The Pope of Rome is quoted
thus: "The more we read the
gospel, the stronger our faith be-

what do white rabbits most like to
eat?" Almost everything. They are
not in the least fussy as to diet. For
that reason and for their attractive
appearance and playful ways they
make excellent pets. Always have an
ample supply Of good, clean hay and
oats before them. Give green food
once or twice day and only in guam
titles that will all be eaten. If at any
feeding they do not eat all you give
them, omit the next feeding and then
give less thereafter. They are fond Of
almost any kind Of grain or vegetable
in fact, anything that COW or a
sheep will eat-and they will devour al
most any wild plant except poison Ivy
or wild parsnip. Among the favorite
delicacies Of the summer are clover,
dandelion, plantain, blackberry briers
and blackberry leaves.
Give them water once or twice day.

you not to do this, but If you love your
pets pay not the slightest attention to

OIL TRUST MEN INDICTED.

PEORIA, Ill, May 12.-The graul
jury at Pekin, ILL.,, has returned indict-
ments against two high officials of the
Standard Oil company. Requisition
papers will be asked of Governor De-
neen. The names have been suppress
ed by the jury.
The two officials are charged with
having induced Charles Kersher to
swear that he owned horse and wag-
on which really belonged to the Stan
dard Oil company, in order to force
Fred Hamsuit a resident of Pekin, to
quit selling the product of the Royal
Oil company, competitor of the
Standard Oil company. The story is
as follows:
In 1903 Hamsuit purchased from
man who represented himself to be an
agent of the Standard Oil company,
tank wagon used in peddling oil. At
ter a time he ceased to peddle Stand

of the Royal Oil company.
Repeated efforts to get Hamsuit to
buy of the Standard Oil company hav-
ing failed, Kersher arrived on the
scene and filed suit in a justice court
to replevin the wagon, declaring the
vehicle belonged to him. He won the
case and was given possession of the
property.
The case was called to the attention
of the office of the attorney general of
Ohio and in conjunction with the city
attorney of Pekin, Charles Schaefer,
evidence was secured which showed
conclusively that the property belong
ed to the Standard Oil company, and
that Kersher, who replevined it, is a
secret service man in their employ.
City Attorney Schaefer is authority
for the statement that every effort will
be made to bring the two officials to
Pekin for trial.

THE CLEFT WISHBONE.

of thread thus formed and turn it in a
circle several times until the thread is
very tight and the ends of the wish
bone are drawn closely together. Then
suddenly let the match go, and it will
describe complete circle, producing
the most curious optical illusion.
The rotary motion of the match is
so quick that no eye can follow it, and
it seems as if the free end actually
cleft the wishbone in passing from one
side to the other.
No matter how often the trick is
done nor how how closely the audience
is watching, the illusion will remain.
Try it and see for yourselves.
