Tho report of the committee home missions of the Preabyteriaa synod ef Illinois 'at Carbondalo' was made through its chairman. Eev. T. D. Logan of Springfield. , Neatly one-half of the contribution* to home missions is uced outside the synod of Illinois, though much more work should be done in Chicago, in the mining dlstriota and in the rural locall- ities among the state's population of 6,000,000 people. Four hundred and thirty-two teachers were supported by the Woman's Board of Home Missions. The board's work for Freedjnen cares for 257 ministers and 356 teach­ ers, employed io 401 churches. The synod of Illinois gave $11,394. Of this amount the women gave $5,34S. The amount given for home mission work outside the synod was $40,514, while $44,700 was expended in Illinois. This is by no means all the work done by our churches. One hundred and thirty-six churbhes and 36 missions re­ ceived aid. The assistant churches raised $86,083 for sdlf support. Atten­ tion was called to ihe great loss the synod sustained in the death of the late T. S. Perrin of Alton. "The work of the church extension committee in Chicago," said Dr. Logan, "ustjistti 2G churches in supporting a pastor. In Chicago there are four mis­ sions among Bohemians, Slavs, Jews and Persians, also self-supporting Chi­ nese work." The committee recommended the budget system of raising funds. Dr. W. S. P. Bryan offered the fol­ lowing resolution, which was unani­ mously adopted: "Resolved, That the synod of Illinois of the Presbyterian church, U. S. A., representing 3,222 members and 615 churches in the state of Illinois, re­ spectfully petition the supreme court of Illinois to grant a rehearing of the case recently decided by which the reading of the Bible was forbidden in *>ub!ic schools." Paralysis of Infants Grips. An epidemic of Infantile paraly­ sis in Illinois is being investi­ gated by Dr. J. A. Egan, secretary of the state board of health. Two vic­ tims of the disease, now recovering through the use of a new serum, are the daughters of Congressman Frank O. Lowden, eleven and eight years old respectively. Dr. Egan is watching their cases at the congressman's home near Oregon, 111., and if the serum proves success­ ful the state will secure samples for further test and for the purpose of stamping out, if possible, one of the greatest menaces to the child popula­ tion. The state board of health has been receiving reports from various parts of the state for several months, and it is doing what it can to combat the spread of the disease. It has taken the stand that the disease is infec­ tious, if not contagious, and whenever a patient is found to be suffering with the dangerous disorder, strict segrega­ tion and disinfection are ordered. In many localities the number of deaths amount to 10 per cent of those infected by the disease and n6t more than 25 per cent of the victims ever completely recover, many often being crippled for life. Acute poliomyelitis, the correct name for infantile paralysis, is not a new disease, but its prevalence is calling for greater activity in combat­ ing it. The board says Illinois is com­ paratively free from the disease, how­ ever. Compared with Iowa and some other states, the number of cases in Illinois is few. himuhiiua ai kidney dis* Capen Scores Spoils System. Baneful effects of the spoils system still surviving in over thirty depart­ ments of the state service were point­ ed out by Charles L. Capen, of Bloom- ington. in an address delivered before the Illinois State Conference of Char­ ities at Galesburg. Mr. Capen used as illustration the influence of the spoils regime on employes at the Pon- tiac reformatory and Chester and Joliet penitentiaries. Mr. Capen is president of the Illinois Civil Service Reform association and was chairman of the Peoria Good Government Con­ ference last June. He emphasized the point that one of the three de­ mands of the Peoria conference was for the enactment of a comprehensive state civil service, or merit system, law. He recommended that the voters of Illinois vote "yes" November 8 next on the three "little ballot" propo­ sitions endorsed by the Peoria con­ ference. It is predicted that the State Chari­ ties conference will adopt resolutions demanding a thorough-going state civil service law. Mr. Capen's subject was "The Spoils System as it Affects the Penal and Reformatory Institutions of Illinois." Illinois 8upreme Court.

Railroad School at Champaign. Railroad presidents of the roads running through or in Illinois will assemble at the University of Illinois at Champaign on November 9 to in­ quire into the feasibility of interesting themselves in the establishment of a complete and thorough railroad school at the university. Such schools are now being operated by the Northern Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads with a degree of success, and Dean W. F. N. Goss of the engineering de­ partment of the University of Illinois has been considering with the New York Central lines a plan for the es­ tablishment of such a department at Illinois. It is expected that the party visit­ ing the university will number about fifty, among whom will be the most prominent railroad men in the state. With more support from the railroads the university will be able to educate more competent engineers. Baptist State Convention Ends.

The latest of bis experiences occurred here when Sellers was struck by a fast freight on the Chicago & Northwestern rail­ road. He was whirled twenty feet and struck a passenger train stand­ ing at the local station. Sellers was taken to the hospital. Physicians re­ ported he had only received a few bruises. Havana.--Domestic troubles and the alleged unfaithfulness of Mrs. Charles Anno led to her murder here, while living apart from her husband pend­ ing the outcome of a divorce suit. Anno, when cornered half an hour later by Sheriff Crum and his depu- tfes, made a fight with his revolver, but seeing escape impossible, turned the weapon upon himself and sent a bullet into his brain. No one else was Injured during the fusilade Pana.--The committee of seven have sent out their advance guard to Pana to advertise a public meeting to be held at the KoSev opera house, when prominent men will be present and speak on how one should cast the little ballot The proposition of the "Initiative and Referendum," civil service, "Corrupt Practice of Elec­ tions," will also be liberally discussed at the meeting. Chicago. -- One of the largest specimens ever seen of j:he teeth of the hairy maiiifnoth was found by J. H. Knftpp, 1416 Vinc<?nnes avenue, Chi­ cago Heights. It weighs ten pounds and measures ten inches by five and one-half inches by four inches. The nature of the specimen was verified by several experts at the FVld mu­ seum, and it is larger than any the Jackson Park institution possesses. Knapp was digging for clams along a creek which runs southeast of Chi­ cago Heights when he came across the tooth of the prehistoric creature. Chicago.--A pprse containing $6,000 worth of negotiable notes, re­ ported to have been stolen from Julius Pauley, 749 Broadway, New York, a hair goods salesman, by a woman wearing a hobble skirt and a Parisian hat, was found in the corri­ dor near his room in the Palmer house. A servant found the purse and gave it to the clerk, who later turned It over to Detectives Wentzel and Kelly of the Central station. Pana.--By the use of a spreading adder serpent and a bottle of poison, Rev. Harmon Etter of tbe Baptist church of Pa&a won a religious de­ bate with Rev. Mr. Bauer of the Mor­ mon faith at Hanson, ten miles south of Pana. Rev. Mr. Bauer used the text from Mark 16: "These signs shall follow tbem that believe if they shall drink any deadly poison, which shall not hurt them; lay hands on the sick and they shall recover, and tahall take up a serpent and it shall not harm them." Rev. Mr. Etter pro­ duced a glass jar with a snake therein and upon the top of the jar he laid a vial of the deadliest poison, and said to Rev. Mr. Bauer: "Drink of the poison and take up the serpent, and if It do you no harm then I will join your faith and be baptized." Champaign.--Miss Annie Kelley has paid up and the "Tolono school whip­ ping case," for four years the talk of the country, is ended. Weary of be­ ing a fugitive and defeated in her struggle to induce the United States Supreme court to intervene in her be­ half, the fighting school teacher has listened to her father and paid to Mr. and Mrs, William Burke of Tolono the sum of $1,200. Because Miss Kel­ ley and her principal, Prof. Sherman Cass, punished fourteeu-year-old Mi­ chael Burke, his parents claim that the lad's spine was injured. The boy secured verdict of $1,800 for dam­ ages jointly against Cass and the girl. Carlinville.--Fred Loggins, a lad oi about fifteen years of age. found a suit ease near the old air shaft just north of the Chicago & Alton station in this city. It was hid under a pile of telephone poles. The lad took the suit case to the home of his uncle, C. E. Davis, who opened it aud found a ratchet brace, some quarter-inch twist drills, cartridges, fuse, soap, loose powder and a broken bottle, which contained nitroglycerin. Mr. Davis at once guessed that the outfit belonged to the yeggmen who tried to blow the safe* of the Carlinville laun­ dry. He brought It up town and turned it over to Marshal Graves, whe still has it in his possession. Aurora.--The board . of edtica tion of the East Aurora public schools will advertise this week foi bids for erecting a $200,000 high school building. Joseph C. Llewelyn of Chicago is the architect who has the plans for the new structure.

Miss Golden has been teaching in the Gallatin county schools for forty-eight years. In th€ last year she never was absent oi tardy. She can recognise pupils in about half the residents of the couir ty, as most of her work has been !i the primary department. Bloomington.--Mrs. Mollie Boekej was sentenced to Joliet penitentiary for murdering her husband to get hi^ Insurance. She was brought bad, from Winnineg. Chicago.--Emil Brunke, 28 year old, 2133 Cortland street, a por ter, was instantly killed by falling nine stories in a freight elevator shaft to Steele, Wedeles & Co.'s warehouse at Dearborn street and the river.

Hills boro.--The annual hospital fair, given under the direction of the Hospital association, is beinj held in Brown's hall In this city. The proceeds from the fair go for the fond, to be used In building and as tablishing a hospital la this QitJ. order is often backache. Then comes pain In the hips and sides, lameness, soreness and urisarj troir hies. These are the earnings-- nature's signals for help. Doan's Kidney Pills should be used at the first sign. Ira Clark, North Main St., Savanna, 111., says • "I was confined to bed w i t h k i d n e y trouble and nev­ er expected to be up again. A doctor said I had fecute Inflammation of the bladder, but he could not help me. How grateful was I for the prompt relief Doan's Kidney Pills gave me! Continued use removed every sign -of vi vuuiw.

To appreciate fully this scrap of dia­ logue, quoted from London Punch, one ehou?d see the two odd characters en­ gaged in It. Apparently they parted satisfied, one that he had imparted some real information, the other that he had received some. Said one man : "D'you lveollec' old wot's-'is-name?" " 'Im with the collar?" "Aye!" "Wot ababt 'im?" " 'E'ad to go down"--jerk of the head--"you know--they giv^ 'lm wot you call it--didn't arf git H, I don't think!" "Reely!" " 'Adn't you 'eard, then?" "I did 'ear somefink, but no details, not afore now."--Youth's Companion. HIS LIVELIHOOD AT STAKE Certainly Candidate for Governor Could Not Expect to Gal That Vote. - An incident In which former Gov. Odell of New York figured as the vic­ tim was told by Col. James Hamilton Lewis at a recent banquet "When Gov. Odell was last running for office," said Col. Lewis, "there had been a great deal of talk about Nia­ gara falls and pie electrical power that could be conferred on all parts of New York. One day an old negro halted Mr. Odell and said: " 'Mr, Odell. i« y«v rtmniii* for JJOT' ner, sah ?' I am,' answered the -candidato. "'I guess yo' want my vote, den,' said the i>ld colored man. " "Well, I would like to have your vote, Zeb. I have known you for so many years.' " "Well, I Jist want to ask you a question, Mr. Odell, befo' I give mah vote to you. Are yo' for electric lights in dis town?" " 'Well, Zeb, I am for all modern im­ provements,' said Odell, with a slight flourlph. " 'Well, sah, 1 cain't vote for you,' said Zeb with firmness. *Yo" done for­ get dat I is a lamp lighter.'" AWFUL BUHUim ITCH CURED IN A DAY "In the middle of the night of March 80th I woke up with a buying Itch in my two hands and I felt as if I could pull them apart. In the morning the jjtchlng had gone to my chest and dur­ ing that day it spread all over my body. I was red and raw from the top of my head to the soles of my feet and I was In continual agony from the Itching. I could neither lie down nor sit up. I happened to see about Cuti- cura Remedies, and I thought I would give them a trial. I took a good bath with the Cuticura Soap and used the Cutlcura Ointment I put it on from my head down to tny feet and then went to bed. On the first of April I felt like a new man. The itching was almost gone. I continued with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment and during that day the itching com­ pletely left me. lYank Gridley, 325 East 43rd Street, New York City, Apr. 27, 1909."

He had married no fewer than four times, and all his wives were still in the fore. Accord­ ing to Pat's own account before the court where he was tried for bigamy and found guilty, his experiences were not altogether satisfactory. The judge, in passing sentence, expressed his wonder that the prisoner could be such a hardened villain as to de­ lude so many women. "Yer honor," said Pat, apologetical­ ly, "I was only try in' to get a good one, an' it's not aisy!"--Lipplncott's Magazine. Lovemskln0 and Practice, The only way to become an expert at lovemaking is to practice. This was the information handed out to a handful of hearers by the Hindu phil­ osopher, Sakharam Ganesh Pandit, in a lecture on "The Science of Love." "Love Is a divine discontent," Bald the philosopher, "and if you want to arouse love in others It can be done only by giving them love. How to levelop the emotion of love in another, is the great question of today--the art of making love. It needs a great deal of study and a great deal of prac­ tice." Planning a Desperate Revenge. The, haughty, imperious beauty handed him back his ring. "Now that all is over between us," she said, "I suppose you will buy a re­ volver and put an end to your wretch­ ed existence?" "Worse than that!" he hissed, being careful to introduce the necessary sibilant; "far wors-s-se! I shall steal a revolver! And I shall shoot your measly little sore eyed poodle!" A wild shriek burst from her Hps She fell upon her knees and But he had gone. Procrastination. "I heard a tale the other day of a postponing chap, who thought he'd buy a wheel so gay, but--'they will be cheaper, perhaps.' And so he dallied year by year, the cheapest wheel to buy; but long before the cheapest gear, that yap he had to die! And so, by putting off the day, we miss the wine of life; and some there are in just that way who thus will miss a wife! Get busy now, you timid swain, pro­ crastinate no more, for time Is surely on the wane, and you a ba<*ielor! Some wait too long to make a pick of husbands or of wlfp, and then some take^ a broken stick and make a mess of life."--H. B. Benedict, in Judge. His Defense. It was shortly after midnight, and the colonel had caught Rastus red- handed. "Well, Rastus, you old rascal, you," said he, "I've caught you at last. What are you doing in my henhouse?" "Why, Marse Bill," said the old man, "I--I done heerd such a cacklin' in dls yere coop, dat I---1 thought mebbe de ole hen done gone lay an alg, an' I--I wanted ter git it fo' you' breakfas* while It was fresh, suh."--Harper's Weekly. When He Hedged on Faith. "Dar's nuthin' lak faith," said Broth­ er Williams. "I once prayed a fat turkey off a high roost, but the sher­ iff took him f'm me ez I wuz gwine home ter cook him, an' I wus took ter Jail." "Why didn't you pray your way out of jail?" someone asked. "I would 'adone it," was the reply, "but I didn't want Providence ter know I was in no slch place." A Rood honest remedy for Rheumatism, Neuralgia and Sore Throat is Hamlinj Wizard Oil.
