession come true, declares Dr. Parker. The oil comes from the Indiana plum tree. After the three patients took the Indian oil for two years, during which time they were given the same treatment of fresh air. food, etc., as tuberculosis patients, tests showed negative results, that is. there was no trace of the disease. If the tests to be made by the specialists bear out the belief of the state authoriles two men who were practically sentenced to con-, nne-ment for life will be released. It will be a great day for medical science when It can announce to the world that it. has conquered the fuot dreaded and abhorred of all diseases.

QUIET KIEL AWAITS RETURN OF WORLD'S SHIPPING

INDUSTRY IS A HABIT. This editorial has nothing to do with the trouhlfs of capital and labor. So read on. I'p in a little village in New York is an old man. claiming 83 years of life. Now, when most men get to he S3 they like to sit on the veranda and smoke or dream of the past. But not so with this one. Gardening is his hebby. For the last several years h has had good-sized gardens. Every year he increases it in size. "I tell my daughter," says he, "that I'll have a farm by the time I'm 100." And probably he will. For this man has the habit of industry. His garden has grown to be more than an acre, which is net much unless you have to hoe every bit of it then

it takes on astonishing proportions. Early In life this man acquired the habit of industry. At few times has he worked terrifically hard as some know it these days. At no time has he loafed. He has kept t it. The result is that his body Is good for many years yet. The habit of industry has kept him phy

sically and mentally in tune. His life is happy be

cause ne enjoys every minute cf it. He knows -more

about weeds and bugs and soils in a practical way

than the average agricultural college graduate.

In short, his habit of Industry has made his

life successful from any angle you care to look at. it

. T " HEAD BIBLE 23 TIMES. " An aged Pennsylvania woman died the other day after having finished reading the Bibla through for the twenty-third time. Her assiduity Tva3 probably a recoil, but It is not so remarkable that-a persou should read a book 23 times, as thata. Look should be worth reading that often. The Bible Is still the world's "besT tclTer" and Is In no danger of being displaced. And -when we consider the wealth of inspiration, Information and beauty that the good book holds for us, -we fail to wondr that fcr some of our greatest men It has been a daily lifelong companion, nor that folks everywhere of all ranks and conditions, turn to it with, never ceasing delight. More than a source of moral and upirltuaT guidance, the Bible Is a great history. If you don't believe it contains soma of the most beautiful poetry ever written In any tongue, re-read tha Psalms. Some of tha -world's greatest short stories ere told in 113

pages, outstanding among vhich are thevivid narratives of Ruth and of the Prodigal Son. It contains some of the greatest crajions in literature; Paul's Bpeech. before Agrlppa has never been excelled. It is not strange that the Pennsylvania -woman should have read the book 23 times. The knowledge and breadth cf view attained through a study of the book of boks surely must have made life happier nd more worth while.

A CURE FOR LEPROSY? ,l-r' ' Has medical silence, after centuries cf failure. finally conquered leprosy, most dreaded &l diseases with, which humans are afflicted?

HOW STRIKES HELP.

There is no doubting that the numerous strikes

over the country are of value in that they are teaching the average citizen to be self reliant and in a sense ne forcing the return of the pioneer conditions

when men and women did everything for themselves. We hrd became possibly a trifle too thoroughly specialized and dependent upon others for everything except our own specialty. Did a kitchen faucet drip, we called in the plumber. Did the front steps need a slight repair, the carpenter was requisitioned. Did anything go wrong with the electric lights, the electrician was summoned, and so on down the line. But the strikes have had the effect, of changing all .this and people have learned that they themselves, when the necessity requires, can do simple plumbing just as well as the plumber; that there is no art or mystery about painting the front porch; that it is cheaper and easier to repair the front etes one's self than to call

m the carpenter; that it is not impossible to do a bit of plastering or papering; and that practically no trade holds the exclusive ability or power to exercise, the functions of its craft. The consequences of all this is going jto be that hereafter thousands of the -trifling jobs which householders previously called in skilled workers to perform will be performed by themselves. We doubt not that these skilled workmen in years past, called to put on a washer, nail on a board, or make some simple adjustment in something or other that any fifteen-year-old boy should be able,

to do, have experienced a profound contempt for the helplessness and ignorance of those they were summoned to succor and it is hardly surprising that their bosses have sapiently concluded that folks so helplessly dependent were made to be mulcted. No doubt this explains such bills as 6.90 for attending to a dripping faucet or fll.40 for putting a new board on the front steps. The people have merited such impositions by reason of calling for help in cases where no help should be required, and if by reaso of strikes, they are finally forced to be their own handy men, the strikes will not have been in vain.
