NJ. E. Layne was recently called to
the farm of Robert Olsen, four miles
southwest of Beresford, where water
was hard to find. He found that with
in space of 2acrea nine Aft. holes had
been dug, ranging in depth from Is to
64 feet: seven Pinch holes had been put
down, GO to 264 feet, and four ls-inch
holes % to IS feet. Mr.. Layne went to
work in the morning, using machinery

Mr.. G. johnson of Lennox doubtless
thinks that Hurley is quite runaway
town, and that last Monday was his
day. He was trying horse which he
thought of buying, and while watering
the animal in the rear of NJ. E. Layne's
mill she got frightened and ran away,
leaving the cart amid the machinery
near the sidewalk. She then crossed
the street. jumped the walk just west
of d. G. Wards residence and started
east across the railroad track. The
cart was found to be minus shafts and
with a broken whit1letree, The rig
was fixed up and Mr.. Johnson got
aboard and started for home, but the
horse again started to run, and circl-
ing around the bank threw Mr.. j, out
and against coal box, striking his
head in such a way that he remained
for some times. The cart
was pretty well used up this time, but
the horse is ready for another heat. 1t
is very doubtful if Mr.. johnson pur-
chases the "critter.'
stop chewing toothpicks," said a
well-known doctor to the reporter the
other day. eff you do not, you will
have a lumber yard going through
your body The one addressed has
been addicted to the habit of chewing
toothpicks after each meal, but he
meyer thought of the great harm he
was doing himself until he asked the
doctor why he had pains all over his
body. The answer he received was the
above. The fiber of the wood Of
toothpick, said the doctor, has the same
effect as a pin or a needle would have
in going through the muscles. While
a pin enters and leaves tho body as a
whole substance, the particles of a
toothpick will lodge in some
part of the body and cause no end Of
trouble. In some cases they are di-
gested; but very seldom. Then, again,
there is a danger of some of the libers
getting into the windplpe, and in
stances are many where the lungs have
wasted from coughing in-efforts to dis
lodge the tiny fragments which cause
a continual tickling sensation.
