Oddly il, the Mems
Cured Of Gum Habit.

Clinton.--Confronted with an cpl
demic OF gum chewing in the higher
grades that threatened to disrupt the
class, the principal of high school,
forced a dozen boys of the hlghest
class to stand the entire day before
the school chewing vigorously ON tnelr
favorite brands of gum. For some
weeks this violation Of the rules Oh
the school has been serious matter
with which the instructors had to con-
tend.
When other methods of punishment
proved fruitless, the principal decided
to take drastic action. When the pu-
pills arrived at school the worst OF
tenders were picked out, given a
quantity of gum, placed on promin-
ent place on the front platform, an0
told to chew to their hearts
content. For several hours the boys
evidently enjoyed the plan and con-
sidered their punishment in the light
OF great sport. Glasses were dis
missed and the other pupils put IN
their time watching the gum chewing
contest against time. At noon, far from
being cured, the scholars considered
their punishment in the nature OF a
joke and decided to fight it out all
along the line, claiming they coulo
chew as long as the principal desired
it, When thus defed, the professor
conceived another plan. All the pupils
were invited to take a fresh quantity
of gum with which to pass the after
noon. The pleasant flavor of the orig
inal pieces having long been lost, this
was hailed with joy and in anticipation
of the fresh, pleasant flavor OF fresh
piece, the pupils took extra large GUAM
titles Instead Of the anticipated pleas
ure, however, the new gum was found
to be covered with quinine. which had
been thoroughly mixed and PRODUCING
a most unpleasant effect. In less thar
a moment a committee was appointed
to visit the principal and surrender
Despite this, however, the pupils Wert
made to chew the quinine favored
article for several hours, until all were
heartily sick Of the unpleasant tast-
ling mess after which all promised te
forswear the habit during schoo
hours.

terials to get the crushed rock from
the penitentiaries at very low cost
and yet one portion of the state is not
taxed for the benefit of another. the
question Of large state aid appro-
priation is met completely with TINS
method OF state cooperation.
THE successful distribution OF this
free crushed stone has been made pos
sible by the low freight rates granted
by the railroads of the state. The law
provides that the highway commission
shall be empowered to arrange for spe-
cial freight rates. There has now been
secured from all the railroads In the
state rate so low as " cent per ton
mile and from some roads rate of
mills per ton mile.
with the aid of the material thus
prepared the commission has been able
to construct experimental stone roads
In sections of the state where macadam
roads had never before been used or
built at a cost to the commission of
little more than the expense of super
vision. The commission also furnished
the rollers and sprinklers, as few COM
munities are at present provided with
these necessities for proper stone road
building. In every instance these roads
have attracted much attention locally.
and have well proved the value and
Importance Of experimental work in
road building.
In a number of counties so per cent
OF the amount spent on roads and
bridges was for bridges, so this fea-
,ture of highway work is one Of partic-
ular Importance In Illinois. Only a
casual investigation was necessary to
establish the fact that a majority of the
bridges were about half the requisite
length and cost approximately twice
what they should. The reason for this
was lack Of skilled supervision The
commissioners and supervisors have to
|expend the taxpayers money for
bridges about which they know nothing
nothing about the requisite strength,
nothing about the proper cost. To corr
rect these conditions the highway
commission offers free of charge to the
local highway officials designs, esti-
mates and specifications for highway
bridges OF all kinds, and the demand
for this aid indicates that it will be one
Of the most important phases of the
work OF the commission. Already
plans and estimates for some fifty
bridges are under way.
1.-THE widespread interest taken in
the work of highway Improvement. and
particularly in connection with the
state highway commissions. is shown
by the fact that sixty-seven farmers
institutes requested the commission to
furnish a speaker to discuss road i'm
provement. In Illinois any plan of
highway which does not appeal to
the common sense OF the farmers in
stitute Is doomed to failure.
The work of the Illinois highway
commission is based on the belief that
much better results can be obtained
without increased taxation; that better
methods are necessary for better re-
suits; and that it is essential that the
practical advantage OF better methods
first be demonstrated before consider
ing the question of increased expendi-

BRYAN TO win; BEAN SAYS so
Indiana Woman Finds Omen in Poe
Which Grows Green After Years.

Petersburg. Ind, March 13.-On the
day that William J. Bryan was nom
mated for the presidency Mrs. William
Loveless, one of his admirers, plucked
a long bean from its steam in her
garden and hung it in her bedroom,
naming it the Bryan bean. The bean
withered but year after year it hung
just over Mrs Lovelessi smantel.
Several days ago she noticed that
+ the bean was taking on greenish
appearance. When she looked at it
again the pod had swollen to its orig
inal size and the beans within appar-
emily had swollen, while the pod was
as green as the day on which it was
plucked from the stem.
Mrs. Loveless regards the circum-
stances as the certain forerunner of

Cancer Cure Grows Hair.

3 McKeesport, Pa.-When Julius
Greutzner, an aged resident of Green

he expected cure of THAT disease
This was week ago and his head

Sues Indian for Divorce.

Appleton Wis.-An unusual case IN
the Appleton circuit court is an action
brought by Mrs. Skenadore, white
against James r. Skenadore, her In
dian husband, charging desertion. The
question at issue is whether the un-
written Indian law that squaw Shall
support the brave is applicable or the
white mans law.
The earliest tradition of indian LIE
provides that the squaw must support
the husband who must be a brave and
hunt. but never do the mental labor OF
the fields or the household. Now the
true Indian woman inherits this idea.
and it is bred in her turnout her LIE,
but with a white woman 1t Is different
Mrs. Skenadore is said to have not q
drop of Indian blood in her veins, II
was said that the defense would seek
to show infidelity on the part of Mrs
,Skenadore to be the reason of the de-
,sertion of the husband. AS abandon
ment among Indians is an almost I'M
heard of thing the grounds upon which
he may be justified will be precedent
for future cases. .S
Mrs. Skenadore appeared in court
with her two children.
