covery. The wound was never probed,
and no effort has been made to locate
the bullet. After he was able to walk
about we noticed that he was a trifie
irrational-not mad you know-but
weakminded. A considerable portion
Of his brain must without doubt be EN-

is certainly the hardest thing on earth
to kill."-New York News.

Hawn:nr IA, = THeater.

Have you ever observed ut a theater
or concert that the people who are
most deeply interested appear between
the acts to be quite weary of the whole
thing, yawning half a dozen times in
succession? The reason Of this is a
physiological one. When your atten-
ton is much absorbed in anything ex-
citing or touching. you breathe in q
very shallow ann and take into
your lungs only half enough air. Con-
seQuently. when your attention Is re-
Taxed, you have to make up the de-
ticiency. This you do by yawning.
which. after all, is only breathing q
very deep breath.
II you watch a man at a play and
observe that he is greatly moved by
some incident, you may feel sure that
when the scene ends he will sigh, and
Il moment or two later yawn repeated
ly. OF course the yawning, so far
from being a sign Of WEAKNESS, is a
proof Of the liveliest appreciation.

Fourth Assistant Postmaster General

WASHINGTON. Nov. 11.-Fourth AS.
aistant Postmaster General John D.
Bristow, in his annual report announces
that during the past fiscal year 14,604
postmasters were appointed, Is, 1928 be-
ing fourth class postmasters and the re.
mainder presidential. Concerning the
policy of removals. the report says:
There were 1885 postoffices estab-
Iished and 1905 discontinued. At the
close of the year the total number OF
postofices in the country was an even
$1,000. The department has discontin-
ued a number Of private postofices.
which it has been advised were conduct
ed for the sole benefit of some private
institution. not only depriving govern
ment of the legitimate revenues, but
giving undue advantage over competing
firms in postal facilities. Extension Of
rural delivery necessitated discontinue
ing 80 postofices, applications to re-
store a number of which are now pend.
ing.
About 1000 more postofices were in
spected than in any previous year.
Registered mail lost averaged l piece in
every 81, 900 handled. There were 1879
postal arrests during the year, including
119 postmasters, 81 assistant postmas-
tiers, IL postofice clerks. p railway pos
tai clerks, 81 letter carriers, and 361
postofice burglars. OF all these $50
were convicted and 629 cases are still
pending in the courts.

Great Interest in the Matter shown By
the Nations Affected.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 1.-The diplo-
matte representatives Of every nation
directly interested in the Chinese ques-
ton called at the state department dur
ing the day. It was noticeable that the
call Of the Russian ambassado or, Count
Cassini, and the French charge. NJ.
Thiebatt. on Secretary Hay lasted
longer than usual, and WI Tung, Chi.
nese minister, extended his call. The
interest Of the Chinese government in
what is going on between the United
States and the European powers is in
tense. No answer has been returned by
France to our inquiry as to q formal
assurance Of the retention Of trade
privileges. 1t is scarcely expected that
the French stipulation will apply to
TonQuin and the sections of China that
have been under French influence for q
long time past, but simply to any ex
tension of French holdings.

"Bill air mighty bad today. Doc;''
Jim responded. His whole nervous
system seem to be in a perfect STRAIT

TOLEDO, O., Nov. 11.-Michigan Gen.
trail train No. 80. from Toledo to De-
troit, was ditched by the spreading of
the rails between Alexis and Vienna.
Mich. Three persons were fatally in
jured and twenty-five more or less seri-
ously hurt.
The accident was the result of a de.
liberate piece of work by unknown
train wreckers and happened at a point
just beyond a short trestle. Two
freight trains had passed over the road
in safety a short time before. Where
the rails were spread it was found that
the bolts that held the fish plates had
been unscrewed. The nuts were lying
on the ties and the threads of the bolts
were not marred in n way. A couple
of wrenches such as section hands use
were found lying beside the track, indi.
eating how the rails had been loosened.
The early reports of the wreck were
alarming and the railroad company
summoned every available physician
from Toledo and elsewhere.

A Valuable Reference work.


The Year Book and Almanac issued
by the Globe company, of St. Paul. is
the best work of the kind which has come
to our notice. Complete in every par
ticular, it combines history and facts,
statistics and general information, pro-
perly classified and indexed in manner
which permits Of instant reference. The
statistics are most complete and admira-
bly, arranged for intelligent understand
ing. Sixty pages of the 500 which this
wonderful book contains are devoted to
Minnesota, and tho political information
10 the most comprehensive and valuable
ever published in the state. We bespeak
for this work the consideration of every
intelligent person IN the state, and we
can say without hesitancy that it is
valuable alike to merchant, farmer, me-
chanic, sportsman or politician.
The price of the book is Is cents,
mailed anywhere, and considering the
amount of information itcontains, it is
worth fully three times the amount.
