LATEST Indiana NEWS.
A Great Cucumber Cron.

Goshen, Ind.-The cucumber crop in
the vicinity of Walkerton is the larg-
est in many years, and though the
farmers of that locality get from
$4,000 to $4,000 each year from the
WalkertOn branch of an Eastern pickle
factory, the outlook promises a better
crop than ever before. Though the
wheat crop was poor in places in
northern Indiana, the quality is the fin
est in a decade, and the abundant corn
crop will mean that many mortgages
will be lifted and general good times
will grace the county. In the past
three months there have been more
mortgages paid off in Elkhart county
than in any like period for fifteen
years.

THEY KISSED VICTORIA.
Last One of the Once Many school Girls
Is Dead.

Mrs. Eleanor Jeffreys. English. from
Raleigh, Essex, died in this city yester-
day, aged Sc, says a Paris correspond
ent. With her disappeared the Society
of the Kiss Royal. of which she was the
only surviving member. The society
was composed originally of forty-five
young women who had kissed Queen
Victoria at the cost of a shilling each.
That happened when her gracious ma
jesty was an infant in the cradle. One
day her nurse mad taken her out in a
pony cart for an airing in Richmond
park. The tiny princess was recog-
nized by the students of one of the
most aristocratic girls schools in Lon
don. They surrounded the little car
riage and one of the girls offered to
give the nurse a shilling if she would
let her kiss the pretty baby. The nurse
accepted. Then all the other students,
amid great laughter and endearments
to the child, in turn paid the toll and
kissed the princess, and the servant
made quite a little sum. When Vic
tOria had succeeded to the throne of
England the girls who had kissed the
queen formed a friendly association,
the Society of the Kiss Royal, which
Victoria honored shortly afterward

as glass of cider to pass his lips.

1t must not be understood, however,
from anything said above, that the
drinking of water in hot weather is
injurious. On the contrary large
quantities should be taken. two
quarts or more day. but it should be
taken a little at a time, and not too
cold. The body is constantly throw

one is Overheated. ice water taken sip

when swallowed in great draughts it

The most dangerous of all drinks in

without cost and without taste, it is
often taken in enormous quantities.
whereas if it cost money. seldom more
than single glass would be taken at

If the temptation to take a ''long

must not be cold; even cool spring
water is dangerous so INDUCED in. The
proper way is to rinse the mouth and
gargle the throat first with cold water
and then take a couple of swallows
not gulps-and so on, alternately
gargling and drinking.
