Which I think I deserve the patronage of the home laundry business. My prices are lower than any laundry in this part of the country having given to the people of Ligonier the advantage of the advance in prices of all supplies and labor. But I can not continue so with out the support of my home friends. If work coritinues to go to Kendallville, I will have to advance my prices or quit the Laudry business. With your support I can give to Ligonier the best of service and wowsk and also continue to improve. Is it not good for our home community to have a Laundry giving good service? We are here for that purpose, so let us hear from you by phone 86 or in person. - : Our Mott “Home first” _ JESSE G. DEWEY, Prop. ;

Want Steoek Inspector. The Indiana Federation of Farmers Organizations desire to have arepresentative at the Indianapolis stock yards and have submitted the foliowing proposition to- comrission mer chants. : B

“That all members of our organization, producers and sellers, pay 1 cent per head on all hogs, calves #nd sheep and 4 cents per head on all esttle sold on the market in the leading stock yards of the state. -

~ “That such amounts be collected by the commission firms at these yards and deducted from the proceeds of the sales, this amount to be tursed over the first of each month to the treasurer of our wrganization for the purpose of creating a permanent live stock fund. S :

“The purpose of the above. is to raise funds whereby we may maintain one of our’ representatives at the Indianapolis yards, and later, if nscessary, in other yards of the state. “In addition we, expect to have an expert in charge of the general-live stock intefests of the state to give all his time in the promotion of better stock - raising marketing, transportation and study of economic conditions, along with producing problems: with their relation to econony, ete.”

‘Wil History Repeat? : The writer well remembers when republican congressmen decided to put Theodore Roosevelt out of the way. Roosevelt had served out the term of the martyred McKinley and was a candidate to succeed himself. The republican congressional members enter ed into a conspiracy to defeat him. As a result few of the conspirators were returned to Washington and Roosevelt was triumphant. There is a disposition on the part of a bunch of democratic congressmen to discredit Presjdent Wilson's administration. While- Mr. Wilson is not a candidate, he: will come pretty near knowing who his friends are and the mischief makers will fare about as well as the republi¢an insurrectionists did under Roosevelt. History will repeat itself. - Licensed Milk Dealers. Milk dealers in Indiana are required to -obtain licenses from heslth officers in the towns or cities in which they operate, according to new milk handling rules passed by the state board of health. New milk standards also are set. The new regulations will become effective when promulgated, which the board announced will be az soon as a bulletin announcing the change is printed and ready for distribution. - . : L

The board further established three grades of milk and ordered dealers to obtain permits to label the milk they sell under one of thé grades.” The three grades are:Grade A, raw milk produced under prescribed sanitary conditions; grade AA pasteurized milk and grade B, cooking milk. - Whants Women Delegates. . Congressman Fdirfield demands that his party send at least one woman ‘delegate to the republican convention in Chicago. The gentleman should be “strong enough in his district to see to it that a woman is chosen. . Now let him take a hitch in his galluses, roll up his sleeves andgo to it. Docs not the Twelfth district in Indiana belong to him? S : . Ed Platt Is Robbed. =~ = In an item in twenty-five years ago the Goshen News-Times says: “Ed--ward Platt, a young man about 23 vears of age, whose home is in Ligonier, was robbed of his watch and a sum of money last night at about 's:3o o'clock. The robbers were Mack Hardy and John Dwyer. They are now in jail here.” . !

In this age of witches, goblins, med. icine men and leeches superstition flourished. Some of the maost Intel lectual minds of the time aceredited charms and soothsayvers. It was there fore nothing extraordinary for the pope to decree the exclamation “God hless you!" by ansone who heard a sneeze. This was supposed to combhat its evil powers and prevent the spread of the disense. And “God bless you!" with its kindly human intercst has come down througl. the Ages. . S

NEW IN THE ANI!MAL WORLD “Okapi” Astonished Explorers, and Only a Few Specimens Have =~ Ever Been Obtained. fßome time hefore 1800, Stanley. the explorer, had word from the plgmy negroes of a new heast in the impene trable depths of the virgin forest which borders the Semliki river In the Belgian Congo. The Wambatti natives described it as a specles of donkey and ealled It “Attl” From their fur ther description, it ‘seemed to be a hoofed animal of considerable slze, which lived upon leaves, In 1800 Sir Harry Johnston himself saw the pigmies, who fully confirmed what Stanley had already told him, but added that the strange beast was striped like A zebra.. .

In 1901 a Swedish officer, M. Karl Erikson, obtained a complete skin and two skulls,. which he sent to Sir Harry Johnston, who then believed the beast to be of the giraffe tribe, previously found in ‘a fossil state in Greece. It was, however, proved conclusively that although of the giraffe family it was not the animal of ancient Greece, but a. new beast altogether., It was subsequently given the name of “okapl.” No more than a dozen specimens of this wonderful beast have been secured. ; ; aer,

“The People of the Pelup Peninsula®™ We were floating down the beautiful Plongdong when, descrying a glorious whangdoop hid amongst the igfans along the swamgit (shore), I instantly ordered ‘the mogpong to row the goopang toward it. Obeying my command with an alacrity that proved his devotion to me, the little fellow pulled lustily on the right tingwop (oar or paddle) until, by virtue of his efforts, we were headed .in the directionswhence had come the vision of the multi-col-ored whangdoop. My readers will readily appreciate the tremendous excitement that seized me when I say that the whangdoop was of unusual size and of a conformation that would preclude the possibility of anyone for 2 moment mistaking it for the ogplup, which, as everyone knows, it so much resembles.—(After the Manner of Most Travel Articles.)—From Life, ‘Woman “Spilled the Beans™ . Less than a century ago a German professor of chemistry succeeded repeatedly in producing small quantities of gold, which he exhibited to fellow scientists whose keen intérest may well be imagined. It was later ascertained that a devoted servant, anxious to give his master pleasure, had bought gold leaf and surreptitiously contributed it to the contents of the crucible. One one occasion, however, the servant was sent on a distant errand, ,and left money with his wife for the purchase of the requisite gold leaf. She spent the money for drink, buying instead some *“Dutch metal” which she put into the pot. This led to a discovery of the fraud, prompt revelation of which by the professor gave rise. to immense amusement.

- Old Chinese Burial Places. Shanghai's old buildings on the Bund are rapidly disappearing, and with their destruction many discoveries In the way of old burial places are be ing made. While excavating for a new building two Chinese graves were Qiscovered. Upon being opened, the coffins were found to be in a good._de-

gree of preservation, considering th® length of time they must have been lylng in the swamp.: The inscriptions upon the stone tablets marking the graves are llligible, so any conecture as to their age is almost impossible. An urn containing a quantity qf bones was alse unearthed. . o
