about 1912 in the 1st, is the way the cen

The little son of Mr.. Freeman living
on Mill street came near meeting with a
serious accident Tuesday morning, 10y
climbing upon the dray driven by Will
Miner. The lad caught his foot in the
hind wheel, and all that saved him from
broken bones was the fact that the team
was being driven slowly at the time. The
foot was Considerably bruised. DR.. John
son kindly took the case in hand.
Matt Miles, another Austin boy, is
one Of the IL postal clerks who threw the
post office cards without making an error,
and marked 100. This is an especially
good record for Matt, as he is now on bis
fourth route since entering the service
five years ago, and has, therefore, had to
learn four different routes. We feel
proud that Austin has furnished two
postal clerks who arc perfect in scholar
ship.

We were surprised and pleased to see
so fine portrait from an amateurs brush
as that recently completed by Miss Anna
Leach. The work is the result of a few
weeks study, and is an enlarged copy of

the gentleman, but should certainly say
that for naturalness in drawing Of the
human face, aud also naturalness in color
one seldom meets Il better portrait.
