"a sister at Salt Lake City, whom he

TO meet him, but they didn't recog-
mize each other, but his sister walked
up to him and asked if he was the
gentleman who came from Colorado
Springs, and receiving an affirmative
answer, the identity was made known.
1t was the first meeting in forty
three years, and a most enjoyable
one. Carl took few plunges In Salt
Lake, and tells us that there was no
danger of drowning, because per-

TO AVOID APPENDICITIS.

Specialists of John Hopkins Uni
versity have joined the Keep Oh
Smiling" the medical term for one
kind OF pain in the side, they say. Ap-
pendicitis is the medical term for
one kind of pain in the side. These
thoughtful and inquiring doctors, in
deed, have reached the conclusion
that mental depression is one of the
most frequent causes of appendicitis,
since worry AID faulty mastication
usually blend, and boiling ones food
leads directly to disorder in the APP
pendiX. So they recommend smiling
and similar light minded diversions.
The public in general welcomes
such admonitions. For the public
does not particularly enjoy going to
a hospital to permit surgeon to
Iexplore and readjust its interior APP
purtenances or fixtures. Almost ev-
eyone would prefer smiling away
appendicitis to being tinkered With
and whitted by busy surgeon.
One suspects that there is great
deal of good sense in the John Hop
kins doctors free and wholesome az.
vice, which ought to be well digested
by everyone.

Peculiar Auto Accident.

Thursday night a peculiar automo-

grounds. Albert Bernatz and a par
ty of friends were coming from the
Waukon fair in Mr.. Bernatz's Ford.
When near the fair grounds he at
tempted to pass big Kissel car driv
en- by John Holm. In turning out Mr..
Bernatz ran square into pile of til
ing near the side of the road, and all
four tires on the car exploded. The
left rear side of the car struck a tele-
phone pole and the fender was
smashed. Luckily no one in the car
were injured, and Mr.. Bernatz took
the tires off and ran the car home on
the rims.

City Parks Are Necessities.

Those who do not believe much
in parks ought to take a look at them
on holidays and Sundays. Parks, rs
matter Of fact, are among the most
necessary things in city life. A city
without parks would be as deal as
Ceaser and about as fit place 10
live in as cemetery. In Cedar Rap
ids we have not let up on park build
ing and improvement, but we should
increase both the areas and their ia
oilities for the pleasure of the peo-
pie. AS the city grows we will more
and more realize the need of such

Party Autoists From West Cnion IL
Wreck Near Fort Atkinson.
Car Wrecked.

Sunday afternoon about three o..
clock Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. d. Wells and
Mr.. and Mrs. A. n. Vance were en-
joying an automobile ride in the
Wells touring car and were driving
west from Calmar towards Fort At
kinson. Just about three miles this
side of the Fort as they were going
over a small cuIvert bridge, Mr..
Wells thought she heard cries for
help, and Mr.. Wells stopped tie car
a short distance past the bridge and
they went back, and discovered a
wrecked automobile down the en-
bankment, and man and two women
in an injured and dazed condition
nearby. They we're DR.. Barry and
two young ladies from West Union,
who had been out touring and were
going towards Fort Atkinson. One of
the young ladies was driving the car,
a big Studebaker. Just before coming
to the culvert she had turned out to
let another car pass, and intended
putting her foot on the brake, but
instead put it on the accelerator and
the car shot forward at a terrific
speed, and she was unable to control
it. The car struck the side of the
bridge and turned completely over,
throwing the occupants out, and for
tunately not injuring them seriously,
as no bones were broken, but they
went way down off the steep en-
bankment into the ditch.
The DEBORAH people rendered first
aid and rescued the people from the
ditch, put them in the Wells car and
took them to Calmar and from there
home to West Union.
The engine on the wrecked car was
crushed in, the radiator crumpled up,
and the bar across the front of the
car was twisted into figure eight.

CLOTHES BRUSH GLOBE
TROTTER.
Brush Given Away by Ben Bear
Eleven Years Ago Has Travelled
25,SO9 Miles.

To travel over eighteen different
railroads and six steamship lines,
going 25,S09 miles on its journey is
the record of a clothes brush, which
was given to a DEBORAH man by Ben
Bear, the we'll known clothier eleven
years ago. The gentleman to whom
the brush was given, and in whose
possession it has since been, arrived
in DEBORAH a short time ago on a Wis
it to home folks, and the fact of still
having the brush with him, prompt
ed him to take it to the Square Deal
ing store and give little history of
it's travels with him. 1t is still in SER
viceable condition, although used for
eleven years. Since the brush left
Ben Bears store eleven vars ago 1t
has made the dust fly over eighteen
different railroads and six different
steamship lines, visited "a states and
one territory, the District of Column
bia and two foreign countries, and
made its appearance in fortyLthree OF
the largest cities in the United
States.
The brush is now on exhibition in
the corner display window of Bears
store. We think the above is a rec
ord to be proud of, for the man who
owns the brush and for Mr.. Bear who
gave the brush to him as souvenir
eleven years ago.

CURB MARKET
TRANSACTIONS
Record High Prices In the Motor
Stocks-Oil Group Dull
and Irregular.

On an unusually large volume OF
business, motor stocks yesterday con-
tinued their upward rush until record
prices were recorded in practically all
of these issues. Some, however. failed
to maintain all Of the early improve
ment, the subsequent reaction in many
issues wiping out n good proportion Of
the advances. United Motors led in the
trading, rising to 81, new high, but
closed at under 80, with net advance
of 3 points. Chevrolet Motor opened
strong and continued its advance TO
27s, where it stood at a record level,
but later dropped, to end at go, I'M
changed on the day. White Motors
touched a new high at so, but lost part
Of it's early gain, closing more than a
point above Saturdays final mark
Little attention was given TO the oil
stocks, where price changes were few
and irregular. Trading was conside.-
ably reduced in the mining group and
movement was small. Chesapeake &
Ohio 5s made another slight advance.
