THE OLD TIME. "The king and high priest of the festivals was the autumn Thanksgiving. When the apples were all gathered and the cider was made, and the yellow pumpkins were rolled in from many a hill in billows of gold, and the corn was husked, and the labors of the season were well done and the warm last days of Indian Summer came in dreary and calm and still, with just enough frost to crisp the ground of a morning, but with the warm traces of benignant sunny hours at noon there came on the conynunity a sort of genial repose of spirit a sense of something accomplished, and of a new golden mark made in advance and the deacon began to say to the minister of a Sunday, I suppose it's about time for the Thanksgiving Proclamation." Harriet lieecher Stowe.

Glyndval Richards is the dean of leaders of Welsh Male Choirs and John Thomas occupies the same position in connection with the mixed choirs of the Old Land of Song. This choir has won many notable victories, the greatest among them being the chief prize in the great choral contest at the last National Eisteddfod held in Llangoll-1 wen last year. This makes it the premier choir of Wales for the time being. This choir has sung for a neration so that the blending of vtdces and the balancing of parts is said to be as near perfection as can be attained. The twenty-four voices which

will be heard, in this country consti-;

tutes the cream of this great choir.

Dr. George Rowland of Covington, a veteran in medicine and sanitary science, and one of Indiana's model citizens, called the attention of the state board of health to the existence of unsanitary voting places at election time. He says: "At our recent city election, the voters of one precinct were required to vote in an old blacksmithshop, which was cold, chilly and damp The floor was old and broken and filthy. The air in the room all the day and part of the night was too foul for any one to breathe. To make matters worse, all the members of the election board except one young man, smoked cigars and old" pipes with strong tobacco all day long, filling the room full of smoke, and from appearances they must have spit gallons upon the floor. The young member of the board who did not smoke, was taken sick the next day with a severe headache and fever, which continued for the better part of a week. It seems to me the citizens of Indiana should be permitted and have the privilege of casting their votes in a properly ventilated room that is clean, that is warmed and is not filled with tobacco smoke and the floors not swimming with spit." We heartily agree with Dr. Rowland, and if the advice and direction of such men as Dr. Rowland were sought and followed, Indiana would be a far greater, much richer and better state than she is. We have received information of not less than twelve cases of pneumonia which have come upon members of election boards, a day or two after their services to the people in polling places which were of the kind and character described by Dr. Rowland. Fortunately, all of these victims did not die. but two did. The conditions under which thev work

have an example in cleanliness and propriety set before him by his elders who govern the polls. Not to set this example, is a sin of omission and brings its ill results. Governor Marshall has paraphrased the old saw, "Cleanliness is next to Godliness," by saying "Cleanliness is essential to Godliness." That godliness is essential to our polls cannot be denied, and as godliness cannot be there without cleanliness, it is certainly true that the conditions for ungodliness, namely, corruption and wrong doing were present at the voting place described by Dr. Rowland. Some day the people will become practical, which means they will learn nature's laws and obey them. A practical person is always clean, respectable person. Let us all stand up for clean, smokeless, spitless, orderly and respectable voting places. It may help some to secure greater ability and less graft among our officials.

Chinese Nerve. The most common form of putting a man to death in China is taking off the head by the sword, and the extraordinary nerve of the Chinese is shown in this way more than any other. I have seen two men beheaded, one placed before the other. It took three strokes of the sword to kill the first, and while the operation was going on the second knelt down with his neck outstretched waiting his turn. Thinking: that the process was slow, he turned to the executioner and asked If he were going to be much longer with the first. Then, when the executioner came to him. he stretched hi

Even if election officials do prefer to live in tobacco smoke and walk upon floors slippery with spit, and do prefer to select voting booths that are damp, dirty and unfit in every way. sCill we say they should be prevented from doing so by law. The duty which men owe, to their state and to their families should alone prevent them from committing suicide either by shooting themselves with bullets, or shooting themselves with pneumonia or shooting themselves with any other preventable disease.

"I rise to offer another instance of that wonderful adaptability of the American business man whereby he turns even accident to advantage," recently announced a visiting Briton at a Washington club. "While In an Ohio town not long ago I observed that some mischievous individual had thrown a brick through the window of a tailoring establishment. Several sale placards had been knocked off the goods displayed, whereupon the quick witted proprietor exhibited the following notice: " 'Some one has thrown a brick, knocking our prices down.

Anty Drudge's Idea of Clubs. Organizer of Woman 8 Club "Anty, we want yoa to join our club for the study of sociology, economics and , the general uplifting of womankind.' ; Anty Drudge "All right, my dear. We'll begin by tell- j ing all women about the new way of washing clothes with Fels-Naptha in cold or lukewarm water. It does away with boiling and hard-rubbing, saves work, time, worry and money, and does more to help women ' than all the sociology and economics in creation." ' When women first began to wash I clothes, they soaked them in a stream and beat them with a paddle. A hard job it wasthen to get rid of dirt. Then someone found that fat and lye made a substance which, mixed with hot water and rubbed hard, cleaned things , pretty well. This was soap. Finally, came Fels-Naptha. Fels-Naptha isn't simply good soap;, it's different altogether from soap as you " know it. Fels-Naptha marks as big an advance over soap in its usual meaning, as ordinary soap itself did over the paddle. Ordinary soap calls for much hardrubbing and plenty of boiling water to take away dirt. Some kinds of stains, greases and blood it simply won't remove. But Fels-Naptha cleans without hard-, rubbing and you don't use hot water at all. With Fels-Naptha all you need is cooL or lukewarm water. Think how this cuts all the terror out of washday.
