THE BABY BORN ON THE TRAIN.

Among the news dispatches few
days ago was a little story which
proved again that within each one of
us is a store of human sympathy that
needs only an opportunity to well up
and overflow in whole-souled acts of
helpfulness to others in distress.
On a Missouri Pacific train going
to st. Louis a baby was born. The
news of it went through the train
from end to end, almost instantly.
Five minutes before and the men and
women on that train were strangers
to each other, merely so many car
loads Of passengers, each in his or
her seat, riding as travellers do, each
absorbed in his own thoughts or book
or newspaper.
But when the word went through
that a baby had just been born all of
that coldness was changed into sym
pathy and compassion and common
desire to be helpful. physician in
the middle of his meal in the dining
car threw down his napkin and rushed .
out to help. Women and travelling
men went into their grips and in
wonderfully short time they got to-
gether enough emergency clothing for
the baby. The mother was made COM
Portable in a Pullman berch, and when
the train reached st. Louis the whole
group of passengers, all acquainted
now and drawn close together by one
touch of human nature, gathered at
the steps of the Pullman and made
sure that mother and bgbc were doing
well before they went their ways.

ITvs TIME TO GO BAREFOOT.


The barefoot boy is abroad. He
has defied the warnings of his father
and the pleadings of his mother to
postpone shocking his shoes until it
is really certain that spring is here.
His intentions are the best; he tries
sincerely to obey, but he is helpless.
a stronger force batters down his will
while at the same moment the soft
voice of the tempter whispers in his
ear, "Take 'em off. The dust is soft
in the road and the grass is warm in
the fields. Take 'em off"
Nature calls him to come back, to
get close to her, and the call of Ma
ture is imperious. The little boy has
not been born who can combat her
arguments. He tries to compromise
with civilization and sneaks away,
promising conscience that he will go
barefooted "just little while" In
that moment he is lost. Stuffing
stockings into the shoes and hiding
his shame behind woodpile or in the
barn, he sinks out into the sunshine.
The dust creeps between his toes; his
legs are swept by the breezes; he
feels like bird, and he flies. He
spreads the propaganda among his
fellows and becomes an outlaw.

A FRIEND.

Is a person who is "for you" never
under any suspicious? He never in
vestigates you. When charges are
made against you, he does not ask
for proof. He asks the accuser to
clear out. He likes you just as you
are. He doesn't want to alter you.
He likes your moods, and enjoys
your pessimism as much as your op-
timism. He likes your success,
and your failures endear you to
him the more. He wants nothing from
you, except that you be yourself. He
is the one being with whom you can
feel safe. With him you can utter
your heart, its badness and its good
ness. You don't have to be careful.
In his presence you can be indiscreet,
which means you can rest. Anybody
may stand by you when you are right,
a friend stands by you when you are
wrong.
In short, friend is one who knows
all about you, yet likes you just the
same.-Ex.

Cheese In Soup,

Cheese is almost always nice addi-
ton to a soup. Besides being agreea-
BILE to the palate, it adds nutriment to
the soup If it is not rich in itself, like
the tomato and the vegetable soup. Any
good yellow cheese can be utilized in
this way, even ordinary American
cheese. In foreign households clear
consomme and other soups are often ac-
companied by grated Parmesan cheese.

Some Forms of Rheumatism Durable

Some Forms of Rheumatism Durable
Rheumatism is a disease character
lied by pains in the joints and in the
muscles. The most common forms
are: Acute and Chronic Rheumatism,
Rheumatic Headaches, Sciatic Rheu-
matism and Lumbago. All of these
types can be helped absolutely by APP
plying some good liniment that pene-
trates. An application of Sloan's Lin
iment two or three times day to the
affected part will give instant relief.
Sloan's Liniment is good for pain, and
especially Rheumatic Pain, because it
penetrates to the seat of the trouble,
soothes the afflicted part and draws
the pain. "Sloan's Liniment is all
medicine" Get a 25c. bottle now.
Keep it handy in case of emergency.

Lame Back.

Lame back is usually due to rheu-
matism of the muscles of the back.
Hard working people are most likely
to suffer from it. Relief may be had
by massaging the back with Cham
berlain's Liniment two or three times
day. Try it. Obtainable every
where.

THE WABASH LOOTED
Systematic Stealing From Cars.
Employees and Outsiders
Among Accused.

The Wabash officials have
known for a long time that mer-
chandise in transit has been
stolen somewhere along the line,
and in spite of the closest watch
at all points, the robbers could
not be detected.
In some way the officials were
informed that an organized
band of car robbers were operat-
ing at Brunswick, and it took
but a short time to prove the
correctness of the information.
1t appears that at least three
or four of the employees at and
about the station and as many or
more outsiders were in the game,
and that all sorts of merchandise
was fish in the net of the rob-
bers. The system was simple.
A car set out there with mer-
chandise in it was sealed, but
the looters would break that seal,
help themselves and put on a
new one, then change the num-
ber of the seal registered in the
office.
The agent at Brunswick is
clear of all completely as well as
one or two under him, but one
night operator has fled, another
is being closely interviewed and
some pretty respectable citizens
names are connected with the
looting as purchasers of the
stolen goods.
One of the employees of tn
road involved, formerly worked
J at the station here. Names ar,
withheld until the case is put OF
record. Prosecuting Attorne,

Charlton Boy Killed.

In January we had an item
from a Chickasha Okla. paper in
which was a meagre account OF
the killing of James Guthridge,
son of Dewitt Guthridge who
formerly lived near Guthridge
Mill.
James Guthridge was fireman
on the Rock Island and had been
feeling unwell for several days,
remaining at home, when ne
was called togo out on a run,
there being no other available.
He was inclined to refuse, even
after he started, but went on
his engine and when a few miles
out of Chickasha, he went on
the tender, presumably to see
about the water supply. The
train was double headed and he
was on the forward locomotive.
Tho we have seen no account OF
! the investigation at Ell Reno and
therefore do not know for GER
tain just how Guthridge came tC
be thrown off the tender and un'
der the rear engine the first re-
port claimed that an air hose
parted just as he was on the ten
der and the brakes setting al
along the train, causes him to bt
pitched off. His right leg wa.
cut off near the hip and his lef
badly crushed at the knee. HI
was picked up and the freigh
run on a siding and a fast pas
senger tagged, which took hin
home. He was conscious unit
nearly home, and said he did no
know how the accident happen
ed. At the hospital every atten
tion was given him, but at 2 O.
clock the same day he died from
the loss of blood.
The funeral was largely al
tended and the floral offering
from Firemen and Engineer
bi otherhoods were many an
fine. Dewitt Guthridge die
about three years six month
ago, and there survive tn
deceased his mother, ]. F. an

JOHN BARNES PAROLED.
Two Year Sentence Stands :
Pays the Widow $500
4 In Cash.

John Barnes, convicted of kill
ing Louis Daniels and for which
a jury in the Salisbury circuit
court last year sentenced him to
two years in the penitentiary,
was before Judge Davis at Sails
bury Friday night to receive the
sentence from the court.
For good and sufficient reasons
the court paroled Barnes who
will be free so long as he does
not violate his parole.
Civil action by the widow was
averted by Barnes paying her
$500 in cash.
