Some Qnink Work.

1t was all so sudden. Between Dec.
3 and July 10 Corydon F.. Battershell
was ordained to the ministry, met Miss
Gladys Bond, wooed her, became en-
gagged to her four days after her gradu-
alton from the Hyde Park high school
of Chicago, accepted a position as min
lister of the Marinette (Vis.) Baptist
church, Joined the militia, was called
to the front, was married three months
ahead of time at his %fiancee's SUCCESS
ton, went on his honeymoon to Camp
Douglas and left for San Antonio,
where he Is now located with Company

lied militia. Mrs. Battershell is the
daughter Of A. J. Bond of 1912 East
S1xty-fifth street. The Bonds are mem
bers of the Rev. NJ. P. Boynton's church
and were present at the ordination of
the Rev. Mr.. Battershell. Within two
months the engagement was announced.
The language of camp life is rapidly
settling down to a caliber which the
mules and horses can understand.
Oaths long buried since the Civil war
are being unearthed and distributed.
There is something about the life that
makes profanity necessary. 1t is pure
ly impersonal, but what else can n
do when a man walks owe you and
your equipment with army boots caked
with clay six inches thick? He doesn't
mean to; there is no use seeking an
apology. You will do it to some one
else in five minutes.
Speaking Of celebrities, Kid Mccoy
is back from his chase after that
runaway horse. The Kid rounded up
the animal with a lasso. Nobody ever
suspected him Of being such an expert
with the lariat, but the Kid explained
that he took a course at night school.
The Kid is now orderly to Colonel
Bates of the Seventy-first New York,
and he is a real orderly person.

you for the good you do me by print
ing such paper as The Jeffersonian.
I could not find out the truth
about what was going on if it wasn't
for your paper. / love the jeff |
know it has more good common
sense and reason than any paper l
ever saw. I hope you will live long
time to keep us posted on the affairs
of this world. You explain to me
more about the Mexican and Euro
pean war than all other papers.
Now pardon me, but I want to corr
retc you just a little about q piece
you had in this weeks paper. You
told of the Grecian woman that
threw the thing from the house top
and killed the king; and you said
she was the only woman we ever
heard of that hit in a mile of the
mark.
Well, we know that women do miss
the mark very bad, but I tell YOU if
you will read the 9th chapter and
5Srd verse of Judges, you will see
that there was one more woman that
could throw as accurate as the one
you mentioned. Well excuse me, but
/ thought maybe you just forgot this
one. Yours truly,
Ga. H. G. HOGG.
(Comment)
Yes; | forgot the woman who
flung the milestone at Abimelech.
The Bible doesn't mention her
name; and although the milestone
busted Abimelech's head, he had to
call upon his young armor-bearer to
finish the job, by running sword
through his body.
That Grecian woman finished her
job, at one fling; and therefore I
think she's entitled to all the credit
/ gave her. T. E. w.

THE VALUE OF TRUTH

Truthin business is just as important
as truth in everyday life; truth creates
confidence, establishes goodwill and
builds a reliability that will not be
wrecked by the storms of competition.
Through three generations people
have learned to place reliance on the
advertised words of SCOTS Emulsion,
because they are untarnished, unex-
aggerated truisms about household
remedy of real and actual worth.
The popularity of SCOTS Emulsion
is increasing as intelligence advances,
because in these days of authorizations
it continues to guarantee pure cod liver oil
incidentally perfected with glycerine and
hypophosphites to build strength, inn
prove the blood and strengthen the lungs
It is free from harmful drugs-a whole
some food-tonit trhthfully advertised.
