AUTO USED IN BLASTING sTUNIPS
A farmer in northern Wisconsin re-
Gently purchased a motor car and al
most Immediately discovered new
and novel use to which 1t could be
put. 1t seems he had secured a piece
of acreage some distance from his
farm which was thick1y dotted with
stumps. He set out to clear the land
by blasting out the stumps and here
pressed the car into service.
The necessary tools and dynamite
were loaded into the rear section of
the car and with his helpers, the own
er drove to the distant field. The
holes were then drilled for the dyn-
anite sticks, the charges put in place
and wired. The usual method of
blasting stunps is to connect a slow
burning fuse to the charge of powder
or dynamite When all is in readiness
the fuse is lighted with a. match and
takes himself off. This is a rather
the fuse shoulders for SO long a time
that it is considered out and often
fires the blast just as an inspection
Is being made. Results under these
circumstances are not to be desired.
Here the farmer showed considerable
ingenuity, for he wired several stumps
in connection, to be fired simultane-
ous1y. His resourcefulness did not
end here however, for he then utilized
of the necessary electricity to fire the
blasts,

earned her living by doing Homework
after her fathers death.
In other days the Perrys had
been wealthy, but when the father
died it was found that his sole pos
sessions consisted of small tract of
comparatively worthless land in Col
orado.
This by the will was left to the
trust of the aunt whom Eileen had
never seen. The years went by and
the child grew to near womanhood,
still in the servile position which she
had always occupied. One day in rum
maging through some of her fathers
papers she found the information con-
corning the western land and wrote a
letter to her aunt notifying her that
she was now of age, and to sell the
land for whatever she could get for it.
THE letter came back to her mark
ed opened by mistake Eileen be-
lieved her aunt had left the country,
and believing, also, that the land was
worth absolutely nothing, gave up the
quest. She then turned her eyes to-
ward the city. A little later there ap-
peared in the town woman who
made inquiries concerning the girl,
and on learning that she had gone
to Chicago, left the village.
In the meantime Eileen had found
hard work to secure position. Dis
couraged and disheartened, she one

Eileen might see and answer

know exactly what she was going to
do. The land that was once worth
less had shown gold and was pour

How Students Got Fresh Eggs.

An Indianapolis travelling man wit
messed a novel feast by students of De
Paw university at Greencastle the
other day. He said he was at station
in that city, and standing near was a
poultry car loaded with live poultry.
The hens were cackling and carrying
on at a great rate. A crowd of stu
dents stood around the car, and when
ever hen produced nice, new, fresh
egg a student reached his arm through
the side of the car, seized the egg and
made for nearby store, where he
fried it over gas Jet.
There were at least twenty stu
dents around the car" said the travel
ing man, land the hens kept them
busy all the time was there. l don't
know how many eggs the students got,
but it was busy bunch of hens. Just
before my train pulled out heard one
student say to another: Gee, never
ate SO many eggs in my life!' There
was no question about the freshness
of the eggs"
