Verdict in Ben Glaze Case Reversed
and Remanded.

The Supreme Court last week re-
versed the judgment in the case of
the State VS.. Ben Glaze, in which
Glaze was found guilty of embezzle-
ment from the Burlington railroad
company. This case came up in the
Clarke county court couple of years
ago. Glaze had worked for the Bur-
lington railroad company for about
10 years and in January, 1913, his
accounts were found to be short
about $4,000. He was indicted by the
grand jury and plead not guilty.
When his case came up for trial
he was found guilty and sentenced
to five years in the penitentiary. The
case was appealed and judgment re-
yersed and remanded. The decision
OF the Supreme Court has not yet
been received here, so it is not known
on what grounds the decision was
based.-Osceola Democrat.

Mother Symptoms Prophecy.

Mother Symptoms prophecy, made
before any of the important discover,
les and even before America was dis.
covered by Columbus, has come true
except that part referring to the END
of the world. 1t is as follows:
Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with
woe;
Around the world thought shall fly
In the twinkling of an eye.
Waters shall yet more wonders do,
Now strange, yet shall be true.
Through hills men shall ride,
And no horse nor ass be at his side
Under water men shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk;
In the air, men shall be seen
In white, in black, in green.
Iron in the water shall float
AS easy as a wooden boat.
God shall be found mid stone,
In land that's now unknown.
Fire and water shall wonders do.
England shall at last admit a Jew.
And this world to an end shall come
In eighteen hundred and eighty-one.

Was Looking Up Grandfather's
Grave.

Two gentlemen were in our town
the latter part of last week, Hyrum
Bennion, from Utah, and S. o. Ben
Mon, of independence, Mo. The form
er was a gentleman about " years
of age, who in conversation told us
they were here looking up his grand
fathers grave, he being buried in
the old Mormon cemetery west of
town. He also told US that he was
born in Garden Grove when the Nor
mons stopped here after being driven
out of Nauvoo, ILL.,, in the late 4O's.
Owing to the fact that the old Gene
terry has been cleared off some time
ago, and the trees cut, it was impos-
sible to locate the grave with any
certainty. They wished to buy plot
of ground and erect monument.
They were we'll posted on the early
history of Garden Grove and it was
interesting to talk to them.-Garden

amount in excess Of three million
dollars.

SMART SILK GLOVES.

TO appear well dressed woman ! must wear gloves with her street outfits. In the cold months the gloves are worn for comfort, as much as for style, but in the summer they are worn merely for the latter reason. Since they are warm, it is necessary to find a fabric which will be as comfortable as possible and yet look stylish. For this reason the snnartest dressed wom- en are wearing silk gloves. It is quite noticeable that the silk gloves of this season arc quite different from those of other years in that they are made on better lines and have more char iacter.
 ! Here Is an example of one style which is undeniably smart: The gloves proper are of white silk. The insets are of black silk. The black stitching on the backs of the gloves does much to give them distinction.
 While the glove that buttons or clasps about the wrist is in favor. the gauntlet glove is more in demand.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-07-27

clothing can be protected sufnciently by being rolled or laid away in sealed newspapers or In mothproof paper bags. The bags arc best for garments that need to bs hung in shape, as over- coats, but newspapers form a perfect protecting agent a far as moths are concerned. provided there are no moths CT eggs in the article, put into the pa- per and provided the edges are well sealed with mucilage or paste.
 Rugs can bs rolled in heavy paper which can be sealed at the ends and at the outside edge.
 No housekeeper enjoys coming home to find her silver black from tarnish. To insure against this have the dat silver wrapped in tissue paper rather than in wool and the large pieces poll ished and then coated with lard. When the house is opened up 1t is only nec- essary to wash on the lard.
 The copper boiler in the kitchen can be kept bright and shining provided 1t is given . rubbing with sweet oil after being polished with salt and lemon or some other polishing agent.

 The fascinating chemise and pants developed in flesh colored chiffon ac- cordion plaited and finished in points are a dainty example of how simple and delightful the new lingerie can be. The combination suit illustrated is of flesh toned crepe de chine, with val edge and insertion used lavishly as trimming. The lines are as comfortable as graceful.
