TEACHERS DEMAND INCREASE 111 PAY Township School Teachers Say They Do Not Make Living Expenses. It Is practically decided among the teachers of the county to adopt resolutions advocating an Increase in the monthly salary of the county school teacher. The increase is an absolute necessity, the teachers say, so they

may meet their living expenses and .properly prepare themselves for their "work. At the present time the minimum 'wage of the county school teacher is about $46 a month. Of this amount i20 is required for board. There are other expenses so that the country school teacher who has passed an examination with an average grade of 85 and professional training of twelve weeks perhaps will have as much as $100 during the eight months of hard work. This is the reason why there are so few applicants this year. Wayne county was short twelve teachers until last week when the July examination was held. County Superintendent Williams has been working for increase in county teachers' pay for some time, and it is now believed a bill will be passed through the legislature which will provide for an increase in the minimum wages of the country teachers. "Blessing to Women" is what one grateful woman calls Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. This is because after suffering for sfx long, weary years with a weakness so prevalent among her sex, she was restored to perfect health by this famous medicine for woman's ills. This has been the experience of thousands of grateful women who have depended upon this tried and true remedy. HOW TO CARRY BAGGAGE. Women With Their Many Pretty Clothes Find Travel Most Difficult. Porters not being such a cheap commodity in this land as abroad, the American woman has a rooted objection to traveling with much hand luggage. If possible she carries nothing but her hand bag or a small satchel and fights shy of an umbrella whenever the skies give her half a chance. This is well enough for a short trip, but is out of the question when one must be gone several nights or must carry enough clothes to do for a week end party. In . buying bags make lightness the , chief essential: Sacrifice looks to light weight and where two bags are equally stylish choose that of fewest ounces. The wicker suit case is a boon to the woman who travels alone. Even here there is a difference of weight. See that the frame is strong, but get the lightest weight bag you can find. Better get a cheaper one and buy often rather than one with trimmings and traps of leather to add to your load. Often there is not time to get a bag checked, - and it must be carried. In such event dispense with frills, especially unnecessary toilet silver. The eensible woman who goes away often for a few days lays in a supply of white celluloid brushes, combs, mirror and other necessaries and keeps them In her suit case. When marked with a monogram in black or dark blue they are far from ugly and have the advantage of being light For checking purposes it is well to keep a leather suit case of largest size. These cases hold a surprising amount and are easily handled without damage to your friend's walls. Where a girl is going to a house party for a few days and must have an evening gown upon her arrival she should have it and its accessories packed in a . pasteboard box, neatly wrapped and provided with wooden handles. This is easily carried with a satchel, and the dress can be packed in a trunk or expressed home on returning. Hats are the chief difficulty in traveling. Most of them are too large to go in a trunk or even in the hat trunk and must be carried. It is not uncommon to see women "toting" huge flowered boxes in addition to bag and umbrella. These are less heavy than clumsy, but it is well to have a box that will just fit the hat. These boxes are generally unwrapped, as the flowered surface of the box shows what they are and does not give the impression of carrying home a wash. ASK YOUR NEIGHBOR Hundreds of Richmond Citizens Can v Jell You All About It. Home endorsement, the public expression of, Richmond people, shov.ld be evidence beyond dispute for every 'Richmond reader. Surely the experience of friends and neighbors, oheerfully given by them, will carry morej weight than the utterances of Strangsrrs residing In faraway places. Read ithe following: Dallas Cassel, 711 S. Eighth St., .Richmond, Ind., says: "About fifteen years ago I suffered from kidney trouble, brought en by heavy lifting. I was weak, subject to dizxy, headaches and I thought I would never be well again. Hearing of Doan's Kidney Pills, I procured a supply at A. G. Luken & Co's Drug Store and soon after beginning their use, I felt like a different man.

The

Scrap Boole Begging His Pardon. One day Beckmann, the comic actor, was induced to take off a well known newspaper editor, Frankcl by name, in one of the characters he was represent ing in Berlin. He performed h i s task so cleverly that at the close the audience broke out into loud calls for Frankel. The journalist brought an action. Beckmann was condemned to go to the bouse of the insulted party and there beg his pardon in the presence of witnesses. At the hour appointed Frankel satin the circle of his family, together with AH, THEN I BEO YOOR PARDOJT." a number of relatives and friends whom be had convened for the occasion, waiting the arrival of the delinquent, lie tarried long, aDd half an hour had passed in weary suspense, when at last the door opened and Beckmann put his head in and asked, "Does Mr. Meir live here?" "Oh. no." answered Franke! ; "he lives next door." "Ah. then I beg your pardon," said the actor and hastily withdrew, having thus acquitted himself of the imposed penance to the great annoyance of Frankel and the intense amusement of the assembled witnesses.

Instead of be ginning the performance at S o'clock, as advertised, they did not arrive in the town until twenty minutes past that hour. "We dressed in the cab. which flew along like a fire engine. Suddenly we espied a building lighted up and a large crowd coming out 'Go back, go back!' shouted my fa ther to the crowd "go back!" as he put his head out of the cab. 'Go back: it is all right-Grossmith is here. We have arrived go back!' Unfortunately it was not our audience, but a congregation leaving a Methodist chapel after service!" i The Missing Chord. When Richard Mansfield was rehearsing the minuet scene in "Beau Brummel," the end of the music left him with one foot suspended iu midair. Poised on the other foot, the actor burst into explosive anger, demanding in no uncertain tone of voice: "Give me a chord to put my foot down on!" The musicians Juaaped to tbelr instruments, and, to a grand blare, Mr. Mansfield planted hi foot on the stage. Hs Needed Tims. Henry Guy Carleton. the playwright, stuttered something fearful. At one time be was a lieutenant in the army and used to give bis orders in a quick, high pitched voice and always ended with a squeak. One day a new drill sergeant was on duty who repeated Carleton's orders in the same high pitched voice and didn't forget the squeak, either. Carleton turned upon him and spluttered: "Be-c-c-ause I-I-I have g-gg-o-t an lm-m-pediment in m-m-y sp-sp-peech. that's no-no r-r-eas-on y-you e-sbonl-uld have one in y-your-ur b-b-brain." Daniel Frohman tells a story about Carleton which is amusing. It seems that Carleton had been writing Mr. Frohman intermittently In regard to a play of his. and as it was before he becuce famous the manager paid but sligS? attention to him. One day he happened to meet Carleton on Broadway and Henry Guy called to him: "I s-say, M-m-mister F-F-Frohman. if y-you have g-g-got an hour t-to sp-p-parc I-I-I'd 1-1-like t-t-to t-t-talk to y-y-you f-f-five m-m-minutes." St, Louis Globe-Democrat. Two Irish Stories. In a book dealing with Irish life George A. Birmingham (ths pea name of an Irish clergy man) tells of an Irish veterinary surgeon who sent in his bill In the following terms: "To coring your honor's mule till it died 10 shillings." Another of Mr. Birmingham's stories Is based on a mistake in pronunciation. An Englishman traveling in Ireland bad some important business in hand and was anxious to know when his letters would be delivered. "What mails are there here?' he asked. "Three, yer honor," replied the Irish waiter, "breakfast, dinner and tea." Indian Ocean Serpents. Among the most venomous serpents In the world are the marine snakes of the Indian ocean. They are the dread of fishermen, and it sometimes happens that vessels are obliged to thread their cables through barrels to prevent the reptiles from swarming on board. Great numbers of them may often be seen floating on the surface of the water as if asleep. They are exceedingly fierce and will commonly attack human beings without provoca-tfoa.

A BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE PAST WEEK BY HENRY CLEWS

NEW YORK, Aug. 5. The United ! West is the tremendous output of States seems to have taken in Moth-; new. securities during the first six er Nature as a special partner, and months of the year. While the disonce mere the country promises to tribution of these has been much

be favored with good harvests. If ; present calculations are realized we 1 shall garner a 700,000,000 bushel wheat crop, a 2,900,000,000 bushel corn crop, and a 1.200,000,000 bushel

oats crop. The yield of potatoes and ; distributed, but August is not generalhay is also likely to be considerably ; ly considered a good investment

ahead of last year. The total value of these five crops is estimated at $3,600,000,000, or about $200,000,000 ahead of last year. In all probability the aggregate of all agricultural wealth produced this year will be about $9,000,000,000, as , against $8,500,000,000, the figures of the Department of Agriculture last year. What this annual production of new wealth means to this country may be estimated when it is remembered that the capital stock of all the railroads in the United States is placed at $8,470,000,000. An increase of $500,000,000 in agricultural products in a single year cannot but be a powerful stimulus to business. Bankers in all portions of the West are agreed that the crop situation is satisfactory, that business is in more promising condition than for several years past and that the business men of the interior have decided to elim-! inate politics from their calculations. This is a practical expression of in-: creased confidence based upon positively improved intrinsic conditions. The cotton crop seems likely to fall below early expectations, but the yield will, nevertheless, be large, and planters are securing prices which afford good profits. The South enjoyed exceptional prosperity last year and is not likely to fall behind seriously during the next twelve months. August is usually a month of deterioration, so a moderate falling off in condition need cause no surprise in the final reports. The stock market has been strangely backward in reflecting the betterment of conditions in the interior. This must be largely attributed to the absence of genuine leadership. The stock market is literally taking care of. itself, and stagnation was increased by the fact that the vacation season is now at its height. Wall Street is not governed alone by crops and business, as is the case in the interior. Monetary conditions are an important influence. So, too, are international affairs. The money marset renects increasing Dusiness activ-1 ity. Commercial paper is more plen- i tiful. Time money is hardening and ! the increased demand for funds is I being felt m all directions Accord-, mg to the last statement of the na- l tional banks throughout the country j loans are more than $300,000,000 in ! excess of a year ago. Canada has begun to draw her balances from this center. Western and Southern demands will shortly become more pressing, and there has been some expectation that Europe, owing to strained conditions there, would depend upon New York for gold in settlement of its obligations to South America. Easier conditions, however, are beginning to prevail in Europe. Ger-! many has been paying a portion of her American loans, indicating partial relief of strain in that quarter, and in both Paris and London cheaper and more abundant money is reported. Among the reasons why New York has been less sanguine than the Amusements THEATRICAL CALENDAR At The Murray. Lewis-Oliver Stock company, indefinite. "The Young Wife." "The Young Wife" is to be presented at the Murray theater tonight by the Lewis & Oliver Players. "The Young Wife," previous to her marriage was a clever violinist. She had promised to forsake the concert stage after her marriage, but now wanted to play once more for a charitable purpose. The husband thought she desired to leave him for good, and in a fit of rage destroys her violin. Being ashamed of his actions he sends her a new violin, being compelled to steal the money to purchase same. She returns home, and with the proceeds from the concert tour makes good the money that he stole. A beautiful story which teaches a good lesson is embod ied in this play. The Arcade. The Arcade today began the exhibi tion of what is known as a "period play" in the motion picture theaters, called "The Orleans Coach," and which is a story of an episode in the life of old France. The plot of the play concerns itself with a case of mistaken identity, is exciting and interesting, and will hold MAPL-FLAKE is

more successful than might have been expected, nevertheless the local market is somewhat congested by such excessive offerings of high-grade securities. In time, they will doubtless be

In July the output of new securities was only about J34.000.000, as against f 130,000,000 a year ago. , This is an unusually small output, and prover the inability of the mar- ; ket to take any further new issues ' ' at this time. Wall Street is also somewhat concerned about the future of the rail- j roads, arising from the persistent demands of labor. Should the engineers obtain concessions in the recent arbitration case, it is expected corresponding demands will follow from other classes of railroad labor. The railroads have already raised wages i very liberally during the past two ! years, and in consequence have suffered severely in net earnings. Further advances could be endured poSsibly by a few of the more prosperous com-1 panics. For the weak railroads, how ever, or those not enjoying an abundance of traffic, any further advance t in wages would be a serious master; ' the theory of uniform wages in spite of varying conditions on different i systems often working injuriously and ' unjustly to those less favorably situated. In the steel trade business continues active. The last quarterly report of the United States Steel Corporation was fairly encouraging. Steel prices are constantly advancing in all directions, and the results of the next quarter should show a much more liberal profit. Other lines of industry have given evidence of prosperity; notably the great electrical concerns. The textile industries have been much embarrassed by labor troubles, and dividends have been temporarily impaired. The outlook, however, is for less disturbance in these quarters, especially as fabrics are finding a j good market at better prices. j So far as politics are concerned, it ; can safely be said that from now on they will be a less and less disturbing factor. The politicians are learning that derangement of business is apt to injure their own political fortunes. The West has turned its back upon politics most emphatically, and the East is not likely to be slow in following this wholesome example, For tMa re jf for nQ oth ,t ,g that taHff question to ' Ja 0 . be handled cautionsly. Whichever cautionsly. party succeeds in the next election, no radical changes need be anticipated, although some reductions will inevitably be made in excessive rates, as a concession to public opinion. As in previous advices, we reiterate that the outlook is for a better and more active market. Delay has been chiefly dut to lack of leadership, to uncertainties regarding the crops and to Political agitation. The two latter uncertainties are being gradually eliminated. As the vacations draw to a close absentees will return invigorated and with optimistic views, the results of which cannot but have a favorable effect upon the security markets. the attention of the patrons of the theater this week. The Arcade is fortunate in securing this picture drama and glad to be able to show it to the local public. NOTICE. Persons desiring street oiled, notify C. A.

Before beginning to embroider the edges of towels outline the edge of the scallops with a small stitch done on the sewing machine. The buttonholing covers the stitching perfectly and gives a very firm edge that is unobtainable in any other way. When padding scalloped edges for toweling use tiny rolls of raw cotton Instead of the usual darning cotton. This is sewed in place with fine thread. It makes a very satisfactory and thick padding. How to Make Steel Like Electroplate. Take an old India rubber ball and cut it into two. Dip one part in paraffin, then in powdered bath brick. Rub the steel well with this, then polish with the other bit of rubber slightly dusted with the powdered bath brick. The result is a brilliant polish resembling electroplate.

There are two ways of opening the campaign against the dandelions this summer. One is to cut them out by hand, and the other and more modern method is to spray the weeds with copperas, an iron sulphate, says SubI 1 ..uruuu u,e' you cut the plants out by hand It is necessary to rui wen neiow iue crown with a long, sharp knife. It la ! claimed by weed experts that the , weeds do not propagate from the roots ; as much as from the crown. To use the iron sulphate or copperas dissolve one and one-fourth pounds of salt to a gallon of water and apply to the lawn with a spray pump. Cover the lawn thoroughly. There will be no injury to the grass. In a couple of weeks apply the spray again and repeat the operation in a fortnight after that. The grass appears black after treatment, but after being cut once assumes a really richer shade of green than formerly. How to Make a Dustless Duster. A number of advertised "dust downs," "dustless sweepers," "no dusts." are on the market, using as an active principle the combination of sand or wood fiber and oils. Sand or fiber acts more or less as a hindrance in the sweeping of heavy carpets or rugs, but this sand is the medium for carrying the oil, hence must be there if the oil is there. Oil Is really the "no dust." But, with much less expense and with no chance of sand or sawdust remaining in the texture or crevices of flooring, paper can be torn into bits, moistened by wringing out of water and sprinkled on carpefc or rug. Just sufficient moisture remains to hold the dust on the paper, while in no way is there enough moisture to dull or fade the colors of the rug. This paper with its burden of dust is easily burned.

DISHWASHING

How to Make Usually Unpleasant Task Agrooable. Dish washing, which Is probably the most disliked of all household tasks, may be made a very pleasant bit of work if the proper preparation is made. First there should be a generous supply of towels, and It will be found best never to use a dish towel more than once without laundering. There should be more than one kind of wiping cloths used, according to the nature of the dishes. Soft glass toweling should be used for the gla4 and linen crash for the other pieces. For washing more variety is required. There should be a mop for nee on deep articles, a soft cloth for fine ware, a heavy one for ordinary dishes and a wire dishcloth for iron ware or cooking utensils. Of course there should be a plentiful supply of hot water, good soap, ammonia or borax, if the water is hard, and two pans, one for the washing and the other for rinsing, with a wire tray or basket to drain. For the washing fill the pan half full of pleasantly warm water, omlttin soap for the glasses and addmg Instead a little borax or ammonia, making sure that glasses containing milk have been thoroughly rinsed bofore putting luto hot water, as it will be impossible to get'them clear otherwise. Wipe the glasses without letting them drain, as draining is apt to make streaks. Cut glass needs a soft but firm brush, as it cannot be kept clean with ordinary washing. Silver will not need rubbing so often If a little borax is added to the water in which it Is washed, and It should not stand to drain, but be wiped as soon as taken from the water. Cooking dishes which have been filled with cold water as soon as emptied will be found easy to wash. If food has been let burn in a utensil, if filled with water to which a little lye or considerable soda has been added, yon will find most of the blackness has vanished. When the dishes have been washed then put all the cloths through a wash and hang to dry In the air where the sunlight may find and sweeten them, as it is not possible to keep dishcloths wholesome unless so treated. And if you valne the health and comfort of your family yon will observe this Injunction about the dishcloths, as It is quite possible for typhoid and other germs to lurk in dishcloths which are carelessly laid aside for next occasion.
