Her Timely Suggestion.

"Little pitchers have large ears"
Every father and mother has at some
time or other had that fact impressed
upon their minds. A North Omaha
family contains a two-year-old girl
who is exceedingly precocious, and
picks up everything she hears. The
mother drinks beer by direction of the
physician, and every other evening her
husband takes a little jug down to the
corner and brings it back filled with
an amber fluid that foams in the glass.
The little girl has taken due note of all
this, together with the words used by
her mamma when she wants the jug
filled.
A few evenings ago friends called,
and it happens that these friends are
very strict prohibitionists. AS the
guests sat talking with the father and
mother the little girl walked into the
room with the jug Rugged against her
little breast. Walking up to her papa,
she exclaimed:
ooh, dear me papa! it's drefful hot.
I fink you'd better rush re growler."-

Childrcn,s Games GOING Out.

I wish some folk-lorist would tell me
whether there is a real decadence of
children's ceremonial games. 1t seems
to me that, while 1 see as much Of
children as ever, 1 do not see so much
Of the old games as I once did. When,
for instance, do the children play the
old-fashioncd "forfeits?' 'Forfeits"
with us, in the old days, was an ac-
compartment Of other games, the for
feits or penalties being levied as the
result of failures-or even in some IN
stances Of s~uccesses-in play. But that
did no prevent it from being a most in
'teresting, delightful and significant ex-
ercise in itself. The ritual that ac-
companies it is a beautiful and poetic
thing.-Boston Transcript.

RECREATION AND HEALTH

Both Can Be Secured at the Indiana MIN
eral Springs. Indiana.
Like the young man in springtime,
whose fancy Tightly turns to thoughts
of love-" when summertime comes we
ell turn our thoughts to the consider
alton of the important question of
where we shall go for rest, recreation
and health.
There are all kinds of health and
pleasure resorts throughout this broad
land Of ours, some of them, unfortu-
nately, anything but what their names
imply, and apparently operated for no
other purpose than to relieve the in
valid and pleasure seeker, financial
~. So much so is this the ase that
it is indeed gratifying to the n seek
ing rest and recuperation from the
cares Of the business and social world,
al we'll as the pain racked invalid,
who Is fortunate enough to discover a
place where to use a popular express
sion, he "gets. his moneys WORTH.
One of the most interesting, pictur-
esque and delightful places in this
country is unquestionably the resort
known as the Magno Mud and Lithia
Water Cure. located at Indiana Nine
raj Springs. Indiana. Here come the
overworked business man. the worn
out devotee of society and the profess
sional man on the verge Of nervous
prostration, as we'll as the sufferer
from rheumatism. kidney and skin
diseases for which the baths are es-
pecially beneficial. The place is also
largely patronized by those who only
seek pleasure and recreation, its loca-
ton making 1t particularly adapted for
this purpose. There are many roman
tic and beautiful spots and places Of
interest in the vicinity and it would
be hard to find a section Of country
containing so many beautiful drives.
The country is very hilly. but the
roads are all graveled and kept in
good condition. This is n of the
things that makes the place especially
attractive to those afflicted with rheu-
matism, as driving is about the only
outdoor pleasure one crippled with
rheumatism can indulge in. Some Of
the cures effected are really marvel
GUS and many VINO have gone to the
Magno Mud Cure as q last resort have
returned home within a. few weeks
filed with renewed health and
strength.
The accommodations, service. table
and attendance is all that can be de-
sired and the rates very reasonable
indeed. The Springs is under the able
management Of Major H. L. Kramer

to him will bring complete detailed
information as well rs a copy of the
