THERMOMETER TALES.
The Temperature Taker and What the
Patients Thought of 1t.

The Temperature Taker and What the
Patients Thought of 1t.
To people who are fortunately unfa-
miliar with sickness the thermometers
used In taking the temperature of pa
tients are always source of considera-
BILE interest. A professional nurse whose
experience has led her to numerous To-
calities and brought her in contact with
many phases of life tells two stories
which illustrate the foregoing state
ment.
In one of the local hospitals she had
male patient who was threatened
with run of fever. AS she approached
his bedside one morning he querulously
complained Of lack of nourishment.
IT didn't get enough to eat, he said.
II feel almost starved"
"Well, WE'LL" she said soothingly,
1--WE will see about that. "Here," she
added, "let me put this in your mouth. "
She inserted the thermometer between
his teeth and turned away moment
When she looked back, he was working
the bulb around between his jaws at a
great rate.
"Hold on" she cried, "You will
break the thermometer
He drew in his cheeks and apparent
ly gave mighty pull on the little in
strument, and then she removed it.
"Say," he grumbled, "there's no use
giving me that. I couldn't suck blame
thing out of it,
Another patient, a woman, begged of
the nurse for q drink.
"Wait," said the nurse and thrust
the thermometer in her mouth.
The patient lay back on her pillow
and placidly closed her eyes. A salts
fed expression slowly stole over her
face. When the time was up, the nurse
withdrew the tube.
"Why," said the patient with a
sigh of qualification, what lot of
good a little thing like that will do
you. "-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

NEWS OF GENERAL. INTEREST TO OUR
READERS.

Important Happenings in the State During
graph-Matter Selected for the Benefit Of
Our Own People.
Lansing, Mich, Oct. 13.-For many
years the most important citizen OF
Dimondale, an Eaton county village
ten miles south of here. was DR.. Tyler
Hull, who died two months ago. He
was greatly beloved by the entire COM
munity. He was lawyer as we'll as a
doctor, but did not practice at the bar.
In his capacity of physician he had
Travelled over every foot of the sur
rounding country for miles in every d.
rection, and was probably the best
known man in the county. His family
when his will was read, to learn that
1t provided that rs per cent. of the value
OF his estate should be expended for q
monument to be placed over his grave.
Although the executors are not yet
through with the appraisal of the es-
tate the aggregate value of the real
and personal property already amounts
to $4,000, and If the provisions of the
will are carried out 1t will be seen that
the monument will cost a very large
sum. The third item in the will reads
as follows:
my will is that there shall be erect
ed at my grave within one year after
my decease monument, If the assets
of the estate shall warrant, according
to the following conditions: If my es-
tate shall foot up to $4,000 or more,
then there shall be erected at my grave
granite monument worth $4,000. If
my estate shall aggregate 100000, and
under $4,000, there shall be erected at
my grave a granite monument worth
$6000."
Then there follow six other items,
couched in language similar to the
above, and being in substance as fol-
lows:
Between $4,000 and $4,000, a $4,000
monument; between $4,000 and $4,000.
$4,000 monument; between $4,000 and
$4,000, a $4,000 monument; between
$4,000 and $4,000, $500 monument;
between $4,000 and $4,000, 81, 900 mon
ument; between $4,000 and $4,000, $500
monument"
The last paragraph Of the will pro-
vided that If the estate should aggre-
gate less than $4,000 the whole question
Of a monument should be left to the
discretion of his wife. An effort will be
made by the family to have this pecu.
liar provision set aside, it being deemed
folly to expend such large sum for a
monument as it develops will be re-
quired If the will is obeyed

Pocatello, Ida, Oct. 13.-News Just re-
ceived from Long Valley, In Washington
county, says that there has been a bat
tie between settlers and the shepherds,
in which three men were killed and one
dangerously wounded. Details are mea-
ger, but 1t seems that fifteen of the set
tiers warned the sheepmen to leave the
valley ard when they refused, made an
attack upon the sheep camp. Thirty
shots were fired by the settlers and a
man named Barber was wounded. The
sheepmen then returned the fire, killing
three of the settlers. The rest of the
attacking party fed 1t Is thought that
Barber was killed.
The trouble is the outgrowth Of the
strained relations that have existed In
that section between the settlers and
sheepmen for some time. 1t Is not an
uncommon thing for stock to be manned
and haystacks to be burned and even
for settlers and sheepmen to exchange
shots, but no one has heretofore been
killed. officers have left Weiser for the
scene Of the trouble.
