Horse Saved Rider.

Clarence Yeager OF Beverly, N. j..
probably owes his life TO the action of
his horse In unconsciously being the
cause OF rescuing him from an awk-
ward situation early the other morn
ing Yeager was driving along a
lonely road when highwayman
leveled a revolver at him and demand
ed his valuables. AS the highway
man turned the horse halfway around
so there couid be no possible way on
the narrow road for Yeager TO es-
cape. the horse planted his hoof hard
on the mans foot. He screamed and
fell with the pain. Yeager was quick
to seize the opportunity. He turned
the horse around and whipped up and
galloped away. He was without any
kind OF weapon.

POOR AS A CHURCH MOUSE

Saying Has More Meaning Than

The sexton Of fashionable New

large mound the bright purple, red
and yellow discs of confetti which lit
sered the church entrance and steps.
This month";" he said, Il have had
already IS weddings in my church.
And at every one of these weddings
paper confetti was thrown at the
bride instead of rice.
THE confetti fashion is very well

used our churches were overrun with

Did you hate my father so much that,

aside the arm. "Who knows about

Mrs. Chedsoye was pale, and the ar
tistic touch of rouge upon her cheeks
did not disguise the pallor. The true
evidence lay in the whiteness of her
nose Never in her varied life had
she felt more helpless, more impotent.
To be wild with rage, and yet to be
powerless! That alertness of mind,
that mental buoyancy, which had al
ways given her the power to return

Moreover, she was distinctly alarmed.
This little fool, with a turn of her
hand, might send tottering into ruins

to gain time to regather her scattered
thoughts.

Anger was first to reorganize it's
forces; and Mrs. Chedsoye felt the
heat of it run through her veins. But,
oddly enough, it was anger directed
less toward the child than toward her
own palpable folly and oversight.

Mrs. Chedsoye inspected her rings.
Meanwhile, George directed his
driver to go post-haste to the English
Bar. That he found it more or less
of dive in nowise alarmed him. He
had been in places of more frightful
aspect. AS Ryanne had written him
to make inquiries of the barmaid rela-
tive to finding him, he did so. She
jerked her head toward the door at
