A.eRlNcIW HOME THE COWS.

1t amt no fun a-hoeing corn
The sun it's b'ilin' hot,
And pa he keeps a feller just
A-goin' at n trot.
You bet I'm glad to see the sun
A-shinin' through the boughs,
Cos then it's time for me to be
A-bringin' home the COWS.
Sometimes finish out my row,
But mostly, Uncle Bill
He says, "Just drop your hoe, my son,

I'll take your row on out from here,
You whistle for old Towse
And 30 and have littlef fun
A-brinin' home the cows"
And when the cows is 'cross the crick

And drive 'em in the swimin' hole
And then [ ketoh old Boss
Right by her tail and hang on tight
Geel how the old girl plow5
Right through the water-lots OF funi

Then when get up to the barn
Pa he picks up stick
And says, young man, I've told you 'nough
To keep out of the crcki"
And then say, "Why, pa, they went
Across the crick to browse.
And jest had to swim across
A-bringin' home the cows"
1t amt no fun in winter time
You git ketched in the dark
And hear the big owls hootiu' and
Them big red foxes bark;
rhe SHOWS a-fallin' and the winds
A-howlin' through the boughs-
It's lots Of fun in summer though

A Strange Spring.

Perhaps the most extraordinary
spring in the world is that which
gushes up from the trunk of an oak
tree at Ouchy, Switzerland. The tree
is an old one and of immense size,
and it is mystery just how the water
ever forced It's way up through the
trunk from hole through which the
little stream of clear, cool water,
babbles out as from faucet. The

Original measures have been taken
in Charleston, S c., to protect fire
men from the danger of contact with
live elechic-wire4 By the terms of
an ordinance on the subject each com
pany having the right to string elec-
trio wires must connect its station
with the fre-alam system, and on the
occasion of each fire alarm must send
an emergency wagon and one or more
competent men, with necessary ap-
paratus and tools, to the locality Of
the fire, where they must act under
the direction OF the officers of the fire
department. In addition, a special
signal has been arranged, in obedi-
ence to which the electric companies
must turn off the elertlic-curren in
the district Of the fire. Heavy pen
alties are provided for neglect to com
ply with the ordinance, and they are

The craze for foulards has by no
means abated. In fact, as the season
advances so are more patterns sprung
upon the market. They are all of the
very softest, satiny order, very differ
ent from the hard combination of silk
and surah of yore. The most popular
colors are mixture of blues and
white, but pink and black, and even
mauves, have been IN great demand.

Her family evidently has had the bene-

wholly unconscious of the feeling of
modesty as applied to dress SO COM

Examples of old-rashionod Dentistry.

Examples OF Olu-taShioneu DenilStry.
Dentistry, like other usefel arts, has
progressed with the times. There was
a time when aching teeth were be-
lieyed to be inhabited by devils in
durance vile, and all sorts of charms
were used to drive out the trouble
some demons. Even to this day those
who suffer the tortures of toothache
wonder if the old theory is not cor
rect. A certain Thomas Lupton in
1927 gave the following directions for
tooth extracting:
"To draw out a tooth, fill an
earthen pot with emets or ants and
their eggs, and set the same pot in
hot embers so long until all be burned
into ashes; and when any doth axe,
which you would draw forth without
pain, then take OF the same powder,
and touch the tooth Herewith, and it
will fall out"
1t is told that DIR. Tushmake, of
Boston, invented an instrument for
pulling teeth that lost him all his
friends. 1t was "a combination of the
lever, pulley, wheel and axle, inclin01
plane, wedge and screw. A child of
three years could, by a single turn of
the screw, raise stone weighing
twenty-three TONS" says John
Phoenix. That was in the days when
men wore cumbersome metal plates
supporting false teeth in their mouths.
General George Washington was noted
for a gold toothplate of this sort,
which was rather large and puffed out
his lips and cheeks noticeably. Chi,

Simplicity of Tagal Women.

The natives of the Philippine
1slands-that is the pure bred natives
or aborigines-are called Tagals. They
are of the Malay race and are about as
wild and unsophisticated as any of tho
savage peoples of the world.
They are not an ill-favored race, and
some of the women are very pretty.

that the world is rich in having millions

The butterfly is becoming the rage

Don't do it, January" said half
dozen of his friends, but the leader of
the gang was on his mettle now.
81 dassn't, ehP" he chuckled, and
then with one leap he was in deep
water and going with the side-stroke
like youg seal in the direction of the
excursion boat. All this had taken
but second, and the next moment
the half-hearted crowd on the beach
saw Pedro dart by them and go head
first into the water after his friend and
master, for the dog had scented the
danger.
January swan with all his strength,
and pretty soon he made out on the
t0p of the water little bundle OF
| clothes bobbing around The boy
knew then that the child had, by some
miracle, taken kindly to the water and
escaped so far with its little lungs
empty. Two or three strokes brought
him to its side, and he grabbed it with
one hand and turned over on his back
and began to float. He placed the lit
tie one on his breast, and looking into
its pretty blue eyes began to pet it
with the few homely words his untu-
tored soul suggested to him. A moment
later something cold touched the side
of his face, and turning his head he
saw his dog.
"Hello, Pedro, " he chuckled; "look
at the kid. Amt it pretty?"
Pedro snorted and then swan around,
ready to render any assistance that
might be needed. Then the boy heard
the dipping of oars, and he knew that
the steamer had lowered a small boat,
so he held on to the baby firmly, aad
called out to the men in the boat with
all his might. A few minutes later
the small boat came alongside of him,
and he and the child were hauled into
| it. ~'.-~dTI .'r,-N' 49,.
January reached the deck of the
steamboat, and woman threw herself
upon him and began to cry. Another
woman, evidently the child's mother,
had the little baby in her arms, hug
ging it to her heart to warm it lit
tie. Men focked about January, and
one of them handed him dollar bill.
Thanks" said January, and he
thrust the dollar bill underneath his
trunks.
"My brave lad" began another
man. January scented speech.
"What you giving us?" he snorted,
and then he went over and patted the
baby's wet cheek. The little one
looked up at him and smiled from ear
to ear.
ego long" cried January, and be.
fore any one could stop him, he quickly
mounted the railing and plunged into
the river. When he came to the sur
face again he was quite a distance
from the steamboat, and Pedro was
there waiting for him.
Come on, old Pedro" cried
January, and so they swan back to
the beach.
"Well," said January, as he pro-
duced the dollar bill and showed it to
the admiring gang, "I dassn't, didn't
T."
Through the fog came three shrill
whistles from the steamboat. 1t was
saluting January, and the leader of
the gang and all the rest of the gang
gave three cheers in answer. Then
January and his friends finished their
swim, ard that night they spent
January's riches at the outdoor circus.

The old Wayne township survey
was revived at the last term OF court
and an order made by Judge Andrews
which does not seem tn have been very
clearly understood by our people.
w hen Fonda completed his survey
and made his report to the court the
iudgsr attention was called to the fact
that Fonda had disregarded a certain
finding by Vandivert, which was that
certain corners; the sw. cor OF sec. 1O,
the sw. cor. of sec. l. and all four
corners of sec. Ia were original gov
eminent corners. Judge Andrews
sustained the objection to Fonda's
survey and ordered that he correct
the same so as to conform to the find
ings of Vandivert as expressed in the
original journal entry when tho case
was first tried before him. Fonda left
for California without complying with
teh order of the court, so to get the
matter closed up Judge Andrews ord
cred the county surveyor to go out
and make the necessary corrections so
that Fonda:s survey should conform
to Vandiverts order. This will only
disturb the survey slightly. except on
sec. IA there the old government cor
ners are the ones recognized, so as a
! matter of fact no serious disturbance
of the lines will take place. The ex-
uense will amount to but very little.
All parties will be pleased when MIR.

and the matter shall be finally dispos-
