Last Friday as Engineer Fisher,
who was then on Ben McCrum's run
on the Memphis, had reached Il
point about mile beyond Cherokee
with the regular passenger train, he
saw small child playing on the
track short distance ahead. He
took in ME situation at glance, re-
versed and applied the air, bring
ing the train to standstill about
fifteen feet from the child, which
was enjoying itself with innocent
con;entment scraping the gravel,
and when the train porter approach
ed il and lifted il from the track, the
child resented the interference by
kicking and screaming. The moth
err ran from the house about hun
dred yards from the track, when
she noticed that the train had stop
ped and that her child was the OBJ
ject of much interest by the train
men, but her fears were set ut rest
upon finding that no Injury had re-
suited. The passengers and train
men who saw the child before the
engine was stopped were badly
frightened lest the little one would
be horribly mangled. 1t was next
to the last day of Mr.. Fishers run
on this end of the road.-Joplin

OBITUARY.

Mrs. Katharine Potter was born
in the county of Tipperary, Ireland,
on the evening of Dec. "a, 1920.
When a child she came to the
United States and lived in New
York city. There she was married
| to Mr.. Andrew Potter. Until her
marriage she was member of the
Episcopal church. Afterward she
joined the Methodist church of
which her husband was member.
The children that are left to feel
the loss of her constant flow of love
are Mrs. ii. c. Weir, Mrs. W. 7.
Smith, DIR. 1. L. Potter, Mrs. A. W.
Ringland, Mrs. Carrie Potter Hol-
wick, Miss Genevieve Potter and
Mrs. Dolly Potter Cook.
The last home she hallowed was
at Silver City, New Mexico. All
through the years that stern. hard
featured pain held it's weary pris-
oncr, she was sustained and sooth-
ed by loving hands and an unfalt.
ering trust; but the silent pace of
disease no power could bride or
prayers persuade to stay, and her
noble constitution was stolen away.
Her high, holy looking brow con-
scented to death but conquered
agony.
Her pure white life early unfold
ed it's close-shut lily leaves and re-
vealed the calyxes of gold. Her
active life was joy to her friends,
her suffering years, not a Lapland
winter without sun, but a bene-
diction to them. She was lovely to
the last. She possessed to re-
markable degree that sweet beauty
of spirit, that personal magnetism
that seemed to draw all to her.
Years and pain did not steal the
fire from the mind. did not dim the
clear sight of the eye, did not les.
sen the music of sound, but up to
the last days her friends had the
pleasure and satisfaction of her
natural wit, her ready conversation
and her wise counsel. Like as the
finer's fire upon gold so the "finer's
FIRE" of her intense bodily pains
seemed daily to add more deli
cate and ethereal quality to her
sweet and gentle soul until indeed.
refined gold had been gilded, a per-
fume had been thrown upon the
violet. Not only was il true of her
that "to know her and to love her
was a liberal education" but to
come under the sweet influence of
her beautiful Christian character
was to have the harsher parts of
ones nature softened and to have
that liberal education" Christian
lied. The touch of her hands was
like the fall of velvet snow flakes,
like the touch of down, and gentle
as the falling of dusk at night.
Just as the Heavenly gates swung
wide aud her beautiful spirit
caught the first glimpse of the
glory that awaited it, a bright rain
bow surrounded her head for more
than minute, as though her love
had sent back a shining letter-a
bow of promise-to the crushed
hearts at her bed side, and the al
most idolized mother passed be-
yond the gates into the eternal sun
shine of the Redeemer.
She was laid to rest by the side of
her husband, in Forest Home Gem
etery at Mount Pleasant, Iowa. -

There is one medicine which
every family should be provided
with. We refer to Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. When il is kept at
hand the severe burn of pain or
scaid may be promptly relieved and
the sore healed i'll much less time
than when medicine has to be sent
for. A sprain may be promptly
treated before inflammation sets in,
which insures a cure in about one
third the time otherwise required.
Cuts and bruises should receive
immediate attention. before the
parts become swollen, and when
Chamberlain Pain Balm is applied
Il will heal them without matter
being formed and without leaving
a scar. A sore throat may be cured
in one night. A piece of flannel
dampened with this lininent and
bound on over the seat of pain will
cure lame back or pain in the side
or chest in twenty-four hours. II
is the most valuable, however, for
rheumatism. Persons afflicted with
this disease will be delighted with
the prompt relief from pain which 1t
affords, and ii can be depended on
to effect a complete cure. For sale

THE REAL THING.
Was Not Wanted When They Could
 Get Wind

'I see, remarked the wide-awake farmer, "that wheat has gone up to 70 cents in Chicago, and there's a report that it will keep goin' till it gets to dollar. Now, I'd like to contract to sell my crop for 10 cents. Seventy cents will do me. I'd rather have sure thing while its going than. to take any chances on doin' better by waitin'"
 But replied the commission merchant .I can't agree to contract for your wheat at TO cents. "
 "Why not2 It's goin' up to a dol lar, an you'll make 30 cents a bushel. Aint that enough2'
 "Oh yes; you see that 70 cents is only speculative price. It ain't what they pay for real wheat"
 Don't pay that for real wheat2 What in thunder do they pay it fer then?n
 "Why, for options.
 "Well, what the blazes is options7"
 "Why, they're promises to get wheat and sell it for such and such a price"
 Well, then, they got to get the wheat, ain't they?"
 sNo: they sell the promises again, according as the market rises and falls.
 ''An' they don't buy and sell any real wheat at all?''
 Not much
 Just buy an sell wind at 70 cents a bushel?p
 That's about it. 7
 "Thunder and Mars, wish I'd knowed that last fall, l wouldn't a-sowed any wheat. Id tied my grain bags to the back O my fannin' mill and kept the boy turnin' all winter till I'd filed all the bags could get hold of. But it ain't too late yet.
