Average Length of Life.

-Four hundred years ago the average
length Of human life was between
eighteen and twenty years. One hun
dred years ago the average human life
was less than thirty. The average hu-
man life today reaches nearly forty
years. This shows what medical
science has done for human life.-Phil.

If the people approve of the poll

election who will uphold the presi-

1t seems quite clear that the aver
age republican politician is either
hogtied to doctrine and argument some
five years absolute, or lacks either
doctrine OF argument of any kind
whatever. Many of them have OPP
posed the administrations war emer-
gency measures. Yet, for their part,
what has been proposed? Not a bless
ed thing!

Child Killed at Usage BY Auto.

The seven year-old daughter OF Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Armstrong, who reside
about a mile and one-half south of
Orchard was run over by an automobile
while in attendance at the Automobile
Day celebration at Usage, Wednesday.
We understand the car was REQ driven
from Charles City for demonstration
purposes The driver had been warned
to keep off the race course, but he gave
no heed to the warning. Eye witnesses
claim that he was going at speed of
40 miles an hour when the little girl
started across the track. The mother
with the other children of the family
were standing by and the father had
just crossed over when the little girl
started to follow. The sight was some
thing terrible as the child was struck
by the front wheel of the car and was
carried some distance by the rear
wheel. The driver it is stated set
brakes with remarkable presence of
mind. The shock was so great ne
tainted away and it was necessary to
place him under the care of a physician.
Several tainted at the horrible presence,
The bright and CHEEKY atmosphere of
gala day was cast into gloom in an
instant.
One of the eye witnesses to the acct
dent was so terribly effected that he
died few hours afterward. The driver
of the automobile is in precarious
condition and has been delerious since
the mishap. His friends fear that his
reason will not return. He has been
taken to his home in Charles City,

Sixteen Gents IS RiQht.

The hail man on the N. E. of the
N. E. near Bonair has insinuated in
printers ink that advertised insur-
ance below cost! The facts are not in
harmony with the language he en-
ploys. Three per cent can not be :.ac-
cepted as cost-it would place the prop
osition in light too misleading. If
three per cent is cost, one and one-half
per cent is below cost; just half az
much, is it not? This is my position.
The question of how the 16 cents is ar
rived at is not an abstruse one and
might be answered by school boy en-.
tirely unfamiliar with geometry. Take
the assessments of 1912 and 1913, leach
with an assessment of Is cents per
acre, and the three previous years. as
sessments, strike an average, then ap-
ply the ordinary mathematical demon
stration to that and the volume of
business of those years and you get as
a result fifteen and eighty-6ve one
hundredths cents, or less than sixteen
cents per acre. Simple, is it not? Get
the "6ggers, and the schoolboy. No
trouble. Hundreds of members can in
form you as to this and many other
subjects.
) The people over in this section are
very Indifferent as to your law suits,
your license or your other private af-
fairs, and it is not very becoming to
attempt to launder your soiled linen in
the midst of generous and hospitable
people who are constructive lot of
boosters, who are going to celebrate
the 9TH in becoming manner and each
is vying with the other to do the most
in aiding the enterprise morally and fl
nanclally. Get out of the crouch.
Cheer up. Look on the bright side of
life. Everybody is not your Nemesis!
Come over and enjoy the 9TH as you
never did before-Bring your friend
Invite all my friends near Bonair. The
mayor will give you the keys of the

you will return home happy. This will
