decide how you will be classed Inter on. Let’s measure, if possible, the dollars and cents value of going to school. In the United States as a whole, taking conditions at large, the uneducated man can not hope for more than 11.50 a day for 300 working days, or $450 a year. We’ll give him the generous allowance of forty working years. Total income. $18,000. Take the low estimate of $1,000 a year for the educated man. The averagr difference in education is less than 2,200 days. But calling it 2,200, the average return during a lifetime for each day in school is $10. Ten dollars a day! Can you beat it?”

Manager Glenn Harriman brought to the Crystal Theatre Saturday night the beautiful sixi reel picture, “The Last Days of • Pompeii,’’ and-to say that thepro1 duotion here of this great photodrama pleased his patrons is saying it very mildly. It had been Manager Harriman’s intention to give a matinee performance Saturday afternoon also, but because of the train being five hours late, on account of a freight wreck east, the film did not arrive until just in time to be used for the evening show. The fact that the film was on this belated train, and which became known, lessened the crowd for the night show under what it would have been otherwise. A splendid crowd saw and appreciated this great photo-drama, people were loud in their praise of the picture, and people who seldom ever see moving pictures came to see this one, and were glad that they had done so. Those who failed to improve the opportunity to see this live picture are not aware of the'great treat they missed.

tion. Perfect harmony prevailed and the work of the convention was done quickly. There were no contests by candidates for any of the offices, ail nominations being made by acclamation. The following is the ticket named:— Trustee—John Merritt.

Bought Linden Telephone Plants.

Both the Bell system and the Co-operative telephone system at Linden have been purchared by J. H. Akers of LaFayette, and the two systems will be united. Mr. Akers also owns the Wingate and Elmdale telephone systems, and has recently purchased the Romney system also. Mr. Akers is now in possession of his new plant at Linden and has begun the work of transforming the two systems into one.

By winning both ends of their double header at Mellott Sunday while New Richmond was splitting even with Linden, Wingate assumed the lead in the Clover Leaf League. The games at Linden were hotly contested, the first game going ten innings. The features of the games were the remarkable pitching of Miller, who pitched both games for New Richmond and struck out 15 men. The score by innings was as follows: —

When Living Was High.

In these days when the head of the family is fretting because of the high cost of the necessities of life, the following which comes from Sedalia, Missouri, will be of interest:

My Friends, I Thank You!

I wish to extend to my patrons of the Crystal Theatre, and more especially to those who sanctioned by their presence and kind words the production of that grand six-reel picture, “The Last Days of Pompeii,” my heartiest thanks and happy greetings. I wish to say also that this is not all, but that other and no less attractive special feature pictures are yet to come. Bug.

A bill of Brandt & Bros., grocers dated July 3, 1869, was found today by Peter Brandt, and is of unusual interest because of the recent increases in the prices of food stuffs. In July, 1869, these charges were made:

ing up the entire supply. It is stated that there is sufficient dye on hand to last about two months.

If tho European war does not cease within a few weeks and there seems little prospects that it will, everybody will have to wear white stockings. Aniline, the chemical base of all dyes comes from Germany. It is said that there is no aniline produced in this country, Manufacturers of dyed goods have practically exhausted the supply in this country.

It is the intention of the mannger to give another special feature along this line soon again, and if they continue to prove as popular as the Saturday night show, he may give one of such special features once a month.

Soon it is expected that everybody will be wearing white hose on all occasions and the old black stand-by will be given a temporary release.

The Latest Ford Story.

Let the Children Write.

Wm. A. McBeth and wife came up from Torre Haute Friday for a short stay, driving through in their automobile.

A number of automobile owners passed hence without day and up the shining way on high to the Gates of Pearl. To the first arrival St. Peter said; “What make is your car?” “It is a Pierce-Arrow,” was the reply. “Well,” said St. Peter, “You’ve had fun enough. You turn into that road running down hill.” And so likewise he questioned and directed the drivers of Cadilacs, Hudsons and oth-

Next Sunday New Richmond meets Wingate in a' double header on the home grounds, which will close the season, and to win the penant of the Clover Leaf League New Richmond must win both of these games and the home boys expect to put forth their best efforts to accomplish that end. The first game will bo called promptly at 2 o’clock, and a large crowd is expected to be in attendance.

Perhaps many a poor penman would have written a more creditable hand if in childhood he had had a desk of his own, in a suitable place, provided with materials for writing at such times as he chose. It would have seemed an art more worth cultivating under such conditfons than when he had to write on his knees or on a littered table.

Every child’s room should have a private desk or table where he may write. Here he should have a stock of pens, penholders, pads and writing paper, and he should be trained to use these materials frequently, says Mother’s Magazine. Such a bit of property helps him to cultivate neatness and order. If he evidences slovenliness at first, the mother should urge him to orderliness and inspect his desk until he has attained neatness.

er classy oars. Finally a little car came hobbling along and drew up in front of the gate. “What do you call that thing?” demanded St. Peter. “It’s a Fold,’’ answered the driver. “Well,” said St. Peter, “If you have made it up the hill in that thing you certainly have come triumphantly through trials and tribulations. Drive right in and pack your car anywhere on the Golden Street.

It should be impressed upon him that this is part of his training, that as a man he will always need to keep his papers iu place and in order, and that if he is to be in the employ of others it will be to his advantage to have formed good habits in such matters. The child will take pride in possession of his own desk and pens, and this will lead him to the cultivation of the use of pen and ink.

Putting It Up To The Boy.

Keen to anticipate the first effects of the tariff revision—which lowered the prices of Woolen* Blankets at once —we bought heavily before the rise and therefore early buyers can save up to as much as 25 per cent. W 7 hile we call this a ‘‘'September Sale” yet the chances are strongly in favor of a quickened demand and an early closing out of every blanket in the lot.
