Scarcity Of Houses to Rent
--Lots Selling.

With the announcement of thu
owner OF the Perth Amboy Heights,
that the $50 remaining lots In that
tract will be offered for sale within
a very short time, the real estate
market In this city for the week re-
ceived its most decided impetus re-
corded during the past two months.
Other realty agents report probable
sales and many ventures ION the
carpet" 80. all in all, the dealers de-
clare it has been one of the most
prosperous weeks of the fall season
The Perth Amboy Heights are In
Brace avenue and considered very
desirable.
Scarcity OF houses to rent is the
complaint now of the real estate
agents. Many applications have
been turned down during the past
fourteen days and today things have
reached a worse climax than ever
before. In an endeavor to relieve
conditions several business men are
dickering for sites for new apart
ment houses and interesting news
from this source Is expected at most
any time. Leo Goldberger is laying
plans to erect an eight family house
at Keasbey for the exclusive use OF
the employees Of the Didier-March
company.
John Hanson and r. e. Comegys
passed q number of small transac-
lions during the last few days and
the firm OF Fraser Bros. reports
along the same line. They find the
demand for houses continually
growing, they say.

RE FLECIlONS

Sometimes, when a murderer is
about to pay the penalty Of his
crime, there are not a few ready to
come forward urging executive
elemency in the Communication OF a
sentence; and more than once GRIM
inals have been pardoned after q
r~idieulousiy inadequate punishment.
| Sympathy Is aroused for the un-
fortunate one, In apparent forgetfnl-
ness OF the suffering he has already
| entailed upon one Of more others.
Let us conine our sympathy to the
| victim of the crime, and withhold it
from the perpetrator thereof.
There is running at large In every
community one whose companion
ship we have learned to value, the
domestic dog. BY his usefulness In
! many ways, by his loyalty to the
members OF a given family, he en-
dears himself to those whose home
he inhabits. We give him free
| range, place almost no restrictions
upon him, and are indignant when
any are suggested.
But this same dog is almost the.
exclusive carrier of the germs of one
of the worst diseases known to
mankind, hydrophobia, rightly
dreaded because OF the most horri-
BILE death it entails. Since we give
our dog free range, he may at any
time. and wholly unsupported and
unknown TO us, become infected by
the bite OF another rabid dog. He
may himself be suffering from the
disease as q consequence. and his
saliva be virulent, days before any

cite notice.
what shall be done? XIII the
dog? Not at all, unless we have
reason to believe that he Is suffer-
Ing from the disease. What then !?
Put a muzzle on him. But that Is
SO unpleasant for him, IN n will
say. and then ask how we would
like to &C around muzzled. And
right here Is where the misplaced
sympathy comes in. We are think
ing or our dog, who n very little I'M
commoded BY a mnzzle. and not Of
the one or more who may suffer the
dread disease, if the o already.
unknown to us. had become himself
infected. Far better that every dog
should suffer a little Inconvenience,
If to wear a muzzie is Incokyenteht,
than fdr mi human to suffer even
the dread OF hydrophobia, let alone
Suffering the disease itself.
Our Mayor is right lii his proeiE-
nation. and every citizen should
stand BY him IN his attempt to make
arr city c-ss ss.s u~ussipiIity OF
this seourge. Far too many dogs,
both licensed and unlicensed, roam
our streets now. Those who have
no owners who think enough oil
Ilheni to secure q license should i'm.
mediatefy BIZ put away, while those
who have fond owners should Ill
least Be made ~innocuous By the
wearing of d muzzie. IL We have

Grace BassstPs Condition Critical

Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen Bassett
and children came back from Wal
nut, Kansas, Saturday on a sad
mission. Their little daughter
Grace, aged ten, was kicked by a
horse last fall and her left, kidney
was so seriously injured that it
was necessary to have it removed.
The operation was performed We'd
nesday afternoon. The injured
organ had become attached to the
other adjacent organs and the
operation was very difficult and
delicate one. The little one stood
the shock very well and rested well
Wednesday night, but her injury
was so serious and so many organs
are involved that her chance Of re-
eovery is very slight, and the
family have the sympathy of the
entire community in their mis-
fortune.

An ear of white corn raised by
A. II. Farrar of Bruner school
district in this township won first
prize over all other corn entered
in the contest for prizes offered by
Prof. Joyce to the various school
districts Of the county. This is by
no means the only prize Mr.. Far
rar has won on his corn; in fact,
his corn has habit Of winning,
which may be a profitable mint to
those who need good seed corn.
By the way, Jefferson township
corn took three of the five prizes,
two going to Plum GroYe district,
but the BLADE was unable to learn
who raised the corn.

LACLEDE, MISSOURI FRIDAY, FEBRUARY TO- 1911
Some Evening ReverIes.

Many a passionate child rules
the household. The little baby on
it's mothers knee goes into pas
sion because it's dinner is withheld
from him, or some toy denied him.
He shrieks, and strikes his mother,
and the mother says: Poor little
boy, he has such a passionate nat
ure; he can't be crossed" and
yields to him. She ought to spank
him-spank him hard-for being
in passion, and give him nothing
till his passion had cooled. The
child, though he is so young that
he cannot speak, if he is old enough
to lift his fist and strike blow de-
serves punishment, needs to have
a lesson of repression taught it.
The mother who neglects this in
creases the chances of her sons
going to the gallows. When the
child is older, there are better dis
ciplinary punishments than spank
ing, but when the child reaches
such an age that they are useful, it
may be too late, his temper may
have grown into a dominating
force in his character that cannot
be eradicated. Mothers sometime
say when child shows vile tenn
per and shrieks a good deal, that it
would endanger his life to punish
him; perhaps so, but you still
more endanger his future if you
don't punish him. Many gallows
tragedy has had it's beginning on
the mothers lap. We wish we
could write it in imperishable,
glowing letters on the walls
of every home - obedience,
obedience, obedienceI Obedience
to law-to household law; to pa
rental authority: unquestioning,
instant, exact obedience. Obe-
dience in the family; obedience in
the school! Wherever, from the
from the first glimmer-
ing intelligence in the child, there
is expression of law, let there be
taught respect for it and obedience
to it. It is the royal road to vir-
tue; to good citizenship it is the
only road.

HOME TALENT PLAY WAS GOOD
tuncIe Josh" Given by LacIede Concert Band,
Delighted Large Audience Friday Night

One Of the best hdne talent en-
tertainments ever given in Laclede
was Uncle JOSH" put on by the
Laclede Concert Band at the opera
house Friday night, and was en-
joyed by a capacity house, as the
receipts, $97, show.
\ In the afternoon the entire band,
seventeen pieces, appeared in
"rube" costume in front OF the
postoffice and played several Sc
lections, making remarkably good
music for the time they have been
practicing. In the evening they
again played few selections be-
fore the performance. The opera
house was too small to accommo-
date all who wished to attend and
many were turned away.
The musical program by Herbert
j. Benjamin, violinist, and Kath-
ryn O. Brown, piano accompanist,
included, besides popular marches,
such numbers as the selections
Miserere" and Il Have Sighed
to Rest Me" from Verdi's II
Trovatore, Apple Blossoms"
by Roberts, Loves Dreamland"
by Roeder, ETC., and was greatly
enjoyed and appreciated by
The play, as the title impTies, is
an old-fashioned ''rube" comedy of
the kind sthat gives you a laugh
every minute, with a few extra ones
thrown in. Uncle Josh" is a
quaint old character and the role
was we'll played by HI. G. Carothers.
The feminine parts, were played by
Misses Daisie Rankin, Roxana
Rankin and Louise Haight, and
all we're exceptionally good. The
other parts, played by members OF
the band-Victor Lomax as a
French count, Roy Parker as the
hero, A. j. Baum as the dude who
became drunk on peanuts, Frank
Weaver as the bunco steerer, Il.
M. Welsh as the dive-keeper,
Irwin Will as the detective and n.
A. Ormsby as gentleman of color
were all we'll played and added
much to the pleasure of the enter
tainment.
The boys cleared about $40 from
the play, which will be used IN
purchasing new music. Their
music was surprise to those who
had not heard them play before and
the concerts they are planning toI
give in the park next summer will
give much pleasure to the people of
Laclede and any others who may
he present to hear them.
The band is planning to give
another entertainment of some
kind before long to raise moneysto
fix up the band stand in the park,
which is sadly in need Of repairs.
Uncle Josh" was so good that
there will he no difficulty in get
ting a crowd for their next play or
whatever they may decide to have.
