For the Entire Family.

Although the leading object Of Farm and
Home, which our readers may procure in
connection with this paper, is, of course, to
acquaint the cutivator of the soil with the
best methods of farming, it realizes that the
success of the farm largely depends upon
the management of the household, Accord
ingly, much valuable space in each issue is
devoted to the wife, mother and daughters,
not forgetting the boys and girls, who are
soon to become-at least we hope they are
farmers and farmers wives. Replete each
issue with great variety of original arti-
Giles on the farm, garden and household, by
the leading rural writers of the day, Farm
and Home is not only Indispensable TO the
farmer, but meets the requirements Of the
entire family We cordially recommend it
as pure in tone and well devised to instruct
and entertain the farmer and his family.

ample, there is a strong story of camp
life, by Til. Tilford, entitled 1.-The Off
cial Christmas of the Sheriff of Ginger
bread Gap;'' "Embezzling a Christmas
Turkey" by W. S. Gidley; and, of
course, a ghost story, this one by John
Kendrck Bangs, which will insure a
hearty laugh. The rest of the matter is
varied enough to suit all tastes. There is
Jacobite story by Stanley j. Weyman;
curious yarn by Samuel Merwin; the
second half of two-part story, and an
instalmept Of the serial; tale of adven-
ture in Cuba, and paper on Ingenious
Pioneers" by Cyrus c. Adams; sugges
tons for holiday gifts, under tile heading

A MATTER OF Comfy.

1t is well understood that it is a
breach of comfy for a government
to send an obnoxious representative
to a friendly nation. The United
States recognizes this in its dealing
with other countries. Why, then,
should the states OF this nation be
treated With less consideration than
foreign countries?
If the government would not
send on unpopular minister or con-
sui to a South African country, no W
can itjustity its action in appoint
ing to Office in Southern State
bgrsons who, on account of their
race and other objections, are dis,
tasteful and repugnant to the great
body OF the respectable tax payers
of that State?
Mr.. Mckinley would not send an
Objectionable person tc Spain OF
any other foreign country, but he
does not respect the wishes ard
prejudices of Georgia, Alabama and
Louisiana. How does he Justify
this difference ?-Birmingham Age
Herald.

The policy of the Illinois Central
railroad, encouraging its employees
to buy its stock, is a wise one. The
stock was offered TO them at par
500 per share. 1t is now worth in
the market s108, and is steadily
rising. The employees are permits
ted to pay for the stock On the in
stallment plan. Hence, whenever
they save small amount from their
earnings they can apply it in pay
ment Of their stock. They now
own 1000 shares and have paid
$4,000 on 1924 additional shares.
AT the rate which they are putting
their earnings into the stock it will
not be long before they will own
a pretty big block of it.

We don't expect prosperity to

who help themselves. 1t will not
come to the chronic grumbler. 1t

FAST DRAWING ID A CLOSE A Bad Day for the Defense of
 Luetgert. MARY SEIMMERING AGAIN
William Charles, the Defendants Business Part. ner Also Suffered on Cross Examination
 Summing Up Will Begin Monday

Chicago, Oct. 7.-One more day of evil dence and then the finish of the Luet- gert trial will be in sight. The state announced today that it has but four more witnesses and that it would get through with them without much de- lay tomorrow.
 An adjournment will then be taken until Monday when the defense will of- fer small amount of sur-rebuttal and then the way will be clear for the ar guments of the attorneys, which will take about one week.
 It was a bad day for the defense The evidence of their two chief witnesses was almost destroyed. Mary Seimmer- ing and William Charles, Luetgerts business partner, were the sufferers. Witness after witness came upor the stand and swore that when Mary Seinl- gnering had denied that she had admit ted improper relations with Luetgert she had not told the truth. They said she had admitted it and in the most unequivocal manner. Most of those witnesses were members of the grand jury which had indicted Luetgert and their evidence was crushing. They all told the same story and the most des- perate efforts of the defense could not shake them.
 Prominent business men who had deal ings with Charles and the bankers with whom he had done business swore that he could not be believed under oath and told of shady business transactions of which he had been guilty.
 In this case as in that of Mary Seim- mering, the defense made frantic ef- forts to save the character of their wit nesses but were not able to accomplish anything.
