Insurance cannot prevent

that would ensue without It.
It lets you down easy--s1s-

I represent a score of the
oldest and best fire insurance
companies In the land, and
am giving very low rates just
now. The probability Is that
they will not be so much lon
ger. Better take out suhci

As every Company now
charges exactly the same rates

AGED MAN SERIOUSLY HURT
Rev. A. Davis Thrown from
Horse and Thigh Broken.

Rev. A. Davis, an aged and highly
respected citizen of Waxahachie,
met with serious accident yester-
day afternoon about $50 O'Clock on
Marvin street. Mr.. Davis was out
horseback riding and at some point
on Marvin street the animal became
frightened at something and began
kicking and pitching violently. Mr..
Davis displayed some good horse
manship in staying with the animal
until the saddle girth broke when be
was thrown violently TO the ground,
He was rendered unconscious and
his right thigh was broken just be-
low the joint, Parties who witness
ed the accident hurried to the injur-
ed nan's assistance. He was pick
ed up and taken to the home of his
son-in-law, A. Lasswell, with whom
he makes his home, where physi-
clan was summoned to render sur
gical and medical attention.
Mr.. Davis is 76 years old and is a
man OF considerable strength and
vitality in spite of his age ana for
this reason no serious results from
the injury are anticipated. He was
reported this morning as doing as
well as the nature of the injury
would permit.

A Remedy Suggested.

Joe Meharg, the stockman of the
Nash community, was IA the city
yesterday. In speaking Of the great
number of horses and mules being
killed in the county by blind stag
gers Mr.. Meharg said it was his
opinioa :ha: they were being fed too
much corn. He thinks If the farm
ers will feed their stock less corn
and give them more bran and hay
and other rouEhness it will in a
measure put a check this epidemic.
Mr.. Neharg says he, has observed
that when "a big cor crop is made
similar to the one last year an epi-
demic of blind staggers follows. He
says the corn made last year con-
tanned an unusual amount Of
strength aud that horses have been
gorged OH it, Mr. Meharg has had
considerable experience with stock
and the above suggestion from him
might, if acted upon, save the lives
OF many valuable horses and mules
In the county.

A Very Old Dinner.

An antiquary in the city OF Brus-

oldest dinner which has ever been
eaten. 4 description was given by
one Of the guests, Mr.. AmaZiah Dukes
He says: AT the dinner / ate apples
that ripened more than eighteen hun
dred years ago: bread made from
wheat grown before the children Of
Israel passed through the Red sea,
spread with butter which was made
when Elizabeth was Queen of Eng
land; and washed down the repast
with wine which was old when Colnm.
bus was playing barefoot with sts
boys in Genoa.
The apples were from an earthen
jar taken from the ruins of Pompeii.
The wheat was taken from a chamber
In one OF the Pyramids, the butter
from a stone shelf in an cid well IL
Scotland, where for several centuries
ii had lain in an earthen crock n icy
water, and the wine was recovered
from an old vault N the city OF
Corinth. There were six guests az the
table, and each had a mouthful OF
bread and a teaspoonful of wine, out
was permitted TO help himself bountt
fully to the butter. there being several
pounds Of 1t. The apple jar held aDout
two-thirds OF gallon. The fruit was
sweet and as finely favored as y Il

Unexpected Discoveries from Which

1t often happens that an ignorant
man will stumble upon an invention
which clever men have been working
over for years. At one time all tho
gum used In England was made from
gum arabic and cost no end OF money.
1t happened one night that a big
starch factory on the banks OF the
Liffey. near Dublin, took fire and
great puddles of starch and water
were found outside.
Some calico printers who had been
making an evening Of 1t came by. and.
being very tipsy, one of them tum-
bled into the sticky mess. Next morn.
Ing, when he tried to dress, all his
clothes were stuck tight together as
II they mad been dipped in glue, and
tho wretched man was obliged to stay
in bed till his wife had soaked them
in clean water.
The man. from his trade, knew how
valuable this gum was, and taking the
rest of the party into his confidenca
