How It Feels to be Run Over.

when was run over,' writes cor
respondent, 81 had not seen the car ap-
preaching. The first thing knew
was that l was on the ground kicking
upward with my legs in an effort to
get from under the car. Then | felt
a wheel going over my chest, which
bent as it passed over In the interven-
ing second or two went through sew
eral minutes worth of feelings. | had
the sensation of establishment at be-
ing on the ground. of wanting to roll
aside and away, of bracing myself
and my chest especially-stiff to resist
something, whatever it might be, while
lightning flash of fear was dimly
there and a subconscious query, What
on earth next? Yet it was hardly fear
because there was no time for such a
durable sensation; it was rather a
sense of being suddenly confronted
with grave reality, of doubtful, OBJ
securely terrible import. London Chron-

Local Paper Good investment.

The late Hon. David Davis once
said: Each year every local paper
gives from 500 to $4,000 in free lines
for the benefit of the community in
which it is located. No other
agency can or will do this. The local
editor in proportion to his means, does
more for his town than any other ten
men, and in fairness, man with man,
he ought to be supported. not because
you happen to like him or admire his
writings; but because local paper is
the best investment a community can
make. 1t may not be brilliant or
crowded with great thoughts, but
financially it is more of benefit to a
community than preacher OR teacher.
Understand us now, we do not mean
morally or intellectually, but financial
ly, and yet on the moral question you
will find the majority of local papers
do the most work for the least money
of any men on earth. Subscribe for
your local paper, not as a charity, but
AS an Investment"

To Teach Tuberculosis Prevention

To Teach tuberculosis Prevention.
Des Moines, Jan. 15.-During the
next three months the billboards of
the United States will display 10000
educational posters on tuberculosis,
according to an announcement made
today by the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis.
This will conclude the campaign be-
gun a year ago, when the National
Billposters' association donated free
space to the tuberculosis cause, the
Poster Printers association offered
free printing, and nine paper manu-
facturers gave the paper for the pos
ters. The combined value of these
several donations for this three-month
campaign is nearly 100000.
Any anti-tuberculosis society in the
United States may receive free of
charge, except for transportation, as
many of these posters as can be hung
on the bill boards in it's territory. They
are feet wide and 9 feet high The
posters show in graphic form how
fresh air, good food and rest cure
tuberculosis; how bald air, overwork
and closed windows lead to consump-
ton; and how the careless consumpt-
i've menaces the health of his family
by splitting on the floor

Blackberries require rich soil. Plant
in fall or early spring in rows 4 by 7
feet, cutting plants to the ground.
Avoid disturbing the roots until plant
is one foot high. When about three
feet high pinch back some to induce
stock and lateral growth. Suckers
should all be held in check and old
wood removed after fruiting. Guilt

As It Goes.

In the corner she's left the mechani.
cal toy,
On the chair is her Teddy bear fine,
The things that thought she would
really enjoy
Don't seem to be quite in her line.
There's the faxen haired doll that is
lovely to see
And really expensively dressed,
Left alone all uncared for, and strange
though it be,
She likes her rag dolly the best.
Oh, the money we spent and the plans
that we laid
And the wonderful things that we
bought!
There are toys that are cunningly
skillfully made
But she seems not to give them a
thought.
She was pleased when she woke and
discovered them there,
But never a one of us guessed,
That it isn't the splendor that makes
gift rare
She likes her rag dolly the best.
There's the flaxen haired doll, with the
real human hair,
There's the Teddy bear left all alone
There's the automobile at the foot of
the stair,
And there's her toy telephone.
We thought they were fine, but lit
tie child's eyes
Look deeper than ours to find charm,
And now she's in bed, and the rag
doll lies
Struggled close in her little white
arm.
