TAFT ADVISES ABSTINENCE.
Letter to This Effect Read in 5000
Sunday Schools.

President Taft, in a letter dated
December 20, 1910, and read in g.
600 Sunday schools in the United
States last Sunday, sounded the key
note of total abstainers' movement.
The letter is addressed to Sunday
school pupils as My Dear Young
Friends" and reads:
THE excessive use of intoxicating
liquors is the cause of great deal
of the poverty, degradation and
crime Of the world, and one who abb
stains from the use of such liquor
avoids dangerous temptation.
Abraham Lincoln showed that he be-
lieved this in writing out for his boy
friends the pledge of total abstinence
so often quoted Each person must
determine for himself the course he
will take in reference to his tastes
and appetites, but those who exercise
the self-restraint to avoid altogether
the temptation of alcoholic liquor
are on the safe and wiser side"

HEN BECOMES DIssTPATED.
Some Fowl Stories You Can Believe
If You Want to.

Lititz, Pa, dispatch to the Phil
adelphia North American says:
Whistling roosters and a hen that
smokes are some of the results of
intensive poultry raising in Lancas-
ter county. Martin Oechsle of Man
helm has two roosters that he has
trained to whistle, and the fowls
have doubled in value since they
have attained this accomplishment.
But Lititz can go her neighbor
one better with a hen that smokes.
The hen with the propensity for
putting at Havanas belongs to Diet
rich Bupp, a local fancier. A few
evenings ago a number of Bupp's
friends were chatting in the chicken
house, among them being Charles
Loercher The latter was seated on
a store box enjoying the conversa-
ton and good social smoke, when
suddenly one of the hens jumped
up and took the cigar from Loerch-
er's mouth. She then proudly strut
ted off, with the smoke putting from

HUMAN FLESH EATEN.
Papuans of New Guinea Practice
Most Revolving Customs.

Cannibalism is by no means a
mere fable of history. 1t is still
practiced by various African tribes
in all it's gruesome details. The in
terror of New Guinea is perhaps the
largest undiscovered and unexplored
area remaining on the earth's sur
face, and in this dark section of the
earth human flesh is roasted and

The natives of this territory are
known as Papuans, and are divided
into many distinct tribes. Their vii

from 300 to 600 feet long and 70
feet high. 1t is divided into tunnel
shaped compartments, and is capa-

A YOUNG GIRLS ROMANCE
Indian Chief Wins the Love of a
Chicago Belle. Met Him While
on Pleasure Trim.


CHICAGO.-The old saying that
''he that complies against his will
is of his own opinion STILL" applies
with peculiar emphasis to the case
of Madeline Sullivan of this city,
who in spite of the opposition of
her family and friends is determined
on marrying Plenty Hawk, a chief
of the Crow Indian reservation in
Montana. Several months ago Miss
Sullivan paid an extended visit to
Montana, and there fell under the
thrall of the picturesque life of the
Indians. Plenty Hawk was her tu-
tor in teaching her to shoot, hunt,
fish and ride cowboy fashion. He
frequently called upon her in the
little town near the reservation
where she made her home, and the
acquaintance speedily
Ripened Into Love.
The girls mother in this city
learned of the interesting situation
which had developed in Montana,
and three weeks ago went west and
brought her daughter home. Almost
Immediately the daughter fed back
to the copper-cOlOred lover and was
preparing to get married when the
authorities at the instigation of the
mother interfered. Plenty Hawk
was thrown into Jail and Miss Sui
livan shipped back to Chicago.
But her love for the Indian has
suffered no abatement, and she vows
she will yet become the mistress of
Plenty Hawks tepee. Il did not
know what life really is until I met
Plenty Hawk" she says. He is
a big strong man, and l like that
kind. Why shouldn't l marry him.
Can't a girl choose a husband for
herself if she is old enough to know
what is really in her heart
And marry him she very likely
will, just as other white girls mar
ried Indians before.

A Milling Company and Railroad
Have a Round in Court.

- Al SOuIls
The Missouri Pacific Railroad
sent to Larrabee & Co., millers. at
Topeka, bill for 50 for switching
cars laden with flour. The millers
said the bill was wrong and they
wouldn't pay it. The railroad de-
clared the bill was right, and that if
the millers didn't pay they could
nave no more cars switched to their
mills. The railroad, furthermore,
said that a great principle was in
VOWED in its contention, and that
1t would go to the courts. The mill
ing people said there was lust as
as great a principle on their side.
and that they were wiling to go to
court to settle it. That is how the
matter got into litigation. To cut
the story short, it ran the gamut and
the other day came to an end in the
United States supreme court. which
found for the milling company and
ordered the railroad to pay $i3.98O
damages and costs. That would
seem to be coming pretty high for a
$9 bill; but there was the principle.

paign was taken up with more vigor
than ever. The board kept one man,
Charles Simons, at Lansing. all the
time, to do missionary work In behalf

supplemented by those OF a special
committee OF the board. These mem
bers worked without compensation for
the passage OF the bill and their Ell

The real estate men had accumulat-

states where a recording fee Is in

able argument, for they showed con-

Moreover, II was pointed out that the
