Some of the farmers near North
Redwood have been picked for easy
marks by an Indiana horse medicine
company, who sent them 81 bottles
of horse medicine which in due time
we're delivered at their homes with
out their ordering it. Later came
bills followed by threats of suit,
when some of the would-be victims
got together and sent the stuff back
by express, collect. This is one way
the mail order people try to impose
their wares upon the inspecting. A
rural route patron should be pro-
tected from having wares delivered
without orders.

Scientist Makes Kisses Safe.

The following item from a Wednes-

duction, because of the evident unfa-
miliarity of the writer with the party
or property mentioned:
NEGRO MINING MAN AT LAST STRIKES
1T RICH
John Morris, a negro mining man,
after 25 years work, at last has struck
a rich streak of free gold and smelling
ore which runs 81 to the tou. His
claim is situated on Chicago creek, one
mile from Idaho Springs. He now has
shaft driven in something over 300
feet and has over over 100 tons of this
ore ready for shipment. The Little
Rich is the name of his mine and it is
situated on claims 2, and 4. 1t is be-
lieved that after toiling a quarter of a
century, with little encouragement,
Mr. Morris has at last developed a mine
that will shortly make him independ-

THE CAT CAME BACK.
But II Was Not at Home in the Coun-
try for Awhile.

The kitten that the little city girl
had brought back from the country
with her last fall had grown to be a
kig, beautiful cat when the time came
10 go to the mountains again, SO he
was placed in a basket and carried to
the train, the first time since his baby
hood that he had been below the third
door Of the apartment house. There
was little surprise and good deal Of
amusement, therefore, at the cats
ideas of nature, gained. as they had
been. by close inspection. Of fire es-
capes and adjacent brick walls, with
an occasional glimpse of an asphalt
pavement. For the first three or four
days it was impossible to keep pussy
on the ground floor. 1t would run to
the top Of the big farmhouse and peer
out of the window whenever it was re-
leased on the veranda. Gradually, how
ever 1t became accustomed to life on
the ground level. and in a week or so
timidly ventured outdoors by itself.
Then 1t was quickly found that it's
natural instincts had not been affect
ed by city life, for it soon became a
terror to song birds, much to the
disgust OF it's little mistress, who is
constantly torn with grief between her
love for the cat and for the brides
that fell victims of its cunning. Now
that pussy has taken to sleeping out
of doors it is a serious problem wheth-
er to bring it back to the city again or

WORLDS SUGGEST cArAs1eoe.s
u 10 the Plague Epidemic New on in
India.

The greatest catastrophe the world
has ever known is in progress az this
present moment and the world recks
little or nothing of it.
This Is the plague epidemic in India.
which has now been raging for more
than IL years. and which, SO far from
showing any tendency to die out.
keeps steadily increasing in intensity.
Thus, during the six weeks ending
May IL last. 4sl,ss2 persons perished
from 1t. or at the rate Of over so 900
deaths a week
Nothing approaching the appalling
horror represented by these figures
has ever been recorded before The
nearest to 1t was In 1905. when, dur
ing the last week in March. the cpl
demic was responsible for STOP
deaths.
No pestilence OF ancient or modern
times of which we have any knowl.
edge has slain SO many millions OF
people as has this one and the end of
which. mind, is not yet.
The Great Plague" OF London, for
example. about which everybody has
heard, killed at the outside some S0,-
900 people in seven months, or about
as many as are dying weekly in India
from a disease which is Identical with
1t in every respect
The BLACK Death" is said to have
slain one-third OF the then population
of England-say 100000 persons;
but this is doubtful Even admitting
the correctness of the estimate. how
ever, the mortality of the present cpl
demic in India has already more than
doubled this huge total
What will be the end no man can
foresee or venture to forecast 1t may
be that all that has gone before. and
all that is happening now, inexpres-
sibly awful though it is, is but the
prelude OF worse to follow-Pearson $
