1920, in company with a brother, be
came &c that part OF Illinois now occn-
pied by Jacksonville, Morgan county,
and in the same month himself and
brother walked from Jacksonville to
Quincy, a distance OF IS miles, In less
than two days.
Mr.. Rose walked from Quincy 10
Jacksonville in the winter OF the famous
deep snow" 1881, in about two days,
but says it was very hazardous under
taking. Mr.. Rose was employed while
in Quincy by John Wood, who was to be
the first Governor OF Illinois. Mr.. Wood
was then pioneer farmer, and Rose
cut wood for him for 80 cents day.
lie says that he has often seen Mr..
Wood driving 4 yoke OF oxen. Mr.. Rose
took up land that is now the heart OF
Quincy, and In disposing OF II thinks
that ne never sold twelve feet that now
include portion OF main thorough
fare. But his claim has long been cut
lawed. as believed.
Mr.. Rose sold h ney to the Sac and
Fox chief. Ke0kuk, near whore tho city
OF Keokuk, Iowa, now Is. This was In
the same year OF 1929, when Rose and
other men went hunting In boats from
Quincy up the Mississippi and Des
Moines rivers.
A few miserable log huts then marked
the spot now occupied by the city OF
Quincy, and Keokuk was not yet known
as town, but there were few log huts
in the vicinity. Ia June, 1882, Mr.. Rose
Joined a company at Jacksonville, ILL.,,
and went to the Black Hawk war, serv-
Ing throughout that campaign OF -
days. He has just applied for pension.
Mr.. Rose subsequently saw Black Hawk
at Jefferson barracks, New Orleans, and
shook hands with him.
In 1S49 Mr.. Rose went to California
in company with number OF friends
from Jacksonville and remained in the
gold fields Of that State and in Arizona
for nearly two years. is believed that
Mr.. Rose made some lucky finds, for he
is reputed to be wealthy, although his
mode Of life and dress does not indicate IT,.
He returned TO Illinois in about 1852, and

BACKACHE.
THE VERY BEST WAY TO REST AND TO
STRENGTHEN IT.
Dr. Kate Oampbsll Hurd, Of Bryn Aawr School,
Gives Excallsnt Advice 10 Her Sis:srs-For-
tfy Yourself to Bear Your Daily Toll.

In the first place human is back not
what promising youth once described
tia series of apertures joined above
and below" II consists Of veritable an
imal tissues, of bones fastened together
by ligaments and covered with muscles,
fat and skin. CHASTITY creatures we are
without our muscles; limp and useless
without our bones.
The back has twenty-six separate
bones, so strung together that they have
very little individual movement; but
what little they have ought to be care
fully preserved, il we would be capable,
graceful and easy.
Children have nine more separate
bones; these become jointed into two,
to form the solid back wall OF the pelvis
that bony basin which holds our deli
cate abdominal organs.
GRACE DEPENDS ON A FLEXIBLE BACK.
If then the grown children have
twenty-six bones which can move, why
have we not children's flexibiIlty? Why
are Elsie Venner's snake like motions
so rare? Grace is a sure sign Of perfect
seIf-control and strength. Jerkiness
and stiff angular movements besides be-
ing positive injuries are sign Of weak
ness.

"Who made bet?"
"Simpson did-that nobody could tell

Mr.. Jones. THE boys all guessed"
