POPULAR BOY SCOUT DIES.

Carl Laughlin is dead The words
flew over our town as on the wings OF
wind. Wherever it touched, it left
sorrow and the expressions Of sympathy
for the bereaYed ones were many and
from the heart.
None but those who have sat la the
shadow of great bereavement, can
justly weigh such a sorrow as this.
Those who have gone down into the
valley of suffering and stood for weeks
by the side of loved one, as hope after
hope dropped away, know that such
anguish cannot find solace in the
tenderest Of words He who has gone
forth, could not be supported on his
solitary path by any earthly friend.
The father and mother, with a
devotion few people are capable of,
whose strength was given sweetly,
tenderly to this precious invalid, whose
devotion never faltered, could not de-
tain him by the clasp of earthly love
and this young life passed on to his
Maker The end came at five twenty
Saturday afternoon.
Carl, was thu son of Mr.. and Mrs.
j. ID. Laughlin of this village, aged
fifteen years. He was born in Marion
and was general favorite among the
younger SET being a member of the
boy scouts and interested in ali the
doings of the boys in their various
games and sports. He was taken sick
the first part of last October, and
despite the best efforts of physicians
and excellent care gradually grew
weaker each day until death relieved
him from all earthly suffering. He
made a brave and determined battle,
but who shall conquer when death
chooses sides.
He leaves his parents, two brothers,
John and Marshall and two sisters
Margaret and Ruth besides host of
relatives and friends to mourn a be-
loved son, brother and friend.
Funeral services were conducted
Tuesday at l1:30 A. NJ. from the Cath
Ollie church Rev, Loerke preaching
the funeral sermon. 1t was attended
by one of the largest gatherings ever
attending services in our village, show.

Notes From ReedSyiIle.

Herbert the sixteen year old son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Otto 0. Kruger Of
Maple Grove mad very sad accident
when trying to hurry a fire in tank
heater by using gasoline, which ex.
ploded burning him severely about the
face, arms and body.
After the explosion he ran about the
yard sometime before his father and
brother succeeded in catching him.
Tearing off the burning clothes they
rolled him in the snow. DR.. Cary was
called and after applying temporary
dressings and realizing the severity Of
the burns rushed him to the hospital
at Manitowoc. His condition while
still serious is improving.
This should he lesson for those in
the habit Of starting their fires with
gasoline or kerosene. Had it not been
for the fact that immediate help was
at hand he would have been burned
TO death.

To Renew Carbon Paper.

When carbon paper has been used
several times the preparation becomes
almost worn off on some parts, while
other parts of the paper are as good
as new. The process of renewing IL
very simple and 1t can be done by any
one without special apparatus. All that
is necessary is to hold the paper in
front of a fire or over radiator a few
seconds. The heat will cause the
preparation TO dissolve and spread
over the paper, so that when it is dry
the paper win have new coating
This can be repeated, and In some
cases will double the life of the car
bon paper.

Don't Read Trash.

Everybody wants the best of every
thing. II is n sign of n high standard
Of living. In the end the best Is always
the cheapest Nowhere Is this more
true than in what one reads, yet many
who demand the best in everything
else read trash. Everyone is indu-
onccd by what he reads, especially
young people" said Chester S. Lord
the eminent journalist in addressing
the Kansas Editorial association, and
cheap reading must of necessity breed
cheap thinking and cheap expression
Of that thought-and consequently
cheap moral conduct 1t Is In this di-
rcctlon that the sensational press and
the cheap literature OF the day have
their chief influence. Cheap literature
produces cheap mentality and conse-
quently cheap people" Newspapers
are not valuable chiefly as literature,
but for their portrayal Of life. SO
greatly do they vary IN the picture Of
life which they present, that ones
mentality may be judged by the sort
Of periodicals he reads and SUPPORTS

Oriuin of yankee"

If we are going to accept the plaus-
ible theory, as many have done already,
that the name "Gringos," which Mex
leans give to the people Of the United
States, had its origin in the fact that
soldiers from the latter country adopt
ed as their marching song, Green
Grow the Rushes," placing emphasis
on the first two words of the chorus,
during the war of the fortles between
the two nations, then 1t will not be
difficult to accept the theory that yam
kee" had its origin in the attempt OF
the Indians to pronounce the word
English In the early days of Ameri-
can settlement. The nearest the ma
tlyes could come to 1t, 1t is said, was
"Yengeese," and the transition from
this to yankees" was easy. There are
people In the United States who FRO
nounce yankees" very nearly that
way now.--Christian Science Monitor.

Trade Secrets in Paper Making.

Probably the one substance that can
