AN APPEAL TO THE DREAM GOD. Dear Little dream god From the world of mist, Whose fair Hps The sparkling dewdrop kissed. Take me away with you, - To lands unseen; Make me for one day A dream god's queen. Lull me to sleep With zephyrs fanned. Make me forget This workaday land. Give me the food The fairies eat, Ambrosial drinks, And honey sweet. ' And when I've imbibed This fairy lore, Then I'll come back To earth once more. Jaunita II. Ford. RECEPTIONS FEATURE TODAY.

The approaching convention of the State Federation, notices of which were issued Saturday, divides the interest in Indiana just at present with the various opening days, which occur late in September or early In October. Each federated club of 100 members or less is privileged to send two delegates to the anual convention, one of these being the president. Clubs of more than ten members are entitled to one delegate for each additional fifty members. There are at present 250 clubs affiliated with the federation representing a total membership of more than 10,000 women. The convention goes to Indianapolis at the invitation of the Seventh District Federation, which consists of twenty-seven of the Indianapolis clubs. An interesting feature of the convention will be the presentation of a gavel to the district chairman, who has secured the largest number of clubs for the Indiana Federation since the last annual convention. One of the most important matters of business to be brought before the convention this year is the report of the loan scholarship fund committee, composed' of Mrs. Edwin A. Knapp, of Winona Lake, Mrs. O. P. Kinsey, of Valparaiso, Mrs. Charles R. Dryer, of Terre Haute, and Miss Georgia Mitchussen of Bedford. This work is just being inaugurated in Indiana and all the

clubs in the federation have been appealed to for contributions. It is understood that the committee will recommend a low rate of interest, although details of the management of the fund will be determined by the convention. Another matter of importance to be considered is the question of establishing a parent teacher club department. Under the Department of Education there is now a parent teacher club committee, which has been active during the'last year in establishing these clubs in connection with the schools of the state, but it is thought that since the work of the Indiana Federation centers so largely around the child and since the Parent Teacher Club is of such great and growing Importance In every community where it exists', it may be deemed the parent teacher club department. Among the well known speakers who are to address the convention are Miss Helen Varick Bcswell of New York, chairman of the industrial and social committee of the General Federation of Women's Clubs; Mrs. Frances Squire Potter of Chicago, chairman of the literature committee of the General Federation: Miss Zena Gale, chairman of the civics committee of the Wisconsin State Federation, Miss Kate Gordon, of New Orleans, vice president of the National American Woman suffrage Association and William A. Wirt, superintendent of public schools at Gary, Ind.

Last Monday afternoon, Mrs. Gray, while up town, was much surprised to meet the colored woman who does her washing. "Why, Mrs. Johnson! said Mrs. Gray, "I thought this was your busy day." "Did use ter be," came the reply, "but Ah uses Hewitt's Easy Task soap now an gits all done 'fore dinner. It sure does the business in short order." It does "do the business" and it only costs a nickel. Her Stipulation. The pale young man with sheepish eyes glanced timorously at his fair companion. They had sat together in the conservatory for fully five minutes and had hardly exchanged a word. At last, in desperation, he dived his hand into his breast pocket and brought out his cigarette case. "Do you mind. Miss Smilax, if I smoke?" he asked. "Not in the least" replied the yoong lady sweetly, "if you don't think It will make you sick!" Close Relations. "Yon advise that man's constituents to stand by him?" "Yep," replied Farmer CorntosseL "I advise 'em to stand by close lenough to watch everything he does." Washington Star. His Inheritance.

THE POOR PEDESTRIAN HAS A HARD TIME

Between Automobiles, Motorcycles and Just Mere Bicy cles, He Takes His Life in His Hands in Venturing on the Streets.

BY ESTHER GRIFFEN WHITE. The automobile skids gayly down the street, the while pedestrians dodge and sidestep. The lolling occupants gaze haughtily at the lowly populace. Hitherto mild and harmless persons who gossip with their neighbors over

the back fence and gracefully murder tot Lincoln, derided, excrated, scorned? the King's English, scarce deign tojWas not Ibsen long a social outcast? wag an eyelid in the direction of the I Wa.s not George Eliot cast into outdowntrodden ones on foot. And cut er darkness? Were not many of the their relatives dead. great reformers Luther, Fox, WesIs there not a speed ordinance? I Jev Knox nailed to the cross of public And yet our noble protectors of the , objurgation. f

law daily behold motor-cars running like mad up and down the principal thoroughfares of the town. Corners are turned with hair-breadth escapes without the tooting of a horn. Elderly people hesitate to cross streets. And indeed it is as much as the life is worth. It is a subject that agitates the pub lic of every considerable community. Lverybody recognizes its existence and the importance of putting on the legal brakes. But what cares the merry automobilist? What's a dog or two in the day's work? Or even a cow? Its uncomfortable to kill a child, say, but their parents ought to keep 'em off the streets. Everybody understands about the automobile. They read about it in the papers. It's the motorcycle and the bicycle that need some attention. The riders are as regardless of the pedestrian as the drivers of automobiles. Not long since an elderly woman started to cross the street just as a bicycle going at a great rate of speed turned the corner. She was knocked down, her head violently hitting the curb, with a resultant injury from which she has not yet recovered. No bell was rung. It was dusk. She didn't see the bicycle approaching from the other street. The other day a woman crossing an alley barely escaped a bicycle which without ringing the bell, turned into the alley although the woman had "the right of way." "Why didn't you ring your bell?" she asked indignantly. "Yah ahah!" sneeringly yelped the boy as he sped down the alley. The fact tjjat the pedestrian has the first consideration is recognized the world over in civilized communities. Pedestrians are often careless, to be sure, and will get directly in the way of a vehicle of whatever character at a time when the drivers of the latter think thay are not interfering with those on foot. But this is not often. And a halt should certainly be called not only on reckless drivers of automobiles, but the equally regardless users of motorcycles and bicycles. "The world is full of little people who criticise and judge and laugh and misunderstand the few real intelligences," says David Graham Phillips in "The Grain of Dust." Originality is fatal. Step out of the beaten path ever so little veer slightly from the straight rule of custom, dare to live your own life in your own way, presume to cast any reflection upon that great majority which is said, without any basis in reason, to always be right that majority which Ibsen says is always wrong by varying from its set conventions do this and you have the whole pack at your heels, snarling, snapping, sneering. Who cannot on the moment bring to vizualization some remarkable personality, one of those "real intelligences" Phillips refers to, some great-vis-ioned entity to whom clothes are a mere incident and social tradition a cobwebby texture to be ignored or brushed aside in the consideration of the big, vital things who cannot name one of these individualities, and in the same breath, name his long line of jeering detractors those of the microscopic souls, of the smug egotism, of the heaven-born knowledge

IS

that they are the sons of heaven, that that the earth was created for them and that everyone not cut out of the same pattern is fit only for outer darkness and more or less polite excreation. Some of the greatest names in history rank thus. Was this not the lot

At whom longer was the finger of scorn pointed than at Thoreau. who elected to live out the tenets of his philosophy? Who was gazed upon by the contemptuously curious and laughed at more than Hawthorne? Who was run through the mill of derision with greater frequency than Walt Whitman? Oh, the "terrible little people," as they are denominated by May Sinclair in her recent novel. It is these terrible little people who seek out and subject to perhaps unconscious persecution, who harry and torment those lesser luminaries to be found in every community. Let any man or woman wear his hair a shade differently from the accepted mode, let either affect any idiosyncracy of dress, let any speak the truth in his mind, let him worship at some other shrine than that at which the uncou majority pro&trates itself, this is enough to cause him the most refined torture, through the attitude of contemptuous hostility adopted toward him by his alleged neighbors. The truth is that the majority Is made up of Pharisees. They pass by on the other side. They stand afar and thank God that they are not as other men. They cast the first stone. They permit no existence not molded in the same form as themselves. Civilization has advanced but little. According to a certain modern philosopher, it does not advance at all merely oscillates. The so-called reforms are merely the bringing back to the normal of an institution or law that has been abused. ' This manifestation of the primal in the human animal this desire to torment and harry and torture the spiritually elect is the blind alley of supposed progress that leads to nothingness. Toleration is the rarest of virtues. Magnesia and Grease Spots. - Magnesia will take grease spots out of carpets and rugs. Get a block of it from the drug store for 0 cents. Scrape it with a knife into fine powder and lay this on the grease spot, covering it entirely. Rub it in a little and let It stand overnight.

CHAUTAUQUA TOT Will Be Discussed at a Meeting Today. The program committee of the 1911 Chautauqua will meet at four o'clock this afternoon in the rooms of the Commercial Club for their first session to discuss the plans for the bis event next year. Most of the time will be taken up with a general talk on thespecial features for the program for next year. Among the matters to be settled is the question of who ia to rep resent the committee at the meeting of the Chautauqua alliance in Chicago this winter. This Is the time when most of the talent is secured and', therefore the importance of having a.; well posted local representative on, "the job" is obvious. It is reported that many citizens are in favor of having the Richmond eityj band furnish the regular band music! at the next Chautauqua. This would bai supplemented by special orchestras; from day to day and would possi-j bly prove more satisfactory than the' arrangement this year of having a sin-! gle organisation try to furnish both.? band and orchestra music. Many per! formers who have never appeared here are being sought for by local peopleJ and some who have been here in the? past are also wanted but the commit-' tee will have to wait some time before' making any decision.
