==f5a;zz;zzg oT the shale mills in Ellis
county, the Ellis Headlight says:
"All mining business was suspended
at Gold City during harvest. The
most of the inhabitants were out
pitching wheat, and the rest were
in the shade Matching out new
schemes" There is, probably, no
place outside of Kansas in the world
where men would stop mining gold
at the rate of SAT a minute for the
sake of earning $1.5O day in the
harvest field. There are other states,
however, which would consider them
selves lucky If they had class of
miners who would on occasion turn

Jennie Comstock.
Years and years ago when Ohio was
all covered with ice the Eskimos came
to live here.
They liked to go fishing and hunt
ing.
BY and by the ice went out and
then the Esllimos went up north
where there were plenty of ice and
sea animals.
The next people that came were the
Mound Builders.
They made their homes in the
ground.
Sometimes they build their houses
half as high as tree.
There is one IN the southern part
of Ohio.
The Mound Builders made it.
us shape like snake, in it's mouth
their is mud egg.
The next people that came were
the Indians. They wore beed all over
their dresses.
rhe last people that came were the
white.
They came over from England.
Some were French and some were
English. The English wanted the
land and SO did the French because
it was nice for fruit and vegetables.
So the French and English had a
war the English won.
The way the Mound Builders made
their was to sharpen two stones to-
gether and fasten them to stick.
Fort Meigs used to be one of the
best war grounds in OHIO.
Some of the people thought that the
houses the Mound Builders made were
to bury the dead. Ohio is in the
Northern Section.
President Mckinley used to live in
Ohio but he is dead.

According to the Maumee Advance

According to the Maumee Advance
Era the Maumee telephone subscrib-
ers are kicking on the very poor tele-
phone service given in that city.
Here is case where that city ''bit off
it's own nose" in refusing to be con
nected with the Perrysburg telephone
station and thus have the benefit of u
FIST class service locally, and the very
best long distance line in the country.
BY such an arrangement both towns
would have been greatly benefited in
many ways and neither village could
have been injured in any respect,
and all on account of foolish idea of
independence which some of our
neighbors refused to change for the
betterment of both towns. Another
evidence of that same foolishness is
shown in the establishing of two
elecitic light plants for the two towns
when one plant could have supplied
light for both villages, and both
towns would have again been bene-
fed. Neither town can possibly in
jure the other and each could help
the other if little sound common
sense was used. Quarrels among
peighbors benefit no one.

A magazine called Municipal Affairs

A magazine called Municipal Affairs
says civic pride is stimulated in chill
dren through the public schools. Our
public schools stand as high as any in
the world. All that can be done along
the lines for which they were intended
is well and completely done. By law
children between the ages of seven
and ID years are compelled to attend
school daily. 1t is possible, therefore,
to lay here foundations for an interest
in the aesthetics of life, to create a
widespread interest in all that con-
Germs the construction and decoration
of the city, and to cultivate and
arouse civic pride, which is of para
mount Importance in all communities.
Our public school buildings should be
made veritable temples in all that goes
to influence the sensitive minds of
children.

All men are victims of habit in some
form or other. One of the most not
u ,. able of useless and
foolish habits is
OP"" "e"' that which seems
always to be seeking something upon
which to employ the hands. The st.
Paul Globe tells of little incident
which aptly illustrates this: After
counting that "a out of 80 passers-by
had pulled wisp out of some one of
the many bales of excelsior piled up
on the sidewalk, the travelling sales
man looked up at the proprietor OF
the excelsior place, and catching his
eye, they both began TO laugh. "How
many does your count show?" he
asked the salesman. "I noticed you
have been counting them, same as do
sometimes" And when the salesman
told him the proprietor remarked that
it was about the usual average, al
though he had often counted as many
as 10 out of 20 passers-by who could
not resist the impulse to take pull at
the bales. at is very funny thing.
What makes people do that?" asked
the young salesman. "Well, l don't
know, really. just know this, how
don't mind to have about Is to 25
pounds of my goods wasted every day
just because lot Of people have no
control over their hands, but just look
at that sidewalk! You'd think it
hadn't been swept for month,
wouldn't you? Well, that sidewalk has
been swept four times this morning.
AS say, it isn't the stuff that's wasted
1 care about, but I don't want the
bother of keeping the sidewalk free
from excelsior, as my neighbor here
next door insists when everybody that
passes throws some down for my men
to sweep away, and if don't have it
done then my neighbors fight with me
about it. / have twice had to go to
court about it. It's the same thing
with hay, straw or hair for mattresses.
Some people, even, can't stop them
selves from pulling billboards all to
pieces as they walk along. No, I
couldn't say what makes people do it.
My boolkeeper inside there is quite a
dab of phrenology, and he says it's the
bump of destructiveness that makes
people do that. But, then, what makes
me do it? amt anxious to waste my
own goods, and often take pull at
a bale myself when amt thinking. I
guess it's human nature, that's all.
You're going, are you? Well, so long.
Drop in early next week. 1 expect I'll
have something for you then. Now,
just look at him." exclaimed the pro-
prietor, with grim smile, as the sales
man walked away. "There he goes,
too," and the salesman, passing by one
of the bales, pulled out generous
wisp and was absent-mindedly crumb-
ling it away in his hand as he walked
off.

A new use has been discovered for
the artillery service of the United
States. A few days ago, during
practice work of the guns on the
coast Of New Jersey, the cannonad-
ing resulted in the destruction of
caterpillars, which had become an
alarming pest to the fruit raisers in
that section. Now, observes the Chi
cago Sun, if any farmer is bothered
with caterpillars, let him send for
few Krupp guns and have them
fired off near his trees and it will be
all up with the "cats."
