BUY A HOME

The man who waits for opportunity
and when he sees it takes it, is not
so good a man as he who does not
wait. but makes it. If 7 were asked
what is lacking in the majority of men,
/ should say: initiative coupled with
Judgment. BY the power of the for
mer man is impelled to do things
and may make mistakes. On the other
hand, his mistakes tend to cultivate
Judgment and his earlier failures may
be turned into stepping stones to sue
cess. Many men fail because they fear
to attempt"
Make the attempt to own a home,
begin now. property is low and terms
are easy. Let your rent help you buy
a home.

MISSOURI IS FOR DEMOCRACY.
Party Leader in Audrain County
Sees State and National
Victory.
St. Louis Republic.

Mexico, Mo-, Aug. 26.-Col. Green
Clay, chairman Of the Audrain Coun-
ty Democratic Central Committee, q
Democratic leader in Central Missouri,
said to-day, concerning the chances
for a Democratic victory:
Victory for Democracy seems to be
In the air. Take the situation In Ethe
State. Among the Democrats every.
one is pleased with the national
ticket. No holding back or going
fishing on that account, and while
Mr.. Ball's managers in the first hour
OF defeat gave q u for lexaggeration
Of fraud charges to the Republican
press, who in desperation, exploited
1t with voracious zeal, yet the alleged
frauds. under investigation by a Re-
publican prosecutor and with the
stimulus Of q large reward by the Gov.
ernor, seemed to dwindle TO the ordi-
nary irregularities and fraudulent
voting incident to all elections In
large cities and affecting all candi-
dates about equally. But IIhave yet
to find . Ball supported, Of the boys
Of the "lLttle Red Schoolhouse," in
this, a Bail county, who has any
thought Of not voting the ticket.
Most Of them are enthusiastic Cow
hero men now.
"As to the national outlook, the
trend Is undoubtedly towards Bryan.
The labor sentiment and every indi-
cation shows this. You meet Republi-
cans who will vote for Bryan, but
rarely a Democrat who is dissatisfied
with bis ticket.

FOOT BALL RULES

Style of Play Practically Unehang
ed-IntePmission Between

less Use Of The For

CuPtailed.

The new football rules will moi
materially alter last years style Of
play, according to DR.. Monilaw, Of
Columbia. The new rules have just
been printed.
The reckless use of the forward
pass will be curtailed and the pass
will be made to the same man or Il
alternating pair Of players. This will
not effect the pass used by Missouri al
Graves did most Of the passing last
year TO Alexander. The kind of pass
that will be cut of is the one used bj
Texas lasC fall In the second half
when the ball vas thrown indiscrim.
inately to any player who happened tt
be In front.
Another change In the rules Is that
the head timer will be the field Judge
instead Of the head llnesman, so thai
the time will be kept out on the field
Halves are to be IS minutes inter
mission instead Of ten minutes, al
heretofore
The style OF play will not be affected
by the new rules to any extent. The
number Of yards to be gained in three
downs and tother features are thu

CIRCUs-MAD BOY is BADLY HUR'
Initiates Tight Wire Walker With
Fearful Result-Lays for Hours
on Ground Pinned by Leg

Selecting his mothers close line as
a tight rope upon which to initiate
the daring feats OF performers be had
seen while attending bis first circus a
few weeks ago, Donald Ross, of Boone
County, I years old, Tuesday morning
fell on the ground and landed upon a
sharp stake.
The neshy pat Of bis leg was pierced
through and the boy was held fast for
several hours before his mother came
to his rescue.
Donald's youthful miad was much
impressed by some Of the things he
had seen at the circus and 1t became
the one ambition Of his life to per-
form on the tight rope. Time and
again his mother warned him against
the accident. The accident occurred
some distance from the house and
Donald's cries were not heard. When
the dinner hour came Mrs. Ross
missed her boy. She went In search
of him and found him still pinned TO
the ground.
The lad suffered intense pain and a
fever, which may prove fatal, has set
In. He is the son Of B. T. Ross, a
