Health Value of a Whistle.

Boys should be encouraged to whis-
tie. It's good thing for the lungs
and can be made something of an ac-
complishment by daily practise. To
learn to whistle musically one must
begin with the scales and then by
combination Of sharps and fats. After
a time single song may be tried with
piano accompaniment. 1t is surpris-
ing what a range Of music can be
whistled. One can turn from bass
solo to a tenor selection without ef-
forts Band music can be whistled.
Any selection for the voice can be
chirped through puckered lips. 1t Is
said that whistling boys are seldom
troubled with bronchitis or pneumonia.
Many medical men urge patients with
weak lungs to whistle as often and az
much as they possibly can without
causing positive annoyance.

She laughed, and Maitland could

he had action to cloak his embarrass-

Here the young man lost track of

set at naught by the moon luster that,
reflected from the surface of the

glamorous radiance the face that bent
above him. And he caught at his

LAURIUM WANTS
POUNDMASTER
IMMEDIATE ACTION WILL BE
TAKEN TO INSTALL BETTER
NUMBERING SYSTEM IN
VILLAGE.

Wanted a poundmaster. Again the
village of Laurium is anxious to give
employment to the right kind of a
man TO serve as a dog collector and
herder of stray cattle. Applications
will be received by the clerk of the
village at once and at the next regu-
lar meeting, the council viii be pre-
pared to take action. Several times
the village has had poundmasters, but
whether ;ho duties OF the position are
too arduous or those worthy ohiciala
have found the office a stepping stone
to something better is not known. At
ANY rate il is almost impossible to
keep a pOundmaster ON duty more
than a few months AT time. The
situation was discussed at the regular
meeting Of the council last evening
and it was decided to make one more
effort Whether salary will be pro-
vided or whether the poundmaster viii
Oe paid according to the fee system
has not been determined.
Immediate steps will DC taken to
improve the numbering system
throughout the village. Trustees Hall,
Was and Holmstrom were last even
ins' named as a committee to secure
prices on street signs and numbers
and the Improvement will he made as
soon as possible. There Is little DOUBT

"JURY DECLARES MIS-. CRAFT
INCOMPETENT TO Make WILL
Bishop, and Left Bulk Of $1OO,O0O
Estate TO Catholic Church.

Thursday morning at 10 o'clock there was a
hearing in the matter of contest of the will
of the late Marie Victolre Craft, wife OF John
Craft, of this city, the will being set aside by
a decree of the probate court upon verdict
returned by the jury, of which t. H. Halli-
well was the foreman. The verdict of the jury
was as follows: awe, the jury, find that the
paper offered for probate in this case is not the
will of testatrix, Marie Victoire Craft"
The contest was based on the ground that
Mrs. Craft was not of sound mind at the
time Of executing the paper purporting to
be her will. The evidence for the contest
ants showed that the paper purporting to be
the last will of Mrs. Craft was executed on
May 2, 1909. when Mrs. Craft was in her last
illness, and only few days before her death.
The evidence further showed that prior to
and subsequent to the time the will was exc
cuted Mrs. Craft was in very weak condi-
ton and unconscious the greater part of the
time; that the paper purporting to be her will
was written by Father Shaw, who was at that
time priest at the Cathedral in this city, now
bishop of San Antonio, Tex, and was written
at the residence of Bishop Allen by Father
Shaw. That Mrs. Craft had not consulted
her husband or her brother, Theodore H.
Guesnard relative to the disposition Of her
property, and the evidence further showed
that Mrs. Craft and her husband were always
on the most intimate terms, being, as one wit

THE republican National Committee has

the committeeman think it unwise to let the
rank and file Of their party say who shall be
their standard bearer in 1912, and instead Of
the primary the regular convention will be
held In Chicago on June IS.
The Committee undoubtedly was governed
by the condition of the party at the present
time when it decided against primary-the
committee undoubtedly thought it. would be
bad politics to hold a primary and let the OPP
position see how badly the party is divided.
With Mr.. Taft, Mr.. Roosevelt and Senator
La Toilette all pulling in opposite directions,
neither one of them would have received ma
jorlty of delegates to a convention-this would
have meant a deadlock that would have caused
trouble, with the possibilities of no nominal
ton and more than one candidate running on
the Republican ticket.
That the Republican party is literally shot
to pieces is admitted by even it's most conser-
vative members, and nothing short of the
most unexpected will make their candidate
the successful man in 1912.
With La Toilette and Cummins knitting Mr..
Taft IN the West and Northwest, and the
Roosevelt and Wall Street forces repudiating
Mr.. Tafts administration in the East the Re-
publlcans are in the position usually occupied
by the Democrats different factions are
at daggers points, and it will take the hand
Of the artist at both peace-making and politics
to unite the forces.

The evidence further showed that Father
Shaw was visitor at the home of Mrs Craft
during her last illness, and that she confded

az Socialism tends to the social equality
of all races. They are even now preaching
that to the negroes; and ia the North at least,
as an equal. The negroes of Oklahoma, few
