verge OF physical breakdown. al.
though his lack Of experience Of bodily

door behind him. Bob hesitated
Then he went to Remington's door
He was on the point of entering with

custom. but he paused abruptly and
Knocked.
"Come!" was the curt answer.

Abe Norby, of Sisseton, died at Cal

many years ago Abe stood high in
South Dakota. Wealthy, honored, a
regent of education by appointment
of Gov Crawford, Abe was envied and
petted. He was an ambitious young
man and his ambition proved his I'M
doing. Leaving Sisseton with COM
Portable fortune he went to Minneap-
oils and engaged in the grain COM
mission business. The commission
business got little tame for Abe and
he began to speculate, sometimes with
success, but anyway the end came.
Abe was a bull on the wheat market
a year ago but it wasn't bull cam.
paign year and the bears got him.
Norby lost every penny he had and
carried some friends to the brink with
him. He left Minneapolis and wan
dered over the land until death claim

bright future, but he couldn't quite
beat the game and when things went
wrong the world said he hadn't be-
haved just right, but perhaps death

The statistics which show this rec
ord, are excellent argument for the
placing of lightning rods among the
greatest fire protective devices. Light,
ming losses were formerly considered
not preventable, but this record places
them in the category of the criminal
match. The statistics gathered also
show heavy losses on cattle killed from
contact with fences struck by light
ming, which demonstrates the neces-
sity of grounding wire fences on all
