rightsto. Last week the three-year-
old granddaughter of Mr.. Helm fell in
a river running close by the old home.
The old man shucked off his coat
jumped into the river and saved the
little girl from drowning. He and
the little girl think old folks are
worth something in way. and they
are right Down here in Virginia
there are Just scores of old fellows
who are doing valiant service long at

wanna county farmer told me not long
ago that at the age of sixty-nine he
was Just beginning to learn how to
farm in good shape, and he is taking
lessons from Sandy and the other farm
demonstrators. Up where Osler lives
there may be an early age limit, but
down here in Old Virginia we know
no age limit. Good WORK, and a lot
OF il, goes right along up to the day
before the funeral. even II that day
hits the eighty or the ninety-year

To the many accommodations
which the people of Meade have,
they may now add another.
Wednesday evening c. S. HUI.
burt who lives mile south of
Meade, made his first trip de-
livering milk. Mr.. Hulburt has
number of first class dairy
cattle and recently erected a
cow-barn which is perfectly san
itary in every respect. 1t is his
intention to supply as many
customers as possible with milk.
This is good move, as it has
been a rather hard matter to
buy milk in Meade for some
time.

been arranged in the interest of
good government and civic right
eousness, and no one should miss
hearing Mr.. Stalls address.
The Union has carried on an
aggressive campaign for law en-
forcement and clean citizenship
for several years and deserves
the support of all good citizens.
Mr.. Stahl is pioneer Kansan,
and has been a leader in temper
ance and reform work for many
years. He is perhaps best
known over the state as the Chief
of Police of Topeka, who, few
years ago waged such success
full warfare on the jointists and
law violators of that city From
his wide knowledge of the situa-
ton IN Kansas and the needs of
the work, he will bring us a mes
sage full of vital interest to all.
Come and hear him.

AN EXCITING RIDE.
Gallopins Over a Rough Mountain
Road In the Andes.

hoao IN tne AndcS.
In going over one of the mountain
roads on the way to the crest of the
Andes the traveller has need of steady
nerves. A passage In THE Andean
Land" by G. 5. Osborn. describes the
journey.
The road is narrow and rocky and
rutty and steep, with no walls to
speak of except tunbledown ones that
increase the danger by their false sug-
gestion of safety, and in one place the
wagon would fall 1000 feet IL 1t
should roll Off the edge of the noun
tain.
The road has no graceful sweeps or
round, easy curves as 1t takes It's way
up the titanic heights. but rather 1t
zigZags like the teeth OF a saw, ascend
ing In short stretches and doubling
back at sharply acute angles. leaving
very little room for team and wagon
to turn in when driven slowly and
carefully and two abreast
Now, imagine, II you can, the horses
driven madly in a gallop, no trot-that
would be slow-but In quick, short.
jerky jumps, such as the mustang-like
animals would make under the saddle
when pressed
The short, high coach follows the
cavorting horses, jerking, careening
and springing like small boat sail
ing In wildly choppy sea. You per
ceive that the wheels are strong and
the springs, too, and the whole rig EVIL
IDENTIFY intended for chariot racing.
| The driver groans. yells, whistles
shrilly, cracks his thick rawhide whip,
lashes his horses and does everything
he knows that will inspire fear and
induce speed. All this you become ac-
customed to in measure on your
dash up the narrow road dug into and
blown out of the giant ribs of the tow
ering mountains.
