The Crime Of Splitting.


To touch upon the personal habits OF
people requires the courage OF those who
blindly rush where angels fear to tread /;
for nothing Is ever more deeply resented,
especially by the masculine world, which
regards the most cautious suggestion as
understandable interference and never
gives its unqualified approval to the phil
anthropic efforts of the Woman's Chris
tan Temperance Union even.
What Shall not the Lords Of Creation
eat and drink what they please, and spit
where they choose No, says the w. G..
I. u. to the first query, and no, declares
the Association for the Relief and Control
OF tuberculosis to the second. Where
upon, the lords get beastly drunk TO show
their independence, and spit like cats to
show how mad they are.
Expectorating at all times and places
is a dlstinctively masculine trait, and one
that develops early. The first thing a
three year-old does when he finds himself
in diminutive trousers is TO stick his
hands into his pockets, plant his chubby
legs as far apart as possible and deliberate
ly spit. There he is-a man in miniature,
and he doesn't play with girls any more
il he can help it.
The habit grows as he grows until
wherever he goes he leaves trail of more
or less poisonous sputum behind him,
and wherever he pauses for moment
his immediate neighborhood becomes a
nauseating spectacle.
The condition of the sidewalks, the
floors and platforms OF the places where
the public mostly congregates are not
only filthy and disgusting TO the sight
but are menace to health. IL we are TO
keep our village free from the white
plague, which has once in a while made
It's appearance among us, this haphazard
and promiscuous splitting must be given
. h.. I'M sfs4r
through which feet travel and long skirts
trail, and on account OF carelessness,
which is little short Of criminal in view
OF what is at stake, injection spreads.
The sidewalks in particular are claimed
BY the splitter as his oRn, and their
appearance at times is sufficient to make
the pedestrian exclaim with the psalmist,
"Oh, that / had wings like a dove, for
then / would fly away and be at rest. !"
Since none OF us are able to see wings
even sprouting on each others backs,
way is sQueamishly picked over the con-
crete, and load OF dirt and tuberculous
germs is collected on the shoes and farther
spread about.
Another feature OF this habit is the
utter indifference Of its devotees as to
their surroundings and the positions Of
other people in the landscape. They line
up against a brick block and eXpectorate
across the sidewalk without any regard
to the passersby. II some unfortunate
happens along at the wrong time and Is
accidentally hit by the discharge, the
incident is treated as joke, or the victim
is made to feel that he or she mostly she)
ought to apologize for being in the way.
There is no possibility of course that
this endless flow of saliva will be checked
"A masculine prerogatlve is not to be
given up for death or distruction-but II
is respectfully suggested that the spit
tiers provide themselves with cuspidors
to be worn around their necks like lock-
cts.

Birthday Anniversary.

The Lyndonville Journal in its last
issue contained the following notice OF
a gathering October p at the home in
Lyndon of Rev. r. q. Rainey, a former

at his church in Lyndonville, to the
number OF about sixty, were conveyed
to his home 1T the Corner by Messrs.
Downey and Parker, to remind him that
another milestone OF life's journey had
been passed.
"The early part OF the evening was
spent in extending TO the pastor kindly
greetings, interspersed with music bot h
vocal and instrumental
"While preparation was being made
to serve refreshments, a poem composed
for the occasion by Mr.. William Bailey
was read by him, followed by the pre-
sentation of a purse OF money from the
parishioners and friends OF Mr.. Bainey.
Mr.. Rainey responded in an earnest
manner, expressing his sincere regard for
his friends and his appreciation OF the
kindness shown him and his family.
delicious cake and coffee were then
served and little time was devoted to
sOciability, games, etc, after which the
company, bidding their pastor a "God-
speed" and Good night, returned to
their homes with the feeling OF having
spent an exceedingly pleasant evening"

The second entertainment in the Ran
dolph course will be the Russell Dramatic
company in "The Middleman" Nov. II.
That this performance may be pleasur-
ably anticipated is the opinion of the
Hartford Telegram, which speaks OF II in
the following terms:-
"Iarge and enthusiastic audiences wit
messed Louis j. Russelrs production OF
"The Middlemanh at the Hartford opera
house. Mr.. Russell's Interpretation OF the
character Of Cyrus Blenkarn, the aged in
yentor, who gave the discoveries Of a life
time to his employer without remunera-
ton, left nothing 10 be desired. No one
who witnessed Mr.. Russells handling Of
this character can doubt that he is one OF
the most accomplished actors OF the day.
He was ably supported by the other mem
bers OF the company.
"Harry w. Reid as Joseph Chandler,
Ralph Brown as Batty Todd, and William
A. Wolbert as Jesse Pegg, were particular
~ effective. Charles j. Toole has never
appeared to greater advantage than be did

Death Of Mrs. M. K. Smith.

The Leader and Review of Onarga, Ill.,,
contained in recent issue the following
obituary notice OF Mrs. NJ. X. Smith, for
many years a resident Of Randolph, living
near the Harlow place and removing from
here to Chicago:
"Ella o. Pond was born in Rochester,

member till her death, transferring her
mem bership from Rochester to Chicago,
and thence to Onarga little more than a
year ago.
s'She was educated in the State Normal
School at Randolph Center, VT, from
which institution she was graduated in
the class OF 1874. From that time she Was

children from Chicago in 1902 and imme-
diately identified herself with the NJ. +.
church at Onarga, attending all the serv-
ices her health would warrant. She was
a devout Christian and faithful to the end.

in health and in six months commenced
TO fail rapidly. Sept. 30 at O'Clock in the
morning the summons came.
