A1o $N"e q W hne proper 1HelQQQ OF adjustment
OF the difficulties in Louisiana. The plan IS sub
stantially this: Under the Constitution Of Lou
isana the Legislature Is made the sole Judge q,
the qualifications Of its own members It L
grarely doubted BY the best lawyers in Looisi
ana, ,of both: parties, whether the Returning
Beard, which is specifically invested with juris.
diction over the Electoral vote, has authority to
pass upon the credentials ofmembcrs Of the Leg
fslaturc- The Warmoth plan admits the right Of
the Returning Board to do this as to uncon-
tested seats, but NOT as to the seats in contest
Warmoth proposes that the members of both
branches OF the Legislature whose seats arc III
contested shall IN ect and pass upon
THE THREE CONTESTED PLACES
irrespective Of the action OF the Returning
Board; that then the two Houses shall meet In
Joint Convention, canvass the returns and
count and declare the vote for Governor.
Under this arrangement, irrespective of the
contested seats, the seats would stand
about 20 Democrats to 16 Republicans,
with IN approximate Republican majority Of
twelve on joint ballot. OF these twelve, there
arc seven kepublicans- than enough to
turn the election-who are not particularly
friendly to the Packard Government, and who,
independent Of partisanship, could be relied
upon to
SECURE FAIR COUNT:
The balance Of power in the Joint Couventton.

d1sgraceful to the Government, and could not

Interrupted Table Talk.

The other evening the Rev. Mr.. Philacter
sat down at the tea table with very
thoughtful air,and attended to the wants
of his brood in very distracted manner.
Presently he looked up at his wife and
said:
1.-THE Apostle Paul.
"Got an awful lump on the head 'safter-
noon," broke in the pastors eldest son,
'playing base ball. Bat flew out OF the
strikers hands when I was umpire, and
cracked me right over the ear, AN dropped
me. Hurt9 Gollyw and the lad shook
his head in dismal but expressive panto-
mime as he tenderly rubbed lump that
looked like billiard ball with hair on
it. The pastor gravely paused for the in
terruption, and resumed:
"The Apostle Paul.
"Saw Mrs. O'Gheminie down at Green
baum's this afternoon" said his eldest
daughter, addressing her mother. "She
had on the same old everlasting black
silk, made over with vest of tilleul
green silk, coat-tail- basque pattern, over
skirt made with diagonal folds in front,
edged with deep fringe; yellow straw
hat, with black velvet facing inside the
brim, and pale blue flowers. She's going
to Chicago"
The good minister waited patiently,
and then, in tones just shade louder
than before, said:
''The Apostle Paul.
"Went in swimmin' last night, with
Harry and Ben, pop, and stepped on a
clam SHE'LL" exclaimed his youngest son
"cut my foot so l can't wear my shoe
and, please, can't stay home tomorrow"
The pastor informed his son that he
might stay away from the river, and then
resumed his topic. He said:
"The Apostle Paul says
"My teacher is an awful liar" shouted
the second son; che says the world is as
round as an orange and it turns round all
the time faster than circus man can
ride. l guess he hain't got much sense"
The mother lifted warning finger
toward the boy and said-"sh !" and the
father resumed:
1.-THE Apostle Paul says
"Don't bite off twice as much as you
can chew" broke out the eldest son, re-
proving the assault of his little brother
on piece of cake. The pastors face
showed Just trifle of annoyance as he said,
in very firm, decided tones:
"The Apostle Paul says
s'There's fly in the butter!" shrieked
the youngest hopeful of the family, and
general laugh followed. When silence
was restored the eldest daughter, with an
air of curiosity, said:
swell, but, pa, really would like to

"Pass me the mustard" said the pastor,
absently.
Then the committee rose, and the SEN
ate went into executive session and soon
after adjourned.-HaWkeye.

What Little Tot Does.

Monday take my little tub
And nil with soap and water;
And my dollies' clothes | rub, ruo, rub;
Ma me her good daughter.
Tuesday heat my tiny iron,
And smooth my dollies' dresses;
Dress them up nicely in clean clothes,
And comb their silken tresses.
On Wednesday mamma cuts some work,
And sew it neat and tidy;
And mamma comes and kisses me
And says I'm little lady.
Thursday to the kitchen go,
Help mamma do the baking;
And bread or cake, or pies or tarts,
make what she is making.
Friday give my dolls feast,
Then take them all out walking;
You'd laugh to hear the funny things
They say when they are talking.
Saturday we have merry time,
Some game or merry frolic,
Unless dolly is taken sick
With toothache or the collie.
Sunday read some little book
Until the bells are ringing,
With mamma go to church and hear
The sermon and the singing.

QUEER PETs.-There is a curious case
at Rockport of the singular attachment
sometimes instituted between man and
the lower animals. A Mr.. Hale has been
for long time accustomed to throw bits
of food for some cells in little brook that
runs across the back of his lot. Latterly
he observed that they seemed to be wait
ing for his visit, and with q little training
they were induced to eat food directly
from his hand. They we're learned to
play and fondle about his fingers, held in
the water and enjoyed his caresses. More
recently the largest one of the four, .
huge old fellow over two feet long and
very large around, allows Mr.. II. to take
him entirely out of the water, slide him
about freely from hand to hand, appar-
emily enjoying the novel gymnastics.
When Mr.. II. goes to the brook he calls
them with q peculiar whistle, and they
soon come rushing briskly from down
stream. Not long ago he brought them
his usual lunch Of fish and mackerel,
when only the large one came. The eel
waited few moments, then turned down
stream and soon came hack, bringing his
tardy family to supper. This shows
there IL no touch of the human in them,
for any ordinary biped boarder would
have pitched in without waiting, and
cleared the table - Boston Globe.

Cost Of Transportation Before the
Railroad.

That there was no need for new
methods of Accommodation, the in
creasing population made every day more
apparent. In 1884 the cost of transpor-
tation from Philadelphia to Erie is stated
to have been two hundred and forty
nine dollars ton, the method being by
pack horses principally, which were
driven in lines of ten or twelve, each
horse being tied to the tail of the one
preceding, so that the train was under
the management of one driver. Each
horse carried pack weighing about two
hundred pounds. In 1889 the first saw
mill in Ohio was built by the New Eng
land and Ohio company, about sixteen
miles from Marietta, on Wolf Creek,
about mile above its junction with the
Muskingum. The crank for this mill
was made in New Haven, Conn.,, and
weighed hundred and eighty pounds.
1t was carried by pack horses over the
mountains to the YoughiOgney river, at
Simrel's ferry, and thence shipped by
water to Marietta. This same year the
first wagon-load of goods is said to have
been transported, by the southern route
through Virginia, from Hagerslown,
Maryland, to Brownsville, Pennsylvania,
whence, by the Monongshela, water COM
munication was had with the Ohio river.
A train of four horses could take a ton
from Hagerstown and return in a little
less than month, the distance being one
hundred and forty miles, at charge of
three dollars a hundred weight or sixty
dollars q ton.
The operations on the lakes during the
war of 1912 called attention again to the
cost of transportation, and in 1918 the
House directed the secretaries of war and
of the treasury to report at the next ses-
sion q list of the internal improvements
in progress, and plans for aiding by APP
preparations. In the discussion upon this
motion it was stated that the expense for
the transportation of each barrel of -four
to Detroit was not less than sixty dollars,
while for every pound of ammunition
and other material it Was not less than
fifty cents.-Harpers Magazine.

Influence in the World.

Who can estimate the power of per-
sonal influenced The careful, industrious
mistress of house has an influence on
her circle the extent of which she herself
cannot calculate. So has that fast and
frivolous wife, to whom pleasure is as the
breath of her nostrils, her fine clothes
dearer than her children, and of all sor-
rows work and duty the most sorrowful
How many young minds has she not
warped by her pernicious example, so
brilliant in its setting and SO seductive in
its lines? 1t is so hard to work, so pleas
ant to play. Has bold, slangy girl no
influence over her comrades2 If good,
pure and modest girl who neither firts
nor idles, neither talks slang nor affects
improper subjects; who finds no pleasure
in silly little intrigues, and abhOrs all
degrading little falsehoods; who believes
in duty, and acts as if she believes-if
such girl as this is friend which every
wise mother desires her child to make,
so, on the other hand, is the bold and
idle, thriftless and undutiful girl the one
whom she would wish to be avoided, be-
cause of the power of influence. Every
man and woman living has influence for
good or evil. Our personality has influ-
ence; our habits, our modes of thought,
our fashion of dress, our method of
speech, each circumstance of our individ-
uality, makes its mark, and either repels
by the distaste or attracts by the admira-
ton which it inspires; there is no one so
small and Insignificant as to be destitute
of the power of stirring, to some extent,
the world in which he lives.
