OH, CONSISTENCY, THOU ART
A JEWEL

Congressman j. w. Langley a
"dry" member from Kentucky was
recently convicted in a United States
court of trafficking in liquor. That
is, he violated the Volstead Act and
the 18th Amendment both, and &c
caught at the game. He appealed his
case. Then his party, the G. 0. P,
re-nominated him for Congress. In
the meantime the Anti-Saloon League
is not opposing his election. A real
honest to God dry in that state wrote
a letter to the League to find out why
they were not opposing this man, who
violated the dry laws of the state and
nation. The reply came back that ne
matter what Langley had done as an
individual he "has always voted dry
whenever the issue has arisen.
We arise to ask how this side
stepping policy on the part of the
Anti-Saloon League suits the honest,
sincere and loyal members-and they
are numbered by the thousands-of
this organization throughout the
country who have devoted so much
time, energy and perseverance to the
accomplishment of the object they
had in view.

Words We Haze Clipped

A few years ago a music-hall come
dian made great hit by clipping ia
miliar words, and we still hear him
initiated in colloquial conversation,
London Tit-Bits says. People say lin
poss" for impossible, "biz" for bust
ness and "pash" for passion.
But such clipped words are not des-
tined to appear in any dictionary, and
we must go back much farther in the
history of words to find that when we
say: "He led the van," we mean the
vanguard; when we speak of pair
of van horses, we mean "ceryan' {;
when we retire to the drawing room"
we ought to say the Withdrawing
room; when we talk of "hobby" we
refer to riding "hobby- horse; when
we talk of sport we mean "disport,"
of tending" we mean attending" or
a "cute" lawyer we mean acute, and
Of still" we mean a distillery.

JaUanese Houses by No
Means Things of Beauty

The clay walls which surround a
Balinese farm in Java are usually two
or three meters high. Very often they
rest upon a foundation of stones and
are covered with a heavy layer of
rusheS which are to protect them from
destructive tropical rains. A door in
the wall is closed at night with wood
en- or bamboo planks, the Detroit
News states.
The walls around farms of 'poeng-
gavas" or district mayors, are usually
built of more substantial material.
The same is true of the homes of
Balinese princes. Yet while these
latter houses may be deliberately dec
grated they resemble the more humble
dwellings in that they are exceedingly
filthy. The numerous members of the
family - parents, brothers, sisters,
nieceS, nephews, married or unmar-
ried-live in a single house.
The pigs, dogs and goats found on
every Balinese farm are kept in a
separate hut. The loan huts are usu-
ally built upon wooden elevations and
are exceedingly ugly and ungainly.
On each farm one will also find
bamboo baskets to house the fowls.

OBITUARY
Mrs. E. L. Boothby

The death of Mrs. E. L. Boothby
which occurred at the Hudson Sana-
forum Monday morning, Sept. 1,
after but a short illness, marks the
passing of one of the noblest women
it has been our privilege to know.
Coming to this locality with the
Dr. nearly a half century ago when
most of our now beautiful farming
land was still in its VIRGIN state
and where the trails of the early set
lers were many, Mrs. Boothby start
ed her life's work of charity, which
she has continued throughout the
years until her death. Never was a
person in need turned from her door,
nor assistance refused when it was
within her power to do. She was a
great worker in the local NJ. E.
church of which she was a member,
and the high esteem in which she
was held was best shown by the
large concourse of friends who were
present at the funeral services held
Tuesday afternoon from her home
in this village. In erment was made
in the local cemetery.
Alice Adams Wilcox, eldest daugh-
ter of DR.. R. J. and Lucy Wilcox was
born in Sheffield, H., July 81, 1854,
and with her parents came to River
Falls where she was married March
20, 1875, to DR.. E. L. Boothby.
Soon after their marriage the DR.. and
Mrs. Boothby moved to this village
where they have continuously re-
sided since, with the exception of two
years at Piver Falls from 1887 to
June 1889 while their children were
attending the Normal school.
Six children were born to Dr.. and
Mrs. Boothby, Carlton 1876, Jonathan
1878, Grace 1881, Blain 1884, Beth
1886 and Harold 1889, besides rear
ing Marion, adopted 1908. Of these

Poisonous FIoUer Bulbs

Daffodil bulbs, which specifically
resemble onions, have sometimes been
eaten for them by mistake and have
caused serious poisoning. 4 case was
reported not. long ago in Edinburgh,
where cook took a daffodil bulb for
an onion and used it TO flavor stew
subsequently eaten by five persons.
All were made acutely sick before the
end of the meal. All recovered in a
few hours and apparently suffered no
after effects of the dose. The poison
ing is supposed to be due to a prin-
ciple known as "narcissine," found in
the bulbs of daffodils and jonquils.
Persons keeping daffodil bulbs in the
house should take care that they are
not confused with onions.
