An ingenius little device for spin

however. If the top can be spun any
better than the average small boy can
do by carefully winding his cord up

Of the top and a spindle projecting

BEST TO PROVE ALL THINGS
Experience Teaches That II Is Well
to Experiment With Matters
Contrary to Belief.

Whenever you read or hear anything
that is contrary to your experience or
belief 1t is always Just as we'll to try
1t. If it is within your reach. before
you repeat 1t to your friends. because
II they know 1t is not true they may
laugh at your credulity and you will
get reputation for being either un-
reliable or gullible.
Some years ago there was a para
graph going the rounds of the papers
and magazines saying that any boy
who wanted to cut glass and did not
own a glaciers diamond could cut 1t
with pair of stout scissors If he was
careful to hold the glass and the scis-
sors completely under water. The
same thing is still to be found in some
of the books on scientific experiments
The reason alleged was that it is
the vibration Of the glass that skaters
1t, but that when both the glass and
the scissors were held completely un-
der water the water stopped this vibra-
ton. That this Is not true any boy
could have found out In FIVE minutes
by trying the experiment with an old
negative. Glass and marble have to
be cut in the same way. by making
slight crack on one surface and then
breaking it.

GRAIN MAN VICTIM OF
CRATER WHO SETTLES
DEBT WITH PROCEEDS
Secures Advance On Phantom
Wheat and Money Is Spent
For Useful Purposes.

Mitchell, S. D.. Feb. PA smooth
game OF obtaining money under false
pretenses was operated by Louie Holm,
who resides at Alexandria. on a grain
buyer at Emery.
Holm represented 10 h Emery
grain man that he lived a few miles
south of that place and that his name
was Nolt. He said that he had 1000
bushels OF wheat to sell and wanted a
price on the grain. After making q
price that Nolt accepted, he asked the
grain buyer to advance him $3.50, as
he needed some ready money. The
grain buyer was accommodating n
issued a grain check, which Nolt
cashed. On his way home to AleXan-
dria Mott bought a pony for SITS, and
at Alexandria bought clothes, a watch,
etc, aside from paying up q few small
debts. He deposited SEQ in the bank
as the rest of his money. The Emery
grain buyer commenced to get suspi-
cious and t~elephoned Sheriff Gordon.
Later the grain buyer identified his
man and Nolt was recognized as Holm.
AT his preliminary examination Holm
was bound over to tho circuit court in
$1,000. Holm, it is thought, is the same
party who made q raise of 5000 from a
grain buyer at Ethan on the same kind
of q proposition.
