The farmer gets more out of the fair than anyone else. The fair to a city man is an entertainment; to a farmer it is education. Let us take a stroll through the fair grounds and linger a moment at a few of the points of greatest interest. We will first visit the mechanical department and hold communion with the world’s greatest thinkers.

“Teacher, may I please pass the water?” “Teacher, may I borrow Willie’s lead pencil?” Never, never again, child. Not since the board of health says that pupils no longer drink out of the same cup or loan their pencils to each other during lessons. The old customs, ns old eb school days, must give way to the health rule. The common drinking cup and the common towel were given a body blow yesterday when the state board of health issued an order forbidding their use in the public schools of Indiana. “Each pupil must have an individual drinking cup or sanitary bubble fountains shall be provided,” reads the state board’s order, “Each pupil must have an individual towel or sanitary paper towels must be provided.” All modern school buildings are equipped with the sanitary water fountains, but hundreds of schools in Indaina still use the common drinking cup. The drinking cup, now thrt the state board of health has acted, will not be tolerated hereafter. The state board also condemned the use of pencils on account of the danger of transmitting disease from one pupil to another. When a pencil is supplied to a pupil, reads the new rule, it shall be the property of that pupil to be kept by him,-and must not be taken up and given out again to another pupil.

You are now attending a congress of the mental giants in mechanical science of all ages. They are addressing you in tongues of iron and steel and in language mute and powerful tell an eloquent story of the world’s progress. The inventive geniuses are the most valuable farm hands we have and they perform an enduring service to mankind. ,We can all help others for a brief period while we live, but it takes a master mind to tower into the realm of science and light a torch of progress that will illuminate the pathway of civilization for future generations. The men who gave us the sickle, the binder, the cotton gin and hundreds of other valuable Inventions work in every field on earth and will continue their labors as long as time. Their bright intellects have conquered death and they will live and serve mankind on and on forever, without money and without price. They have shown us how grand and noble it is to work for others; they have also taught us lessons in economy and efficiency, how to make one hour do the work of two or more; have lengthened our lives, multiplied our opportun4ties and taken toil off the back of humanity. They are the most practical men the world ever produced. Their inventions have stood the acid test of utility and efficiency. Like all useful men, th°v do / ‘ 'eek publicity, yet millions, machines their praises from every harvest field on earth and as many plows turn the soil in mute applause of their marvelous achievements.

as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable physicians, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co. Toledo, 0., coutains no mercury and is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Hall’s Cattarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Testimonials free.

Young Girl’s Terse Comment on Youth Short and Very Much to the Point.
Calls Answered Day or Night. Lady Assistant.
They were young and happy and well dressed. When they climbed on the car, two men rose to give them seats. They had a great deal to talk about, and their conversation was very interesting in tts absolute disregard of things serious and important, and its apparent satisfaction with itself, the Indianapolis News remarks. Very few conversations ate entirely satisfactory to themselves. There may be a lack of understanding or symptoms of being bored on the one side, or limitation of expression or tiresome garrulity on the other side. There was perfect understanding, no limitation of expression and nothing to be bored about in this particular conversation. And it was very easy to understand. Perhaps it would not be fair to tell about everything they said, and it was nobody’s business anyway. It really was what they did not say that was important and Worth telling. The one in the midnight blue suit trimmed in monkey fur was talking about somebody, very properly a young man.

SEEMS ROUGH ON BRAKEMAN.
The bayonet^used at Waterloo a hundred yeare ago were about a foot longer than the modern weapon. Field marshals never retire but remain on the active army lists drawing full pay until they die. A ship building yard in Japan still in operation was established 1900 years ago. An invalid girl, .starting from Kansas City in February, reached Los Angeles on foot last week. She tramped 1,611 miles and regained her health.
Most of the Korean mines which it is said are the object of the Japanese treaty arrangements with China, are in the hands of Americans. The drinking water for the British soldiers in France and Belgium is carried across the English channel from Dover, England. The most troublesome weed in Persia grows a seed pod with horns. These enter the nostrils of grazing animals and frequently kill them by preventing them from eating or drinking.
Belligerent Nations ot Europe Formerly Absolutely Refused to Recognize Neutrals.
An experienced brakeman was held negligent in Williams vs. Kansas City Southern Railway company before the supreme court of Missouri. The testimony showed that on a dark night, with nothing but a red lantern to furnish light, thi% brakeman jumped from the pilot of an engine and ran between the rails to throw a switch before the train reached it. He stumbled over an uneven place in the track and was injured by the train, and the court held him negligent, “although he acted upon a custom of placing trains on sidings by beating them to the switches.”
In ancient times nations at war classed their neighbors as either allies or enemies, writes Herbert W. Bowen. Neutrality as an international relation tvas not recognized. There were no neutral rights and no neutral duties. International law itself existed only in a very rudimentary form.

Every farmer who provides himself as lovely n residence as his means will permit, surrounded with a neat lawn and a well cultivated farm, is a blessing to any community. This country may consider itself lucky indeed to have so many industrious farmers of this stamp.
It was not until after the fall of Rome and until the nations of Europe had become numerous and were asserting and exercising comparatively equal privileges and power that their interests became so conflicting that they perceived the necessity of establishing and supporting a system of law that must be applicable to them in their relations one with another. Grotius (1583-1645), the so-called father of international law, published in 1625 his famous book, “De Jure Belli et Pads/’ which described the laws of war and peace. Of neutrals, whom he called middlemen in war, he had but little to say. Bynkerschock, who was born 25 years after the peace of Westphalia was signed, and who was one of the most distinguished successors of Grotius, was, if not the first, at least among the first, of publicists to define and explain neutrality authoritatively, and to give to it a permanent place in the law of nations.— Case and Comment.

"Oh, well,” she replied, "he’s just as happy as if he had good sense.” Truly, it was a marvelous way of disposing of things like politics and wars, and so reasonable and satisfactory a method to them that it made the rest of us, who were reading the papers and wondering what on earth we were going to do about everything, feel very much ashamed of the young man who wrote the crazy letters and a little foolish and ashamed of ourselves.

There is said to be in Kentucky a tree bearing each year a crop of walnuts and mulberries; and the curious phenomenon is accounted for by the supposition that a mulberry seed fell where a walnut lay in the ground, and the young shoots came up side by side and united their forces into one solid trunk. This supposition seems feasible from the fact that the bark of the tree is on one side that of walnut and on the other that of mulberry.
