Obituary.

Joseph W. Houser was born near Wolf Lake, York township, Noble county, Indiana, August 12, 1855, and departed this life at the family residence on Martin - street, Ligonier, February 19, 1923, age 67 years six months and scven days. . ~ Joseph Houser was united in marriage to Alba M. Young on'December 20, 1893. To this union were born three daughters, May, Edna Claire and Edith Janet. “Little May” the first born 'was also the Irst to break ‘the family circle.’ She went to Heaven at the tender age of three years. : i Joseph W. Houser was a farmer by choice and training. He spent many pleasant years in practical farm life; the ‘later twenty-five years of which was.on the “Home place” near Wolf Lake where he reared his famiiy-and{ from whence he retired, because of failing health, when the family came to Ligonier some three years ago. - For twenty years he has been a member of the Knights of Bythiag and .was a sincere advocate of the order’s high principles and enjoyed its brotherhood and wide fellowship. He declared his faith in, and love

for the Christ and His kingdom many years ago. Since 1898 he has been a membefr of the Walf Lake Bapfist church. While not a man of many. words, yet the current of his life ran deep and consistent and his neighbors and friends who knew him well and were close in association with him |in life’s uneven road, held him.in the | highest esteem for his family ani sterling Christian- worth. / - For the past five years his general health has been failing while for the past two years he has been practically an.invalid. On Wednesday he suffered a stroke of paralysis and on Monday evening-last at 11 p. m. he entéred into rest.’ - : Surviving him of his immediate family, are his widow, his two daughters, Mrs. Edna C. French of Littleton, Colo., and Edith Jenat of Ligonier, two sisters a one-half brother Services at the home at 1:30 ‘on Wednesday p .m., Rev. J.'F. Lutey in charge. Interment at Sparta.

Pockets of Marbles in Lava.

If prehistoric lads did not enjoy the regular spring game of “mibs” it was not for want of glass marbles.. PockLots of marbles, formed by the molten lava, have recently been found on the west slopes of Mount Adams, Washington, and indications point to an El‘dorado of them. The substrata, under a thin layer of earth and leaf mould, contains an unlimifed number of the spheroidal bits of stone. Many of them are perfect in shape and just about. the right size for childhood’s old-time game. The theory advanced as to their origin is that the molten laya sprayed high iato the air, was cooled by a :icold air current and in falling ‘the rounded drops solidified in the same manner as bullets are formed while the hot lead drops from the shot tower, : P

Another German Prodigy.

Germany has another memory prodigy in a twenty-one-year-old girl, who has mastered the art of brain control over muscle most completely. She sings a German song, writes an English sentence with her right hand, and a French sentence with her left hand at the same time. Also writes a sentence in oré language backwards, and another in a different language In the regular way. She can calculate with one hand and write dictation backwards with the other. She can also begin a sentehce at both ends ahd completé it in‘ the middle, using both hands. She does several other things which really seem beyond the limit of credulity.— Scientific American. e

Names of Famous Persons.

The pupils of the fifth grade in St. Joan of Arc’s parochial school were asked to write a ‘story of Christmas. A book was offered as ‘a prize for the . best story. It was ‘decided that the authors should write the name of some famous person on the stories in order to keep the teacher from recognizing the writers of the stories. ~ -~ = - The majority of the pupils wrote such names as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson' and President Harding. 'The prize was . won by a little red-headed youngster: named Mike Fox. :The name he had written on his story was Paul Castner. —lndianapolis News. - j :

Dangérous Subject.

There was a self-made man whose plenteous pile was not altogether free from taint. - o ‘He employed an expensive architect to build him a lordly pleasure house. “I think,” remarked the man . eof plans, ‘“that you had better have a southern exposure.” . ;s The man of money grew red and shuffled his feet. . : . “Not so much of the ‘exposure,’ ” he growled, “if you want to retain your contract.” e :

THAT FIRST DOLLAR SAVED

Small Amount, of Course, but It Has ' a Value Far Beyond Its In- . - trinsic Worth.: ' o ~ It is a very common thing to hear a clever, capable man or woman accused of not knowing “the value of a dollar,” or of not being able to “save a dollar.” Before you can make money youmust first have a true appreciation of the value of $1; not the value of $l,OOO or $lOO,OOO, but the trtie value of $l, says a writer in Thrift. You have often heard the expression: “To him a dollar looks as large as a house.” While this expression is usually applied to a persop who is miserly, it would, nevertheless, be an excellent thing if every thriftless person would place a higher appreciation upon $l. : :

' The average person does not throw his earnings awdy in large sums. .He wastes $1 here and $1 there in an un- | thinking manner, | When you enter the office of a successful business man and find the first dollar he made in his business hanging upon the wall in a frame you can,, almost invariably, look around and see a great, prosperous establishment., Whatever has, been accomplished by that man is largely due to the value ‘he placed upon the first dollar he _made. ; ; : ~ Every large fortune or. prosperous business establishment has for its corner stone $l. When you save $1 and put it to- work for you in a gagings bank you have laid the foundation of your fortufé and placed: your first dollar saved where it is available for production. } s

’ LITTLE AFFECTED BY FILTH | ey i Modern Race of Arabs Are Seemingly Imimune From Generally Fatal = Zymotic Diseases. o _ Northern Arabia is a land virtually destitute of lakes and streams, and during the dry season even the infrequent wells cannot be depended-ufion; so that the provision, of a sufficient water is a primary consideration. The Arabs carry their own drinking supply in large goatskins, two of which are usually slung under the belly of each camel, but the water .in these, usually .of doubtful origin, quickly acquires a taste which makes it almost undrinkable for Europeans. : | . When the supply in the goatskins xuns low, it is w:plenished at the desert wells with wager so inconceivably foul that no one lfit an Arab could drink it and live to tell about it. I imagine, however, that every Arab susceptible g’:o zymotic digeases died thousands of years ago, and that by the law of the survival of the fittest, all Arabs born now are immune from filth diseases. * This is the only explanation of why they can drink sewage water with im‘punity, go for months at a time without bathing, wear garments which are caked with dirt and crawl with vermin, and thrive under -conditions which ‘would kill a white man in a week.—E. Alexander Powell in the Century Magazine. : ' S :

Easy Way to. Make Friends.

A Long Island commuter who found it somewhat difficult to make acquaintances when he first moved to his town and who has known of others in & similar plight, says he has solved the trouble. ; ; “Take it from me,” he remarked, “it is the simplest thing in the world, and the cost is not burdensome.| Get a nest of light and easily-handled ladders and a good, substantial collapsible stepladder, and that’s all there is to it. -- “At the season when everybody is putting on storm windows, the fellow who has easily handled ladders of various lengths and is willing to lend them is bound to be the most popular chap in the neighborhood. - 1 “The borrowing and lending breaks theice,sand the rest develops in natural course. The fellow with the ladders will be ‘it’ until spring and then e will share the distinction with the neighbor who is the fortunate possessor of a lawn roller.”—New York Sun.

Average Would Be Maintained.

‘Bret Harte ‘was: once . lecturing at Harrisburg, in Virginia, and on the morning of his arrival had such a terrible headache that he said He would cheerfully have died ‘there land then. He ‘went for a walk, accompanied by the person who was to take the chair at his lecture. The latter told him that Harrisburg was a very healthy place, the death rate averaging only one per diem. ! “Godd heavens!” said Harte, who had been telling his companion how he felt, “has .today’s man died yet?”’ The other, never suspecting it was a Joke, said he would try and find out. Next morning he came to Harte and said: *“I couldn’t find out exactly about - that- man yesterday—the coroner said he couldn’t say precisely who he was, but whoever it was, he would average all right.” . ;

Discoverer of Riches Got Little.

It is a curious example of the irony of fate that in the history of spectacular gold discoveries the one to discover the treasure trove has seldom been enriched or maintaingd permanent ‘wealth. A striking illustration is found in the life history of Robert M. Womagk, the cattleman who discoyeredt the famous Cripple Creek region, “Bgb” Womack died penniless on August 11, 1909, aged sixty-six years, after a lingering illness in 'a sanitarium where for years he had been supported. by relatives. Yet something like $250,000,000 was the value of the ‘outpat from the Cripple Creek mines. - For Sale—Sanitary Lunch Cloths. Will glady call and show samples Mrs, Audley Green.
