Output.

THE output is the key to
/ profit. In deciding upon a
price at which to sell. manufac-
turer, no matter what article he
has to offer, considers how many
he is likely to sell. and bases his
charge accordingly 1t Is quite
reasonable, too. II tailor sells
only two suits of clothes each
week. his income must come from
the profit OF these two suits Ii
he can, however, double or treble
his output WITHOUT materially in
creasing his working expenses.
he can naturally afford to make
the profit on each suit much less
Again, this output decides the
buying power. 1t is only neces-
sary to state that there have been

Roy M. Custer, of Near Hoyes, Has a
Narrow Escape From Being
CIawed to Death.
TRAPPED FOR MINK BUT CAUGHT CAT
Came Upon the Animal Unexpectedly and
Foot Race Ensued, Then a Fight In
Which the Handicapped Catamount
Was Worsted.

Roy M. Custer, the fourteen year
old son of Mr. and Mrs. Emanuel Gus
ter, of near Hoyes, this county, had
an experience a few days ago which
he will not soon forget.
The youth had set a number of
steel traps along a fence and adjacent
to private lake on his fathers farm
for the purpose of catching minks
Upon the morning in question he
went to inspect his traps and mount
ing the fence he leaped to the ground
near the spot where he had placed
one of the Instruments and was CON
fronted by an animal ensnared in it,
which the boy declared looked "as
big as a cow" but which proved to
be a catamount. With savage growl
it started toward him. HaYingnothing
with which to defend himself the
youth fled for his life through the
thick underground of laurel toward
fence on the opposite side of the en-
closure, the animal being a close sec
ond in the race but was somewhat
handicapped by the trap and chain at
tached to its leg. For a portion of the
distance the boy was in imminent
danger of being oyertaken, but luck
lily for the pursued the chain became
entangled in the roots of the laurel
which brought the animal to a stop
and effectually put it out of the race.
Seeing this the lad, being stout and
vigorous, seized fences take and sue
ceeded in killing the cat but not,
however, until it had put up stiff
fight for its life.
The boy, after killing his unlocked
for catch, took it home and there
weighed the body which tipped the
scales at twenty pounds. Mr.. r. G.
McCandlish, cashier of the First Ma
tional Bank at Friendsvile, has pur-
chased the pelt of the animal and will
have it mounted.

WORKED MARVELLOUS CURE.


Woman Physician EcIipses the Famous
Prof LOrenz.
BY the marvellous methods of blood
less surgery taught by the famous
Austrian surgeon, a woman osteopath,
of COunellsyilIe, Pa, has cured little
Anna Hazel Felty, daughter of Chris
tian Felty, formerly of Oakland, of
bad case of hip disease.
While not congenital the case was
Of long standing for the newt ethods.
The fact that an operation requiring
SO much strength could be performed
by woman but recently graduated
from a school of OsteOpathy at Frank
lin, KY, adds interest to the state
ment.
When but years old nurse girl
carelessly allowed the child to fall from
a baby carriage. Then, f, arful of
of her employers displeasure she kept
the accident a secret. 1t was not I'M
til , months later that physicians dis
covered that the little sufferer had a
dislocation of the hip. Specialists
were consulted but said they could
do nothing.
AS the child grew the leg was
strengthened somewhat but remained
about two inches shorter, and she
was unable to walk without a cork
soled shoe. Six weeks ago DR.. Mills
asked permission to try her skill on
the little patient, who is now II years
old. Results were good from the start,
and both surgeon and parents were
Overjoyed when, as a result of the
continued massage and manipulation
of the joint, the head of the femur
vas placed i'll its proper socket.
Unlike DR.. Lorenz's methods, the
osteOpathic school does not approve
of complete operations and the use of
bandages. More time is taken to ac-
complsh the same result. The mus
Giles will now stl engthen around the re
duced location and the child can grow
mo womanhood as perfect as if the
accident had not marred the pleas
ures of her early childhood. The
treatment was painless and the gen
eral health of the patient better than
before the operation was begun.
