"The popping stone" marks the spot

Carpenter to marry him. 1t is situated
in the beautiful valley of the 1rthing,
at Gilsland, an inland watering place

visited by many thousands during the
summer months, and it is said many a
laggard lover has had his courage

WHAT THEY. SAY


Parent: Since the Collingswood
fire in which so many school children
were burned to death, public excite
ments on the matter has died out:
That fire resulted in means of exit
being provided where they did not
exist. Our high school building is
as safe as 1t can be made, but I fail
to see why an extra exit Is not made
ON the west side Of the Will school.
There is only one exit and if that was
not able to be used there is no way
of escape except by. the fire escapes.
Why not have an. exit to be used
only in case of fire, on the west side
Of the building. 1t may never be
used but once but that once may
save many lives. y: sIz5S8 ssj *8s ss.5.

TRAMPS OF MOJAVE
DEATH VALLEY HOBOS ARE a
WORTHLESS LOT.
VIII Endure Terrible Hardships in
Order to Sustain Their Worthless
Lives Without Being Forced
TO Work.

The wonders Of the hobo" kingdom
are the tramps who live out in the
MoJave desert-a part Of which, Death
valley, is the hottest place on the
face of the earth.
These white tramps live with the
Pluto Indians and are locally known
as Arabs" They are Of different
species, more worthless, II possible.
than any other branch of their tribe.
and are an interesting study in that
they will suffer thirst, heat and almost
death in order to get enough to sus.
tain their worthless lives without
work.
The desert tTamp's clothes are usu-
ally CASTOR garments that he has
found, begged or perhaps stolen
faded, frayed and full Of holes-and
his broken shoes usually are wrapped
in cloth so as to protect his feet
from the burning sands. He carries a
bundle consisting OF provisions and a
few empty beer bottles.
On reaching a ranch he will make
for the spring, and after drinking his
I'LL lie down on the shady side of the
house and sleep for hours, or until
he smells the odor of the coming
meal. Then he patiently waits for a
hand out" and is OF to the next
ranch.
And thus he keeps up his rounds
from one end of the desert to the
other with no object in view; no hope
for the future-only that he may live
from day to day without laboring.
At night he will sleep in an alfalfa
field, or in a shallow brooklet with his
head resting upon a rock for a pill
low, and he thus can sleep soundly.
with the thermometer at ITO or 115.
Arising from his cool bed, he fills
his beer bottles with water, eats his
breakfast, and again resumes his long
tramp, which is never to end. He
follows the trail, having no compass
and knowing little or nothing OF the
country beyond, only that 1t is 80
miles to the next spring, and twice
that distance to the next ranch. He
may reach his destination and he
may not.
frequently he falls a victim to the
heat, or thirst. for men have died of
thirst though having jars Of water in
their possession. The heat has burned
out the spark of life, or literally burst
the head open.
The desert tramp is more desperate
than his brother OF civilization. The
fierce climate has brought out his
brutal nature, and his hand is against
anyone he meets in this desolate coun-
Try, where everything in nature is at
war, even the elements. Without the
slightest hesitation he will take the
life of a prospector or tourist in order
to obtain food or water which his vic
tim may carry.

Kiss SPOILED Divorce

One long Olga Nethersolic oscula-

too much for Mrs Wenning of West
Berwick, Pa, recently. She was just
about to leave John-in fact, they had
concluded to part, and had divided the
household goods and money and had
everything arranged to quit the do
nestle fireside. And then because she
didn't want to make the parting en-
tirely unromantic, Mrs Wenning de-
cided she would kiss John farewell.
John agreed. And right there came
the trouble with this separation. John
kissed and held it so long that Mrs.
Wenning just couldn't break away.
1t was like one Of those honeymoon
kisses which Mrs. Wenning still re-
membered and suddenly she threw I'D
her hands and had relapse. Now
they've made up. John Wenning ought
to be hired as an adjunct to some di.

While an Austrian was winning a
small fortune by sleeping on a train,
n Frenchman was taking action
against the Paris-Lyons-Medite
can railway because he slept too
much. This was a man who bought
ticket from Marseilles to Lyons, fell
asleep, and was carried past his sta
ton to TrevouK. He straightway sued
the company, alleging that his bust
hess was damaged because he did
not get of at Lyons, and that it was
the comrany's business to awaken him
at the proper destination. He also
wanted to be reimbursed the price OF
his return ticket to Lyons. The court,
however, dismissed the action, main
tanning that passenger must look
out for his own station as far as fall
ing asleep was concerned, and that
the company could not be expected to
know whether a man was awake or

Keep Your Child Fearless.

From the moment Of the average
child's first fall when the mother
cries out and picks him up with such
manner and words that he screams
with terror, the instilling of fear GOES
on. The average child begins bv be
Ing carefree. but the average loving
mother undermines that confidence
with The most earnest industry The
forbidden fruit Of the tree of knowI-
edge is forced upon the child until his
naturally erect, fearless mental car
riaee sradually becomes distorted. and
he stoops and bows to the inevitable.
SO writes Clara Louise Burnham. in
Appleton's.
To allow fear-ridden conversation to
take place in the presence of children
talk concerning sickness or disaster.
IS another molding influence. robbing
them of their gladness. teaching them
fearful resignation to inimical irresist-
ible powers. Even though they show
no evidence of it at the time It is sink
Ing into the curious. eager thought and
must bear fruit.
