Exponents of Spirit Mediumshir" Find Little Comfort in Appeal

Subtle though the judicial mind may be, writes L. Arthur Wilder in Case and Comment, it has no place for spirit mediumship.

Wires Near Houses.

The sight of man trimming a tree suddenly falling to the ground. killed by a shock from an electric wire against which the branches were blown, leads Philip E. Edelman to suggest in the Scientific American that not nearly enough care is taken in stringing high power wires to keep them far away from trees, barns and houses.
 Mr Edelman says that every muni- cipality should require high voltage wires to be separated from all neigh boring objects by distance of not less than eight or ten feet.

DISASTROUS WRECK ON
 KANSAS CITY SOUTHERN

Grayette, June 2S.-A disastrous wreck occurred Sunday morning on the Kansas City Southern railway about one mile south of this city, when northbound passenger train No 3 r4n into fourteen runaway freight cars; resulting in the death of two men, the serious injury of third man all of whom were riding in a box car, and demolishing and piling Up the entire fourteen cars of the freight also destroying the en- zine of the passenger train.
 The freight cars escaped from the rest of the train when a draw head pulled out on the upgrade in- to town and the air failed to hold. No. ? was following close after the freight coming up the grade. The freight cars gained a tremendous momentum and were going at about fifty miles an hour meeting the on coming passenger; when seen by the engineer of the latter train the fire man jumped off, but the engineer stayed with the engine until he had applied the reverse and almost brought the passenger to a stop, thus, almost miraculously, did the passengers on this train escape with merely shaking up. However, the freight cars, one after another piled up, telescoped and otherwise covered the passenger engine.
 Some twelve men, reported to be bound for the wheat fields of Kan sas were riding the freight, but all bur five were on the forward part of the train that broke in two Two. in the last car to be ditched, escap- ed injury, while three young men, Ferguson of Cleburn, Texas, and Cof fey and Chaffin of Fort Smith were caught in one of the cars that were demolished.

WHY CHILDREN SEEK GIFTS
Az Instinctive for Them to Ask as 1t 10, or Should Be, for the
 Adult to Give.

In the Womans Home Companion Charles E. Jefferson, pastor of Broad way tabernacle in New York city, writes a talk entitled The Joy of Re ceiving,' in the course of which he explains why little children enjoy re- ceiving more than giving. He says in part:
 In little children, the joy of receiv- ing outruns the joy of giving. Chil- dren are born beggars. They come into the world empty handed, and they stretch their hand to those who are nearest them, expecting to receive. It is instinctive for a child to ask and it is instinetive for an adult to re- spond. The ehild's mind is as empty as it's hands It's mind reaches out with questions-and what are ques- tions but hands of the mind ?-1plead ing for bits of information, scraps of knowledge, donations of light. It is a pleasure to give to child, but who would dare say that ones pleasure in giving outstrips the childs pleasure in receiving? Who is happier. do you think. at Christmas, the child or the parent?
 It is not the child's nature to lie awake wondering what it can give to others, but when he falls to thinking of what others are going to give him 1t is difficult for him to go to sleep. Look at child receiving a present, and then look at him giving one, and note which act is more natural and which brings the intenser delight Little children know how to receive" ;"

WARM WATER FOR cows.
Ice Cold Drink Has Bad Effect on All
Kinds Of Cattle.

Do not forget that the cows and
calves need water in the winter as well
as feed, says the Kansas Farmer. Do
not overlook the fact that il the water
Is much below the temperature of that
fresh from the well 1t will require the
use Of some of the feed consumed to
bring that water to proper temperature
after the animals drink 1t Is as fool
ish to expect that cow can do well at
milk production drinking cold water
through hole In the ice twice a day
as 1t Is to think that she can pro-
duce milk when eating only cornstalks.
Milk Is about SIS per cent water, and
liberal milk producers will not drink
sufficient cold water to supply their
needs. We have seen the effect Of cold
water on q milking herd and know
that this Is so.
Arrange some way by which the cow
can have water of the temperature of
the well. This can be had by pumping
at about the time the cows are ready
to drink or can be provided by using
tank heater. 1t is just as well also to
keep In mind that all other farm ami
mails will do better II they can have
water that is not too cold.

assiduously, for her ladyship when lay

her own royal face.
'sThe bees also bring in resinous sub

they varnish the inside OF the hive and
stop all cracks, making thsir home water

'sBeing perfect socialists, the bees leave
the hive so soon as they fail, and die
