 Were you scared, Shed?' asked Dad dy Wfdeman.
 "Scared?'' and Shed sat up with lurch, much incensed at the foolish question. "Scared, eff I warn't scared, dey ain't no nigger never ben scared.
 Perhaps the thing would have dropped then if Patrol Driver John Palmer hadn' come in about that time. He had been to the show and was off duty. He heard the laughing and found out the reason why, joining in readily. John drew a chair up to the stove and thrust his hands out. shivering.
 Pretty cold tonight. eh Mir. Evans Say, have you fixed that lock on the Jail door yet?' he asked.
 No" replied the warden. HI was wait ing for you. You know that you said you would If you have time now. can't you get wrench and fix 1t? Won't take a minute"
 Might as well. Let me see, where did nut that wrench last?' John got up and looked carefully for the. missing article. Shed in his unfortunate chair, watched the proceedings carefully, and seeing that John was not successful, slipped from his chair and began edging softly towards the door. But he was too late.

POISON MAKES THE GENIUS
Professor Claims Brain Is Stronger as
 Body Decays

From the Chicago Record Herald
 Poison and disease foster genius. They Inspire poets authors, statesmen and in- ventors to the height of achievement
 Such is the discovery of pr. Charles B. Reed professor in the medical school of Northwestern university.
 Scores of examples are cited by Dr. Reed to prove his assertion. His list of men whose intellectually, he claims, was thus stimulated to briliancy includes names prominent in literature and art
 Such masterpieces as Milton's Para disc Lost and De Maupassant' Pierre ct Jean would not have been created had their authors relied upon their normal forces, he contends Such poisons as ether and strychnine, arsenic alcohol, cocaine ehlora and hashish inspired the musings of Poes Raven and created the musi- cal rhythm of Burns Tam O'Shanter's Ride" he declares.sh
 Dr. Reed bases his theory on the fact that the mind, under stress of great emo ton, is easily concentrated upon one thing. Reactions have the same effect He cites history to show that during pe- riods of unusual stress or tension, as from war, grief or love. many minds are emotionally excited and the literary prod uct is increased and improved, as com pared with the product in times of men tai peace and commercial prosperity. He calls such emotions mental system atizers.'

From the Christian Science Monitor.
 Stockholm has the appearance of q beautiful pleasure resort instead of busy commercial city of several hundred thou sand inhabitans.

The visitor is eourteousy shown through a labyrinth of state apartments, suite sue ceeding suite. containing priceless tapes tries marvellous china, pictures and DOT traits. statues, vases and bric-a-brac, the gifts of Napoleon the Great, the third Ma poleon, the Russian Czars the Emperor of Japan and many other notable people. All the rooms have splendidly painted ceilings, heavy crystal candelabra and huge mantelpieces made of Dresden china-a bewildering wilderness of cu- rious and beautiful things which it would take days to explore thoroughly.
 One of the chief pleasures of a sojourn in Stockholm comes from the numerous steamer trips which can be made in a day to some one or other of the many islands lying between the city and the open sea.
 On these islands. divided by narrow , channels of deep, still water, opening out here and there into lake-lke lagoons or wider river-like spaces, and with shores all clothed with pines to the water s edge. the people live their summer life. On the banks are many pretty villas with 7iny landing stages amongst rocks which rise sheer out of fathom deep water. Some of the little islands are joined to larger ones by picturesque bridges, whilst red and white and green restaurants are set about among the pine trees.
 eurpassing all other beauty is the in Hescribable northern twilight with it's wonderful tender blue shot through with glowing pink.

 Meantime, John Palmer, having slammed the back door of the jail office behind him, stepped cautiously ahead.

He looked through the back window of the horse g stall in the fire department and flashed his light down ct the horse, lying In the hay. The animals sides heaved as he snored aloud.

A HORSE ON JOHN
By WILLIAM J. zBINDEN.

Shades of John Henryl Ghosts in the police garage?
 Evening Jail Warden Evans looked at little Shed for quite time, scratching his chin meditatively the while.
 "Yassuh. yassuh," and Shed shook his head wisely, his eyes rolling skywards, "Old John Henry ain't a-gwine to rest so easy. His spirits a-worrin, a-worrin, yassuh, and right there in that garadze whar he died!"
 Shed is black. Some say that the Gre ator got tired before he was through making the negro and then forgot all about him when he started again, and Shed never was finished. Anyway. he isn't over four feet tall And because of this, the little group around the stove in the wardens office Uttered.
 It will be remembered that John Henry was a negro trusty at the city jail who was accidentally shot and fatally wounded by Patrol Driver John Palmer about two months ago in the police garage. He died shortly afterward at the Hillman hos pital Recently the negro trusties about the jail have complained that his spirit has come back to 'hant them.
 It was rather chilly on that evening at about 10:30 o'clock, and Officers Jar rell, Wideman. Ray and Jones were hud died around the hot stove. passing time with the warden before roll call an hour later. It would be best to acauaint our selves with these four, as they played
