Huntingburgb, Ind.?-In- the town of i,erdinand;,;tfafs county, many of the >lder generation of Germans wear vooden shoes. Clemens Luecken of Ferdinand is a matter carver of woodn shoes and his tiny shop is'tbe meca for Germans in quest of forest footgear. Dubois county is overwhelmngly German and many of the cusoins of "der vaterland" are observed rtth as much fervor as though Dubois ounty were actually ruled by the Aiser. One of the customs in vogue t Ferdinand is the wearing of woodn shoes and for more than forty ears Clemens Luecken has conducted wooden shoe factory in the little own. Not for one momeiu In all that time as Clemens Luecken .allowed the eather trust to worry him. The soarng price of shoe leather has no terors for Mr. Luecken. As long as Irch and poplar timber can be seitreM "Har Hnlf 7.ar*hnmarher" will ever care a rap whether Uncle Sam orners the leather trust or the leathr truat corners Uncle Sam. Leather i an unknown quantity with Mr. aiecken. He specializes In the manuacture of wooden shoes and the fact hat he has been engaged in the bus!ess for more than forty years Is proof nough that the demand for wooden hoes is pretty steady and that Clemns Luecken delivers the goods. The shop wherein Mr. Luecken has - orked at his trade for so many years ? situated on a hill overlooking the Ittle town of Ferdinand. The build bis 1 y Bp I I Luecken's Wooden Shoe Shop. tig is a low frame structure 12 feet f quare and occupies a site in the corier of the garden-adjoining his home, "he little building is well supplied rith light there being three windows, door and a skylight The floor of the shop is covered ' dth wood chips. Tools such as are j sed by a skilled wood carver bang in rderly fashion about the walls. In one j orner of the room stands a very small tove. His work bench in another cor- ; er consists of a six-foot log some 10 r 12 inches in diameter resting on iur sticks of wood. In the center of lis rudely constructed work bench is groove. One cannot but admire the till of the old German when he first napes a block of wood to conform to le foot. He holds the block of shoe ood on a large oak block and ields a keen edged hatchet with a ?gree of accuracy that Is amazing. rood chips fly in all directions with | ich stroke of the hatchet. Gradually le block of wood assumes the form ' a shoe. The block is then placed in le groove and an auger-like tool is sed in boring out the interior of the j joe. The boring process continues mil the interior is rounded out to J inform to the shape of the foot. After le interior and exterior of the shoe j re smoothed out it is ready for the j earer. The shoes are made according to le length and breadth of the foot as omputed by Inches. The host of parons whom Luecken supplies with ooden tiroes every year includes len, women and children. In price tie shoes range from 45 to 65 cents, hoes made of birch come higher beause they last longer than those made f poplar and other wood. Luecken an turn out several pairs a day. Ill Idltlon to supplying the regular Chanel of trade he sells hundreds of wooda shoes to visitors who buy them as juvenlrB. Luecker says that the sung American has never formed the i ibit of wearing wooden shoes?the 1 sung American prefers tight fitting joes made of leather and the painful srns that go with them. The feet f those who wear wooden shoes are ever deformed by corns, bunions, etc. If Luecken does not have your size t aoe in stock and you are in a hurry e sends you to one of the general tores in Ferdinand, where you can j lake your selection from a large ! tock.

GOLDEN TEXT?"The hand of our "tod is upon all them for good that seek him."?Ezra S:22. TIME?B. C. 433, the seventh year of Artaxerxes. Ezra leaves li&hylon with his company on the 1st day of the 1st month, March; and reaches Jerusalem on the 1st day of the 3th month, July. The convocation was on the !0th day of the 9th month (In Nov.-Dec.). His reforms were made during the win- I tar, Dec. 438. to March. 437. The nearly sixty years between the sixth and seventh chapters of Itzra, of ! which there is almost no direct rec- ! ord. could scarcely be called ' 'the blank annals of well-being." Without tfcfee happy periods of duliuess our lives would be hell, and our hearts eternally bubbling and boiling in a j tuge pot made hot with thorns. But ; these were years of slow progress, of ' lIUUJiCBB, rtlJU UVKICl l, iiAt' a guiuru I wherein the heavenly plants, while 1 iitill growing, were overrun with weeds, and the vines and olive trees, untrimmcd and neglected, bore but jmall and scanty fruit. The temple had been built, but the opposition had been so great that .he walls had not been restored and he rubbish still arose in long-stretch.ng mounds. The visions of glory had laded. They had expected a vast Indus of their brethren, ftom Babylon | and other lands, but had been to a , great extent disappointed. Ezra, no doubt knowing the condi- ; '.ion of things in Jerusalem, had not only prepared his heart to seek the law of the Lord, and to do it, but he planned to go up to Jerusalem and .each in Israel statutes and Judgments. Moved by religious zeal, and also, it would seem, with the statesmanlike view of making Jerusalem once more the real spiritual metropolis of Judaism, Ezra conceived the idea of Infusing new life and new ideals Into :he Judean community by leading a freph band of zealously religious exiles back to Judca on a mission of reform. They started from Babylon on the first day of the first month, which i would be some time in the last of March or the first of April, according to the date of Easter and Passover. It took some lime to reach \hava and get things thoroughly arranged for the Journey, so that it was the twelfth day of the first month, I lbout the time of the Passover, our Easter, before they began their long j narch. And the hand of our God was jpon us, the hand that defends, the r<;nd that gives, the hand of friend- j jfllp. They came to Jerusalem, after a I journey of four months, arriving there 1 he first day of the fifth month, or 1 ibout the middle of July. The distance in a direct line was about 500 miles, but the road followed by Ezra's 1 caravan made a long detour to avoid the desert and could hardly have been less than 900 miles. From Ahava the time w8b 110 days, so that the oara van averaged nine miles a day, omit- | ting Sabbaths, which was as fast as a ! caravan could easily go. with women and children walking, and household "fleets to be carried. Ezra brought $2,000,000 for the re pgir of the temple, and for all that was necessary to put the outward forms of worship in perfect condition. He infused the community with Ills own devoted and consecrated spiritual life and fervor. He brought with him tho Book of the Law and the Prophets, with Its strict morality, and made it known to the people. In contrast with this holy law the conduct of the people in adopting "the abominations" of the heathen appeared in ill its glaring wickedness. Then Ezra entered upon his great reform. Some of the leaders pointed out to Ezra that the people, even the princes and rulers, were intermarrying with the idolaters, and there was danger that the religion of Israel would be destroyed, that all the sins J - * - ? 11? l-l 1- - wnien causeo ine exiie wuuiu uc ic- : peated, arid ill that the exile had done as a discipline would be lost. Ezra first by himself was astounded and stunned by the report, and showed all the signs of deepest sor- ' row and humiliation. Then there was a meeting together with him of "every uno that trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of the transgression of those that had been carried away." They sat in bitter astonishment till the time of evening prayer. Then they bowed themselves before the Lord, and wept and prayed and confessed and entreated. Then followed a public meeting, a great congregation of men and women ind children. There came the great moral reform. There was a proclamation throughout all Judab and Jerusalem. that all should gather them?elves unto Jerusalem, upon pain of laving their property confiscated and themselves excomunicated from the irothcrhood of Israel. In a great rain | they confessed, repented and re'ormed. Those who arc bribing and taking aribes?trying to get rich by graft aid dishonesty, forging, cheating anks, committing all kinds of crime, j ilthough the sinners are rich, and of- ; Icehoiders?are now working in jaila reparated from their wives and chlliren, and are learning honest trades t is sad, indeed, but there is :io >ther way of saving the nation. The suffering involved by Ezra's ouise was not necessarily so great is it would seem, not so great as imirisonment of a family man causes tolay The man could still support the liscarded vife and hildren. and do ill possible for her cemforr.

And he inswered. "I have not troubled Israel; iut thou, and thy father's house, in hat ve have forsaken the commandnents of the Lord.''

There are now four special metnoas : by which consumptive worklngmen In j the T'nited States are being cared for. 1 In such cities as Albany, Elmira and i Binghamton, X. Y., the unions support 1 a separate pavilion or hospital. In ! cities like Hartford, New Britain and ! South Manchester, Conn., the work- 1 tnen contribute towards the mainte- j nance of a fund for the care of consumptives. The employers also contribute to these funds. There are also two national sanatoria for the treat- : ment of tuberculosis owned and oper- | ated by labor unions; one by the In- \ ternational Typographical union, and 1 the other by tiie Printing Pressmen and Assistants' union. In Massachu- I setts, Illinois and elsewhere large cor- | porations and manufacturers have agreed voluntarily to care for all their j consumptive employes for a limited ' length of time. MRS. SELBY AND PRIZE BABY "I have always used Cuticura Soap and no other for my baby and he has never had a sore of any kind. He does not even chafe as most babies do. I feel sure that it is all owing to Cuticura Soap, for he is fine and healthy, and when five months old, won a prize in a baby contest. It makes my heart ache to go into so many homes and see a sweet-faced j baby with the whole top of its head a solid ninss of scurf, caused by poor soap. I always recommend Cuticura, and nine times out of ten the next time I see the mother she says: 'Oh! I am so glad you told me of Cuticura.' " (Signed) Mrs. G. A.
