Geo. Hart was pa nrully injured
Sunday afternoon near the 500 stock
yards east of this city, and his fine
Lambert touring car so badly wreck
ed that it is probably useless. Mr.
Hart in company with an experienced
driver. left the city intending to go
to Granville. When going up small
hill, the springs broke, and the driv-
er lost entire control of the machine,
which left the road, and attempted to
climb steep embankment. This caus-
ed it to turn turtle, throwing the men
on a pile of stones. MI. Hart frac-
tured a rib, and his face was badly
bruised. The driver was thrown over
the steering gear and badly hurt.
The men were brot to the city by
farmer and given good care. The
front wheels of the car were totally
wrecked, and the motor thrown out

In America women travel about in
dependently and if they are quiet and
dignified they are usually treated with
respect, however custom exacts a rec
ognition as we'll as manners. For ex-
ample person who has good manners
in travelling, speaks in low tones, does
not laugh aloud, doeA zot talk for the
benefit of the public, or mention
names. does not push forward ag-
gressively, nor assume superior airs,
will not be selfish even with a car
seat, yet unless this person possesses
things she may from q lack Of exper-

tent that she attracts undue atten-
ton and unkind criticism. OF course

finement. When it is warm 1T is sem
sible to wear thin materials but never
