Wise Indiana.
Canadian authorities say that an te-
rtian klllB with the greatest judgment
and discretion. Unlike the white hun-
ter the Indian needs no game laws.
He' understands that If the game 1s to
last he must kill only enough for his
needs He will kill (or food and for thn
pell, but only when the latter is at lt
best He never kills for sport alone,
and will not destroy a female animal
at the breeding season —Fur News.
Eccentricity of Genius.
As Alexander Dumas had dined
with a state minister, Bomebody
asked him If he had enjoyed himself. I
He replied: "If It had not been for
me, I would have been bored." Dumas j
was in the habit of giving two francs
to a beggar whenever he met him.
Once he had only two cents, which he
gave "Oh, M. Dumas!" exclaimed the
beggar, reprovingly, "Give them to a ^
beggar," he replied.
A Queen's Critical Brother.
Marie Antoinette's brother Joseph
could not bear the rouge pot and one
evening when the queen was going
out, being heavily rouged, the emper-
or was looking on Pointing to a lady
present who was excessively be-
daubed with paint, Joseph remarked
facetiously: "A little more under the
eyes! lay on the rouge like fury, as
that lady does!"—Prom Hassard's

LONDON'S FEW FRAME HOUSES
Old Wooden Structures That Poteeaa

London.—Across Blackfriars bridge,
scarcely five minutes' walk from 9t.
Paul's cathedral, Is a row of very an-
cient "frame buildings." the only one
of Its kind now remaining within the
boundaries of the metropolitan district.
These old wooden structures are soon
to come down to make room for mod-
ern offices.
Prom the purely architectural or ar-
tistic point of view, these particular
woodeu buildings are nothing to boast

Hint for the Children.
Do not encourage precocity, either
mental or physical. in young children.
Do not even encourage them to walk
until they make the attempt them
selves. And even then be careful that
the child does not overtax his llttl*
strength or put a burden on his legs
that will make them informed or
crooked.—New York Telegram.
How a Woman Picks 'Em.
Maybe the reason some women ca«
love the little onery, shaggy, off-col-
ored thing with hair all In its eyes,
which charity permits you to call a
dog, better than their husbands ia
that the average wife selects the dog
she really wanta, but takes her hus-
band out of a Job lot.—New York

YEAR PROMISES TO BE A RECORD
BREAKER IN ANNALS OF POT-
TAWATOMIE COUNTY CROPS.
It is now assured that 111 a general
way the year will be one of the best
crop producers ever known by Pot-
tawatomie county farmers.
While the extreme heat, which was
accompanied by a lack of rain, did
quite a little damage to the growing
corn crop, that is found to be confined
almost exclusively to the late corn,
or to that which was growing upon
exceptionally high land. Low land
corn and early corn generally, is in
the very best of shape and will yield
largely.
Cotton is in such fine condition
that the experts predict a larger num-
ber of bales yield than last year, not-
withstanding the fact that the acre-
age in the county has been reduced
not less than 40 per cent.
Alfalfa has been yielding heavily
and is in fine condition.
The stiffening of the price paid for
potatoes has also been of great bene-
fit to the local farmers.

of. Any "New" American western
town can show similar structures.
They are "clinker" built two-story af-
fairs unpretentious as to outward ap-
pearance.
But It is their history that counts.
These buildings always have possess-
ed more or less Interest to American
visitors, as they were erected during
the first year of the American war
of independence. As specimens ot
early Ixindon building work they pos-
sess an interest in themselves After
the great London fire of 1668. a large
number of wooden buildings were
erected In various parts of London and
though these particular ones did not
come into existence until a hundred
years afterwards they were regarded
In their day as among the most impos-
ing edifices of their kind.
Historically, the buildings possess
Interest as having been the temporary
abiding place of the famous engineer,
Isambard Kingdom Brunei, who built
the first tunnel under the Thames,
and also planned the famous Clifton
suspension bridge which won him
fame in the engineering world. Brunei
also was the designer of the Great
Eastern, the largest ship ever built,
and of the first propeller ship to cross
the Atlantic. It is said that he lived
in these houses during the years of the
greatest engineering activity.
The district In which these houses
stand Is not now considered a "select"
one, but, in the early days, Beveral
prominent London city merchants re-
sided there; and in this neighborhood
also lived numerous famous actors and
actresses, Garrlck, Mrs. Slddons and
Bhertdan at one time lived on the
south side of the river and even in
the eariler days Shakespeare's thea
ter—the Globe—of which the poet held
the majority of shares—stood In the
neighborhood of Blackfrlars bridge.
