said to have more young men on its
rolls now than ever before, and a
large per cent of these are up for
forgery and other crooked means of
getting money "easy." The young
man whose parent does not teach
him to work and earn money honest
ly is going to get it otherwise, and
no matter how clever he is, he is
certain to strike hard lines sooner or
later-put himself and the whole
family up against hell, as they will
then see it, but in reality they are
only reaping what they have sown
He is only fool who figures he can
reap otherwise.

once knew publisher, writes
Harry Bosford in the Printing Trade
News, who made il a practice to
attack members of the community
pointing out in cold print their weak
nesses and sins. For short time
he seemed to prosper, people read
his paper to see what sensational
item he might publish next in his
efforts to tear down the friendly feel
ing which usually prevails among
the residents of small town. And
his apparent success was sEort-lived,
being soon followed by round of
difficulties, damage suits and other
court cases, threatened assaults by
those he attacked and financial diff
culties.

At this season the question as to
farmers right, under the law, to
peddle fresh meat of his own raising
and butchering is often raised: The
revised law says: "Any person
who shall offer or expose for sale any
meat which has not been prepared
for human consumption in a licensed
slaughter house shall be guilty
of a misdemeanor provided, that
nothing in this act shall be construed
to prohibit any farmer from slaugh-
tering any animal raised by him and
of the meat of such animal );
provided, that said meat was pre-
pared in sanitary and wholesome
manner and under proper sanitary
conditions"

Iona Vista is the name given his
ranch near Winchester by M C.
Hall, the we'll known ex- county COM
missioner from that district. The
name was registered with the county
auditor Friday. This is a good
practice. Every farm in Lewis
county should be named approp late
ly. 1t gives the place more individ-
uality and has a natural tendency to
direct general interest toward it.
Even the proprietor himself will feel
more pride in his farm after he has
given it fitting name. Try it.

Sister and Brother Tell of Field Mar
 shaPs Characteristics.

The following pen picture of Field Marshal General von Hindenburg in his earlier days was published by one of his sisters in the Danziger zeitung and republished in recent issue of the Frankfurter Zeitung:
 Faith in God and humility are the fundamental traits of his character, and the root N0f als strength. God can bless him, God can give him such tremendous successes without his soul suffering any hurt, for he gives the honor to God alone. Flattery and empty phrases he does not know and does not like. Observing and serious is the glance of his eyes; a smile crosses his features only rarely. and deepest bass is a good jake is told! Very strict in service but approVlng the right of independence in his 7uh- ordinates and stimulating it exceeU ingly just, full of goodwill, and ready to help anyone.
 warlike business was always the center of his thoughts and feeling: Even as a ten-year-old little cadet he ran along, in his vacation days, beside the company of his father. When, asaa young subaltern officer, he used to stay with us on furlough, and took walks, he would often stop at the top of some hill and gaze around, developing a battleheld TOT us. He .meditated and observed and calculated, bending over the General Staff map of our province CWest Prussia) when we sat together around the lamp at evening. He was a thinker of battles, and, therefore his comrades at the War Academy al- ways called him, as he once told me, "the concentrated Moltke."
 "On the Sunday after the mighty victory at Tannenberg-the East Prussian Sedan'-then did our gen eral field marshal, in the midst of his brave Landsturm men, give thanks from the depth of his soul in the House of the Lord and pray to Him for further victories.

 Mystery About Death. Considerable mystery surrounds the supposed to have occurred some time during the night of Friday of last week, when he. with horse and wagon, was thrown from the top of the dam which holds the water of Williams pond in Exeter, to the level below and 40 feet. How he came to be on that out-o t-of-theway road on his way home from Willimantie and how the team came to leave the road and get on the dam is a mystery. The team | proceeded along the dam until it l reached the gate house when it could | proceed no further. It evidently stop ped there for some moments before going off the dam, as shown by foot | marks. It is thought that Brousseau l died suddenly in his wagon and that he had been dead some time before going over the dam and this is borne | out to some extent by the fact that l no blood was found on the rock where he was found. Although his face was scratched considerably, no blood was on his person, and the bones in one | finger only were broken. Just how the | accident occurred will probably never be known
