Change Ringers.

English peals are rung by man to
a bell. the bell swinging on heavy
mounting, starting at an inverted pO-
sition when it is ut rest. The bell is
attached to 4 wheel over which rope
is strung pulley-wise, each ringer hav-
ing the two ends in his hands. The
ringers-they call themselves "changc-
ringers"-stand in circle, with con-
ductor in the center. 1t takes q year
Of training, one night week, to make
q change-ringer. 1t requires strong
tower to stand the strain of the swing
ing bells. The effect of the swinging
is to give more beautiful tone than
that Of fixed bell.
Chnnge-ringers usually are trained
church folk. The Ancient Society Of
College Youths, founded in 1887. is
their London organization. There are
more than thousand members who
meet monthly and ring special pcals
in relays. On the kings birthday, cor
onation day, peace day and others,
there is such a demand for change
ringers that the bell fOundrics are
called upon for their professional band.
But none of the other changc-ringers
are pald.---LOndon Mail.

SURE GUILTY OF SOMETHING
Fact That It Didn't Happen to Be
Larceny Didn't Make Much DIFF. -
ference to Hank.

There is an old New England squire
whose knowledge of the statute law is
limited, but who has decided views as
to common justice. Not long ago a
certain Hank Miller was brought be-
fore him. charged with larceny. 1t ap-
had rented horse from farmer to
do some hauling and that, during the
period the animal had remained in his
possession, he had fed it from the own
er's stock of grain. although the agree
nlent was that Hank himself should
supply the feed. He was charged by
the farmer. therefore. with the theft
of two bushels Of oats and corn.
'"rhe statutes made and provided"
the old squire announced ponderously,
"say that theft is to convert to your
own use the property of another. The
horse is the servant Of the owner. not
of Hank, and Hank converted them
oats to the horses use, not his-so
acquit Hank of stealin' them Oats-he
amt guilty Of larceny"
Hank rose, thanked the squire and
was about to leave the room, when the
old man called him back.
Gas I said, Hank" he remarked,
with a CLEAN of humor in his eye, 'you
amt guilty Of larceny, but you shore
air guilty Of something, and I'm goin'
to send you to Jail for month for it."

Walnuts a Valuable Food.

Wulnuts, the scientists claim. are
not only a substantial article Of food,
hut they are an excellent substitute
for meat. Walnuts contain far less
water than either potatoes, beefsteak,
or wheat flour, while the percentage
of protein and fat is far in excess.
There is only just over ono per cent
of fat in wheat flour and 1873 in beef
steak as compared with GA per cent
in walnutS. California IS one of the
great growing grounds for walnuts at
present, ihe industry increasing its
wealth to the extent OF moro than
S15,OUO,UOO Il year. The California
walnut industry was started by
band Of British farmers SOME years
ago. who introduced the common
English walnut into that part Of the

STOP !. THAT
OBSTINATE COUGH

The obstinate cough that settles in
the throat, with a gathering of phlegm,
is Objectionable and dangerous cspec-
tally for children. You can stop the
cough and remove the cause of the
trouble with a treatment of Glessco.
For forty years Glessco has been
used in millions of American homes
for the treatment of Group and coughs.
It will relieve Group in fifteen minutes,
without vomiting. 1t stops the most
obstinate cough by carrying the Offend
ing mucous right out Of the system.
The careful mother always keeps

will tell you how many of your neigh
bors are using Glessco.
