This Wonderful Vessel

Through Three Centuries She
marked the beginning and the end of England's
monstrous penal system.
From 1887 to 1868 over 10000 men, women,
and children were transported from Great Britain
TO Australia. In 1890 the Convict Ship Sue
cess was built of solid Burmah Teak, at Moul-
main, British East India, as armed East India
Merchantmen. Purchased by the British Gov
ernment in 1902, she was converted into float

Ship of the Feon Fleet being generally known
as The Ocean He'll" . She is the
Oldest ship in the world and the only convict
ship left aoat of that dreadful fleet of ocean hells
which sailed the Seven Seas in 1890 A. D. She
is unchanged after all these years, nothing being
omitted but her human freight and their suffer
ings from the crueltes and barbarities practiced
upon them. Aboard her are now
shown, in their original state, all the airess dun
geons and condemned cells, the whipping posts,
the manacles, the branding irons, the punishment
balls, the leadentipped cat-o-nne-tails the coffin
bath, and other fendish inventions of mans brutal
ity TO his fellowmen From keel TO
topmast she cries aloud the greatest lesson the
world has ever known in the history of human
progress.

HOW TO LIVE 100 YEARS

The decrease in the death rate dur
ing the last century has been remark
able, but, as every well informed ply
stefan agrees. is has been brought
chiefly by lessoning the number of
deaths among infants, and persons
under thirty-five years Of age. After
the latter age the danger of death is
greater than ever, in spite of all that
medicine and surgury can do.
The famous British physician, Sir
James Sawyer, believes it is by no
means a difficult matter for any hu-
man being to live to be 100 years old.
He has recently declared that any
body can attain this age, unless killed
by accident, if he or she will religious
ly observe the following eighteen
Commandments of health"
l. Eight hours sleep every night.
2. Sleep on your right side.
3. Keep your bedroom window
open.
4. Have a mat at your bedroom
door.
5. Keep your bed away from the
wall.
6. No cold bath in the morning, but
bath at the temperature Of the body
7. Exercise before breakfast.
8. Eat little meat, and be sure that
it is well cooked
o. Drink no milk. (This applies to
adults only.)
10. Eat plenty Of fat to feed the
cells which destroy disease germs.
IL. Avoid intoxicants, which de-
stroy the cells that combat disease.
~. Allow no pet animals in your
living rooms, for they carry disease
germs.
10. Live in the country if you can.
IA. Watch the three Discriminating
water, damp and drains.
l5 Have change Of occupation.
l6. Take frequent short vacations.
II. Limit your ambitions
Is. Keep your temper.-Christian
Advocate.

STEPHEN CHAPMAN
One Of the Best and Most Honored
Editors in Southeast Missouri
Expired Last Sunday.

ALBERT 0. Allen in New Madrid
Record)
Many Missourians, all over this
State. will mourn the death Of Ste
phen Chapman, which occurred at his
home in Bloomfield at 10 o'clock n. m.
last Sunday of hardening of the ar
teries, aged about SO years.
He was native Of Jefferson coun-
ty. Missouri, and at an early age
Joined the Goth Missouri Infantry, U.
5. A., and was gallant soldier from
start to finish. He went to Stoddard
county in 1867 identified himself with
the people and made that his home for
life. His splendid abilities and high
character rs citizen, soon won the
admiration of his neighbors and he
became Clerk of the County Court, a
position he filled for many years,
winning the record Of being the best
officer of that grade in Missouri. In
1889 he was appointed by State Au-
ditor Seibert to a very important po-
sition in his Office and remained there
IL years, the last four years being
Chief Clerk of the Department.
He returned home in 1905 and enter
ed bank at Bloomfield, which he left
IN year or two to take charge of
the indicator as editor. He immed-
lately took rank as one of the ablest
country editors in Missouri. About
six weeks ago he quit his labors on
the indicator and was confined to
his home till the end came last Sun
day.
He married Bloomfield girl in
lSGS-a most admirable lady-who
survives him, with son, Donald. VINO
is married with son; and two daugh-
tiers, Mrs. Jamison Of Iowa, who has
a daughter, and Mrs. Jobe Of Bloom
field, who had three children. The
eldest son. Clarence, married, had
three sons living at Oklahoma City,
Okla, and expired Il year ago. All
Of the family were in attendance dur
ing his last days and followed him to
his last resting place last Tuesday.
Mr.. Chapman was one of the best
men the writer ever knew. He was n
member and leader in the Baptist
Church, a Mason of high degree who
lived up to his profession--in every
way a model citizen. The immense
number of floral offerings. from
abroad attested the love of friends
everywhere.
He was buried with Masonic hon
ors, the procession of the brethren
was the largest ever seen in this part
Of the State.
Farewell, old friend. Your mem

HOW TO TREAT THE OLD
PEOPLE

One reason why old people some
times grow difficult and pervcrse and
hard to live with as years increase is
that they feel themselves Of little use,
and are afraid they are in the way.
They need to be entertained. The
cherry optimism Of twenty-five is
natural. When the blood bounds in
the veins. life is bouyant and you
cannot count your friends; but to be
Eny at seventy-fivc is harder. for the
lonesome years have found you out.
would give the old lady or the old
gentleman the brightest, contest room
in the house, but | would not expect
him or her to stay there. Nor would
] be on the alert every moment to
save steps for the aged father or
mother. They resent the best meant
endeavors to save them from fatigue,
and don't wish to he cared for as if
they were children. Also, these gen
tie and pleasing attentions suggest
their feebleness. II takes great
deal of tact to keep old and actively
inclined people who have no longer
strength to be active, in mood of
contentment and tranquility. But as
we all shall, if we live so long, arrive
where now they are, it is worth our
while to be good to them-good and
patient and jolly about it.-mrs. Sang
ster, in Woman's Home Companion.

WRECK NEAR LEAD STATION

Another pretty serious wreck took
place on the Cape Girardeau Northern
Railroad last Saturday. The wreck
occurred near Lead Station, where n
car left the track. and Frank Wul-
ford, the breakman, who was on top
of the car, on account Of the jar, fell
to the track below, and in the fall
sustained a broken knee cap and
bruises about his face and head. Con-
ductor O'Neal. who was in the car,
in some manner fell down on the
track and was considerably bruised
about the head and complained of hav-
ing a terrible pain in his hip and
back. DR.. Morton was called out there
and the injured men received medi-
cal attention, after which they were
transferred to the hospital at Cape
Girardeau for further care and treat
ment. Both men had u narrow escape
from death.-Ex.

CLEANER POLITICS

With the election of United States
Senators by direct vote the people
will find their servants in the upper
branch of Congress more responsive
to public veal. Rightly or wrongly,
the masses believe the interests have
controlled the selection of United
States Senators and United States
judges. There is still much to be ac-
complished before real representative
government will be obtained There
are jokers in nearly all state election
laws which must be remedied so that
the voter may have his vote recorded
as he casts il. When the masses do
elect their officers they will be re-
sponsible for the men they elect. II
they find themselves betrayed they
will invoke the recall, which is like
wise being adopted by state after
state. The rank and file of the vot-
ers are honest and want only honest
laws. But the rank and file are not
supplied with cash or with highly paid
attorneys to continually remind their
officials of their duties. Fear Of the
recall may have salutary effect up
on many officeholders, and this will
result in better laws and their strict
er enforcement. The voters have al
lowed the professional politicians to
take entire control of government,
state and national, and it has been n
hard fight for the masses to get back
what belongs to them.-Woman's
National Monthly.

PURE LEAD CUBES
FOUND IN DEBRIS
FROM ROCK BLASTS

c. c. Ivy and T. O'Dell picked up
several cubes Of pure lead ore from a
wagon rut on the eastern edge of
town. Mr.. Ivy has frequently found
bits of lead in that locality.
A lot of blasting was done lately in
widening the street at this point, and
the lead came from the debris thrown
into the road by the blasts.
1t has been long claimed that the
Daniel hill has lead in it, and at one
time Mr.. Elvins of st. Joseph Lead
