Your large. tranquil "cowlike" eyes,

The statistics Of foreign trade Of
the United States show that we are
importing unusually large quantities
and values Of agricultural products.
But there is no occasion for alarm by
our farmers Sugar and tobacco do
not seriously compete with the native
output, and coffee. silk and rubber
are not rivals for anything grown at
home. The American producer who
supplies large part OF the world with
breadstuffs, cotton and meat is still
far ahead of the game. and may rest

CAR HITS COW.
Trolley Car Collides win Cow Near
Electric Park SATURDAY. Evening.

Car No. 9 struck a COW on the
track near Electric park about $3.50
Saturday evening, killing the COW
and slightly injuring several of the
passengers and damaging the car to
some extent.
The COW started to cross the track
near the Sunnyside crossing, when
the motorman threw on the air
brakes, but the momentum was too
great to stop the car. After striking
the cow, the front trucks regained
the tracks, which was all that saved
the car, with thirty-five passengers,
from overturning, as the rear trucks
left the rails.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. w. Smithson and
baby were thrown across the car
Mr.. Smithson, who was holding the
baby, was pushed partly through a
window, the child falling between
two logs outside. The baby ESCAPED
injury, but Mr.. Smithson was Sc
verely cut on the right wrist by the
window glass. Taken in all, the pas.
sengers on the car were fortunate in
escaping serious injury. We have
not learned who was the owner OF
the COW that caused the trouble.

'" We may choose to excuse these supplements as feeting in their in. fluence, and on the ground that they ''amuse the children who forget them. But we need only look back to our own childhood and quickly prove to our selves the untruth of such an argument. Childhood influences are tremendously potent; impressions made upon us in the first fifteen years of our lives are prac- tically ineffaceable. If they were other wise, why do we take so much pains in training our children?
 Childhood memories are not fleeting; they are permanent; and in that very fact lies the incalculable injury of these supplements. " Few things latterly devised by the mind of man are likely to prove so pernicious to the future ideas of our children as these modern despoilers of the youthful mind.

Bulle. in His Head Forty-four Years

| With a Confederate bullet in his heat that has been there forty-four year, and six months, Abraham Strausser ot No. 2S West Third street, .hale anC hearty, celebrated his seventy fifth an niversary of his birth on Sunday. Al 30 years of age, on November ,, 1865 he enlisted in the Union army, and al the battle of South Mountain, on Sep tember l4, 1862, Mr. Strausser was struck squarely between the eyes with mimic ball, and was left lying on the field for dead. --e was unconscious for two days. Then, when he finally did come to his senses, he was discovered by his comrades and carried to hos. pital.
 At the hospital he lowered between life and death for nine weekes, but finally recovered and was discharged from the service. Since that time Mr. Strausser has spent nearly all of his life in Columbia county.
 On several occasions he has had K ray photographs taken of his head, a ,d the ball was plainly located between the roof of his mouth and the frontal bone of the skull. The photographs were made by eminent experts, and they all said it was wonder that he was not instantly killed.-- -Bloomsburg dispatch to the Philadelphia Record.
