ALL THE WORLD
LOVES A LOVER

LOVES A LOVER
The old saying simply means that
if aRsr of. is sifis4sfs~e eeSsed TO se IN.
terested in lovers, it proves US to be
decaying at the heart. The many
friends Of Mary McClannahan and
Billy Frank D. Case have watch
ed their cOurtship with proper inter
est, and so were not surprised when
the announcement went out that
Sunday August 18th was the date
for the wedding They We're mar
ried at the McClannahan home in
the presence a a house full Of
friends, mostly relatives, Rev. NJ.
D. Reed officiating.
1t was in every way charming
wedding with sincere congratulations
dainty refreshments, and delightful
music rendered by Miss Ruth Short.
The bridal couple had announced
their plan to takl No. II for Port |
land, but they had not announced |
that they would receive their chiva-
ri, at long range, and the rice and |
old shoes by parcel post Just in the |
midst Of gleeful conversation it was
discovered that there was no bride /
or bridegroom present; they had
slipped away somewhere and left
the guests to enjoy one another
as best they might and say good
night to one another when they
got ready. They went on the Port
land trip however where they will
visit friends some time and then
&c on to California where they will
make their homo if plans develop
Is they hope They bear away good
wishes in number and measure that
would be hard to tell.

JUST HAPPENED THAT WAY.

We have noted IT. several of our
exchanges, the account of freak hen
eggs. g, Cd matches, poor matches and
various stories about the chiken
business but our Printer, Smith,
has a story that We think worthy of
mention. Last Spring he set three
hens on 45 eggs, Matched 80 dickens,
which are now about large enough
for fryers, 2S of them are roosters,
and Q pullets, the only way we
can accent for this masculine hatch
is, the old hen must believe in pre-
paredness.

Galesburg Republican Register:
The Mississippi river is great fuel
saver That is it can be made to
save fuel. That it does so is mani
tested by the great power plant at
Keokuk. That plant produces cleo
trical current, but it is the Missfs-
sippi river that turns the, mighty
turbines that produce the current,
and it is the current that saves the
fuel Now here is transaction
where there is not a pound of coal
necessary. Electricity displaces coal.
Scores of plants. hundreds of insti-
buttons along the river get power
that without the dam and the plant
would have to use coal 10 produce
1t. An interesting story about the
effect is given in recent issue of
the Fort Madison Democrat which
city takes the juice from the Keokuk
plant 1t is estimated there that in
that one town there is being effected
a saving of four thousand one hun
dred tons of coal annually because
of the use of power from the dam.
This signifies more than one hundred
car loads of coal Quite number
of companies in that city use this
power.
But Fort Madison is only one city.

MEN WHO NEVER FORGET.

London Tit-Bits: One of the most
remarkable men of memory" is
George Harbottle. quarry miner
living near Newcastle. This 'son Of
the soil" possesses . memory which
retains an indelible impression of
every word which he hears or reads.
After once reading a dozen pages Of
any book he can repeat them with
out emitting a single word. One
morning this remarkable man pur-
chased volume of the "Faerie
Queene," and before the evening he
could recite Spencer's masterpiece
from beginning to end.
Viscount Miner, member of the
war cabinet, is the possessor OF a
wonderful memory. He once per-
formed an astonishing feat whilst
private secretary to Lord Goschen.
He was asked to supply copy of
his chiefs address to the electors OF
East Edinburgh, and, failing to find
the original, he wrote out the address
from memory with such marvellous
accuracy that on comparing 1t with
the original it was found to contain
only one trifling mistake.
Gladstone had a wonderful memory,
and could reel off" passages from
Homer, Ovid and the '1liad" at a
moments notice.
The greatest master OF memory,
however, was Lord Macaulay. From
very early age the retentiveness OF
his memory was extraordinary.
When only or 4 years of age his
mind mechanically retained the form
of what he read or heard. Once. as
a child, when making an afternoon
call with his father, he picked up
SCOTS Lay of the Last Minstrel
for the first time, and quietly read 1T
while his elders were engaged in
conversation When they returned
home, Macaulay amazed his parents
by recitfng the whole OF the poem
without mistake.
Cardinal Mezzofanti, the eminent
linguist, who is said to have mas
tered more than 100 languages. de-
clared that he never forgot what he
had once learned. How he Acquired
Welsh is related by Miss Milford. In
the course Of the evening his SER
want brought Welsh bible which
had been left for him. "Ah," said
he, this is the very thing. / want
to learn Welsh" Six weeks
later he was asked how he got on
with his Welsh. "Oh." he replied,

RARE NoyEMBER DAYS.

| Thoreau found glory in one exceptional No
vember. He recorded in his diary that this
month was worth a trip to Damascus or Ca
thay. No wide travelling could bring a reward
of greater newness and wonder
1t was a November of clear skies. OF sun
cheer, of violets and hylas. The usual mlser-
les of the eleventh month were wholly absent.
He could walk dry-shod and he could find birds
and flowers everywhere. 1t was, to him, a
new November. And it came to him, so that
he did not have TO go out to it, 1t was. there
FORE more desirable than trip to Damascus or
Cathay.,
Such a November dawned last week. Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday were days of sheer
delight Most of the red and gold leaves had
fallen, but enough remained to give feeling OF
warm friendliness. One did not have to go far
in hunt for flowers that had escaped the
earlier visit of Jack Frost. As for the birds,
there were more than few; plenty of blue
jays, house wrens, and, strange fact at this sea-
son of the year, robins. Anywhere along the
city's bluffs, from point at Rand park to the
open space at Bluff street, the rising sun was
as a sign of glory.
Such November, if true to its promise of
last week, will belle tradition. The most
abused of months may be determined to re-
deem her reputation. She even seems inclined
to offer a foretaste of spring. But November
is versatile and only rarely and with some eff
fort does she make herself altogether agree
able.

POWER COMPANY A FACTOR
IN THE SAVING OF FUEL

of operations of the plant there are
many towns that use it, and even
the city of ST. Louis takes 1T IN large
quantities. so that altogether there Is
a large saving of fuel.
1t surely is interesting to step
into one of these factories and to
see the wheels turning. and to realize
that there is not an ounce of fuel
being used, and that a very large
total of coal is being saved for other
uses.
An instance of this character
ought to turn more and more the
attention of the government to the
conserving of those parts of the
streams that are capable of being
used to produce electric power.
Every plant run by water signifies a
saving of fuel for other purposes.
Where streams are within the states
and subject to state jurisdiction,
then the state governments should
pay heed to the matter.
There is further hope that the
time is not far distant when electrf-
city can be adapted to the home for
heating it entirely. This would be a
blessing indeed.
1t is well to think of that Missis-
sippi river as performing new and
valuable function.

DOGS VALUABLE WAR AIDS.

New York World: More than one
bench show winner is now sleeping
in the tents with his master at the
gathering camps or further along
toward activities at the front on the
grounds at Mineola, Yaphank, Spar
tanburg or at Fort Wadsworth.
Terriers are the favorites for
roughing 1t under canvas, and when
the time comes for trench work they
will be worth their weight in gold as
destroyers Of predatory rats and
mice. But some of the dogs are big
ones: for instance. the Great Dane
that has guarded the tent OF Major
Thomas NJ. Sherman throughout the
STAY of the First infantry regiment,
Twenty-seventh division, national
guard. The Great Dane is fawn col
ored, weighs 118 pounds and is
named "Bouce''
Airedales are the largest Of the
terrier breeds and extensively used
in the west and south for hunting.
Paul t. Rainey had pack Of them
from this country with him in Africa
and found them very clever and
brave in hunting big game, traits
that will serve the dogs in good
stead for war purposes, although the
chief requirements are as readily
learned by half-breeds. or by dogs of
no breeding at all, which are to bring
aid to the wounded, accompany
patrols and sentries. bring and de-
liver messages between the front and
the batteries to the rear. to haul
light guns or carry burdens.
Benjamin H. Throop Of Scranton.
Pa. who is now with a Pennsylvania
regiment in Georgia as volunteer
private soldier, has presented forty
Alsatian sheep dogs to the war de-
partment, valued at as many thou
sands of dollars. They will become
part Of the police equipment at Fort
wadsworth. Since the war. in Great
Britain and in this country, the breed
is most often referred to by its orig
inal name, "Alsatian sheep dogs"

REALLY IMPORTANT.

Des Moines Tribune: In the midst
of war and its inhumanity the news
has come of the adoption OF two lit
tie girls by Mr. and Mrs. Finley Shep-
herd Of New York. Mrs Shepherd
was formerly Helen Gould. and the
adoption of these little girls makes
them heiresses to a great fortune
But that is not all These little
girls were brought to the notice of
Mrs Shepherd by Mrs. Dom Seitz,
wife of the manager of the New York
World, and the publication OF that
fact has brought to light another,
namely that Mrs. Seitz has in recent
years herself adopted sixty children
and fitted them for the good homes
into which she has afterward placed
them.
1t was lola we believe, who told
the story of little bird that built
its nest and sang blithely in the
midst of the great battles of the
Franco Prussian war. The tree was
stripped bare by the whizzing bullets,
but the little bird worked on uncon-
scious of the danger.
OF all the events OF that great bat
tie in the end the only one to be re-
membered will be the nest building
1t was the only part of the scene of
permanent human interest 1t is now
There is more real significance for
humanity in adoption of two little
orphans by Helen Gould, more real
significance in the kindly heart of
Mrs. Seitz. than in all the bloody
work Of Europe.
The only question worth consider
ing is when in the upward struggle
the humanness OF Mrs. Shepherd and
of Mrs. Seitz will be the controlling
motive Of life.
