More fascinating than a fairy tale
was this marvellous book 10 the child.
Only a few novels were found on
the shelves Of her home library. and
these were old-fashioned romauces.
When Uncle Toms Cabin" came out
Margaret was young girl. On Sat
urday afternoon she began reading
It. and IL was late bedtime when she
laid IL down. To read an exciting
book on Sunday was against her
youthful principles, but Margaret
could not resist the desire to read a
little more about little Eva and Un-
Gle Tom. It did not seem quite so
wrong to read standing as 1t did seat
ed comfortably in a chair, so she
stood before the window and read all
Sunday afternoon until 1t was time
to light the lamps.
1t was the custom In this family
to read aloud in the evening, and
thus they shared the pleasure and
profit OF their books. ''Harper's Mag
azine" was read and discussed in the
same way; also a favorite Juvenile
David Copperfield" was the first OF
Charles Dickens book to take hold
OF Margaret's heart and open for her
the doors into q world of delight.
Until the June day when he died she
never lost an opportunity to read
everything he wrote
In the beginning of Margaret's life
books were to her as real as people,
and the characters of the printed
page were as much a part of her be-
ing as those she met on the street or
talked with at the table. Books be-
came to her as gold to the miser, as
new fields to the explorer, or a new
discovery to the scientist. And the
great pleasure she was to have in
them originated in the little home
library which was the chief treas
ure of her childhood

THE ONE WHO FOLLOWS.

One day an old umbrella mende]
brought his skeleton frames ane
t1nkering tools into the alley at the
back of my office. AS he sat on a
box in the sun mending the broken
and torn umbrellas, I noticed that lie
seemed to take unusal pains, testfnp
the cloth, carefully measuring and
strongly sewing the covers. Being
always interested in any one who
does a piece Of work we'll, went out
to talk with him a few minutes.

marked.
"Yes," he said, working without
looking up; 81 try to do good work"

I suggested.

Then why are you SO particularly

next fellow who comes along" he
answered simply. eff I put on shod-
dy cloth or do bad work, they will
find it out in a few weeks, and the
next member that comes along Will

Yes, saw; and I wished that every
worker in every trade and profession
had as generous a conception of his
duty to his calling as this itinerant
umbrella mender.-Golden Rule.

A little sun, little rain.
4 soft wind blowing from tho

And woods and fields are sweet

And warmth within the noun

So simple Is the earth we tread,
So quick with love and life her

Ten thousand years have dawned and

And still her magic Is the same.
A little love, little trust.
A soft impulse. a sudden dream
And life as dry as desert dust
IL fresher than a mountain stream.

PETERSON GETS
NOMINATION
CONTINUED from Page one,

There was a full delegation from ev-
cry county excepting Warren. which
was entitled to Ave delegates but which
was represented by only one He cast
the vote of his country in favor of
Michael Dufy
The organization committee had pro-
vided in it's resolutions that Mayor
Becker, the permanent chairman
should address the convention, but he
declined. saying that he was neither
prepared nor would the time permit.
The Honan delegates were probably
the most active of any in the conven-
ton. IF you can't vote for Peterson
vote for Honon" was the word they
passed around.
The Rev NJ Byrne. former pastor of
the Sacred Heart Catholic church but
now of Lafayette. sat with the Lafay-
cite delegation as a delegate. He was
one Of the most popular delegates in
the hall
billy" Blodgett of the Indianapolis
News, having heard that today's con-
vention was to be big powwow, blew
into town early and was rather dis
appointed to find the whole such a tame
affair.
Mayor Durgan of Lafayette was one
of the prominent democrats present. He
had been mentioned at one time as a
possible candidate for the nomination,
but he himself was most active to kill
that report.
The Lake county democrats are high
ly pleased about the result. Peterson
was their choice for many weeks, and
they take great pride in having secured
his nomination.
The convention attracted many who
were not delegates and even a few re-
publicans found time TO peep In for a
few minutes. A. F. Knots was on
Holman street, but did not cross the
tracks to go to Huehn's hall.
John Barney Peterson, the nominee
of the day, Is said to have all the
swedes Of Porter county with him be-
cause of his Swedish sounding name.
He is, in faot Of Irfsh-Amertoan de-

HIRED MAN PULLS Up
THE POTATO PLANTS
Especial TO THE TINES

Clarke Station, June s.-What Victor
Molander does not know about farm
ing and truck gardening would make
a book bigger than the world could
hold A farmer who was beguiled in
hiring Victor, found that there is a vast
difference in what his pseudo hired
man actually knows about rustic occu-
pations and what he thinks he knows
Victor was first turned loose in
potato patch. and says when he had
finished that Irish paradise, 1t looked
like the stamping ground of a Kansas
cyclone. Victor meant to pull out the
weeds but instead he extrfcated potato
plants. He was next turned loose in
the garden with a hoe. He was
grand success there far as the
vegetables were concerned for he razed
them all. When the proprietor of the
place learned of Victor's achievements
he did not take time to order a finely
steel engraved parchment of dismissal
but fired him instanter.

Attorney John b. Peterson of Crown
Point as the leading candidates.
Everything seemed to hinge on the
Laporte delegation. the Michigan City
end Of which had not arrived up to
noon. With the first arrival of the
delegates there came report that
Duffy had broken into the ranks Of the
northern tier of counties and had bag
ged thirteen of the Laporte delegation
1t was known fact that If the three
north counties Lake Porter and La
porte stood together they could nomi-
nate Peterson, but with the report of
Duffy's strength no work was carried
on along this line. An attempt was
then made to bring E. P. Honan of
Rensselaer, into the race for the pur-
pose of dividing Duffy's strength adm
eventually throw 1t into Petersons
ranks. Honan was not an active can
didate in his behalf. When the con-
vention adjourned after the first ses-
sion at Huehns Hall, the convention
promised to have a lively contest on
its hands
Charley Murphy the tenth district
chairman called the convention to ord
er shortly after eleven o'clock, and ap-
pointed E. P. Honan the temporary
chairman of the convention. The latter
at once proceeded to appoint the mem
bers of the organization committee and
committee on resolutions. the names
having been slated in advance He pre-
faced his executive work with a few
broad slams at the late lamented re-
publican convention at Lafayette" as
he put it and said that neither had a
committee been appointed in Washing
ton six weeks in advance nor that as

should break into the Laporte delega-
