The Private cu.tomer

The farmer who is not too,far from
a village of considerable size can often
find private customers for his products
who are consumers rather than mid
dlemen, and when good paying Gus
toners can be secured it Is often best
to cater to their tastes.

Bronze Grass.

Bronze grass is one Of the best pas
ture plants. Its good points are that it
has a good root system; therefore
stands tramping well, starts early and
grows late, is leafy and makes a fine
pasture. It does well on poor as we'll
as on good soil; but responds splen-
didly to good soil and manuring.

ONCE BANKER, FULLER
IS NOW DAY LABORER
When Bank Failed He Was
Glad to Get Strenuous Job.

Winslow, Ill-From a well dressed
banker to a day laborer in overalls is
the transition of j. Bradley Fuller,
who, with his sisters owned and op-
Grated the private bank of Fuller &
Son at Winslow. Necessity forced the
former banker to obtain means of sup
port.
The only occupation available was
that of helping manufacture concrete
blocks. He is paid 81 a day for ten
hours and is locked for every hour in
which he is not occupied.
Upon the recent return of Fuller
from the east, his departure taking
place just one week prior TO the fail
ure of the bank, he was on the verge
of nervous prostration. The sympathy
of his friends assisted in restoring his
nerves to their normal condition, and
he announced his willingness to take
any kind of work which afforded him
self and his family living.
After seeking in vain for some &C.
cupation more remunerative and with
less physical labor involved, he went
to work with the concrete firm and
expects to remain there until some
thing more inviting develops. His
family take their reduced circum-
stances philosophically, all seeking en-
ployment in order to contribute to the
common fund.
The report of the auditing board, of
which d. F. Graham, president Of the
First National bank of Freeport Is
chairman, shows that the liabilities of
the Winslow bank are $16S,647, while
the assets are $120,935. On this basis
depositors will receive about 10 cents
on the dollar. The auditor assumed
that the assets credited to a furniture
manufacturing company of Manitowoc,
Wis. amounting to $4,000, would not
depreciate

Adventist, Eighty-two, Began at Age
of Twenty to Spread the Gospel.
China, Melt was thirty years ago
that Elder John Roberts Hall began
preaching. Though totally blind for
twenty-five years, he is still expound-
ing the gospel from the pulpit of Ad-
vent churches.
He has preached in more than hun
dred towns in Maine. He has gone
into the remote coast villages and to
many of the islands.
Though eighty-two years Of age, ev-
cry tooth in his head Is sound, and he
has complete upper and lower sets.
He was scarcely twenty years old
when he conducted his first service.
He began to preach regularly at TWEEN
ty-two.
Mr.. Hall never writes a sermon. He
never makes notes of what he intends
to say.
81 depend upon the spirit of God to
quicken my understanding" he says.
Mr.. Hall was stricken blind twenty
two years ago while chopping wood.
He is able to walk about unaided in
the town where he lives, but in other
places he finds it necessary to have a
companion. He still does farm work
when at home. He likes the exercise
and feels that it has contributed to his
excellent health.

the Using dynasty. have been denied.
The imperial concubine of the late EN-
peror Kwangsu objected. Only four
years ago Yuan was serving the Using
dynasty as a minister. The boy en-
peror was then master of the man now
president. If he were to marry Yuan's
daughter he would have to pay homage
to his father-in-law, which would re-
verse their relative positions quite out
of harmony with Chinese customs and
traditions. 1t is reported the little en-
peror will marry a Manchu princess In
accordance with the traditions Of his
dynasty.
Because of the general belief among
the lower classes that the deposed boy
emperor Is truly the son of heaven
many difficulties must be overcome In
placing another emperor on the throne
without giving great offense to belieV-
ers In the old Chinese traditions.
The new emperor must get the boy
emperor to turn over the title OF EN-
peror of the great pure" and the tradi-
tional imperial seal, which has been In
the possession of Chinese emperors for
thousands of years. To accomplish
this it is reported that after the results
of the election have been announced In
favor of the monarchy the president
will resign and offer the throne to the
how emperor. He in turn will decline
the honor, his advisers urging that he
is too young for such great response
bility. Then the demand that Yuan
accept the emperorship will be in or
der. and he will ''unwillingly" ascend
the throne with the consent of the de-
posed dynasty.
To overcome Yuan's unwillingness
various newspapers and bodies through
ont China are preparing memorials en-
treating him to accept the crown.
Former Emperor Pu vi will present
a petition from the imperial family

-FOUR MADE ILL BY
HER UNCANNY POWER
"WitCh's" Husband Joins
Three Bedridden Sons.

Gloversville, N. John Bennett,
aged, gaunt, helpless, husband of the
mysterious woman who was known as
the witch of the Adirondacks," lies
i'll of rheumatism in his isolated home
at Hope, in wooded and mountainous
Hamilton county. There, too, are his
three sons, George, thirty-six years,
who has been in bed twelve years;
Ward, thirty who has not risen
from his pillow for fourteen years, and
Wank, thirty. who has been bedridden
for ten years.
The mother of this unfortunate trio,
Mrs. Sarah Bennett, sixty years old, is
in the State Asylum For the Insane at
Utica. She was committed by Judge
Wank Talbot of this place in May,
1914. While she dwelt in her lonely
abode at Hope-so i'll named for her
and her family-she exercised an I'M
canny influence over her three sons.
Whether it was mesmerism or hyp-
whatever was her power over
them-they shrank and shivered before
glance from her gloomy, deep set
eyes. She declared they were Ill, that
they must remain in bed, and there
they stayed, year in and year out, their
wills completely subservient to hers.
Their minds became weakened, their
bodies atrophied from lack of exercise.
They are really i'll today, although the
farmers whose homes are scattered
Whereabouts remember them as strap
ping youths. Frank, the youngest, is
in the worst condition, paralyzed from
the waist down. His brothers have
had their beds moved nearer his that
they may help him little. While their
mother lived with them she kept them
secluded, yet she gave them care; the
Humane society could not aid them;
the authorities could not touch them.
Their father earned a scanty living
from the unwilling soil, but 1t sufticed.
Old man Bennett was himself sus-
ceptible to his-wife's strange influence,
but when she sought to exercise her
power on him he fed and hid In the
woods. Dr. E. F. Hagadorn is attend
ing Bennett, who is seventy-one years
old. The doctor says Benefits condi-
ton is not serious, but any change
must be for the worse.

BELONGED to Prehistoric Animal.

Danville, Ind.-A gigantic tooth, be-

pit at Hoopeston. Archie Dukes no.
ticed the tooth in the gravel that had
just been brought to the surface. 1t is
of oval shape at the top, is about six
inches in length and is two and one
half inches wide at one place. 1t
weighs four and one-quarter pounds.
The ivory on the grinding surface of
the tooth is in the form Of edges or
strips, arranged transversely, and in
circular designs, with the dentine worn
down between the cutting edges, which
are about one-quarter of an inch apart.
The cutting edges are black and still
retain a brilliant polish. Judging from
the size of the tooth, the jawbone of
the animal must have been two or
three feet in length.
