SETTER TEACHES HER SON HOW TO CATCOABBITS Pearl Displays Intelligence in Field, Nate Edwards Asserts.

(By Nate Edwards.) ECONOMY, Ind., , Jan. 4. What wonderful Intelligence dogs display! Pearl, the noted Llewellyn setter dog, seems to realize there are no birds to hunt and has turned her attention to rabbits. Every morning at 6 o'clock she is in the field hunting. Often she brings a rabbit in time for breakfast. But the most human thing yet done was the training of her son, Teddy, to catch rabbits. She took him to the field while the snow was deep and two cotton tails were routed out. ' Teddy caught one and she caught the other, without being prompted by their master, Lon Edwards. Mrs. Errfma Hiatt and Mrs. Cora Bond were on the "emergency committee" sent out Tuesday to solicit stuff for the Wood family, who recently lost all their household goods in a fire. It was a stormy day, but they gathered ' canned fruit, beans, sugar, flour, potatoes, dishes, knives and forks, cups and saucers and many other articles that made the Woods radiant with joy. The maple molasses makers are

talking of the coming "spring run." They say there has not been enough rain to make the sap flow, and if it continues dry, then the maple 'lasses maliln for the spring of 1918 will be short. . . Five carloads of stock were loaded out here New Year's day for Indianapolis. D. W. Harls of Greensfork loaded out two cars of cattle. Miss Hazel Mendenhall has returned to Earlhani. after spending the holidays with her parents and other relatives. Mrs. Alice Falser Is shopping and visiting relatives at Richmond this week. Mr. and Mrs. Jake Williams and son Willie of Losantville were dinner guests of Johnny Williams and family Wednesday.

Crown Pri nee Charles.

LONDON, Jan. 3. The reports persist in capitals of Europe that King Ferdinand of Rumania has abdicated the throne and has been succeeded by the Crown Prince Charles. King Ferdinand, who is a member of the Hohenzollern family, succeeded his uncle, King Charles, in October, 1914, King Charles having died October 10. Roumania declared war on Austria on August 27, 1916, and King Ferdinand took personal command of the army shortly thereafter. King Ferdinand is the son of Prince Leopole of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, and two of his brothers are generals in the German army. He was born at Sigmaringen August 24, 1865.

Crown Prince Charles was born October 3. 1893, and is ah officer in the Rumanian army. He is unmarried, although early in 1914 it was reported

that his betrothal to the then Grand t

Duchess Olga of Russia had been arranged. Queen Marie of Rumania, who was a duchess of Saxe-Coburg Gotha, Is a granddaughter of Queen Victoria of Great Britain and was married to King Ferdinand January 10, 1893. Since Rumania's entrance into the war more than two-thirds of her territory has been overrun by the enemy. The royal family fled from the capital, Bukharest, in the fall of 1916, and since that time has been at Jassy.

You Eat too Much Meat We didn't need a war to teach us that meat eating is largely a habit founded upon dietetic ignorance. The best substitute for meat or eggs is the whole wheat grain; in fact, it is a more complete food abetter balanced ration. Shredded Wheat Biscuit contains the entire wheat grain prepared in a digestible form. It is 100 per cent, whole wheat boiled in steam, shredded, and then baked crisp and brown. Two of these crisp little loaves of baked whole wheat with milk make a nourishing, satisfying meal. Made in Niagara Falls, N.Y.
