Smith, Ass’t Cashier The Wages of Sin. | | Early one Sunday morning not | long ago a woman of Shelbina arose, prepared breakfast for her two little ehildren, dressed them carefully and sent them off to Sunday School. Then she went into the kitchen and hung hereelf. The beginning of the story cccur- red a few weeks previous. The moth- er seprated from her husband, and found the way hard to raise the money to take care of the two chil- dren whom she seemed to idolize. She wanted them to be dressed well and attendSunday and week day school. Early and late she toiled at washing to earn comfort for the chil- dren. A dollar was a large amount of money, {§ meant much more to her than!t does to the ordinary woman; 4 chance came to make ten of them; {t wasn’t a good chanceand she didn’t like the looks of it. But ten dollars was an awful lot of mon- ey, and money was what she needed. She had not earned money like that before, and she thought @ long time. But the children—they were every- thing. The money would get them new stockings and skirts and rib- bone; they would look as well as any of the girls. The poor woman was tired. She had worked hard that day at the wash tub; tolled with her hands just like slaves did in the long ago, washing other peoples clothes. She decided to make that money. When she left Shelbina with her companion she didn’t suppose any- body knew. But such things cannot be hid. There was an arrest, the police court and the broad light of day. People pitied her; no one sald a word againet her; but down in her ancient heart was an accuser, This terrible accuser made no allowance for her proverty, her children’s needs and her hitherto blameless life, She fought the voice of conscience hour by hour, in the day and In the night. Fought tt alone, telling no one, Who could attempt to tell what that woman suffered before she surren- dered? Could Dickens or Hugo or Stevenson or George Elliott? Not in @ thousand years. Its narration be. longs only to those who have trod the dark avenues of hell, and they don’t come back to tell us. The little chlidren, wondering why the mother they needed so, and who loved them so dearly, should have left them, stood with clasped hands beside the grave and listened to the grave-voiced clergyman; “Judge not, and ye shall not be judged; condem not, and ye shall not be condemned; forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.”—Macon Republican, Farmers Pigs Play Leap Frog. John Harwood, a farmer, living four miles south of Springfield, has been worried for a long time about a bunch of hogs he has been feeding for the market. Afver feeding them on corn for three months he could see no sign of the porkers fattening. Harwood became alarmed lest some disease had broke out among them. He learned that none of his neighbors’ stock was showing signs’ of poor health. It was only last night that he solved the puzzle. Chancing to pass the pig lot he saw the porkers per- forming some sort of gymnastic ex- ercise. A white hog, the scrawnilest in the bunch, apparently was {n- structing the rest of the swine ina rude sortof exercise which would keep any hog from getting fat. Harwood watched the pigs for some time, not realizing at first there was & systematic effort in the evolutions. He decided to-day to separate the white pig from the others in the A Wealthy Man’s Opinion. Col. John Ellott, a banker of | Boonville, and well-known to many | Howard county citizens, was at the |state capisol several days, says the | Armstrong Herald. Col. Elliot’ is jone among the few big bankers of} Missouri who ts in favor of the Mis-| sour! legislature enacting a state) bank guarantee law. As a general | proposition nearly all of the bankers of Missouri oppose a law of thiskind In conversation with the Herald edi- tor in regard to the question ofa bank «guarantee law, Col, Elliott sald that he had been down in Okla- homa and saw how the law worked there, and that what he saw there had more than convinced him that the bank guarantee law is a good thing for the banks as well as for the people. He sald that the law in Oklahoma had brought thousands and thousands of dollars out of hid- {og and placed them in circulation, performing the mission that it was intended to perform in the commer- celal transactions of the country. Kansas has just adopted a bank guarantee law, and Mr. Elliott says that money {s now going out of Mis- sour! to be deposited in the banks of Kansas and Oklahoma, where peo- ple know that they will have the! states of Kansas and Oklahoma to | guarantee them against any loss of money deposited {n the banks of} those states, Col. Elliott says that in his judgment it won’t be but a year or 8o before the bankers of Mis- sour! are asking the state legislature of Missourl to enact a state bank guarantee law, as a matter of self- protection, instead of opposing such | a law as they are now doing. Col. | Eliott 1s a banker of ripe experlence and his opinions upon this question | are certainly worthy of considera-| lon. Col. Elliott stands high in thestate as 8 man of success and wealth. He is a coneervatlve of conservatives | and was one of the goldest gold bugs | the state had during the silveragita- tion. He speaks from personal observation and certain conviction. For a Stamp and Income Tax. | Washington, April 19.—As a solu-! | tion of the revenue problem the Dem- | ocrate in the Senate will urge amend- ments to the Payne bill imposing a} stamp tax on stock exchange trane- | fers and an income tax. They decid- ed upon the income tax ata caucus last Monday and at another caucus last Friday afternoon they decided to support the tax on stock trans: | actions, After caucus Friday {+ was announced that both amendments would receive the support of the en- tire Democratic side. A committee was appointed to pre- pare the amendment taxing stock transfers. The committee probably | will agree upon the provision of the | law under which such transactions were taxed during the Spanish war. | The hide, oil and lumber amend-| ments were also discussed by the) caucus, but no agreement was reached regarding them. | Bloodhounds His Accusers. Whiteville, N.C. April 19.—Charg | ed with the murder of Jerry Bigtord, | sald to have been his rival sultor for, the hand of Miss Squires of Bladen | county, Cleveland Russ was placed | on trial. Bigford, a young farmer and merchant, who was to have married Miss Squires March 24, was shot to death through a window in his home on the night of March 23. Bloodhounds followed a trail to the Russ home. ORRERERERER E98 489BO hope that the bunch would puton|~ some fat from the corn diet. He Got in the Parlor at Last. From the Omaha News-Bee. An old Irishman named Casey made a lot of money as a contractor and built a fine house for his chil- dren. The sons and daughters were much ashamed of the plebelan father, and Casey was always kept in the rear of the house when they had a party or @ reception. One day Casey died, and there was @ great to-do about it. The children had a fine coffin with plenty of flowers, and Casey was laid in state in the parlor. That evening an old Irishwoman, who had known Casey when he wasa laborer, came and asked to see the face of her dead friend. They con- ducted her tb the parlor. She walk- ed up to the coffin, took a long look, said: “Faith, Casey, an’ they've let ye into th’ parlor at lasht.” OUR NEW. SODA FOUNTAIN is now running full blast.

The vines are planted {n rows from elght to ten feet apart. A vineyard begins to bear about the third year and reaches maturity in about the| fifth year. If properly cared for, bears fruit indefinitely, The way {n which grapes are culti- vated, {s by cross plowing. About | the fifteenth of August people begin | picking their grapes. They are put| on wood and also paper trays, and it takes about three weeks of nice sunshine weather to dry them prop- erly, They are then ready for use, ‘and are a delicious food, and can be | prepared {n many ways, such as pies, cakes, puddings, candies, bread and different kinds of desserts, The 30th of April, 1909, is “Ratein Day,” and every body {1s expected to make ratsins a part cf their food on that day. Trust Gets Contract. Jefferson City, Mo., April—While Gov.
