Died..

Mr.. A. w. Calendar died at the
home of w. J. Woodland last Friday
morning about S o'clock. He had
been in failing health for several
weeks and came here from Green's
burg about two weeks ago that he
might receive proper treatment and
attention. During his lastillness he
received the very best attention and
had he been at home he could not
have been better cared for. He
seemed to fully realize that his end
was near and gave Mr.. Woodard
instructions what to do after he was
buried.
The funeral services were held by
Rev. Robinson, on Saturday after
noon, from the Baptist church and
interrment was made in Graceland
cemetery. Rev. Robinson preach
a very appropriate sermon after
which many friends followed the re-
mains to the last resting place.
A. w. Calendar was born at La
grange, Oldham county, KY, April
8, 1888, and was 6s years old at the
time of his death. He resided in
Kentucky until about three years
ago when he came to Kansas locat-
ing at Greensburg for short time
then moving to Buckln, Minneola
and Fowler. About two years ago
he came to Meade and purchased
the Baxter blacksmith shop and con-
tinued the business until he sold out
last summer and went back to
Greensburg where he purchased a
shop which he owned at the time of
his death. Mr.. Calendar was one
of our best citizens and had many
friends. His integrity was good
and his word was as good as his
bond. He was one of those typical
Kentuckians and he prided himself
in keeping faith with his fellowmen.
Everyone regretted his death and
their sympathies were extended to
his wife and children who were in
Kentucky and not aware of his ill
ness,

Judge Pennypacker was once asked
by his brother Harry during a session
of court for the loan of 50. Harry
walked to the desk and whispered the

looking down over the top OF his

throughout the room:

Mr.. Pennypacker, thinking the judges

work That the heart Docs'
The work Of the heart is the circu-
iation of the life giving blood through
out the body. With each stroke or
beat of the heart it projects something
like six ounces of blood into the bod
dly conduits, throwing it for distance
of nine feet That it does sixty-nine
times a minute, 4,140 times each hour,
. 09,36O times in a day, 3G,266,400 times
in year and 2,54O,3 ,120 times in
lifetime of seventy years. The blood
lis propelled by the heart nine feet each
beat, POI yards each minute, seven
miles an hour, 169 miles in day, 6l,Sl1
miles in a year and 1880, 100 miles in
the seventy years.
The total force exerted by the heart
every twenty-four hours las been cal
culated to be equal to 124 foot tons
that is, If the whole force expended
by the heart in twenty Jour hours were
gathered into one huge stroke such q
power would lift 124 tons one foot OIL
the ground. This being the daily
force, that exerted in year would be
equal to As, 260 foot tons and that in
lifetime of seventy years 3,1IO,3O3.
Such is the enormous amount Of work
performed by the human heart, which
only weighs eleven ounces and is about
the size of the closed fist.

It has been said of the jackie sailor

pets he must have something to love,
If it is "only cockroach in a 'baccy
box" This statement was founded on
fact, for one of the most remarkable
pets of an English ship was a mon
strous cockroach. He was four inches
long and one inch broad.
One of the sailors had tanned him
and built for him cage with q little
kennel in the corner of it. This in
sect prodigy learned to recognize his
masters voice, and when he heard
him call would hurry out from his
kennel in response.
