g The Merry Oldsmobile.


The latest acquisition to the ranks
of the local autoists is Col. D. X. B.
Sellers, of the Canon Realty company.
who brought from Denver the first OF
the week an Oldsmobile Of the most
approved pattern. 1t Is a twenty-four
horse power machine and Ia a beauty
in every respect Five people can be
seated in it very comfortably and 1t
can be geared up to sped of forty
miles an hour. 1t is painted steel
gray color the latest French idea in
such matters, and is hill climber of
exceptional power. having no difficulty
in ascending a road with a thirty per
cent gradient. 1t was made at Lam
sing, Michigan, and was brought down
from Denver by Frank Thomas and
Col Sellers few days ago under Its
own power, but the muddy condition of
the roads between Denver and Colo
RADIO Springs precluded the possibility
of lowering the automobile record be-
tween the two places. The economy of
the machine in fuel is evidenced by
the fact that on ordinary good roads a
gallon Of gasoline will furnish power
enough to drive 1t distance OF fifteen
miles.

SO feet long, and is equipped with a
car in which is a small gasaline en-
CINE and a propeller and rudder.

of the Columbia, but We're disappoint-

he would be obliged to remove the en-
gine and make a simple ascension.

Giant Buck Deer Charges an Auto.

ALBANY, N. Y, July 17.-Springins
out from the thick brush that lines the
roadway along the Mohawk valley, 10
miles west of Albany, giant buck
deer charged an automobile driven by
William E. Snyder. Thinking that the
buck would stop before he reached the
machine, Snyder stopped his car to get
a better view of the animal.
The apparently maddened beast,
however, kept on, and before Mr..
Snyder could get his machine under
motion the buck had ripped off the rear
headlights with his antlers and pierced
one of the tires By this time the ma
chine had gathered considerable speed
and the buck sprang back into the
bush. Snyder's machine limped into
Albany on three tires.

Blood From q Stone.

The open terrace in front Of the De-
wan-i- Khas consists of two thrones,
the black one of which, facing the riv-
er, was cut out of a single slab Of
stone in 1903. This black throne, which
is about eleven feet long and support
ed by octagOnal pedestals, was built
by Akbar in recognition of his sons
title to the empire. Here Jchangir
used to sit occasionally and see the
fight Of wild animals arranged for his
amusement. The crack on the throne
is believed to have been caused by
Lord Lakes bullet falling upon it dur
ing the attack of 1903. According to
tradition, however, it cracked when
the Jat king Of Bharatpur sat on the
throne, for it was meant to be used by
none but the real descendants of the
great mogul. Then, again, when Lord
Peterborough sat on it during the Ka-
bull war in 1912 blood is supposed to
have come out of it. - East Indian

Your Vocation.

Do Not Ignore the Money Side of
Your Vocation.
No matter what your vocation may
be, you must be a business man first
or you will always be placed at great
disadvantage in the practical affairs of
life. We cannot entirely ignore the
money side Of existence any more than
we can the food side, and the very
foundation of a practical, successful
life is the ability to know how to man
age the money side effectively.
1t is infinitely harder to save money
and to invest it wisely than to make
it, and if even the most practical men,
men who have had long training in
scientific business methods, find it a
difficult thing to hold on to money aft
er they make it. what is likely to hap
pen to people who have had practically
no training in business methods?
If every child in America had a
thorough business training tens Of thou
sands Of promoters, long headed, cum
ming schemers, who have thrived on
the peoples ignorance, would be out of
an occupation.
1 believe that the business colleges
are among the greatest blessings in
American civilization today, because
they have saved thousands Of homes
from being wrecked and have made
happy and comfortable tens Of thou
sands of people who might otherwise
be living in poverty and wretchedness

EARTHQUAKES In Great Britain.

Repeatedly. at wide intervals of time
the British islands have been the scene
of great and long continued volcano
Outbursts. In almost every part are
traces of volcanic energy Of one form
or another. SnOwden, Cader-Idris.
Scawfell Helvellyn, the Wrekin, Dart
moor and the Cornish hills are few
of the remains Of such eruptiOns as
have formed Vesuvius There have
been others where the lava has come
yelling through great assures in the
earths crust. flooding it with seas of
liquid fire. which as they cooled solidi-
fled into rocks, sometimes hundreds,
sometimes thousands Of feet in thick
ness. Thus were formed the basaltic
plateaus Of Antrim and the Shetlands
and the great Cleveland dixie, with a
total length of 100 miles. Then, again,
separate outbreaks have flung up such
records as the Bass rock and the hill
on which Edinburgh castle stands.

BURIALS IN CUBA.
Customs That Remind One of the
Parsees of Bombay.

customs That Remind One of the
Parsees of Bombay.
burial customs in Cuba are almost
as strange as the Parsee customs and
their towers of silence in Bombay. 1t
seems that the reopening of graves in
cuba is the result of long established
custom of burying as many bodies as
possible In a single grave. The GENE
terry routine is like this:
First some one, usually the head Of
FAMILY, buys plot. He at once sets
to work digging his own grave and
graves for all the members of his fam
lily. He digs several graves six feet
long for adults and one grave four feet
long to provide for the possible death
of a child. When the entire area of the
plot is thus in open graves the digger
turns mason and plasterer. He ce
ments each grave, bottom and sides.
Then he fills in the cemented graves
with soil and goes home with the salts
factory thought that he may look upon
his own grave during his lifetime and
that it is ready for him at any time he
is ready for it.
But the weirdest part of this custom
Is yet to be told. In the middle Of the
plot square grave is dug, hole
about six feet each way. This square
hole Is cemented like the graves and
filed in with soil. 1t should be explain
ed here that the bodies in the graves
are covered with quicklime. When the
flesh has disappeared and only the
bones are left the bones are taken out
Of the grave and thrown into the
square hole in the center Of the plot.
Thus the graves are used over and
over again until the square hole in the
center is filed with the bones Of the
members Of this or that family. Then
the hole Is sealed over, and that par
ticular family plot is abandoned and a
new one purchased.-London Tit-Bits.

Why Eyes Get Red.

The eyeball contains high percent
age Of blood, and why, therefore, is it
white? The answer is that the blood
vessels which supply its surface are
so exceedingly minute that usually
they do not admit the little red corpus
cles to which the ordinary red appear
ance Of the blood is due. Blood without
these corpuscles is colorless, or, at
most, Of the faintest yellow tint. But
occasionally when the eye is irritated
or when there is any slight or consid-
cradle arrangement Of the system GER
tain of the little vessels enlarge suffi-
GENTLY to allow the cOrpuscles to en-
ter, therehI producing the we'll known
red streaks or inflamed appearance Of
the eyeball.

Pennsylvania Endeavorers Meet,

ALTOONA, Pa, July 17.-One of the
most interesting and best arranged
programs has been prepared for the
annual state convention of the Society
of Christian Endeavor which opens
here today at the Second Presbyterian

500 members of the local church choirs
has been carefully trained for many

musical numbers of the programs. The
attendance promises to be very large.
