PRESS POINTS

Bloomington Record: Hogs sold at $3.50 in
Chicago on Monday-and under Democratic
administration too. Who would have thought
it possible? We have always been of the
opinion that the political party in power has
very little to do with the price of live stock, but
our Republican friends took credit for high
prices for so many years that we Democrats
certainly have the right to do the same thing.
Chippewa Falls Independent: The state OF
Wisconsin is one of the greatest corporations in
the union. Once in every two years the people
elect manager. What for? To manage the
business of the state? No. TO go about talk
ing politics. Only once in. three weeks has the
present manager entered the business Office of
the state. Are you surprised that it takes from
Ave to six million dollars year to do business?
New Richmond Voice: Don't make prac-
tice 'guying'' others and saying sharp, stinging
things Many people thoughtlessly make
themselves thoroughly detested among their
friends and relatives because they are so eager
to say billings that sting. 1t is not that they
are really vicious but simply that they lack tact
and perception of other people rights and
wishes 1t is not to be wondered at that the
little girl in her prayer asked God to make all
the had people good and then added-'and
make all the good people, NICE

GOLDEN WEDDING PAIR
RETURN TO OLD HOME
Names Carved When Sweet
hearts Still Remain.

Peabody, Kan.7-For their golden
wedding Mr.. and Mrs. A. S. Lowther OF
this city went back to their old home in
the West Virginia hills, which they had
not visited since they were married,
fifty years ago.
They joined the trek to the Kansas
prairies before the Santa Fe railroad
ran further west than Emporia, and the
trip to Marion county was made in a
prairie schooner. Here the Lowthers
took up homestead and lived, rearing
eleven children, eight boys and three
girls, and in all that time they never
went back to their old home in Richie
county, not even to visit.
But for the fiftieth anniversary of
their marriage Mr.. and Mrs. Lowther
decided to return to their old home.
They were sweethearts when the civil
war broke out. For four years the
West Virginian wore the blue uniform
of the. federale. When peace was de-
clared lie went hakk hon4e, sbacks TO his
sweetheart, who had waited for him,
The trip to the altar followed. And
later they came west.
Writing from West Virginia to her
son Mort Of PeabodL-the other day.
Mrs. Lowther said everything had
changed back there Even the hills had
got higher than fifty years ago. But
the old log cabin in which she was
reared was still there, and so were the
old well, the old oaken bucket and the
initials Of herself and Mr. Lowthel
which had been carved fifty years ago

GOOD EXAMPLE.

Jacob M. Dickinson, who was secre-
tarv of war under President Taft, sent
this right good message to President
Wilson regarding his call upon all good
citizens to declare that America stands
first in their affections:
EVERY American except those who seek party
advantage or put other countries before Ameri-
ca will rejoice IN your challenge for a line up.
1t is time to take stock of our citizenship"
1t is very plain that Mr.. Dickinson is
not against the government. In this
fine expression of patriotism he has set
a good example for others to follow.

A LESSON FROM HISTORY.

In the trying times of 1861 there
were public speakers who declared
themselves in favor of the preservation
OF the Union, and then followed their
declaration up with adverse criticism of
President Lincoln. whose trying duty it
was to preserve the Union. But their
words rose up to plague them ever
afterwards. And now there are public
speakers who declare that they stand
for America first; and Immediately fol-
low up their declaration by severity and
uniustly criticising President Wilson
as being unjust to this side or that
side in the great world conflict. How
will these latter, day laxative states
men fare when the historian writeth up
the people?

CHlLDREN'S MEALS.


of middle and late life are sown in
childhood by the unwise feeding, over
indulgence in candy and pastries, and
underindulgence in the tissue building
foods as represented by digestible
meats, well baked breads, and vege
tables. Very frequent the whims of
the child are allowed to rule in an in
defensible manner; again, the mother
may have little knowledge of the value
of different articles of diet. But sell
dom is unadultered poverty responsible
for starvation which will leave perma-
nent scars On it's victims. For while
poverty is common enough, ignorance
is more common. Too often, meagre
funds are wasted in indulgences where
more intelligent housewife would
have purchased articles for their real
food value.
Young babies needonly breast milk and
water for the first eight or nine months.
If cows milk must be used, it should be
diluted considerably and adapted under
the advice of a competent physician to
the age and. digestion of the baby.
Thoroughly competent baby specialists
are adding the more 'digestible cereals,
thoroughly well cooked, to the diet of
normal babies at eight months In
about fifteen months soft boiled eggs
are given, while small bits of bacon,
beef, lamb and chicken are seldom
allowed until the infant is twenty one
months old. Spinach, carrots, squash,
beets made into moderately thick
purses, may be given at ten months.
Custards, tapioca, and rice pudding
permissible at twelve months) add
variety and the sweet for which child
has natural and proper craving. The
sweets. however, should be given
sparingly. And here is a suggestion 1
should like to drive home most
emphatically entirely. aside from the
possible bad effect upon his present and
AHVuAO AOoAVA, wv many OBVIOUS uOl1
increase child's happiness or enjoy
1nent of life. The, child who gets
lump of suga. once a week and doesn't
expect it any oftener, is usually better
satisfied and happier than the child who
gets to think he can have candy whom
ever he wants it and has to be denied it
every hour or so. ~ ,'1:'.:>
Intelligent feeding of small children
requires much more constant attention
to- keeping the wrong articles away
fromrchildren thanit does to supplying
the right ones. Parents should bear
the American tendency to overeating
constantly in mind and combat it by
holding back. r." -
Young children should have simple
but nutritious dinners at noon and
light suppers at night. Cereals, milk,
toast, we'll baked bread with milk, and
dish of cooked or suitable raw fruit,
will suffice and satisfy unspoiled chill
dren for a great many years. g @...
Another suggestion is to serve chill
dren separately from grownups for as
many years as possible, particularly in
homes where the evening meal is a
hearty dinner. It may seem to be a
great bother to serve two meals at
practically the same time, but it is .usu-
ally far less trouble than it is, to be
compelled to deny tha children the rich
food and pastries that compose most of
our dinners.

Promptly Dismisses Him.
Nashville, Ind.-Justice of the Peace
Duard Calvin has a novel plan of
determining whether a man is drunk
or sober. Marshal Reed arrested
Lenville Copenhaver for drunkenness
and took the man before the JUS
tice in the Calvin store. Calvin was
entertaining a bunch of 'loafers" and
for their entertainment drew a chalk
line forty feet long and told Copen-
haver to walk the line.
The crowd gathered on each side Of
Copenhaver, and he walked the line
without a misstep. At the far end Of
the line he stood on his hands and
walked back. Calvin, above the roar
Of laughter, told Copenhaver he was
dismissed.
