COURTESY OF THE ROAD

Mrs E. l.. Blackburn and little
daughter, of the Henry district,
had a miraculous escape from ser
ious injury last Monday after
noon as they were returning home
from town. Mrs. Blackburn was
in a top buggy, driving a single
horse and was accompanied by
her little eight-year-old daugh-
ter. When they reached the
long narrow grade on the wagon
road, near the Henry school
house. no teams or vehicles being
in sight, they started across.
When about midway over the
grade they were surprised to see
an automobile coming toward
them and when they saw that it
had not stopped before coming
onto the grade and that they
would have to pass on this mar
row embankment, Mrs. Blackburn,
realizing that she would be unable
to control her horse with the
lines, jumped out and ran to its
head. She says the machine came
on at Il rapid rate, not stopping
until after it had passed and after
her horse had plunged over the
cmbankment, overturning the
buggy and throwing the little
girl out into the mud. Messrs.
Kaufman and McBurney, the oc
cupants of the machine, then
came back and assisted her in
catching her horse, righting her
buggy, which was badly broken,
and gathering up her belongings
She started on but had driven
but hundred yards or so when
one of the hind wheels of the
buggy gave way and the horse
still frightened from its eXper
ience with the automobile, agair
became unmanageable and RAJ
away. Mrs. Blackburn and little
girl jumped out and were so for
tunate as to again escape serious
injury, being able TO walk home
distance of about mile.
1t has been rule of the road
since the construction of the
grade through this allali basin
that the first vehicle ON the
grade was entitled to the right o
way and this is the first instance
of its violation that has come t.
our attention. The grade is 81
narrow that it is extremely dan
gerous to attempt to pass a rit
upon it even under the most fav
orable conditions, and surely al
automobile drivers shuld be con
siderate enough of the right
OF others to give them a chance
to get across in safety. The auto
mobile has no more right to tn
road than the farmer vehicle
There is room for both if eacl
will respect the right" Of tn
other.-Alamosa Courier.

Enterprising Cigar Dealer
Keeps the Public Guess
ing All the Time.

There is no more enterprising
business man in the city than Ben
Levy, the popular West pike street
cigar merchant. He came here
eight years ago and entered at once
into active business, bringing with
1t real ush, and it was not long un-
It'll he was at the front, where he
has remained every since. In
some respects he is ahead of the
procession.
Mr.. Levy used novel methods OF
advertising in addition to newspa-
per advertisements, among which
are signs OF which he is the in
ventor. First he placed ticking
sign in his display window, which
attracted much attention and there
we're many who wondered where
the ticking was and how it was
done. Later he surprised the pub
fic with another sign known as
the rocker, for movement. The
public wondered again. He did not
stop at that as a little later on he
had a new sign in the window. near
ing perpetual motion. The pubic
marveIled again. NAnd now he has
the public guessing again with a
new electric sign that reflects on
the pavement in front of his store
At present this new sign at night
throws the following words on the
pavement. and every one who passes
turns and rubbers:
"Levy's 382-5 ct. cigar will
please you"
The reflection Is so artfully and
mysteriously made that an eminent
attorney stopped and studied fully
five minutes Friday night before
Figuring" it out. Levy is genius
and hustler.

When the Government attempts TO

raised prices to consumers 1t may be
confronted not only by the statistics
given above but also by an excerpt
taken from the special report on SUI
gar recently issued by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. which says: .
"a comparison of the price of sugar
with that of other food products Is
suggestive. In the general public
agitation concerning the cost OF food
products no mention Is made of SUI
gar. The cost of sugar to the con-
sumner has remained practically sta
tionary for the last ten years. In that
time prices OF many things have
doubled and all have materially ad-
vanced. As the cost of labor enters
largely into the expense Of sugar pro-
duction, this industry must have
shared with the disadvantages of a
rising scale of wages"
