SEEING THE WIND
It's as Plain as Water over a
Waterfall.

Ever take look at the wind?
Can sec it, you say? Yes, you
can, says the Wilkesbarre, Penn,
Leader. Some day when gale is
blowing and the atmosphere is cold,
go out in your yard, take a nice,
bright haudsaw. If the wind is
blowing from the north hold the
saw with its ends pointing, one to
the east. the other to the west.
Take the saw as if you were going
to cut the air upward and let the
teeth, which are on top, tilt it over
till the Hat part of the saw is on an
angle Of As degrees with the hori-
zon.
Then if you look along the teeth
of the saw you can see the wind
pour over the teeth as plainly as the
water over a waterfall.

Gigantic water-Pip

The biggest water-pipe in the
world-capable, it is said, of hold
ing any average river-is now to
be laid by the Ontario Power com,
pany on the Canadian side of Nj
agara Falls. The gigantic pipe,
which is made ofsteel throughout,
is a mile and quarter in length
and so feet in circumference. The
steel plates from which the big
tube is being made will have the
thickness of one-half inch, and in
putting them together 200 tons of
rivets will be required.

lain and begged him to include in
his scheme some arrangement to
exclude from our shores the dump
ing Of American girls, says Lon
don Truth. The latter compete
with the home market under most
unfair conditions. Their parents,
by means of trusts and such like
pernici0us associations, are able
to give their daughters vast sums
of money, and in this way they are
able to compete unfairly for the
best home customer in the matri-
mOnial market. 1t may be said
that our nation profits owing to
these wealthy girls spending the
money with which they are
freighted in England. The bene-
fit, however, is questionable. Al.
ready there is a vast amount of
vulgar ostentation in what is
called the smart London set, owing
to the import of colonial million
aires, which raises the standard Of
fashionable existence and lowers
and degrades the tone of that so.

CRUELTY TO THE HORSE.

Blinders, Check Reins, carb Bits and
Docking.
The horse, the most useful ofall
animals, is the one iuarked for the
most Of mems i'll treatment, says
the indianapolis News For the
most part housed in in lighted i'll
ventilated and i'll smelling quar-
ters worked to its full capacity,
cared for only to the degree that
selfish interest prompts, the an
imal is delivered oyer as the m
protected object of the unre-
strained passions Of man. The av-
erage maIt fails apparently to un-
derstand that animals have a
nervous system, among them in
marked degree the horse, and
that were he to govern his own
temper he could with a little pa
thence get control of the horses
nervous system, and make out of
it a servant vastly more efficient
than it is under the system in
which he beats and jerks and
drives it to distraction.
A short walk in any city will dis
cover many blind horses. Why?
There are no blind COWS, compara-
lively. And yet the sight of the
one naturally is as good as that of
the other. The difference is sim
ply that the horse from the begin
ming has been abused, i'll housed,
Overworked and worked under
conditions that have driven him
blind. His eyes are shut in by
binders at each side, for which
there is DO use but to satisfy the
caprice or fashion of man. So, his
vision interfered with, and de-
prived of air, the wonder is that
with the other treatment he gets
he is not blind Oftener. Besides
this, in other cases his neck is al
most pulled out of joint by over
head check reins that raise his
face to the air and turn his eye
balls to the glare of the sun un-
protected. Or, on the other hand,
deprived Of check rein, he is bit
ted with aGurb that pulls his jaws
to his breast and fortunes him in
this fashion. And then, according
to the spreading fashion of the
day, he is subjected to that most
cruel of all practices, docking,
which not merely tOrtures in the
practice, but leaves him to the tor
ment of flies for the rest of his life.
1t is the merciful man that is mer-
ciful to his beast, and if it is the
merciful that obtain mercy, we
have, as a people, some way to
come before we will obtain that

SUES FOR $5,O55.
w. J. SizemOre Ask Damages for
Above Amount.

Judge G. B. Bingham has filed
suit 10 Trigg Circuit Court tor Mr..
w. J. Sizemore for $5,055 damages
against the Illinois Central railroad
company, says the Record. Mr..
Sizemore claims that on the morn
ing of December 18th, 1908, while
crossing the /. G. track between
Gracey and Cerulean Spring with a
wagon loaded with household goods
he was struck by a special train
bearing the officials of the Tennes-
see Central railroad: that his wag-
on was destroyed, his goods scat
tered and demolished, and be was
thrown some distance in the air,
from which he received injuries
that came near causing him his life,
and propably injured him for life.
He also claims that the engineer
failed to blow the signal for the
crossing to notify him of the train S
approach. The case will not likely
come up for trial this coming term
of court.

Jumped to Escape Death.

On the afternoon OF June 30 six boys
OF this place, ranging in age from five
TO fourteen years, escaped a horrible
death by jumping off Pennsylvania
railroad bridge, west OF the big cut
below town, as the westbound fast line
shot out OF the cut running at rate OF 80
miles an hour. The six boys, Frank
Degnan, Nathan and Thomas Edelblute,
Fred Mohney, James Mckay and Gerald
Bolton, were going for berries and were
crossing the railroad bridge. They
were too far on the bridge to run back
and could not cross the bridge ahead OF
train and their only escape was to Jump
off, distance Of twenty-five feet. AS
the bridge is on curve at end OF cut
the boys had to act quickly and one OF
them yelled TO his companions to jump.
Frank Degnau, one OF the older boys,
waited to see that all the other boys
jumped, and IL was well that he did, for
Gerald Bolton, the fve-year-old lad,
laid down and grabbed the rail with
both hands and would have been cut TO
pieces, but Degnan picked Gerald up
and dropped him off the bridge and then
jumped himself not second too soon to
escape the iron monster. Some OF the
boys fell among rocks and were badly
bruised and stunned, A couple OF them
were unconscious for few minutes.
Had the boys been far enough on the
bridge TO have jumped into the creek
some OF them would have been drowned.
Andy Denny, the engineer of train,
succeeded in stopping his train on the
bridge, but TOO late to have saved the
boys lives had they not jumped. Some
OF the passengers ran down and CARRIED
the unconscious boys up to railroad
track.
This is another warning OF the danger
OF walking across railroad bridges.
