Poison In BooZE.-Dr. Wiley, CHIEF
Of the agricultural department bureau
of chemistry, says that IS per cent Of
the whisky sold over the bar in this
country Is adulterated.
In a dozen cities the discovery has
been made that whisky is dangerously
adulterated with wood alcohol.
But who Is alarmed by these por-
tentous facts?
Certainly not those who drink the
stuff.
He who will ignore the dangers Of
pure whisky is not going to shy at
little common poison.
He who will risk his own strength
of mind and character and the happi-
ness and hope Of those nearest and
dearest to him will not be scared out
by little physical danger.
The wrongs done the world by adul-
terated whisky may be many. but so
are the wrongs done in the world by
whisky that is pure.
A few graves may be filled by the
one, but by the other are filled the
prisons, poorhouses, hospitals and In
sane asylums for generation after gen.

unborn.-Atlanta Journal.

OLD TIME RAcETRAck SHARP,
How Dave Smith and HE Running
Horses Worked Kansas Sports.

A decrepit old man living on the
outskirts of Salina in a rickety old
wagon and living on the bounty OF
generous citizens recalls to Judge
Dan Wagstaff a time when this old
man was a noted racehorse sharper.
His name Is Dave Smith. Many years
ago he possessed running horse
known as Buckshot, which could beat
anything In Kansas In quarter dash.
His game was to drift into a town
with Buckshot hitched to a tumble
down wagon. Then he would slit
around among the horsemen, and al
ter a drink or two, would gently inti-
mate that he had "hoss" which could
go some. His innocent country way
never failed to impress the sports
with the idea that they had caught
sucker. And it was an impression
which was not removed until Smith
departed a day or two later with all
the loose cash In town.
One time many years ago Smith
poked into Atchison with his ram
shackly outfit. In some manner the
sports got wind Of the fact that the
old mans horse was the famous Buck
shot. They thought they saw way
to do the old man up for all his pos
sessions. inasmuch as he always en-
ployed a local rider to ride his racer.
Their game was to get rider up on
Buckshot who would pull him. They
succeeded only too easily. The old man
accepted the rider, who offered his
services without the slightest hesita-
tion. Furthermore, he bet the Atchi-
son sports to a standstill, putting
up money on Buckshot until no more
was to be had.
The horses were called to the post.
They were to go from a standing
start, or held start" as the fellows
used to call it. The old man ambled
out to the track with Buckshot, rider
up. and took his station ready for the
word "go." And just as the word was
given he jerked a snap loose and the
bit dropped from Buckshot's mouth,
leaving the rider with nothing to pull
on. Then he fetched Buckshot a clip
with a quirt, and the old horse went
down the track like creased streak
of lightning, and loped home an easy
winner.-Salina Republican.

CHAPTER XII.

Twenty minutes later they were IN
the sheriff's buggy, on the way to
Danube. Ratclif had put cheap cigar
between his teeth, but he was not go
ing to light it till they were entering
the town.
"Thar's one disagreeable feature" he
remarked. AT first, my idea was to
hurry up an git it over, SO you wouldn't
have to 60 to Jail at all; but 1t has
Just struck me that this Is Saturday,
an it is sometimes awkward work to
have . trial the last day O. the week.
You see the prosecution will want to
summon Thad Williams, an that will
take time. Then, as tomorrow Is Sun
day, you may have obleeged to wait
over till Monday"
Ronald told him that 1t would make
little difference to him whether he
spent the time in Jail or out.
"You feel that away now," comment
ed the sheriff, "but you will feel diff
ferent when -ou git in thar, at least
that's my, experience with prisoners.
A jail house Is like womans bonnet;
1t has q better look from the outside
than the inside."
Just before driving into the public
square RatcliR struck a match and ap-
piled the fame to his cigar, then he
drew himself up more erectly and
drove on to the Office of Judge Richard
son, the magistrate. A man coming
out told Ratcliff that the judge had
gone out to his farm to spend Sunday.
"You see," said Ratcliff, as he puffed,
and seemed to view himself from the
standpoint Of q group Of citizens who
had gathered on the sidewalk and
whose eyes were asking what had hap
pened. One of the crowd stepped out
to the buggy and asked II Ronald was
under arrest, but he received only q
grin and q shrug as
Ratcliff turned his horse towards the

Joining the courthouse in the center

lailer, short, thickset man, with .
bald spot on his head, was playing
checkers in the yard with the ordinary

his name reluctantly, without looking
up from the board.

called out Ratcliff, jocularly. The
taxpayers say they are tired O payin'

The jailer crowned king and got
up from the grass with a lingering
backward glance at the hand OF his
opponent. "What's wanted?" he
asked as he drew near the buggy.
"Mr. Henderson, you remember Mr..
Fanshaw, Of Honeycut Destrict," re-
minded Ratcliff. "He's the feller that
helped me out last summer with that
lynchin' crowd over our way. Well,

"T'll do the best can," promised the
jailer; "but you know all the cells are
alike"
They followed him into the Jail and
up the stone steps to heavy iron door
at the head Of the stairs. The room
was too large to be called cell. 1t
was light, having four windows, which
were heavily barred, and bed that
was faultlessly clean. AS Ratcliff and
the iailer were leaving, the sheriff asked
Ronald If he could do anything for
him.

nothing; indeed, he could think Of moth

gested Ratcliff.

the prisoner.
When they had left him, Ronald
threw himself on the bed and stared
up at the ceiling. Hart's corpse had
way of coming before him with new
force each time that it mace Its ap-
pearance. 1t approached him now in
solitude oftener and with more tena-
cious reality than ever. The afternoon
died slowly. 1t began to grow colder

against the western sky turned from
yellow to gray. Once re fancied he

SAVING OF RURAL DELIvERY.-Some-
body-President Mckinley, we believe,
in one Of his messages-made the very
moderate calculation that the rural de-
livery system saved each family Of
each route an average Of ten cents
working day in time. This Is $3.50
year. Any Of US familiar with rural
conditions know that the real saving
is very much more than this. Many
of us can recall the old weary process
Of sending for the mail from a farm
house--catching a horse or taking one
from the plow plodding along to the
office, the hour or two Of loafing and
gossip there, the deliberate return.
Certainly the government has never
conferred any greater or more con-
slant blessing on the farmer than when
1t gave him the opportunity to do as
the people in the cities do-walk to
his front gate and open his box, know
ing that his mail is there, delivered
punctually and regularly.-Richmond
