The Power Of Music.

Eurfpides (B. c. lS0-40S) was one of
the celebrated tragic Greek poets who
discoursed on music in this wise: mo
one has found out how to soothe with
music and sweet symphony those bit.
ter pangs by which death and sad
misfortune destroy families; and yet
to assuage such griefs by music were
wisdom" The music Of the Greeks
evidently had the power to stir or
calm emotions, although neither melo-

JUDGE CHARGED WITH GRAFT
Arrest of Jurist, Latest Development,
in Forest County investigation,
Causes a Sensation.

Crandon. A sensation was caused
In the graft prosecution in Forest
county when james A. Walsh, Coun-
~ judge, was arrested on three diff
ferent warrants charging him with
graft. The present sheriff being un-
der Indictment, the warrants were
served by the marshal of Crandon
Walsh has always stood in high
esteem in the county and was "A power
in it's affairs and its politics. He
served as district attorney in the
county from 1903 to 1906, and was
elected county Judge in 1909. taking
office the year following. On the
first warrant on which he was arrest.

Discouragcment.

There are women all over this
broad land who are growing old and
stopped with the burden OF discour-
bad that they could not be worse, and
we can always find those who are not
as comfortable as we are and are also
carrying the same load Of discourage
ment.
We cannot expect the boys and girls
to be self-reliant, to cultivate self-re-
straint and stick-to-itiveness and grit
when they see the mother and father
sit down and give up.
There are hard places in all lives,
disappointments. reverses and dis
couragements are bound to come
some time or other in all lives, so that
it is necessary that in early youth the
right value of things should be
taught.
The boy or girl who learns TO APP
preciate the processes of nature that
are every day going on under the
eye, to enjoy the beauty OF sunrise
or a sunset. to see God in every
thing, has power that no amount
of book learning could ever give.
Far too many of both men and
women have an idea that to be rich
in the possession of money is the
chief aim of life.
Money Is truly necessity and one
that we cannot do without; but the
riches of well-stored mind cannot
be compared to full purse.
Discourage ment and worry often are
the result Of tired, over-worked
nerves. Get out into the open air,
take a brisk walk, call on less for
tunate neighbor, forget self and un.
pleasant thoughts will fly away.
II we could remember that we live
but a moment at time and that
often the bridges of encouragement
and failure are but mirages that fade
away as We approach, life could be
much fuller and sweeter.

Plan New Baseball League.

Menasha.-At meeting of base
ball magnates, representing various
cities through the Fox river valley
and along the lake shore, held in this
city, plans were promulgated for the
organization of a league to be known
as the Fox River Valley baseball
league. The cities of Green Bay,
Appleton, Menasha, Oshkosh, Fond
du Lac, Manitowoc and Sheboygan
were represented at the meeting. The
promoters of the league feel certain
that at least four cities represented
in the Wisconsin-Illinois league last
summer will not be members of that
league during the coming season, and
they are making their plans accord
ingly. 1t is planned to play three
games a week.

Liqujd Foods for lnvalids.

There IS a mistaken Idea among
many people that beef extracts are
very nourishing: they are more slim
ulating than nourishing, but should al
ways be included in the lnvalid's diet
Those who know. say that many peo-
pie have been starved to death being
fed on beef extract. Beef essence and
tea may be made IN the home at less
expense and are Of greater value az
food.
Beef tea contains albuujcons mat
ter, extractives, salts and small
amount Of fat. The fiber Thich re-
mains after these substances are re-
moved contains much proteid matter
which IL a valuable food. Although
the meat In tasteless, with the addition
OF seasoning It may be used as e
wholesome food.
Beef Essence-Uss a pound Of
