Automobile Notes

e. D. Fisher. local agent for the
Wayerly Electric, with offices in the
Best building, predicts that the sea-
son of 1912 will be a big year in
the automobile business. He plans
to make a strong sales campaign the
coming season.
Horst & Strieter are the first
agents of the Moline in the tri-cities
and will have as their territory Rock
Island county, ILL.,, and Scott county,
Iowa. The Moline has never devoted
attention to the local sale in the
past, but the worth of this line as
well as the General Motors company
trucks give the local firm bright
future.

H. H. Derrough, manager of the
automobile department of the Scott
County Mercantile company in Dav-

present season. The Maxwell spe-
cial is sold exclusively by the Scott
County Mercantile company. The
1912 Maxwell, with the new Colum-
bia radiator and bonnet, and straight
line, flush side, body design, is not
lacking in style and finish and ranks
with the leaders in this respect.
There are a number of distinctive
features in Maxwell design to which

United States Steel corporation mine,

was turned back on .telegraphic Or
ders from Washington and another
car was started from Pittsburg. The
first car reached here shortly after
noon and the experts Immediately
conceded that all in the mine were
dead.
State mine inspectors promptly or
ganized rescue parties and began the
exploration of the mine, AS the gases
were cleared out by the fans they
began searching of the lower levels
and Immediately began to come upon
miners; killed almost instantly.
Volunteers at Work.
Other mines nearby sent experienc-
ed foremen to lead hundreds of volun-
teer rescuers, who f1ocked to the scene
as the news spread about the country
side.
The usual scenes of horror and
grief which attend mine disasters
were lacking here today. No families
of the miners crowded about the
mouth of the mine. Women have kept
within their homes, overcome with
grief and distraction.
The mine was inspected last Friday
and was pronounced safe. The pre-
liminary Investigations today have not
divulged the cause Of the explosion.
Some local mine men are inclined to
regard it as a physical phenomenon.
Barometers in this vicinity have been
showing usually low readings for the
last week without the usual atmos-
pheric conditions.
The families of the dead men find
themselves in sore straits. Work has
been very slack at the mine. Outside
aid will be asked.

all know, to decide when it is best to
talk and when to listen. In the pres.
eh1e of men and women of superior
talents and accomplishments, or OF
wide experience of the world, we must
be wary and not let our vanity run
away with us. To such persons we
may not be able to afford intellectual,
stimulus, and therefore it will be we'll
to avoid giving giving our opinions at
length, unless these are called for
With men and women of small talent
and accomplishment we must also
be on our guard, lest they find us di.

generous disposition who like to
draw out the talents of others, that

CHAPTER xI.

Unable to control herself any
longer, Annie broke down completely
and burst into tears. When the door
opened and she saw her husband led
away, pale and trembling, between
those two burly policemen, it was as
if all she cared for ON earth had
gone out of her life forever. Capt
Clinton laid his hand gently on her
shoulder. With more sympathy in his
face than was his custom to display,
he said:
Now, little woman-'tain't no kind
of use carrying on like that! If you
want to help your husband and get
him out of his trouble you want to
get busy. Sitting there crying your
eyes out won't do him any good"
Annie threw up her head. Her eyes
were red, but they were dry now. Her
face was set and determined. The
captain was right. Only foolish wom-
en- weep and wall when misfortune
knocks at their door. The right sort
of women go bravely out and make a
fight for liberty and honor. Howard
was innocent. She was convinced OF

sion is to prevent skin troubles. For
more than generation its delicate

more than that of ordinary toilet

HEALTH FOR THE CHILD.

The careful mother, watching close
ly the physical peculiarities Of her
children, soon learns that health is In
q great measure dependent upon nor
NAL, healthy, regular bowel action.
When the bowels are inactive, loss of
appetite, restlessness during sleep, ir.
ritability and a dozen and one similar
evidences Of physical disorder are soon
apparent.
Keep the bowels free and clear and
good health is assured. At the first
sign of constipation give the child a
teaspoonful of DIR. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin at bedtime and repeat the
dose the following night, If necessary.
You will find the child will quickly re-
cover Its accustomed good spirits, and
eat and sleep normally.
DR.. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin is far
preferable to salts, cathartics and
purgative waters which are harsh in
their action. Syrup Pepsin acts on
the bowels easily and naturally, yet
positively, and causes no gripping or
discomfort. It's tonic properties build
up the stomach, liver and bowels, re-
storing their normal condition.
Druggists everywhere sell DIR. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in SOC and $1.0o

market. In sentencing Fink, Judge Deuel.

Clinton turned to look at Annie, who
had been waiting patiently in the
background. Her anguish on seeing
Towards condition was unspeakable.
1t was only with difficulty that she re-
strained herself from crying out and
rushing to his side. But these stern,
uniformed men intimidated her. 1t
seemed to her that Howard was on
trial-a prisoner-perhaps his life was
in danger. What could he have done?
OF course, he was innocent, whatever
the charge was. He wouldn't harm a
| fly. She was sure of that. But every
one looked so grave, and there was a
big crowd gathered in front of the
hotel when she came up. She thought
she had heard the terrible word "mur-
der" but surely there was some mis-
take. Seeing Capt. Clinton turn in
her direction, she darted eagerly for
ward

not caught the back of chair she
would have fallen.

in low tone, said:
Quick! Get him over to the sta
ton. We don't want any family
scenes here"
Manacled to Officer Delaney and
escorted on the other side by Ma
loney, Howard made his way toward
the door. Just as he reached it he
caught sight of his wife who, with
tears streaming down her cheeks,
was watching him as if in a dream.
To her it seemed like some hideous
nightmare from which both would
soon awaken. Howard recognized
her, yet seemed too dazed to wonder
how she came there. He simply
blurted out as he passed:
Something's happened, Annie, dear
I-Underwood-I don't quite know"
The policemen pushed him through
the door, which closed behind him.

Shot With 4 Knife.

Years ago in a stock performance of
a famous old melodrama, the villain.
Charles Wolcott, suddenly discovered
that he had left his revolver in the
dressing room. In much confusion, he
fumbled in his pocket and found a
penknife which. he figured, would do
just as well for the bloody deed.

plunging the blade into the hero's
breast, that player failed to change
his lines and screamed at the top of
his voice: Heaven forgive you! I'm
