Not very long ago I heard a
lady say that she greatly deplored
the fact that children were not as
strong and robust as they used to
be. She drew attention to the fact
that ten children now wear glasses
to where one did w.en she was a
girl. Likewise she might have said
that ten children today against one
when she was a girl T treated for
faulty hearing and operated on in
various ways to overcome imper-
fections. The facts do not indicate
what the lady claimed they do. On
the other hand, they simply indi-
cate that u eyes have been open
ed to these infirmities, and instead
of letting them go like We used to
we now take mean to remedy them
Undoubtedly the greatest cause of
stupidity among children is be-
cause OF bodily infirmities which
can be remedied.-Farmer & Stock

Boy Hun, er's Awful Mishap

East st. Louis, ILL.,, July 2.-His
eyes destroyed by the accidental
discharge of a shotgun, crazed with
heat and thirst, Gregory Buginsky,
II years old, OF West Granite City,
ILL.,, wandered aimlessly about an
uninhabited island in the Gaberet
slough for two days and nights.
This afternoon the lad was found
by a party of hunters, his arms
around a tree, gnawing viciously at
the bark.
His face was covered with clott-
ed blood and his blackened tongue
was hanging from his mouth when
the hunters found him. While he
was being carried to the boat he
fought fiercely.
At the Granite City hospital to-
night it was said that there was
but little hope for his recovery.
Gregory Wednesday sought to
get a number of his companions to
go hunting with him. When they
refused he got his fathers gun and
rowed to the island in the slough
TO hunt for snipe.
At the hospital the boy was able
to give a disconnected account of
what happened on Gaberet Island.
"When l got in the middle Of
the island" he said 81 got the trig-
ger in the gun caught in the branch
of a tree. 1t went off. 1 fell to the
ground. When 1 got up-I guess
it was a couple of hours afterwards
i could not see anything. The
pain in my head was awful and I
was SO thirsty. l was afraid to
move because there is water all
around the island and it is deep.
/ was afraid I would fall in.
g" think I went to sleep for a
little while. When / woke up 1
was burning. My head was hurt
ing worse and I was so thirsty. 1
bit my arm to get soma blood to
drink, but it hurt so much that I
stopped"
1t is thought that the boy be-
came crazed after this and did not
know what he was doing.

Mr.. Frank w. York,
Blue Lick, Mo.
Dear Sir:-The water from the
Blue Lick spring is received all
right, and we are glad to have it.
Seven hundred miles is q good
ways to send for the water, and
it cost me- over so cents a gallon
here, all charges Included, but it
is worth the money to us. We
used the water steadily in our
family at Marshall for ten years,
with incalculable benefit. l think
the people of Saline county do not
appreciate your Blue Lick water
for stomach troubles. 1t is pre-
cisely the same as the famous Blue
Lick water of Kentucky, which /
well remember was shipped all
over that state, and used in my
fathers family there, when l was
a boy, forty or fifty years ago.
Yours truly,

SAN BERNARDINO, Jan. 23.-Word

wife and three children, have lost their
lives in the floods which during the
mountain canyons. The scene of the
disaster is about ten miles northeast
of Bear Valley.

the expectation being that the bodies
will be found in the debris below the
site Of the lone cabin. The family lived
In a secluded gulch, had a small cat

in mining
yesterday morning miners living in
that section found the MacCume cabin
washed away and half buried in de-
bris. 1t had been carried a quarter
of mile down the gulch and no trace
of the family could be seen. The in
dications are that a fearful flood tore
down the small canyon Unexpectedly,
possibly as the result Of a cloudburst,
and bore away the house, probably
while the family was asleep. The en-
tire ranch was swept clean of build
ings and fences, showing how great
had been the force Of the water.
An alarm was issued to the Bear

Talk of Petitioning for Special EIec,

Ordinance Existent in

SANTA MONICA, Jan. 23.-If the
city council persists in reducing the
license of the wholesale liquor dealers
in Santa Monica from $3.50 to 5000 a
month another petition for a special
election will be circulated at once, and
the public asked to enact the Pasadena
liquor law. SO, at least, the Prohibi-
ton leaders declare.
The proposed ordinance prohibits the
sale of liquor except in hotels, res
taurantS and club houseS.
Many who were opposed to the or
dinance submitted to the people at the
last election declare they would favor
such a law, as it is believed a large MA
jority would be cast for it.
Judge Charles J. Noyes has intro
duced a resolution in Santa Monica
Elks' lodge, No. 906, to exclude all
liquors from the club house except OH
special occasions, where refreshments
are served or unusual entertainment is
in progress.
The resolution has been printed and
mailed to all members of the lodge by
]. B. Proctor, the secretary. 1t will be
voted on next Thursday night at the
regular lodge meeting.
Judge Noyes is supported in this un-
dertaking by many popular members of
the order. The movement is the sub
ject of much discussion among lodge
