SAVING "HeIlo" TO Heart Throbs.

WV
1T is a curious thing" said a prom
inent lecturer recently, "how some
books have a strong radiating person
ality, SO that you feel like saying
'Howdy' every time you come across
them. Last Christmas l visited friends
back at the old home on the farm.
When the supper dishes had been put
away, the chores done and the evening
lamp lighted we gathered beside the
organ for a good old fashioned Sing
On the center table were strewn the
Christmas remembrances taken from
Christmas tree on the evening before.
CHANGING over them l suddenly X
claimed Hello! my good friend,
Hello!' and as the others looked up
with surprise, l picked up a copy of
Heart Throbs' and read to them from
it's pages the piece I spoke In
school 40 years ago.
That was enough to set in motion
the friendly entertaining spirit Of
Heart Throbs, and the music was for
gotten as we took turns reading the
humorous and pathetic bits of prose
and verse that have been preserved
in this wonderful volume. Some books
have great literary value, some have
historical significance, but Heart
Throbs is the only book l know that
slaps you on the back in a friendly
sort of way, suiting itself to your
moods and proving faithful to every
emotion. Next to my love of the Bible
l love Heart Throbs. 1t is the most
notable book of the times"

Railway company, tells the following
story Of one of his new conductors:
The inspector had boarded a car on
one Of the East Side lines and glanc-
ing at the register, noticed that there
were nine passengers on and only
eight fares. He touched the conductor
on the shoulder, a green man from
the country, and said:
you are shy one fare. = There are
nine people on the car and only eight
fares collected"
"By gosh," said the conductor,
that's right" and hastily grabbing the
bell cord, he stopped the car and yell
ing at the passengers ordered one Of

Restricted Choice.

"The people and the corporations"
said Senator La Toilette the other
day, remind me Of a woman and her
little boy. There was a very large
chicken and a very small duck on the
table and the woman, paGsing with
the carving knife raised, said: Johnny.
which will you take, chicken or duck?'
Duck piped Johnny. But the mother
shook her head. No, Johnny she said

choice, darling, take your choice, but
you can't have duck"

TEACH BY EXAMPLE
GOOD METHOD OF Installing
TABLE MANNERS"
children Will UnconsciousIy Copy the
Actions of Their Eiders-Plan
That Worked Successfully
In One Family.

There is very little of the doing
unite others as you would that others
Should do unto YOU in the bringing
up of children, a fact which children
learn o or later and instructive
iy resent under the consciousness of a
lac of fair play" somewhere, or
somehow, but which they are too I'M
developed to rightly place. The
greater part of their poor little lives
Is hedged around with a Spiky fence
OF "don'ts" that would soon bring on a
case of nervous prostration for their
elders if similarly tortured.
Now, if, as modern thinkers be-
'ieve, children as a rule are uncon-
scious copy cats" it is reasonable to
assume that a good deal of training"
and guiding may be we'll done by the
example set them by their elders
rather than by the irritating system of
"donts" and "spanks" that fill these
small lives to overlooking.
To interest a child in its W re
form" is to see that reform" more
than half accomplished, and without
battle, murder and sudden death as
an accompaniment.
In view of this interest I am going
to suggest a simple, pleasant and sue
cessful system" of instilling table
manners into the education of the
average child that was carried on to a
happy issue in a certain family or
my acquaintance.
Each child, from the youngest to the
Oldest, was given a weekly allowance
ranging from three cents for the
youngest to ten cents for the Oldest, OF
II years. For certain thingS-a
breach of table etiquette, for instance
"a fine was imposed that involved
the grown-ups as we'll as the children.
For each spot on the table cloth a
penny was forfeited; also, for reach
ing across the table for anything, or,
for playing with knife, fork, spoon,
napkin ring, glass or cup. Hands
were supposed to be folded in the lap
when not engaged with knife or fork
In eating.
For any of the above misdemeanors
the grOwn-ups were expected to pay a
penny all around to the children, but
the children gave up one penny only.
If a grown-up CHANGED to upset a cup
of tea or coffee the accident was greet
ed with a comical shout Of joy upon
the part of the children, for this
meant five cents all around, and young
eyes danced with the prospect of
these riches. Spot pennies" could
be won back by the children for good
behavior between meals, but they
were never excused from paying the
penalty when the occasion arose to
give it. Under the fun an ironclad
rule existed which the little judges
soon learned to recognize and respect,
because it was fair play"
For the sake Of teaching children
familiarity with the nicer table ap-
pointments, SO that their parents will
never be mortified when guests are
present and children are expected to
dust their table and put
them on for the occasion, whether the
mother has n maid or none, bread
and butter plates, finger bowls and
immaculate linen should be in daily
use

West Hammond's Board
Enlivened by Hint of
Corruption.
SHAKE-UP FOR POLICE
License Question Passed Until Next
Session-Attorney Markham
Nay Be Reappointed.

Things started off at lively clip
with the new West Hammond board at
its first meeting last night. The pro-
ceedings were materially enlivened by
a rumor of bribery which developed
early in the evening. and by the fact
that everybody who could crowd into
the village hall was present in state
of congestion which threatened his
health ii not his life. Every inch OF
standing room was occupied and many
had to be turned away from the doors
because OF the insufiiciency OF the hall
10 accommodate them. Then too, there
was an unexpected shake up in the po-
lice force. two officers being discharged
and two appointed in their place. The
men whose heads fell were oficers
Johnson and Peters. Okroy and Kul-
czyk We're retained and John Kosmolo
and John Levelski appointed TO take
the places of Peters and Johnson.
License Question Brings Brfbe Rumor.
The bribe rumor. was naturally based
upon the attitude OF the dive keepers
toward the new trustees. One of the
former, 1t was asserted, had had the
temerity to approach a trustee with a
definite proposition of reward for faith
full service to him, (the dive keeper1s
but diligent investigation failed TO re-
veal the identity of the alleged briber
or attempted bribee.
/, 1t was generally supposed that the
first thing the new board would do
would be to take some action upon the
| licenses, but when 1T came up a mo-
ton was made to hold It over until
the next meeting which win be next
Thursday night. This disposition of
the matter caused more excitement
/ among those present than definite ae-
tion would have done.
/ The dive keepers who were expect
ling TO learn their fate. we're muSh dis
appointed,
After the matter or granting or re-
voking the licenses was disposed OF
the new board started in with the re-
suits as above stated.
Attorney Samuel K. Markham was
/ present and asked that he be retained
/ as village attorney. James Irving a
| former partner of Markham, was also
present and put in an application for
the position. The board did not take
any action, but held the matter over
until the next meeting, Thursday night
1t is conceded that it Is highly prob
able Markham will be retained as the
attorney for the village, as he sue
ceeded in making a good impression
upon the trustees al the meeting last
night In entering his application he
reiterated his intent to oust the dives.
In the meantime the dives on State
street will be allowed to run, although
their licenses expired May 2. The Law
premits them to do this until the board
either turns down their bonds fol
licenses or grants them new ones.

There are no bonds on the railroad, so
there can be no interest to pay and
that is an inducement to the prospec-

The proposed route Of the railroad
will be through Hammond. and If COM
