 "A blessing" he said. angrily. ''you call it blooming blessing to be locked up for twenty-four hours with a room full of horrors.''

There is no sense in being martyr to pain. Any kind of pain-rheumatism neuralgia, sciatica, headaches, sprains, bruises, lame-back, will soon disappear if you rub the sore spot thoroughly with the magical new preparation PANGA- LAY. It stops pain, because of it's great penetration. It goes right through the skin to the seat of the trouble and car ries healing ingredients to the painful spot.

 Has love anything to do with mar riage; or marriage with love?
 TO what extent should a wife be dutiful to her husband?
 Should principles dominate ones love, or should love dominate ones principles?
 Does the woman get a square deal under the present marital laws?
 You might paste that list in your hat when you go to the play and keep score. The play is supposed to pro- pound and answer all these questions.

Textiles by the side of the track,
six miles south of here, mass of
broken, battered and twisted wood
and steel That only one person was
killed and that probably none of the
more than fifty hurt will die of his
injuries, is considered miraculous,
since every car, with the exception
of the rear sleeper, was piled in the
ditch when the train ran through an
open switch while speeding at So
miles an hour at 3 o'clock Sunday
morning.
Mrs. George Lewis, 800 white ave-
nue., Kansas City, Mo, who was rid
ing in one of the chair cars, was the
only person killed.
No. 10, the northbound limited, was
late. 1t was due here at 2:10, and
the southbound, leaving here at 1858,
the ill-fated No. 8, was given orders
here to take siding at Savanna,
few miles below HALEY. Just be-
fore reaching the switch at HALEY,
and while said to have been running
at the rate of 55 miles per hour, the
pilot struck four horses on the track.
One of the horses was thrown with
such force that it struck the switch
stand, breaking it off and splitting
the switch. Into this open switch the
engine veered, left the rails, and was
followed by every car in the train,
only the rear sleeper remaining on
its wheels. The engine and tender
were piled to one side of the track
and the cars to the other side. -Four

EyegIass wearers have long since
complained that people are careless
with umbrellas. Many pairs of glass

by persons who selfishly refuse to
move an umbrella so as to allow 9TH

eyes of passing walkers.
