But the lady was very devoted to

hysteria because she could not attend
services and hear her favorite pastor

"She must not leave the house."
warned the doctor, 'but you can easily

The elder grasped the suggestion and
made the necessary arrangements for
transmitting the sermon into his wife's
room.
At noon on the Sabbath the doctor

Feeding Small Chickens.

Chickens do not require food for the
first twelve to thirty-six hours after
Matching. One of the best foods that
can be fed for the first few days is
stale bread soaked in milk. This
should be crumbled fine and placed
where the chickens have free access
to II, and where they can not step
on It.
Granulated oats, with the hulls re-
moved) make an excellent food for
young chickens. There is. perhaps,
no better grain food for young chick
ems than oats prepared in this man
ner 1t may be fed to good advantage
after the second or third day in con-
nection with the bread sopped In milk.
A good practice is to keep 1t before
them all the time.

How to Care for Ducks.

Ducks are easily raised, and cost
but little more than chickens. They
grow surprisingly fast, and apparently
are not affected by neglect, requiring
only reasonable amount of care
with plenty of good substantial food
and water.
When the ducklings pip the shell
they do not emerge at once, as do
chicks, but remain quiet for possibly
"a hours. They then burst the shell,
but must be left quietly alone, as
they are very delicate for the first
few days.
After "a hours remove the hen and
duckllngs to warm coop and care for
them as you would for chicks.
The best food is one part of corn
meal and four parts of bran, with a
generous supply Of fine grit added
Moisten slightly and feed three times
a day for the first week. After this
change to any other kinds of food
that conditions may suggest.-Tri-

Robert Louis Stevenson once took an

Sir Charles Halle play the piano at st.
James hall, London. Sir Charles was
a musician OF the most correct and
severe British type, though German
by birth. After the concert was over
they walked as far as the Marble arch,
neither having spoken. Arrived there,
the friend stopped and delivered him
self thus; "The manner OF the elderly
statesman at the piano was somewhat
austere and chilling" And then they
walked on.

phere on Friday the Laporte county

Lamphere now stands before the bar
OF justice officially charged with ar.
son, five murders and being an ac.
cessory in the Helgelein murder.
Separate .Nills were returned
against Lamphere for the murder. in
the first degree, of Mrs. Guinness and
her three children. The unusual feat
ure of the seventh true bill is its in.
dictment of the dead woman. 1t
reads:
"The grand Jury presents that
Belle Guinness. late OF the county of
Laporte and state of Indiana. on the
14th day of January. 1908. did unlaw.
fully, feloniously. wilfully and with
premeditated malice kill and murder
Andrew Helgelein, the means and
manner OF such killing being to the
grand jury unknown"
Lamphere was not arraigned and
this will probably not be done until
the cases are set for trial. Bench
warrants issued by Judge Richter
were served upon Lamphere In Jail.
He expressed but slight surprise. as
the returning of indictments had been
anticipated
II shall ask to have the cases set
down for early trial this term," said
Prosecutor Smith.
The digging Friday under the direc.
tion of Sheriff Shutter resulted in the
