4 months and weeks he never missed a
Sunday being in his place every Sabbath,
no matter how bad the weather and
regardless OF the difficulties that might lie
in his way He was almost as regular
in his attendance on the church service,
and If was rare occasion when his place
was vacant. When there was no one to
bring him TO the house of God, he CROPPED
his way there alone, and no obstacle was
sufficient to keep him from the regular
service. He had absolute faith in God,
and his religion was manifested IN his
exemplary character and his simple, cheer
full trust in his Saviour. Though an OBJ
jet OF charity himself, he found opportu-
nifty to help others, and what he received
he in turn distributed to others who were
in need. From his own limited income
he gave regularly 10 the church and mis-
sions, and WAS thoroughly unselfish and
thoughtful. His influence for good in
the community will never be lost.
The funeral service was held Tuesday
afternoon in the Lutheran Church, being
conducted by his pastor, Rev D. Wor-
man, assisted by Rev DR. Charles Ghise-
lin. The pail bearers were Messrs.
Charles F. Byers, H c. Marten, VIM. r.

formed Church.

Kangaroo Island for Preservation
Of Australian Species Of
Wild Life,

Kangaroo island, which is situated
some six hours steaming from Ade-
laide, the capital of South Australia, is
regarded as an ideal place in which

botanical species distinctive Of the
Australian content. At present It's
square miles on the island are utilized
as fauna and flora reserve and 1t Is
now suggested that the area should be
considerably increased. Certain islands
In various lakes have been set apart
as bird sanctuaries. close seasons for
different kinds of birds are proclaimed
and in various other ways efforts are
made to prevent the destruction of the
native fauna and flora.
Recently the attention Of the South
Australian commission of crown lands
was drawn to the desirableness of pro-

"Devilish Dances" Century Old.
Whatever may be said against the
tango, in the matter of nomenclature,
at all events, it compares favorably
with some dances in vogue hundred
years ago. Harriet Beecher Stowe
records that in her girlhood she and
her friends used to dance Jig en-
titled go to the Devil and Shake
Yourself" This dance must have en-
Ioyed long spell of popularity.
The first Duke of Buckingham was
highly indignant when, having deigned

the reply: 60 to the Devil and Shake

lady, who was somewhat deaf, thought
his grace had asked her what dance
was then being played. This incident
occurred in 1895, and twenty years.

Jedu ueIFOuSly, Oh tHe way.
Gabby Gallagher seemed a fitting
leader for such a desperate crew as
that Of the Centipede, for he was the
hardest-looking citizen the easterners
had beheld thus far. He was thickset,
and burned to the color of ripe olive;
his long, dropping mustaches, tobacco
stained at the center, were bleached
at the extremities to a hempen hue.
His bristly hair was cut short, and
stood aggressively erect upon a bullet
head, his clothes were soiled and
greasy beneath gray coating of dust
A pair of alert. lead-blue eyes and
certain facility Of movement belied the
drawl that marked his nativity. He
removed his hat and bowed at sight
of Miss Chaplin.

Quite well. Gallagher. And you?"
'Tolable, thank you"

The Centipede foreman ran his eyes
coldly over Jeans companions until
they rested upon Speed, where they
remained. He shifted a lump in his
cheek. spat dexterously. and directed
his remark at the Yale man.
Il rode over to see II y'all would like

casion to ramark:

and the passengers crowded to the
doors suddenly a loud squawk was
heard a good sized healthy looking
Rhode Island Red rooster jumped out
of the band box taking the whole Tide
and roof of his temporary home with
him. The owner of the hat after
two or three frantic thrusts about in
the air located his chicken and was
