WHY not PAY TAXES
BY PLANTING Trees?

Farmers, why don't you plant
trees? Don't you know that you can
pay the taxes on your land, or the
greater portion of them, simply by
setting out few trees? Well, you
can and you should do it. If every
farmer would do this there would
be a great change in the appearance
OF our prairies, their taxes would in
deed be small and we would be as
sured of moisture.
In the session of our legislature
for the year of 1905, Herman Scheer,
well to do, thrifty German farmer
from Well county, and an intimate
friend who was member of the
legislature, introduced a bill, which
became a law and now is law pro-
viding for a reward to the farmers
who plant trees on their farms or
along the highways.
The author of this new bill is one
of the most progressive farmers in
Wells county, and realizing the great
benefit to be derived from tree Gull
ture, worked this bill through the
legislature for the mutual benefit of
the state and his fellow farmers.
Farmers, did you ever stop to think
what consideration was given you
and your welfare by the legislature,
when those men agreed to pay you
for your labor in planting trees7
Think of it! you will be paid-or
allowed on your taxes, which is
'equivalent-$3.OO per acre or $500
per 80 rods along the roadside for
five years-simply as an inducement
to improve your farms.
Aside from the pecuniary gain in
planting trees, the owner will be re-
warded by the assurance of moisture
produced. Nature is extremely sen.
sitive and never forces her gifts of
plenty upon her people. The mole
original had eyes, but sought to
bury itself and refuse the light, hence
nature in turn refuses to give it eyes.
Let person cease from exercise and
he becoms puny and frail-let him
exercise and he is given strength ac-
cordingly. And so with moisture.
If we invite it, we will receive it,
but with no effort on our part nature
will not thrust that life-giving nee
essity upon us. Trees insure mois-
ture; barrenness is an assurance of
uncertainty. Did you ever hear of
drouth in timbered country?
Did you ever hear of an assurance of
sufficient moisture at all times in a
prairie country? No. Both propo.
sitions are absolutely opposed to sci.
ence and nature
Read the law to which. we refer
and talk it over with your neighbors
then make firm resolution to begin
this very spring-and carry it out
to plant your share of trees.-Ken

RECKLESS AARON BURR.
Tho Dramatic Story Of His Marriage
IN old Age.

The story of Aaron Burr's marriage
In his old age to the widow of Stephen
Jumel, who was well known In the
early history of New York city, Is a
dramatic one.
Conceive, II you will, the picture Of
Burr, gifted adventurer that he was,
broken In health, branded in the popu-
lar mind as the murderer of Alexander
Hamilton and returning from long
exile to find himself an outcast In the
city where he had once been the pollt-
lcal monarch of all he surveyed and
distinguished figure In society and at
the bar. Conceive, II you can, this
lamentable old man, 'smrking through
his . wrinkles, bowling and prancing
rather stillly because Of his rheumatic
joints and with his mouth full OF pret-
ty platitudps, paying court to the Wild
ow OF Stephen Jumel, herself In the
prime of years and health. Remove
from the picture Its surface incongrui-
ties. and you have bit of pure pathos
unequaed In the annals of foolish great
men.
But something of his old time pow
er to charm the gentler sex must have
stood by him in his years of mental
and physical misery. for In his suit for
the widow Jumel's hand and fortune
he won gloriously, dramatically. Re
buffed repeatedly, Burr finally de-
clared In passionate rage that on
given day he would arrive at the Jumel
mansion accompanied by clergyman,
who should marry them on the spot.
He would give his prospective bride no
quarter, no chance of escape from the
Inevitable.
She was amused at the threat and
dismissed the old man with more than
her usual cOldness Of demeanor Burr
stuck to his ayowal and one July day
rolled up In a carriage, and with him
was minister, the same who fifty years
before performed the marriage cere-
mony for Burr and the mother of his
daughter, the beautiful Theodosia.
There was something of scene In the
old house on this day. There were
tears Of anger on the part of Burr
Relatives demonstrated; Burr remained
immovable. All feared scandal. The
minister, book in hand, stood unob-
/ trusively In the background. There
were more tears, more declarations of
undying love, and the widow Jumel
became Mrs. Aaron Burr.
They were married in the great
! drawing room of the Jumel mansion.
Burr squandered with reckless hand
the wealth acquired by Stephen Jumel
and left for the enjoyment of his
marital partner. There were many bit
ter quarrels between the III mated pair.
and they were soon divorced. Burr
died In 1886, but madam lived until
1865, dying a recluse and a miser, the
money received from the Jumel estate
boarded in an unused chamber.

ESTEEMED CITIZEN
HAS PASSED AWAY
THE MAIL ORDER BUSINESS
How the Patron Puts up the Capital for
it to do Business On,

81 wonder" SAID an official OF the
Reynoldsville Business Mems Associa-
tion the other day, "if the people around
here who are patronizing Chicago mail
order houses realize that they are fur.
nishing capital for these concerns to do
business on p? Almost all of them re-
quire money In advance, many will not
even ship G. o. d. but require cash be-
fore the goods leave their store. In
this way they have hundreds of thous-
ands OF dollars of their patrons money
on hand at all times for goods not yet
shipped That Is, the people are ac-
tually loaning the city houses money
without interest to enable them to com
pete with home merchants. Just sup
pose that the people OF keynoldsville
and farmers in the vicinity furnish our
home business men with large sums OF
money at all times without interest,
cannot they also afford to sell much
cheaper than they can when 80 many
farmers and others get the local dealer
to carry them from spring to fall, or
even over winter, without paying in
terest? Suppose Reynoldsville dealers
insisted on cash In advance for their
goods and the mail order houses carried
their patrons for four to six months
and see what,prlces the stores In Chi
cago must ask to get living"

Stones and Glass Houses.

The origin of the saying, "Those who
live in glass houses should not throw
stones" is as follows: At the time Of
the union of England and Scotland
London was inundated with Scotch
men, and the London roughs used to
go about at night breaking their win
dows. Buckingham being considered
the chief instigator Of the mischief, q
party Of Scotchmen smashed the win
dows of the dukes mansion, known as
the Glass House. The court favorite
appealed to the king, who replied,
"Steenie, Steenie, those who live in
glass houses should be careful how
they fling stones!"-New York Ameri.

Physicians Perform
Cssarean Operation
Brookville Infant delivered by
Aperture Made in1Abdo-
mina1 Wall.

What is known as the cesarean
section was performed by four Brook
Vile physicians when on Saturday
they delivered womrn OF son by
cutting through the walls OF the alb
domen and other tissues.
About noon Saturday DR.. J. X.
Brown, OF Brookville, was summoned
to the home OF Mrs. Cad Hutchins, OF
Port Barnett, to Officiate at baby
matinee, when he discovered that it
would be physical impossibility for
the child to be born as nature had in
tended. Drs. ]. A. DeHaven, Lawson
and Snyder, we're called into consul
tation, and 1t was determined to ad-
opt the only course by which the lives
of both the mother and child could
be saved.
The operation was successfully per-
formed, the physicians delivering a
fully developed child through an aper-
ture made by the surgeons knife.
The youngster is fully developed,
robust, offspring whose strange debut
apparently brought no handicap, while
I'll : mother ia said to be recovering
satisfactory under the circumstances.
Since the Great Julius Caesar, over
1000 years ago, was brought into the
world by a similar operation ccmpara-
