NOBODY BUT FATHER.

NOBODY knows the money It takes
To keep the home together;
Nobody knows Of the debt it makes.
Nobody knOws-but father.
Nobody's told that the boys need shoes
And girls hats with feather;
Nobody else old clothes must choose.
Nobody-only father.
Nobody hears that the coal and wood
And four's out together;
NobSdy else must make them good.
Nobody-only father.
Nobody's hand in the pocket goes
SO often, wondering whether
There's any end to the wants of those
Dependent-only father.
Nobody thinks where the money will come
To pay the bills that gather;
Nobody feels so blue and glum;
Nobody-Only father.
Nobody tries so hard to lay
Up something for bad weather,
AND runs behind, do what he may,
Nobody-only father.
Nobody comes from the worlds crue
storm,
TO meet dear ones who gather
Around with loving welcome waNm,
Nobody does-but father.
Nobody knows Of the home life pure,
Watched over by a mother,
Where rest and bliss are all secure,
Nobody can-but father.

by an orchestra of thirty pieces The
superb rendition of "The Creation
by the choral union last year was
heard with the greatest pleasure by
an audience which packed the theatre,
and the probabilities are that the opera
house will not be large enough to seat
those who will want TO hear the
Oratorio this year Some of the finest
soloists of The coantry are being On
gagged for the solo parts. and there is
every promise of such production as
is seldom heard outside of the largest

by Mr.. A. @. Baker of this city,
describing his recent trip to the City
of Mexico The story of his trip
was written while he has been re-
covering from severe attack of ty-

pleasing way and describes so well
ne condition Of the country through
which he journeyed, that we are sure
the articles, which will run through
several issues of the paper. will be
read with interest.

TRACTION INDUSTRY IN INDIANA.
Some Interesting Facts Concerning Elec
trio Lines in the Vicinity Of
Indianapolis.

Mr.. Bear hands us AN item concern
| ing electric railways in Indiana which
will be Of particular interest at this
time The article was sent to Mr..
| Bear by his friend, Mr.. Harmon
! Meyer, OF the Home Furniture Co. of
indianapolis, one of the largest bust
ness houses in the state. 1t is as fol
lows:
indianapolis can point with pride
to fourteen electric roads entering a
million-d dollar terminal station and
jointly operating 400 cars in and out
of Indianapolis every twenty -four
hours. During the year 1906 the in
terurban roads carried in excess of
5. 0C0. 600 people into and out of In
dianapolis; or, to make it more plain,
the interurban roads handle as many
passengers daily as will equal one
eighth of the population of Indiana
polls. which at this time is 222, 600. -
In this way, Charles N. Wilson, of
this city, president of the American
Engineering Company writing for the
Tradesmen. sums up the traction in
dustrv in central Indiana The article
is entitled, Electric Railway Con-
struction in the Central States-A
Transformation Which is Possible
Also for the South" Excerpts show
ing the growth of the traction bust
ness follow:
''On the 18th of January. ten years
ago. the first electric car was operated
in Indiana. and in the same month
and year the first electric car was
started in operation in Ohio: since
that time 1850 miles of modern
electric railroads have been con-
structed and put in operation in In
diana, and 2,240 miles in Ohio. In
addition to this there is now building
in the two states 1900 miles of ne w
road and an equal mileage is being
promoted
AS soon as the gap of thirty miles
is built between Charlottesville, Ind. !,
and Danville, ILL.,, and another
small gap between Fit Wayne. Ind !,
and Bryan, o., it will be possible to
take a sleeping car at St Louis,
and by continuous electric roads travel
to indianapolis. Louisville, Cincin-
natl, Dayton, Toledo, Detroit, Cleve-
land, Erie, Pa, and Buffalo, n. Y,
and at no distant day TO Pittsburg
All this will probably be reality
within another year, as all the lines
except the gap mentioned are in oper-
alton.
In conclusion, the writer points out
that interurbans build up small towns.
enhance the value of farm lands and
agricultural products, increase the
Iattractiveness of farm anu suburban
life, tend to solve the help problem
in rural communities, etc

A Novel Idea.

The wife of well known artist
when she entertains at dinner uses for
table decorations little squares of
white with gay red flowers, on which
are set little trees made of branches OF
real leaves dipped in preservative.
The arrangement suggests an Italian
garden. Half of the tiny trees are per-
fectly round. the others long slender
and pointed at the tops. Alternate
trees have little garlands of bright red
berries. In the others berries are put
in here and there to give a touch of
color. The arboreal fayors were
brought over from Germany by this
economical young woman. who finds
a dozen of them give charming eff
feet and save her from spending
money on flowers.
