The officers are trying to find the per-
son or persons who have ruined Middle
brook at South WATERFORD for trout fish
ing. The brook has long been known
one of the best trout brooks in the coun-
ty- While n party of fishermen Were
looking the brook over recently they
found scores and scores of trout. some OF
them weighing over 1is pounds. turned up
at the sides of the stream. Investigation
showed that someone had turned bar
rel of lime into the brook for the pur-
pose of killing the fish and thus give
them a chance to make a big catch. Over
two bushe baskets of trout were taken
from the brook at one time. 1t is fearel
that unless a heavy rain falls so as to
cause great rise of water and WASH
away the lime that the brook is forever
ruined as a place for breeding trout Io-
cal officers are at work on the case and
expect to make an arrest in few days.

Put Away Aches and Pains.

In the FEBRUARY Ladies Home
Journal is the following bright bit
Of advice: AS soon as possible
dismiss from the mind every sug-
gestion that has to do with illness.
II you have bad an operation, and
it is over, let it glide into the
shadowy background Of memory.
Do not dwell upon it, do not talk
about it. Cultivate thought about
others, about the great, round
world, about it's heroes and its
martyrs. its battles and its victo-
ries, its happy homes and loving
hearts, but utterly turn from the
night side Of suffering, except as
you may relieve it, and dwell in
the blessed sunshine. There is no
sweeter thing on earth than to be
one Of Gods light-bringers, and
to make those about You stronger
because you are accomplishing.

MISSOURI LITERATURE.
A Mexico Man and Champ
Clark Contributors.

Columbia. Mo-. Jan. "a Doe
tor Richard II. Jesse, president,
and Doctor Edward A. Allen, pro.
fessor of the English language and
literature in the Missouri State
University, have just published a
book on Missouri Literature. "
The book will attract attention,
not only from the position occu.
pied by its editors, but also by its
treatment of the subject.
The book will contain selections
from the literary productions of
writer's identified with the State,
either by birth or residence. In
the preparation Of their work they
have read hundreds of books and
have exercised the greatest care to
avoid fragmentary extracts from
these.
Some prominent writers and
we'll known books are omitted for
the reason that they were protect
ed by copyright, and permission
could not be obtained from the
publishers to use the material; or,
that the extracts would unfairly
represent the writers. The book
is designed primarily for use in
the schools of the State as supple
mentary reading. 1t is expected
that a second volume will be pub
lished later, containing the more
important omissions. Many of
the selections in the book are from
works now out of print.
Among the more notable omis-
sions Of the work, due to the re-
fusals of the publishers to grant
permission for their use, are some
of the familiar verses of Eugene
Field.
The Missouri writer's from whom
material has been used are: Mark
Twain; Lewis and Clark, their eX-
petitions up the Missouri River,
and the discovery Of the Great
Falls; William Vincent Byas;
