A Little Lower.

The late Archbishop Temple, who
is popularity believed to have been
unequivocably brusque and cutting
Of tongue, had a sense of humor
which enabled him to be suave upon
occasion. When he was head Of
Rugby school woman of high po-
sition, with handsome son Of
whom she was inordinately fond,
went to DR.. Temple in great in
dignation. Her son's housemaster,
she said, had described him in let
ter to her as an lmpostor.
'My boy never deserved such an
epithetl" she said, with deep feeling.
"My dear madam" said DR.. Ten
pie, 81 feel sure that what the
housemaster meant was that your
son could not possibly be the angel
he looked"

has it never occurred to YOU that
when a lady passes the age of thirty
seven she i, not likely to find herself
as much sought after by desirable
Young men as she once was :"
1T occurred to me with sudden
and painful distinctness when YOU
offered yourself just now," she re-
piled. ''Good night, Mr.. jones'.

HE PREDICTS A GREAT FUTURE
Comfort and Prosperity Are to be
Found by Locating in This
Section of the State.

w. Arthur Jones, editor and publisher
of The Weekly Index, published at Chi
cago Lawn, was the guest of Mr.. and
Mrs. Jesse Brown recently. Mr.. Jones
was very favorably impressed with the
village, and is now very enthusiastic in
his praise of Paw Paw and vicinity, as
is evidenced by half column write-up
which we appreciate the more because
we know Mr.. Jones is sincere in what he
says.
The we'll kept lawns and houses, ex-
cellent streets, good water, best of schools
and churches, absence of saloons, our
prospective dam and artificial lake, the
large acreage of grapes and peaches and
the numerous we'll sto cked lakes all APP
pealed to Mr. Jones; and he told his
readers of it in his paper in a most
pleasing manner. He didn't fiatter US
Just told the truth, and that's what we
like.
he closes his article by saying:
"a great many Chicago people are
said to have found comfort and prosper
ity by locating in this section, and we
believe many more would go if they only
understood the situation"
And here Mr.. Jones sayeth rightly.
There are many, many people who would
be glad of securing home in this vicin-
ty if they were but acquainted with the
advantages here offered. 1t is up to US
to bring the stranger to the burg. Ma
ture will aid US ia the appeal which will
cause him to decide and become one OF
US. Let's be unit with this purpose
in view.

CLEANERS HAD A GOOD TIME.
The Almena and Covey Hill Ar
bors Picniced at Hall
Spring Brook.

The Cleaners of Grape Leaf arbor, AL
mena, and the Convey Hill arbor spent a
most enjoyable day at their picnic at
Hall Spring brook Wednesday, August
l.
The young people greatly enjoyed the
different races, pulling matches, etc. A
short musical program was held before
dinner. The latter certainly fulfilled all
expectations, about $50 people partaking
OF the many good things The Cleaners
realized S14.75 from the sale of ice
cream, lemonade, popcorn, etc,
In the afternoon a ball game was
played between the Convey Hill and AL
meua teams, the former coming out
ahead.
A dance was held in the evening at

time and that the Cleaners were all

You Knew, But Didn't Think.

Betting on horse races assures US of
either secret or something to brag
about, according as we lose or win.
Don't you think for a minute that the
man who wants congress to pass a law
against peek "a boo shirt waists isn't
scheming for an inspectorship
Honesty is the best policy, but paid
up life insurance is a close second.
Gourdain, the man who has been real
aggressive in his efforts to "butt in" to
prison has failed in his attempt and has
now awarded the contract for a $4,000
private Jail to be erected near the Joliet,
ILL.,, "pen," and here proposes to do pen
ance. That's all right, but it Just brings
to our mind the fact that if every out.
side man who ought not to be was an
Inside man, and every inside man who
ought not to be was an outside man, the
gang on the inside would be more "of a
feather" for such gentlemen as Mr.
Gourdain, perhaps, and at the same time
the balance OF power" might be shifted

BETTER TREAT ANIMALS RIGHT
Humane Officer McCabe Is After
Offenders who are Misusing
Their Animals

Humane Officer McCabe is after Of
tenders. Those who have been misus-
ing their animals had better stop and
think at least once. The humane law
covers all kinds of all i'll treatment, fail
ure to properly feed stock, or over driv-
ing, etc.
Christopher Trip of Waverly suffered
his horse to become so poor that it could
not rise alone, and the skin and flesh
was literally torn from its bones. 1t was
killed and buried Wednesday by Officer
McCabe. There are those in this vicin-
ity nearly as heartless The penalty is
such that an offender will not want the
second dose. Oats are cheaper than fine
and costs.

no individual is barred. Good old
Mother Nature welcomes each of US,
whether we walk or are transported in
the finest of motor cars Nobody is ever
slighted-all are hidden; and nothing is
lacking to make the party a pronounced
success
In the way of entertainment, decora-
tons, amusements aud refreshments
nothing could be more elaborate. There
is enjoyment for every guest, and that
in abundance and endless variety. All
amusements are helpful and refresh
ments are healthful.
Besides, this form OF entertainment
never has and never will weary person,
and never sends US home with an aching
head, tagged and envIous and out OF
sorts altogether. 1t is stimulation to
every guest-never intoxicating He is
filed with gratitude to his hostess, and
for every fellow guest he has a kindly
feeling. In every way we are better for
having partaken of the hospitality of
Mother Nature, and looked through
nature up to natures God"

AN EXCUSE THAT WON'T PASS
Opened by Mistake" Excuse Will
No Longer GO at the
Post Offices.

The Opening by mistake" excuse by
parties who open letters not addressed
to them will no longer go at the post
offices. That old, time worn excuse
may cost the guilty party 500 hereafter.
The post office department at Wash
ington has ruled that the mail must be
looked over before it is taken from the
Office, and that any letter put in your
box must be returned before leaving the
post Office under penalty of 500 for
failure to do so. The post office depart
ment does not say what will be done to
the clerk who puts the letter in the
wrong box and causes some busy, inno-
cent business man to make the 500

VINEYARDS SUFFER
WITH F|LBERT GALL
GRAPES IN THIS SECTION AT
Tackled BY THE DREAD
DISEASE.

The latter part of last week Mamie
Munger brought to this Office a grape
cane upon which was a large swelling or
growth. The leaves were also covered
with swellings of small size and of a
brownish color. The swelling on the
cane was green in color Mr. Taft writes
as follows regarding the samples which
we mailed to him;
"The large swelling upon the grape
cane is what is known as the 'filbert
gall These are produced by insects,
but as a rule they are not sufficiently
numerous to do much harm. Whenever
found, however, it is good plan to re-
move and burn them.
"The small swellings upon the leaves
that you send are also gals. These are
frequently found upon the Delaware and
some of the other weak growing sorts
and may do considerable harm. The
best treatment will be to use wood ashes
freely upon the plants that show the
gals, using at least one half bushel per
vine over space three feet square or in
creasing the area for the larger vines
When the gals first begin to appear
some benefit can be derived by the use
OF kerosene emulsion, but after the gals
have developed nothing can be done ex-
cept, perhaps, to pick off and destroy the
leaves when there are but few in
tested"
