OUR HERO, TEDDY.

( u Is not because we call him Teddy,
Or yet President Roosevelt;
And not because he holds the Office
That by Others has been filed.
MS not because he is so mighty,
That this nation loves his name:
Because he possesses the same stuff
That has won Americas fame.
Not for his love, or sport at hunting.
Or brings down the biggest game,
i kbr there are great rsny others
BESIDES Teddy. does the same.
In the tempest to free cor Cuba,
m the fight at San Jupn.
We hnve hero in our Teddy.
AS a soldier. and man.
! Now we can see him in the White
House,
As we knew him on the plane;
Branding rascals with redhot irons,
Sends them home disgraced, and
shamed,
We see him stalk the great coal
barons,
In their struggle, in their greed
They would prevent the toiling miner.
Their own little ones to feed.
again we see him at old Portsmouth,
Amidst the worlds gaze, and glare,
We see his feet upon the dragon.
In his hands he holds the bear.
Ind there we see him take the cudgel.
When the ENJOYS shake their heads;
Sow We know the struggle is ended,
For they heard what TEDDY said
Net together, try 1t over"
Then we saw the monster shake,
THE both of you must stop your aght-
ing.
Ear humanity's dear sake"
nth joy we see him lash the grafters,
IN his many styles and ways;
.snEr see them scurry of to shelter,
From our Teddys honest gaze.
We see in him our common Lincoln,
And cur Jefferson as well;
md by him stand ten million voters;
That will nelp him give them HI.

Judoes Wanted Pay.

Election day for school trustee in
township II was passed Saturday with
out opening the polls. This was the
unprecedented condition of affairs ow-
ing to a lack of information as to
whether members of the board would
receive pay for their services. The
polling place was to have been the
Stewartville town hall, and the can
didate was a member of the Lees fam
lily, living south of Rock river. Joe
Heck carried the registration book to
the polling place and awaited the ar
rival of a clerk. No one appeared to
serve in that capacity, and the impress
sion prevailed that there was no money
in the job. All who were appealed to
TO serve declined to do so gratuitously.
Then Mr.. Heck gave up and returned
home, unable to perform the entire
functions of the board himself. COun-
ty Superintendent Ferguson was sought
for advice but it was learned that he
had gone to Cordova for the day. In
township IS, where the board was sit
ting at the city hall, the members I'M
derstand they are to be paid for their
work.

Expect to Stay In.

At the meeting of the members of
the Scandal Mutual Insurance COM
pany it was unanimously decided to
join the new company provided that
there would only be one mortuary
fund. ]. B. Oakleaf was asked to ex-
plain the situation and what in his
opinion should be done. He thought
that the management already had suffi-
cient proxies of the policy holders,
which number about 5000, to insure
the transfer of the present policy hold
ers to the new company and that it
would be useless to oppose it, for moth
ing would be gained by opposition;
that the members would be better off
by going into the new company, for
the reason that the present contract
with the Scandinavian Mutual Aid of
Galesburg would have to be carried
out and that the state insurance depart
ment would compel the company to
live up to the letter of the contract,
and that the new company would be
organized on the old line plan and
would be able to write different kinds
of policies. which would bring into the
company the young people who desired
endowment and other like policies.
The present management will insist
upon the election of the board of di-
rectors of the new company by the
present policy holders, so that the
management of the affairs of the new
company would be practically in the
nands OF the present policy holders.

PRESBYTERY MEETS
TOMORROW AT ALEXIS
Question of Uniting the Cumber-
land Presbyterian
Church.

Tomorrow the regular session OF the
Rock River presbytery will be held at
Alexis, III. The session of the presby-
terry will open tomorrow evening, and
continue over Wednesday evening
Broadway Presbyterian church will be
represented by the pastor, Rev. w. 5.
Marquis, DR.. J. w. Stewart represent
ing the church session, and Mrs. H. A.
Weld, and Mrs. S. c. Taylor the Wom-
ans Missionary society.
This meeting of the pTesbytery is OF
particular interest, as the queS
lion of consolidating the Pres
byterian church and the Cum
berland Presbyterian church is to be
considered. In 1910 the faction of the
church composing the Cumberland
church divided from the main Presby-
terrain church, ard formed separate
organization. Last spring the two gen
eral assemblies of the churches voted
to unite the two churches under the
one general government. This action
does not become binding until it is rat
flied by all of the presbyteries OF the
two churches. There is no opposition
to the proposition, and it is expected
to carry at the River River meeting.
Mrs. H. a. Weld will appear on the
program. and respond to the greetings
to visiting delegates. Rev. Marquis
W i'll take prominent part in the 0usl-
ness session of the presbytery. The
retiring moderator is Rev. Tidball, OF
Hamlet.

Burned by Gasoline.

Mrs. A. J. Burkes. 204 West Locust

the lower body and limbs Saturday by
the explosion of a gasoline stove at her
home. She turned on the valve to the
gasoline stove and struck match. A
terrific explosion followed which was
heard all over the house. 1t appears
that during the night the gasoline
leaked from the range and had spread
considerably over its surface. The
woman's screams attracted the other
inmates of the house, as well as the
neighbors, and the flames were quickly
extinguished. but not until Mrs. Burkes
had been severely burned.

This is to You.

| will respectfully call the attention
of the readers of this paper, especially
those who put out fruit, shade and
ornamental trees and Towering shrubs
to protect and beautify their homes.
You are interested in trees, of course
you are, everyone is. The most
interesting tree in the world is tree
that will grow. The best trees for this
latitude are northern grown trees.
Why? Because there are no others
SO hardy in resisting the cold winters
of the north and dry summers, so
early to bloom and bear fruit. Why?
Because the season of growth is short
and the season of rest and wood ripen-
ing is long. Purity of blood in
animals. A successful breeder of
fancy cattle maintains his standard by
constantly selecting the truest type of
the breed. Just so The Jewell Nursery
Co. of Lake City, Minnesota, during
a period of thirty-seven years of pains
taking culture brought their stock to
the highest standard of excellence,
purity and vigor. Buy the best, that
which has been tested. Foreign stuff
that is hawked over the country by
Tree Tramps like cheap machinery, is
always disappointing even worse than
that, as you are obliged to labor and
wait four or five years to find out at
the end that you have been miserably
and rascally sold.
Geo. H. Stout, agent for the Jewell
Nursery, will call on you in the near
future and be glad to take yonr order
for the best nursery stock that money
can buy.
Yours respectfully,
Geo. III. Stout,
Sank Centre, Mimi.
