Do You Want Sale Bills.

The fact that the NEWS office
is recognized by careful business
men as the place to get sale bills,
for the reason, in the first place,
that they are attractive, and in
the second place, the large circu-
lation of the NEWS carries your
sale advertisement into a very
large percentage of the homes in
the County. Week before last
we got out an order for bills for
a farmer, and they were so at
tractive and nifty that he could
MT begin to take care of the
crowds that focked to the sale.
After getting the top price for
every animal, implement, and
article on the bill, the auctioneer
said he just couldn't stop.
The people just clamored for
more. The farmer, in the hope
of driving them away, put up his
mother-in-law. She brought $160
on the hoof. Then he offered his
mortgage for sale. A lifelong
friendship between two old
neighbors was shattered as each
tried to outbid the other. 1t was
finally knocked down to the
richer man who was promptly
knocked down by the poorer.
He sold the weeds along the
roadside. He sold a gold brick
that he bought in Chicago dur
ing the Worlds Fair. He sold
the ruts in the road in front of
his place and then offered to sell
the secret of where he had the
sale bills printed. We cannot
give the results as the returns
are not all in. They are bidding
yet. That's the kind of sale
bills we print. Give US a call.

III You'll Go, I'll Co."

Say that to some friend when
you leave him, Saturday night.
Of course you will mean that you
will go to church Sunday if he
will go too. That's a fine way to
start off. If you are undecided
as to which church to attend, Sc
lect the one your mother used to
go to. You can't go far wrong.
Any fellows mothers religion
ought to be good enough for him.
So next Sunday give up the lazy
hour in bed. Have your best
clothes ready. Put 'em on and
start out with your head up and
your shoulders back. You're do
ing one of the best things you
ever did in your life and if you
keep it up you will never be sor-
ry. And you'll be surprised to
see how good it feels to be in
church. And above all things, if
there is congregational singing,
SING. Don't merely hold the
book and bluff at singing. Fill
up your lungs and let out the mu-
sic. You'll know it, all right.
You may have forgotten he
words but the tune, never. Why
your mother used to sing it! She
will be a happy woman when she
knows that her boy was at
church.

BIGGEST AERIAL
DEATH TOLL
Four French Officers Per
ished in Explosion of Dir !
igibIe Balloon

No single aerial catastrophe has ev-
er taken such toll of human life as the.
tragic accident to Vaniman's airship
at Atlantic City recently. The near
est approach to a similar occurrence
was when the French military dirfg-
ibIe Republique, while travelling from
Paris to Antibes, on September 20,
1909, at a height of 600 feet, exploded
and fell to the ground, killing the four
French officers in the gondola.
Count Zeppelin, the veteran pioneer
of the dirigible balloon, who made his
first dirigible ascent in 1901 at Lake
Constance, has throughout his career
as an airman suffered heavy material
losses, but in all his disasters to his
mammoth air cruisers, not a life has
been lost. His first serious wreck oc-
Cured on August 5, 1908, at Echter-
dingen, when, after memorable
flight, the Zeppelin was struck by a
gust of wind while anchored, explod-
| ed, and was totally destroyed. In
May, 1909, the Zeppelin ii struck q
| tree at Goeppingen and was badly
damaged, but after repairs was able
| to continue her voyage. The same
airship was, however, on April 20,
1910, destroyed in squall.
The Zeppelin airships Deutschland l
was totally wrecked ion her maiden
voyage on June %, 1910, in the Teuto-
Iburg Forest, with twenty passengers
! on board, but none was hurt. The
Zeppelin vi was destroyed while en-
tering her shed at Baden Baden on
Sept. IA, 1910, without fatality. The
| Deutschland II was wrecked on May
l16, 1911, but no one was injured.
The latest accident to a Zeppelin
| balloon occurred on June 28, when
the Schwaben was totally consumed
by fire and explosion at Dusseldorf.
| A number Of soldiers holding the
ropes were injured.
| The British military aviators have
also been unfortunate, their first dirig-
Iible, the Multi Secundus. being wreck
| ed in q gale near London, without ia
tally, on October 10, 1907. Santos
Dumont, who was the first really to
steer balloon, had marvellous es-
cape from death in Paris on August 8,
1901, when his dirigible was destroy
ed. Again on October 10, at Monaco,
his dirigible burst, and he fell into the
sea, but was rescued.
Severe, Frenchman, and his CON-
panion, while making a trial trip in q
new dirigible at Paris on May II, 1902,
were killed by an explosion a quarter
of mile in the air.
Baron Bradsky and his assistant
were killed by their dirigible breaking
up in the air at Pierrefitte, France, on
October Is, 1907

SUN PECULIARLY AFFECTS
YOUNG OFFICER IN NAVY

SAN MATEO, CAL, July 13.-The
case of Horace Walling, Jr., young
naval officer from this city, who was
overcome by heat while in port at
Hayti, is one of the most peculiar with
which medical science has had to deal.
After graduating from Annapolis, Wal
ling's rise in the service was rapid
and he was assigned to. important
duty on the Nashville.
Immediately after his arrival in the
tropics he was stricken and he COM
pletely lost his memory and sense of
motion. He had to be taught to talk
and walk just as a baby. He proved
an apt pupil, and, after four months
of instruction he had regained enough
knowledge to pass high school ex-
animation. Other than the effect on
his mind, the stroke did not affect
Walling, as he still retained his nor
NAL physical condition. He progress
ed as rapidly in athletics as in learn
ing, and he is now able to duplicate
the athletic feats of his days at the
Naval Academy. His mother, Mrs III.
III. WalIing, well-known San Mateo
clubwoman, has gone East to attend
him.

You know the grievances that be-
set your own path, the shadow that
hangs over your own home, the fears,
often groundless, it is true, of i'm
pending calamities that disturb you,
but you cannot lift the curtain that
conceals your neighbors' misfor-
tunes; the door will not swing back
to reveal the skeleton in their clos

every one is loaded as you are; and
every home, however charming to the
outward, has yet within trials as Sc
we're as your own, and heart aches

Home and Happiness.

We are not angels, we are only
men and women, and we share teh
imperfections of manhood and wom-
anhood. We are not perfect apples
we are speckled apples, all of us. |
do not care how deep and sweet and
tender and accordant love may rem
der home life, it cannot but happen
that in the close contact in the every
day openness and disclosure of the
home, our bad points will come out.
No family is made up of perfectly
straight sticks, but crooked ones
and when they are piled together in
the closeness of home life the crook
edness will appear. The man and
woman married the most utterly,
married along the whole line of their
natures, must yet find some point
where there is not complete contact.
