Who are these dupes9 Well, 1t
seems by the list OF NAMES and adj
dresses seized at the fraud offices when
an arrest is made that they are chiefly
school ma ANS, widows, clergyman
and clerks. The number of women
all over the country swindled by min
ing-stock and patent-right schemers is
something appalling There are no
actual statistics on the subject, but
the number OF gulls and dupes runs
up into the millions. In the past five
years yearly hundred million dollars
has been sent to New York by these
persons and the money Il still coming
in at the rate of about fifty thousand
dollars day.
1t is strange that women with
their oft-credited intuitive minis"
the possession of that wonderful
''sixth sense" are so easily swindled
by glittering circulars and prospectus
es. And yet even so cunning a tinan-
cier as Hetty Green owns that In her
varied career she has been duped many
times and for large amounts-larger
than she probably ever saved by living
In thirty-tive dollar Hoboken fiat.
MIS-. Green acknowledges that she
always went In with her eyes open,
but no matter how widely open those
eyes were at the moment she signed
her check, they we're still wider open
when she saw the game Of the swim
dler for what IL really was.
If a woman who can scent wild
cat as far as Hetty Green, gets scratch
ed occasionally by that animal, what
earthly show is there for the average
wife or widow of large or small means
who is looking around for a git-edged

BOTTLE FLOATED ACROSS SEA

WHEN MISSISSIPPI WAS LOW
Steamboat Captain Who Once Wsded
Ahead to Find the Most
Likely Channel.

Steamboat men who have been con.
tending with low water in the upper
Mississippi river the past summer
should consult with the more ancient
mariners I'm the Mississippi for point.
ers on the movement of boats on low
water and then start out to restore
navigation on the stream.
Capt. William Kelly, secretary of
the Mississippi and Ohio River Pilots
society. says this is the first season
since 1856 to his personal knowledge
that steamboats, have ceased to run
during the open season.
In the summer of 1855. Mr.. Kelly
ays, he was piotirg the steamer
i.ella Whipple when the water was
four inches lower than It is now. The
boat was towing two barges down
he stream, but got stuck on the
crossing at Robinson's rocks, IA miles
below st. Paul.
Captain Kelly says he waded into
the river ahead of the boat to locate
the best place to drop anchor and pull
the boat over the bar. The water
was ten inches deep, and the best
channel was located by wading. and
Captain Kelly returned to the boat
without wetting a stitch of his cloth.
ing
The method Of pulling the boats
over shoal crossings was to carry the
anchor out in yawl ahead of the
steamer, drop It to the bottom Of the
river and pull the boat over by line
attached to the anchor and to the cap.
stan of the boat.
When all was ready the passengers
were transferred to the barges to
tighten the boat The run was then
made without difficulty till the next
crossing as reached, when the
anchor and capstan process of pull.
ing the boat over might be repeated

In a recent book the author ad-
vsnces three principal arguments In
favor Of beat flying the home dr-
Tound'nes by the use of trees. shr Os
and flowers: First, the Increased
value of the premises arising frol
such Improvement: second, the com
fort of he occurants of the home,

heat of summer; and third. the In
huence that beautiful surroundings
may exert upon the minds of chill
dren, as they unconsciously develop
in the child's mind the love OF home
and of the beautiful in nature.
Paint, Plant, Profit.
The first argument is the least i'm
portant, and yet It is a valid one. A
certain farm in Ohio teaches point
ed lesson I'm this connection. The
house surroundings were untidy and
the owner, wishing to sell, could not
dispose of the property until a man
who could see the possibilities of the
place happened along and bought
It al a low figure. He spent ewo
hundred dollars in painting the
house, painting and repairing the
front fence. thinning the trees, and
tidying up generally Within sin
weeks he sold the farm for six
teen hundred dollars more thar
he paid for it. He had not add
cd one whit to the crop-producine
over # that farm. and yet the sec.
ond purchaser gladly paid good
price for farm which had gone beg
eing only few weeks before.
The third argument, however, Is
unquestionably of the greatest import

Obituary.

Morgan Bruce Park, son of Samuel
and Elizabeth Mckee Park, was born
Dec. %, 1885, in Hampshire county,
w. Va, near Capon Bridge and de-
parted this life at his home near New
Petersburg, Ohio, Dec. 81, 1910, lack
ing but seven days of being seventy.
five years of age. He was the third Of
a family of eight children.
Reared under the condition of
limited finances he early learned the
lessons of industry, frugality, thrift
and self reliance. AS boy he assist
ed in driving over the West virginia
mountains the droves Of cattle that
were brought from the valley and
plains of Ohio and other western
states destined for the eastern mar
kets of Philadelphia. Baltimore and
New York. AS there we're no rail-
roads in these days they were driven
through I'm large droves.
AT 20 years of age realizing the
scanty opportunity for improving his
condition In his native state, he
emigrated to Ohio and found his way
to Highland county. Here he labored
on farms as a hired hand and then as
a renter until by energy, thrift and
wise management he became the
possessor of several hundred acres of
well.improved, productive land.
January 26. 1860, he was married to
Hannah George. To this union were
born three children, Mary E., Lewis
ii. and Anna. The wife and mother
departed this life Dec. 25, 1889 and
Mary f. and Lewis II. have Joined the
mother in the better land.
April /, 1897 he was married to Anna
Taylor. Two sons are the fruit of
this union, Layton B. and Leonard NJ.
These With their widowed mother
and Anna, wife of John Watts, with
her three children, Florence, Grace
and Homer, are left to mourn the loss
OF husband. father and grandfather.
Brother Park was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal church and in
the days OF his strong manhood he was
very active In the service of God.
He has filled with acceptability all
the official positions in the church.
He was a pronounced foe OF the
liquor traffic and was among the first
to Identify himself with the Prohibi-
tion party. He was outspoken in his
opinion of men and measures and could
brook no compromise with wrong.
Strong of feeling and earnest of spirit
he was friend to be priced.
There are many things In his life To
commend 1t. AS an example his pa
tient determination to provide for
himself and household, his earnest
zeal for the church, his open hostility
to drunkenness and vice.
All these combine to make strong,
earnest character worthy of our emu.
lation. His last illness was of brief
duration. Five weeks ago he was
brought down to bed of sickness and
death. He suffered much and all was
done that could be to save the life, but
death claimed him for his own and the
morning of Dec. 81, at about 8 O'Clock
the end came. He fell asleep and was
not for God took him.
Then let our sorrows cease to flow
God has recalled his own,
But let our hearts In every woe
Still say thy will be done"

of a Farmers Institute recently held
in this locality, and one OF the sub
jects thereon is the following: why
DO Our Boys and Girls Leave the
Farm?" am strongly convinced
that nothing will do more to make
the boys and girls happy and con
tented on the farm than TO make the
old home a beauty sport of which
they may be proud. Every child has
within him the latent love of the
beautiful, which may be developed in
such a way as to make It one OF the
most powerful influences for good
The cultivation OF this love of the
beautiful should be a part of the ed
ucation OF every child, and there is
no place where this part OF the
childs education can be SO effective
ly given as at home.
Many of our farm homes fall woe
fully short In attractiveness, espe-
cially in the houseyard. One can find
a good many houses which are more
or less attractive inside, but which
are set down among the most unat-
tractive surroundings. When one
considers the possibilities of the
country houseyard, he can but be
amazed that so little Is made of it
on the average farm. especially when
he contrasts this average house lot
with those evolved by a few men
WHO have risen above the mere de-
sire for gain, and have realized that
there are things in this world worth
even more than dollars and cents.
Select Hardly Plants.
But" you say, I'VE have neither
the time nor the money to spend on
these things" The truth is that q
place can be beautifully planted and
cared for without much expenditure
Of either time or money, IL done in
the right way. The secret is to Sc
lect hardy plants which call for little
attention after they are once planted
Fortunately, the hardy plants give the
best effects in country planting and
are the least expensive. There are
so many beautiful hardy plants thai
II IL not worth while to bother with
any plant which needs coddling. Some
of the most beautiful shrubs are ma
tive to Ohio and can be obtained fol
nothing from the Deishboring woods
The amount of labor required to care
for the shrubs after planting will moi
be more than a few hours for the
whole season.
Plan the Planting.
Carefully prepare your planting
plan. for nothing worth wpile is ac
complished by haphazard methods
Someone has said, "The completed
planting should represent a framed
picture. The house is the picture
the lawn Is the canvas, and the trees
and shrubbery represent the frame.
Try so 10 plant as TO hide all ugly
things In the landscape. at the same
time being careful not TO hide any
thing that Is beautiful.
