When man just naturally wants
trouble it is mighty easy to find an
excuse for making it. According to
Mike Hogan, Casey and O'Brien were
having an argument of their own at
Breckenridge street and Barrett ave
nue.. 1t had progressed to the extent
that each had forgotten what 1t was
about originally and they were wholly
oblivious of the gathering crowd until
an urbane and genteel person in q
frock coat put IN.
Come, come, my man." he said
gently plucking Casey by the sleeve.

Is two be nine is ut?"
And there was where the real
trouble began.--Louisville Times.

Office reports violent battle, IN the
course OF which more than 1000 pris-

The interesting point IS brought out
that among the Germans fighting with

taken as an indication that prophe-
cies Of the results OF the Russian pres

Austria is also trying to break up
the Russian offensive north Of Bur

the Austrians have attempted coun
ter-attacks, but are reported to have

Hipnopotami Can Bun.

In spite of its clumsy build. the hip
popotamus can trot fast That IS Why
he was given the name OF river-horse.
The hippo's feet are kept far apart by
the wide body and make paths with q
ridge down the middle, so as to be rec
ognizable at once. They swim well,
but go al their greatest speed when
they can gallop along the bottom in
shallow water. They can stay under
water a long time. and when they come
to the surface they send little jets OF
spray from their nostrils. The COW is

SPIRITISM SAID

A most interesting little brochure
has recently come off the press setting
forth with Bible proofs that the COM
m~unications received by and through
Spiritist Mediums is of Demon origin.
The writer traces his subject through
the Scriptures from the time when
certain of the holy angels became dis
obedient. He proves from the Scrip
lures that these fallen spirits per
senate the human dead, with whose
past history, spirits, though invisible,
are thoroughly acquainted. He shows
that they also frequently person
ate the Creator and the Redeemer.

pray, do penance, etc. This, however,
Is merely to lead them on and to bring
them more thoroughly under demoni-
acal control. Sometimes by breaking
down the natural barrie, the human
will. they possess their victim, and rule
him more or less to his ruin-frequent-
ly sending such to the mad-house.

otherwise, are given. The price of the
little book is but five cents; 1t should

room for our friends from the sur

come to town. And we might even
use it for a gathering place for our
townspeople, where we can meet our
friends and while away an occasional
pleasant hour. But especially do we
need something Of the kind for the
convenience of the visitors and their

they are with us and have an idle

GUESS WHERE THE BUSIEST
CORNER OF U. S. is LOCATED.

In the January American Maya
zine Fred C. Kelly says:
at is not generally known that n
of the busiest corners in the United
States is at the intersection of Broad
and Market streets in Newark, New
Jersey. But that point serves as an
exception to the rule that the value of
retail property depends on the num-
Der of persons passing the property.
The Newark corner, while said to be
the busiest in the country, is not the
most valuable. 1t is a transfer point
for various car lines, and the traffic
there is out of proportion to the size
of the city.
another tremendously busy place
is the northeast corner of Broadway
and FOrty-second street in New York.
It is a subway corner in the heart of
the theatre district. The traffic there
is practically ceaseless throughout all
the twenty-four hours. Three years
ago a count covering five different
days showed that an average of more
than two hundred and eighty-five
thousand persons passed that corner
daily. By now it is greatly in excess
of that figure"
