- _You are more interested in a vacuum than you think for isn’t it a fact you like to see your rugs and carpets bright and clean and this can be done any day in the week without taking up the rugs. While they are on the floor 10 to 15 minutes with a HAMILTON BEACH will not only make them look new but at the same time more than 200 square feet per minute if pure air is drawn through the rug thereby purifying and making them a fit covering for the baby to romp upon. Did you get our offer, you can megotiate with us for one of these all aluminum vacuum cleaners in small weekly or monthly payments or at a saving for cash. Electric appliances are doing many things for the housekeeper and every day you put it off is lost motion.

: ‘To Amend Fish Law. The next legislature will be petitioned to amend the fish law so as to make an absolute closed season from May 1 to June 16. The present law applies only to blue gills and bass and it has been found that fisherman have caught many: of these varieties and thrown them back into the water to comply with the law and the fish thus caught have died. A closed season would do away with the.useless loss of fish, and the poacher would be open to detection for mo one would have any business on the lakes or streams. ; Lad Killed by Train. , = Elvie Bradbury 17 ‘year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Clark Bradbury living five miles south of Fort Wayne was instantly killed late Tuesday afternoon at Arcola when a truck in which he was haulding stone from a car, was struck by the Broadway Limited on the the Pennsy at the crossing just west of the station.at that town. ; © - Musical Entertainment ; Josiah Wysong, of Wolf Lake was in Ligonier Wednesday calling on old friends.

CAREERS FOR YOUNG BRITONS
Compared With Opportunities in America They May Be Said to Be 5 Decidedly Limited.
‘Here In America we are quite likely to take for granted that if a mag has a good education, then his finding of an opportunity to apply it profitably is a comparatively simple matter. Certainly our whole educational program, and especially our whole line of educational appeal and propaganda, will ‘have to be changed the moment that assumption is no longer to. be made, Whiting Willlams writes In Scribner’s. “Equip yourself, Young America, and the country’s yours!” we say in effect to our youth whether in school or at work. - ¢
In Britain there is much testimony to the effect that that assumption is not thus.fo be made.. i Unless they spend additional years training for medicine, the law, or other of the professions, graduates of the universities must pretty much expect to find herths in the civil service. The exams for that are extremely difficult. Those who come out of them with marks at the top of the list get the best of the positions in the most important departments at home, They next go out to India or other provinces, while those below them take the second grade of the places here—and SO on. - - i
The pay starts at about £3OO (nominally $1,500, and considerably more in buying power), with gradual yeasly increases up to a certain maximum and a pension. |
TAUGHT LESSON BY HUNGER Good Story of How Franklin Was Converted to the Idea of Fish - as Human Food. j One day Benjamin Franklin—James Parten tells us in his “Life of BenJamin Franklin”—was on a sloop which was becalmed |on a certain island. The sailors, as is atill the custom when a ship is becalmed, amused themselves by fishing. Franklin witnessed the catching of the fish with regret. But soon there came to tantalize: his nostrils a most alluring odor from the frying pan. So, as Franklip used to tell the story, he went over his reasoning again to see if there was not a flaw in it. ; It occurred to him that when the fish were opened he had seen smaller fish in their stomachs. “Ah!” said Franklin.- “If you eat one another I don’t see why we may not eat you!” : So Franklin dined upon the fish very heartily, and thereafter ate what others ate. When telling this story Franklin ended 'with an observation which is often attributed to Talleyrand, but which we are assured was a familiar Jjoke with Franklin. This was:. : ~ Sl “So convenlent a thing it 1s to be a reasonable creature, since it enables one to find or make a reason for everything one has a mind to do!”
' Persian Bread Has Many Uses. .. At Kasvin, Persia, a British patrol base, we were lodged in empty wards of the military hospital, writes Mary E. Griscom in Asia Magazine. Our Pprovisions had almost given out by ‘this time, and we were reduced to Persian stone bread. So far as I know, only the coconut and the bamboo serve more purposes than the flaps of Persian bread, which are ‘about two feet long, one foot wide and a quarter of an inch thick, If it is raining, the Persians use them on their heads as umbrellas; and If it is jsimny,- as parasols; in winter, they wrap the flaps around their shoulders. j.lf they do not need them for protecition they roll them up and carry ‘them under their arms. In the hos'pitals they spread them out on empty- | beds to dry. : : b
’ Up the Flowery Mountain. - Every year thousands of Chinese pilgrims risk their lives In climbing up the side of Hwa-Shan, the Flow‘ery mountain, which is sacred to the Taoist religion. Any one reaching the temple far above is supposed to have any request granted as a reward for valor and endurance. The Hwa-Shan mountain is over 6,000 feet high, and the ascent in many places must be made along a narrow ledge of branches laid on posts driven horizontally into the face of the precipice. There are no handrails, but a chain held on a rock face offers some security to the ascending or descending pilgrim. Entrance Must Have Made “Hit.” One Sunday morning a crowd was standing on the depot platform, a ghort distance from our home, waiting for an excursion train. The night before we had hung curtains around the broad front porch, and were sleeping out there on our steel-winged cot, as it was very warm. I was sleeping close to the edge and when my wife got up rather suddenly over went the cot and I rolled out onto the lawn, clad only in my nightshirt, fn plain view of the waiting crowd. = - Ididn’t go with my wife to meet the returning excursion that evening.—Exchange, . e

“The Gump” Big City Show Coming , Here, i
“The Gumps” the ingenious creation of Sidney Smith, the cartoonist, and the feature comic of many leading newspapers throughout the country, has been transformed into a farce comedy and Andy, Min%nd the rest of the cartoon family, will be revealed in all their comical idiosyncrasies here on Saturday June 18 ‘showing in a big waterproof tent threatre. In the stage version of the “The Gumps' the author is said fo have reflected the spirit of Smith’s creaticn admirably permitting a clever corps of funsters to vitalize these humorously causic and continuously interes:ing }Ferson_alities in a most telling manter. ‘ . :
The cast comprises top-notches of the farce comedy firmament, gifted with unusual versatility in fun making; jazz singing and novelty dancing. - While they say “one has seldom seem so much good clean comedy in a similar offering,” it is also asserted that this farce differs entirely from the conventional one, inasmuch as it unfolds an interesting and coherent story with every number logically and sequentially placed, the whole bristling with humorous situations rousing climaxes, rapid-fire fun and witty, snappy dialogue. = - : It is further alleged that the mounting and costuming af the “Fhe Gumps” furnish a riot of color, securing fitting atmosphere for the out of the ordinary innovations and musical introductions.
According to newspapers of other cities where the show played in regular Theatres the past winter, it is just about the- best and fupniest farce comedy that has ever been sent entour and local show goers are assured of a real treat when ‘“The Gumps” pitch their big rainproof tent theatre herc on Holm’s Show lot next Saturday Night-at 8 p. m. : -
