“Oh, dear,” said Porky Pig. “I am
quite mistaken. I thought you were
trying to take something from me,
and of course I would not be true to
myself and my own pig nature if I
allowed it for a minute. And-when I
come to think of it I don’t really
mind at all if you do take words 1
use. Words aren’t of any use. They
can’t be eaten. Still I do know a
beautiful word! Grunt —grunt —grunt
— I know a perfectly lovely word!”
“I suppose that word is ‘honor’,”

“And why do you suppose such a
thing?” asked Grandfather I’orky Pig.
“You began by saying that it was
such a great honor. So If honor is
great —honor must be the word,”
squealed Miss Ham.
“You’re absurd 2” said Porky Pig.
“More than that! You’re quite wrong.
What I meant to say was that it was
a great-honor to have such a word in
the family.
“Tell us all about it,” said Pinky
Pig, who had just arrived on the
scene.
“Yes, tell us,” said Sammy Sausage.
“I will tell you,” agreed Porky Pig,
•if only Miss Ham will stop saying
Billy things such as repeating ‘with

the remotest idea what I meant.”

away, across the sea,” said
Porky, “there is a flower which has
lived there for many years—not the
same flower but Its relations —its re
lations which came before

•iris this flower which has such a
wonderful name —It’s a most beauti
ful word.”
“Tell it to us,” said the pigs. “We’d
like to hear about a beautiful word,
though of course we don’t take much
stock in beauty.”
“Of course not,” said Porky.
“Go on,” Miss Ham urged. “You
keep stopping."
“Friends, Pigs, and all of you, I
must not be interrupted if I am to
continue,”
“He must not be interrupted,” the
pigs all said. And then they kept
very quiet while Porky went on talk
ing.
“The name of the flower Is called
the Cyclamen flower, and it comes
from the word circle, meaning some
thing round.”
Of course when all the pigs heard
such a very big word it was all they
could do to keep from squealing, but
'they managed to ■ ,
stay quiet.

cyclamen flowers— or rather the stems
of the flowers. And so not only has
the flower that name but it has an
other named after one of the Mrs.

that to me Is very fine.”
“We might have known,” said Miss
Ham, “that somewhere in the story
there would be something about
food.”
“Well, I’m sure I can’t help it If It
happens to be good to eat and if our
family enjoys it,” said Porky.
“It’s fine to have such a name to ■
our food as Cyclamen too. But bread

Deserving a Double Honor.
It takes a brave spirit to bear with
out complaint a secret trouble. As long
as we can talk about our trials, or
while we know that others realize what
we are enduring, and sympathize with
us, it is comparatively easy to smile
cheerily and be patient. But honor is

USE OF PRISON LABOR
IS PROFITABLE PLA^i
Report Shows Eight Counties
Trying It Successfully.
Harrisburg, Pa., July 0. —In a letter
to county administrators, Howard
Heinz, United States food administra
tor for Pennsylvania, directed atten
tion to the advisability of employing
county jail prisoners wherever pos
sible at various kinds of labor, thus
releasing men f< t *r military or other
essential service for the country.
The state board of public charities
lias sent forward to Mr. Heinz a re- j
port showing -most gratifying results j
from the working out of this plan i
■ which is operating under the act of tin
legislature of June 17, 1917.
In many counties of the state a
large part of the jail population is
'profitably employed, as the following
statement demonstrates:
In Beaver county prisoners are em
ployed in farming and street work.
In Berks county they are farming
a twelve # re pint of ground, raising
vegetables.
, Blair county prisoners are farming
six or eight acres, raising produce for
jail purposes.
Cambria county employs its prison
ers at farming and road building.
In Delaware county they are work
ing on the county almshouse farm.
Road building and farming are keep
ing part of Fayette county's jail popu
latlon busy. t i avera V of twelve
prisoners daily are paroled to work for
formers in Lehigh county.
Thirty-five prisoners in Luzerne
county are at work at the county
farms or employed at woodchopping
for the benefit of the mothers’ pension
.fund.

Anonymity in Literature.
A writer in the Boston Transcript,
speaking of a man who had written
. much for publication but always anony
mously, says: “I doubt the wisdom of
this on practical grounds; for the pub
lic likes to know whose work It Is
reading; a pseudonym is far better
than nothing, and if persisted In is as
| good in the long run as the right
name; but a book by an abstraction, by
nobody, generally fails to win the read
er’s interest, unless a rumor is put
about that there is a mystery concern
ing the authorship, and that the author
Is a famous man trying a new experi
ment.” He might have added that
anonymity is not profitable to the
writer, especially if he is capable of
good work. He gets no credit with
the public for what he does; whereas
his name if It accompanied his pub
lished writing should become a dis
tinct asset, editors, especially of maga
zines, being governed to some extent
In their acceptances by the value of a
name, and persistent use of a name
even when attached to matter of trivial
quality has become a source of liberal
'■uconfe to many a writer.”

To Warm Room Evenly.
The temperature of a heated room
is several degrees warn cr at the ceil
ing than at the floor. To equalize the
temperature, it is necessary for the
air to be in circulation. This may be
accomplished with an electric fan, but
to prevent any unnecessary draughts,
the blast from the fan should be oou
! fined. As the air must be driven from
the floor to the ceiling, place the fan
in one corner of the room in such a
position that it will drive the air up
wards. To keep the air confined make
a cardboard tube about six Inches in
diameter to carry the air up and across
the ceiling to the opposite corner of
the room. This will take the cold air
from the floor and force it out at the
ceiling level. Naturally 'the air cur
rents are forced from a lower to a
higher level, thus equalizing the tem
perature. —Popular Science Monthly.

Kaiser Orders Parleys With Russians
Ended When He Hears of Murder i
of Ambassador.
London. July .—-Fragments of news'!
from various sources indicate the as-1
sassination of Count von Mirbach, the |
Gentian umbassadi r to Russia, was
accompanied by a formidable uprs'ng 1
iigu nst the in M scow. |
(Count von Mirbach was killed in j
the embassy in Moscow, Saturday!
afternoon. The assailants, who were
Social revolutionists (anti-Bolshoviki)
used bombs.)
A Russian wireless despatch asserts
the uprising has been completely sup
pressed. The tone of the message in
dicates the suppression was accom
panied with sanguinary violence, the
orders being that all who showed re
( sistance to the Bolshevik! should be
“shot on the spot.”
The Russian wireless circulated the
following, signed by M. Araloff. the
chief Moscow conuniss'oner:
“The Social revolutionists, by fraud
ulent names, captured fur a few hours
a small part of Moscow and f/te gov
ernment teegrnph office, whence they ;
Issued false reports of die suppression
of the Soviet in Mos ow. I beg to an
nounce that the mutiny was caused
by a group of cheeky fools, and was
suppressed without difficulty by the
Moscow garrison. The mutineers have
been arrested and order has been re- j
si ored.
“The counter revolutionary r's'ng in j
Moscow has been suppressed and the !
Social revolutionaries are makTg a
most ignominious flight. Orders "have
been, issued to arrest and to d'sarm
all members of the So ial rev. lotion
ary detachments and to shoot on the ■
spot all who res'st.
“Special orders have been issued to j
secure all members, of the oxecut ve
committee of the Social revolutionary
party.
“The Red Guards must* continue
watchful. The mobilization of o’T
] forces must continue and all Soc'al
j revolutionaries must disarm to the
i hist man.”
j Several hundred Russ'ans, including
the Social revolutionary leader Alex
androvitch, have l o n arrested.
A telegram fr ■ he semi-official j
German Wolff bureau, dated Sunday, j
from Moscow, reported, according to 1
Copenhagen advices, that a serious i
counter revolution had broken out In |
Moscow.
Fighting of great severity was re- j
norted on the streets.
As soon as Emperor Will him heard |
of the assassination of Count von Mlr-
the German ambassador to’ Rus
sia, he ordered the foreign secretary,
Dr. von Kuehlmann. to break off ne
gotiations with the Russian delegates
in Berlin. This information is sent
by the Exchange Telegraph company
corresp ndent at Amsterdam.
(The delegates referred to were
sent by the Bolsheviki to Berlin some
time a-ro to adjust various questions.)
A strong guard has been placed be
fore the house of the Bolsheviki am
bassador in Berlin, as it is feared the
populace of the capital will start anti-
Russian demonstrations.
All the German newspapers say the
murder of Count von Mirbach must
inevitably have a great influence on
Russo-German relations.
The quarter in Moscow where the
German embassy Is situated was sur
rounded by troops after the assassin
ation of Count von Mirbach.
Severe control has been establish
ed over all persons arriving and lenv
‘xig the city.
Origin Claimed by Turks.
According to the Osmanll historians,
the original Turk was a grandson of
Noah. Though there were only eight 1
people in the ark when it was first
floated, there were nine, it is asserted,
when it landed at Mount Arrat. The
additional one was the eldest son of
Japhet, born du:' x the flood. His
name was Turk, a descendant in the
fourth generation, one Alindje Khan,
had two sons (twins) who were named
Tartar-Khan and Mogul-Khan. Tartar
was the father of the Turks; Mogul
was the father of the Mongols. Turks
and Mongols wore thus closely related
by birth, and the wars which at once
broke out between them, and the rec
onciliations that speedily ensued, had
much of the nature of family quarrels.
The Turks were the more frequently
triumphant, one Mongol throne after
another yielding to their arms. Not till
the Christian era was well advanced
tiki the ethnological name of those chit,
dren of Japhet appear in history.
From Old Tins, $900,000.
A conference, representative of mu

waste. .
The lord mayor of Birmingham, who
presided, stated that in Birmingham
600 tons of old tins were collected an
nually by the refuse disposal depart
ment, and that the recovered tin was
sold at sl,f>oo a ton. The sum of $30,-
000 was obtained from the sale of re
covered waste paper. Food for poul
try and pigs was made from material
from the corporation slaughterhouses;
condemned fish and meat were con

Are You One of Them?
There are a great many people
who would be very much benefited by
taking Chamberlain’s Tablets for a
weak or disordered stomach. Are
you one of them? Mrs. M. R. Searl,
Baldwinsville, N. Y., relates her ex
perience in the use of these tablets:
“I had a bad spell with ray stomach
about six months ago, and was trou
bled for two or three weeks with gas
and severe pains in the pit of my
stomach. Our druggist advised me
to take Chamberlain’s Tablets. I
took a bottle home and the first dose
relieved me wonderfully, and I kept
on taking them until I was cured.”
These tablets do not relieve pain, but
after the pain has been relieved may
prevent its recurrence.—Adv.

I PLAN ACTIVE WAR ON PESTS
i West Indian Sugar Planters Seek Aid
of the Lizard and a Species
of Fungus Growth.
Lizard farming and fungus cultiva
tion are means adopted in the West
Indies to protect the sugar industry.
It has been discovered that the frog- 1
hopper (Thomaspis sacharina), so-1
called on account of Its great leaping I
powers, is the greatest pest of the
sugar cane, and that it multiplies by
thousands on single plants, sucking
the sap from roots and leaves. In the
last throe or four years two remedies
have been developed. F. W. Urlch,
a West entomologist, has dem
onstrated that lizards devous great
quantities of the immature hoppers,
and J. B. Rnrer. a United States my
cologist, has shown that spores of the
fungus known as “green muscardlne”
1 are peculiarly fatal to the adults. As
. part of the work to save the cane,
war has been begun in Trinidad, where
the investigation has been made,
against the rapacious mongoos, which
has made lizards scarce. In addition,
hundreds of lizards are collected in a
protective enclosure, and are encour
aged to multiply under favoring condi
tions of sand banks for burrows, with
an abundance of food and water. The
fungus is grown In test-tube cabinets,
which produce spores that are dusted
over the cane fields hy r special distrib
uting machines.

London, July 9. —Australian troops

says the official report from Field Mar
. lull Haig.
Several prisoners were taken.
The German artillery displayed ac
tivity in the Somme region during ihe
night. It was similarly active north
of Albert, in the vicinity <>f Beaumont-
Ilamel, and on the Flanders front in
the neighborhood of Betlmne.
In the course of the night Austra-,
'ian troops attacked and carried their
line forward to u depth of 609 yards,
fho operation moved the defenses on
ihe river ahead to correspond with the
push made by the Australians and
Americans in the July 4 attack just

With the American Army in France,
July 0. —Although the entire front con- j
quest continues in a state of tension !
in expectation of a renewal of the Ger- j
man drive, the enemy’s effort has not !
yet developed.
Comparative quiet prevailed in all ,
the American sectors.
There has been an increase in the ■
aerial activity, chiefly in the patrol- j
ling and scouting branches.
There are three logical points for
the enemy’s attack —the Chateau
* Thierry region, the line north of Cha-1
lons and in the neighborhood of Ab-'
bevilie, in the Flanders sector. An j
assault north of Chalons or against;
Abbeville would be less costly, but In j
the former he would get less Import-1
ant territory than before Abbeville, j
where his loss would be heavier.
From the best Information obtain-!
able it appears the Germans during
the coming offensive will have between i
thirty and forty divisions (14,000 in a !
division) capable of participating in j
the attack.
The American forces are resting'
their arms, awaiting the enemy often- t
sive. If it happens the enemy starts '
against the positions held by the'
Americans which seems likely, the ;
American troops will give a good ac- j
count of themselves.

i So far there has been no offic’al
statement of any kind ro throw light

naval officers.
Unotficiji / . word went forth that a
lefinite policy of action had been de
ermined upon, ending the long period
if waiting that followed the rise of
‘he Bolshevik!.
The understanding here has been
that for military reasons for the pres
ent, at least, there would he no an
nouncement of the exact nature of any
movement to he undertaken under the
new policy.
The t: sk of working out details and
leclding what to make ptibb'c and
when, is said to have been left to the
supreme war council tit Par s.
The situation of the Uzecho-Slovak
leghins not only in Sdieria, hut In th<’

The Reckless Girl.
Mrs. Mamie Golvln, New York’s re
cent prohibition candidate for con
gress, said In a stump speech:
“But there’s another side to this
question. If liquor on the man’s part
causes divorce, recklessness on the
woman’s part causes it also.
“I once knew a girl—she’s divorced
today, of course —who was warned by
a friend:
“ ’lf you marry that man, I warn
you, my dear, that he’ll lead a double
Mfe.’
“ ‘W£ll,’ said the girl, recklessly, ‘lf
I don’t marry him I’ll lead a single
tme. and that’s worse.’ ”
