HOW WERE THEY PUT
INTO THE BOTTLE?

There has been on exhibition in
the display window of the Record
office Cor the last week or more a
couple of ordinary glass bottles. each
of which contains q wooden cross
nearly enough to fill all of the space
on the inside of the vessel. One
of the bottles belongs to Joe Heav-
enridge and the other to Ed. Rich
ards and they are familiar with the
secret of their contents. The cross
was put into one of the BOTTLES by Mr.,
Heavenridge just for the fun of the
thing" to beguile time while conva.
lescing from a partial attack Of para
lysIs. Mr.. Richards was, probably,
actuated by a similaJ motive in filing
the other bottle. The phenomena
presented by these bottles has at
tracted much attention from passers
along Main street the last few days
and much speculation has been in
dulged IN as TO how the crosses were
gotten into them. It was manifestly
a physical impossibility TO have
forced either OF the crosses down
thru the neck Of the bottle. and IL
is equally mystifying how they could
have been put together II the pieces
composing them had been put into
the bottles separately. Many peo.
pie have examined these bottles and
have endeavored to account for the
problem they offer. but very few have
found the real solution Of the puzzle.
1t requires no genius. or great men
tai perspicacity. to see that the get
ting of a large cross into small
bottle is pretty difficult proposition
and demands for its accomplishment
the exercise OF patience and ingenuity
of high degree. to say the least

PHYSICAL TRAINING EVERY
DAY IN SCHOOLS NEXT YEAR

So many complimentary remarks
have. been beard since the May Day
Fete at State Park Friday that it will
be pleasing no doubt. to the parents
and those interested in the schools
to hear that plans have already been
formulated by the school board to
extend the physical training course so
that some time viii be devoted TO IT
every day instead Of twice a week
as has formerly been the case.
The physical training has been
proven a great success in the opinion
OF all of those who have investigat-
ed il and because they feel it well
worth the time and energy It takes the

six rooms on the ground floor and
four good sized bed rooms upstairs.
1t would make a very comfortable
home for a successful lawyer OF this

A few years ago Robert Lincoln.
the only living descendent of Presi-

the state OF Illinois. It will always
be kept open for the public.
The lady in charge, Mrs. Edwards.

wife of a grandson of one of Illinois
