Doing pretty well for Indiana In 1910. It all looks well on paper but when we were told la6t summer by the Purdue men that It cost over $12 to raise an acre of wheat and the average yield of Indiana in wheat has only been thirteen bushels to the acre; that is merely a sample of what farmers had better think over between now and the time the Purdue Short Course cornea in February. Indiana produces more corn to the acre than any state of the central west. Indiana 39.3 Illinois 39.1 Ohio 36.5 Iowa 36.3 But Indiana 80.00 Wouldn't that be a lot better. There are men right here in Wayne county with average Wayne county land that can do that. They are the men who follow scientific methods and get the most out of their land and build it up at the same time. Here is another reason why no man within thirty miles of Richmond who is on a farm or who owns one can afford to stay away from the Farmers' Short Course.

A Real American

Hero's to a real American: An Indiana boy was lately taken to Germany and put in a German school. He was lodged with the Herr Professor. The young American was aged not more than eight. He knew as much Gorman aa the Herr Professor knew English but perhaps that Is not an important part of the story. Action begins In this plot when tho young American wanders off after school to make a call on a young lady. At four tho Herr Professor became anxious. At five he commanded his wife to look for the young gentleman. At six ho notified the police. At six one the poiice were searching the city even to the watchman at the gates. At six-thirty the commandant got busy. At seven the Herr Professor started out to look for him. At seven-thirty the Herr Trofessor and the commandant joined in an indignation meeting over Muencherer Lowenbrau. At eight the young American returned and asked if dinner was ready. Then the aforementioned German and American were intermingled and exchanged vocabularies becoming exhausted in both cases. Called for ah explanation none was thought necessary. Corporal punishment was started and other indignities hinted. Overwhelmed by the odds the young American had recourse to a dog-knife, fists and toes. The noblo order of the duel changed into a free for all and the vocabulary of the Herr Professor was extinguished. That night telegrams went over the German empire. Peace was restored. But the young American may In time become a solar myth. All German children are now demoralized and the Empire may be wrecked. Of such is America.

Origin of the Opera. The opera, like nearly everything else interesting In the world of mind, had its origin in ancient Athens. The earliest librettos were by Sophocles and Aeschylus, such as the "Abametanon" and "Antigone," a band of flutes and lyres constituting the orchestra, the dialogues being musically declaimed and the choruses sung to the best mualc of the time. Thus do we have the germ of all later developments in the line of opera. Exchange. "THIS DATE

INAUGURA

Heart to Heart Talks. . By EDWIN A. NYE.

Copyright, 1903, by Edwin A. Nye TWO WOMEN. I would rather be In the shade of a tree With a song and a handful of dalalee Than be the darling of victory Mid the bray of the rabble's praises. I have read these word from an interview with the grand opera singer Mme. Cavalier!: "I have everything that life has to offer. By every rule und standard of the worll 1 should have been happy. But the only happluess 1 have known has been In anticipation in antlcipa tion of the things I expected to bring happiness and did not." As I read the interview I thought of an expression by the wife of my milkman, who happened to be on her husband's wagon the other morning. In the course of a brief conversation she said: "Oh, John and I and the children have been rcry happy. We hare all been quite well, and we enjoy life." And she looked it. Here is Cavalierl, young, in the flush of health, called by some the most beautiful woman in the world, talented, rich and unhappy. And here Is my milkman's wife, also young, healthy, good to look at working hard every day and having few luxuries but happy. Cavalierl well says that according to the rules and standards of her world she ought to be happy. Has it ever occurred to her that possibly the standards of her world may be wrong? In other words, can externals give happiness? There may be , something vitally wrong within Cavalierl's self that has kept her from happiness. What is it? I do not know. I might guess at it But here is the lesson: Sometimes we who are neither talented nor rich nor beautiful nor famous find ourselves wishing we might be possessed of all these things and be supremely happy! It seems we are mistaken. Old Omar discarded all these things to say: A book of verses underneath tho bough, A iug of wine, a loaf of bread and thoo Betide me singing in the wilderness Oh. wilderness were paradise enow. Maybe Cavalierl lacks what the milkman's wife certainly has lovelove for John and the children. Anyway, it is certain that the old book is right wnen it says that "a man's life conslsteth not In the abundance of things that he possesseth." Political Animosities. Political animosities today are seldom carried into private life. In the past Just the opposite was the rule "Coke of Norfolk" once stated that when he was a child his grandfather took him on his knee and said. "Now remember. Tom. as long as you live never trust a Tory." and he used tf add. "I never have. and. by George. 1 never will." G. W E. Russell, too tells of an eccentric maiden lady whom he knew In his youth who. havin? spent her "life in the innermost circles of .aristocratic Whiggery. always re fused to enter a cab until she had ez torted from the driver an assurance that he had never carried cases of In fectlous disease, that he was not a Puseyite and that be was a Whig.London Graphic. A Resourceful Community. "We didn't know what to do about Piute Pete." said the Crimson Gulch citizen. "He was a real good feller but he would be careless about shootln' up the populace."

The next time you have a cough, try this, make it yourself, see if you don't say it is the best cough syrup you ever used. The LOGOS extracts are for sale at all First Class Drug Stores. Red Letter Days. lhfl origin of a "red letter day" has been traced back to the third century. Gregory, bishop of C'aesarea. zealous for the conversion of pagans, found them unwilling to give up their customary recreations at the festivals of their gods, so. taking a leaf out of their book, he instituted festivals in honor of sains and martyrs. This example soon led to the institution of holy days, now corrupt into holidays. In old almanacs all such holy days were set forth in red Ink, the rest being In black; hence the term "red letter day" for any notable occasionOthers say that the origin of the expression Is much more recent and is due to the fact that Saints' day, the Bth of November, the king's birthday arid accession and King Charles' day were similarly marked off in red as holidays for the Bank of England, evidently In the times of the later Stuarts.

KIDNEYS ACT FINE AFTER A FEW DOSES The real treachery and danger in kidney trouble is because the first symptoms are always seen in other parts of the body before anything wrong is noticed with the kidneys themselves. The moment you suspect any kidney, bladder or urinary disorder, or feel a dull, constant Backache or the urine is thick, cloudy or offensive or full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a scalding sensation, begin taking Pape's Diuretic as directed, with the knowledge that there is no medicine, at any price, made anywhere else in the world, which is so harmless or will effect so thorough and prompt a cure. Put an end to kidney trouble while it is only trouble before it develops into Dropsy, Gravel, Diabetes or Bright's Disease. Pape's Diuretic acts directly upon the kidneys, bladder and urinary system; cleanses, heals and regulates these organs, ducts and glands and completes the cure within a few days. Pains in the back, sides or loins, rheumatic twinges, debilitating headache, nervousness, dizziness, bilious stomach, prostatic trouble, sleeplessness. Inflamed or puffy eyelids, weakness, worn-out feeling and many other symptoms caused by clogged, inactive kidneys promptly vanish. Frequent, painful and uncontrollable urination due to weak or irritable bladder is overcome. Your physician, pharmacist, banker or any mercantile agency will vouch for the responsibility of Pape, Thompson & Pape of Cincinnati who prepare Pape's Diuretic 50 cent treatment sold by every druggist in the world.

You can't pay for a better light, because there is none. An oil light has the least effect on the human eye, and the Rayo Lamp is the best oil lamp made, though low In price. You can pay $5, $10, or $20 for some other lamp, and although you get a more costly lamp, you can't get a better light than the white, mellow, diffused, unfiickering light of the lowpriced Rayo.

Perplexing Far East Problems Are Confronting the British

(Special Cable from the International! News Service i BY HERBERT TEMPLE. London Jan 4. Preoccupied , though the English public mind is with the many difficult and Important ! domestic political problems which the ' dying year leaves behind, farsighted statesmen are rather more worried about the problems which the empire j may be called to face in the far east i than about politics at home. It may be stated, without fear of serious contradiction, that the jay which hailed Great Britain's alliance with the new born giant of the far east and conque-' ror of Russia has died out in England. Entering into this alliance prln-' cipally from reasons which never' could lay any claims to unselfishness. J England is beginning to get a rather ; unpleasant feeling of having entered into political partnership with a na- ( lion sun less unselfish and I regret to say, far smarter and energetic, not to say unscrupulous. The advantage which it had hoped would come to British trade from this country's alliance with Japan have not only failed to materialize, but it is even evident to the most casual observer, that the time is not far distant when Japan will practically close her markets to British goods in order to nurse her own baby industries in the most approved American fashion. British industrial machinery has been bought, British industrial experts have been induced to come to Japan; but the machines have been imported only to serve as models, the experts only as teachers, and soon neither will be needed. Then the end will have come. Japan will prefer to fill her own needs without any assistance. Politically the alliance is perhaps even less proMtable. Time and again rumors are heard that Japanese agents are secretly stirring up trouble for Great Britain in India, sowing the dragons' teeth which in time may call for a harvest of blood. But before this may happen, other and equally serious events may force England to cut loose from her eastern ally. With the treachery which seems to be inseparable from Japanese character in all relations, commercial as well as political, Japan is now trying to work up an anti-American feeling, blaming the United States for the growing enmity of China against her which is undeniably the result of her own broken treaty engagements in Manchuria and the unlawful annexation of Corea. By the thousand secret Japanese agents have for years been busy in China, working up conspiracy against the Chinese government and befogging the brains of the Chinese people and the Japanese press Is Indignant because China is beginning to show signs of distrust and enmity against a nation whose secret hope is to make the immensely great, but immensely weak Chinese empire share the fat of Corea, dismembering it little by little and swallowing it piecemeal. No sane person in England believes that the United States, officially or unofficially has tried to influence Cinese sentiment against Japan, while, on the contrary, the feeling is growing here that this country may even have to teach Japan a few lessons in diplomacy, even with the danger of being misunderstood. The crying need of municipal lodging houses for homeless women in London was strikingly shown the other night when a starving woman in miserable rags applied at the Hampstead Fever hospital and asked for a bed, declaring she cared nothing for the risk of fever if she could have once more the sensation of sleeping in a bed under a roof, a thing she had not done for months.

lice to lock them up in the cells In the police station over night. There are many licensed lodging houses in London, but hardly one of them is open to a self respecting poor woman. The women in common lodging houses have all their clothes in common; their life is the most communal existence in England today. The lodging houses licensed by the London county council are not inspected after 10:45 at night, while as regards the lodging houses outside London the twenty by-laws which applied to them are broken every day. In many of the common lodgings outside London there Is no attempt to separate the sexes, though In London the county council has made a very strons effort to do so. In Nottingham there are thirty one houses for men and thirty-one for "doubles" (men and women); but there is not. a place in the town for women only.

A moving mountain is threatening to destroy the Rhymmey valley in Wales and all railroad traffic along the mountain has been stopped. Tho cause of the threatening disaster Is the incessant torrential rain, which has flooded large parts of England and caused enormous damages. Since the early part of last winter a permanent force of hundreds of laborers have been at work trying to stop the progress of the mountain and hundreds of thousands of tons of dirt and rock have been shifted to save the railroad alone. Higher up the mountain side runs the main road through a populous valley, and on this length the Galllgaer district council have a staff pf roadmen constantly engaged in keeping the road clear. The water Bupply of the valley is frequently interrupted as the result of repairs which become necessary to the mains of the Rhymmey and Abbey company, due to their being forced out of joint. Still higher up the mountain side can be traced a large, Assure, breaking away from Ihe rocks. Thus for a distance of about 300 yards there are millions ot tons of earth and rock gradually moving down an extremely steep gradient toward the river several hundred yards below.
