THIS Man DID HIS Best.

They were laying away the body
Of q greatsoldier. People talked Of
his noble deeds, his courage, his
fidelity and high sense of duty. They
were sorry, and it is well that they
should strew flowers on his bier and
weep. But when you stop to think
Of it, what a host Of good soldiers
there are in this world
You heard the band playing a
dirge, and didn't notice that other
little funeral procession vending its
mournful way TO the cemetery. In
the hearse was the body of Thomas
Pierce, a section man. and in the
carriage behind were q wife and
three children, who loved him as
devotedly as ever a general was
loved.
Yousee, this section man did Che
best he could. Destiny didn't cut
him Quito lead an army. He didn't
worry because the President got a
big salary. He did his best in bis
position, and dignfiied it. He was
true, honest and faithful. When be
went home the children were there
to meet him. He could hear " Papa's
coming" There was q scampering
of feet, some hugs and kisses, and
Thomas Pierce became q king, and
for the moment as happy as any
king the SUN shines on.
IF you never had a little one climb
into your arms, clasp her chubby
arms about your neck and say, II
love you, papa" you can't know
how near to heaven it is possible TO
get in this world, or how that same
firm clasp will make you forget your
&ches and burdens and troubles.
Thomas Pierce, section man, kneW.
He was the lover ofhis wife and the
chum of his children. People sid
he "made lovely horne" He did.
1t wasn't q brown-st0ne front.
There were no servants quarters no
banquet halls, nopictures by the old
masters.
But content was there1 and CON
tent and love and real affection
within four walls and under a leaky
roof are better than heartless ex-
istence in a palace. The life ofthe
Pierces was harmony. Their tomor-
rows were much like their yester-
days. Yet there was no monot6hy
for them. They made light of their
sorrows and shared their joys.
Yes, Thomas Pierce "made a love
ly home" Early he found the secret
of happiness. He Made the most Of
his talents; he worked hard, he didn't
worry. He made his family the
custodians ofall the human sunshine
his good heart possessed.
Heis dead. He was true Ameri-
can gentleman, one of a type that
can never be too numerous, and the
world can well afford to sympathize
with the family ofthis good soYdier,
who did his best, at work and in his
home.lSt. Louis Chronicle.

Nov be Good.

There is "a class of newspapers
that are continually poking fun at
the formers at what they are pleas
ed to call their ignorance, but the
fact remains that our farmers are
about as shrewd q set of men to
deal with as can be found. For
genuine downright suckers to bite
at every bait that is held out, com
mend us to the cities. If you don't
believe it just quietly stand by
some evening when a street fakir is
holding down "a dry goods box
with q lot of sflide goods and see
him take in the gudgeons. The
Truth protests against this habit Of
ridiculing the honest farmers. 1t is
newspaper work ofthesame caliber
as that done on the city dailies in
Chicago by a lot of dude reporters
who could not conduct a weekly
country paper for two consecutive
weeks. When they run out of ma
terial to write about they write
about the people of Indiana, and
regalc their disgusted readers with
tales about Hoosiers from "Hoop-
pole township, Posey county Inji-
any" where as a matter of fact the
average citizen has forgotten more
in a month, of the ways of the
world and good hard. common
horse sense. than a whole tribe Of

The wheat crop in this county is

tury. Land that has formerly pro-
duoed rs or 30 bushels in former
years, now 7 to 10 bushels. Farms
that have produced less will not
make seed this year. The shortage
of the crop is attributed to the Hes

POWDER MILLS SHUT DOWN
Scarcity of Coal Forces Pleasant Prairie
Plant to Shut DOwn-6O Men out of Work.

Scarcity of Coal Forces Pleasant Prairie
Plant to Shut Down so Men out of Work.
The Latin and Rand Powder Mills
IN the town of Pleasant Prairie was
forced to shut down in most of it's de-
partments on last Saturday night and
sixty men employed in the plant are
out of empoyrnent. The managers state
that the shut down is an indefinite one
and is caused by the scarcity of coal.
The company laid in large supply of
coal at the opening of the season but
the demand has been so large that the
company has been forced to keep the
mills running overtime and the coal
supply is well nigh exhausted.
Efforts to secure coal have met with
failure and the company is now forced
to shut down the plant until this coal
supply can be secured.
There is sufficient coal in the yards
of the company to keep some of the
machinery going but the greater
number of the departments will be
stopped entirely.
Agents of the company are now in
the coal district seeking a new coal
supply.
