1t is necessary that the pioneer be

for himself or his neighbors every

Mr.. S. G. Wood in "Taverns and Turn

of David Knox, by means of "Teame

his hand to odd jobs. He carded and
laid out John Waldo Woods fax one

He seems to have made shoes and

neighbors. For Enos LOOMS young

First Living Creatures.

The first organized living forms are
extremely minute, and can only be
recognized by powerful microscope.
A filtered infusion of hay, allowed to
stand for two or three days, will liter
ally swarm with living things, many of
them not exceeding the forty-thou-
sandth part of an inch in diameter.
And yet, minute as these |animalculae
are, they are thoroughly alive. They
dart about and digest, shooting out
their jelly-like substance to seize their
food. The way in which these living
things began is as great mystery,
however, as it was when the mind of
man first applied itself to the task of
investigating the subject. The moment
when something that was lifeless be-
came alive was the most wonderful in
ali the history of the planet, but how
the thing came about nobody knows.

GIRL is The HEROINE
OF A MONTANA MISHAP
DIGS A DRIVER OUT OF SNOW.
DRIFT AND THEN FALLS
IN A FAINT.

Helena, Mont.-Mary Smith, a 10
year-old Carbon county girl, proved
that she is a heroine in a recent eXpe-
rience and, incidentally, one of the
most unusual straw-ride spills ever re
ported in southern Montana happened
the other night on the highroad be-
tween Washoe and Bear creek.
There was a dance at Bear creek
and several couples started from Wa
shoe, a few miles away, in bobsled
drawn by four horses driven by Clar-
ence Delhi. The snow was deep and
the night was clear, but not illumi-

Suddenly the Party Was PLUNGED Into
a RaVine.

mated by the moon. 1t was hard pull
up the hill, but after that the journey
was resumed with quickened pace,
while the merry company sang and
shouted like children. Suddenly the
party was plunged into a ravine filled
with snow. The horses had missed
the bridge that spans a gully about
Is feet deep. The song was rudely
broken off. The heavy bass and clear,
ringing soprano, with the altos and
tenors, were silenced.
There ensued an exciting scramble.
At least ten of the party were under
the big sled box. They wiggled OFT
and scrambled for high ground The
horses had broken away and were
dashing madly down toward Washoe
The uninjured applied themselves
to the task of assisting those who still
remained beneath the wreckage. Two
women suffered sprains of a slight ma
ture and one man was considerably
bruised about the head. However, all
agreed to walk to Bear Creek and en-
joy the dance. Six couples bored their
way through the snow and reached
the hall where the dane was proceed
ing.
Suddenly one of the company
thought of the driver He had not
been seen since the spill and no one
had thought of him. Immediately a
party was organized and set out to
find Delhi
The jewellers did not think of the
absence Of the little girl who had
started with them and had been res
cued uninjured from the wreck. They
had hastened on to the dance; but not
the little girl She walked few
PAGES, and then, thinking of the dri-
yer, turned back to the scene of the
spill. There, in the bottom of the ra-
vine. 20 feet or more from the sled
box, she saw two heavy boots wiggling
in the snow, soles upward.
The little heroine dug up with her
hands and feet and tugged and
strained every muscle. She worked
heroically and finally succeeded in re-
moving enough snow so that Delhi
could help himself, which he did. He
managed to get out before his breath
was cut off entirely. After he emerged
from his tomb of snow he fell over in
a swoon. The girl rubbed his hands
and slapped his face and the man was
revived Then the girl realizing that
a life had been saved by her own eff
forts, promptly keeled over in faint.
Mr.. Delhi picked her up in his arms
and carried her to Bear Creek, where
assistance was found and the heroine
restored to normal condition.
BY this time the dancers had
learned of the sequel of their spill and
they promptly carried the girl into the
dance hall and showered her with
praise, candy and paper flowers. Clar-
ence Delhi went after his horses and
found them in a corral.
The Washoe party returned home in
another sled. Mr.. Delhi did not drive.

PoIiteness and serviIity.

No one can deny that there is vast
room for improvement in American
politeness, especially in the north. But
politeness and servility are far apart
1t does not take long to tell whether
a man is fawning upon you or merely
using ordinary civility The latter
any man has a right to expect. But
none but self-satisied prig expects
others to be servile or will tolerate
that quality when he finds it.

A DisraeIi Story.

There is a good story of Disraeli in
his Aylesbury days. He was speaking
from the balcony of the George hotel
to a great crowd in the market square,
when a cattle dealer shouted: Speak
up, Dizzy" To which the great man
made answer: Were my voice as
loud as thunder and my words as
sharp as fiints, my sayings would
never penetrate the thick skull of my
radical friend, John Ivaats"
