When she got back Margery said: "You'll never know how much you want your mother or father or brother until you are away from them." Is it not boif The world ia so 'much bigger and Stronger than we are, and unless somebody is mother or father or brother to us it will break us. Therefore the unerring instinct of all humans the homing instinct. The Margery Bells, lured into the paths of dalliance, chase the winged butterfly of pleasure, listen to the patter of soft fountains and watch the dryads dance until until the clouds lower and the hardness of the world appears and the feet are tired and the heart is sore And then? like little children who have forgotten all but the glinting sunshine and the pretty flowers, and who wander far afield until evening conies and all seems naught but strangeness, and who sit down and cry for home So we. When the mirage of the faroff feathery palm tree and sweet water rises In empty air, when the rivers of gladness lose their runnels in life's desert -places, then we see the mocking folly and sit down and long or cry for home. We all tribes of the wandering feet we all are Margery Bells. Home. Like Noah's dove, we find no place to rvst our feet, and so with tired wing we come back to the ark. We may wander far from that one little corner of God's creation that we call home, but always in concentric circles, and always we come back to It. To ns It is the center of the world. "An exile from home splendor dazales in Tain." Misfortune? God pity him to whom It come with no home or hearts to share it! And sickness? Poor, iudeed. is he ' who is without so much as the poor animal who seeks his hole for shelter and a place to nurse his wounds. And Joy and pleasure? What are they all worth If there be no place nor hearts where they may be divided. Home, sweet home. t charm from the skies seems to hallow it there Which, sousrht through the world, is ne'er met with elsewhere. The Man and the Baa. "That get-rieh-quick man is as busy as a bee." "Yes," replied Mr. Cumrox. "He's on of those busy bees who can't manage to gather honey without Incidentally stinging somebody." Washington 8tar. . NflTICE.

American Fashions.
The arbiters of fashion, whoever compose that small and select group, must be possessed of cynical humour of the rarest quality. The big bulk of American people, judging from the costumes to be seen on the streets of every city and town in the country, fancy the extreme in dress and those who dictate the fashions humor this weakness in a manner so grotesque that one often wonders if these makers of styles do not dress their fellow countrymen to satisfy an abnormal craving for amusement. Take the average American young man. Just a few years back Fashion decreed that he should wear trousers resembling tights of a chorus girl, coats that struck him about thiee inches above the waist line, and shoes as pointed as a darning needle Before Young America had grown accustomed to this costume, the news was broken to him that he must wear trousers resembling the balloon Jib of a racing yacht and coats that nearly reached his knees. Today the skin tight trousers are in fashion again, but they have been lopped off around the ankles and cuffs attached to them. In oddities of dress the American girl equals if she does not surpass her brothers. She has made our European friends gasp with her hoop skirts, which in turn she discarded for close fitting skirts and waists possessing sleeves the size of foundry boilers. In the wake of this oddity came the peekaboo waist, the harem skirt, the hobble skirt and other freaks of fashion too numerous to mention. As far as women's fashions are concerned some astonished individuals, who have been moved by curiosity to ascertain where my lady's styles originate, inform us that for the most part they are stolen from the French stage and from those who compose the upper strata of the Parisian underworld. However, this secret, apparently, is not generally known to the average American woman. She fondly imagines she is dressed in accordance to the fashions created by the New York smart set. New York's "Four Hundred" has been guilty of many things, but to blame them for some of the recent styles abroad in the land would be an undeserved and brutal injustice. One often hears dealers In garments for men and women blamed for fashion's atrocities. The dealers retort that the American people demand them and they must meet the demand or go Into some other line of business.
Decorate Next Week.
Next week will be a busy one for Richmond. Two r.tate conventions, the Indiana County Commissioners and the State Federation of Labor, and a reunion of the Sixty-Ninth Indiana regiment, will be held here at that time. Inasmuch as these meetings will bring hundreds of people to Richmond from all over the state the citizens should make an especial effort to have the city make a good impression on its visitors. City officials and oflScers of civic organizations have made the excellent suggestion that every householder should appropriately decorate his home next week. It requires little effort on any one's part and improves the appearance of the city a thousandfold.
A Suggestion to "Doc
Mayor Zimmerman Monday night at council meeting indulged in another one of his cheap tirades against the press of this city. These outbursts are- useless; thy do the newspapers no harm and waste time in in the transaction of the city's business. Our domineering and quite egotistical executive could keep his name out of the newspapers to a considerable extent if he could cure himself of the habit of giving voice to snap-judgments on his part. When a typical Zlmmermanesque statement appears In cold, blunt type it apparently appears as absurd to the mayor as to the general public. This angers him and he issues a somewhat heated statement to the effect the press ir untruthful and has misquoted him. A little more time devoted to unraveling the city's tangled finances and a little more decisive action in dealing with the street car question on the mayor's part, and much less tongue-wagging, will be acceptable to the citizens of Richmond.
How to Select the Wayne county farmers will be interested in the appended article, which was awarded first premium by the Indiana farmer, and details the best method of selecting seed corn. There is but one best way to select seed ears. We would not think of buying an animal to place in our pure bred herd without looking up its pedi gree, seeing the sire ana dam, when poesible or at least satisfying ourselves as to its individuality and the merit of its ancestry. Likewise the way to select seed ears Is to go out into the field and choose them on the stalk. Ir. this way the strength of the stalk may be considered, also the height of ear and its early maturing qualities. The way we have selected our seed for many years is to take a sack or basket and go down each row picking out the ears from the stalks that are unusually vigorous and show the desired characteristics. Some of the ears will be found with the husks turning brown, giving evidence of their early maturing qualities, while other ears growing beside them, which have been cared for In the same manner will be found to be very immature. Maturity should never be sacrificed for size of ear. What we should strive for is the largest possible ear that will mature in our respective localities and such ears can only be selected by going through the field and selecting them from the stalk before harvesting. Judging The Stalk and Ear. The stalks from which the seed ears are taken should be of medium size, ,

strong at the base, tapering gradually to the tassel, standing erect, strong root development and be free from smut or insect attack. It should also have a large leaf development as the leaf is the laboratory of the plant. Only ears that are well silked and that are thoroughly covered with the husk from butt to tip should be selected. The ears should be at a convenient height of 4 to 5 feet on the stalk, and should be" attached to the stalk by a shank medium in length and strength. When matured the ear should break over and point downward. These ears shed the rain and thus preserve the grain while those that stand upright or nearly so catch the rain which trickles down into the grain and causes it to rot. As to the number of rows and grains on the ears, they will vary with tue variety, but in most standard varieties they run rrom 16 to 20 rows. They should run straight from butt to tip, all those containing wavy or mixed rows should be discarded. Both tips and butt of the ears should be covered with corn. Do not select ears that are unusually large at the butt. The cob should be perfectly straight and uni form in circumference in the rtprfect : e&r In selecting the ears it is important that more is involved than merely the ear. The kernels should be studied. They should be medium long, and wedge shaped, symmetrical, well formed, close together where they are ioind to the coh. rnmnart and attrnc. tlve ln appearance. E. E. W.

Their position is not perfectly constant, there being a counter clock elliptical movement of some tbirty feet and a counter clock circular movement of some twenty-six feet in diameter ln a period of 428 days al the extreme axis of the earth. This change, however, is so slight as nol to be reckoned In practical calculations. Peary and Amundsen made no guesses, but took several observations from various standpoints to determine conclusively that they had reached the poles. Christian Herald. Raising His Bluff.

A MENACE TO OIL SHIPS. The Deadly Vapor That Stay After the Petroleum Is Gone. The explosion of vessels carrying petroleum frequently occurs, and this is generally caused not by the cargoes of oil which they contain, but by the inflammable vapor which ia left behind after the huge tanks of the ships have been emptied. It is difficult to remove all the oil
that miner- to the si los of the tank, and the evaporation f the oil ulmj left in them after they have been! 1 limped out lakes i:;ne with great; rapidity. Moreover. Uie vapor tUu-! formed mingles readily with t!.- ;.lr and is capable of rendering more thn; 2,000 times its own volume if the fo;-l mer inflammable. A spark may thus cause a fearrui explosion in the uoia of a ship that is apparently empty A film of petroleum spreading over the surface of the water has leeii 1 known to produce enough of this ! tile and dangerous vapor to cause a ! conflagration, by which a numlxr of. ships lying in a harbor have befi sud j denly enwrapped in roaring flames as, if by a stroke of magic t In some parts of the world, ns at; Baku, the center of the Russian petrx leum trade, u film of oil continually covers the water for a considers Mi distance from shore, and warnings the danger there have more than on. i been given.

Whatever we wish to buy, we ought first to consider not only if the thing be fit for us, but if the manufacture of it be a wholesome and happy one, and if, on the whole, the sum that we are going to spend will do as much good spent in this way as it would if it were spent in any other way. John Ruskin.
Old Folks Find New Remedy Ends All Kidney and Bladder Miseries
Drives Rheumatic Pains Away, Ri lieves Backache and Bladder Disorders After A Few Doses Are Taken. Sleep disturbing bladder weaknesses, backache, rheumatism, and the many other kindred ailments which so commonly come with declining years, need no longer be a source of dread and misery to those who are past the middle age of life. The new discovery, Croxone, cures all such disorders because it removes the very cause of the trouble. It soaks right into the kidneys, through the walls and linings; cleans out the little filtering glands and cells, and gives the kidneys new strength to do their work properly. It neutralixes and dissolves the poisonous uric acid substances that lodge in the joints and muscles, causing rheumatism; and makes the kidneys filter and sift out all the poisonous waste It a Point to OF Clotlfliainigf Men, Women
