Des Moines, Dec. 15--It became
b. Cummins, before his departure for
Washington, completed arrangements
which will place him at the read of the
law firm Of Hume & Bradshaw, and
that, beginning Jan. 1, he will devote
to active practice of the law all OF his
time not given to the performance OF
his public duties as United States SEN
ator. The firm will be known &C Cum
Minis, Hume & Bradshaw and will oc-
cupy the quarters in the Croker
building now used by Hume & Brad
shaw.
During his service as governor and
up to the time in his service as sena-
tor he has found it impossible to give
any substantial time to the practice
Of his profession; but now conditions
have changed somewhat and it is prac-
ticable to devote considerable time to
such work. It is reasonably certain
that there will be no extra session of
congress during the coming year, and
If there is not Senator Cummins will
be at home from the first Of March to
the first of December. Moreover. the
legislative program Of the present adj
ministration Is substantially completed
and the next two years will be years Of
congressional inactivity, as compared
with the last six years. The arrange
ment is a working one and not merely
formal and while Senator Cummins
|fwill allow nothing to. interfere with the
perfornnancezof his public duties he ex-

law firms OF Des Moines James C.
Hume has practiced his profession here
for three years with marked success,
and has acquired large and loyal cli-
entage. At the present time he is
president of the 'Des Mofnes Bar Assoc

of the wild women" manifested in
the smashing of windows, crusades
on parliament, burning of houses,
mutilation of pictures and explos-
ions of bombs. One of the first
things King George did after Eng
land declared war, was to uncon-
ditionally pardon all the suffragette
prisoners who are in the various
jails for militant offenses. The mill
tants reciprocated Immediately by
declaring a cessation of their violent
campaign for the ballot. The suf-
fargette organizations volunteered
to take charge of the work of Sprovid-
ing for the needy women and child
rem, made dependent by the war,
and some of them volunteered to act
as nurses at the front.

Trade of Bottle sorter.

One of London's queer trades is that
of empty bottle sorting at the London
bottle exchange off Blackfrairs road.
These bottles have been salvaged from
dustbins, cellars, the holds of ships
and wherever bottles go astray
Every year at least 100000 bottles,
after many wanderings, find their way
to the bottle exchange. They are sort
ed and returned to their rightful own
ers, who pay an annual subscription
as well as few shillings a gross for
returned bottles.
Readed on the bottle, as it were, a
sorter at the exchange must be a man
of keen eye and delicate touch. All
that he has to guide him in thousands
OF cases is the embossed name on the
glass, and swiftly unerringly and with
almost uncanny deftness he picks out
bottle which has wandered from
Glasgow and puts it in the case bound
for the North.

Suicides in Cars Army.

The Razvedchik, the semi-official or
gan of the Russian army, publishes
some startling figures about the ex-
tent of the suicide mania among Rus
sian troops, quoting a report recently
presented to Moscow learned society
by well-known military surgeon, Doc
tor Prozoroff.
1t appears that in 1905 no fewer
than 144 cases of suicide occurred in
the Russian army. In the following
year the number rose to 1872 Since
then it steadily kept on growing, be-
ing 210 in 1907, 242 in 1908, 263 in
1909, 26S in 1910, 347 in 1911 and 405
in 1912. Within seven years, there
fore, the number of suicides increased
about one hundred and fifty per cent.
The figures for 1913 have not yet been
published, but, according to Doctor
Prozoroff, the first eight months of
last year showed 377 cases of suicide
and 189 cases of attempts at suicide,
and for 1914 the high mark continues.
Out of the BIT cases just mentioned ~
occurred among officers.

ORDER OF "S0NS OF REST"
Possibility That English Writer Has
Drawn Upon His Imagination in
the Following.

1t is an age of societies and unions,
all of which are supposed to exist for
the betterment of those who join; but
it comes as a shock 70 learn that the
tramping fraternity have organized a
union. We gather this from a card
which was found by the police in the
pocket of a workshy wayfarer, and
which purported to give the rules of
The Ancient and Grand Order of
the Unwashed Sons of Rest and
General Layabouts," the president
being Lord Neverwork, the secretary
Tired Tim, and the vice-president
Dusty Rhodes. The rules include:
That this society be called Tine
Ancient and Grand Order of the I'm
washed Sons of Rest and General
Layabouts." The password will be
"Anti-Sunlght."
ANY brother talking about work
PEELED to pawn his shirt (if any.
Any brother who wilfully contracts
any illness through watching other
people work will not receive any
benefits from this society, and should
he have the misfortune to get job his
hours will be lin accordance with this
societys rules): Start work at u,
one hour for dinner and knock off at
one.
All brothers have the right of sleep
ing on haystacks, doorsteps, park
seats, ETC., but they are strictly for
hidden to sleep on church spires or
telegraph wires
Anyone is eligible to join this society
who has been out of work since birth
and has not had wash since.
Any brother making use of buttons
or any other modern invention for
fastening his coat or holding up his
unmentionables in preference to
string, rope or hairpins will be COM
PEELED to wear a kilt for the term OF
his natural life.-London Tit-Bits.

NO SACRIFICE AT ALL
SORREL PETE, LIKE THE MINOR.
TAI BARKIS, WAS "WILLIN'."
Little Matter of Temper in Wife, Who
Was in Manner Thrust Upon Him,
Really Made Little
Difference.

In the door of his ranch house on a
western prairie, Pete Harker-known
as Sorrel Pete-sat idly whistling
and whiting when his old chum
Mac Towles rode up the trail and
stopped.
'Whoop!" yelled Pete. lest look
who's here! Haven't set eyes on you
since you saved my life in that old
flooded mine, back yonder."
No." agreed Mac; and speaking OF
that, I'm here right now to remind you
of the promise you made then; do you
remember it?"
Yes, sir! / lowed that any time
you wanted anything off'n me, you'd
get it, no odds what it was"
We'll, want something now" con-
fessed Mac, but I'm most afraid I'm
asking too much"
"Sho, I'll bet you amt, no such
with it."
We'll, my wife and / want you to
come over and marry our cook"
"Jinkins! Would she have me-
s'pose?"
"Oh, there won't be any trouble
about that. You're just the style she
likes, and she isn't set on staying
single"
Jest listen to that! She awful
homely lookin'?''
Not SO bad"
kin she cook?"
Fine
We'll, I'm a bachelor man. l like
womenfolks and good cookin' as well
as any other lonesome old critter does,
but where's the favor I'm doin' you?
Looks to me like it's all on the other
foot-hey?"
Pete. she's the worst tempered
pin. My wife don't dare go into the
kitchen, and l wouldn't banker to,
either. And she won't let us dis
charge her; we've tried that, but she
just simply won't have it. Our only
hopes in marrying her OF, and we
thought Of you-but / guess the sac
rifice is too much to ask"
Sacrifice nothin!" shouted Pete.
You hold on till get critter sad
died and I'll hike right home with
you and marry the gal immediate, If
she'll say the word. Things have
been pesky quiet here lately; no
fights; nor nothin'; / need a little
shakin' up. And anyhow, Sorrel Pete
never goes back on a promise. If an
old chum that saved my ornery life
at the resk of his own makes a pint
of me marryin' cranky cook, I'll do
it without battin' an eye. Come on"
1t is pleasant to be able to add
that, barring few interesting Skin
mishes, Pete and his wife, the ex-
cook, are now jogging along in a
very fair state of felicity.-Youth'G
Companion.

OBITUARY..

Many friends were surprised to learn
of the sudden death of Mrs. Homer
Kendall, a long time resident of Munger
street. Mrs. Kendall leaves a host of
friends and relatives in Middlebury.
Coming east from Fondulac, Wis, in
1864, at the age of Ia, with her parents
and brother, William Pinney OF this
town, Mrs. Kendall's first home in the
East was at the Halpin place where her
father was employed in the quarry. At
the age of 10 she was married to Will
liam DeVere, whom many of the old
residents of Middlebury will rememb err,
having one child, Mrs. Samuel Bacon of
Leicester Junction. At the age of 25
she was married to Homer Kendall,
having two children, Mrs. Frank Pres
ton and William Kimbal, both of
Munger street.
Mrs. Kendall was in apparent good
health up to the time of her death. She
was stricken with shock of paralysis
early Monday morning, March 2, and
died at p. m. without gaining con-
seriousness. Mrs. Bacon, Mrs. Preston
and her husband and son were with her
at her last hour. She died at the home
of her son, where she was attending
her daughter-in-law, who was i'll. She
was removed to her home later in the
day by Undertaken Robbins.
The funeral was held at her late
home on Wednesday afternoon, March
4, at o'clock, Rev. D. H. Corkran,
pas or of the Methodist Episcopal
church of this village officiated. There
was an unusually large attendance OF
friends and relatives, and she will be
missed by all who knew her. Mrs.
Kendall was a great lover of flowers
and was honored by many handsome
floral tributes. She was buried in the
family lot on Munger street, just north
of her home.

A PURPOSE AND BREED TO FIT.

Many persons start out in the spring
TO raise poultry for a definite purpose
and miss the mark because their stock
has not the ability to do the stunt.
Let it be remembered that American
thoroughbred poultry is built for bust
ness; that certain breeds fit certain
lines and of course are a failure out
side their sphere.
For instance, Brahmas, Cochins and
breeds.
Rocks, Dottes and Reds are in par
ticular dual purpose breeds-that is,
they furnish a good quantity of meat
and fair quantity of eggs.
Leghorns, Anconas and their type
are egg machines, the race horse lay
ers, but not much for market meat.
There are over 100 varieties in the
American standard-meat, dual pur-
pose, egg breeds and ornamental-and
the breeder must select variety that's
a specialist for his purpose or he
fails.
Cochins and Brahmas are no fowl
for winter egg plants, but Leghorns
are.
Anconas and Andalusians are poor
for broilers, but Dottes and Reds hit
the spot
Leghorns and Hamburgs are mighty
poor for roasters and capons, but
Brahmas, Rocks, Dottes, Cornish and
Dorkings are bon ton.
Those who have succeeded In the
poultry business started with def
mite purpose and bred breed to fit the
purpose and that is the only way to
get there.

CONCRETE HENHoUSE FLOORS
BEST.

More and more concrete Is be-
coming the poultry house floor. The
insanitary earth and expensive board
hoor are certainly not in 1t with con
crete when properly laid and Uttered.
Our floors are never damp and give
perfect satisfaction.
A, few who tried concrete are pessi-
mists. They tell us such floors are
damp and even that rats chew through
them. This is concrete nonsense. 1t
proves their floors were not real con-
crete.
But, what is real concrete?
Real concrete is a stonelike material
composed of A No. 1 cement, clean,
sharp sand; gravel and water, mixed
in proper proportions, and laid by cor
rect methods on properly prepared
foundation.
Let it be remembered that concrete
floor is never drier than the surface
under it, and placing tar paper be-
tween the layers of concrete to keep
down damp, separates the layers and
spoils the job.
The house foundation, whether of
stone or concrete, should go below
frost line, and the space between the
