CATHOLICJEAST DAYS
Several of Much Interest Are
Near at Hand.
. fhe coming feast days of the Catho
lic church are Pentecost of Whitsun
day; May 10. Trinity Sunday, SS. Peter
and Paul, Corpus Christ!, the Visita

Pentecost is a solemn feast, kept on
the fiftieth day after Easter in honor
of the coming of the Holy Ghost on the
heads of the apostles in the form of
fiery tongues. The word Pentecost
means fiftieth. The time from Easter
to Trinity Sunday is the paschal time,
which is a joyful preparation for this
feast.
Trinity Sunday is the first Sunday
after Whitsunday, and is a day on
which the church honors in an especial
manner one God in three persons. ;The
"Gloria Patri" Is a prayer in honor of
the blessed Trinity. This devotion be
gan about the end of the ninth centu
ry. The feast of SS. Peter and Paul is
kept on the 20th of June in honor of
the prince of the apostles and of the
great apostle of the Gentiles, who were
both martyred on this day at Rome.
Corpus Christi is a feast instituted
in honor of the body and blood of
Chist. The Visitation is kept on July
and is in memory of the visit of the
virgin to her cousin, St. Elizabeth.
The Assumption is kept on August
15 in memory of our lady being assum
ed or taken up into heaven, both body
and soul, after her death.
CAPERS OFJAST MONTH
April Notable for Its Freak-ishness.
The monthly meterologicai sum
mary of the weather bureau for last
month, for Indiana, shows that the av
erage temperature for the month was
lower than for any other April in th?
last thirty-seven years, as far back
as the records of the weather bureau
extend. The average temperature for
last month was 4'.l, and the nearest ap
proach to this for any April was 40, in
1O04 and 1S74. The average temper
ature for April for the last thirty-seven
years was Z2. The highest temper
ature last month was 75, on the 2Sth,
and the lowest was 2t, on the 1st. The
greatest daily range of temperature
was 31 degrees on the 24th.
The total precipitation for the month
was 2 :07 inches, which was less than
for any April since 1002. The aver
age precipitation for April for the last
thirty-seven years was 3.SG inches.

Woman's Trials.
The bitter trail Id a woman's life is to
be childless. Who can tell how hard the
struggle may have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The ab
sence of this linfe to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
to mutual affection is a common disap
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even if tney
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eyes
of such a childless couple when they rest
on the children of others. To them the
largest family does not seem too numerous.
In, many cases of barrenness or child
lessness the obstacle to child-bearing is
easily removed by the cure of weakness on
the part of the woman. Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfulness to many
a barren woman, to the great joy of the
household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to the bearing of children has
been found to be of a surgical character,
but easily removable by painless operative
treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute. Buffalo. N. Y-. over which
Dr. Pierce of the "Favorite Prescription "
fame presides. In ail cases where chil
dren are desired and are absent, an effort
should be made to find out the real cause,
since it is generally so easily removed by
proper treatment.
In ail the various weaknesses, displace
ments, prolapsus, inflammation and de
bilitating, catarrhal drains and in all
cases of nervousness and debility. Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the most
efficient remedy that can possibly be used.
It has to its credit hundreds of thousands
of cures more in fact than any other
remedy put up for sale through druggists,
especialfv for woman's use. The ingredi
ents of which the "Favorite Prescription "
i3 composed have received the most
positive endorsement from the leading
medical writers on Materia Medica of all
the several schools of practice. All the
ingredients are printed in plain English
on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, so
that any woman making use of this
famous medicine may know exactly what
she is taking. Dr. Pierce takes his pa
tients into his full confidence, which he
can afford to do as the formula after
which the "Favorite Prescription" is
made will bear the most careful exam
ination. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the
best and safest laxative for women.

Queer Ways of This Great Polar Bird
and Its Young.
"Not many birds undertake to lay
their eggs in the darkness of a polar
winter, nor do many birds appear to
think that sea ice is the most attrac
tive ground to sit on.
"When in addition to this," writes
Edmund A. Wilson in "The Voyage of
the Discovery," "we find the emperor
penguin hatching out its chicks in the
coldest month of the whole antarctic
year, when the mean temperature for
the month is 18 degrees below zero, F.,
and the minimum may fall to 68 de
grees, I think we may rightly consider
the bird to be eccentric.
"The emperor penguin stands nearly
four feet high and weighs upward of
eighty to ninety pounds. lie is an ex
ceedingly handsome bird, with a rich
black head, a bluish gray back and Although it has not been announced

ISAAC STEPHENSON, WISCONSIN MILLIONAIRE.
Most Interesting of the several candidates developed in the contest for i
successor to John C. Spooner as United. States senator from Wisconsin, it
Isaac Stephenson, the aged millionaire of Marinette. Mr. Stephenson. wb
Is in his seventy-eighth year, made his money in lumbering. He is said tc
be the richest man in the state. Eight years ago he was a formidable candi

strong supporter of the policies of La Follette. Mr, Stephenson's pet ambt

Action Creates Surprise in View
The Fact That They Have
Been Popular.
of
man Is the real intruder. Fenguins
have no fear, but an abundance of in
quisitiveness, and will walk up to a
human being and stand in a - ring
around him, with an occasional remark
from one to the other, discussing no
doubt the nature of this new and up
right neighbor.
"The method employed by the em
peror penguin for carrying the egg
and chick upon his feet is shared also
by the king penguin of the subant
arctic area, as we saw in our visit to
their rookeries in the Macquarie Is
lands. "The king penguin we saw as he sat
in mud and puddles, with his single
egg upon his feet, and now we saw
the emperor penguin doing precisely
the same thing with his single chicken
to keep it off the ice, and we are
agreed that the term pouch, which has
been used in this connection, is one
which not only does not describe the
matter, but Is anatomically wrong and
misleading. .
"The single egg. or the chick, sits
resting on the dorsum of the foot,
wedged in between the legs and the
lower abdomen, and over It falls a fold
of heavily feathered skin, which i
very loose, and can completely cover
up and hide the egg or chick from
view. When the chick is hungry or
inquisitive, It pokes out from under
the material (or paternal) lappet a
piebald downy head of black and
white, emitting Its shrill and persist
ent pipe until the mother (or the fa
ther) fills it up.
"The feeding Is managed as with
cormorants and many other birds, the
little one finding regurgitated food
when it thrusts its -head inside the
parent's mouth.
"I think the chickens hate their par
ents, and when one watches the pro
ceedings in a rookery It strikes one as
not surprising. . In the first place,
there Is about one chick to ten or
twelve adults, and each adult has an
overpowering desire to sit on some
thing. Both males and. females want
to nurse, and the result is that when
a chicken finds himself alone there Is
a -nsh on the part of a dozen unem
ployed to seize him.
"Naturally he runs away and dodges
here and there till a six stone emperor
falls on him. and then begins a regular
football scrimmage, in which each tries
o hustle the other off, and. the end is
too often disastrous to the chick.
"Sometimes he falls into a crack in
the ice and stays there to be frozen
while the parents squabble at the top.
Sometimes, rather ' than be nursed, I
hare seen him crawl In under an ice
ledge and remain there, where the old
ones cannot reach him. I think it is
not an exaggeration to say that of the
77 per cent that die no less than half
are killed h kindness."

TRACTION POWER HOUSE.
Dispatches from New Castle state
that work on the walls of the new In
dianapolis, New Castle and Toledo
traction power house at that place are
completed, while the equipment for the
road has been completed and is now
on the road. The Indianapolis divis
ion of the road will be running by
September. Just when the work on
the Richmond-New Castle division of
the road will be started has not been
announced as yet.
WILL NOT SELL LIQUOR.
According to the statements of a
local Pennsylvania official, that road
will not handle intoxicating liquors on
its trains running through Indiana,
owing to the fact that the $1,000 li
cense required by the recent legisla
ture spells "prohibition" for that road
and liquors would be too . expensive.
It is understood that liquors will not
be unloaded on the state line, but will
be carried through and not be sold as
long as the trains are in Indiana terri
tory. The law has occasioned more
than one Indiana railroad to drop the
practice permanently. These are the
smaller roads, however.
REDUCTION IS GENERAL.
As a result of the action of the re
cent state legislatures, a person can
ride on a two cent fare from Colorado
to New England states, excepting in
Illinois. Several Southern states
enacted laws reducing the fares to
2, 24 and 2VS cents per mile.

NEW FORM OF CAR RECORD.
For the purpose of facilitating the
movement of cars under the new ship
pers' law, the Indiana Railroad com
mission has adopted a form for each
page of a new car record, to be kept
by the local agents of the companies,
to compel the railroads to furnish
empty cars to the shippers. The form
provides for entries by both railroads
and shippers.
FOREMEN'S CONVENTION.
Local railroad men have received in
vitations to attend the third annual
convention of the International Rail
way General Foreman's convention,
which will be held in Chicago, May
14-16 in Chicago. Several local Penn
sylvania employes will attend.
BIG INCREASE SHOWN.
The Indiana Car Service association
now has 11,010 stations under Its
charge. Three years ago there were
but 400 stations. The association has
been in operation seventeen years and
the increase in business in the past
few years has been fully 60 per cent.
Tho Billiard Cue.
Concerning the billiard cue and the
old fashioned "billiard mace," or "bil
liard mast," as Cowper wrote the word.
It may be noted that the original
French term for the Instrument of the
game was "masse" or "billard."
"Queue," according to IJttre, was at
first the name of the tapering "tail" or
striking end of the less clumsy stick
that subsequently rose in favor and
eventually came to mean that stick it
self. "Queue," in the sense of the tail
of a wig, used sometimes to be written
"cue" In English, but we reserve the
French spelling now for this and for
the tail of people at a theater door,
giving the English to the billiard stick
and to the actor's "cue," if that also
represents "tail" the tail of the pre
ceding speech. But, as the actor's cue
used to be written "q" or "qu," it has
been thought to represent the Latin
"quando" (when). London Chronicle.
, Feeding ouaies to Death7
The helplessuess of some women of
the poorer classes in the matter of
feeding babies was brought out at the
coroner's court at Leigh, says the Dun
dee Advertiser. A child of two year3
had been killed by a meal of liver and
bacon and beefsteak, and the mother
could not realise that there was any
thing extraordinary in the diet. Med
ical men who practice in Aucoata wage
a continuous battle against this sort of
thing, and one of them at a meeting
of the Ancoats Healthy Homes society
told some experiences that would have
been amusing if they had not so grim
a significance. "I was called one day."
he said, "to see a sick baby and found
the mother feeding it with little pieces
of corned beef. 'My irood woman, 1
said. you must not feed the baby with
that sort of stuff. 'Weil, sir, she re

Man, alone of all the animals, habit

head toward the center of the earth.
Between these two extremes all the
other mammals are ranged, apes and
monkeys approaching nearest to man.

PEOPLE ASKED TO WATCH.
CONDITIONS OVER THE STATE
HAVE BEEN FOUND BAD, BUT
SOME PROGRESS HAS BEEN
MADE.
Look for the white label "Inspected

health department of food and drugs."
These labels have just been printed,
and should soon be found in local
drug stores, meat markets, refrigerat
ors, soda fountains, etc.
"We wish to ask the people of the
state to watch for the labels." said H.
E. Barnard, chemist of the state board
of health. "Of course, we have not
had time as yet to get over the state
thoroughly; in fact, we have just been
in a dozen of the smaller cities, like
Jeffersonvllle, Madison, Elwood, Shel
byville, Martinsville, New Albany, Sey
mour, Rushville, Kokomo, Tipton and
Danville. The larger cities of the
state, such as South Bend, Terre
Haute, Evansville and Ft. Wayne have
not been inspected. We will get the
inspectors to work in these cities very
soon, I believe. In the towns men
tioned, not only have inspections been
made, but information has been filed
with the several local prosecutors,
who, under the law, are compelled to
prosecute. Most of the information
that has been filed concerns food and
drug work.
"I am coming to the position thpt the
inspection work as to sanitary cjdi
tions is a very important phase of our
duties," continued Mr. Barnard. "The
conditions that our inspectors de
scribe are bad, almost uniformly bad.
We have made some progress in clean
ing up the food and drug adulteration
conditions in this state within the last
two years, and I believe that within
the next two years we can do soma
good toward improving sanitary con
ditions over the state."
