Due to Start Until Mother caresses
Her Youngest.

She was running across lots to catch
the 1852 train for New York. II was
precisely 1:52h, and the train already
was painting into the station. At her
heels was youngster making as good
time as he could, and he was crying.
BY the time she reached the station
steps she was a good hundred yards
ahead of the little boy, but he kept at,
crying louder and louder. The conduc-
tor was holding the train for her.
Madam" said the conductor as she
climbed up the car steps, who is that
little boy?"
MY youngest" she said, perfectly
breathless.
What's he crying for7"
II didn't have time to kiss him
goodby."
We'll, you get right of this train
and kiss. We can wait better than he
can"
The conductor stood with his hand
on the signal cord while the operation
was performed, and then the train
went of, leaving the youngster happy
and smiling.

the discoverer of the south pole, that

vivid remembrance of the most de-

visions of former banquets, Christmas
dinners at home and certain favorite
dishes. Yes, II you are hungry the
thought of fine food is exquisite tor

And In this connection" the cap
tain continued, Il am reminded of a
story about the governor of a GER
tain German prison.
One morning this governor said to
the chief warden:

worse than ever. Put him on bread
and water.
But he s already doing two fast
days, sir
Then, ordered the merciless gov
ernor, give him a cookbook, and see

purpose of the Service is abstract,
in actual work the bureau will get
down to cases" 1t will teach bet
ter rural life by actual demonstra-
tions.
while no specific plans have yet
been made, it is expected that the
Service will conduct actual model
schools i'm different sections OF the
country. IL may construct model
country roads for demonstration
purposes. BY actual demonstration
II will. show how the rural school
can become the farm neighborhood
center where the country popula-
ton can 20 for entertainment in
struction and social intercourse.
Marketing associations will be
studied. and the Service may organ
ize cooperative marketing associa-
tions of farmers along model lines.
The whole purpose of the work Will
he to stimulate the movement from
the cities back to the farm and to
check the opposite movement.
Success in this work would be to
increase farm production and thus
bring down the cost of living
I'VE are not predicting that this
work will result in a reduced cost
of living said Secretary Houston.
1.-THE cost of living is the result OF
such diverse and intricate causes
that i'll is impossible to predict the
result of changing any one OF them.
We only hope to do some good. we
might be getting real results and
then other circumstances might on
set all we could do. The price OF
gold might continue to decrease,
for instance. We see certain needed
reforms and we are going to try to
make them"

George F. Leavitt, a Worcester,
Mass, travelling shoe salesman and
former resident of St. Johnsbury,
furnishes one of the most thrilling
sideights on the middle western
floods that has yet come to light.
With 80 other passengers MI
Leavitt was marooned on a passenger
coach near Loveland, o., when the
floods were at their height. Danger
from the rising water at first became
apparent in the late afternoon and by
seven o'clock the entire passenger
list had to be taken to the tops of
the coaches. From that hour until
9 o'clock the next morning the wat
er continued to rise at the rate OF
fourteen inches an hour. At the
highwater mark, Mr.. LeaV1tt says,
the water reached the top level OF
the car and had started to Lrickle
through the VentilatOrs extending
along the ridge when the wind shift
ed and the rising tide began to re-
cede. Among the passengers there
was a sprinkling of women, who
were nearly frantic with fear. Some
were for jumping into the turbid
waters, while others were appar-
emily on the verge of hysteria. The
company was detained on the coach
for 80 hours, and during that period
most of the male passengers
we're obliged to subsist on
chewing tobacco. Help came at
last in the shape of rescue boats
from the nearby village. The
Cincinnati Enquirer printed quar-
ter-page photo OF the marooned pas
sengers.
