IN Anuia Is IN Inc haOit OF causing local
showers by sending rocket shaped reser-
yoirs of ether to hight of about a
mile or so and then letting the ether
escape through small holes The in
tense cold caused by the evaporation of
the ether condenses the moisture in the
air and showers result. There is good
science in this plan and it may prove
to 5e exceedingly serviceable, and
much better than the plan pursued so
far in this country. 1t is certainly
much quieter.
The mystic seven lodge, a recently
organized benevolence society, that can
consistently claim to be multam IN
parUo, gave q grand picnic to its mem
bers last Sunday. The grounds selected
fer the picnic, near Kings on the Platte
We're most appropriate, being beauti-
fully decorated in natures verdure.
The day was admirably suited for the
festive occasion. A delightfully."- { 81
breeza permeated the surroundings,
played lightly with the verdant foliage
and agitated into miniature swells and
rolling waves the bright surface of the
winding river. Kings ford is a charm
ingly picturesque place and one needs
only to 60 there to know this. No
wonder, then, that the Mystic Society
spent pleasant time there.
The Burlington & Northern r. Y.
Company have put on a new train
between Lacrosse and Chicago for the
special accommodation of those who
wish to visit Chicago and the Worlds
Fair. The train will leave Lacrosse at
1925 a. M, Cassville at 10:0S and Potosi
at 1854 and arrives in Chicago at 6:25.
The return train leaves Chicago at $50
a. m. and reaches Lacrosse at 7.30. As
this will be daylight train in both d.
rections, it will doubtless prove a con-
venie nee to many, beside it will be
worth your while to see the beautiful
country through which the Burlington
Route passes. These trains make fast
time and are equipped with modern
coaches, and every want of the passen-
ger is carfully looked after by compe-
tent employees.
"I'd like to be boy again without a
thought or care, with freckles scattered
on my face and hayseed in my hair;
I'd like to rise at O'Clock and do a
hundred chores, and saw the wood and
feed the hogs and lock the stable doors;
and herd the hens and watch the bees
and take the mules to drink, and teach
the turkeys how to swim SO that they
wouldn't sink; and milk about one hun
dred cows and bring in wood to burn.
and stand out in the sun all day and
churn and churn and churn; and wear
my brothers cut eff clothes and walk
four miles to school, and get licking
every day for breaking some old rule,
and then go home again at night and
do the chores once more, and milk the
COWS and feed the hogs and curry mules
galore; and then crawl YEARLY up stairs
to seek my little bed and hear dad say;
That worthless boy! he isn't worth his
breadrn I'd like to be boy again, a
boy has so much fun; his life is Just a
round of mirth from rise to set of sun;
l guess there's nothing pleasanter than
closing stable doors and herding hens
and chasing bees and doing evening
chores"
The mouth is the front door of your
face. 1t is the aperture TO the cold
storage room of your anatomy. Some
mouths look like peaches and cream,
and some look like hole chopped into
brick wall to admit new door oil
window. The mouth is a hotbed fol
toothaches, the bunghole for oratory
and baby's browning glory. 1t is the
crimson aisle of our liver and natures
apparatus fol blowing out the gas. 1t is
patriotism's fountain head and tool
chest for pie. Withou. it politician
would be wanderer on the face of the
earth and the cornetist and the chorus
girl would go down to unhonoIed
graves. 1t is the grocer's friend, the
orators pride and the dentists hope.
1t puts some men on the rostrum and
masy on the stone pile 1t is tempta-
tion's lunch counter when attached to q
maiden, and tho tobacconist's friend
when attached TO a man. Without il
married life would be perpetual sum

half of his attractions. And most OF
all and greatest Of all, if there were nc
mouths would be no good byes or hap
