his pleasant way and strong interest in the
Sunday school work was always greeted with
pleasant countenances whenever he rose to
talk. And these with the good reports from

cheering when it was reported that nearly
1000 persons were attending Sunday school

vast increase over former years.

Free Alcohol.

Henry Ford, the automobile build
er of New York, states that the pass
age of the bill permitting the free
and unrestricted manufacture of free
alcohol will work a revolution In
American industry.
One thing about the bill is that it
will not only benefit the manufacture
err, but will also help the rural dis
tricts. Alcohol can be made from
any plant that grows on the farm and
in extracting the alcohol from corn,
beets or any other plant, it does not
hurt the value of the plant OF which
it is taken from.
You do not have to have expensive
machinery or large factory to ex-
tract this liquid but every farmer can
make il in amounts for their own use.
Another thing about it is that
trusts cannot control its manufacture
as it can be made by any one with
small expense. 1t will not cost any
more than the making of butter.
This cheap alcohol will make great
saving i n fuel as it is cheaper than
gasoline and in most cases makes a
great deal better fuel.

Record on an Erie woman living out
on one of the rural phone lines, who
has formed the very bad habit of at
tending to her neighbours affairs more
strictly than she attends to her own
She is so fearful that she will miss
something that goes over the line
that she rarely ever gets out of hear
ing distance of the phone bell. How
ever neighbor set a trap for her the
other day and she fell in. He pro-
ceeded by calling up Mrs. Jones,
another neighbor: "Hello, is this

Mt. Carroll. I'LL Democrat
Washington, D. c., June 1O.-A
veteran out in Illinois has written
bill Of complaint to the commissioner
of pensions. He says:
''I've just got another O. your postal
cards teliin' me to GO before the dok-
tors to be examined. I've been gettin'
these cards bout every mont since 1

examined. punched In the ribs, and
sounded in the lungs, and made to
bend over the back of cheer, and do

you sent me to odds and ends of dok-
tors who couldn't tell the difference
between an epileptik Simpton and

''mebbe this is olright, and it may
be fun for the doktors, it was fun for
me for while, but now that you
order me back to the fust too doktors,
and probly expek me to start on the

to kick like a brindle stear. Last

of pair of colts my wooden leg got
tangled up and was chawed to flinders
in a mion machine. i piled to the
doktors general for a new leg, but he
