Winthrope held out bunch of long

The girl shrank back; but Blake
stopped and examined first one slipper

jeTked them loose and twisted them
firmly over and under the slippers and
about the girls slender ankles before
knotting the ends.

He thrust the empty whisky flask
into his hip pocket and went back to

HINTS TO ADVERTISERS.

every ad.
Don't have too much display.
Say the most in the least number OF
words. and in the most straightforward
way. and interesting
For legibility nothing can take first
place away from Roman.
Never have too much fine type, il
any at all: the reader will not strain
his eyes to read any ad, no matter how
interesting the copy.
1t is not always the smoothest writ
ten ad that pulls the most. You know
how you size up silver-tongued So

English in monosyllables, viii never
turn you down.
Be sure that your ad, If divided into
sections, is evenly balanced. and has
an equal amount of matter in each bal
anced unit.
Don't try to catalogue your entire
stock in one ad; leave something for
the next time-leave a little bait
Be sure to number the different parts
of the ad as per dummy. So that the
compositor has no trouble in placing
the matter as you want it.
Remember that too much economy in
advertising is ofttimes extravaganza

CHICAGO WHEAT.

Chicago, May 26.-Foreign markets
were all weak and lower today on
rain reports from Russia and BARTON
of the continent. There was great
action in the July prices. The trade
here is not influenced by the action
of foreign prices as for the present
we are not depending on Europe.
Bradstreet reported a decrease of
3,057 900 bushels in the worlds visible
supply. Northwest receipts were
small Export clearances of wheat
and flour were $4,000 bushels. This
certainly indicates fast depletion of
supplies. Very bullish reports come
from some of the best wheat counties
of southern Illinois. We feel that be-
levers in wheat at this level or at
higher prices should not be misled by
chOppy market such as We had to-
day. We think the only thing to
keep right is to get into these dis
counted months on the buying side on
all good drops.
There was considerable effort on
the part of bear forces in the local
trade to start a decline late in the
session, but the move was only partly
successful. Flattering conditions for
the growing crop where weather has
turned warmer are offset by the fact
that corn raisers are not active sell
lers. Receipts today were 407 cars.

study of the animal mind that has
been going on since this century came
in, this is it. Animals do not reason:
they never have reasoned: they never
by any possibility can reason. The
wisest of thin do indeed. get into the
borderland that separates reasoning
from other mental processes; but no
living creature, except man, ever gets
unequivOcally across the line
All this. to be sure. science had
made out in a general way twenty
years ago. But of late years, begin
ming with Lloyd Morgan, the whole
matter has been gone over again, not
by collecting more or less authentic
anecdotes, but by means of the most
carefully devised experiments. Ami
mails have been placed in situation
where the stupidest of men would GER
tainly use reason, and where the ami
NAL had every incentive and every
opportunity to use it. In no case has
the animal done so. Instead, every
time, it has attained it's end by a
mental process that looks like reason,
but is not. Today, therefore, science
not only knows that animals do not
reason; il understands also the men,
tai process that, in the more intelli-
gent creatures. gives rise to the fall
lacious appearance of reason. AT the
present time. we not only know that
no living thing except man can rea-
son, but we understand. in addition,
the something just as good that en-
ables other creatures to get on with

STUCK IN THE HILLS

Halbert Miller received telephone
message from L. C. Hill yesterday
afternoon advising him that an auto
mobile party was stuck on the
Roosevelt road between Mormon Flat
and Tortilla. Mr.. Hill wanted Mr..
Miller to go to their rescue with the
Miller machine. Unfortunately, how
ever the Miller machine was out of
commission pending the arrival of
some repairs from Los Angeles. They
arrived yesterday afternoon. but not
in time to let Mr.. Miller make the
trip. 1t is presumed that some other
machine was pressed into service and
played the good Samaritan part to
the stranded ones.

Terrific Fight with a Mad Bull.

Under the title of "A Hero's Life"
David A Piatt, In the June Wide
World Magazine. tells how Nicholas
Oberting, of Lawrenceburg, Ind,
fought. conquered and slew mad
dened bull which had attacked three
boys. Rushing at the head of the in
furiated bull" writes Mr.. Piatt, "he
grasped it by the horns. Bracing his
feet as best he could in the soft earth.
he summoned all the muscular
strength at his command and sought
to overthrow the brute.
Meanwhile the terrified lads had
retired to place of comparative safe

ty. Gradually Oberting forced the bull
back. The strain to which he was
subjected was terrific His face, neck
and arms grew purple from exertion.
his body grew tense and rigid. and
his muscles were strained almost to
breaking point.
For fully five minutes the man and
beast struggled for supremacy. The
underground was trampled down and
the earth threshed into a morass into
which both cOmbatants sank to their
knees Thrice the bull gore away from
Oberting's grasp. and thrice the in
trepid man regained his hold upon the
wicked horns.
Finally. the crucial point of the
mad conflict was reached, and man
and bull locked together in one final,
furious effort for supremacy. With a
below that ended in a groan the
enormous head of the bull slowly be-
ban to turn under the power of
Obertings muscles, as he, with one
mighty effort, put forth all the re-
serve force of his superhuman
strength. The animals eyes seemed
almost to burst from their sockets,
and its agonized bellows mingled with
the rasping breath of it's human an
tagonist.
Inch by inch the head of the
Notwithstanding brute turned in
the mans hands. Then suddenly the
long, parched, and blood-stained
tongue lolled from the foaming jaws,
and the bull staggered to its knees.
There came a sickening crunch of
rending bones, and the animal toppled
over and lay amid the mire-its neck
