WOMAN A REAL
MOVIE HEROINE
stops Train and Rescues Man who
Was Thrown on Tracks When
He Touched Live Wire.

INDIANAPOLIS. July 1O.-Julius r.
Farmer OF this city was in jeopardy
twice in 10 minutes and twice saved
from death here Wednesday a woman
playing the part OF heroine in true
melodramatic style by tagging a Big
Four train with her apron.
Farmer. who is light trimmer for
the indianapolis Light & Heat Co. was
going his rounds when he found a
cable. carrying 5000 volts snapped in
two by the storm Tuesday night He
started 10 throw one end up on pole.
despite the protests OF Mrs. Anna
Schultz. near whose home the wire
was broken.
I'll take hold Of IL by the insula-
IF some child should touch that IL
would be certain death -"
At that instant Farmers talk was
cut short by the shock and he was
hurled 20 feet TO the Big Four tracks
Mrs Schultz saw the train bearing
down on Farmer and waving her
apron as she ran, rolled the man off
the tracks just as the train came 10
a stop.
Another neighbOr. attracted by Mrs.
Schultz's scream, ran for a doctor and
by the time the police arrived, Farmer
was able TO sit up. He refused TO be
taken To a hospital.
I've got a horse and buggy down
IN the next block" said Farmer, land
] guess I'll drive that home"
A bandaged little finger. which was
burned. was the only sign TO show
for his experience. He returned to
work later in the day.

BALKAN SITUATION
Is A MERRY PUZZLE
One Correspondent Reports Numer-
Gus Battles While Other
Says All is Quiet.

LONDON. July 10.-Out OF the
weller of conflicting stories from the
Balkans battlefields il is almost i'm
possible to sift the truth. This was
markedly illustrated Wednesday
night, a dispatch from the Daily
Telegraph correspondent at Uskup.
dated Tuesday night, reporting that
there had hardly been any fighting in
the last few days while Belgrade dis
patches reported further Servian vic
tories, the latest advices from the
Servian capital asserting that all the
Bulgarians who had invaded Servia
had been driven back across the
frontier.
There seems TO be little doubt that
Gen. IvanOff's army is steadily retir-
ing before the victorious Greeks,
and il is reported that the Bulgarians
have evacuated Kavala, where the
Greek fleet is operating and Dede-
Catch.

WATERBOUND MACAOAM
 ROADS GOOD NO LONGER
New Conditions Have Made Them Useless and Further Construc-
 ton IS Waste of Fund.

"WaterbOund macadam roads, which for practically q century have been adequate for the traffic have now, under the neV. conditions. become ob- solete and their further construc- ton means a serious waste of pub lie funds" ie the opinion of former President Lewis R. Speare, of the American Automobile association.
 "Macadam may answer for side roads and cross roads where there is little travel to wear the surface into dust and few fast moving vehicles to throw the dust into the air to be blown away. But for main roads anywhere and everywhere method of construction must be put in opera tion which will produce durable roads
 "Whcrever it can be used concrete makes q most excellent road. or a road base, for some other kind of surface. The state of California has adopted concrete construction for practically it. entire system of state highways, after a most thorough in Vestigation. Wayne county. Michigan, has been building concrete roads for the past five years. and they have given most excellent satisfaction.
 Before the Wayne county authori- ties had learned by experience how to build concrete roads with eXpan- sion joints to prevent the concrete from cracking in cold weather and bucklng in the hot sun, several miles Of roads WereI built which broke into frequent cracks. To repair these cracked sections of road they poured hot bituminOUs material into the cracks and covered them with sand. This was worn 10 the level of the concrete and the whole forms q most delightfully."- smooth road to travel over. and one which looks as if it would stand for a generation at least.
 Tn some sections of the country the concrete is being used as d base, and two or three inches of broken stone. mixed with bituminous ma terials, put on for surface. If properly built this kind of road should be very durable, and should justify the additional expense. The concrete will furnish the strength required to hold up the loads which are constantly growing heavier. while the btumenized surface will pre- vent the creation of dust, making the road pleasant to travel over.
 The only proper way to figure on the cost of road, is to consider both the original cost and the expense of for d period of ten or fifteen years Under present condi- tions of travel a macadam road would have to be resurfaced every two or three years and would be in bad condition tWo-thirds of the time. The aggregate cost would be far greater than that of concrete road with bituminoGs surface and the latter would present a good ro9d all the lime

WHY !MEN FAIL

Fear is the rock on which we
split, and hate is the shoal on which
many a bark is stranded.
When we are fearful, the judg-
ment is as unreliable as the compass
Of ship whose hold is full Of iron
ore. When we hate we have un-
shipped the rudder And if we
stop to mediate on what the eossips
say of US, we have allowed a hawser
to befoul the screw.
Keep your mind on.the great and
splendid thing you would like to do,
and then, as the days 90 gliding by,
you will find yourself unconsciously
seizine upon the opportunities that
are required for the fulflment
of your desire, just as the coral
insect takes from the running tide
the elements that II needs
Picture in your mind the able,
earnest, useful person you would
like to be, and the thought you hold
is hourly Transforming you into that
particular individual.
Thought Is supreme.
Preserve the right mental attitude
the attitude Of courage, frankness
and good cheer, and all good things
are yours,
We are ruled by our habits. First
we form our habits, then our habits
form us.
We are what we are on account
Of what we have thought, said and
done,
After having done q thing once,
there Is tendency In the brain to
do 1t again,
II continued we Get the habit,
that is we do the thing without
thinking, just as a matter Of course,
Thus does the habit become second

Here's A Fine Lie
you meet,

It was In the commercial room
and the talk had turned to hens,
Talking Of hens" remarked the
American, reminds me Of an old
hen my dad once had on the farm
out In Dakota. She would hatch
out anything from a tennis ball to
lemon, Why, one day she sat on
piece of Ice and Matched out two
quarts Of hot water"
THAT doesn't come up to d club
footed hen my old mother once
had," remarked the Irishman, They
had been feeding her by mistake on
sawdust instead Of oatmeal Well,
sor, she laid twelve eggs and sat on
thin, and when they hotched, be.
gorra, eleven Of the chickens had
wooden legs and the twelfth was q

four hundred years before Christ.
And his answer was you will be
the same kind of people you are to-
day, because this life is a preparation
for tomorrow"
And the man with the crouch
habit, the frown habit, the dope
habit, the booze habit, is on the
creased habit chute, and he himself
is swabbing the slide
Also, there is sort Of general dis
position on the part Of everybody to
give him a push down the road to
Davy Jones locker
In the heart Of all Of us there is a
tendency to pass back everything
that is handed u.s.
If a man smiles, waves his hand
at you as you walk down the street
in the morning, you wave your
hand back and smile In return I'M
consciously, and often one little ex-
perience like this will key for you
the day joyously,
Courtesy, kindness, Goodwill, GEN
erosity, liberality, are all catching,
Nothing Is so contagious as
smile. Try 1t on the first person
you meet.

will thrive on it and pay his board
in manure, besides making meat
for the family, or providing pork
for the market.
Cow peas plowed under add Or
ganic matter to the soil and build
up the soil surely and rapidly.
Yet, how many of our farmers can
afford to sacrifice the yielding value
of their tillage soil by turning under
crop of cow peas? However,
almost the same end can be attain
ed by growing and harvesting the
COW peas and feeding them to the
cattle and hogs, for they will return
to the soil almost the full fertilizing
value of the pea crop. They will
do even better than that, for they
will harvest the crop in addition if
you will let them.
The sheep is another good fertiliz-
ing agency. The droppings of the
sheep have a high fertilizing value.
Few Of our farmers are giving any
attention to sheep, but it would pay
them to raise them Recently
Travelled through the State of Illinois,
and alongside the railroad saw an
immense fertilizer plant, devoted
exclusively to preparing sheep
manure for the market, and adver-
tisine it as of the highest value as a
fertilizer. So if the farmers would
restore or maintain the fertility of
the soil they should above all else
begin to prepare pastures for their
cattle, hogs and sheep, and keep
them up for their value as soil
builders, if nothing else. If tried
out sufficiently it will be startling
and pleasing revelation to many of ,
our farmers, and save them many
dollars in the cost of fertilizers that
would otherwise be necessary to
buy if they would continue to make
good crops
Remember the fact that your soil
is most likely deficient in organic
matter, and that to Oct the best re-
suit" = your farm operations this
d by must be supplied. If
yNAhow a better way, try it. If
not, try this plan.

A Good Thing

through this work mere boys are

produces IS to 80 bushels, ought to
be sufficient evidence that this
work is a good thing for the farm
