Two more pieces of baggage were stolen
from the Louisville and Nashville depot
Sunday and were recovered by the po-
lice. The baggage consisted of two sam
pie cases containing samples of gloves,
belonging to a Chicago travelling man.
The gloves were all for the right hand
and were of no use to the thief An
attempt was made to track the theft
with bloodhounds, but was nos successful.
This is the second theft of this kind
to take place within the past few days.

UNDERSTAND eAsY,s CRIES.

The wise mother will know in q, very
short time that there is a language in
the cries of a baby that becomes
as Ineligible with a little careful study
as the English language itself.
1t is a kind provision Of nature that
finds a means for even the tiniest baby
to tell just what is wrong, though ma
ture has not always been as kind in
teaching mothers how to learn it, or
to realize the something their cries tell.
There is the sleepy cry, when baby
is cross and tired, when rubber balls
and rattles have lost their attractions
and even scissors and alarm clocks
ave ceased to be amusing. This cry
is,only a fretful sort of whine followed
by q little real yelling that stops sud-
denly and then goes back to the Begin
ming and goes all over it again. The
mother ear trained to the %faintest dis
tinction of oun knows hat it is high
time baby was tucked up in his little
bed.
Then there is the hungry cry that an
nounce that baby is ready for his next
meal. This is a steady, fretfui cry that
keeps up indefinitely and the cry that
comes after, the collie cry, which is
sharp and tells plainly of pain. The
cry that tells more emphatically than
words that pins are sticking into him
or that bands are cramp1ngly tight is a
series of sharp screams. while the n
that tells of sickness, fever, or other
Ills peculiar to babyhood is nothing
more than a pitiful little wall.
And last of all there is the cry that
tells of temper, when baby is fighting
for his own way. He doesn't have to
be many weeks old before he learns it
either or is able to use it to advantage.
This cry is an angry scream with alb
rupt short intervals of quiet. It can
be easily recognized by the conspicuous
absence of accompanying tears n be-
cause 1t always ceases as 500 as baby
gets his own way.
IT is a language that is more import
ant for the young mother than all her
college mastery of German and French.
1t is the Esperanto of women and soon
or later everyone will recognize its
Importance.

MAKING EASTER GIFTS.

Each year the custom OF giving
Easter presents is becoming more gen
eral. No longer is a lily or a pot of
white hyacintlls considered the only
appropriate gift either. but anything
and e~verythings is now In good form.
One is not necessarily reminded Of the
Significance of h day blythe gift Of
bible or some little white covered
book Of beautiful thoughts. The more
especial meaning of the commons
Grafton may be los sight of entirely In
frivolous neck ruches and fragrant
sachets that are anon the newer and
more acceptable presents for the wo
men who have more worldly tastes.
Lent. when there is a iull in the So
cial whirl, affords the lime for maxi
ing many attractive little remembran-
ces for Easter giving. and probably
none are more in favor than the many
and various kinds of sachets made
from bits of ribbon and lace to wear
or to hang in the closet with ones
gowns
Next to the sachets come the new
lingerie strips for wear with the silk
shirt waists, or the fancy coat sets that
are cunningly made from linen and
lace.

COFFEE THREsHED HER

did not get much relief.
Il never suspected that coffee might
be ~aggravating my condition. l was
downhearted and discouraged, but
prayed daily that | might find some
thing to help me.
Several years ago, while at a
friends house, l drank a cup Of Post
UNI and thought | had never tasted
anything more delicious.
From that time on / used Postum
instead of Coffee and soon began to in
prove in health. so that now l can walk
half a dozen blocks or more with ease,
DO many other things that never
thought / would be able to do again In
this world.
My appetite is good, / sleep we'll

A lady of my acquaintance said she
did not like Postum, It was 10 weak
and tasteiess.
Il explained to her the difference
when 1T is made right-boiled accord
ing to directions. She was glad to know
this because coffee did not agree with
her. Now her folks say they expect to
use Postum the rest of their lives"

.oId indiana" Holds the Ribbon.
Dundurn, sask., Sept. 80, 1906.
Mr.. w. IA. Rogers. Canadian Govern
ment Agent, indianapolis. Ind.
My Dear Sir-When you were at our
place in July l promised to write you
what my North quarter made per acre.
You will remember it was all sown to
wheat. Well, l finished threshing yes
terday. and received from it an aver
age of 1874 bushels per acre-testing
041la pounds per stroked bushel. The
wheat is the best sample l have ever
~raised--so uniform and even in size.
1ou may know it was Il good sample
when / tell you that / nave already
sold 1000 bushels of it for seed to Try
~neighbors. This year has been my best
emo In farming during my life. My
wheat totalled $3.50 bushels and my
oats nearly 5000.
If you remember I pointed out to
you a half-section lying Just west OF
our house and joining my upper quar-
ter on the south, which l said l should
have in order to make one of the best
Sol1iEs III western CANADA. L am very
glad to be able to tell you that / now
own that half-section. My ambition
now is to be able to market 10000
bushels of wheat next year. If some
of those good honest Hoosiers could
have been with me during the last two
weeks and could have seen the golden
grain rushing down the spout into my
wagon and then could have seen it in
great piles in my granaries, / feel sure
they would have been forced to ac-
knowledge there is no better farming
country in the world than this. ! may
just say that ! have lone all my farm
Ing with eight head of horses and one
hired man except during harvest and
threshing. This year / proved to my
neighbor that the Hoosiers when once
woke up can raise grain equal to the
best Minnesota farmers. His best weld
was 4213 bushels Per acre. so you see
"Old Indiana is hol5ing the ribbou
this year.
Yours very truly.
