II Made a Great Difference.

A Linn Grove girl found a pack
age Of love letters that had been writ
ten to her mother by her father before
they were married, says the Sioux Ra-
pids Republican. The daughter saw
she could have a little sport and read
them to her mother substituting her
own name for that Of her mother
and a fine young man for that Of her
father. The mother jumped up and
down in her chair, shifted her feet,
seemed terribly disguised and forbade
her daughter having anything to do
witha young man who wrote such
sickening and nonsensical stuff In a
girl. Wien the young lady handed
the letter to her mother TO read the

Seeing by Telephone.

To allow people conversing by tele-
phone to see one another is known to
be the ultimate goal of those invent
ors to whose labor we are indebted
for the evolution of the telephoto-
graphic apparatus. AS the problem did
not so far admit of any practical soiu-
ton, inventors have, in fact, been sat
isfied with transmitting. by wire, writ
ing and pictures. diagrams. hand-writ-
ing and the like. According to re-
ports just received from Denmark, a
satisfactory solution is now offered.
In fact, two young Danes (the broth
ers Anderson) recently called at the
office of Politiken, the well known
Copenhagen daily, in order to submit
to the editor the principle of their
idea, particulars of which cannot yet
be given out. Unlike the Korn APP
paratus, optical transmission, accord
ing to their scheme, is not effected

Federal Injunction Against Bank
Officers.

Guthrie, Okla, Oct. "A temporary
injunction rstraining the Office oil
the Columbia Bank and Trust Com
pany of Oklahoma City, which failed
yesterday, from paying out any funds
of the bank was granted by Federal
Judge Cotterel here to-day as the
result of a suit filed by the National
Insurance Company of Chicago and G..
c. Smith of Springfield, Mo.
Alleging hopeless insolvency OF the
bank and the insufficiency Of assets
to pay deposits in full, the petition
asks the court to compel the distribu-
ton of the funds pro rata.
The petition also asks that a receiV-
or for the bank be appointed.
The injunction order is made return
able before Judge Cotterel next Mon
day.
The National Insurance Company
holds a certificate of deposit in the
bank for $4,000 and Smith is de-
poster to the extent of $70,5OO.

Time at the North Pole.

At the noorth pole time is nothing,
and IL one were residing at the north
pole it would be unnecessary to wind
ones watch. You are always at II
o'clock and can't walk out of the ho-
tel without walking south. All times
of day meet at the poole, as thhe meet
ing-place Of all the meridians. A man
sitting with the invisible mathematic
point right under him would be in all
"a hours at once. Or a twenty-four-
hour watch placed on the pole could
be made to point to the correct time
in every part of the world. There used
ed to be something of an approxima-
ton to this in the extreme north of
Norway, where the degrees of longi-
tude squeeze in, until recent days.Cap-
tains of Norwegian coasting schoners
will tell you how inconvenient it was
TO charge between the time ofHolland
at Bergen and that of Crete at the
North Cape, while correct local time
was maintained. General Norwegian
time became indispensable.-[L

Mother"

Time has scattered the snowy flakes
on her brow, plowed burrows in her
cheeks-but is she not sweet and beau
tiful now? The lips which have kiss
ed many tears from the childish cheek
are the sweetest lips in all the world.
The eye is dim, yet it CLOVIS with the
rapt radiance of holy love which can
never fade. Oh, yes, she is dear old
mother! Her sands of time are nearly
run out, but feeble as she is, she VIII
go farther and reach down lower FOR
YOU than will any other on earth. You
cannot walk into midnight where she
cannot see you; you cannot enter a
prison whose bars shall keep her out;
Won cannot mount a scaffold too high
for her to reach and bless you. In
evidence of her deathless love, when
the world shall despise and forsake
YOU. when it leaves you by the way
side to die unnoticed, the dear old
mother will gather you up In her fee
BILE arms, carry you home and tell you
of your virtues until you almost for
get that your soul is disfigured by
vices. Love her tenderly and cheer
her declining years with holy de-
yction.

Men Past Forty in Dancer.

Men past middle life have found
comfort and relief in Foley's Kidney
Remedy, especially for enlarged pros
tate gland, which is very common
among elderly men. J.. +. Morris,
of Dexter, KY, writes: Up TO a
year ago my father suffered from
kidney and bladder trouble and sew
eral physicians pronounced it enlarge
ment of the prostate gland and ad-
vised an operation. On account of his
age we were afraid he could not stand
it and I recommended Foleys Kidney
Remedy, and the first bottle relieved
him and after taking the second bot
tie he was 10 longer troubled with
this complaint" James II. Williams,

SunfIower Philosophy.

To act sassy and look vicious is a
great help in a fight.
Most of the new stories you hear Az
simply old ones with variations.
No man believes that he makes any
extra trouble around the house when
he is sick.
II men were as violent in their ac-
lions as in their thoughts, the world
soon be depopulated.
And it would help[some II men wou
only whit TO be be led into temptation
instead OF hunting it Up.
People who have no religious belief
are SO much like some church member
that they can exchange pulpits with
them.
II men had right good sense they
could see that seven-tenths of the
"schemes"offered to them are absolute
foolish.
Maybe one girl in fifty has two
men to choose between, but we don't
believe the girl ever lived that had her
pick OF three.
A difference between a boarding plac
and a home is that you can leave the
boarding place when 1t doesn't suit
YOU without any fear of scandal.

DEMOCRATS URGED
To be Up and Doing and Re.
deem the State From Rule
OF Republicanism.

The Hodgenville Herald has the fol-
lowing editorial in regard TO the pres
ent political situation and it applies
to Ohio County just as strongly as 1t
does to LaRue county:
1t is now only four weeks until the
election. Democrats of LaRue should
remember this and do what they can
individually and collectively to fur
ther the interests of the party by Civ
ing support to the full Democratic
ticket. The party has as its nominees
as good men as it ever put into the
field and they should receive tho sup
port of every Democrat. There are
more reasons than one for this. 1t
will not be long until we shall have
to decide whether the State remains
under control of the Republican par
ty or isbrought back to the Democrat
ic. The Herald knows that it is far
better for Kentucky to be governed by
the Democratic party; 1t believes that
II VIII De dlltT tue neat ObdlC CIV
ton, but it knows full we'll that there
is a doubt Of such desirable state Of
affairs unless the Democratic party ca
strengthen its ranks by the election of
its nominees this fall.
Lukewarmness on the part of the
voters and their failure to come to the
and TO work for the nominees
prior to the election might result in
a Generalization in the ranks in La
Rue county that would lessen the ma
jority that would be given the State
ticket at the future State election. A
similar falling off, though small, in
each OF the other counties would lose
us the State for Governor. We would
urge the Democrats to be on the look
out and to prevent any possibility OF
failure to gain success this year with
the county ticket and be ready TO do
LaRue county's share in presenting to
Democratic Governor when
the time arrives.

CANAL WILL Be READY
n 1915, Declares President Taft
In the Last of His
Set Speeches.

Tacoma, Wash, Oct. AFTER pass
ing two days in and about Seattle.
President Taft came to Tacoma to-
night and received from an audience
that througed the big armory one of
the most cordial greetings of his trip.
President Taft promised to-day to at
tend another exposition to be held on
the Pacific coast in 1915 in celebration
OF the completion of the PanamaCa-
nal Mr.. Taft said the date was beyond
his term Of office, but that his inter-
est in the Panama Canal and in the ex
tension Of trade on the Pacific had
been so great for many years that he
readily gave his promise to attend.
President Taft's unqualified state
ment in his speeches here that the
Panama Canal would be completed in
1915 aroused great enthusiasm, as the
entire Pacific coast is expecting to prof
it greatly by the short all-water
route from the Eastern seaboard and
the opening of European markets to
this section.
When the President left here at mid
night and headed south he had COM
pleted 5000 miles of his 13,000-mile
journey. In matter of elapsed time,
however, his journey was less than
one-third completed.
During the time he has been ION
the road" the President has made
eight speeches Of first importance
which have clearly set forth his views
on nearly every question of impor-
lance and he announced tonight that
he had completed the list of set ad-
dresses which he had planned before
leaving Beverly. The Presidents
speeches during the remainder of his
trip will be entirely extemporaneous
in character and will consist largely Of
references to and application Of
those he already has made.

COUNTY PAPER
BEST FRIEND
OF the School Teacher and
Patrons.
IS NOT ALWAYS APPRECIATED
For Its Full Value-A Few
Kind Words From One
WHO Knows.

The Southern School Journal has
been criticised in one or two sections
Of the State because of its apparent
failure to recognize the school happen
ings Of that section in the School
News. The criticism is just. There
are several sections of the State I'M
fairly represented in the news col
umns. For this there are two rea-
sons:
First, the failure of the county
newspaper TO place the Southern
School Journal on its exchange list
We are sending the Southern School
Journal each month TO about seventy
five county newspapers which we new
er see. We depend on these county pa
pers for the school news, finding this
a more satisfactory plan than de-
pending upon personal correspondence.
when we can secure the county pa
pers.
Second. the lack OF harmony and
cooperation existing between teach
ers and their local papers. One coun.
ty newspaper in August gave the
greater part Of an issue TO the teach
srs' institute, and in a footnote,
asked for the support Of the teachers,
stating that while its space had been
freely given, there seemed a total fail
ure on the part OF the teacher to APP
preciate the favors extended. There
are other papers, probably. in the
same position, but rather more long
suffering or else more optimistic.
The county newspaper is a friend
to the teacher-a friend from whom
We often borrow, and whom We sell
dom fully repay. The position We
secure, the successful entertainment
our school has given, the purchase
Of a library or bookcase or organ for
our school, the favorable comments on
our work-these are given space, graf
is. We may borrow our neighbours
paper in order TO read such comments,
and may even ask our neighbor to
give US the paper when he has finish
ed reading it, in order that we may
send it 10 a friend who, also, is not
a subscriber. When We see the edi-
tor, we may remember that it was
he who made such publicity pos
sible. aud we deluge him with thanks,
while the poor man stands smiling, pa
tiently, thinking of the coal bill which
the one dollar our subscription would
bring might help him to pay; and the
cake of soap he needs to rid his
hands Of printers ink, which might be
purchased by the five cents We should
pay for the extra paper TO send TO
our friend.
Besides. the county newspaper is
we'll worth the one dollar asked for 1t,
aside from the spirit Of corporation
which should be manifest by the en-
rollment of every teacher on its mail
ing list. Suppose it does not contain
news every weck-it is worth the
price Of the paper TO know that moth
ing of moment has happened in your
county.
Let us stand by the editor Of the
county paper lie works harder, re-
ceives less, and accomplishes more
than the majority of his subscribers
dream of--[Southern School Journal

Coming to the Front

Another proof that Beach is COM
ing to the front is the local N. P.
freight receipts. During the
month Of April the freight receipts
at Beach amounted to about $685.
600 and there was only one station
between Mandan and Glendive that
did more freight business, and that
was Dickinson. Dickinson exceed
ed Beach by but $1,000, the receipts
there being about $26, 900. This
certainly speaks wonders for Beach,
considering that Dickinson has a
population of 5000 while Beach is
scarcely 500. Many have said that
Beach would make a better town
than Dickinson, and it begins to
look now as if it will. 1t is time
for investors and capitalists to sit
up and take ntoice when a town of
500 will crowd a town of 5000
when it comes to business.

stock and fixtures. He had some
difficulty in securing a building
but finally succeeded in getting

out, making it suitable for store
building. Mr.. Lee stated before
leaving that this would only be a
temporary location and that he
was negotiating for another build
ing which he would be able to Sc.
cure later. He expects to open up
in a week or ten days.
