ice, ignorant OF danger. They beckoned
him wildly, but he was now panic
struck, and would not move. The shores
opposite him were rocky and steep, and
spiked with drift wood. The men stood
at the only spot where he could reach
land. But none offered to go to him in
the face of almost certain death.
AS they waited, there came a sudden
pause, a moment when the wind rested,
and the Oswegatchie doomed less
threateningly against it's barriers. 1t
was the moment to rescue him, and
the men faced each other. Then they
shrunk back with pale faces. Why
throw away their lives?
A moment later the wind swept
with a'grim roar along the path which
it had moved through the forest 40
years before. The great Windfall was
like tunnel opening on the river,
where already the log jam creaked
and swayed. Jim might live to be
swept into that whirlpool with its
craunching timbers. Sickened and
trembling, they awaited the dreadful
event; these men who braved dangers
daily were cravens now. There was
one--one only-one more a man in such
storm; but he was mile away in the
upper camp.
They thought of Jerry with com
mon impulse.
Hell be wild. He'll say we was a
lot Of" .".
$50 after jerry"
The speakers paused, for along the
footpath Jerry was coming rapidly to-
ward them. The great muscles of his
arms and chest knotted beneath his red
shirt as he breasted the wind. His sup
pie stride brought him quickly to the
bank. There was CLEAN in his wild
eyes, and he laughed aloud in the pride
Of mastering the gale. The angry river
was as dear as the currents of his own
reused blood, and he longed to test the
great strength of his splendid body or
find a problem for his crowding
thoughts. Life and spirit tingled with
in him.
Suddenly his glance fell upon the ex-
cited faces of the men; and then he
saw little Jim. He stood among them,
speaking quietly, but with stern con-
tempt.
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1897-04-22

"Waitin' for simple Jerry?" he said.
"You was"-he hesitated and did not
say ''afeared." You was common
sensed not to risk it. Give me your
pole, Pierre" There seemed to be
something in his shining face which
separated him from them. George Ham
mond felt it, and began awkwardly: at
amt in mans power to save the kid.
Ye don't sense it, Jerry. We can't let
we go-tomorry yen see" George re-
treated, Jerry confronting him, calm
and white.
81 am my own man." he replied.
"Give me the pole" With the steel
pointed driver in his hand he waited
an instant, summoning all his powers
Of mind and body. He looked smiling
ly at his silenced companions, easily
master of himself and them. Running
lightly forward, he drove the pole into
fallen trunk and vaulted far out on
the ice. The men on the bank watched
breathlessly.
Hell do it''-"Look at that" "The
wind"-"He can't move! He's hurt!
He can't novel"
But he was not hurt. A new sound,
deep, ominous roar, had made him
pause. He understood it well. The
jam was breaking, and in few hundred
seconds the wreck would be upon him.
He remembered how fearful the tu-
multi was, and how Jake Leary had
lost his footing the previous spring
when the logs went out. When Jake's
foot slipped he was a doomed man;
there was yet time for Jerry to turn
and run for life. But the wind swept
down and buffeted him, and it's rage
entered his heart. ...
The huge mass of timber and ice
quaked and groaned and the noise of
the surging water was louder. Jerry
glanced again at the pltiful figure on
the rock, and sprang toward it, run
ming as the watchers had never seen a
man run Lefore. He shouted to Jim to
stand ready; and Jim, though he could
not hear, understood. With his friend
near he began to recover from his
numbing terror. AS the jam moved
with it's first long, grinding swell, Jerry
reached him.
"Come on! That's the way. Here We
be, Did fellow Don't let go. Ef you do
-ef yon do"
| Now taeie was sharp, splitting, tear
ing sount above the dull roar, which
told Jerry that the jam was breaking

HAPPY AS THE DAY is LONG

life,
In a garden sweet and wild,
Knowing naught of sorrow - knowing
naught of strife n~u.

Sporting with the sunbeams, romping with
the breeze,
Dancing to the redbird's song,
Laughing at the blossoms falling from
the trees ..f #f..... #t
Happy as the day was longI
This has been my motto. through the fleet
ing years:
''Neyer mind the shades of night,
They but show there's sunshine-Never
mind the tears.
They are only dew-drops bright"
mid the blooming flowers Of the summer
day,
This is still my care-free song: a.n
"Earth is but garden, I'm child at
Happy as the day is long!"
In the royal garden of the Prince of Light,
Flowers blossom through the years;
Yet each shifting shadow hints of earthly
night
Ev'ry dew-drop hints of tears.
There, throughout the endless, golden sum

This shall be my heartfelt song:

THOSE GOOD OLD TIMES.
when There Was Pleasure and Profit
i'm Stock BuyinC.

I'm Stock Buying.
"Just after the war Michigan was o
great state for stock" said a stock deal
er of Chicago. Il began business life
on a Michigan deal which was the foun-
dation of what the newspapers term
with a twinkling glance-"my princely
fortune. This method of handling
stock was SO different from that which
prevails to-day, with our people con-
trolling the price of the world and our
'say-so' more autocratic than that of a
car, it may be interesting to speak of
an enterprise which was possible once
and impossible now.
1.-TWO of us entered Michigan, coming
as far as Ann Arbor. We purchased
5000 sheep and with another man and a
dog started to drive them to Iowa.
Different from methods of to-day, isn't
it! We paid $1.25 apiece for the sheep.
We had wagon and in the back of it a
barrel of cider. Well, we were just four
months on that trip, but it was good,
healthy exercise, and 1 believe we en-
joyed every moment. Of course there
were anxieties. For example, when we
struck Illinois some of the roads weren't
properly fenced and the sheep would
scatter out oil over the country. Then
came lively work, but, fortunately, the
dog was as good as four men.
Il often think of the trip and COM
pare in with the present. Now we would
bring that many sheep to Chicago in as
many days and less as it formerly took
months. Now, instead of personal so
licitation among the farmers, tele-
gram serves. Instead of driving the
sheep and having that healthy outdoor
exercise on horseback, the cattle come
in cars and are here shortly after being
ordered. Instead of saying to the farm
ers and others: How much will you
give for these sheep?' we say to the
great United States: You will give 50
much to-day for sheep and no one can
or will contradict us, and our prices are
as fixed as the Rock of Gibraltar. But
never have earned 81 900 with so much
satisfaction to myself as earned from
that first trip. 1t was the foundation
of a modest fortune"-with a laugh
sand a good, honest foundation it was"

1T AGREED WITH HIM.

While Speaking.
Mr.. C. w. Radcliffe Cooke, member
of the British parliament, tells of an eX-
perience that was more amusing in the
telling than in the experiencing. He
was to speak at an evening meeting in
country town, and was first to dine
with two elderly ladies of the place. Not
until he was dressed for dinner did he
discover that his servant had neglected
to pack his waistcoat.
There was no gentleman in the house
hold of whom he could borrow, but the
butler, a stout man, had spare waist
coat, which, though not match for tho
rest of the clothing, was near enough
to pass muster. But alas! the waist
coat was a mile too big.
He found sympathetic housemaid
who took up large pleat at the back Of
the waistcoat, and fastened it securely
with pins. Dinner over, the party drove
to the meeting, where the parliamenta
rs candidate was to make the principal
speech. The candidate had been speak
ing ten minutes, and had warmed to his
work, when suddenly he felt pin give
| way, and then another and another.
| Slowly the borrowed garment eX-
banded, until its wearer appeared in all
the capacious bulk of the true owner.
/ Luckily the main body of the audience
did not perceive the change, but dis
tressing litter was heard among the
ladies in front. The best comment came
from gentleman who greeted the
speaker after the meeting.

| from top to bottom. He leaped faster,

from top to bottom. He leaped faster,
his face fiercer and very white. Jim
could feel the iron frame gather itself
convulsively. Only a few hundred feet
now, and they would be safe. All!
That was nobly done. The men cheered
wildly. Jerry ran like deer before the
dogs, but the water pursued even more
swiftly. There was a fearful crash and
a cry from Jim. He saw black wall of
water and jagged logs hidden in foam
rolling down upon them. The ice be-
meath Jerry's feet split to right and
! left; it was moving, and he stumbled
twice. But with three jumps he could
reach the shore. One brave leap, an
other, and the ice cleared. Now wide
| lane of water swirled between him and
safety. George and the doctor were
standing waist deep in the stream to
help him, and he gathered his strength
for that last leap. The gap widened and
he, saw it could not be done with Jim
as a handicap. He must toss the boy
over first. Jerry's foothold was now
only a pitching block of ice, caught on
a temporary obstruction. AS they ball
anced, Jim chung to his friends neck,
and the big fellow smiled at him with
his old, sweet kindliness, though to-day
his eyes were brilliant and his face was
strong.
"All right, old man." he said. LET
go and Doc'll catch we. Don't be scarf"
The wind, water and logs screamed
| and crashed all about them. 4.
"Now!" cried Jerry, and threw Jim
| straight into DIR. Mason's arms. They
saw him stagger in the attempt to re-
cover his footing. Again and again he
| clinched his hands and crouched. But
he could not jump. The ice, oscillating
from his motion as he threw Jim,
sagged and careened beneath him, until
the steady feet failed and he fell face
downward. The men groaned aloud; "a
few turned away, and others ran into
the water to help him. He had been
swept beyond human aid, however,
and they could only watch him die.
They saw him whirled into the water,
as the block of ice Broke into thou
sand fragments; once he faced them
and waved his hand. In his face was
the light they had seen as he strobe
along the path ten minutes earlier.

His arm sank, and he was carried into
a clear place. All about, ice and logs
plunged and reared through the foam,
but some within of wind or current held
them from the drowning man. The

The Third regimnet of infantry in the
regular army of the United States is our
oldest military organization. 1t began
its history as the First regiment, estab-
lished in June, 1854. 1t was with "Mad
Anthony" Wayne in his Indian cam
paigns. 1t was also prominent in the
war of 1912, and spent decade of its
existence in the great lake region. Then
it went to Florida during the Seminole
war, and had its place at Pala Alto, Re
SAGA de la Palma, Monterey, Cherebusco
and Vera Cruz in the Mexican war. The
Third also fought Navajoes and Apaches
for upward of 20 years, and during the
civil war took part in 81 battles and
sieges, losing in killed and wounded and
missing 267 men. The fighting regi-
ment paid Pennsylvania a visit during
