The UnconauerabIe Eoe.

John Bright once described the va
riety of stage fright with which he
was familiar with telling and quotable
point. He was discussing public
speaking with George Dawson. an
eminent Englishman of his day, when,
according to a paragraph in the late
David Christie Murray's "Recollec-
items he said:
Tell me- friend George, you have, I
suppose, as large an experience in
public speaking as any man in Eng.
land. Have you any acquaintance
with the old' nervous tremor?"
NO Dawson replied "or if l have
it is mere momentary Qualm, which
is gone before I can realize it,"

tribune, 81 have had practice enough.

PLANTING WITH THE MOON.
Idea Has Firm Belief Everywhere, and
If 1t Does No Good, Does
No Harm.

The agricultural department has
undertaken to disabuse the mind of
the American farmer of the "supersti-
ton" that the moons phases infiu.
ence the growth or yield of crops, the
Washington Post says. This is mat
ter that has pestered the husband
man and the philosopher for ages and
the interrogatory is as pertinent to-
day as it was when Shakespeare was
a farmer. If the moon influences the
action of the waters of the ocean, why
should it not exercise some dominion
over the energy of the soil?
Ten thousand times ten thousand in
telligent, thrifty, successful farmers
will tell you that they have profited
by giving respect and making note of
this superstition. They have been
disregarded it they will say the re-
suit has proved disastrous.
Shakespeare was endowed with a
wonderful understanding, at once tele-
scopic and microscopic. Nothing was
too great for him to observe and moth
ing too minute for him to disregard.
He was a successful planter and he
believed in the moon superstition. In
"Troilius and Cressida," where the
lover made the eXtravagant protesta-
tions of his loyalty to his mistress,
one of the SMILES he drew was:
AS true as steel, as plantage to the
moon,
AS sun to Gay, as turtle TO her mate,
AS iron to adamant, as earth TO the
center.
What is it that could occupy the hu.
man mind that Shakespeare did not
investigate and pursue to it's last con-
clusion, If it were confined to matters
material to the world? Nothing-abso.
lutely and if he advised the planting
of potatoes in the dark of the moon
and the laying of rail fence worm
in the light of the moon nobody is go,
ing to the poorhouse by acting on his
| admonition.
Superstition is a very good thing
! to encourage now and then-especial

Tragic Ordeal of Little Ada Price,
Unscathed by the Tornado That
Wrecked Her Home, and HolO She
Met the Command of Her Inpris-
oned Father by BraUey Swinging
the Rescue Ak.

WM OWDEN, GA.--All alone in
81 the darkness stood Ada
NJ Price, slip of girl of 15.
B "A About her ears shrieked the
last blasts of the fast-dying
tornado, which had left
everything in ruins in its twisting.
whirling way. At her feet lay the
ruins of what had been her pretty
nome only few seconds before.
From beneath that shattered heap
Of boards and bricks, still wreathed in
lust, came a moan and groan. Next
the shriIl cry of a child smote her
heart. Not soul stood near. And
then Ada Price knew the truth-be-
ueath that ghastly pile lay buried her
father, her mother and her two little
brothers. And she was alone in the
darkness.
Wreck and ruin lay all about her.
There was no use crying for help;
help there was none. The nearest
neighbors were some distance away,
and they, too, were having troubles of
their own. 1t was for Ada Price to do
for herself and hers alone.
And before that dreadful night was
over she was called upon to do some
thing more perhaps, something that
never girl has been called upon to
do before. She had to cut off her faith
er's hand with an AK that he might be
set free. The mother lay beneath the
ruins, too-it was in the hope of saw
ing her that the hand was sacrificed.
But all to no good.

"Cut OF my band." begged her
father.
"I can't, oh, | can't" cried the girl.

This view of it hadn't struck the
poor girl. Perhaps she could get her

Price found the woodpile in the dark
ness. She knew an ak was there.
Down on her hands and knees she
went. feeling this way and that for
the tool she knew she must have to
chop out her father and her mother
and her two little brothers. Then she
got a lantern from the ruins of the
woodshed-it had not been broken
and lighted it. Back to the wreck of
her home she went, guided by the
means of her father and the screams
of her little brothers. There was no
one else to help.
Bravely the lone girl set at her task
She started chopping nearest the
cries of her brothers, all the time fear
ful that false stroke might end their
sufferings. But she kept her wits and
her strength, and finally there was a
hole just big enough to pull out the
little fellows, badly bruised but not
seriously injured.
Finally Chopped Her Way
To the Side of Her Father.
Her father was buried more deeply
in the wreck. For an hour Ada Price
toiled on, getting nearer and nearer to
where he lay. One by one she loos-
ened the timbers that pinned him
down, chopping away at each with all
the skill that love could conjure. At
length she got down to him. The last
timber was chopped away.
Can you get out now, father?" she
asked of the groaning man beneath
her, "All the timbers are chopped
through"
Poor Price made an effort to lift
himself. 1t was no use-a huge stone
was pinning him down by the hand !:
he could not move With all her fast
ebbing strength the anguished girl

got to mamma we found that 1t was
all useless, anyway; she had been
hurt by the roof when it fell in. She
had died even before got the children

And through it all Ada Price hadn't
tainted or given UP, or sat down to
cry-she was just a plucky little girl
who did what she could for those she
loved

the girls reply.
Then | order you to do it" said her
father. IF you disobey me now and
let your mother die, then you must
take the consequences. And be quick
about it!''
To this there was no answer. Ada
Price knew that she must. Without
tremor she lifted the AK and brought 1t
down with one swift, sharp blow.
The mangled hand was left under the
stone and slowly the injured father
tottered out of his prison, minus his
left hand Quickly the girl tore a
piece of sheeting into strips and bound
up the stump of her fathers bleeding
forearm as best she could. Faint and
weak, still the mans indomitable cour-
age kept up, and with his daughter
they worked at the wreckage until
they came upon Mrs. Price.
But their mutual sacrifice had been
in vain. The wife and mother lay cold
in death She had evidently died of
/ her hurts even before the little boys
sister. Then Ada took her father to
the nearest physician to have his
handless arm properly treated.
Weak to the point of collapse; com
pletely overcome with grief at the
death of the mother She adored, Ada
Price kept up until the last detail was
done by the doctors. Even then there
could be no let-up. There were the
two motherless little boys to be cared
for now, and that duty fell upon the
frail shoulders of that brave little
daughter of the house. Not a thing
was left undone.
Every one who knows pretty Ada

Treasury Report
Causes Sensation

A sensation, the effects of which
are said to have been International,
was created in Washington when it
was learned that the Treasury Report
had become public, and which was
not to have been released until yes
terday. Two printed copies were
found in the Senate Chamber by
ambitious reporters and they at once
flashed the full report to the four
corners. An amusing feature in the
miX-up lies in the fact that the report
should not have been handed down
in the Senate at all, since it was ad-
dressed to the Speaker of the House
of Representatives.
