AN UNUSUAL MAN.
By EDWIN A. WYE.
copyrish,. isS. by Edwin A. Nye


 This Is about Il man who tried to do light and was true to hls convictions Incidentally he made and lost mil Ions.
 A few days ago Ferdinand Schu- .lacher of Canton. O. passed away He was the pioneer in the breakfast food industry in the United States Eifty-two years ago Mir. Schumacher came to Akron from Germany He began to prepare oats for the table by shelling cutting and cooking them. In side Of twenty years he had four big mills working night and day 10 supply tue demand for hts cereals. Other companies initiated Schuma- cher, and the industry grew until 1t was absorbed by the trust. MT Schumacher did not understand the ins and outs of high finance" and in lSssi after making an assignment. he left the American Cereal company. Though at one time millionaire. he lied with nothing. His friends say he was manipulated out of his money.
 Anyway. the man himself. and not his millions. Is the important consii- eration.
 Schumacher was one of the original rrnhihltionists of the country. and. what is more. he nractieed what he believed
 An instance:
 When hts immense cereal mills at Akron burned In iss6. large quantities of grain in his elevators became wet and sprouted The hreweries wanted to purchase the damaged grain for dis filling purposes Mir Schumacher re. fused to sell the grain prefcrring to lose rather than have the stuff made into intoxIcants.
 Quixotic?
 Possibly. But it proves tue stamp Of he man. What he believed he believed with all his might, and he stood ready to suffer for the cause he had eSponsed
 Another instance
 Mfr Schunaeher was the promoter Of town company at Marseilles, H.. in which he invested nearly Sl.000.0ou He attempted h make the place a model town and Il tolal abstinence com munity. The venture failed.
 Nevertheless the man did his best. He showed his good intentions. He carried his philanthropie desire to the verge
 Here Is the point in thls mans ca reer:
 He made no pretenses. He put his manhood above his money. And he stood four square to all the winds that blow Yon may not agree with his he. iiefs You may cii him q crank. But you must respect him as yoa must re- speci every man Who mikes good in righteous cause
 Men like Ferdinand Schumacher are aeareer than We could wish

Easy and Worth While.

Real popularity consists in not tell Ing your troubles. in always being cheerful, in always having something bright and pleasant to say and in not being selfish.
 Do little kindnesses to your friends. They do not cost much of an ef1ort shd they are appreciated so much
 1T you have good taste. help them 10 plan their wardrobes or their hats
 Always repeat the nice things you aear about them, but never the bad ones.
 When they are in trouble. be sure TO call or write a kind little note full or sympathy.
 In other words. try to please them and forget about yourself''

Where poddsr Has Been Seeded.

Where dedder has been seeded with clover or alfalfa it's presence will be indicated by the appearance of more or less rounded spreading areas in which the plants are dying down. and if examined at close range the thread like twining stems of the dodder will be found covering them. These areas can be readily seen even 1t some dis tanee, as they present a geliowish or light range colored appearance When discovered the plants within this area and for couple of feet beyond should be cut. allowed to dry and burned. or straw may be spread on these spots and burned to destroy the dodder and prevent is forming seeds.

Tnaas and insects.

Toads will eat some bugs and worms as rose bugs hairy caterpiilars, etc. They also take care of the night flying and moving insects and worms. They sprefer one place as hunting ground and so keep that place in good meas ure free from insect fife. says a writer in Farm Journal. They are next in value to the birds as insect destroyers, and one cannot have too many Of them in the garden.

Points In Gardening.

There is little danger Of making tnc soil too rich for a vegetable garden
 The use of hand tools is unnecessary in the preparation of seed bed II the poil is worked at the proper time.
 The labor of hand wedding may De reduced to a minimum by planting Tn freshly worked soil only. hiiing close 10 tine rows early in the season ana permitting DO weeds to ripen their seed.
 The use of a wheel hoe saves labor Tn the care of a garden even when much of the tillage IS 10 be done with n horse

mo MERRY CHRISTMAS
FOR HOTEL PROPRIETOR
Drummers and Their Expense Ac-
counts Are Sadly Missed at
This Time of Year.

No season of the year is more dread
| ed by the hotel men throughout the
country than the month preceding the
Christmas holidays. Their business at
this time of the year drops of at an
alarming rate. and il keeps the hotel
proprietor huStiing 10 make both ends
meet. Commercial statesmen make it
point to finish up their routes early in
December and travel straight line for
home TO spend the holidays with their
families The tourist travel is exceed
ingly light and only those whose BUSH
ness makes il absolutely necessary for
them TO be away from home are to be
found in the hotels during the month
of December and early in January.
Instead of bearing signatures of men
from New York, Chicago and other
eastern cities the register shows the
signatures of persons living in the liz
tie country villages in Utah, Nevada
and Wyoming. This is the time of the
year when the people who are able TO
come to town to do their Christmas
shopping visit the cities. They come in
small numbers, however, for generally
one person in a small town does the
shopping for the whole village.
While the season is hard on the man
who owns the hotel the porters and
other help are enjoying a little vaca-
ton on the bosses time. There are no
heavy drummers' trunks for them to
haul upstairs, to be hauled out again in
a few days. They are not afraid of be-
ing laid off during the dull season be-
cause some stray drummer might hap
pen in, and the porter must be on hand
The bellboys are not in love with the
dull month before Christmas. When
the house is empty and but few guests
are arriving there are but few tips
given. OF course the regular patron
of the hotel will be on hand Christmas
morning and give the boy on the bench
a little present in kindly remembrance
for his services during the year. The
clerk behind the desk is relieved of
much work, but it is now necessary for
him to buy his cigars
The girl at the money window is try
ing hard to figure out why she is forced
to stay on duty until 1880 o'clock when
not soul has asked her TO cash a check
or offered to pay his bill in four hours
The only money she has taken hold of
during the day is from a man who
wants two quarters for a half dollar,
so he can telephone to his wife in
Springville. The girl at the cigar stand
could give it to him just as we'll as She
so why should she remain until 7:30
o'clock?
