Misa Maude Gibson was born In Lake

1905, aged 13 years, 3 months and 10 days.
She was the only living daughter of Archie
Gibsonand.ltiswife Huttie Gibson;..who
died several years ago. Maudo always
seemed to be a strong, healthy girl, and
her death cornea as a great shock to n great
many. ,She has spent most of her life in
Lake Villa and vicinity, but last spring
she went to Chicago to work, and about
six weeks ago came home to her father's
and became steadily wane.. All was done
that loving hands could do, but the complication of diseases was more than could
be conquered by human skill and she
passed peacefully away "Wednesday ovening. Death was directly due to heart
failure. . The funeral was held at her late
'home Friday afternoon, Rev. Hitchcock
officiating. The sorrowing father has the
sympathy of all In bis bereavement.

VEGETABLES AND FRUIT TO REPLACE MEAT.

Dictates of DcGtlny Polnt'Stronyly Toward This EndAbundance and


Cheapness of Nature's Production
Bound to Turn the Scale.
That Americana arc great meat cat*
ors may bo considered a fact of der i v a t i o n from tho hunting aod fishing
stage of the coimt'ry's lifo. So long
as moat was abundant and cheap It
had tho recommendations which Ipd
to Its choice an the principle article oC
food. The vegetarian who here and
thero raised Ma volco in protest
against tho consumption of flesh fooda
was little heeded. A people are guided In the selection of their foods very
little,by deliberate choice. They eat:
the Uilnga which ,are closest to hand.
The time may come with that remote
future to which IB referred everything
Utopian when nations will deliberately select the predominating articles of
their diet with reference to tho development of specific racial charnoterisr
tics. But at present people In general
tiro not oven convinced that what
they cot has relevancy to what, as a
nation, they become.
For a few centuries to come, Americana certainly will continue to eat
the "food convenient to them," while
good-humoredly allowing the cerealiBts to tickle their palates with health
fooda. But own American independence or Indifference la amenable, to
the dictates of destiny. Just now
Americans seem destined to drift more
strongly than ever toward a fruit diet
The moving con el derail on Is the fancy
figures, with an upward tendency, at
which flesh foods are sold. The, other
consideration Is the abundance and
cheapness of fruits. As wisdom takes
counsel of necessity* a third motive,
which of Itself would not have great
weight," la the superior wholesomeness
of fruit foods.
We produce tho biggest apple crops
In the world-, our peach crops arc unparalleled, our watermelons and small
fruits respond in abundance to tho
mere tickling of the soil with a hoe.
Tho same story holds true of all domostlce fruits. But this term bas tiecome elastic. California distributes
throughout tho country great quantities of tropical fruits and the area of
cultivation of these Is constantly oxtending.' When the Panama trench Is
dug the Pacific coast fruits can be
brought to the eastern markets .with
greater celerity and less cost Mod
cm means of transportation have
made the plantations of the West In
dlea also almost the same as though
they were within tho country confines
U* Is safe to predict that the con
sumption of bananas especially wil
soon be Increased. Oranges aro being
consumed In rapidly Increasing quao
titles. Certainly during tbe- summer
months fruit will be king. During the
winter months the force of habit will
prevail and more fruit .and less meat
will be eaten.Baltimore Herald.
Shooting a Tiger Wolf. .
A gentleman residing at Qlencon
nor took up a position in tbe buah In
the hope of potting a "buck," and hid
himself near a bush path on a hillside.
Suddenly he heard a rustling noise
in. the bush, and raising bis head a
few Inches from the ground be per

tbe hill. In order to be ready for all
possible contingencies he drew-and
cocked his weapon. The dark object

Ladles Crossed Over. Pontoon.

rained the other day In Paris with a
remorseless fury. There was an exhibition of fencing which drew all Paris
and when It was over the ladles found
tho street turned Into a lake. How
were they to cross? All the military
men, especially the engineers, were
nonplused. Then the minister had an

"What's your name?" asked an officer,
turning fiercely upon her. "My name
Is Mattle Reedy," waa the answer, "but

time she had never met or even seen
John Morgan. Somehow the story
came to-hi B ears. He sought her out,

Some Object Lesson*.

A Massachusetts clergyman stood


before his congregation with a dog beside htm and talked on the subject of
kindness to animals. The Innovation
made a strong Impression, but there
la no doubt that It opens up a somewhat dangerous precedent. Will the
next Massachusetts clergyman who Inveighs against horse racing find It
necessary to use a live horse for an
object lesson? Or If lie discusses on
the dangers that surround the devoted missionary (n Oriental lands,
will he feel obliged to Illustrate his
theme with the tiger of the Jungle and
the elephant of the foothills?
There are few good things In this

Ultimate Use for Drawings.


Princess Mathilda was an artist In
the passionate protection which she
afforded to artists as well as by her
love for-the beautiful and her constant effort to attain it. Her talent
was by no meant! despicable, though
It produced nothing very remarkable.
She studied attentively, and her drawIngs were frequently hung at the ex*
hlhltlons of art, but In her own. house
they were banished to the studio. She
never "showed off"; beside*, no one
knew so well as herself where they
were wanting- "When I am gone,"
she would say, "what will be the use
of them? They may light a fire."

fijinnc i a i
sua kc up
Kansas has experienced In a dozen years,
accompanied by a political upheaval of
ndHinic force. It was upon tho brain of
Charles J. Devlin that the clot formed,
just before his enormous monthly payroll was dne, and no other man in Kansas could have brought on so much trouble by falling ill as Devlin did.
'In tho first place he was rated the
richest man In tho State np t the hour
that tUo bursting of A tiny blood vessel
In hi* brain caused an apoplectic stroke,
his fortune being estimated at $3,000,000 to $-1.000,000, Then, his interests
were BO diversified and geographically
scattered that crowding him Into Involuntary bankruptcy affected an uncommonly large number of people. But the
great cause of bis present troubles, and
those of thousands of others* was his
practice of relying on his memory. He
owned or controlled four banks two In
Kansas and two In Illinois and 20 other
corporations, among them two railroads.
Tbo affairs of the.ie 30 corporations he
carried In his head. Ho had no knowledge of bookkeeping, but possessed tho
most Implicit faith In his ability to keen
his fiitanci.il hearings by the compass of
his memory. And, more Is the wonder,
ho kept them In that way successfully
until an accident happened to the compass, and then no one else aboard bis
financial bark could make even a rational gueas ns to where they were. In
a few days they struck the rocks.
A U n i q u e Figure.

Devlin la a unique figure In finance.


He Is SL-LouIsan by birth, 54 years of
age. As a young man he was clerk In *
coat otllcc anil eventually he became man.nger of a small coal company In northern Illinois. In 18SO he was made manager of tho fuel properties of the Saata
Fc system, and when that company went
Into a receivership Devlin leased Us coal
properties. Ho acquired mines In Illinois, Missouri and Kansas. When the
miners and tho big coal companies had
trouble Iii 1807 Devlin- sided -with the
miners and kept his mines going, with
the result that be made money fast and
acquired other coat properties. He became the richest man in Kansas, but good
fortune did not breed snobbery. He spoke
an pleasantly to a laborer in tho street
whom he knew as to tho Governor of the
State, Much comment lids he caused by
lifting his hat to an old negro couple
of his acquaintance. Everybody looked
alike to Devlin. Another marked trait
was his desire to see young men .succeed. lie gave them a chutitc wherever
he could. Ho lived lu a pretty home,
with iplctidid flowers, and other evidences
of good taste, but uo cxcluslvcness. He
enjoyed sitting on the porch and having'
the children romp on the lawn.
Work was his recreation and be was
a veritable engine. He was the busiest
man in the West. But he had no faith
in bookkeepers nnd stored all tbo details
of his business lu his head. Most of
bis concerns were making money, but all
wero relying upon him as tho motive
power to keep them In operation. His
credit was large. State Treasurer Kelly
bad $.717,000 stored In one of his banks
tho First National of Topeka.
A few weeks ugo he gave out and was
forced to his bed. Ills mind became a
mazt and lie could not plan a few days
ahead. When Devlin's Drain stopped
working, his enterprises had to cease, operation, for* there was uo one lu the harness who knew which way to turn. Three
of- his four bankH are In the hands of
receivers, 1G of hi* 20 corporations are
In bankruptcy, hundreds of bank depositors are seeking return of their uavlnga,
hundreds of coal miners are fearful lest
'tho Devlin mines shall be closed and
throw them and their families Into the
clutches of want, and the people -of the
.State are In a fever of excitement on
account of the probable. ThVtdtal liabilities of Devlin aro estimated at $3,000,000.

trouble, stomach and liver trouble, and
other ailments, which aro allowing to the
kidneys being weak and out of order.

trouble will disappear and you will be
restored .to perfect health.
How to Till If You Have Kidney Trouble.
You can easily determine if your kidneys are out of orderby setting aside for
24 hours a bottle of the urine passed
upon arising. If upon examination it Is
cloudy or milky or has a brick-dust sediment or small particles float about In it,
your kidneys ore diseased and Foloy's

however, begged a great favor of the
king. Could he have the umbrella
'- instead of the money? The favor was
- granted, and before many days had

^umbrella for sale, and it was knocked

PRIZB8 WORTH HAVING OFFERED


'BY GOVERNMENTS.
Who Has a Scheme for the Eradlcatlcnjtf the Cactus In Queensland?
Find an Alloy In Diamond Cutting
That IB Without Danger to Health.'
Many persons, no doubt, will conclude that there IB, practically no
chance of securing such desirable
prizes us Uolargo sums of money
flvo prlios each worth 8,000 otfore^
by the Nobel bequest, where It IB absolutely needful to have attolnmonU
of both a learned and brilliant nature;
yet, sayo Tit Bits, a study of tho following particulars of prizes which aro
being, offered today will show that'
there aro other splendid opportunities
well within tho scopo of most 'people.
Among the many varletlee of cactus
there Is ono which Is known a* the
prickly pear; It Is a rather attractive
looking: plant, but Its leaves are covered with hair sharp enough to pierce
the hands of any ono- who Is BO rashas to touch It. Tho. plant came originally .from: America; but after It was
introduced In some manner or other
Into Queensland It spread so rapidly
and to 'such an extent * that In somo
districts It has practically destroyed
all other vegetation. The' Queensland
government Is still offering a reward
of 6,000 to any one who can devlso
a method by which It con be complete*
Ijr eradicated/
The Briteh consul at Palermo not
long since sent "a dispatch to the For'
elgn Office containing Information regarding a premium of 21000 that the
municipality of Catania ' la offering.
la order to encourage local Industrial
enterprise this aura 10 to be awarded
to the individual who establishes
some new Industry In the town. This
trade Is to, he of such a nature that
it will employ not* 'fewer than .100
workmen. A further 1,000 will bo
paid for every! additional fifty bands
that are 'afterward, employed. These
sums would bo payable, at 'the end ot
the year In five equal Instalments.
Fire* hundred pounds la to bo obtained from the. government of Holland. AB moat people are aware, the
Dutch are the most expert, diamond
cutters In the. world, but In this diamond cutting -It Is necessary to i
an alloy which Is dangerous to health.
Is it possible to find a method of doing
without the aid of this alloy?
Again, to turn to a- very different
source of money making by competition, there IB 600 being offered by
the well known firm of Rlcordl & Co.
In order to encourage English opera.
that firm boa offered thla prize to bo
competed for by English subjects
alone, 'and has guaranteed to produce
the successful* work at (he Royal Opera House, Covent Garden. ' 'WT. Massenet has already been secured OB one
of the adjudicators*
Women can gain a prize of 200
which Is: being offered, by the Women's Institute of Science at Naples; It
IB to be given for the best work on
any subject ot scientific research, but'
It must be based on Independent laboratory experiments.
Another Interesting subject -is "The
best, least Irksome. and least costiy
method of securing the male able*
bodied youth of this country for service In the " regular- or'auxlMarr forces
as existing, ; and for expanding .thesa
forces In the time* of war." For ,tae
threo' beat casAya dealing with these
topics the Royal United Service Institution offers 'prises consisting of ' 100
guineas, 30 guineas and 10 guinea*.
