Who Was Sally Lunna

Every one knows what a Sally
Lunn is, but few people have any
idea how this particularly nice
kind oftea cake got its name.
Sally Lunn was a Bath celebrity
who kept a cake shop which was
a favorite resort of both youth
and age in the old west country
town in England.
Sally originally carried out
her cakes, morning and evening,
in basket with white cover.
Later on her small shop in Lilli-
put alley became tavorite haunt,
and Dalmer a baker and musi-
clan, seeing that it was very
good thing, bought the business,
composed a song and set it to
music. This song became pop
ular street ditty, barrows were
used to distribute the new cele
brated cakes, and Dalmer finally
retired on the profits of the bust,
ness.

The Preacher Needed

A church in Texas advertises
for preacher ofthis kind:
"We want a pastor, and we
haven't got any rocking chair or
sofa for him to sit on. We want
a man that's got plenty of grace
and grit, and amt afraid to work.
We don't care how smart he is In
book learning and theology, just
SO he has got good case of old
fashioned religion, like they used
to get at the mourners bench,
when it was fashionable to shout
if a fellow like it-and he always
feels like it if he gets sure
enough case. We want man
like Abraham of old; when we
call on him it matters not how
dark the night, nor how deep
the river, he will cry aloud:
Here am T. The field is weedy
and there's lots OF grubbing to be
done; therefore, we want man
that's ripe in experience, rich in
grace and has all the book learn
ing that's useful, one that iswill-
ing to get between the pIow lines
and drive the gospel plow from
early morn till dewy eve; one
that don't care to tread on brus-
sells carpets, dine on angel food
and be society pet"

How it Happened.

The Independent has told why
Douglas, a Democrat, was elected
governor of Massachusetts,, why
johnson, a Democrat, was elected
governor of Minnesota, why
Toole, Democrat was elected
governor of Montana. and each
of the states named cast their
electoral vote for the Republican
candidates. Condensed, the rea-
sons were that each of these
Democratic governors stood
squarely for something; Douglas
for the taking away from the
trusts the shelter of the tariff;
johnson because he represented
the best type of American man.
hood; Toole because he repres-
ented reform legislation. Joseph
w. Folk, Democratic governor
elect of Missouri, carried his state
by $4,000 while Roosevelt got
the electoral vote by about TO-
600. Folk also stood for some
thing and that something was
honesty in public office, and the
punishment of those who are
dishonest. Every newspaper
and magazine reader knows the
fight Folk made as prosecuting
attorney of st. Louis against the
boodlers, and he was elected gov
ernor because he stood for hon.
est men as the administrators of
the public service.
Mr.. Folk had to fight bitter
campaign waged on him in his
own party, SO that in st, Louis
alone probably 10000 votes usu-
ally classed as Democratic were
cast against him. And this is
not all. He had to fight the
power of a corrupt and perfectly
organized ring. He had to fight
the rich and influential men that
he had sent to Jail. He had to
fight the trusts.-Helena bnde.
