No that the law will stand until other regalar meeting of the general assembly is beyond gucstion, and there is no longer an :cuse for delay in calling the special session.

A BIG REUNION - Twenty vears ago when the inausuration of the International Live siock Exposition summoned to Chicago live scock breeders. and feeders from ever the remote recesses of civilization, the leaders of the trade in an international sense, embraced the opportusity to create a new epoch During I";e'interveriing period many af these have passed from this sphere of usefulness, a new generation profiting by their public spiritedness and the seed th2y sowed has borne abundant fruit. ’"he 1919 International affords an opperiunity for a reunion of the survivers and a demonstration of how well they builded at a critical stage of thz industry when public interest was vovived in'opportune manrer. : - , ~ Bvery mar, woman and child enjoying the distinction of atttending .the 1900 International Live Stock Exposition should embrace the opportunity 10 participate in the Twentieth Anni—ersary of that event at Chicago during the firs: week in December.

| Obituary. v ! Mary ( daughter of Caleb .and ilo.liza Eldred was born in Navarra, ;Ohio, Nov. 1) 1851. When. quite small she removed with her parents to Roanoke, Trnd., and from thence with them in 1865 to Ligonier where she has since made her home. . ; After John H. Hoffman returned as a soldier in the war between the States he was married May 1877 to this cdaughter cof the Eldred home. For cver fortv iwo véars they enjoyed cach others rich companionship. The fact that their home was blessed by no children seemed to bind their kearts an: lives so closely to each other, as fu.i one. another they lived. She took u lively interest in all his Lusiness oYairs. as assisting. and counciling where ever his engagerzents might lead him. While postmaster in iais city she ably assisted higl thus gaining wide acquaintanceship. Only »ecenily Mr. Hoffman disrosed of his store that they together might enjoy the fruits of their labors. Great plans had been made for these cays of refirement. :

Long years ago Mary Hoffman made a public cunfession of her faith in Jesus Christ and united with- the Methedist Episcopal-church and down w 0 the day of her death remained a communicon: who took a lively .interested in its affairs. To the day of her death she was a member of the official board and when health permitted had with great devotion given her services to the church. She was a con-siant-reader of the official church paper and other good literature. Pastors who came afid went found her lot only in Sunday services but in the prayver meeting and in no home were they more welcome. Her wide awake mind and her care for her friends alays made her a lively conversattion--Irut. ' .

With no sense of 'the near approach of death she was calling on a neighbor vwinen the messenger of death swept by in his chariot and carried her away from her home here to her loved ones gone beyond. Besides her sorrowing husband t¢he leaves two brothers, Theodore of this city and John of La Forte. Th 3 day of her death was Oct. 28, 1919, A good woman has gone out from us a: d her husband can truly rise up and c: 11 her blessed. Her friends, neigabors and rolatives feel in her goiag il:ay have jost one whose interest in t.2m was ‘indying. The church has iost one whe had labored for its succces and ia whose victories she rejo'ced, W= wait in faith for the t:ne when we will again see our friend a:ld until thut day we say “God be with us yet” and “Thy will be done.” 5 . : A Friend

FOOLISH IDEAS SOME HAVE Old Fellow Righteously Indignant at . Fastidiousness of the Guests ' of His Hotel. Capt. Lindsey Polk, director of a number of hotels, said recently in New York: e : - “European hotels, even the best of them, are inferior to ours. While I was in Paris I saw an advertisement of a fashionable new hotel, and the boast the management made was that it was as good as the best American hotels. 1 was pleased with this tribute.” = : : Captain Polk smiled. ‘ “Well,” he resumed, “‘our ideals are high. No more hotel Keepers like the old fellow who complained about his summer visitors: ‘ “‘You wouldn’'t believe the nonsens€ that is in them. They is always wantin’ a clane tablecloth an’ clane sheets to their beds. An' table napkins, no less! T'll tell you what, there’s sure people in this world that think they can go into a hotel an’ make. a convaniance of it’” : OLD SAYING SLIGHTLY MIXED Familiar “Before You 'Could Say Jack Robinson” Does Not Convey. the Right ldea. ; Opinion differs as to the proper duration of a social call. *“Anywhere from ten minutes to a half hour,” says the woman who has a social secretary and whose daily job is “calling,” to the tune of tea and-wafers. “All afternoon,” says the bourgeoisie, who takes along her knitting and sits down to coffee and cake. *“And then,” say some, - “it all depends upon the call. On some occasions and with different people we stay longer than others.”

But Jack Robinson’s ecalls never varied.- He never stayed long enough to wear out his welcome. In fact hardly had he been announced, hardly had the servant who admitted him spoken aloud his name than he was gone. So, as you see, “before you can say Jdck Robinson” has no reference to the time it takes to say it. “As long as you can see Jack Robinson” would be more in order with its origin and significance. : BEYOND POINT OF PERFECTION Porter’s Description of Train Scrvice Is Old, but Has Distinct Tinge of Humor. : - President Fairfax Harrison of the Alabama Great Southern railway, said at & luncheon in Richmond: ' “The old jokes about poor service on soime of ocur southern and western railroads are antiquated. No trains in the world are more punctual today than our trains, 'and accidents are practically unknown. “The story about the porter and the late traveler,” President Fairfax continued good humoredly, “is an old one. :

~ “A ftraveler, according to this story, just missed a train on a certain ’southern line, notorious for its poor - service, ind got the following consolation from:'a porter: ~ “‘She’s the punctuallest train, sir, [ on the line and a great annoyance to i travelers.'” ‘ ' £ . - See What He Started. : . Struck by the notice, “Iron sinks,” ; in a shop window a wag went inside and said he was perfectly aware of the fact that “iron sank.” - . Alive to the occasion the smart shopkeeper retaliated: ~ “Yes, and time flies, but wine vaults, sulphur springs, jam rolls, grass slopes, music stands, Niagara falls, moonlight walks, sheep run, Kent hops and holiday trips, scandal spreads, standard weights, India rubber tires, the organ stops, the world goes round, trade returns, and—" : : But the visitor had bolted. After collecting his thoughts he returne.d and showing his head at the doorway, shouted: “Yes, I know, and marble busts.”—lrish World.

Bride Runs Away. Some time ago I attended the wedding of my cousin. It was a quiet affair, the pastor coming to the home. When he was just about to pronounce them man and wife the bride began to cry and ran into the other room. The “groom followed her saying: “Mary, he isn't through yet.” : Domestic Economy. ; Mr. Spendit—We must be very ex-. travagant. Longsufferer tells me his market bills are half what ours are. His Wife—And did he also tell you his wife nags him at his meals till he gets mad and leaves the table? Then she serves what he leaves for his next meal. - » Piker. : . Footpad—ls this all the money you've got? : Smith—Yes, but that’s enough to send you to prison! Footpad—Here, take it back; It ain’t enough to keep me out, that’s certain! ok - Lost Opportunity. “It is a pity those people who used to fast for Week§ couldn’'t get the public interested in their theory.” “Why. so?”’ s : “Because if the idea had been taken up and practiced, the ultimate con- . sumer could be striking now.” Thinking of the Milliner’s Bill. De Grim—When an ostrich is sur prised he hides his head in the sand. De Grouch—ll wish he’d everlasting ly hide his tail feathers there. ‘ Mrs. R. D. Sinclair, of Chicago who had been a guest of her parents Mr and Mrs.J. L. Dunning was joined here Saturday by Mr. Sinclair for a short visit. Mrs. Sinclair attended the tuneral of Mrs. Hoffman. = l - Kolak Films Hieber’s Studio.
