LAD FOUND DYNAMITE
 CARTRIDGES GOOD
He Tested Them Between Two Rocks and Furnished a Nice Job
 for Physician.

Curiosity to know what would hap pen if he placed q bunch of dyna- mite cartridges on one rock and ham 7-year-ol lad named Kane, living at 1050 West Polk street, to conduct an experiment along that line yester- day At a late hour last night he was resting easily, despite the loss of the ends of two fingers, a badly injured foot and various gashes upon his body and limbs.
 The youngster was exploring an old barn in the neighborhood of his home and ran across about twenty dynamite cartridges. He didn't know what they were, but from their gen. eral appearance he suspected that they were some kind of metallic fire cracker.
 Going to his home, he laid the car tridges upon a rock in the front yard. All but two rolled off, but these two he swatted with all the strength of his strong young arm. Being good dynamite cartridges, manufactured by a reputable concern, they did just what they were intended to do when subjected to concussion. They went off. and by a miracle the youthful eX- perimenter escaped with his life.
 Dr. R. w. Craig was instantly sum that the boy had sustained various painful flesh wounds. but that he was not seriously injured.

SMALL FARMS OF PORTUGAL
Their Division Into plmlnutlvs Por-
tons Duo to survival Of Anti.
quAted System,

The Portuguese are an extremely
conservative people. Every man fol-
lows rigidly the methods employed by
his father and forefathers. In very
many parts Of the country the old
wooden plows are still used.
When a man dies, instead of one
of the heirs taking the whole property.
and paying the remaining heirs for
their parts the whole property is d.
vided into as many parts as there are
heirs. More than this. each separate
part of the property is thus divided.
Thus II property consists of 10
acres of pasture land. 80 OF vineyard
and 10 of grain land and there were
10 heirs, each heir would receive one
acre each Of grain and pasture land
and eight acres Of vineyard. This
process has been going on for very
long time. SO that now in the most
fertile part Of Portugal the land is
divided into incredibly small portions.
The immediate result of this is that
the product of the land is barely sui.
ticient at best to sustain its owners.
South of the river Tagus. ON the other
hand, there are enormous tracts OF
excellent land lying unused, but It has
been found impossible to induce the
farmers Of the north to move into this
region and take up large holdings.

Many Reasons Advanced Justify!no
Advice to Lonely Man 70
Marry q Widow.

Passing from these higher emotions
Of the soul. there remain many and
numerous practical reasons for marry
ing a widow. says q writer IN the
Washington Post. In the first place
she knows man, all his little weak
nesses and foibles. She makes allow
ances for them, and even INDUCES the
poor fellow in his more harmless fol-
lies. Just as the experienced trainer
from time to time gives the colt the
rein. There is wisdom in this that
the young thing Just graduated from
an unbroken course OF ice cream, soda
water and theater parties might well
desire to possess; it would save many
rude shock in beginning the stern
realities of married existence. Another
thing, she can cook. No. / may have
lived to eat the faky biscuit and I'M
Improbable pastry Of her making, but
1t is doubtful whether he was ever
able to enjoy them. BY the time she
had mastered the art his indiEestion
had become irreparably damaged; he
could only look and long and return
to dry toast and tea. In thousand
little ways the second husband was
the beneficiary and could truthfully
acknowledge that dear Johns loss was
his own great gain. All Of the testi-
mony, however, is not of this charac-
ter. Marriage is lottery at best, and
one may draw blank In picking q
widow just as easily as through the
choice of an untried mate,
