THE Pioneer is in receipt Of an
anonymous comm unication re.
plying to our editorial Of Feb. 6
regarding the impure goods sold
by the Sears Roebuck catalogue
house. AS the article was not
signed Of courseit was consigned
to the waste basket. One item
in the letter which we might all
be interested in is "Why do you
not publish the names of local
concerns who are fined for sell
ing adulterated goods?'' To
which we reply that the local
man places his goods on the shelf
as honest goods open at all times
to the pure food commission,
while those Of the Sears Roebuck
stamp go direct to the consumer
and frauds are harder to detect.

NO LADY'S MOUNT
The Beautiful Horse Exacts a
Brave Rider. -

M HEN we lived in the coun-
wv try, in the southern part
of Indiana, we had a beautiful
horse, who was rather queer. One
fine day, a number Of girls and
myself planned to ride horseback
to the city. That morning [
donned my best white gown and
hat and rode off on this horse,
feeling like a queen. AS soon as
we were out Of sight Of the house,
he began to limp, then to hop
along on three legs. When this
did not make me turn toward
home, he walked close to a barb
wire fence and tore my dress.
There was nothing else to do then
but 90 home and find out what
was the matter with him. When
I reached home the boys ex-
amined him, but could not see
anything the matter, so I started
out again. But just as soon as
we were out of sight Of the house
he began to hop along on three
legs again. I would not have
minded that, but when we came
to the brook, instead of going
over the bridge, he started thru
the water, and stopped when we
reached the middle. I poked
him-he ducked his neck-and I
was in the water. Very much out
of temper I mounted and drove
him home. After the boys had
examined him again, they burst
out laughing, saying that he must
be playing a joke on me-. Sure
enough it was so. For when one
of the boys mounted, he'acted all
right. To this day, that horse
will not let a lady ride him.

BY-AND-BY WONDER
More Rapid Travel Will Come
With a Smokeless Age.

.. (Prize.)-
ID EOPLE declared that the
l. age Of invention had
passed. For a hundred years or
more there had been no great in
ventions. But in 2219, genius
came to light, compared, with
whom the great Edison was
mere tinker. This mans name
was John Brown. He first arose
from obscurity to fame by solv->
ing the problem of the gasolene
engine. This engine had been
used for over two centuries, but
in a very imperfect and danger
GUS construction. Browns in
vention sealed the fate of the To-.
connective forever, and within a
few years the great superiority
of the new engines over steam
was readily seen. That is the
reason that all our trains are now
moved by cheaper and better
method than they were few
years ago. At the same time
this wonderful man had been
working on his air-carriages, and
a few months later this inven-
tion, which will in after years
probably revolutionize the
world $ commerce, was given to
the public. These air-ships are
as yet only owned b. the rich,
but the time will surely come
when they will supplant the au-
tomobile for business as well as
for pleasure use. It was GER
tainly a public calamity that
this genius died so young-at the
age of 24-only four months aft
or his GREAT invention had been
