A Sculptor's Sitters.

A successful sculptor, says the Man
chester Times, gets much amusement
out of the sitters whose busts he moulds,
especially those of strong originality.
Carlyle, after much persuasion, was in
iuced to sit for his bust to Sir Edgar
Boehn, the sculptor royal to the Eng
lsh court. "I'll give you twenty-five
minutes to make what you can of me-
said he one day, storming in at the door
of Boehm's studio He stood there,
watch in hand. while Sir Edward ma
nipulated the damp clay. Scarcely had
the minute-han1 pointed to the appoint
ed moment for the sitter's departure
when he sculptor pushed his clay aside.
But Carlyle had been drawn on to talk
and to forget; so he insisted On giving
the sculptor another two and twenty
minutes. He returned to the tudio on
another day to be studied at the artists
leisure. Lord Stratford de Radcliffe, " no
SO long ruled at Constantinople as the
British minister, had passionate tenn
per. After sitting to Sir Edgar for his
bust he visited the studio to inspect it
He did not like it, and knitting his overs
hanging brows into a great frown, he
shouted out, why, you have made me
look like bad-tempered man."

Are You Too Thin.

Are you painfully thin? Do you
ever stand before your mirror and
heave a sigh Of regret at your lack OF
roundness of face and form which is
so apparent?
If you do so you may find consola-
tion at hearing of system Of ''put-
ting on flesh" as employed with salts
factory results by a number of people.
Briefly, you go to bed and allow your
self to be fed up. In twenty-four
hours you have eight glasses of milk
with cream and three huge meals.
That the fattening effect of this
food may not be allowed to be worked
on, you are allowed to make no exer-
tion. Everything short of the pro-
cess of masticatiOn is done for you.
You don't even wash yourself. Be
sides being washed you are massaged
and rubbed with oil. The last opera
tion is an Ineligible part of the pro-
cess of putting on fat, but not quite
so clear as the electricity.
This sort of thing is done continu-
Ously for three months, and the
woman that has gone through the
operation that she may make a more
presentable figure gets up with a
lighter heart and body perhaps two
stone heavier, says, the Detroit Free
Press. Some women go through this
process for the cure OF nervous COM
plants. Do you think you would be
willing to submit to this treatment
for the sake of acquiring a plumpness
which you do not now possess?

ALOss to Kansas.

Rev. J. A. Lippincott has resigned
the passionate of the First M. E. church
of Topeka, and early in September will
become the pastor of the Arch Street
Methodist Episcopal church, Philadel-
phia.
This announcement is received with
much surprise by the members of the
First church, as they had considered
DR.. Lippincott permanent for at least
two years more.
At the meeting of the quarterly con-
ference of the First NJ. E. church, DR..
Lippincott rendered his resignation.
with the explanation that at the request
of Bishop Foss he had been called to
become pastor of the Arch street church,
Philadelphia, and that he had accepted
the call. The members of the quarterly
conference were taken by surprise, but
not wishing to stand in the way of his
going to larger and stronger church,
his resignation was accepted, to take
effect early in September.
DR.. Lippincott cane to Topeka about
three years ago, having resigned the
CHARACTERISTIC of the state university to
succeed DR.. Waters as pastor of the
First NJ. E. church.
Who will succeed him is not yet
known, but some of the prominent mem
bers are already looking around for an
available pastor.
One of the most active members o.
the church said:
'We need just such man as Pres
ident ". A. Quayle, of Baker university

his resignation of that institution, tt

may be that he could be induced to come

be satisfactory to the church, as he ii

worker among the people. There will b'
an effort made to secure him.

SO, TOT acres of as good oats as were ever
raised anywhere.
Independence Reporter: Farmers
around Geuda Springs hold 27,0OO
bushels of old wheat.
Railroad Commissioner Mitchell: 81
saw a farmer in Sedgwick county Sun
day who said his field of 100 acres OF
wheat had threshed ont an average OF
thirty five bushels per acre"
Salina Republican: There is lots OF
old wheat being brought to Salina now.
and the farmers say there is large
quantity to be sold yet. The farmers
or Saline county are not hard up this
year.
From Irving a train load OF cattle
twelve cars-were shipped from w. J.
Williams stock yards for Chicago, last
week. They were fine bunch of cattle,
and were estimated to he worth upwards
of $15, 900.
A Jewell county farmer, Frank Wal
lace, raised forty tons of clover and tim
Othy this year, and ten acres of alfalfa,
which made heavy crop. He thinks
his second cutting will be as good as the
first. The best farmers are getting into
tame grass as fast as possible.
Salina Republican: Threshing has
begun in dead earnest and large num-
Der of farmers are threshing their wheat
from the shock. The yield is splendid,
both in quantity and quality. The gen
eral opinion is that Saline county will
have over three million bushels of wheat
to sell.
Gypsum City Advocate: J. H. Hard
ing completed his harvest July 5. The
best will make thirty bushels and the
lowest twenty bushels per acre. His
February oats were good in quality
but not so plentiful in straw. His late
oats were the best in the neighborhood.
His corn is in tassel.
In Jewell county David Jones has the
finest grape vines seen in Kansas. One
thing you can learn by looking at Mr.
Jones' vineyard, and that is that most
people plant grape vines too close to-
gether. These vines occupy from fifteen
to thirty feet each, and for fruit one of
them is worth half dozen vines as they
are usually crowded together Sixteen
of these vines list year lore 1000
pounds of grapes and they are loaded
again this year.
Atchison Champion: The harvest is
on in good earnest throughout the
Central BrancS territory. Never was
there such a yield before. Conversing
with farmer between jamestown and
Scottsville, the question was asked:
SLOW viii your field of wheat average
with former years?' and he replied,
better than ever" Last year he
said his wheat turned out twenty
bushels; this year it will average thirty
five or forty bushels. And this field of
wheat is about the average.
