WITHOUT THE DOCTORS AID
Aunt Jane "Just Died by Herself" Be-
fore the Man Of Medicine
Had Arrived.

Like many of the older set Of
southern darkies when the Civil war
closed, Uncle Ephraim and his wife,
Aunt Jane, as they we're familiarly
known, chose to remain with their
former mistress rather than to try
their fortunes elsewhere. Because OF
this fact Mrs. Smith was peculiarly
attached to her former slaves and
saw to it that they stood in need of
none of the ordinary comforts of life.
Sickness, however, had laid hold on
Aunt Jane, and for days Ephraim
had been kept away from the "Big
House" Early one morning, upon
opening the rear door of her home,
Mrs. Smith saw Ephraim approach
ing. Knowing that Aunt Jane had
been sick, she said: "Ephraim, how
is Jane?" "W'y, she's dead" "Eph-
riam, you don't say SO; is she dead p
eyes, yes'm; she's dead" 'When did
she die, Ephraim?" "She died about
midnight last night" "Well, well,
well-did the doctor get there before
she died?" ''No, MN, she jes' died
by herself" -Nationa Monthly.

WoMAN'S LAUGH.

A woman has no natural grace
more bewitching than sweet laugh.
1T is like the sound of flutes OIL the
water; it leaps from her heart in a
clear, sparkling rill, and the heart
that hears it feels as if bathed in the
cool, celebrating spring. How
much we owe to that sweet laugh? 1t
turns the prose of our life into poet
ry; it filings showers of sunshine
over the darksome wood in which we
are travelling; it touches with light
our sleep, which is no more the
image of death, but gemmed with
dreams that are the shadow of i'm
mortality.

IMPORTANCE OF EXAMPLE.

Every life is profession of faith,
and exercises an inevitable and silent
propaganda. AS far as lies in its
power, it tends to transform the uni
verse and humanity into its own
image. Thus we have all a cure Of
souls. Every man is the center of
perpetual radiation like a luminous
body; he is, as it were, beacon
which entices a ship upon the rocks
if it does not guide it into port,
Every man is a priest, even involun-
tarily; his conduct is an unspoken
sermon, which is forever preaching
to others; but there are priests of
Baal, of Moloch, and of all the false
gods. Such is the high Importance
of example.-AmiGPs Journal.

HopssLsss AGE HASN'T cove
Despite Development Of the Automo.
bile, Horcs and Mules Are Far
From Being Displaced.

Something has Len said at one
time and another, half in Jest and
half in earnest, about the coming of
the horseless age, when the self-pro-
PEELED vehicle will have done away
with the horse and mule altogether,
incidentally doing away at the same
time with the house fly. The auto
mobile has made a wonderful devel-
opment in the past ten years, but it
has not displaced the horse, and indi-
cations are that it will not do so for
some time to come. The horse and
mule breeders are reported as look
ing forward to an unprecedented
year in their business. According to
an estimate based on the amount Of
business done up to the present time,
which shows an increase of IL per
cent. over the same period last sea-
son, $1,000 animals are expected to
pass through the Atlanta, Ca, mar
.ket in the year ending next August.
The money value will amount TO
$12,000,000, and it is significant
that this is quite a figure when APP
piled to the automobile business,
while it is only small matter in the
total horse and mule business of the
country. The automobile is going
some," in more senses than one, but
it has not yet displaced the horse and
he mule.

WHEN GAS WAS HIGH.

The first incorporated gas com
pany was the National Light and
Heat company of England, estab-
lished in 1909. In America the
first gas company was Incorporated
in Baltimore in 1916, the second one
in Boston in 1922 and the next one
was the New York Gas Light com
pany, incorporated in 1923. Prior
to 1880 the gas business Of this coun-
try was nominal, but the price prob
ably was responsible for its slow de-
velopment From 1924 to 1923 the
New York Gas Light company sold
gas to consumers at the rate of $40
a thousand cubic feet.-Moody's

The Buzz Wagon Cot Away.

Announcement was made in the
Journal last week that p. Jim Muir
ply had purchased the Mitchell auto.
mobile from a. G. Dyer. Mr.. Muir
ply has had IA lot of experience in
driving bus, but is short whole
lot of experience in running autos.
But Jim won't have to do with any
thing lie owns unless lie can be the
absolute boss. so Mr.. Dyer gave him
Il few lessons rs chauffeur and turned
the machine over to him. Ills first
trip to the Milwaukee depot was one
of profit rs the machine was loaded
with passengers and grips, and there
is only one thing that Jim loves more
than money, and that is more profits,
so he was happy, and was sailing
along fine until he reached the depot.
He shut off the gasoline as the mach
ine neared the platform, but forgot
there was a brake attachment and he
lost hi $ head about he same
time he lost control Of the machine,
and rs the auto was being steered
direct toward the platform he saw
disaster ahead and began to yell
whoa! whoa.. whOn.!! each time Il
little louder, but the pesky thing
was worse than an outlaw bronclo
and paid no heed to his commands and
crashed into the platform smashing
both lamps. Jim walked up town
and got Mr.. Dyer to go down and dis
ent ,ngle the machine from the wreck
ell platform, and now Mr.. Murphy
thinks it will be cheaper to employ an
experienced man TO run the unrully
thing, or at least break it in and
make it tame so lady can drive it,
The Arthur johnson property, next
to the bank, was sold last Saturday
under foreclosure proceedings insti-
tuted by the Minneapolis Brewing
company, which was the purchaser.
Attorney Glen :. Bills acted for the
plaintiff in the case, and there was
not hitch in the pr ceedings. like
all Of the cases he handles. George
Scambler was the original owner Of

about $1,000. lie disposed of his
holdings and bought out Scambler,
but lie was not fitted for Il saloon
keeper and soon became heavily in
volved, the Brewing company being
preferred creditor. Johnson skip

The place has been run for some time
by Willie Il. Frlnger, and the activity

HORSES KILLED
FOR CHAMBERS

Some time ago DR.. II. 4. Dennis,
deputy state veterinarian, was called
to examine horses belonging to Nor
ris Bangsten on his ranch near the
SnOwies, and pronounced the disease
to be CHAMBERS. The horses were plat-
ed in quarantine. This week DR..
Chestney Of Miles City, accompanitd d
by Frank W. Murphy of this city,
went to the Bangsten ranch. and five
OF the quarantined horses were killed
by order of the doctor.
There are Il number of horses i'm
that section that have been exposed
to the disease, and the doctor will go
out again Saturda y and examine the
remainder of the horses that have
been in quarantine, and also some
that have been exposed.
The old timers claim that the dis
ease is not CHAMBERS, but one similar
to it that is prevalent among stock
running on the mountain range dur
ing thewi nter' Mr.. Murphy, who
il an expert with horses and is famil-
lar with their ailments, as well as the
veterinarian, pronounce the disease
as real glanders, for which Il cure has
never been found. When transmit
ted to man, which occasionally hap
pens, is sure death to the unfOrtl-
nate individual who contracts the
disease, having 4 strong resemblance
to leprOsy.

THE FARMER.

be. The first fnrmer was the

ity rests on possession and use
Of land. Men do not like hard
