The Sea Serpent Recently Seen in an
Illinois Lake.
Lewiston 1ll) Cor. Chicago Record.

Lewiston nl) Cor. Chicago Record.
Rev. A. X. Tullis, pastor of the Methodist
Church in this city, has discoN cred the
Thompson lake sea serpent. The report has
been rife, not only this summer, but on &C.
casions In the last year or two, that some
h-deous reptile, unlike in form and actions
to the common water snake inhabited
Thompsons lake, a beautiful sheet of
water near Lewistown. This lake is tribu-
tary to the Illinois river and is noted for
It's excellent game fish and as q resort for
hurters.
Mr.. Tulis and his little son Harry were
fishirg in the lake yesterday when the
reverend gentleman's attention was called
to conmotion among some sea moss and
POND lilies about 200 feet distant Suddenly
from the mass of moss a frightful object
arose. 1t vas the head of the serpent,
huge. fiat. with long whislSers bushy
hair protruding from either side of the
head. The eyes were almost as big as
saucers. and changed their color constantly.
while from the Creatures Jaw a wicked
forked tongue shot necessarily. The air
was filled with a peculiar fetid odor. which
seemed to be emitted from the reptile.
The creature was angry, and seemed to
be entangled in the sea moss, for Il thresh-
ed the water into q foam for hundreds of
feet around Suddenly, with a mighty
effort, 1t threw portion of its body out Of
the amount of water disturbed it seemed
as IL the creature were hundreds of feet
In length. The body was very large, COW
cred with huge scales, as 1t seemed to Mr.
Tullis. although close view of the reptile
could not be had, from the fact that it
displayed its body but instant keeping
only its head above water. While attempt
ing to get nearer view little Harry Tullis
fell out of the boat. When his father had
hauled him on board again the reptile had
disappeared.
The creature has been seen at intervals
this season. One farmer living near the
lake says that he saw the creature lumber
ing along through his corn field week ago,
crushing down the stalks ten feet at a
row. Some fields of grain have been atsso-
lutely destroyed by the monster. 1t leaves
the water at evening and roams through
the timber and fields of grain, ard seems
to be IN search of animal food. The natives
In the vicinity are in terror. An effort is
berg made to organize for the capture of
the reptile.

The absurd small bonnet continues in

men got baldheaded like men do, whatever
would they do for something to balance
the inconseQuent things on? Cne that /
saw recently was composed Of a double
row OF forget-me-nots reaching only TO the
middle of the sides Of the head, and had
a tiny knot Of turquoise velvet and a jet
ran In front. 1t looked like a headdress,
and not at all like a bonnet
Another favorite style for evening wear
Is a wreath Of roses with few knots of
ribbon standing straight up in front, and
sometimes one behind also; often the roses
come to Mary Stuart point In front and
the knot is at the back. You can fix up
anything you like and call II a bonnet or a
nat, just as you like, and nobody will say
you nay. You ought, Of course, TO be care
ful to have 1T becoming, but 1t is often the
case that very little attention IL paid to
that; still, on general principles, one should
really see that charming an article of
dress as bonnet a hat is becoming.
1t requires no additional expense and only
the exercise of little taste, which an un-
becoming bonnet will soon stamp q woman
as lacking.

How Workers Live.

From the St. Louis Glo5eDemocrat
An English health journal expresses great
surprise at the quantity of food eaten by
American as against English laborers. 1t
is very curious to see how different foods
preponderate in the different industries.
The textile worker in Europe will have 95
pounds of meat per annum for every 100
units of consumption. or, say. quarter of
a pound Of meat day, while steel workers
indulge In ia pounds for every 100 units.
On the other hand. the weaver consumes
more flour than the steel worker-215 pounds
per 100 units instead of POS pounds. He also
takes about Il pounds of sugar more per
100 units and a dozen more eggs; of butter,
lard and tea both take about the same,
though both in tea and coffee the weaver
a little exceeds the other. That is, In the
calling which demands the greater muscular
exertion a greater amount of heterogeneous
food is required. On the European continent
the consumption of meat by workers Is
much less than in Britain. Even in the iron
industry the German, with 16 IL pounds
per 100 units, is little more eXtrayaeant
than the English weaver; while the French
man consumes only 81 ga pounds and the
Belgian 30 IL pounds. On the other hand
the latter consume more flour and eggs,
more than twice as much of each. Their
consumption of coffee. too, is large-14 and
10 pounds respectively to the Englishman's
3 IL pounds; but IT must also be taken in
the reckoning thdt tea does not appear in
their accounts. But all these figures pale
before the statistics of food consumption in
America. The Illinois iron worker manages
to consume S93 pounds of meat per 100
units, and though this is excessive 206 10
pounds are put down as the average of
Pennsylvania, 1917 "a pounds for Ohio,
ISL IA pounds for West Virginia and l55
pounds for Tennessee. The average con-
sumption of flour for the states is about $50
pounds, but voraciOus Illinois again comes
to the fore with 1868 pounds; and sugar but
ter and eggs ere everywhere more lavishly
used than in Europe. Here, as in Europe
iron and steel Industries are found to be
more self-indulgent than other trades but
the expenditure here is far above that of
even the most eXtraVagant worker in Eu-
rope. Much of the food accounted for in
these figures is actually consumed, but a
largo margin must be allowed for what is
wantonly destroyed, and when the history
of the waste of food products in the United
States comes TO be written it will contain
some Etartl!r: and not altogether pleasant
reading

happens to be for children's clothing. A
