Miss Ripple, who, very kindly, S9nt
all of it to The News. This paper
made comments upon the death of the
boy, and last week's Louisville Courier
stole the whole article bodily. But
that is not the worst of it. Last even

gave the Courier credit for it.

Sunday night, the sermon last night
bt the Biptist church was preached
by Rev. It. M. Dungan. Tho subject
of his discourse was, "Obedience '
lie wm prooaoiy nil the pulpit again
this evening. Mr. Dungan is an enter
taining and instructive speaker and a
safe teacher of the Word.
It is to be hoped that Mr. Hull will
soon be able to be out again. He has
done excellent work in presenting the
pHin facts of the gospel, and his
plea for an undivided Christianity
and a permanent union of all the
followers of the Mustor is one of the
grandest p'.oas anyone could make,
May the divisions all be broken down

The offenders who have been dis
turbing the meetings in South Park
became "'offended" when they found
out that the meetings wore not being
conducted for their especial amuio
mont. To heat aua light a large
building for religious caeetiegs and
then have the preacher and workers
persistently disturbed by silly boys, or
young women, is not to b tolerated
The law is very plain, and that species
of "fun" is costly if a complaint is filed
with the county attorney. "A word
to the wise is sufficient" and to those
who are not wise words have been
multiplied till the number of them is
surelv also sufficient.
BOUNDARIES OF NATIONS.
Barriers That Divide the Frontiers
Great Countries.
of
Any one who has ever happened to
walk, drive or cycle, or even train
through Europe knows what crossing
the frontier means. Every road and
every railway line has its guard and
custom houses. Not a child nor a dog
can pass without customs examina
tions and vexatious formalities of all
sorts. Particularly Is this the case
between those old enemies, France and
Germany. There Is no river of any
size, no line of hills, or any other
natural boundary line along the north
eastern boundary of Elsass-Lothring-en
and the still French Loraine. Here
a string of forts guards each side ot
a narrow neutral strip; strategic rail
ways are ready to bring up at a mo
ment's notice all the munitions of
modern war; and It has been said the
expense entailed on each country in
this way alone eats up enough money
to run the entire government of a
praall country like Switzerland. Fur
ther south, the boundary between Italy
and France Is guarded with equal care.
The Alpes Maritimes divide the two
countries and might be thought a suf
ficient natural barrier. But not a bit
of it! Guards and blockhouses may
be seen on the very summits of the
bleak heights, and woe betide the un
happy tourist who unconsciously
crosses the snowy boundary! Ger
many, too, has another frontier which
gives her much trouble that which
borders on Rusian Poland. The vast
sandy plains -which run south from
Memel are sparsely inhabited, but are
most carefully fortified. One curious
precaution Is that the main lines of
railway end In termini at the fron
tier, and the passenger has to change
on to quite a different gauge on the
Russian side. This is, of course, to
prevent armored trains or supplies
being run through in time of war.
Austria is fortunate in having natural
barriers, mountains on the northwest
and the great Danube on her southern
flank.

"Civilization.
MaJ. Theodore Sternberg of Ells
worth, who is paymaster 111 the army
of the Philippines, has this to say in
prophecy of an evolution which may
be expected to take place among the
manila fair sex: "I saw a native wom
an whose scanty skirt barely came to
her knees wearing garters, no stock
ings, no shoes only garters. Now.
that woman was on the road to civi
lized dress. She will have to wear
stockings in order to dress up to those
garters; and then shoes will have to
come to protect the stockings, and
there you are. I notice that American
skirts and shirtwaists are worn more
and more." Kansas City Journal.

The Berlin correspondent of the New

continually beyond their means au I
offers them no way out of the Lurdtn
of debt thus contracted excipt rich
marriages? The army officers who are
so placed socially that what for others
is a choice la for them a duty--who
aro obliged to keep up appearances, to
participate in tho most custly social
amusements are more poorly paid
than many a Bhop clerk or skilled ar
tisan. The rich man's son, in the ar

salary on a bouquet for the latest bal

Mr. R. I. Pocock, the English nat
uralist, tells an interesting story of th
spiders which dwell in the flowjr ol
the pitcher plant of Indian and Austra
lia. This flower Is an insect trap.
Around Its upper edge it is brilliantly
colored and sweet with honey. Low;.-!
down the wall3 are waxy, and s:t
smooth that no insect c;in gain a bol l
upon them. The bottom of the pitchei
is filled with a liquid, containing sev
eral acids, which possesses the powe:
of digesting organic matter. The luck
less insects which fall into this liquH
are gradually absorbed by the plant.
But while most Insects carefully avoi'l
this death-trap, a particular species ol
spider chooses it as a dwelling place
By spinning a little web like a carpel
over a part of the waxy interior of tin
pitcher it Is enabled to stay there in
safety. These spiders have apparently
chosen their singular home just be
cause of Its danger -. In such v place
they are protected against their ene
mies. If alarmed, the spider drops into
the liquid at the bottom of the plant
and remains there until his enemy hsi?
disappeared, escaping afterward, piob
ably by means of a silken cable it hao
spun as it fell. A short submergence
In the digestive fluid is not Injurious
