Happy Mother-Happy Child.

The happiest children are those who
have happy mothers. The young life
which grows up in the shadow Of a
disconnected, repining, and gloomy
mother is like a plant unwatered by
kindly dews. 1t is apt to be dwarfed
and stunted. Even when things are
crooked and temptations to be harsh
come, let the mother. for her sons and
daughters sake, try to be happy.
How to Secure "a Good Complexion.
Those who desire a good complex

using a good cold cream, and every
other night use a good astringent. Di-
luted lemon juice is the best astrin-
gent that can be used. Let it remain

To Probe Coal Prices.

Louisville, KY, Oct. 20.-The inter
state commerce commission has called
4 meeting for Knoxville Monday to in
,vestigate the recent increased price of
coal in Kentucky. The commission
will be in session there probably until
Thursday, when it will adjourn to
louisville to continue the examination
of witnesses. G. G.. McChord of the
Kentucky state railroad commission
has been requested to conduct the ex-
animation for the interstate commerce
commission, and he has summoned a
large number of witnesses. In con-
nection with this investigation the in
terstate commerce commission will
seek to determine whether or not the
railroads of Kentucky own or control
the coal lands of the state. According
to the local coalmen, the increase in
price is due 20 lack of transportation

The TumbleyveeU Il.

Tumbleweeds spread themselves in
q wholesale fashion. Instead Of send
ing the separate seeds out into the
world with wings or hairs to carry
them, the whole plant breaks off near
the root when these are ripe, and
goes rolling along the ground before
the wind. The bare, sun scorched des-
erts of the great west produce several
tumbleweeds, and there are some in
the prairie region. 1t is natural that
they should be most abundant where
there are no hills or trees to stop
them in their course. But we have one
tumbleweed in the eaSt-the old witch
grass, so called, maybe, because it rides
the wind like an old beldame. In Sep
TENDER this grass spreads its head or
panicle, with hairlike, purple branches,
in every sandy field. When the seeds
are ripe the plants are blown across
the field, often piling up in masses
along fences and hedgerows. AS might
be expected, the hair grass, which has
so effective a way of spreading itself,
is found throughout the United States
from ocean to ocean.

1t is authoritativeIy stated that Rookie

In order to convict the accused, il

The thorough ground work for the
Richmond Y. NJ. c. a. project be-
speaks success for the undertaking
and unless all signs fail the soliciting
committees, when they begin the ac-
tual canvass next month. will be abb
lie to bring in the requisite amount
without difficulty.
1t is hoped, it might be stated
that the canvass for funds
will result in 100000 being
raised. OF this sum between $50, 900
and $4,000 will be used for the
building and equipment, the remain
der for the building site and for the
first years maintenance of the asso-
citation.
Secretary Brown who is in charge
of the work hopes to have on dis
play soon, pictures and plans of var
ious Y. NJ. c. A. buildings which are
looked up on as especially suited to
the needs of citizens of the size of
Richmond. 1t is too early in the
work to even speculate as to the pos
sible location of Richmond's Y. NJ. G..
A. There are several sites that
would meet with the approval of the
committee, but up to this time moth
ing has been done relative to this
When the funds are in hand it will
be time to figure on the building site
In the meantime the committees are
hard at work laying plans for the
canvass and one of the things that
this committee desires understood, is
that everybody is invited and expect
ed to contribute something to the
cause.

It's Skill When Running For Life
From the Hounds.
No other still hunter can travel SO
quietly as a fox, and mighty few men
are as crafty as the four legged hunter
when it comes to matter of getting
meat Foxes have been seen in Eng
land slipping from bush to bush. crawl
ing and creeping after a feeding hare,
for all the world like a man stalking a
deer The fox cannot catch u rabbit in
a fair chase, but it's food is mostly rab-
bits in spite of their fieetness. But at
no time does it display IFS skill so well
as when running for life with a pack
of hounds on its trail.
CLAUS Magnus archbishop of Upsala,
wrote book called Historic de Cent?
bus Septentrionalibus. of which an
English translation exists. This book
tells of a fox that leaped from back to
back of 81 herd of goats. As the. dogs
could not follow. the fox escaped
A curious trick of English foxes is to
jump as high as possible. grasping a
tree branch with their teeth. hold on
till the hounds have gone on and then,
dropping TO the ground. escape. This is
similar TO the trick of the American
fox which jumps into tree and
rests on Il branch. but American dogs
are not such fools as English dogs
They gather around the tree and howl
till the hunter comes.
