Cattle Over High Bluff.

John Brennan, a farmer living
near Harpers, sustained a serious
loss on Wednesday, fourteen head
of cattle going over the bluff on land
he had leased. He had the stock or
this land only about a week, fifteen
head in all. 1t appears the land is
shelving near the edge of the bluff,
the ground beng covered wi h leaves
and snow. At the bottom of the
bluff is located Peter Conway's stone
quarry and into this the poor ami
mails tumbled IN an unrecognizable
mass one on top of the other. Just
how the cattle came TO go over the
bluff is not known, but the fourteenth
one was seen to fall by Will Heatley
who was our informant regarding
this remarkable affair One animal
only is left of the herd. 1t is thought
the distance the cattle fell was
about $50 feet. To Mr.. Brennan
this means a loss of almost one thou
sand dollars.-Lansing Mirror.

AUTO TURNS TURTLE.
Alights on All Four Wheels and
None of Occupants Hurt.

While running at speed estimat-
ed at thirty or thirty-five miles an
hour a Glide automobile, driven by
A. l.. Hensen, of Peoria, H., en-
route from Marshalltown to Conrad,
went off the grade at a point ono
half mile west of Conrad at o'clock
Sunday afternoon, turned turtle, and
landed in the ditch several feet be-
low on all four wheels, with no more
damage than broken spring.
The occupants of the car escaped
uninjured save for slight bruises.
The accident happened when Hensen
turned out TO pass another car. The
line of the grade was obscured by
the snow, and the car pitched off
headlong almost before the driver
was aware that he was out of the
road. The accident happened at the
same point where C. f. Pickard and
wife went off the grade, July 4,
1913.
The accident was the third one OF
its kind to happen to the car, and
each time the car, after turning over
landed right side up on it's four tires

ASSISTANT PRIEST AT OSSIAN.
Rev. Peter j. Friedman Assistant,
to Rev. NJ. j. Thiltgen, ID. ID.

Archbishop James J. Keane has
appointed Rev. Peter ]. Friedman,
of Luxembourg, Iowa, assistant to
Rev. M. J. Thiltgen, d. D., of ST.
Francis de Sales parish. Father
Friedman is young man, recently
ordained, this being his first charge
since his elevation to priesthood. For
six years he pursued his studies ut
st. Josephs College, Dubuque, and
four years at the st. Paul Seminary,
where he concluded his theological
studies.
st. Francis de Sales parish has a
membership of two hundred families
or about 1000 souls and the duties
were entirely too arduous for one
man. Knowing this, the Archbishop
appointed Father Friedman, the
first assistant in the parish since it
was founded many years ago.-Bee.

DEATH RESULTS FROM RAW
PORK.
Mother is Dead and Two Daughters

Facts Worth knowing.
(Care Of the Eyes.)


Greatest care should be taken Of
the eyes. Pain or discomfort Of any
kind in them should be paid atten-
ton to at once. Every child's eyes
should be examined by a competent
oculist. Be sure and go to a quail
fled physician who specializes in eyes.
for many an eye has been ruined by
going to an optician who examines
your eyes free so that he can sell
you your glasses. Remember that
a child with poor eyes is handicapped
in every way both in childhood and
in after-life. Bad eyes make chill
dren irritable and also retard their
progress in studies. Never try to
read, sew or do any fine work in a
poor light Reading in the twilight
is certain to injure the eyes.
Never buy eyewashes, nor any
medicine for the eyes which is not
recommended by qualified physi-
clan.

A Five Legged Calf.

A practical joke of nature was
perpetrated on Henningsen Bros, of
Dixie, Iowa, when one of their pure
bred Polled Durham cows gave birtl
to a freak calf having five legs. The
calf is full sized, fully developed.
strong and healthy. The extra leg
grows out from the neck just in
front of the right shoulder. 1t grows
out forward and then bends toward
the head like big hook and having
Just one big claw on the end of the
leg. This claw the calf sucks ut
times like a child sucks its finger.
The extra leg having four movable
Joints it can move it up and down
and it moves it in unison with the
other leg when walking. AS the
calf is of pure bred parentage 1T is
entitled to record in the herd books.

Near Garrison Few Days Ago.

Vinton, Dec. 2S.-A most unus
ual accident, which has caused the
whole community a pang of sorrow

the 7-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert Taylor, was playing in the

other men were taking corn out thru
a spout from the lover part of tho
bin. The little fellow was drawn
down under the corn in the direc-
ton Of the spout until he was COM
pletely submerged. His sister, who
was with him, gave the alarm and
the men came to the rescue as rapid
ly as possible, but could not find the
body. A hole was then made in the
bottom of the bin and about 400
bushels of corn let out. The boy was
dead when found DR.. Carl of Gar
rison was summoned but life was ex-
tinct when he arrived.

SHE OBJECTED.
A Clerk Objects to Recent Article
by Our observer"

Editors Note:-This week We are
emitting Observers article to give
space to an answer to one of them
printed a few weeks ago-the one
in which a clerk was censored We
cannot attempt to print an answer to
every one of Observers articles, but
we shall give space to the following,
written by a clerk:
If observer ever worked behind
counter in a retail store, he would
know what clerks have to contend
with. How we do appreciate wait
ing on a real lady or gentleman,
gladly showing them our goods and
giving such advice as we can. But
the people who are so sociable on
the streets and in public gatherings
are, for the most part, different when
they approach an employee behind
counter. We clerks are human and
feel entitled to the same courteous
treatment from our customers that
they expect from us.
observer" mistakes in calling us
fools and jellyfshes because we per.
haps wear better clothes than he
or she. He or she should remember
we have to appear neat and clean.
Our employers demand it-and if we
did not, observer" no doubt woul |
quickly find fault with what he
would call slovenness.
/ have no idea who Observer is,
but his article sounds to me like
coming from one who is glad to find
an excuse for going out of town to
buy. If he dislikes any certain
clerk in town, that is no reason for
his going away to buy, or ever boy
cotting the store in which that parti-
cular clerk works. The employee
will be glad to wait on him. Surely
observer" doesn't stay away be-
cause there may be some one in eth
er whom he does not like.
Forget your little grievance, Mr.
observer" give that same clerk
half chance, treat him with the
treatment you expect and / feel sure
you'll find him more human than you
have imagined

STAY AWAY.

Things are dull in San Francisco,
On the bum in New Orleans;
Rather punk in cultured Boston,
Famed for Goldfish, pork and
beans.
On the hog in Kansas City,
In Denver men are barred,
And they're helping in Chicago,
Cause times are mighty hard.
Not much doing in old Stockton
And the same in Baltimore.
Coin don't rattle in Seattle
AS it did in days of yore.
Things are dead around Atlanta
And in Houston they are still,
And there's mighty little doing
In the town called Louisville.
At a standstill now in Brooklyn,
Cincinnati, New York too,
In the limits of Milwaukee
There is little work to do.
In the face of all such rumors
1t don't seem amiss to say,
Where ever you are going, DO,
You'd better stay away.-EX.

Old Couple Burn to Death.

A fire last Wednesday morning
about I o'clock destroyed the home
of Olof Olson, three quarters of Il
mile west of Waterville, and the
aged parents Of Mrs Olson, Mr. and
Mrs Hanson, were burned to death.
Mr., Olson had built the house fires
and later while doing his chores at
the barn, was Mortified to discover
the home in flames. The old folks
slept in the second story where the
fire evidently originated from a de-
fective flue. Olson made frantic ef
forts to rescue them but the flames
prevented His wife and daughter
barely had time to escape from their
rooms On the lower floor, so rapid
and fierce was the fire. The house
and entire contents were quickly
consumed. The bodies of the old
couple were found in the ruins. 1t
is presumed their death was really
caused by suffocation from the smoke
and heat. They were pioneer resi-
dents of that locality and last sum-
mer had celebrated their Goth we'd
ding anniversary with a happy gath
ering of family and friends. Harold
Hanson, living near by, is their son
and Mrs. Hans Sorenson is a daugb-

Matches.

The match is q little piece of wood
with lump of dormant hell on the
end of it. Matches are just like wo-
men. If you've eot bunch of them,
every one is alright, but let the
stock get down to single one and
It's sure to disappoint you when
needed. This fact, too, proves their
value. With full supply of either
women or matches, we consider them
lightly, but most men have seen the
time when they'd give almost any
thing for one.
