The Perpetual Blunderer.

Ever meet the affable gentleman
who smilingly confesses that he has
made a mistake in some matter or
other and is richly and profoundly re-
gretful-wont you forgive him-and
bear the penalty of his blunder your
self, 1fke a jolly fellow? Fine, gen.
tle-mannered, valuable acquaintance,
isn't he-this fellow with the infinite
capacity for blundering and the gen.
erous capacity to apologize and leave
you to hold the bag, puzzled to know
just why you grasped hold of the
thing? Afterward you regret meeting
him and try to transfer your business
elsewhere, don't you? OF course, all
of us make mistakes in judgment and
actlon--and most of us are quite ready
to condone the occasional lapse from
accuracy-but what shall we do with
the fellow whose blunders average 80
pei ceni or more? Where Is his place
in the business system of the world?

PAYS TO WATCH THE PENNIES
Real Explanation of Why Some Men
Are Wealthy, and Others Are
Directly the Reverse.

1t is habit that a rich man as
sumes to pick up a penny whenever
or wherever they can conveniently,
and sometimes they will go out of
their way to do so. | remember when
! was small boy, that was nearly
fifty years ago, very wealthy man
in our city came driving along toward
a high overhead railroad bridge
was playing with some companions
of mine on the bridge.
/ cannot exactly remember why it
was done, but l fished penny out of
my pocket and was showing it to my
boy companions when it slipped
through my fingers and dropped to the
pavement below. The wealthy old
man drove up, and to all appearances
he was in deep thought with his head
buried upon his chest
He saw my penny, however, delib-
erately stopped his horse, getting out
of his carriage, picked up that penny,
pocketed it, and returning to his wag.
on drove off as if nothing had ever
happened.
There was a sad heart pulsing over
his head, can tell you, for penny in
those days was as big as dime is
to a boy today, and l felt the loss
of it keenly That man was multi.
millionaire, and by just such little
things as that was how he was con-
stantly accumulating more all of the
time.
The average boy of today does not
take advantage of his opportunities
to make and to save. There seem to
be too many forms of temptation
thrown in his way to rid him of his
extra dimes and nickels, when if they
were saved and deposited in some
savings institution startling result
would be achieved in few years.

DRAMA FOUND IN EVERYTHING
Curious, Who Are Subject to
Much Criticism.

Dickens noted in his day-as 1 in
mine-how casual people in the street
would fatten their noses against the
window of chemists shop in order to
catch glimpse of some little surgical
repair which the victim of trivial ac-
cident might be undergoing in the back
parlor.
Morbid curiosity" says the superior
person, who may none the less have
taken his own measures to become ac-
quainted with each cory detail The
superior person is notoriously short
sighted and may even be said to wear
blinkers; the nose flatteners are not
perhaps, articulate, and can give no
philosophical description of the
promptings which move them, but
they are swayed, however, uncon-
sciously, by the excitation of their dra-
matte sense.
They are doing reverence, though
ignorant, to the foundation truth that
there is drama in everything and even
in nothing-Percy Clare, in London

Poisoned Meat in the Woods.

McGregor, Ia, July IA bear
or not a bear is question which

that of a black bear, though it was
slightly decomposed and it was not
POSSIBLE to remove the hide for
positive identification. The animal
measured u feet in length and
stood about 21s feet high. 1t had
a short tail and was covered with
thick, brown, shaggy hair. Mr.. Car

A Having Accident.

West Liberty, Ia, July 13.-The
internal injuries which Mrs. w. ID.
Conklin sustained in the breaking OF
the hay hosting apparatus she was
managing at her husbands farm are
expected to prove fatal. She has
suffered hemorrhages and her con-
dition is so critical that thorough ex-
animation cannot be made, to deter
mine the full extent of her injuries.
Mrs. Conklin was driving the team
of horses which was hosting the
hay into the NOW. The breaking of
a singletree permitted the double
tree to swing outward with so great
force that she was felled instantly
when the heavy wood struck her in
the abdomen. Since the accident the
physician has found it necessary to
administer opiates in order to relieve
her sufferings.

ing a bit of land which had never

not over thirty yards apart and al
though not in good state of preser-
walton they were complete in num-
Der. The antlers of one animal
measured eight feet from tip to tip,
and two jaw bones were in perfect
condition. The bones were lying
where it is possible the animals were
killed by early day hunters. Part
of the bones were broken by the
pillow and part would not bear their
own weight when lifted from the
ground. A large number of persons
have already visited the spot which
the owner is trying TO keep for

Child Held Prisoner Until Iron Tube
Is Sawed and Chiseled.

A remarkable accident, and one
that will long be remembered in the
neighborhood of the East Ward
school, occurred last Thursday when
Baby Phillips Stanley, the 16-months
cd son of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert STAN
ley, of Knoxville, was caught and
held fast with its foot and leg in a
water pipe and remained in the trap
until the father dug up the tube and
sawed and chisled until the foot was
released.
The pipe is what is known as a
service "box"-a corrugated iron
tube or 31a inches in diameter,
which was buried with the upper,
opened end exposed On the Stanley
lawn. The child stepped into the
tube and slipped down almost to the
hip. The inside corrugations made
it impossible for the women folks to
release the child on account of the
toes and heel catching in the inden-
tations. Mr.. Stanley was called from
the electric light works and one of
the Bellamy's soon hurried to the
scene with a doctor in an automobile.
The neighbors gathered and every
body except the child and its father
was excited almost to the hand-wrin-
ging pitch. When the child COM
menced to fret, Mr. Stanley ordered
q cookie and a glass OF water for his
little offspring and then coolly COM
menced the task of digging out the
tube with spade Two feet down
he found the connection and lifted
it out and deposited the baby and
the iron leggin on the grass. He
then commenced to work on the pipe
with a chisel and a hacksaw, and in
the course of half an hour succeeded
in releasing the young hopeful, much
to the relief of the crowd that had
gathered to witness the peculiar pro-
ceedings Journal.
