HAPPY CHILDHOOD.
Right Food Makes Happy Children Be-
cause They Are Healthy.

n
cause They Are Healthy.
Sometimes milk does not agree with
children or adults. The same thing
is true of other articles Of food. What
agrees with one sometimes does not
agree with others.
But food can be SO prepared that it
will agree with the weakest stomach.
AS an Observation-Disclosures, no matter
how weak the stomach, can eat, relish
and digest nice hot cup Of Postum
coffee with a spoonful or two of
Grape-Nuts poured in, and such COM
hination contains nourishment to carry
one a number Of hours, for almost
every particle Of it will be digested
and taken up by the system and be
made use Of.
A lady writes from the land of the
Magnolia and the mockingbird way
down in Alabama, and says: Il was
led to drink Postum because coffee
gave me sour stomach and made me
nervous. Again Postum was recon-
mended by two well-known physicians
lor my children, and I feel especially
grateful for the benefit derived.
milk does not agree with either
child, so to the eldest, aged four and
one-half years, give Postum with
plenty Of sweet cream. 1t agrees with
her splendidly, regulating her bowels
perfectly, although she is of constl-
pated habit.
For the youngest, aged two and
one-half years, 1 use one-half Postum
and one-half skinned milk. I have
not given any medicine since the chill
dren began using Postum, and they
enjoy every drop of it.
"a neighbor of mine is giving
Postum to her baby lately weaned.
with splendid results. The little fellow
Is thriving famously." Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Postum agrees perfectly with chill
dren and supplies adults with the hot,
inyigorating beverage in place of cof-
fee. Literally thousands of Americans
have been helped out Of stomach and
nervous diseases by leaving off coffee
and using Postum Food Coffee. Look

Measured by the ordinary factors,

Holiday and the clothing strike inter
ruptlons had little effect upon the dis
trlDutlon of commodities, the volume
more than equaling that of the same
period last year. Railroad earnings
reflect gain, the new tonnage con-
s1st1ng largely Of finished products and

consumption.
Lake traffic, now closing for the sea-
son, has been much stimulated lately
In the movement Of ore, lumber and
fuel. Manufacturers find continued
growth in demands, and while a sharp
advance is felt in the cost of produc-
ton current undertakings are readily
negotiated.
Railroad specifications are more
clearly defined for equipment of con-
siderable magnitude, and no diminu-
ton appears in contemplated building
requirements, the latest plans includ-
ing various transportation and COM
mercial enterprises. Structural ma
terial is seen to be in unusual request,
with prices tending higher, particu-
larly for cement and stone. and pine

whole country, is as follows:
Cold weather is needed to move re-
tail stocks of winter clothing, dry
goods and shoes, recorders for which
from jobbers are not brisk. On the
other hand, the trade in holiday goods
has begun we'll, and good feeling as
regards this line is coupled with conf
dence as to trade in spring fabrics,
which is proceeding better than a
year ago. Manufacturing industry is
active in most lines the country over,
winter employment in the iron and
allied trades is assured, and labor is
better employed than year ago at
this date Holding by farmers is cred
tied with affecting collections at sew
eral Southern points, but, as whole,
payments are better than year ago.
The strength of manufactured prod
ucts is notable. Iron and steel have
been active and strong in all lines.
Pig iron shows a few advances on last
week, foundry iron noting gains of 90
cents per ton. A further advance Of
wire goods is looked for in December
A strong feature in connection with
the iron trade is the activity in and
strength of hardware in all markets
A notable feature in the heavier lines
his week was the free buying Of
bridge material by railroads. These
companies are also buying cars free
~, and plates feel this influence, and
also the reports of improved condi-
tions in the shipbuilding trades. Lake
builders are reported to have six
months orders ahead All the other
metals are strong.

The WARM WEATHER
Bringing Out Snake and Fish
Stories.
Very Risky TO Regulations For
VeraCIty Even When True.

]. NJ. Cathcart, who travels for the
lUrbana Wholesale grocery, was in
town this week. While stopping in
oscar McLaughlin's grocery, he told
a little experience that he had dur.
ing his two years stay in Californis
recently. One Sabbath while stop
ping in a small town, he went to a
nearby church, and going in little
late found all the back seats reserved.
Taking the seat next to the front
one he leaned over to put his hat
down, and was Mortified to see large
rattlesnake coiled on the seat in
front. He realized at once that any
commotion might start the snake
on a dangerous trip through the
church, resulting in panic in which
number of people might be bitten
b. the snake. With the cold sweat
standing out on his forehead he look
ed around and catching the eye of a
man who seemed prominent in the
church, beckoned to him, and quietly
Explained the situation, telling him
to step up to the preacher and if he
was willing Cathcarth would shoot
the snake. The minister took in the
situation, nodded his head, and Mr..
Cathcart thrusting his revolver over
| the back of the seat as far as he
dared, blew the reptiles head Off.
The congregation didn't know wheth-
er Cathcart was shooting at the min
lister or the organist, and jumped to
their feet in panic, but the minis.
ter explained the situation and
praised Mr.. Cs. GOODNESS and good
| Judgment: and the snake when held
up measured four feet in length.
Mr.. c. says he don't expect people to
believe this snake story though it is
true.
Mr.. Mclaughlin, said ''Weu l be-
lieve it but you won't find many who
will. had little experience, my
self, in telling fish story once, that
came near running my reputation for
veracity. Some years since was re
turning from the west in company
with DIR. Covington. At Lawrence,
Kansas, looking out the window
saw two men carrying a fish suspend
ed from pole on their shoulders
the tail of the fish dragging on the
ground. attempted to call the
Doctors attention but before he
could get to the window, the train
had moved along and the Doctor al
ways laughed at me when / said the

the story several times, but alway:

Wallace drug store 1 told it, and

that fish. was attending school in
Lawrence at that time, and remem

by the men who caught it, An elder
in his church, DIR. A. Elder, who wai
standing near, said, "And you say

A Peculiar Case of Typhoid.

Chester Williams, who came from
Columbus before the holidays and
at once came down with typhoid
has exemplified, very plainly what
has been noted in numerous other
cases. the irregular character of this
Columbus type of fever. On March
eth, after period of normal temper
ature his fever ran up to 1C6 and with
in "a hours dropped to 96 clear fall
of 10 degrees. And for a week re-
mained subnormal ranging from
90 2-5 to 81 So. And with the excep-
tion of about "a hours has been sub
normal ever since.
Such a temperature record is re-
markable to say the least. The
treatment has been directed to sup
ply artificial heat and food calculat-
ed to restore normal thermal condi'
tions.
The patient is now apparently on,
of danger.

Upset in the Noun
tdinS of Monroe

Fabius Green and son, Ben, of Mon
roe township, had an upset, going
home from DIR. Wanzer's sale that
came near being serious for Ben.
They were leading a horse behind
the buggy, that they had bought at
the sale, when the horse they were
driving scared, ran into the side
ditch, and upset the buggy. Fabius
being young and spry hoped out
without being hurt, but the son was
caught by the buggy and pinned to
the ground. The horse fortunately
was soon controlled, the buggy lift
ed up, and Ben was on his feet again,
and ready for duty in the sugar camp
last week. He prefers a good run in
the sugar camp to bad one on the
pike. anyhow.

Military Social at
Memorial Hall.

The Woman's Relief Corps will give
a military social at Memorial Hall
Friday evening. at which a program
of literary and musical numbers and
military drill will be presented.
Games will be provided, and it is the
intention to make the affair very
pleasant socially. 1t is hoped to
make a success financially, also, and
the price of admission will be ten
cents.
The corps treasury has been
heavily drawn upon this winter in
extending relief to the needy, and
this social is given for the benefit of
the relief fund.
Refreshments will be served and
the cause is one which will certainly
recommend itself to all as worthy OF
patronage.

death OF s. NJ. Thompson.

Daily Examiner.
Samuel Martin, son OF Amos and
Ruth Thompson, died at. the family
home in the western suburb Wednes-
day morning at 9 after long illness
from consumption. He was born in
Zsnesfield, the second Of family OF
eight, Sept. l, 1916.
Zanesfield was his home until he
was 80. He followed the shoe business,
and married Miss Hattie Herbert there,
and moving to Paulding, Ohio, after
his wiie's death, continued in the
shoe business and later engaged in
the real estate business. While q
resident OF Paulding NJ. Thompson
married Miss Nora Williams and to
them one daughter, Carde, the wife Of
John X. Milroy, was born, and the
wife and daughter both survive. Two
brothers, s. X. and Levi, both OF this
city, also survive.
About IL years ago the deceased
came to Belleiontaine and engaged
with his brother, s. X. Thompson, in
the conduct OF the Logan House. Re-
firing from that he engaged in real
estate business and followed it until
his health failed him entirely some
five or six months ago. He was very
successful and accumulated comfort
able fortune.
On Friday last Mr.. and Mrs. Thomp'
son returned from Indianapolis where
they had been several weeks in vain
search OF relief for Mr.. Thompson.
During the long months OF illness,
patiently borne, every means possible
was resorted to for the benefit OF the
health OF the departed, but there was
no permanent help, and the end came
not Unexpectedly, bringing great sor-
row to the family and friends. Few
men were more benevolent than Mr..
Thompson, and his left hand never
knew what his right hand did. In
his family he was fond and indulgent.
Mr.. Thompson was an accomplished
business man and regarded as one OF
the most careful and able financiers
in Belleiontaine. lie was OF gener-
Gus and kindly nature and many an
unfortunate has received substantial
aid at his hands. He was in failing
health SO long that his activity had
ceased several years, but before that
time he was engaged in many import
ant enterprises. His home was one Of
comfort, luxury and hospitality.
The funeral will be held at the FAM
| lily home Friday afternoon at 2.

Dedication of New Phild-
delphid Lutheran Church

The dedication of the new Philadel-
phia Lutheran church, in Union
township, was largely attended, tax
ing the capacity of the house. DIR.
Cutler, president of the wittenberg
Synod, who preached the dedicatory
sermon and Rev. n. ]. Hadley. who
preached in the evening were closely
listened to, and their sermons highly
spoken of. The pastor Rev. A. d.
Gilbert told the congregation that a
little more money was wanted to pay
for the church, and s233 was thrown
in collection, which more than paid
out the shortage. The new church
cost s2,C00 and is credit to the con-
gregation, and the community.

New Pumping Station.

Architect Gotwald met with the
members of the City Council, inform
ally, after the regular meeting Tues
day evening, and rough sketch of
plans for the new Water Works sta
tion was presented by him.
The cost of the building If erected
according to this plan will be much
less than the sum originally asked
by the Service Board. and it is now
thought that these plans will be the
ones used. The Service Board will
soon be asked, it is thought, to re
ceive bids for the construction, and
if satisfactory in amount an appro'
priation will be made by the Council
to build the same.
