Farmer Seeks Arrest Of PaImist Who
Had to Wear Money Near Heart.
Marion, Ind, Oct. when James
L. Loop, farmer, of Sycamore, decid-
ed he wanted a divorce, he could find
no grounds for suit, so he consulted ].
Victor Kenwood, palmist. Saturday
Loop secured a warrant for the seer,
who has disappeared. Loop says the
palmist told him that for 5000 he
would cast spell over Mrs. Loop that
would drive her insane. Loop paid,
and the palmist told him that it would
be necessary for him (the palmist) to
wear the money next his heart and go
to some quiet, distant spot in order.
properly to cast the spell. Mrs. Loop
had persisted in remaining sane and
her husband thinks he ought to get
his money back. The police have been
known to display more enthusiasm on
a case than they are showing in the
hunt for the palmist.

tended, Mrs. Rebecca Wentzel, an og-
tOgenarian of this city, who since she
was a young woman has been gratifying
a peculiar whim to see people buried,

illness.
Of the 1892 burials, there were IA in

husband and wife inferred at the same

buried at the same time. In one case
three children in one family were laid
away in the same grave.

That our American Forests abound in
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the UNTIL
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This informa-
tion, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have a rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.

Doctor Away From Home when
Most Needed

? People are often very much disap-
pointed to find that their family ply
sician is away from home when they
most need his services. Diseases like
cramp collie and cholera morbus re-
quire prompt treatment, and have in
many instances proven fatal before
medicine could be procured or a ply
sician summoned. The right way is
to keep at hand a bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarr-
hoea Remedy. No physician can
prescribe a better medicine for these
diseases. By having it in the house
you escape much pain and suffering

BOY WRITES
ON SPINE, ETC.

A boy in village school gave
some strange information along the
line of physiology in his examination
paper, for he said
''The spine is long bone in the
back of a person. 1t has hinge in
it; otherwise we could not sit down.
Tight lacing drives the ribs-into the
heart, and is therefore bad. High
heeled shoes pitch you forward so
that you are apt to get curvature of
the spine, and this is dangerous. Ap-
penuissetus is something folks never
knew they had until within few
years, and if the doctors had not gone
and told about it it seems to me folks
would of been better off. There is
something called the verifum appen-
dix that gets clogged up like the pipe
in the kitchen sink, and if you don t
have it attended to you die and some
times you die if you do so it is a
dangerous disease any way you fix it.
Sometimes doctors think you have
it when you amt, and they go and
open you by mistake, and that is lots
of bother and trouble all for nothing.
Germs are things you cannot see or
smell, but you know it when you
have them all right. The bones of
the body are to keep us in shape.
Without them we would be like
jellyfish. The bones and the muscles
work together, and if we did not have
either bones or muscles we would be
very bad off and probly idiots. The
brain is what we think with. The
more we have of it the more we
think. People who do not think has
no brains New York Tribune.

suppose you go back and talk to your
little cousin. and then you can help
him dress, too, and come on to the
pavilion with him. II you persuade
James to get up and come right on,
mother will buy you beautiful new
book"
Jack faced obediently about, and
when his back was we'll turned, he
made a wry face which would have
curdled the blood Of Coop, for no
had overheard his Aunt Jennie say.
admiringly,
Nov. isn't Jackie the sweetest
thing' don't SEQ how It Will be pos,
sible for James to persist In his
naughtiness after he sees him."
Jack felt very doubtful about hia
mission, for he knew that James did
not approve of himself or his mother,
, but the unusually smart raiment with
which he had been decked out made
him wildly reckless, and he longed for
something to break the monotony of
his perfect propriety, and even felt
equal to the fisticuff which he half
expected. If James should get the
best of him, as he was altogether like
ly to do, still there would be the salts
faction of wearing tumbled clothes in
consequence, and oh, sweet hope. per-
haps in the melee the blue ribbon
would be loosened and fall from his
hair!
James lay sprawled out in the mid
die Of the bed, with his feet propped
up on the pillows, a neat array of holi-
day garments lying on char by the
bed
They sent me back" said Jack, ito

Shoot" cried James. IL guess pa

With bounce he landed on the floor
and snatched from the wall long
discarded Astrakhan cap.
Come on, little gal-boy," he called
'I'll take care of you, and wen go
right on to the pavilion and hear the
band play"
"Oh, Jamie, you wouldn't ever?"
painted Jack, as he raced along at
James heels, and watched the pink
nightshirt fiooping.
"Oh, you come on, little frill-
breeches!" was all the answer he re-
ceived, and then Jack made grab for
James, just as the gate changed behind
them. He planted one small fist
plump in the back OF his cousins neck
and then they both stopped and squar-
ed of. James gave Jack another of
those puzzled looks, and then dropped
his fists. Il couldn't bear to hurt a
little thing like you!" he said. and
then he had to dodge Jacks fist
again. Say jack. he said. as sud.

THE RIGHT KIND - When you
see n boy that will do any kind Of
work no matter how menial it may
be, rather to be idle. you may make
up your mind that he amounts to
something. The young man who
would starvo before he would do any
thing below what he conceived to be
his dignity, is not made OF the right
kind OF stuff to cut much Of n figure

he would hear the motion October %. The

precedent.
