iTROUBLEJITH COBII Farmers Finding it Hard to Make it Grow.

"Reports from over Wayne county, and in fact from all over this section of the country are that farmers are experiencing a great deal of difficulty in raising their corn this season. Some

farmers, according to the reports, ihave been obliged to plant their corn !two or three times and it has required considerable of their time to watch the growth of the small stalks. Two reasons are given for this. Corn planters say that the cold nights '(have dwarfed the stalks and the dry 'weather can also be blamed for the existing conditions. It is said that more acres of ground were planted in 'corn this year than for a number of previous seasons. Each age of our lives has its joys. Old people should be happy, and they will be if Chamberlain's Tablets are taken to strengthen the digestion and keep the bowels regular. These tablets are mild and gentle in their acion and especially suitable for people of middle age and older. For sale by all dealers.

THE LOCAL HUMANE SOCIETY

It Still Exists and Has Several Hundred Dollars to Its Credit. Why Not Get Together and Resume Activities? Mr. R. H. Murray.

SIGHTED AN ELK.

One Party Lost the Game, While the . Other Side Won the Match. Sometimes the autumn is very hot In the Rockies hot. still, glittering weather, with the tbermometer at 90 or more. Three hunters on such a blazing autumn day sat on the hotel porch of a amall mountain town. Their shirts were open at the throat, and they were fanning themselves with their big felt bats. But suddenly one of them exclaimed: "Look, boys, look!" They looked where the man pointed, and a wonderful sight met their eyes. On a peak at the summit of the high trail. 3.000 feet above their beads, stood a superb elk. There he stood like a statue, bis antlers beautifully outlined against the bright blue sky. "Bucks are scarce enough, but an lkP gasped the three hunters, and in

"AH KLK 1" GASPED THE HUNTERS. a Jiffy, forgetting the heat, they were tearing in the redbot sun up the steep trail with their rifles on their shoulders. Up and up they climbed. The ther mometer In the sun was about 120.

Finally as their red. dripping and breathless leader peered on hands and knees across a log at the top of the trail he saw a man calmly chewing

the stem of an unligbted cigar.

"Did you did you see the elk?" panted the leader. The other, with a laugh, pointed with bis cignr to where a little group of campers were unstrapping a pair of old antlers from the head of a mule. "Pardon me, old man," he said, "but we've Just run out of matches, and. I the day being too hot for a trip down j below, we thought we might perhaps 'decoy a few of you fellows up here to help us out." Pulling Teeth In Scotland. An old Scotchwoman journeyed to London to visit her sou. She was taken, with a jumping toothache and upon the advice of her son visited a dentist, who soon had the offending molar, flying in the air. With a sigh of relief the old lady climbed out of the chair and asked: .... "How mooch?" "Ten shillings, mam. replied the dentist. "Tin shillings, is it. ye robber?" screamed the woman. "Why. I'll ba' ye know, Sandy MacPhersou 'ud haul me all a boot the smithy for saxpence."

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. References to various matters concerning "our dumb animals" have been made here recently. Much interest is being taken in their welfare locally. So why not reanimate the Humane Society. Richmond had a very successful one, with Mr. J. E. Iliff as its president, for many years. There is now to its credit in the Dickinson Trust Company several hundred dollars. Certainly an organization of this character is needed. Not only to look after the well being of the lower animals but some of the higher. For it is also a function of humane societies to gfve attention to neglected and abused children. And certainly there is room for this field of activity in this city. More children are spoiled in the making than by what they inherit. You only have to read in the magazines and the public prints what can be done with either promising or unpromising incunabula in the "vegetable kingdom." The exploits of Burbank, the California artist-wizard' are known to everyone. You yourself can, in your own garden, experiment with the development

of plants and through your own unscientific efforts make or mar some ordinary garden flower. The writer knows of a woman who

had a wonderful long row of wood anenomes along her garden fence the blossoms being twice as large as their forest prototype, and grown to this size through the careful cultivation of the owner of the garden. All you have to do is to apply the same methods with children. Children need careful cultivation and will develop unbelievingly in a congenial atmosphere. . Unfavorable inherited traits can be minimized if not almost eradicated through proper training. On the other hand they can be developed and permitted to dominate by neglect and abuse. Children are as susceptible to their environment as the earth the sun. They are as imitative as monkeys. They follow the lead of their elders far more than the latter ever observe or suspect. They copy their attitudes, tones of voice, manner of speech, grammar, personal idiosyncracies. They adopt the air of their parents toward other people and the public. At a certain stage parents assume the proportions of a god to the child. And it is at this period that the latter is either ruined or pointed the way to a happy state of gradual development into well rounded Individuality. When you consider the manner in

which children are allowed to run to t

waste, are beaten and kicked and snarled into a state of stubborn rebellion, or indulged into selfish degeneracy, it is a matter of wonder that as many of them reach maturity in as

normal a state as they do. J

In many states Humane Societies are protecting children through police and humanitarian measures and to their activities has been due largely the sentiment that is gradually maturing toward giving the child a fair chance at life. To return to the local Bociety, it is interesting to know that, In its fifteen

years of existence It accomplisned much in the line of its usefulness. Mr. J. E. Iliff was its president during Its entire time of existence and is yet since the Society is an incorporated body, although it has not met for several years and other well known people were prominent in its councils Mrs. Frank Clark, Dr. T. Henry Davis, Mr. John Robbins, Rev. I. M. Hughes, Dr. L. C. Hoover. One of its moving spirits was Rev. Father McMullen, for an extended period in charge of St. Mary's Catholic

church, Father McMullen being of the widest humanitarian sympathies and conspicuous throughout the state for his work in behalf of dumb animals. Through this column, and editorially,

dog fountains have been referred to as a necessity, the order for their muzzling having brought this into the minds of many persons who know that many dogs, whose owners consciously or unconsciously neglect to furnish them water, will suffer through an inability to get it. In an extended mention of this subject, made by this column about a month since, a history of the movement for dog fountains and Its operations in other cities, was given, and the recommendation that we have fountains for. dogs in Richmond met with much favorable comment from the public. Why cannot the Humane Society get together and discuss the feasibility of using a part of its fund now accumulating at interest in the Dickinson Trust for the installation of these fountains round town, or request the city council to provide drinking places for dogs. The ordinary public fountains which

can be utilized for horses are too high

for the use of dogs. Many dogs are, without doubt,

thought to be "mad" when they are

only thirsty.

You know how dry your own tongue

gets and what an inclination you have to run it over your lips when you are thirsty. Dogs do the same way. - Then some-one howls "mad dog" and the' poor beast is chased up and down alleys by excited citizens, egged on by other inflammable persons safely esconsced on fences or hanging out of windows until he runs afoul a valiant policeman and gets a crack or a bullet in the head. There is no scare like the "mad dog" scare. People on other subjects perfectly normal and seemingly sane will fly right off the bat at the cry of "mad dog." Its like saying "Roosevelt!" to a con-

I firmed Taftlte.

They immediately begin to jump up and down and froth at the mouth until a real for sure mad dog isn't a circumstance in comparison. Its curious the obesslons that get their strangle clutch on people or individuals. And among these not the least is the cry "mad dog!" It ranks all others unless it is Colonel Harvey's on a certain celebrated ex-preBident. Harvey's obession is proving something of a boomerang, however, since

it Is reacting in that very advertise

ment which Harvey shrieks is one of

his famous confrere's most hated desires.

Just at this point in the writing of

the foregoing occurred an extraordinary circumstance.

A gentleman, who proved to be Mr.

R. H. Murray, Field Secretary of the

American Humane Association, walk

This is commended to our psychic

friends for consideration.

This school will not only give technical instruction in the scientific and humane care of the lower animals, but will have courses in many different phases of social activity in the training of probation officers for the work of juvenile courts, for one thing, the object of the institution to be to prepare trained experts for whom there is an increasing demand far in excess of the supply thus putting the work of the American Humane Association on an authoritative basis of operation. The. activities of this organization are more direct and efficacious than some of those in continental countries, one or two of which are notoriously hampered by "red tape," of which the American is happily free, and the inauguration of such a school is, therefore, auspicious.

V Youthful Pangs of Hunger. There's . a youngster in Boston whose appetite is a constant source of amazement to his family and relatives. On one occasion this lad was taken to spend the day with an uncle in the suburbs. At dinner be ate so much that finally It became actually necessary to forbid bini to eat? any more. Later, when the family were taking their ease on the porch, the irrepressible William pulled something from his pocket and began gnawing it. "What have you there?" demanded his father. "Only a dog biscuit," came in apologetic tone from Willie. "Where did yon get It?" " I knew I'd be hungry before I got home." explained the lad. "so I ' took It away from Fido." Lippincotfa.
