Courage Are Many.
To come down to more modern
times, the stories of the bravery dis
played by woman In our own Indian
wars are enough to thrill the coolest
blood.
Sometimes a woman left alone tc
look out for her children would be
attacked by band Of Indians. She
would barricade the house and try in
every way to repulse them. and when
all else failed would shoot first her
children and then herself.
In the Civil War ard in the war
with Spain there were hundreds of
women who wanted to go to the front
as nurses: in fact. more volunteered
than could be used. They were will
ing to face any danger If they could
only minister to the sick and suffer
ing.
greater than that Of the battlefield.
where patriotism inspires bravery.
What could be more heroic than the
action OF the nuns in the fre at ST.
Mary's Hospital at Jamaica. l.. l.?
One Of the sisters discovered the
fire in the hospital stable and her
prompt action saved the hospital.
She called up police headquarters
and had the night operator SQUAD the
alarm and send assistance; then she
rang the gong that awakened the doc.
tors.
II this isn't bravery 1t would be
rather Interesting to have bravery

'Turnips taste better to deer than
whisky does to an Indian, and the
animal will run as great risks to get
the vegetable as the red man Wi! to
get the liquor" said Otto Wilke Of
International Falls at ST. Louis.
Il know men who make it their
annual custom to plant turnirs in the
spring in some secluded spot in
game country. just SO they will be
assured Of easy vepison in the fall. or
during the summer months. If they
happen to live in the woods them
selves.
IF turnip patch is located in any
district where there are deer. every
deer within that district will visit 1t
several times q week. the time Of day
they make their visits depending
upon the Iariness Of the animals and
the nearness of settlers.
Even after STOW falls these visits
are continued. As long as any Of the
vegetables are left in the ground.
Until the snow gets too deep you can
see where 1t 10 paved away after
night in search after the succulent
roots.
Through the more sparsely settled
districts they are actually pests to the
homesteader who has a garden. for
nothing but an eight foot -ence will
keep them from eating the growing
things and trampling the ground all
up. like q flock Of sheep. 1t does not
matter how near the vegetables are
to the house. the deer will get into
them Just the same, the only differ
ence being that they will come around
later in the evering. when the dark
ness covers their movements. ."-Du-

Disease with Pleasing Possibilities.
New diseases of one sort or apother
are always cropping up as new condi-
tions give them an excuse. The latest
is autorosis. and 1t is really quite the
thing to have. You get it driving a
motor car. Only the real hero behind
q $l.25 pair Of goggles can have it.
and 1t Is said to begin With burning
sensation in the head and e dimaess
Of vision. This is followed by a dull
ache all over the body ana . constant
fear OF danger. SO great Is the power
of the disease that passing shadow
on the roadside is SAID TO cause the
suffering chauffeur to throw In his
emergency brake and bring his car to
. dead stop. 1t is never rigl.; to hope
that q disease will become an epi.
demic. but there are certainly possibil-
tiles in autorosis.-Springheld Mass,
