Chased by Indians and a Miraculous Es-
cape.
A corporal and two men, just three Of
us-and we left Camp Sheridan, at the
headwaters of White river, Nebraska, to
open communication with the command
which was expected to be encamped on the
Loup fork of the Platte. seyenty-fve miles
to the southeast.
The red man was making his last fierce
fight, and the agencies had been deserted
by every buck who was classed as war
rior. Seventy-fve miles to the southeast
meant at least seventy miles through a
country where Indians were likely to be
met with at any moment. The chance Of
getting safely through was figured as one in
fifty. That was terrible odds, you'll agree,
but when an officer commands a private
must obey. Little difference it would
make to the general campaign whether our
scalps were present and accounted for"
when winter came, or whether they had
been hooped and dried and were hanging
at the belts of warriors.
Out into the darkness Of a summers
night rides the corporal, and we ride after.
The heavens are overcast, and we are
scarcely clear of the camp before it begins
to rain. It is we'll. A rainstorm will
drive an Indian to shelter quicker than
bullets. The softened earth would leave
palmer trail, but that did not count. 1t is
only the flight of bird which the Indian
cannot follow as unerringly as q blood
hound. Straight on into the night, with q
steady lope which nothing breaks, and we

A few years ago II little girl applied to a
pastor in one of our large cities for admis
sion into his Sunday school. She was told
that the classes were SO full there was no
room for her, and that the church was so
small that no more classes could be organ
lied, Much disappointed, the little girl
began to save pcnnies-her family was
poor-for the purpose of enlarging the
church in order that she and other chill,
dren like her might be accommodated.
She told no one of her ambitious purpose,
however, so that when the pastor of this
church was called to her bedside few
months later, to comfort her in her severe
illness, he saw nothing unusual, only a
frail child of six and a half years.
The little sufferer died, and week later
there were found in her battered red
pocketbook, which had been her savings
bank, tifty-seven pennies, and a scrap Of
paper that told, in childish print, the story
of her ambition and the purpose of her
self denial.
The story of that little red pocketbook
and its contents, and of tn! unfaltering
faith of its little owner, GO abroad Ii
touched the heart of saint and sinner alike
Her inspiration became prophecy, and
men labored and women sang and children
saved to aid in it's fulfilment. These fifty
seven pennies became the nucleus of a fund
that in six years grew to $250,OO0, and to
day this heroine's picture, life size, hangs
conspicuously in the hallway Of college

how APUZZLE WAS SOLVED.

When you want a certain article, you want
the best make of that article, don't you?
But how to determine which make is best
is what puzzles you. isn't it?
And when the puzzle is solved for you,
by authority which cannot be questioned,
you are pleased, aren't you?
And you would like to hear of one puz-
zle that has been solved for the people OF
the whole world, wouldn't you?
Well, we will tell you about that very
puzzle, and its solution.
Paris, France, the best sewing machines of
the world, including those of America, were
in competition. They were passed upon bya
jury colnposed.of the best foreign mechan-
ical experts, two of whom were the leading
sewing machine manufacturers of France.
This jury, after exhaustive examination
and tests, adjudged that the Wheeler &
Wilson machines were the best Of all, and
awarded that company the highest prize Of
fered, the GRAND PRIZE, giving other
companies only gold, silver and bronze
medals.
The French Government. as a further
recognition of superiority, decorated Mr..
Nathaniel Wheeler, president of the COM
pany, with the Cross of the Legion of
Honor, the most priced honor of France.
That is how the puzzle of the best sewing
machine in the world was fully solved by the
most competent authority in the world in
favor Of the No. 8 and No. 12 Wheeler &
Wilson machines.
The No 0, for family use, and the No. 12,
for manufacturing uses. are the best in the
world to-day.
And now, when you want sewing ma
chine, il you do not get the best, it will be
your own fault
