An Asheville, North Carolina, dis
patch says that for saving the lives OF
a score OF passengers and preventing
wreck by tagging train with her red
petticoat. Mamie Gibson. eleven years
old, bare-footed mountain girl. has
received reward from the Southern
railway, and 1t is Just what Mamie had
said that she wanted most, an educa-
ton.
She has received a letter from the
company. agreeing to give her col
lege education and to see that she Ii
well provided for.
Mamie lives in little mountain HIT
with her father and mother in the
Black mountains. A big slide occurred
on the mountain while she was at home
alone. She ran down the railroad track,
waving her red pet:icoat. A heavy
train was stopped by her ten feet from
where the mountain had caved in. Be-
low was an abyss several thousand
feet deep.

Educating Children. Memory.

AS children part OF the Jap's educa-
ton is learning to notice. A tray
with n dozen things on 1t is given to
the child for few minutes, when 1t is
taken away from him and he Is re-
quired to repeat from memory the
name OF everything that was on the
tray. Gradually the numbers OF things
are increased and the time he Is al
lowed to look at them decreased. UNI
til noticing becomes habit, and
single. cuYsory glance catches up main
idea ana details In an almost magical
way. One mother. who heard OF the
method, was SO struck by its sim.
plicity and by the value Of quick OBJ
serving that she tried the expert
ments with her own children-not
with trays and objects. but in their
walks. She found that the children
develop splendid memories as WE'LL

Skill Of oId-TIme Surgeon.

OF the skill in surgery Of DR.. Val
entine Mott. it is recorded that In 1928
he performed what is universally al
lowed to be the most difficult feat ever
attempted in surgery. A clergyman
was afflicted with an enormous tumor
in the neck, in which were imbedded
and twisted many Of the great AFTER
les. In removing the tumor 1t was
necessary to take out entire one Of the
collar bones, to lay bare the mem
brane inclosing the lungs, to dissect
around arteries displaced by the tu-
NOR and imbedded in 1t, to apply AS
ligatures and remove an immense
mass OF diseased matter. All this was
done without the aid of chloroform.
The patient survived the operation
and many years afterward continued
to discharge the duties of his profess
sion.

NJ. Maurice Berteaux, the minister
OF war. intends to suppress drums in
the French army. The decision meets
the support OF such eminent military
authorities as General Faure-Bibuet,
former military governor OF Paris, who
says drummers are useless In battle.
since they carry only revolvers,
whereas buglers are armed with rifles,
which they can use in fray. He adds
that the drum, in modern armies, Is an
anachronism and should be abolished.
In spite OF the sentimental pang its
disappearance may cause. II Is Inter
esting to recall how much the late
General Boulanger's popularity arose
from his re-establishing the use OF the
drum. which preceding minister OF
war had abolished.

HowSome Diseases,
Are Carried

Recently family moved into a
house which had been vacant for
some time. A towel which was found
in the yard was Numbered and put to
use with the family linen. In . few
days all four members OF the house
hold developed a fatal case of small
pox. Investigation revealed the fact
that a smallpox patient had been in
the house months before and that the
towel picked up In the yard had been
In use at that time. In disinfecting
the place the towel was carelessly
neglected resulting in the four deaths.
Fully as careless was the appropria-
ton OF the piece of linen when the
finders were entirely ignorant as to
what use 1t had been put.
Such an instance as this ought to
awaken even the most careless per-
son to the danger of using linen.
handkerchiefs or clothing which has
been in contact with other bodies.
Even after a thorough laundering they
are used at a risk. Older people as
well as children are apt to pick up
handkerchiefs which they may find
on the street or in public places and
after a washing make use OF them.
When we consider the use that is
made of the handkerchief, that 1t is a
receptacle for waste matter from the
body. 1t is obvious that there could
scarcely be a more sure way OF invit-
ing disease. In spite of the value OF
the bit Of linen found the trick OF
using 1t is too costly to indulge in.
The wearing of gloves which are
found is another dangerous practice.
Skin Affections are easily carried in
clothing and a consideration OF the
painful and unsightly diseases which
might thus be acquired should forbid
the practice.
Another offense which arises from
the almost criminal thoughtlessness OF
parents is giving to children the nap
kins which departed guests have
made use of. The cloth is practically
unsoiled and busy mother in order
to save in the laundry is sometimes
tempted to place 1t in the napkin ring
OF one of the children instead of ar
entirely clean one. To be sure there
is very little probability Of invited
guests whom you entertain carryins
about with them the germs OF any
disease, but there Is always the DOS
sibility, and SO long as we live in 8
world SO impregnated with germs we
must use every precaution to be radi
cally clean.-M. J. T.

Lord saeon,s View Of Hope"

In "Aubrey's Lives" this quaint
story is told of Lord Bacon: His
lordship, being In the garden looking
on fishers as they were throwing their
nets, asked them what they would
take for their cast; they answered SO
much; his lordship would offer them
not more than SO much. They drew
up their net, and 1t were only two or
three fishes; he told them, 1t had
been better for them to have taken
his offer. They replied they hoped for
better draught. but. said his lord
ship. Hope is good breakfast but
an Ill supper"

HOW LAvALsrrg WAS SAVED
English OFFICER Preserved Life Of One
Time Foe.

On the escape OF Napoleon from
Elba one of the generals who rejoined
him was the brave Gen. Lavalette, a
soldier of great distinction. When
NAPOLEON was defeated Gen. Lava
lette was taken prisoner and barbar-
ously sentenced to death as traitor.
And as a traitor he would have been
executed were 1t not for Capt. Hely-
Hutchinson and two other English sol
diers. one of them being Gen. Wilson.
Gen. Lavalette was in prison on the
night before the morning appointed
for the execution. when he was visited
by his wife, daughter and a maid.
After an affecting interview In the
cell. the generals wife. apparently,
was led forth by her maid In an al
most fainting condition. But 1t was
really Lavalette himself. who had don.
ned his wife's clothes. He was taken
hurriedly to the quarters of Hely-
Hutchinson and his chivalrous cocoon
spirators. and having been dressed In
the uniform OF an English officer, he
drove boldly out of Paris and was
speedily across the frontier.

IN coLonEL's TOWN
Things Happen.

From the home of the famous ''Keyh-
down South, comes an enthusiastic let
ter about Postum:
II was In very delicate health, suf-
fering from indigestion and nervous
trouble SO severe that I could hardly
sleep. The doctor ordered me to- dis
continue the use OF the old kind of
coffee. which was like poison to me,
producing such extreme disturbance
that could not control myself. But
such was my love for 1t that could
not get my own consent to give 1t up
for some time. and continued to suffer.
till my father one day brought home q
package Of Postum Food Coffee.
II had the new food drink carefully
prepared according to directions. and
gave 1t fair trial. II proved to have
rich flavor and made a healthy,
wholesome and delightful drink To
my taste the addition of cream great
ly improves It.
my health began to improve as
soon as the drug effect OF the old cof-
fee was removed and the Postum Cot
fee had time to make Its influence felt.
Ny nervous troubles were speedily re-
lieved and the sleep which the old cof-
fee drove from my pillow always came
to soothe and strengthen me after l
had drunk Postum-in very short
time ! began to sleep better than
had for years before. have now used

Neither a poor man nor a rich man

sically to receive II as designation
Of courtesy; but even in that usage 1t
is tc-rn SO vague and indefnable
that II is not worth talking about. 1t
may be said, however, never to apply
properly to any American who boasts
OF being gentleman" because of any
accident Of his mere material circum-
stances. or to any American who is
troubled in mind lest, on account OF
them. he should not receive the title

time Butcher got sick, very sick. in
fact His wife. fearing the end. sent
for minister. Butcher talked to the
minister. who urged him that he
should not stay away from his God.
The road to salvation was not very
plain to Butcher. He questioned the
minister closely about what he
thought would happen II he should re-
form Just prior to his death. The min
lister told him he would be saved. =
