Hog Cholera Adive. _ It behooves the farmers of this locality to exercise every precaution to try to prevent an outbreak of hog cholera here, A few suggestions on the care of hogs are timely. Keep the hogs in good condition. Keep the premises where they run cleaned up and watch the hogs closely for the first signs of sickness. If you have an animal that is ailing call a veterinary at once, and if it is the cholera immediate vaccination of the herd will save practically all of them. A clean sanitary hog lot with plenty of fresh water to drink and keeping the wallow holes and mud holes fills ed up will go a long way toward raising the immunity of the animaly and lessening their liability to take the disease. The losses sustained jannually in this - country from hog cholera are appalling and this is the season of the year when farmers should take every precaution to protect not only their own herds but those of their neighbors. -

Unlettered Men Best at Coinage of Words
The best of all word makers are the unlettered. Professor Gildersleeve sald that the masses own the language. Malherbe, the exquisite Parisian poet and connoisseur of words, frankly owned that his masters of speech were the porters in the Haymarket. - When Roosevelt was a ranch owner and had been felling trees with his men, he happened to overhear one of them say, “Bill cut down fifty-three, I cut forty-nine, and the boss he beavered down seventeen.”:
Roosevelt, who always enjoved a good joke on himself, went on, “Those who have ever seen the stump of a tree gnawed down by a beaver will mnderstand the exact force of the comparison.” ‘
» We have always needed a word for mistake as #pplied to actlon, and the Maine gulde has coined it. When he runs his canoe upon a rock or chooses & channel with insuflicient water, he makes a “misgo.” _ A homespun New England philosopher in southern California -coined an excellent verb. ITle was arguing that sterling qualities of heart are rarer than those of head. “Oh, h—L" he exclaimed, “why, you can just go out and huckleberry for brains, but a heart of gold is as rare as a dingmaul.” i
Freedom From Duty , ~ Essenice of Leisure Leisure means real- freedom. It means freedom not only from technical “working hours,” but also from anything like compulsory social demands. It should spell a time sacred to the initiative, the bent, the mood, even, of the individual; a tiine wherein he gets elbow room to search and find himself renewedly, a Boston Transeript writer Rays. Iven if, by way of a. silent declaration of independence, the individual shall loaf a little during these hallowed hours of relaxation, the loafing may have its uses. Family duties excepted, these hours belong to oneself, not necessarily for fostering selfishness, but as a chance to get one’s bearings and to “invite one’s Soul.” It is the freedom to use this time as one lists that is the very essence of leisure. - - S Freedom of any kind entails corresponding responsibilities, no doubt, but due freedom itself must not be questloned. Yet mordl or social coercion is always powerful enough to coerce action, and if a community be bent on coercion of that kind, the individual either '‘becomes a slave or is made pretty miserable by the assertion of his inalienable right to due leisure. How much does each of us really get?
Pretty Rebuke
Sir James Barrie in his younger days was much interested in amateur theatricals. On the stage he usually took the part of a woman. In a recent address he said: “On one occasion when the curtain rose on.my husband and me about to partake of breakfast, my husband, in his stage fright, pulled the table cover and its contents to the floor. How would a superb actress have risen to that emergency? I have asked some of them, and none of them conceived anything equal to what Adele did—Adele was my name. I went behind him, and, putting my arm around his neck, I said: ‘You clumsy darling’!”—Youth’s Companion. ,
Famous Spot in India
The Vale of Kashmir is an elevated valley in the Himalayas, north of the Punjab, through which flows the river. Jhelum. It is about 120 miles long, with a mean breadth of 75 miles, and is famed for the beauty of its scenery and the charm of its climate. Its altitude varies from five thousand to seven thousand. feet, and owing to its altitude and consequent coolness, it is visited during the.hot months of summer. It is said that the natives of the Vale of Kashmir derive the peculiar pattern that marks all India shawls from the graceful curves of the River Jhelum as It meanders through the valley—Kansas City Times.
Cattle in London Streets
The custom of driving pigs, sheep and cattle through the streets, a practice begun centuries ago when London was a village, Is still being carried on. However, it is seldom that the publie generally witnesses the sight, as the work is done during the early hours of the morning. A herd of cattle, delaye'fi on its way to the market, got into a traffic jam recently in Holborn, one of the city’s main thoroughfares, and extra policemen had to be called to assist the drivers in their task of getting the animals started again, The present-day city regulations provide that live stock can be driven through the streets only between the hours of midnight and five in the morning.
Cost Was High A certain gentleman of good positfon, but rather irascible temperament, was repairing his motor car on the road after a breakdown, and using language during the process scarcely becoming a Christian. A lady aecquaintance, who was passing, stopped to exchange greetings with the irate motorist’s wife, and during the conversation that ensued. took oceasion to ask: “Can you tell me how much it costs your husband to run his car?” “Indeed, I can,” said the wife; “it is going to cost him his fmmortal soul if he doesn’t improve his language.” —Victorian. : b | - Mrs. Clarence M. Harris who recently died in Goshén left an estatg of $55,000, : She thought she had married a millionaire nobleman but he was only masquerading. “In the name of Love”‘ see it next Sunday and Monday,
Protection of Birds ' of Vital Importance
Birds, according to the biological survey of the United States Department of Agriculture, are one of nature’s important agencies for keeping down the overwhelming hordes of insect life. Nest boxes should be put up and shrubbery planted to make up tfor the disappearance of the hollow trees and young wild growth in which birds once built their nests. Water for drinking and bathing should be supplied in summer and shelter and food provided in winter. Protection of birds from their natural and unnatural enemies is not the least important consideration, the biological survey says. :
The boy with the air rifle, the native or the foreign-born adult with his gun, the red squirrel and other small animals, the rainstorm and the windstorm, and the house cat all take their toll of wild bird life. Years ago the depredations of the cat on the birds caused- little concern, but now that probably 25,000,000 ‘cats blanket the United States, people are waking up to the increasing necessity of protecting birds against them. It is not necessary that householders part with their pets, but these potential bird destroyers should be kept from unduly increasing, if the effort is to be made more -effective .to prevent them from killing the song birds.
Seal Originally Used ‘ - in Lieu of Signature
The red: seal used upon all legal documents is a survival of the days when people were not blessed with the educational advantages of today. The majority of the people could neither read nor write. In those days the seal was used instead of a signature. It was a disaster if the seal were stolen, for the thief had:in his possession a perfect instrument. of forgery. 'The seals belonging to a corporation or a company are still used to authenticate important documents. In this respect the seal acts as a safeguard against forgery. In the eye of the law a document issued by a company and merely sealed, not signed, would probably be accepted as authentiec. The most important seal in the country is, of course, the Great Seal. It is kept in a metal case, and the-color of the wax used is always yellow. At the death of the monarch the seal, after being “defaced,” becomes the property of the lord chancellor. Only second in importance is the so-called Privy Seal. No document can be sealed with the Great Seal until it bears the authority of the Privy Seal.—London Times. :
Costly Funerals
History shows the lavish expenditure of public funds when royal funerals were held in European countries. The most expensive funeral in modern times was that of old Emperor William. It cost the city of Berlin $430,000; and the imperial treasury expended in addition, the sum of $550,000. : - The most expensive funeral in the history of England was given the duke of Wellington, the cost being one-half million dollars, while the funeral of Queen Victoria cost $175,000 and that of King Edward cost England $200,000. In comparison with these heavy costs the recent funeral for President Ebert of Germany gives a picture of thrift, the total cost being slightly less than sso,ooo.—Ohio State Journal. = .
Odd British Industry
“Drudging” is a recognized industry in English ports. The professional “drudger” with the aid of long and specially constructed poles called “hitchers,” salves coal-during the process of coaling ship. The ‘“drudging” fleet, a collection of queer little broadbeamed boats, is to be seen at work at all waterside places where ships take in coal or discharge it. A ecertain amount of coal falls overboard into the river or harbor mud, from which it is retrieved by the “drudgers,” who wash it, take it ashore, and sell it to householders at a low price. Coal “drudging” is a skilled occupation, and one that is handed down from father to son. » o
Origin of Slang
Originally, slang stood for the. jargon deliberately adopted as a kind- of secret language by certain classes. The word, for instance, has been traced back to the ‘“slang” or letters worn by convicts, and the words which they used to niislead their wardens became known as slang. Whether this is the real explanation or not is uncertain—various other origins of the term have also been suggested—but the fact remains that slang started as a secret jargon known only to a certain number of people. Today the meaning has considerably broadened, and we speak of slang as all words and expressions which are outside the ‘“official” language of our own -times. ; '
" Sitka Spruce , The Sitka or tideland spruce is a large tree occurring abundantly from northern California to Alaska, following the coast as far as the island of Kodiak. It is one of the largest trees of North America, attaining in low regions a height of more than 300 feet and a diameter of 7 or 8 feet at 100 feet from the base. Specimens upon the islands in southeastern Afaska measured more than 200 feet in height and 26 feet in circumference 4 feet from the ground. The timber is very valuable, entering into all kinds of bullding operations. - Is Rapidly Improving, Harry Green, who has been taking ‘treatment in a Goshen hospital is rapidly recovering and will soon return home. & Eli Pollock civil war veteran will spend a couple of months with hisl daughter Mrs. Poyser near ‘Syracuse.
