QUINCY news

What might have been a much
more serious accident, and which
was rather disastrous to Dentist
Graves, as it was, happened to a
number of our young people on Sun
day morning last as they were
driving across the railway on their
way for an outing at Baird Springs
One of the two teams being driven
was but poorly broken, and the live
freight engine standing on the track
near the crossing frightened the
team when the attempt to cross the
track was made. The team bolted
down the track in the opposite direc-
ton. There were eight people in
the conveyance and all either jumped
out or were pitched out. Dr. Graves
landed on his head, cutting a big
cash just above the temple and
making several large scalp wounds
on the back of his head, the blow
rendering him unconscious for sew
eral minutes. His wounds were at
tended by DR.. Vail, and Mr. Graves is
improving rapidly at present writ
ing. None of the other occupants of
the vehicle were hurt.
The horses ran into a telegraph
pole and loosened themselves from
the rig, and were captured later. An
other rig was procured and the par
~ continued to have their proposed
outing.

John and l reckoned as how, after
our being absent spell, you might
banker after a word or two bearing
on our whereabouts and welfare.
Firstly. We live in Wenatchee, in
the valley where the winesap grows.
John says for me not to attempt to
tell you how the town is laid out, as
1t is too live a town to be laid out
yet awhile. I don't know as to that.
But / can say truthfully that said
valley is bounded on the east by
Douglas county and during high wa
ter by the Columbia river But dur

into the Pacific ocean. (The tide

Wenatchee river furnishes the north

John says rain has been known to

SOME INEXPENSIVE
CHRISTMAS GIFTS
Begin Early and You Will Be
Glad You Have Made a
Good Start.

1t is reVcr too early in the year to be-
gin 10 make Christmas presents, and
just now there are very many new
ideas which may be picked up even
during a mornings walk. Take, for in
stance, the matter OF workbags. They
may be made In all shapes and sizes,
they may be fashioned of almost all
materials, and when one they are al
ways useful.
This year c~retonne is particularly de
sirable. and IL may be purchased In
many delightful designs. There is the
heavy corded variety; there Is thd soit,
rather translucent kind OF domessT
make, and there is the fascinating
shadow cretonne, always so dainty and
pretty.
AS TO the bags. there are the ample
ones made TO draw up with a ribbon
or those made on a stick. These last,
by the way, are worth noticing. Their
contents are unlikely to get out or
place, and little pockets may be ar
ranged all around them, SO each indi-
vidual help TO sewing may be quickly
and easily found. The sticks on which
they are made are purchased at almost
any hardware store for ! cent apiece,
and they may be round or fiat like
those used In the bottoms of window
curtains.
bags strung on rlDDOnS neGu TllSS,
and the best are OF white N They
are for sale at art needlework shops
and they cost but little. 1t is a good
idea to give the dainty lady a glove
bag fitted with different colored cot
tons. needles, scissors and thimble.
For the matron what could be nicer
than a darning bag with a china egg,
or one OF the patent darners and sew
eral sizes OF darning needles?
For the girl a white bag is nice.
This may have cottons, fine and
coarse. and all kinds OF needles within.
] wonder why IL is that no n
thinks of giving a busy mother a great
number of assorted needles. 1t would
be q useful gift, and every woman
knows what a comfort IL is to have
plenty of such things on hand.
But bags may be OF other materials
than c%retonne. Little white embrold-
cred bars are nice, TN lovely ones
are made Of large silk handkerchiefs
or bandanas, bright with color.
Bags may be round or fiat. Some are
built on a foundation of covered card
board, and the most beautiful of all are
of pompadour ribbon gathered round
a fiat basket which forms the bot
tom.
There is hardly a bit OF bright ma
terial around the house that could not
be fashioned into a charming gift that
would we'll repay the work done upon
II by the competent needleW0man.

offer To his work people has attracted
SO much attention, is possessed of
great wealth acquired by his own ex-

brought off the coup on his own re-
sponsibility, and on his return home,
was rewarded by an admission 10 the

Some two months ago | had a hui

beefsteak, all red, and no one knows
how they itched and burned. They
were so swollen that l could not get
my shoes on for a week or more. l
used five or six different remedies and
got no help, only when applying them
the burning was worse and the itching
less. For two or three weeks the suf-
fering was intense and during that time

n morning l tried a bit Of Cuticura.
From the moment it touched me the
