The6e horses at that time were all in apparently healthy condition and thus wera sold to various farmers and hoi-se men throughout that community. In a short time, however, several of these horses began to show symptoms of glanders, a dangerous Infectious dis ease, thereby jeopardizing the health of hundreds of horses In neighboring countle3, as each horse In the car was undoubtedly h source of Infection. Glanders Is communicable to man and, as In horses, the disease Is fatal. Following tho flnvftlopmHnt of these cases, agents of the State Livestock Sanitary Board began to make a thor ough Investigation. By the'tracing of all animals In thin shlnment, by the testing of these and In addition all ex posed animals with malleln, an efficient diagnostic agent, and by an examina tion of blood samples collected from the liorsns and submitted to the board'# laboratory, nearly all of the twenty six, besides other horses, tn all thirty three, ware found to be Infected with glanders. All diseased animals were destroyed and thorough disinfection was carried out In all stables and on all premises where these animals were found and thus the horse owners of that com munity were relieved from any further loss. THEN TIIERE WAS SILENCE An amusing story Is being told of Sir Douglas Dawson, who had bo much to do with the preparation for Prince Arthur'ii wedding. Sir Douglas had a very worrying time, and the story goes that one day he went Into a room in the palace where a friend was sit ting, and, sinking Into a chair, he remarked, wearily: "If anyone so much ns breathes the word 'wedding' in my presence I'll knock him down!" He had scarcely uttered the words when the door opened and King George came in, looking worried. "Oh, by tho way," he began at once, "about this wedding " George got no furthtr than the word, for, in spite of all his efforts. Sir Douglas' friend was forced to laugh. The King glanced at him in surprised annoyance, but laughed heartily when Douglas explained what he had Just threatenod.—London Tit- Bits. POETIC LICENSE Sometimes children hit the nail on the head unconsciously. Bobby, who lives up In the northwest section and goes to Thomson school, has a mother very fond of books. He had often hoard her speak of "poetlo license" and had also read In the comic sup plements about the sad fate of the Spring poet, who was dally thrown out of <Jie window or to the lions to make a Roman holiday. One day mother and Unole Hunk were talking and poetry was the sub ject. "Mother," said Bobble, reflectively, "do poets have to go down to the mu nicipal building to get a license 7" "Why, no child; what ever put such an Idea in your head?" laughed the mother. "Well," drawled Bobby, "I heard' you and Hunk talking about poetic license and I thought it meant that everybody hated poeta, so that they had to go and get a license same its a dog."—Washington Star. LINK LOLLOP'S COMPLAINT [From the Kansas Olty Star.] "It seams to me," complains Link Lollop, of Pleasant Valley, "that ene of the orylng needs ef the ago Is a blotter which win remove a stain from a repu tation which has passed through the seering fires of sin.

COMMON FORM OP INSANITY A party of Clev®J»»Jers entertained soma holiday visitors last week and having showed them everything In teresting In Cleveland proper, they had to tuke them out to Newburgh for a view of the asylum, The auporln. tendent was in a genial frame of mind and he oonduoted the bunoh per sonally.
