physicians finger.
Hypothetical Question Admitted.
Such condition would result, DR.. Rob
inson testified, from the treatment Mr..
Yetter alleges he received from his wife
in the twenty-three years of their married
life. Attorneys for the defense objected to
the hypothetical question by which Mr.
Yetter's attorneys sought to prove this
on the ground that it referred only to the
domestic relations and did not include
business worries and cares. The objec-
tion was overrulcd, however. Judge SEQ
horn said the defense would have an on
portunity to establish the connection be-
tween the worries of business and Mr..

TIE HARVESTING ENDED

Dear Sisters of the Corner: Have been. very busy lately with the fall work and Nave all the crops harvested. As the last load of pumpkins was carted into the barn heard sharp wf1ifring noise and looking up saw an .sairship'' flying over in the direction of Round Hifl Farm, and who should see in it but a few of the sisters who were not at the Husking Bee. Estelle was making more noise than all the others.
 Upon making inquiries, found they were ens route to spend the day with one of the sisters.
 Annette: Is your home near Round Hill farm? I think I know who you are. Thought I saw you with Joan at the Stafford Fair.
 Paula: Was very glad to find q recipe for making apple butter. Am very fond of it.
 Madam Rumor says the next gather ing will be with Crimson Rambler. Then the poof sisters who were late for Merry Farmers HusAing Bee can lead the procession and answer to the roll call in good clear voice.
 FsteiIe:4 Be sure and have your bonnet strings tied down good and tight, as it is long ride from Central to the Landing and of course you want to look fresh and sweet when you arrive at the station.

CONGRATULATIONS.

Editorrof the Social Corner and Sis ters: Never congratulate yourself on your good fortune unless you want it to change to bad
 Never congratulate yourself on the smooth way everything is going, if you do. things are sure to take a turn We do not know why 1t should be so, but we have always observed that just as soon as a man begins bragging about his nice horse. that that horses are heir to. Never brag on your horse and excite someone to buy and you refuse to sell. Look out The horse usually dies.
 If your friend tells you his wife is the best woman in the world and never that she can make the best biscuits on record. he and she will be sure to quarrel within a fortnight and when you go to take tea just observe those biscuit They win be veritable sink CTS and you will be saying to your would all meet the fate of McGinty. Speaking of a husband congratulating himself on such 8 dutifui wife I re- gently met a man who was congrat- ulating himself on finding the right woman, and that he had married the wrong woman. heard lecturer say at one time that That right woman can make fool of any man." Have you ever congratulated your self that you haven't had the tooth ache in ages? That you are having such excellent health? The first thing you know the way that grinder will cut up will be enough to make you wish all your teeth were out. and you were ''gumming it" preparatory to a set of store teeth.
 How about-not having fall during the winter? Before you know 1t, when you go out on the ice you will be | gathering yourself together.
 During, winter have you remarked
 on your good fortune of not having colds or influenza? Before you know it you are almost sneezing your head I knew a woman by the way she
 began to talk of the good husband she

 him, and they had children. tool
 heard long ago If anything in this world would make a couple spat it is children. Some time after found | out that this self same couple would
 go weeks without speaking to each other.
 Many people believe when congrat- ulating oneself to rap on wood wins immunity, for them from fate. How ever. let us continue to stay on the level and not soar too high, then, if
 we do fall, we shall not hurt ourselves. BILLIE.

A FORMULA WANTED.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis ters: l had no idea, when in a recent letter. I drew a parallel between a wish and a prayer. that the question would be productive of so many favor able comments from the Social Corner writers. and I am glad to note their references to it.
 Since we have such proneness for writing recipes and remedies it may be timely to suggest that some of us may be capable of devising 0 for mula from which we can accurately report and quote one another and also, whatever we may see in print. For instance: Two persons casually meet and interchange a few commonplace remarke concerning a third party. Sub seauently one of these takers whose propensity for repeating conversations is greater than his judgment, inad- ventcntly, or otherwise, quotes or rather IE1isquotes. some statement which the Quoter. in all probability, made himself and perhaps got. an acquiescent nod from his listener Usually these quotations gather fur ther distortions from gossips and ui- timately drift to the ears of the said third party, which oftentimes causes dissensions and arrangements In fact they have led to fatal results even to feuds and wars. While there may be some Senblance of an excuse for oral interpretations there seems to be no Justification in
 nisquottng from the printed page This transgression, however, is not of infrequent occurrence. Indeed, even the sacred pages of The Bible are marred by-thoughtless-m misquota- tions, which will refer to later.
 Who has not heard the old saying: "A man convinced against his will Is of the same opinion still
 How incompatible with reason!
 The correct quotation is: He that complies against his will
 Is of his own opinion still" Other garbled quotations are:
 A miss Is as good as mile
 Look before you leap.''
 The true renditions are:
 "A miss of an inch Is as good as a mile"
 And look before you ere you leap A faTnous passage of Scripture is proverbially misquoted thus: He that is without sin among you let him cast the first stone.'' It should be, Let him first cast stone" St. James is quoted as saying: Behold, how great fire little matter kindleth," whereas he said: Behold, how great a matter a little i fire kindleth." which is quite a differ ent construction.
 If the words in a proverb are wrongly assembled, the sentiment is which the writer intended it should have.
 A cursory listener, or reader, is liable to make many blunders in quot l ing which in turn are repeated by others. Therefore, to correct this evil attention and inspection and thereby avoid stumbling whenever we attempt OiaA AUNT AMY.

MORAL sUAsIoN versus FEAR
An Actual Experience

Put the chair right back now'' :
 No, mamma, I don't want toi"
 It was tired mother who had put the misplaced chair back so many times she finally insisted on the little two years old girl doing it, and her opposition caused a half hours seize, a struggle for obedience, during which alternated commands, slaps and refus- als to obey. The mother gained her point only by taking the child's hand and hclding it upon the chair with heA own and thus the chair was pIac- cd in the position demanded.
 She had been brought up with the fashioned idea of demanding obe- dience with corporal punishment if necessary, to enforce it. Six years of this method on wilfu1 boy and this mornings experience with the lft- tie girl awakened her to the fact there must be some better way.
 Determined never to have another abandoned the spirit of command for better methods.
 Mamma would like you to put your blocks away now, dear.
 tNo, mamma, you do it.'s
 "AI right, dear; I am sorry my good obedient little girl has come who does not want to help her tired mamma
 The mother continued her work. talking aloud, but apparently to her self:
 T shall be so glad to see my good little girl when she comes back And picks up the blocks as mamma wants her to-
 The little girl stood amazed, listen ing; then stooping, picked up all the blocks and after putting them away came running to her mother saying:
 Your good little girl has come back again. See, mamma The blocks all gone now"
 Mother looked up in surprise anc opening her arms to the little one and kissing her said: .sst
 I'm so glad my good little girl has come back; I knew she would
 It was her first trial of moral sua.
