A Fox Chase.

J. w. Wayland, w. L, Wright,
R. P. Hubbard, Luther Starks,
VIM. Dougherty and Cy Payton,
the latter the owner of the dogs,
had some great sport last Satur.
day chasing a fox which they
started on the Arlington farm,
two miles southwest of Keytes-
vile.
They first captured Reynard
in a hollow tree at the foot of the
hill west Of the courthouse and
then turned him loose again for
an other chase. This time he
was run to earth in j. J. Ewing's
meadow, two miles west of this
place, and was killed by the dogs
The chase afforded big time
for the participants, and the fox
put up a game race but finally
lost his life.
jim -Wayland and Cy Paytor
were about as proud of th'
trophy of the chase as boy whs
had just been dressed up in hi
first pair of trousers.
F.! Knowing that the CoUR1E1
man is from Missouri, and ha'
| to be "shown, "Wayland brough
i,e dead fox to this office t.
erove that this story is true.

This oddity was specially displayed in
ner dress. In 1747. after a good deal of
intriguing. she had obtained permis-

1853 Horace Walpole tells Lord Hert-
ford that she presented herself there
in a gown and petticoat of red flannel.
Making all allowance for male igno-

tendency to embroider story, 1t is
beyond doubt that she deliberately

Timing the Bath.

Twenty minutes is as long as any
one should remain In the water, as
staying longer is likely to debilltate
the body. From the age Of seven to
ffty-fve. most physicians say. sea
bathing is very beneficial. However,
the writer has seen children OF three
who appeared to benefit by it.
The sea bath should be taken when
the sun shines brightly and not when
the chief meal is to be digested. At
most seashOre places from IL a. m. to
. p. m. are the favorite hours for en-
tering the water. If the bather does
not swim, some other active exercise
In the water must be adopted to take
its place. Splash about and keep the
body and limbs in motion
Persons unaccustomed to sea bath
ing should begin with a warm or tepid
bath indoors. From that they should
proceed to the cold plunge and then to
bathing in the open sea. No one should
