Bicycle Bumps Auto.

Charley Helmandoller was
painfully injured last Sunday
morning in a collision with an
automobile at Grafton. Charles
was returning, from an inspec-
ton of Burke's Garden road,
and as he came down the noun
tain he lost control of his bicycle.
Rounding the curve at CoX's
store Charles noticed an auto in
the road, and gave it an awful
bump, and when he gathered
himself up his wheel was all
"out of commission and he was
all messed up" but the auto
was still there. unscathed. He
was brought to town and doctors
were unable to find any broken
bones.
The auto driver, John Abshire,
was detained here Sunday even
ing, while passing through on a
joy ride, by Sheriff Hartman,
and was given a trial before
Magistrate Patton. At the hear
ing Charles assumed all the
blame for the accident. His
testimony was that on first see
ing the auto he yelled at it to
get out of the road, and seeing
it wouldn't do so, Charles let
loose the handle bars. threw
both hands in the air, and abode
the consequences.
The auto party composed

Proper oymnastIe Work.

Every person who has received gym

that an exercise which calls for pain
ful effort on the part of the beginner
is often performed almost without any
conscious effort at all after GER
tain amount of training has been re-
ceived. Again. 1t is perfectly well
known that brute strength alone does
not make a gymnast. and that even a
simple exercise may offer great diff.
ficulty to a muscular and well develop

for this is made plain in an article by
Professor du Bois Raymond in Die

In Jim's case the question did not
imply the confused cropping back 10
sense that It usually indicates. but
rather an actual desire to know
whether or not he was on board the
Jeanne D,Arc. Plainly his wits had
not been badly shattered by his ex-
iperience overheard. But the sailor
who was attending him with such min
istrations as he understood, answered
him with sample of French which
Jim had never met with in his school
books, and he was not enlightened for
some hours.
It was indeed the Jeanne D'Arc,
as Jim proved for himself the
next day, and he was lying In the

morning he felt much better, hungry,
and prepared in his mind for striking
a bargain with one of the sailors for
clothes. He could make out their

would get suit OF clothes and fare

was wearing a sailors blue flannel
shirt and nothing else. He turned over
on his hard bunk. thinking that he
would have to wait a while before
making his entrance on the public

has been kept alive by pumping food
into her stomach through her side. but
now she is beginning, at the age of
fifteen years, to eat food. and for the
first time in that period to know how
food tastes.
When she was two years old, at
Milstadt, she drank lyc and her throat
was so badly burned that 1t adhered
and closed the esophagus.
The girl is now in st. Joscph's hos

At first. silk threads were given her
to chew, and these threads gradually
worked down through the trachea and
in the course of a few weeks 1t was
possible to reach the tissues of her
stomach and treat them.
Then the girl was able to begin to
eat, and the first thing that was given
to her was candy.
