Tales of petty thefts and various depradations are constantly brought to the notice of the Journal and while the victims of these annoyances have been lenient so far, the future may see the stern hand of the law fall on these boys. This condition of affairs brings to mind the question propounded some time ago: “What are we doing for our boys?” We are doing nothing, absolutely nothing to keep the minds of our youngsters occupied. There isn't a public swing, nor a device of any kind to draw the boy’s attention. He must ferret out amusements for himself and when there is no one to guide, this amusement quest is likely to result in wrongdoing. Some boys are naturally vicious, some* are handicapped by environment, while others with neither of these afflictions are just drifting towards evil ways. Fo • the first-mentioned there is little hope, but the remainder can be turned into good citizens, providing the matter is attended to now. The saloons in small towns would die a natural death at the end of this generation, if boys were cared for as should be. It is very true that saloons have wrecked many a career, but to many wrecked lives the saloon has been a last step towards an inglorious end—the first step was taken long before the saloon was a possible loafing place, j What are we doing for our boys? - On Your State of mind depends greatly your state of health. Therein lies the secret of many a faith cure. Lots of people’s sickness is nine-tenth’s imagination. The following will illustrate: A man was hale and hearty after his evening meal was consumed and sat down to read a medical almanac that h ad been thrown on the porch and in which he became interested after a casual glance. After reading it from cover to cover there was no doubt iu his mind but what he was suffering from diabetes, Bright’s disease, malaria, dispepsia, insomnia cancer of the stomach, lumbago, blood poisining sciatica, scrofula and rheumatism. The Summer Styles should cut the number of divorces in half. It used, to be that a fool man courted a girl with the torso of juno and the balance Diana, and when he was hooked he discovered that he had drawn a flock of excelsior and symmetricals. Nowadays a Gink can take his time, study the dope, and land a corn-fed specimen. He knows he isn’t being stung because he can believe his own eyes. —Get Electric or Pres-to-lite’s put on your “Auto” at Leppers Garage. The funeral of Mrs. Henry Ruffner will be held Saturday, at ten o’clock, at the Dunkard church. Mrs. Emory Strieby was 'at Goshen, Monday. Calyla Green of Indianapolis, is visiting Mrs. S. Winsor.

BURNS RECEIVED TOE FATAL Mis. Henry Ruffner Dies From The Effect Os Burns An alarm of fire from the western part of town was sounded about three o’clock, Tuesday afternoon, to which a number of the citizens re--1 sponded. It was found to be in the j kitchen of the house occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Henry Ruffner and was nearly out when the fire apparatus arrived. The damage to the house was not great but Mrs. Ruffner was severely burned about the body, her face being about the only portion of her body that escaped. The neighbors were aroused by Mrs. Ruffner’s screams and when they arrived on the scene they found her in the yard an d took her to the John Wogaman home next door, from which place she was removed in the evening to the Eureka Hotel and died there Wednesday about one o’clock. According to reports the fire is supposedly the result of an explosion of coal gas that had formed in the stove at which Mrs. Ruffner was putting up fruit. The kitchen and its contents were pratically ruined, but we understand there was no insurance. Tne deceased was about 36 years old and besides the husband, leaves three girls. The funeral arrangements have not yet been completed and can not be made until word is received from the parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mart Lingonfelter, of Waverly, Kansas. Diptheria Reports False Some one has started a report that there were diptheria cases in Syracuse, but the Journal has traced everyone of these rumors and found them entirely false. Inquiries of the doctors has elicited the information that there isn’t a case that even remotely resembles diptheria within a radious of four miles. There are probably ten cases at Milford, and several of these are serious but with proper precautions the spread there can probably be checked. Several events at Milford have been postponed for fear of spreading this dread disease. Brickel-Culler Miss Lena Brickel and Harry Culler quietly slipped away to Albany, Ind, to a friend of the former, and were married there, Saturday afternoon. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Bickel, and is a popular member of society and church circles. The groom is a rural mail carrier on Route No. 1, and is well and favorable known. The only thing that we hold against him is his slipping away without telling the Journal all about it, jvhen he has been connected with a newspaper long enough to know better. For this reason we with-hold congratulations. Lecture Course E. B. Persons of the Redpath Lyceum Bureau, was in Syracuse, Tues day, and will furnish talent for the lecture course given under the auspices of the,Ladies' Aid Society. The course will comprise four numbers and is expected to start the latter part of October, The talent engaged are Dr. James Grave Whiting and Rev. E. W. Heuston, lectuiers; and the Emily Waterman Company and the Regimental Quartette. Birthday Surprise Miss Ida Carlson was pleasantly surprised Saturday evening when a number of her friends met to remind her of her 14th birthday. The evening was spent in playing games after which refreshments of ice cream and cake were served. Those present were Vera Darr, Catherine Rapp, Winifred and Glenna Shannon, Edna Pearson, Marion, Edward and Robert Strieby. . Fire At Walkerton Lightning struck and set fire to ff big grain elevator owned by B. I, Holser & Co., at Walkerton Sunday afternoon at 4 o’clock, burning the building and contents to the ground, with a loss of approximately SIO,OOO. A large quantity of oats, wheat and rye filled the building to the roof and it was impossible to save any of the grain. Large Peach Wm. H. Pence brought a peach to this office weighing 12 ounces, and measuring 11% inches in circumference. It was of the Alberta variety grown on a two-year old tree and was one of the largest we have ever seen. To Ask Damages Property owners at Lake Wawasse are preparing to file suit for damages resulting from high water, which it is alleged has been brought about by damming processes. Goshen Democrat.

Many Applicants According to County Superintendent Sarber, about 1,000 persons so far this year have written for teachers’ licenses in Kosciusco county. The large number of applicants is accounted for by the Winona normal school during the summer. More than 300 of the papers were sent to the state superintendent’s office and about that number were sent to superinintendents in various parts of the state. Superintendent Sarber has graded 328 manuscripts since the first of the year. U. B Church News The Otterbein brotherhood and their wives spent last Thursday evening in the home of W. W. Jsckson who resides north of town.

The following evils were mentioned: swearing, intemperance, pride, egotism, indifference to God, moral cowardice of Christian people, and mental laziness and indolence.

McDonald for postmaster of Ligonier, and since the death of the latter he has announced that he will recommend George D. Gaby, democratic chairman of Noble county who moved to Ligonier some months ago. ♦ x Wedding Dinner A wpdding dinner was given at the MihrLecount home, Saturday, in honor of Earl Babb and his bride.
