Recent rains have done wonders for the oats and a good many fields look very promising, - Corn is coming. on in fine shape now angd has a thrifty appearance anid a good color. Many fields of corn were “knee high by the Fourth” and it is said that when this is the case a good crop is assured. ‘

The sudden disappearance of Ed‘ward H. Schulte 37 of Fort Wayne who had been sent to Crestline Sunday by Pennsylvania officials to fill the place of a striker as a fire.knocker and engine hostler, was no longer a mystery when his body was found in a cinder pit by a crew of men cleaning ciders out of the basin.

'LITTLE, BUT VERY PRACTICAL

Occasionally the Small People Have Exceedingly Comprehensive Ideas . About Things Mundane. =

“What a splendid big boy!” said a lady visitor, addressing the small son of a distinguished novelist, whom she found deep in an illustrated fairy tale. “And you can spell out what it says under the pictures, can't you, dear? Why, it won't be long before you'll enjoy the stories your papa writes as much as any one!” ! . The little fellow regarded her gravely. “The stories papa writes aren’t meant to enjoy,” he explained. . “That’s the. stories he tells. The stories he writes are just to pay the butcher and the- grocer!” . - The . caller was naturally quite shocked at the child’s literal and mercenary acceptance of her favorite author’s jocular way of referring—within the family circle—to his literary labors. . { ;

' Many years ago a somewhat similar anecdote was related by the poet Bryant of his little daughter Julia. A neighbor, shown into the library where the little~gnaiden sat solitary upon the flpor, Wffl ‘a huge volume of Milton, with ore’s illustrations, spread open before her, inquired pleasantly, by way ‘of greeting: . “Reading poetry, already, little girl?”’ Little Julia corrected her politely, but with authority: = | : - “People don’t read poetry. Papas write poetry and mammas sing poetry, and little girls learn to say poetry, but. nobody reads poetry. . That isn’t what it's for!”—Philadelphia Inquirer., .

TWO MONTHS OF DAYLIGHT

Mystery and Witchery Offered to Travelers in the Land of the Mid 4 . night Sun. e

There is always mystery and witchery to the people of temperate climes In thinking of the Land of -the Midnight Sun, and accounts by travelers who “have witnessed its rare heauties are welcome as a page from some romance. J

From the end of May to the last days of July in Norway and Sweden the sun shines day and night witheut giving pldce to darkness. The stars are never seen during this time of continuous daylight, and the moen shineg pale and cold. Summer ‘is so short that the wild flowers have just enough time to grow, to bloom and to fade, and the farmer is barely able to gather in his harvest, which, however, is sometimes nipped by a summer frost. The midnight sun passes and a few weeks later the hours-of sunshine shorten rapidly, the air becomes chilly and: the nights colder, although the sun is warm during the day. All this happens by the middle of August, and then the grass turns yellow, the leaves change their color, wither aqd fall; the swallows and other migrating birds fly southward; twilight comes again, bringing the stars, one by one which now shine brightly in the pale blue sky; the moon appears again as queen of the night, lighting and cheering the long, dark days of the Scandinavian winter.—New York Herald.

Repair Shops for Airplanes.

The enormous use of airplanes -during the European war has resulted in an extensive use of special motor airplane repair shops. iy ' These portable airplane factories were first used by the French, and are marvels of ingenuity, for, in addition to carrying propellers and wings- for airplanes, they are fitted with lathes, drilling machines, forges and in fact, most of the apparatus necessary to completely rebuild an airplane except, of course, thg gngihe. = . - oo Fitted with powerful engines these airplane motors can get up a tremendous speed despite their weight, and are quickly on the scene of any airplane smash. : e : In the roofs of many of these motors, by the way, are windows or openings through which an observer can watch the flight of the airplanes.— Cleveland News-Leader. . ;

A Futile Love.

. Senator Borah said at a dinner in Boise: .- ’ Rl R g

“We all’' love ' peace, universal peace, yet we do nothing to hasten its advent. This makes us seem foolish and futile, like the sailor. ~ “Two sailors in a sallors’ boarding house got into an argument about the meat they were eating. The first said it was beef. The second said it was pork, - 4 Sk “‘Shiver me timbers, it's beef,’ said the first. o ‘ “ ‘lt’'s pork, ye lubber,” said the sec-ond—A-1 pork. 28 S r i

“‘Well, it tastes like beef, anyway,’ said the first sallor, ‘but I hope you're right, for I love a.bit of pork.”

Ants Eat Flowers.

A new type of ant, large, viclous and prolific, is playing havoc with the flow er industry of the Itallan Riviera. Horticulturists are required jto report the appearance of this pest immediately and to take prescribe eps for its destruction. The ants are supposed to have been introduced from the Argentine.—Scientific American. -

_The Flip Flapper. - “Now, Madge, I'm not squeamish, but if you want to make g good impression upon iy aunt you've got to peel off some of that war paint. She doesn’t so much as powder her nose.” “Why, Tommy, what a shining ex~ample of old-fashioned virtue your aunt® must be l";Jhdge. e - Notice to the Pablles From: June 15th to Saptgmber st our office hours ‘will be from 9:00 8, they will be from § A.

L e FUZZLES MEN OF LEARNING

Whether Petrified Sole of Shoe Is a Fosgil or Freak of Nature, o Is Question. | ;

What appears to be the petrified sole of a carefully made shoe has been submitted by John T. Reid, a mining engineer of Lovelock, Nev., to Dr. James F. Kemp, professor of geology at- Columbia university, and to Dr. William D. Matthew, paleontologist of the American Museum of Natural History. ; 2 | ’

If it is what it looks like, it Is proof that human beings were walking about in shoes of finer workmanship than 'are made today on this contiffent, between 10,000,000 and 300,000,000 years ago, the New York Times states. The seeming fossil was found in blue limestone of the Triassic period on a summit in the southerrn extremity of the ‘Humboldt mountain range in Nevada.

- Both Doctor Matthew and Doctor Kemp said that the object was the most surprising imitation by nature of the workmanship of man which had ever come to their attention, but that it was absolutely impossible that it could be a genuine fossil because the evidence was overwhelming that -the career of human beings on earth was not over half a million years, whereas the Triassic rock of which the neatly sculptured sole is made mere ancient.

It would fit nicely a boy of ten or twelve years. The’edges are as smooth as if freshly cut. But the surprising part of it is what seems to be a double line of stitches, one near the outside edge of the sole and the other about a third of an inch inside the first. The “leather” 'is thicker inside the inner welting and appears to be slightly beveled so that at the margin, half an inch wide, which runs outside, the sole is something like an eighth of an inch thick. % e

The symmetry is maintained perfectly throughout. The perfect lines pursued by the welting and the.appearance of hundreds of minute holes through thch the sole was sewed to the shoe are the things which make the object such an.extraordinary freak in the eyes of the scientists who examined it. ; 4 -

SPECIAL DAINTIES FOR LENT

How Rigors of the Season of Fasting ~ Were Alleviated in the “Good ' Old Days.”

Our ancestors were in.the habit of observing Lent with such strictness that they promoted the fish industry almost as greatly as they did their own spiritual welfare, But their religious zeal did not altogether discourage their epicurean taste, and certain particularly palatable ways of preparing fish became great delicacies. Herring pie tickled the fancy even of royalty. The city of Yarmouth, England, was bound, by an ancient charter, to make the king an annual present of 100 herrings baked in 24 pies; and certain gentlemen in the reign of Edward I held their land by tenure of supplying these same dainties for the royal table. Lampreys were also a favorite Lenten dish, These became so popular that they formed the subject of various royal edicts, and decrees, and the city of Gloucester gained great renown through the excellence of its prepared lamprey product. The whale, the porpoise, the grampus and the sea-wolf, while not exactly fish, were considered fishy enough to be suitable for Lenten consumption, and .great prices were paid for especially toothsome morsels of these animals. T : :

How It Happened.

Frank and Paul are playmates. Paul is one year-older than Frank, and, accordingly, is in an advanced class at school, Frank’s father is constantly urging him to study with greater energy that he may come up with Paul. The other day Frank came home from school, his face radiant with smiles. .

~ He exclaimed: “Papa! Papa!l I lam up with Paull” R “Good, my son,” said his father, “in what class are you now?” : . “Oh, I am in the same class,” replied Frank. , : ~ “But I thought you said you were up -with Paul?" e b L ““Well, I am. They put Paul back.”

Standard of Measurement.

In 1889 twenty nations decided to take their standard-of ‘length from a platinum scale; now France, the jealous guardian of this piecé of metal, is alarmed to find that it has lengthened by a demimicron, or five-mil lionths of a metre, says the Secientific American. The only explanation available is that the annual cleaning of the bar may have been responsible for displacing the platinum molecules. It will be carefully watched for the next ten years and the cleaning may have to be abandoned. e i e

Spread of Health Service,

% Surgeon General Cumming of the ' United States public health service makes a direct appeal when he says: “The crying need of the country is petter organization of health work in the rural communities. A survey made by the United States public health gervice two years ago showed that only 3 per cent of our.rural districts had adequate health organization. It ‘s’ a pleasure to anngunce that thi number has increased during the la£ two years from 8 to 6 per cent!” . Baby Sea Travel Increases. .
