Congressman Hubbard Of the Eleventh

without opposition. and the three candi-

be candidates. A meeting was held a few
days ago In Storm Lake in the ONCE of

the leading Cummins men Of the district.
and after considerable discussion 1t was de-
cided TO not oppose the denomination of
Mr. Hubbard for a second term. Mr.. ,Fa-
willie himself was one OF the candidates
that had been announced TO oppose Hub
bard. The meeting was also attended by
8. D. Riniker Of Lyons county. another
candidate who had been announced, and
also by George C. Scott OF Sioux City, who
had been much discussed as a candidate.
The meeting was also attended by such

Advertising a Novel.

In New York literary club two nov elists were discussing a novel of the eighties and of which 6O,OOO copies had been sold
 Tt was,' said the older man, "the best piece of advertising l ever heard of, for it was advertising, not merit, that made the book popular.
 1.-The author has millionaire bache- Tor friend-call him Millions-am he persuaded Millions to let him write for newspaper paragraph to the ef- feet that the novels heroine had made hit with him. and If he could find anywhere girl resembling her he would marry her.
 '"This paragraph duiy appeared. It was copied all over the country. The young women of America. on Are with curiosity and hope, bought and read the book in order to see if they stood any chance with Millions"
 The younger novelist took out his notebook.
 By love-" he muttered Ut wouldn't t hurt to resurrect that scheme"

How the Air Is Purified.

Motion, mechanical and molecular, the great law of the universe, is nat ural method for the purifcation of the atmosphere. Its power as purifier of the air Is shown mechanically in the flow of rivers and in the ocean cur rents. MoAecularly it serves the same purpose in the form of heat light and electricity. When net in motion air stagnates as water dses and becomes offensive and bad. because 1t Is easily impregnated with fine animal and veg etable dust as well as noxious gases. Certain physical conditions are always necessary for the continual movement of the air. We know that the diurnal motion of land and sea air brings the warm days and cool nights as we'll as the rain and wind. In the tropical re- gions as the sun rises the heat of the day increases, and the breeze sets in from the sea to the land. As the sun goes down the heat dlminishes, and at sunset the temperatures of sea and land are equal. At night again the breeze Is from land to sea until morn- ing. when the temperature may be- come equal and the sea breeze return.

 ''I wanted to see Mir Wilson before he left home,' she replied evasively. Wont the tramp come in to break fast?' indicating a gray haired man, who stood by the pump drying his face on red cotton handkerchief.
 No; said he'd take it on the porch as he did his supper"
 "Most of them are not so modest sleeping in the barn and eating on the porch when they could have had bed and come to the table, There was a sheer in her tone. unusual to her kindly nature. And it isn't always safe to put them in the barn. she added.
 "Oh, he seems a pretty decent old fellow Her short, discordant laugh interrupted him an instant. John star ed, then went oil, He doesn't Use to bacco, and Ee wanted to do something for his meals"
 Mrs. Spencer sniffed and added to the tray of food she had fixed q cup of coffee, into which she dropped two Jumps of sugar.

 The tramp seated himself on tie edge of the porch ill front of the open door whence he glanced furtiyely and ire quently at Mrs. Spencer in her place opposite him. She ate little, with an absent. perturbed manner. and return ed the glances with curious eXpres sion in her eyes.

Poison Plants With Purple Blossoms.

The colors of flowers and leaves offer
numbers of interesting problems. No
Gne quite knows why the prevailing
tint of early spring flowers is either
white or yellow. Yellow, indeed, holds
its own to some extent all through the
summer, but the typical color Of sum-
mcr blooms is pink, while as the All
tumn advances richer crimsons and ali
the rich, glowing hues of dahlias and
chrysanthemums are seen.
EIorticulturists have produced pop
pics of nearly every shade under the
sun, and with many other flowers they
seem able to alter the colors almost as
they please. Yet the blue rose, the
black tulip and the green carnation
seem az far off as ever they were in
spite OF constant efforts to arrive at
them. Nearly three centuries ago
Dutch gardeners imagined themselves
Gu the 7ery of inventing q black tulip.
The colors of the blossoms of fruit
trees are limited to white, pink, bright
scarlet and purple. The reason no enc
knows. Nor is it clear why nearly al
plants with purple blossoms have p0is.
onous properties. The deadly night
shade is an instance which will be
familiar to all country readers.-Pear'

His Devotion Saved Him.

The prosecution Of a "strict mem.
Der Of the church and a man of most
exemplary department. for disturbing
the congregation while engaged in d.
vine worship. by his singing, was the
subject with which the court had to
wrestle in the case of State VS.. Link
haw, GO N. G. 214. The report shows
that the effect of the singing "was to
make one part Of the congregation
laugh and the other mad; that the IT.
religious and frivolous enjoyed it as
fun, while the serious and sdevout
were indignant" 1t was shown that
the disturbance was so great that the
preacher in one instance declined to
sing the hymn announced. that the
presiding elder had refused to preach
in the church on account of such dis.
turbance, and that, after a sermon OF
especial solemnlly, a leading member
of the church had on one occasion gone
to the defendant and specially re-
ouested him not to sing at that time,
and in this instance he refrained. But
that, although the church members
and authorities had on many occasions
expostulated with him, he persisted in
singing, and declared that che would
worship his God, and that as a part
Of his worship it was his duty tossing"
He was found guilty. But the case
went to the Supreme Court Of the
State, where it was held that, as he
had no intention or purpose to disturb
the congregation, but was conscien-
tiously taking part in the religious ser
vices, he was not guilty, notwith-
standing the fact that a disturbance
resulted. Thus, again. was religious
freedom established.-Case and Com
ment.
