JUST A LITTLE REQUEST

There are probably half the homes in
does not go regularly. The reason for
this, apparently. is that 1t is impossible
to get the other half of the people to
realize that they can get a daily news
paper, with all the local and all the
worlds news for a dollar a year. The
publishers are giving for 81 all that most
publishers ask from SO TO So for, and that
is why they feel at liberty to ask you to
speak to your neighbors about the Great
Dollar Daily. Help us make them real
ize what we are offering to them and thus
make the circulation of the Press uni
versal throughout the valley. tt

SHOT WOMAN;
IS NOW HELD
For MURDER

New York, July PA well dressed
man walked UP to policeman in the
/ hotel district early today and coolly
said.
I've just accidentally shot my wife.
Would you mind walking over and
taking a look at the situation? She
Is in our room at the hotel yonder."
The policeman, amazed at his cool
ress. went to the hotel. In an apart
11ent on the third floor he found Mrs
Florence Hoop twenty-five years old,
a pretty brunette, of Lewisburg, Pa.
She had been dead several minutes
from bullet wound. Her companion
gave the name of George r. Hark
less, a real estate dealer of Sea Cliff
He was taken to police station on
the charge as having shot and killed
Mrs. Hoop. Hardness admitted the
woman was not his wife.
She's an old boyhood friend OF
nine and she expected to return to
Lewisburg today" Harkness SAID.
She was looking at my automatic
revolver when it accidentally explod-
ed" Harkness is married, he SAID.
Information from Lewisburg indicates
Mrs. Hoop has been parted from her
husband. She has a child in Lewis
burg.
Formally arraigned this afternoon,

SAD CASE OF THIS
LITTLE MOTHER

Caldwell, Kan, July 25.-,A young
woman who gave her name as Mrs.
Windfels. and who said she lived at
Enid, Okla, is in distressing circum-
stances in this city She registered
at the Farmers Hotel Saturday
night and asked for employment.
w. l.. Logn, the proprietor of the
hotel, directed her to the home of
Ed. Hess. where she was engaged
on Sunday night by Mrs. Hess, to
do housework.
Early Monday morning she gave
birth to child. None suspected
her condition and the woman was
unattended after being taken i'll at
midnight until just before the child
was born at 5 o'clock in the morn
ing. The woman says here husband
was killed while employed on the

HEN q YEARS
OF ACE STILL
LAYS EGGS

Boston, July 25-Marshall Hatch
|of Norwell, has hen that Is twenty
one years old this summer and still
lays eggs.
II know she is twenty-one, says
Marshall, because she was one of a
setting of eggs that was set by my
mother, and she's been dead twenty
one years this summer"
Belva Lockwood, the hen, has laid
eggs regularly up to this year. Last
year she laid eleven, and when she
was at the coy age of sixteen she was
producing 250 eggs a year with the
enthusiasm and industry of young
broilers of two years.
The only trouble with her" says
Marshall, is that she's a little blind.
She seems to feel her way to her
feed but if let her out she's likely
to get lost, so | keep her locked up"
Belva Lockwood spends her win
ters under the stove in the kitchen,
where Hatch, who lives all alone in
a big, old-fashioned farm house treats
her as an equal. In summer she lives
in a private coop on the shady side or
the house. She is considered by her
{ wner to have done her life's work
and is penSioner.

Special to the Daily Leader.

Newt Buford Is at the point of
death. The shooting occurred at
s o'clock Tuesday morning near the
home of Buford near Wade. Tele-
phone reports from Bennington
Tuesday afternoon about the sase
are about as follows:
Sam Buford had peen sued in JUS
tise court and a Judgment rendered
against him and the papers were
placed in the hands of Parish to be
served. He levied on some live
stock belonging to Buford and was
enroue back to Bennington when
overtaken by the sons of Buford
and the battle resulted. Parish was
shot 10y both of the Buford boys, one
using shot gun and the other a

with shot, but the bullett which
brought death was from the Win
chester and entered just below the
left ear passing through the head
and coming out over the right ear
Newt Buford was shot once by
the officer, the shot taking effect in
the right breast and little hopes are
for his recovery. The
other Buford boy was not injured.
Officers from this city went to the
scene of the killing Tuesday after
noon anl young Buford was brought
here Tuesday night and placed in
Jail The judgment that was Sc
cured against the elder Buford was
for $25 and resulted from a horse |
belonging to qufoni ilNring a
horse belonging to one of his

PREACHER
PAYS TRIBUTE
TO EDITOR
lBy Associated press.l

tDy fAobOIiaitu IlCoosb
Mount Carmel, ILL.,, July 25.-The
Rev. John P. Calvin. pastor of the
Christian church at Fairfield, in q
series of sermons on the different
trades, occupations and callings
delivered one on "The Newspaper.
Among other things he said:
what am | doing for it? KidN-
ing because it is not blowing my tin
horn?
but how mucn Of myself am
lending to the paper by speaking a
good word for it whenever / have a
chance? Really, how much of my
personal influence can its editor de-
pend on? Much, or is it little?
'If grow big cabbage | want
him to publish it, but may hear
item after item about other peoples
cabbage and | never drop him a
line about them.
''Now, as hes,, is not almighty
enough to be in all places at the
same time why not help him by
making news for his paper? 1t is a
rather mean thing to take every
thing and give nothing back but
fault finding.
IF we never feed the COW, how
can we expect any milk. and can we
blame Bossy If she kicks the. mixer
and the bucket?
Where can the preacher find
more willing agent than tne news
paper? 1t gives him free advertis-
ing for his sermons, lectures, etc.
"And how many times its puff has
inflated the cash balance of the
church social. And the editor has
to pay for his ice cream and cake,
besides.
JcS had boils to contend with. |
but the country editor has to try to |
satisfy men and women afflicted |
with an elongated dose of twisted
conceit.
JOB prayed that his enemy might |
write book, but if could pray for
the affliction of a man who | did
not like | would pray that he might
be the editor of country news

If you are housewife you can
not reasonably hope to be healthy
or beautiful by washing dishes,
sweeping and doing housework all
day and crawling into bed dead
tired at night. You must get out
into the open air and sunlight. If
you do this every day and keep your
stomach and bowels in good order
by taking Chamberlain's Tablets
when needed, you should become
both healthy and beautiful. For sale
