When Brush struck the ranch he
had a desire to ride little about the
surrounding country to see what II
looked like. so the most gentle
horse in the bunch was called in and
saddled and horse and rider started
off. The horse was gentle, as said
before.
"While you're about IT," said Ad-
ans. better run down to the store
and bring home some eggs"
You're on" replied Brush.
The rest of the story Is told after
this fashion: Say, fellows, did ever
tell you the time 1 rode a bucker
home with a basket OF eggs?"

SO Brush begins at was this way.
The horse was the widest horse on
the American continent and l doubt
il there are any after its kind in Eu-

eggs above my head and let 'er buck.

DUMB, BUT HE CALLED
HER NAMES. WIFE SAYS

New York.-Neighbors knew moth
ing of the family dissensions of Rich
ard Dauks and his wife of Flushing
because they are deaf mutes.
When their case was called in the
police court, the wife having got a
summons against her husband, and
there was no answer, the court de-
Clared the case dismissed. until Com
plant Clerk Magee informed him
Dauks and his wife could neither
speak nor hear.
Then his honor stared in some mys-
tification at the complaint which
charged the husband with having
called his wife vile and insulting
names" F. S. Thomanon, an in
structor in the sign language, acted
as interpreter for the couple and
their three children-handsom
youngsters but afflicted as their par
ents are The oldest boy testified
with his fingers against his father.
Dauks wrote a note to the judge
in which he said the whole trouble
arose because his wife had a board
er in the house. His honor suggested
Mrs. Dauks to get rid of the boarder,
but with swift gestures she replied
through the interpreter she would far
rather get rid of her husband
The boarder, it appeared, was also
deaf mute. She said the boader
was kind to the children and her hus-
band was not. The magistrate sent
them home with instructions to adjust
their own difficulties.

Yonkcrs Doctors Succeed in RestOr-

Cerebral Tissue.

New York.-Surgeons at st. Jo-

nounced that John Martin, whose skull
was badly fractured, is recovering
and will live with part of his brain
missing.
Martin Is % years old. He was
found unconscious on the New York
Central tracks four weeks ago. His
skull was badly mashed in at the
forehead. DR.. Menrelsohn and DR..
Lopez, who operated upon him,
found that several bits of brain It's

lost through the opening in the skull.
They did not believe he could live

his senses for a few minutes at long
intervals. His condition has steadily
improved during the past three days,
and he Is now conscious most of the

His mind Is somewhat affected, but
the doctors believe the defect is only
temporary. His principal fault is
lack of memory, which he will regain
when he RECEIVERS his strength, the
doctors say. Martin says that some.

To keep your goal In sight,

The man at the circus, or one OF the
men at the circus, usually does some
fancy stunt like balancing a street
car OF other light weight implement,
on his right foot while lying on his
back In folding bed arrangement,
and by thus doing wins the plaudits OF
the multitude. II really Is not a diff
ficult feat when one comes to anal
yze it--that Is, II Is not difficult when
taken in comparison with some other
things that happen in every day life.
Take the ride OF II. J. Brush for In
stance. Brush does not pretend to
be a juggler or rider or anything
of that nature though he has juggled
freight. Brush Is local interstate
freight inspector. He is well known
in Pendleton being secretary OF the
Royal and Imperative Order OF Moose
which Is no relation OF the DLsroyal
Order Of Bull Moose OF which t. X.
is president and high chief priest.
Brush Is modest about his accom-
plishments and really told the fore
going story about himself while not
thinking there was anybody around
who would have dared to repeat IT,
II Is apropos OF the Roundup.
Brush discovered about month
ago that ne was getting kinks in his
spinal column and curves In his
shoulders and spots before his eyes.
He didn't eat the good old hash with
the relish he was wont to do. HIS
oats didn't agree with him. as II
were, or as one might say, and, this
story being cayusey anyway, oats Is
"A good word to use.
When one gets to feeling this way
there Is only one thing to do-go
back to nature. SO Brush decided he
would take n few days and travel or
10 Camas Prairie where the coyote
howls and the cows range the wilds
and the untamed grasshopper turks
about to find what ii can eat.
He was accompanied by Clarence
Adams, a travelling bag and n de-
termination to have a good time. Ad-
ans has n herd of cattle grazing up
on a thousand hills in that vicinity,
and also some good specimens of
horse flesh. Among the latter are
some unrideable animals; beasts that
have known OF freedom so long as to
be Of a mind Of their own when 1t
comes to deciding what they want to
DO And generally they know what
they want to door better still what
they do not want to do, and usually
except when some dashing buckaroo
comes along and really rides one OF
them. they succeed pretty regularly In
CARRYING out their own wishes.

You have forty head of horses
To curry night and morn,
And you doctor sore shoulders
Till you're sorry you were born.
And when you're through, you're
ready
For the realm where sinners dwell,
For you're at the gates of He'll, boys,
You're at the gates of He'll.
And when you hit your blankets
And you're dead tired for sure,
While the gentle evening zephyrs
Watt the odor of manure.
Then from far out in the blackness
Comes a coyotes dismal yell.
Like a tortured soul in He'll boys,
A tortured soul in He'll.
AS you sink into a slumber
With a troubled, weary sigh,
Comes a troupe of blissful visions,
Ghosts of happy days gone by.
And strains of linked sweetness
Softly through your slumber swell,
It's the passage into He'll, boys,
The passage into Hell.
For you've scarcely closed your
peppers
And forgot your world of care.
Than a most ungodly "Oh-h-h boys
Breaks the silent morning air.
And you've reached your destination,
When you hear the boss's yell,
For that's what l call He'll, boys,
That's what | call He'll.

WHY COOL WEATHER
In AUGUST DAYS
What the Weather Man MIaht Tell
You IT You Asked Hin
About It.

The weather continues remarkably
cool for August and many curious per-
sons are wondering why. Mr.. Gose-
wisch, the government weather edi.
tor at Keokuk, was not seen today
because it was not necessary to see
him, and if he had been seen and
asked the direct question as to why
the weather is so cool these August
days he probably would have answer.
ed substantially in about these words:
I'VE know not why, but If you in
sist on an answer, 1t is somewhat
this way.
"The cool weather Keokuk has en-.
joyed has been coincident with high
pressure area to the northeast.
winds travel in the same direction
as the hands Of a clock. When the
high pressure area is to the north we
get northerly winds, making for cool
weather.
This condition has obtained for the
past several days. When the high
pressure area has moved to the east
and south we will get southern winds.
That will mean rise in tempera-
ture."
Mr.. Gosewisch would also tell you
on further Interrogation that the
cause of the high pressure area has
never been determined satisfactorily,
but that it is known that cool weather
makes its appearance with high pres
sure areas in the north.
When the high area pressure shifts
to the south Keokuk gets hot spell.
The weather this afternoon felt as
If the winds were shifting and that
the normal August temperature was
returning.
