"Boston’s stump” is the local name of the tower of the parish -church of St. Botolph, in Boston, England, which was damaged by lightning, not long ago. The church dates from the fourteenth century, and its tow er, 272 feet high, is the tallest but one among the parish churches of England. It has 365 steps, one for each day of the year, and the church has seven doors, fifty-two windows and twelve pillars, for the days in the week and the weeks and months in the year. For the twenty-four hours in the day there are twenty four steps in the porch by which the library is reached. Two flights of sixty steps lead to the roof, one for the seconds, the other for the min utes; and the tower is in four stories for the four seasons. Thus does time stand still in Boston. —Spring- field Republican. BABY’S QUILT. Get one and one-half yards of white eiderdown, if three-quarters of a yard wide, so that when it is folded over it makes a perfect square. Sometimes you can get it in remnant length, which comes cheaper. Turn in edges and buttonhole stitch all around with 'blue or pink wool, then make little bows of the came color baby ribbon and sew on here and there instead of the wool knots. It makes a warm Qnllt and is much easier to wash than those filled with cotton. —New York World. ALMOST A SHADOW Gained 20 lbs. on Grape-Nuts. There’s a wonderful difference be tween a food which merely tastes good and one which builds up strength and good healthy flesh. It makes no difference how much we eat unless we can digest it. It is not really food to the system until it •s absorbed. A Yorkstate woman says: I had been a sufferer for ten years with stomach and liver trouble, and nad got so bad that the least bit of t°od such as I then knew, would give me untold misery for hours after eating. “I lost flesh until .1 was almost a shadow of my original self and my siends were quite alarmed about me. First I dropped coffee and used ostum, then began to use Grape uts, although 1 had little faith it "°uld do me any good. Hut I continued to use the food and have gained twenty pounds in weight and feel like another person ' n every way. I feel as if life had Tn }y begun anew for me. I can eat anything I like now in federation, suffer no ill effects, be on Wk fee * rom morning until night. nereas a year ago they had to send fe away from home for rest while 0 hers cleaned house for me, this spring i have been able to do it my lelJ all alone. “ M y breakfast is simply Grape-Nuts h cream and a cup of Postum, with °metimes an egg and a piece of °* st > k’ lt generally only Grape-Nuts and Postum. And I can work until “°°n and not feel as tired as one ° Ur s work would have made me a fear ago." “There’s a Reason.” • ame given by Postum Cio., Battle Mich. Read., “The Road to e Lille,” in pkgs.

LOG PLACED ACROSS TRACK Over One Hundred and Fifty Shot* En tered Car*—Conductor Was Killed. Eight Arrests Made. in^m!v gh t a n’/ la - Thre6 men *re , kllled ad eleven injured, t\vo Ot whom will probably die. when fired into a Passenger tiam on the Birmingham Mineral rail road at Blocton, Ala. i he dead are: Conductor Joe T. Col- Ime; 0. Z. Dent, deputy sheriff- Wil lard Howell, non-union miner. The in jured are: Major F. if. Dodge, super intendent of safety, Tennessee Coal company, wounded in hand and leg; E. E. Cox, superintendent of mines, lennessee Coal company, sliahtly wounded in knee; A. E. Cross, chief clerk, superintendent’s office, wound ed in arm and knee; J. C. Johnson, deputy sheriff, slightly wounded in side; A. C. Bryant, deputy sheriff, slightly wounded in side; J. B. Cor nett, deputy sheriff, wounded in the back; W. H. McAulv, soldier, slight injuries; M. A. Pearson, soldier, wounded in left shoulder; J. C. Mar tin, wounded in head, back and arm; A. J. Myer, laborer, wounded in leg; Robert Sigmon, wounded in arm and breast. The train was a special bearing non-union men to the Blocton mines under guard of soldiers and deputies. On the outskirts of the town the en gineer suddenly saw a log across the track and at once a fusilade was fired into the train. The engineer did not stop, but let the cowcatcher throw the log from the track and put on full speed. The place where the at tack was made was in a cut, the ground being on a level with the low er part of the windows. The assail ants behind the rocks above poured down a murderous fire directly into the windows and at the engineer. Practically every window in the train was broken, and shots struck all parts of the engine and cab. The train pro ceeded to Blocton and the dead and injured were returned to Birming ham. Dogs were hurried to the scene, and took trails through the woods direct ly to the union quarters. Eight men were arrested and other arrests are expected. Governor Comer held a hurried con ference with Lieutenant Colonel Hub bard, commanding the militia, and an other company was hurried to Bloe ton. , , . The trouble caused widespread in dignation, and a general demand is being made that more strenuous ac tion be taken looking to the preser vation of order. ENGLAND’S GOOD WISHES.
