Continued satisfactory results are re-
ported of the operation of the indeter-
inmate sentence and the parole law in
Indiana, even excee ling the hopes of
those who were favorable to the law.
Much of the improvement in the penal
institutions due to The new laws can
not be told, but the tangible results
shown in figures are very encouraging.
From the reformatory rs men have
been paroled since April, 1897, and un-
satisfactory results are reported in
only eighteen per cent. of the cases.
Better figures even are given by the
State prison, which reports that of the
$50 men paroled only twenty-three or
nine per cent, have violated the par
ole. The wages earned by the paroled
men, including the board furnished
them, aggregate S170,156, practically
all of which would have been lost to
the men and their families under the
old system.

There has recently been an epidem-
ic of mumps among the school chill
dren of the city. According to the
rules of the health department a child
may not return to school until he has
fully recovered. Every afternoon has
brought to the health department Is
or 20 youngsters, some with swollen
cheeks and some without. 1t is the
duty of the physician in charge of the
Office to examine these applicants for
clean bills of health and see if any
trace of the infection remains But
the force of the health department is
small and sometimes there is no doc
tor in the office for an hour at time.
This works a hardship on mothers
waiting with their children, and DR..
Carlin yesterday bethought himself of
the magic touchstone by which Miss
Mollie Currigan. guardian of the out
er office, might herself test the appli-
cants.
pickles are the thing" said DR..
Carlin. 'If person with the slight
est trace of Inflammation in the thy
roid glands takes bite of anything
sharply sour. the face is instantly con-
torted. Ia extreme cases the pain is
extreme"
So bottle Of mixed pickles was
added to the pharmacopoeia of the
office.
Now, when there is no doctor in the
office, Miss Currigan lines UP the ap-
plicants for certificates and goes
down the lines with the bottle of
pickles. If the child takes the pickle
and smiles as q healthy child should,
he may go back to school again; but
If he scowls in pain. then he is con-
demned to stay at home.-Denver

ing to trust himself again on the wing,
and the hawk had no alternative but
to take him on the ground. which he
speedily attempted to do.
But on the ground the partridge was
far more agile than he. running this
way and that with great speed, The
hawk would jump awkwardly up and
dart after the scudding partridge, who
just at the right moment jumped from
the ground and over his back. descend

running harder than before.
Time after time this was done. At
every attempt the partridge met the
hawk with outstretched neck and rails
ed hackles. in the attitude of a fighting
bantam cock. jumping up to avoid be-
ing clutched whenever the hawk struck
at him. In fact, his whole action was
that of plucky little game bantam.
This went on for some time. until. as
regret to say. ended the unequal
strife by putting the partridge once
more fairly on the wing, when, Of
