Christmas Shopping Thoughts.

Procrastination is the thief OF
time, especially when Christmas
shopping is deferred. A person
can buy a Christmas gift now in
less than half the time it takes to
make the purchase if it is delay
ed until the week before Christ
mas, when the shops are crowd,
Ell. More than this, when Chfista
mas shopping is done early there
is more time for deliberation,
which is weighty consideration.
But the principal reason for
early shopping IS that it is mer-
ciful to the sales people. To the
young man or the young woman
behind the counter, the Christ
mas season is a time OF wearying
and unceasing labor, extending
almost to the dawn of Christmas
day. If people will delay their
purchases until the last, then all
will want to be waited upon at
the same time. Frequently there
is ill-humor because the weary
clerk cannot give immediate at
tention, and this is contrary to
the spirit of Christmas, which is
peace and good will toward men.
The beautiful custom of max
ing Christmas gifts is SO widely
and firmly established that the
amount of shopping as the sea
son approaches is prodigious and
seems to be increasing year by
year. The motto of every shopper
this year should be DO it early"

OBITUARY.

Lorenzo r. Ocker.

The funeral of the late l.. r.
Ocker, was held from his home
on w. South street yesterday an
ternoon. The funeral was under
the auspices of the Lodge OF Elks
The officers from South Bend be
ing present. Rev. w. S. Howard
OF South Bend, formerly of this
city assisted. The following OBJ
ituary was read at the funeral
which was held at the residence
at , o'clock this afternoon.
ON Sunday last, December 5,
1909, there passed out of this
life, one OF our best known and
respected citizens in the person
OF Lorenzo Ocker. He was born
at Wooster Ohio, March II, 1850,
his parents being Silas and
Frances Rogers-Ocker. With his
parents he came to Butler, In
'diana when four years old, and
during the remainder of his life
he resided there and at other
places in Indiana, for the past
twenty years having been ares
ident of Plymouth Indiana. He
was married to Grace Kipfer
September %, 1900 who survives
him. He was the eldest of five
children, and leaves his wife.
three brothers and one sister to
mourn his passing away, as well
as hosts of friends here and alt
Butler, in which places he had
livetl most OF his life.
The deceased went in and out
among our people for two de-
cades with a genial smile and a
kind word for every one with
whom he came in contact. Nc
matter where he was, or under
what adverse circumstances he
'labored, he never forgot to be a
gentleman. He had no enemies
No one knew him but to love
and respect him for his many
good qualities of head and heart
As such he will be greatly miss.
ed and not soon forgotten by the
large circle of friends he leaves
behind him.
1t is beautiful thought wher
one passes out OF this life tC
know that he will be remembered
by his friends and that his faults
whatever they may have been
will be covered by the broad
mantle OF charity. In perpetual
ing such remembrance, no monu
ment can be too magnificent
none too simple: and the hum
ble gravestone in the countr,
~h1rehvard, speaks as eloquen
lv as the elaborate tomb OF tn,
greatest of earth-each but tn,
expression of the love and rev
erence of those left behind. 1t i
proper therefore. that we, il
whose hearts are treasured tn,
virtues OF our departed friend
should keep his memory greer
that it fade not from recollection

BASKET BALL TEAM.
Candidates for the Roosevelt An
MAS Club Honors, Says
Rochester.
{ Rochester Republican

Ni\oSiiSStCi NSprDilCd1l)
The Plymouth Tribune says
"a second basket ball team from
this city played at Rochester
Friday evening and returned to
Plymouth Friday evening with
glowing accounts of their victory
by a score of 81 to 49,"
The facts are that the r. II. S.
Jrs. did the graceful for the Wis
itors to the tune of 80 to z, indi-
eating that the Plymouth boys
were simply outclassed. Roches-
ter's basket ball enthusiasts have
made study of the science OF
the game, and there are few that
can compare with any team OF
Rochester players that can be
put on the floor. The Plymouth
boys did no person any greater
harm than themselves when they
falsified the game. Better take

BLOW TO NEAR BEER.
Marion Circuit Court Renders an
Adverse Decision in
Case.

The circuit court jury at Ma
rion, after several hours DELHI
Grafton, returned verdict the
other day in the case Of the state
against John A. Sullivan, finding
the defendant guilty of selling
malt liquor and fixing his pun
ishment at $50 fine. Sullivan
was found guilty on the second
count OF the Indictment which
charged the sale of an intoxicat-
ing liquor an1 the penalty was
placed at the minimum. The first
count of the indictment charged
the keeping OF place for the IL
Legal sale of Intoxicating liquors,
and had finding of guilty been
returned on hrs count the mini
mum penalty that could have
been assessed would have been a
fine of $50 and thirty days i'm
prisonment in the county Jail.
Sullivan announced after the
verdict that he would appeal the
case 10 the supreme court. The
Ca oital City Brewing company OF
Indianapolis solH Sullivan the
dry beer and gave. its guaran-
tee that it was not intoxicating.
The evidence submitted was al
together technical, being given
by chemists who mad analysed
the dry" beer and who were
posted on the process of brew
ing and manufacturing malt Ii
quors. The testimony of the ex-
pert witnesses differed material
ly on this point, but THE, jury evil
IDENTIFY believed the statements OF
the states witnesses.
An appeal OF the case to the SUI
preme court will mean a test OF
the dry beer" proposition in In
diana. The brewing company it
is surmised, will be anxious Tor
the test since it has been the
positive statement OF it's officials
that in dry" beer there is no fer
menting or other process that
would make THE beverage liquor
in any sense and as the statutes
defines liquor.

is OF SOME USE.
DR.. James r. Walsh, Noted
Physician, is Very Essential
in Human Anatomy.

DR.. James r. Walsh, dean of
Fordham Medical college OF New
York city. recently lectured on
the subject of Science and Faith.
Both science and faith are alb
stractions and hand Ito handle. DR..
Walsh, dealt especially with SCI
entists and faith and showed that
while in the popular opinion SCI
ence and faith are in opposition,
there is really no such condition
of affairs existing between sci
entistS and religious faith, but
that on the contrary the greatest
scientists of the last two centur-
les have been men of deep re-
ligious conviction. Taking as spe-
cial illustrations the men who are
fathers of modern medicine. DR..
Walsh showed that the general
belief that science is sterilizing
forth is absolutely untrue, even
among physicians themselves,
who as a class are the most UNI
orthodox among scientific men.
Morgandi. the Italian, who first
taught physicians to examine
every organ of the body in study
ing the symptoms of disease, A.
Brooker, who instituted the COM
mon practice of tapping the
chest in examining for lung
TROUBLES and Schwann, who first
taught that the body was made
up OF individual cells, were taken
in turn and shown to be the most
pious iof men. In the course of his
lecture DR.. Walsh uncovered
many interesting facts OF physi-
ology, one of them being that
the human heart sends out blood
at as fast rate ais the water runs
into II ordinary bath tub when
both taps are on full force. He
also disputed the notion that the
appendix IS useless organ and
that it can be removed without
impunlty. This belief he holds to
be utterly untrue and says that
the appendix should never be re-
moved unless in cases where it is
positively known to be diseased
badly. and even then Its removal
will be attended by uncomfort-
able results.

WASTE OF THE
LUMBER MILLS
SAWDUST FLOUR NOW
USED FOR VARIOUS
PURPOSES.
An Ingredient in the Making of
Dynamite, Lineoleum, Xyolite
and Other Commodities.

Flower from sawdtpst is anoth-

The United States Consul at
Christiania. Norway, has sent to
this government suggestion
along this line which may be OF
value to American lunbernen
who are wrestling with the prob
lem of saw dust waste.
The flour in question is not the
kind which goes into the making
OF light. fluffy biscuits, and the
other kind which are not light,
or flaky pastry. but it is an in
gredient of dynamite. linoleum,
xvoiite, which for the informa-
ton OF the man on the street is
kind OF artificial flooring. and
other things. 1t is not put for
ward as a new discovery, for it
has been in use for several years
in Europe and to small extent IN
this country.
The wood flour is ground in a
cheap mill. very similar to those
which grind corn and rye. Pine
and spruce sawdust is used in
Europe. and after passing
through the stones and the bolt
| ing chest. it is sacked and baled
for shipment. 1t is then worth
twslve to thirteen dollars a ton.
The -four has number OF uses,
one of which is in the making OF
dynamite. 1t is the absorbent for
the nitro-glycerine, which is the
explosive ingredient. Wood flour
| dynamite is inferior to that made
with infusOrial earth as the alb
sorbent. but it serves many pur-
ooses. and is cheaper. But dyna-
mite is one OF the smallest pro-
ductive users for the product,
L.inolenm makers mix it with lin
seed oil and give body to their
floor coverings.
The flour mill fills an import
ant place in the manufacture o.
xyolite. kind OF artificial floor
ing. resembling wood in weight
and stone in other respects. 1t is
usdl in kitchen floors, and in
halls corridors, cafes. restaurants
and public rooms. 1t is impervi-
Gus to water. and is practically
hre-proof. 1t is floor material in
some of the German war vessels.
1t is so used because it is not liza
bic to take fire or splinter il
struck by shells.
Many additional uses for wood
flour will probably be found. The
amount of sawkbust to be had in
this county is practically rrnlin-
tied. and millmen will welcome
any plan that will lessen the
waste of the sawdust dump. Nor
way exports thousands of tons
OF this sawdust flour yearly, and
the United States takes some Oh
it. Germany is a large manufac-
turer also, and has been for years
England is an extensive buyer
and much goes to France.
