Our readers we know will be griev-
ed to hear of the death, of Mrs.

She was the wife of Rev. Isaac John

prominent business man of nenison,
and of Fl. B. Johnson the farmer and
veteran assessor of Union township
At one time the father and mother
lived in Denison occupying the home
lust west of the NJ. e. church. The
excellent record of her boys in our
midst speaks louder than any words
we can say as to her character. She
was noble Christian woman full OF
good works, willing to go to any
LEM for her neighbors and those
needing aid. She was about eighty
years old, and her husband, who
survives her is a few years her senior
The two having been companions for
over sixty years he is stricken indeed
at her death, and is only buoyed up
by looking forward to seeing hel
again before many years. Mrs. D.
| o. johnson. her daughter-in. law, went
to Ferguson and remained some days
to comfort the bereaved one. We
shall print a full notice as to the life

THE COURT IS
STILL GRINDING
VERDICT FOR MRS. BURNETT IN The CASE
AGAINST MRS. LANG.
MUCH EQUITY WORK YET
Jury Directed to Make Verdict for Mr.. Wangler
in bis Criminal Case. ASewer Tax Case
on Wednesday Afternoon.

The time of court has been taken
up in the last week largely with two
cases. AS we went to press last week
the $4,000 damage euit of Mrs. Nell
lie Burnett against Mrs. Lenora Lang
was being tried. By having some
evening sessions the case went to the
jury by Saturday. The jury was out
all night and into Sunday. Finally
an agreement came and sealed YER
dict made which was opened Monday
afternoon. The jury had found for
the plaintiff and fixed the damage at
$500. It is rumored that on the first
ballot the jury stood one to eleven in
favor of the plaintiff. Her side lost
on succeeding ballots until four were
ready to vote for the defense. Then
was the dead set and a compromise
verdict finally came at 5000. Some
of the testimony for the defense. no.
tably that of the detective Tracy was
ruled out by the court The
younger men on the jury insisted
that some damages be given.
There followed case the same day
which brought many as spectators
" no delight in what is termed sensa-
tional testimony. A young woman
appeared with her baby, born March
Is. charging that E. j. Wangler, a
rural mail carrier. was the father Of
the child, and that she was led to al
lowing this state of affairs by his
promises to marry her. They had
been at dance in the hall at Boy
er. She could but present her own
testimony as to details of the occur
rnece. that of her sister that Mr..
Wangler took her home that night.
and that her babe was born. The
court on motion Of the defense took
the case from the jury and directed a
verdict for Mr.. Wangler. Since then
Miss Pithan has began suit to make
Mr.. Wangler care for her child. w.
A. Helsel of Odebolt appeared for the
defendant and County Attorney
Klinker for the State. From the
action of the defense it would APP
pear that Mr.. Wangler expected to
show that he was not responsible
for the girls condition.
The criminal cases against Ahart
and Armour were continued. The
case Of E. T.. Cochran against the
city for illegally assessing sewer
tax against his lots in block 118 was
begun Wednesday after dinner.
The sewer tax was $28.69. Mr..
Cochran claims that the council did
not legally order the sewer on Lo-
Gust street in 1905.
The four cases against the Denison
Clothing Co. are on the equity as.
signment and may come up for trial
before the Judge. These will be hot
ly contested.

rHrY RuIE zee HousKHoLp

The curious thing to me, says a promi-
nent writer, is why some Of the science
that is expended on helpless babies is not
continued to the child as it advances in
age. The American baby is an example
for infants the world over, so well trained
and disciplined is it. But. the American
child Of five years and up is. properly
placed in the list OF horrible examples.
The very mothers who are strictest with
infants in arms, which are too young TO
oppose their wills to those of the powers
that be, permit children who are little
older to rule the household and make
the lives of visitors buFdensome. The
infant is raised according to srules as.
immutabie as were the laws OF the
Medes and Persians. The infants food is
measured to the last drop, his meals are.
timed to the minute, he must sleep 30
long at time and SO many times day,
and he must gain 90 much week or the
physician looks serious. The infants
sisters and brothers, to the contrary, eat
when and where they please, go to bed
when it suits them, interrupt the conver-
sations Of their elders to speak 'piece"
they have learned at school, and other
wise assert their superiority OF restraint.
If any think this is pessimistic point
of view it must be because be is not inti-
mately acquainted with any American
child-charmingIy dressed and charm
ingly pretty child, but self willed to de-.
gree. 1t was an Englishman talking the
other day who said that special ProVi-l
dence must watch over America to allow
such unbearable children to become such
charming men and women. Aud it is
true that as an infant we are all that
sypchologist could desire, and we gener-#
ally come to our senses by the time We
have reached 2l, but between those ages
vie are altogether hopeless, except in
few isolated cases.

HOW AUSTRALIAN GIRLS LIVE

Many Australian girls live right up in
the bush, or station. which are miles
away from any town or village, and their
time is largely occupied BY riding and
driving; they are as much at home on q
horse as a duck is in the water, and think
nothing Of riding twenty miles or so 10

share Of their time; however, and any
day they are liable to be left without SER

but are In no wise daunted by such an
occurrence. Then the bush girl comes
down to the capital for tlle season, and.
far from appearing country pumpkin or

CURING INSOMNIA

What, then, can the sleepless woman
do TO herself? Let her note, in the first
place, some things that she ought not TO
do. She ought not to drink tea or coffee,
especially toward bedtime; for these stim-
ulate the brain.
She ought not to spend all her time in
doors, but rather live much in the open
air and breathe deeply the while. She
ought not, Immediately before retiring, to
read thrilling stories of battle, murder,
and sudden DEATH" She ought, above all,
says Samuel McComb, in Harper's Bazaar,
not to fear the idea Of not sleeping; and
for fear of not sleeping will be dissipated
by the frm conviction that. even though
she should remain awake for hours, some
at least Of the benefits of sleep can be OBJ.
tanned by using those hours Alright. One
goes to bed primarily to rest; secondar-
lily to sleep. If one does not sleep, one
should not keep tnrniug over and over,
growing more and more impatient with
ones self, but should impose on the mind
calm, peace, and state as near yacuity
as possible. As has been we'll said, sleep
is like pigeon. Il comes TO you if you
have the appearance of not looking for it.
1t flies away if you try to catch it." If
possible, approach bedtime with feeling
of indifference and learn TO say within
yourself, I'll l sleep-well; if don't
sleep-slso well, though not 90 WE'LL"
This little lesson thoroughly learned will
have the most beneficial influence in at
tracing sleep. Assuming, then, that the
sufferer has removed the physical causes
Of sleeplessness, that noise; and light, and
material discomforts are excluded-there
is now no reason for the insomnia.
She has but to suggest to herself prop
erly or talk to herself sleep for
a while, and it will come. Relax the
limbs Close the. eyes. Inhale a few
deep breaths, and repeat silently and
slowly some such for mula as this:
''There is now no reason why / should
not sleep. Therefore I will sink down
lower. l am sinking down. / know
| am going to sleep. / feel sleep coming,
coming, It is here. | sleep, sleep, a
long, unbroken sleep"

THE Cherokee Rose

There is beautiful romance connected
with the Cherokee rose. A young Indian
chief of the Seminole tribe was taken
prisoner by his enemies, the Cherokees,
and doomed to torture, but fell SO SER
iously i'll that it became necessary to wait
for his restoration to health before COM
mitting him to the fire.
As he lay prostrated by disease in the
cabin of the Cherokee warrior the daugh-
ter Of the latter, a young, dark faced maid
was bis nurse. She fell in love with the
young chieftaln and, wishing to save his
life. urged him to escape. But he would
not do SO unless she would fee with him.
She consented. Before they had gone
far, impelled by regret at leaving home,
she asked permission of her lover to re.
turn for the purpose of bearing away
some memento of it. So, retracing her
footsteps, she broke sprig from the
white rose which climbed up the poles
of her fathers tent and, preserving it
during her flight through the wilderness,
planted it by the door of her new home
in the land of the Seminoles. And from
that day this beautiful flower has always
been known throughout the southern
states by the name of the Cherokee rose.

COST FOR TRAMPs


During the month of January there
were eighty-fonr men committed to the
workhouse by magistrates, for trespassing
upon the property Of the various railroads.
Of this number, forty-two we're committed
for ten days each, and the others for Ave
day terms.
A summing up Of the total Of days the
men received in sentences, shows an az
gregate Of $50 days this month. The Levy
Court allows the workhouse trustees forty
cents day for the keep Of each prisoner.
Consequently the tax payer paid S252 dur.
ing the month for the keep Of an idle class
Of men, who we're arrested, while on
their way through the County. After
they get out Of Jail they go to the railroad
again and often times are rearrested.
This 1852 does not include the cost
which the conatables and tile magistrates
collect for committing she men.
The number of commitments last month
was obtained from the workhouse Off.
cials.
The sum mentioned is email al cons
pared with other months. January was
:an unusually doll month for the railroad
police. One Of those officers, the police
say. arrested sixteen men ID two days and
dill we're committed to the workh0use.
