I The VIM. G. Nichols farm in Albion
township, consisting of 2SS acres of
tillable land beside its timber has been
leased to Carl Mohs of Postville for
one year with the privilege of five, at
$3.50 an acre, which makes the an
nual rent of the 2S8 acres 1920. The
cash value of the farm is $4,000,
which if in cash would loan upon first
class security at 8 per cent, bringing
in an annual revenue of $1,000. The
price of the farm invested in govern
ment bonds, treasury notes, or in
mortgage loans would be out of reach
of the assessor and the tax gatherer,
which would at least add another
500, on the credit side of the ledger
annually. But with an annual rent of
$3.50 an acre, the tenant to make the
ends meet, must have favorable wealth
er, good crops and better market
than prevails this year. Thus money
is more profitable invested in loans
than in business enterprises such as is
offered by agricultural pursuits.

feet steadily guided the pedals, still he
held the precious burden against his
breast, and on they flew before the
wind. Only when he felt his muscles
quivering under the strain he whis-

Then with new strength he pumped

few revolutions more, and he was in
the midst of his own safety burrows,
with a huge mass of burning weeds
closely pursuing him, which was shat
tered and thrown back by two pitch
forks in the hands of Sarah and Elmer.
Then they all rallied and assailed the
fiery enemy as it came up in roaring
lines, beating it down and giving ex-
ultant cheers at its sullen death.
An hour afterwards, smoky, grim
faced couple with watery eyes and
very dirty hands stood before Miss
Sarah Williams and confessed that they
were engaged.

THOUGH ESHADOWS LIE DARK

Though the shadows lie dark on our path,
love.
Yet, the hill-tops are cleaning with light.
Though the winds sweep around US in wrath,
There is quiet and peace on the height.
Then sing, though the pathway be lone, love;
Aye, sing, though the bleak winds are cold;
Beyond is mansion-our own, love
All cleaning with jasper and gold
Though the flowers have dropped at our feet,
love,
In silent and hopeless decay,
Yet, there they are fadeless and sweet, love-
In the glow OF eternity's day.
Then sing, though the clear sunny light, love,
Of the f1owery spring time be DER;
For there cometh no cankering blight, love,
To the bloom of that beautiful shore.
Though, as exiles afar from our home, love,
We wander mid doubtings and fears;
Yet, beyond, where there gathers no gloom,
love,
The house Of our Father appears.
Loved ones are waiting on high, love-
Already the home-lights appear;
And music of sweetness untold, love,
Oft steals on our listening ear.
Then sing; we're ascending each day, love,
More near to the heights of rest;
Soft breezes are stealing this way love,
With perfumes of paradise blest.
A day or two more and the gloom love
The toll and the strife will be DER;
And forever, mid beauty and bloom, love,
At home we'll repose evermore.

Experience of IA Man With n broken
Leg on "a Louisville TrestIe.

VI "a WIN a.
Leg on a Louisville TrestIe.
From the Louisville Courier-Journal
John Starr, aged 65 years, took six hours
to crawl with broken leg from the tres
tie at the foot of Twenty-fourth street
to High. Starr is a carpenter who lives
with his daughter. Mrs. r. NJ Sanders,
at 2409 West Jefferson street. He left
home one morning and did not return. He
drinks some, and his son-in-law believes
he was drunk when he started to cross the
canal on the trestle The old man said II
was about 10 o'clock at night when he
concluded to spend the night across the
canal and not go home. When he got OPP
posite Twenty-fourth street he missed
his footing in the dark and fell As he
shot through the trestle his head struck
against one of the ties and he landed on
the ground unconscious. How long he
lay there he does not know, but when
he awoke 1t was with the consciousness
of great pain in his leg. He tried to get
up, but sank back exhausted. He tried
to yell, but his voice was weak, and he
was unable to speak above a whisper.
The pain in his leg made cold perspiration
cover his body. He waited for what SEEM
ed an hour in the hope that some one
would pass along and lend his assistance.
The place was as quiet as a grave and
man. He started to work his way from
under the trestle work but every attempt
to move forward made him scream with
pain. Finally he turned on his back and
began to crawl along with his head and
hands dragging his injured leg with him.
This was very slow and painful. once he
remembers to have lost consciousness the
pain was so great. He does not know how
long he lay where he was, but the thought
that he might die there before any assist
ance could reach him nerved him to pass
on. He began again to crawl along on his
back He felt that he was about to faint
again, so he stopped. He struggled with
himself to keep from losing conscious
ness, fearing that he might never awaken
When he felt that he had gained enough
strength to venture on he began his labor
ious and painful task again. After ne
had struggled along between rests and
partial unconsciousness for what seemed
to him a week he began to break down
He rested from his labors awhile, think
ing some one would surely pass along. but
no one appeared. He spied some salt sheds
nearby and made his way toward them
When he reached the sheds the night
Waterman was making his last round
Just as the latter discovered Starr the
latter tainted The Waterman saw the
man was badly hurt and telephoned for
the ambulance. By tho time the ambu-
lance reached the sheds Starr had re-
gained consciousness. lie was taken to
the city hospital, where it was found he
had suffered compound fracture Of the
left leg.
