DESERVED TO SAVE HIS LIFE.
Unparalleled Fortitude Exhibited by
German Forester.

Unparalleled Fortitude Exhibited by
German Forester.
Fritz Werner was German forest
er. One day stag gored him fright
fully in the abdomen.
AS the Infatuated animal pulled
out his antlers, backed away and pre-
pared for a second charge, the injur-
ed man propped himself on an elbow
and fired just as the stag was closing
in on him. The animal fell dead and
the man tainted away.
When he recovered consciousness
he found that he could not attract at
tention by shouting. He realized that
he was out of the beaten paths and
that unless he dragged himself to a
frequented place he would surely die.
SO he began dragging himself through
the forest in the direction of his en-
ployer's house, three miles away.
He started on his journey at noon;
at o'clock the next morning the oc-
cupants of the house were aroused by.
the explosion of a gun nearby. In
yestigating they found the forester
in dead faint, and nearly dead from
loss of blood, lying on the lawn. By
his side was a smoking gun.
When the injured man got so that
he could speak and tell his story, his
master asked him.
"But why did you drag that heavy
gun all the way?"
Il knew that 1 couldn't shout when
l did reach an inhabitable place" was
the reply, so l brought it along to
attract attention. l didn't think of
it until had crawled for half a mile,
then l crawled back and got it."

New Use for Bees.

Down on Long Island the farmers
have discovered that persons suffering
from rheumatism and sciatica can OBJ
tain relief by allowing honey bees to
sting the affected parts. This is a
very unpleasant process and entirely
unnecessary. The poison of the bee
sting is chiefly formic acid. This acid
is also found in singing nettles. in
ants and some varieties of caterpil-
lars. There is no difficulty in prepar-
ing formic acid, and it would seem
that physicians might find it advan-
tageous to experiment with it as a
remedy for rheumatic troubles-either
in acid form or in formates. Certain
ly some means can be devised of In
Producing it into the circulation less
painful than allowing bees to sting a
rheumatic sufferer by Wholesale.

Dancers of Life.

A beautiful ship sailed out of the bay,
Unconscious of reef or storm;
The sunbeams danced on the laughing
waves
That fondled her graceful form
But the night came down. and the storm
burst forth,
And a hidden rock was there
The fair ship struck on a treacherous
ledge,
And sank, mid cry of despair!
A fair young girl with her innocent
heart
Sailed out on the social sea;
A breath of fattery filed each SAN.
And life was an ecstasy.
A hidden reef, and the passion storm
Lurked cruelty there to ban
She trusted love-and her life was
wrecked
On the traitorous heart of mani
How fair she looks even lying here
With the citys nameless dead.
The golden hair DER her waxen brow
Like an angels pinion spread.
o. mother, who waits for the dear ones
voice
That evermore is dumb
God pity us ALL for we know not how
Or when the end may come!

sau-Worns.

Frequent enquiries are received re-
garding the 'bag-worm" whose peeu-
liar sacs or bags are frequently seen
during The winter attached to various
trees and other objects. If these sacs
are examined, some viii be found to
contain large number of eggs within
mass of yellow fluffy material The
empty cases are the ones that were
occupied by the male during the past
growing season while the larger ones,
containing the mass of eggs, were
the abode of the females. The females
in fact never leave the cases ana after
fertilization by the small male moths.
the eggs are formed as already de-
scribed. From these eggs are Matched.
in the spring, the larvae that begin
feeding on the leaves of trees at once
and soon form about themselves the
bag that is enlarged as the larvae
mature until it becomes too large for
them to carry. Then it is attached to
the limb while the larvae is eating
and is moved to another place when
the food supply is there exhausted.
Every one of these cases should be
removed from the trees during the
winter and burned as otherwise the
larvae are certain to destroy a gooo
number of shade trees in the spring

of the judge, the exhibitors of each
breed of swine should have a voice
in selecting the judge or judges of
their respective breeds. No one man
should push himself like an autocrat
and dictate who should be judge of
the various breeds, and do so over the
protest of the exhibitors. The ex
hibitors or breeders of each breed OF
swine should be consulted in the se-
lection OF their judge. And after
fair expression of opinion of the
breeders of the various breeds has
been secured as to their choice for
judge, the judges for the various
breeds should be selected and their
names published 90 days previous to
the opening of the fair. The swins
show at the Illinois State Fair is the
royal of America, and the State Board
of Agriculture should make ample
provision for the comforts and con-
venience of the exhibitor and the en-
hibit, and to see to it that judges
are selected that are competent to
rightfully place the awards, and will
do so with clean hands.

Great pax for rlnnIsrs.

John Massengale, wealthy 6o-year-
old ranchman of Macon county, Mis-
souri, was married last week to the
widow of his cousin. He and his In
tended drove to a preachers house
In Macon, and were married as they
sat in buggy. Then the happy BRIDE
groom called up his lawyer by tele-
phone and told him to see that for
the remainder of the day no saloon
keeper should accept money from his
customers. TITS my treat" said he,
land you send the bills to my ranch"
Such a jamboree resulted as Macon
had never before seen, which was
probably the bridegroom's idea Of a
fitting celebration.
