Sorrento was overcome by the intense
heat of his work and a physician ad-
vised placing ice about his head.
r Eager friends took the advice too
literally and placed large cakes of ice
about his head, neck and limbs. Be-
coming alarmed a few hours later the
young mans family recalled the ply
stefan, who discovered that his pa
tient had been dead some time. Elk
animation showed that too much ice
had actually frozen the man.

 pie Consider 1t a Youthful Mis-

Gosport. Ind.-There has been dis. covered a remedy for the divorce evil It Is a simple but sure cure. Let the Rev. Josiah Burton, a rural dominic llVlng four miles east of Gosport lie the matrimonial Knot beneath the boughs of "Cupid's Beech. Then if ms record holds, all divorce laws may be eliminated from the statutes and no one need go singing: I'm On My Way to Reno" It is the Rev. Josiah burtons proud boast that no divorce court has ever severed a tie he bound.
 The Rev. Josiah Burton has three aitars of matrimony-his little church across the fields, his home and-most romantic of ala grand old beech tree that has been popularly chris tened "Cupid's Beech" because of the marriage ceremonies performed be- meath it's boughs The tree stands at the corner of the fence that surrounds the old minister's home and no mar riage ever solemnized in its shade has ever been shattered by a divorce court.
 The Rev. Josiah Burton is an inter- esting man in an interesting locality. Not only do his matrimonial knots stay tied, but there seems to be some good angel lowering over the hills in which he dwells whose mission is to grant happy old age to all who find a home there. To die under so in the vicinity of "Cupid's Beech" is looked upon as passing away in infancy.

the Carolinas. Among those who came was John Burton, the father of Josiah. In the year ISIS he settled on tract of ground four miles east of Gosport in section now known as Liberty Church neighborhood The country was then sparsely settled and there were only mere bridle paths leading to the few settlements.
 By 1880 the country had become a little more populous end there was talk of establishing church There were many denominations in the neighborhood. and 1t was finally de cided to build church that should be non-denominational but with lean ings toward the Methodist Protestant creed John Burton gave enough ground for the building of a church, and another member of the new or ganization donated ground for ceme. tery adjoining the church.
 On the morning of September 23, 1891, a company of neighbors gath cred at the spot given by John Bur ton as church site. Each carried a broadax The men were divided into two squads. They then went into the forest in search of yellow poplar trees. The giants of the wilderness began to fall and soon the brethren were heWing the trees with that ex. pert swing known only to the pio- neers.
 When dinner time came the church builders sat down to meal such as only old-fashioned cooks could cook All of the food and he dishes were carried to the place by 8 1O-year-old boy. That boy was Josiah Burton and the church was started on his tenth birthday.
 Liberty Church is an interesting type of the old-fashioned meeting house. It is plain room with plain old-fashioned pews. The pulpit was made by a local carpenter and the choir and organ have a slightly eie vated platform to the left of the min ister.
 If there Is one thing that makes the aged minister who presides at Liberty Church happy it is a wedding. He doesn't know how many couples ht has united in marriage. but he has yet to hear of one of them being broken by a divorce decree. Uncle Josiat takes supreme delight in having some couple drive up to the door and cal him out to tie the nuptial knot. It is then that he dons his Prince Alber' and white cravat and puts on hi' most responsible air. In recent years he has had numerous calls for wed dings in the shade of "Cupid's Beech" Providence seems to favo all who are married beneath thai tree" says the minister. 'So come ye!"

SAVED OLD LADY'S HAIR

My mother used to have very bad humor on her head which the doctors called an eczema, and for it had two different doctors. Her head was very sore and her hair nearly all fell out in spite of what they both did. One day her niece came in and they were speaking of how her hair was falling out and the doctors did it no good. She says, Aunt, why don't you try Cutieura Soap and Cutieura Oint- ment?' Mother did and they helped her. In six months time the itching, burning and scalding of her head was over and her hair began growing. To day she feels much in debt to Cuti- cura Soap and Ointment for the fine head of hair she has for an old lady of seventy-four.
 My own case was an eczema in my feet. As soon as the cold weather came my feet would itch and burn and then they would crack open and bleed Then l thought I would flee to my mothers friends, Cutieura Soap and Cutcura Ointment. 1 did for four or five winters. and now my feet are as smooth as any ones.

Why Do They?

Why women like the baldheaded man 1t Is somewhat difficult to define It may be because he appears to be-
 Thoughtful and kind.
 Trustworthy and confiding Whim- sical Past the follies and frlvolties of youth.
 Usually successful.
 A man of property.
 Opinions why women like the bald headed man obtained by the Daily Mirror are as follows:
 He is not silly like young men.
 He accepts refusals of marriage so nicely that one is sorry one did not accept him.
 The bald patch looks so clean and nice. One would like to kiss it.
 A doctor welcomes badness when 1t comes to him, as 1t Is sign of se- dateness and dignified learning, which invariably increases his practise.
