Tommy Pomeroy's pneumonia led
TO discussion at the sewing club be-
tween an advocate Of mustard plas-
ters and a believer in cold water ap-
plications
What a variety of cures there are"
remarked Miss Everett, pleasantly.
with a meaning look at the others.

tened to help in steering conversation
away from the belligerents. you've
kept yourself so young, Mrs. Glen,
you must have something interesting
to contribute on cures"
The old lady thus addressed was a
recent conner, but it was gradually
dawning on the community that they
had a saint among them-one Of the
unobtrusive, happy, healthy kind.
Children were already calling her
"Aunty Glen"
do you believe in mustard?" de-
handed the determined advocate.
For those that it benefits, yes"
said Mrs. Glen, gently.
But tell us how you have kept
WE'LL" hastily interposed Miss Everett.
Il don't mind telling, but I guess
you'll think it's funny kind Of cure"
Once, years ago, / had a dreadful
headache. I hadn't slept wink the
night before-I was grieving about
friend that hadn't treated me right.
Il was just brooding away, going
over and over in my mind what I'd
say to Mehitabel Record some day,
when l saw that big grudge was
growing right up inside Of me. Now

as hard as I could, and pretty soon !
just loved Mehitabel Record, no mat
ter what she'd DONE"
The needles were motionless. The
speaker, although flushing under the
gaze Of many eyes, continued:
"And when I'd thoroughly forgiven
Mehitabel-why, my headache was
gone, and felt nice all over. It set
me to thinking. After that, whenever
had an ache or pain, practiced go

asked the minister's Wife, softly, "to

Dear me, now said Aunty Glen.
"Everybody's always treated me so
nice, l ran out of folks to forgive
long ago."
"How did you manage your cure
then?"
"Oh, along about the same time I
ran out Of aches and pains, too. I
haven't lost day in bed in forty-fve
years."
There was a pause. Miss Everett,
with shining eyes, broke the silence:
Ladies, l move q vote Of thanks
TOTO dear Aunty Glen, for a bit Of
very deep and very dear philosophy.
And I move, also, that we adopt her
cure and practice it-with mustard
plasters or without, as each one likes"

Over the Line With Dad.

a From the Topeka State Journal.
W could be boy again.
x On the wings Of fancy loose,
Free from the cares that make us
men,
In my dear old dads caboose;
or all there was I now recall
That made my boy heart glad,
! wish that l might go again
Over the line with dad.
Ohums with the brakemen laugh and
joke,
Ride on the engine awhile,
Washing away the CRIME and smoke,
Standing up straight in the aisle;
Climbing up on the counter high,
o, what a treat for lad!
Coffee, sandwich and custard pie
Over the line with dad
VT
Sit way up in the lookout, too,
With an eye on the jostling cars,
Climbing there in the night to view
The way of the lanterned stars;
Struggled close to the truest friend,
That ever a fellow had,
Wishing the trip might never end
) Over the line with dad
I grudge no one the train de luxe,
With its splendid woods and brass,
For fond keep in memory's books
1; A record none may surpass;
Ah, could only by magic ruse,
Take any trip to be had,
I'd rather ride in that old caboose,
Over the line with dad.
The old caboose has gone long since,
And it's crew has whistled the sky,
Fancy still with it's radiant tints
| I11umines the days gene by;
And when Gods caller comes round
I for me,
Ny heart shall be far from sad,
II only know that I'm to go
y Over the line with dad!

METCALF LIKELY TO RESIGN
Secretary of Commerce and Labor Is
DispIeased by President

WASHINGTON, July 3.-Now it is
asserted that Secretary Metcalf of the
department of commerce and labor will
when the summer wanes, throw up his
job as cabinet officer-all on account
of the summary directions that were
given him by the president, by reason
of which the secretary was compelled
to issue orders to his subordinates that
they must deal leniently with john
Chinaman."
1t is asserted that Mr.. Metcalf did
not issue the order without showing
the president plainly that he did not
wish to do so because ne felt that the
situation was one that should be dealt
with another way than that decided
upon by the president.
Secretary Metcalf comes from the
state of California. He feels as does
every Californian on the Chinese ex-
clusion problem. He is probably the
best equipped man in the cabinet tc
talk on this subject, for he knows the
dangers that underlie the Roosevelt

OVER HALF OF CHURCH INCOME
Tainted Money" Man Gives rs Cents
for Every Dollar Collected

CLEVELAND, July 3.-When John
D. Rockefeller reaches for that yellow
wrappered roll in his left hand hip
pocket, digs into the middle of it, eX-
humes a S. note and deposits it in the
plate at Euclid Avenue Baptist church
he taxes himself 1915 besides giving
up the S..
The fiscal arrangements existing
between Rockefeller and his Cleveland
church stipulate that for every dollar
of income received by the church
through collections Or other sources
Rockefeller shall give IS cents. This
plan means that approximately 43 per
cent Of the cost of maintaining the
church and it's various institutions and
benevolences falls on Rockefeller.
The revenue of tn church last year
was nearly $4,000 of which about ST.
900 was spent in the support of the
foreign missions and other benevo-
lences. The other half went to the
support of the church itself.
