Urbana, Oct. 31. Judge Phil- brick, In the circuit court of Cham- paign county, entered an order In dren of Samuel Allison of Oakland.

Coles county, was taken from the fa' her and the children awarded to Mr. and Mrs. Curtis of Penfleld. The case is a pathetic one and has attracted much attention in this city. A few months ago the mother of the children voluntarily made an application for admission to the insane asylum at Kankakee, stating that she felt her reason was becoming dethroned.

Before taking this step she gave the care of her two Infant children to Mrs. Curtis, and it is said the latter is providng a good home for them. Judge Phllbrlck in deciding the case said it had not been satisfactorily shown to him that Allison provided a suitable home and for this reason he would allow the children to remain with the guardians selected by the mother. Allison is a barber by occupation. It is reported that Mrs.

Allison's condition is improving under the treatment at 'the asylum. To check a cold quickly, get from your druggist Some little Candy Cold Tablets called Preventics.

The Harvest. The Man May, dear, I hope you may never have to reap as you sew. Har per8 Weekly. MAKING A BALLOON. The Way It Is Patched, Varnished and Powdered.

A balloon consists of patches of cloth about a yard square sewed securely together. This Is not because of any difficulty in making the fabric of a globular shape, for that could easily be done If the pieces were shaped like the skin on the section of an apple. The reason Is that no absolutely reliable fabric has yet been invented, and there Is always 'the possibility of the balloon bursting. Should this happen to one of these' patches, the escape of gas will not be dangerously rapid, as it would be if larger sections were used. When the balloon is made it is carefully varnished, three coats being given, and each being allowed to dry thoroughly before the next Is applied.

If one coat Is left moist the fabric will be attacked by a species of dry rot, which will make It as fragile as the paper this is printed on. In the early days of ballooning many fatal accidents were due to this defect, but now the utmost care is exercised. When a balloon Is packed up for a Journey, powdered chalk is sprinkled between the folds, as otherwise they would stick together and tear. Pear son's Weekly. Hard eh Joseph.

Outside the photographer's establishment in the little country town stood two figures evidently father and son. At last they went In. "Oi want yer to take a picture our Joseph, 'ere, maister," said the fond parent and Joseph was promptly placed In a chair and requested to compose his features for awhile. The photographer's specialty was quick aeveloplng, and soon several negatives lay before the purchaser. The father gazed uneasily at them for a space and then said nervously: "Yon say In the window, maister, as 'ow yer can touch up the pictures to give any effect agreeable to yer customers." "That Is assented the artist readily.

I see the ocean's Up Where steams no modern ship; It murmurs o'er A shingly shore Where palm trees nod and dtp. The blue of eastern skies In sunny silence lies Above a peak Where woods of teak Bide birds of paradise. There strange sweet flowers grow And scented breezes blow And whisper clear Of love so dear The heart half breaks to know. When winds blow from the sea They blow sweet thoughts to me Of lands afar Where is no bar To love's deep harmony. Mere Toys to Him.

Some liberal minded people will admit to you that a slight preliminary training is required before a serious attempt is made to criticise music, but almost anybody with eyes Is willing to embark buoyantly on the job of tear ing a picture to pieces.

This seems to be because the picture will stand with out hitching. Moreover, it will patient ly submit to all the verbal harpoons you find time and strength to throw, and the average friendly critic will And sufficient of both to make even a reasonably good painting look like a cross between a fourteenth century St. Sebastian and a hedgehog. Music, on the contrary, is both pro longed and evanescent, and by the time the composition is finished and the applause has quieted down the critic has forgotten most of the good things he Intended to say to its detri ment. But the picture stays.

Irritating yon by Its mere passive endurance to the point where after awhile you feel that if you don't say something to destroy Its smug self complacency It will go on thinking that It's nil right. So then you bepln to work over It, and you sny: "Yes, I see now. It looked pretty good at first, but that arm is hopelessly bad. and I don't quite like the face." There's nothing to be done If you doD't "quite like the face;" there's no answer to that proposition. It's clincher.

Rembrandt himself would hnve wilted and would probalily have siren up trying to be an "old master." Everybody's. The Word "Ale." What could be more English than the word ale? It carries us back to the banquets of our dead ancestors In Wal-halla, and some of its compounds open up vistas Into that old England which Is fast disappearing, becoming a tale that Is told, obsolete Itself. Such arc alebush, a tavern sign: nle Conner, "an officer appointed In every court leet and sworn to look to the assize and goodness of bread, ale and beer." Ale-cost, the name of a kind of tansy used to flavor the rustic's home brewed, has good old English look. Yet It bears witness to the mongrel nature of the speech of this mongrel nation, cost being from the Greek a savory herb of sjiccles unidentified. Alegar is eager or sour ale, used as vinegar.
