81 have had singularly happy life,'
wrote Jessie Benton Fremont, not long
before her death; "happy in the loving
friendship of my father, of my hus-
band, of my sons, and now of my grand
sons. Other things are clouds only,
but behind them shines steady and
splendid the lasting thing-home
love-" The woman who as a child used
to sit on Andrew Jackson's knee, and
was petted by Dolly Madison and Mrs.
Alexander Hamilton; who in her
schooldays acted as bridesmaid at the
marriage of the Russian minister, with
Mr.. Buchanan as her escort; who, as
the daughter of a famous senator and
the bride of the brilliant "Pathfinder,"
was adored by the whole nation, was
never led by her honors to forget the
secret of a happy life.

The matter of road improvement is
gradually gaining advocates in this
township. At present the tax levy Of
the township for general road fund is
three mills, which amount, if expend-
ed in our own township would build
one and one half miles of stone road
each year. An additional six mills
put to this would build four and one
half miles each year, and no one
would feel the cost. This method
has been adopted in Henry township
and is very satisfactory. Our town
ship is one of the most able in the
county to take up road improvement
but has done the least in that line.

Charles Laing Herald's lecture
given in the Auditorium last Friday
evening was fully up to expectation,
The press notices which had been
printed in the JOURNAL to advertise
the lecturer were not oyerdrawn. He
more than pleased his audience and
held their close attention throughout.
Mr.. Herald is "full -blooded" Scotch
man and has many of the pronounced
traits of Scotchman. He is keen
and incisive, abrupt and witty, ar.
gumentative and convincing, eloquent
and patriotic. Even if you do not
agree with him his enthusiasm and
individuality carries you with him.
His lecture upon 'That Man" will not
soon be forgotten. The stormy
weather prevented many of the hold
ers of Course tickets from being
present.

Many people who use electric lights
wonder why their light bills increase
without apparent cause, and for that
reason it may be well to understand
that old electric bulbs consume more
current and give less light than new
bulbs.
After bulb has been used few
months it is liable to become slightly
cloudy and the current generates heat
at the expense of the light thus con
suming more current and producing
loss of lighting power. To save this
loss it is advisable to throw away the
old bulbs and put on new ones. The
new bulbs can be bought at Is to %
cents; and will save their cost in
current consumed and produce better
light. Try it and see for yourself.

NO, you don't see my children
loafing around the streets at night"
s.n. r said the janitor of
city apartment
house, according to
a writer for the Youths Companion.
ut costs me something to keep them
away from the gangs, but it's worth
the money. They're all respectable
people here on the street, you know,
and some pretty well to do. Doesn't
seem to be any need of their boys
going wrong, does there? Well, the
trouble started with letting the boys
run wild in the evenings. The janitor
of this next house didn't attend to
his business. The boys learned he
wasn't around at night, so they used
to take their boXing-gloves into his
basement and light the gas and have
great times-regular prize-fghts.
Now, that was only boys caper,
and needn't have led to any serious
harm, if the young fellows had been
taken hold of right then and there,
and handled right. When the police
man found 'em and drove 'em, pos
sibly one or two of the boys did get
a-whaling; but they went right back
to their hang-out at the corner, and
kept on scheming how to have fun.
Come warm weather, vacation time,
and the leader took a notion to jump
on train one day and have a ride.
He got out in the country and begged
his living for a day or two, and then
he hoped on another train and came
back. He had regular picnic, he
thought. All the other boys were
wild to try it. Well, one of 'em did.
He got thrown off the first time,
so he had to do it all over again.
The second time he got under the
wheels, and that was the end of
him. Mind you, all these fellows
had been picking up lots of accom-
plishments while they hung around
the corner. In the course of year
they knew how to smoke, they were
good, hard swearers, and could lie
pretty well, and because they could
do mischief all around the neighbor-
! hood and dodge the policeman, they
thought they were about as smart
as the next one. 1t happened one
day that the leader of the gang
was suffering for cigarettes, so, what
does he do but steal pair of trousers
and pawn 'em. He stole from the
wrong man, as it turned out, and his
folks couldn't settle the case. The
officers on this beat gave the boy a
bad name-and there's no denying
he was the worst of the bunch-and
the Judge sent him to Jail for 80
days. Well, there you have the years
record of six sons of decent people
One of them killed while trying to
play hobo one graduated to jail
four of 'em on the ragged edge OF
worthlessness, and all of 'em under
II years old / bought my boys
gymnasium tickets last winter" the
ianitor added. "They're playing
baseball now, and in the fall they'll
ioin a football team, if 1 have to
start one myself. They've got to
have company, and they need some
way to work off their animal spirits
and / calculate decent company ano
decent sports in decent places are
the cheapest kind"

Laughter is one of natures best
medicines, and beats pills and bitters
out of sight. Laughter brushes
down the cobwebs from the ceiling
of the brain, dusts up and sweeps out
old rusty whims and cranky notions
and gloomy forebodings, and adorns
the chambers of thought with the
beautiful pictures of hope.
