j. Rich Young, who lives on ]. T..
Hammond's farm on the Danville
pike, made record at skunk killing
the other night when he brought back
home six of the bad-smelling var
minis. He "treed" one in a hole in
the ground, which by a sleight-of-
hand performance he induced to leave
his hiding place and he shot it with
a 22-calibre rifle. He placed the
same game five more times and each
time brought down polecat. There
were four black and two white ones.
He skinned them and sold the hides
to w. B. Buchanan for $40. Pretty
good evenings work.

ANOTHER ROAD
BOND ELECTION

Circulating in West End
Get Enough Names.

News comes from the West End
that petitions are being circulated
for another election in Lincoln coun-
ty on the road bond question. 1t Is

County Court at its term on Feb
ruary 18th. Reports from the West
End say that many who were against
the road bond proposition have come
out strong for it now, since they
have seen the fearful conditions in
which the highways have gotten dur
ing the winter weather. The petit
tions are said to ask the calling of
the election as soon as possible after
the filing of same with the court,
which would make the date about the

those behind the movement in the
West End have appealed to friends

The big manatee or sea COW, which

To scoop the sea COW out Of the tanl

possible. So they let all the water

COULD MAKE A GOOD GUESS
Young Man Was Not Sure as to Size,
but Was Willing to Take o
Chance on II.

Into a mems furnishing store
stepped a young man warily. almost
timidly. He lacked the air OF con.
fidence Of the man who is about to
purchase tie or a handkerchief or
collar. Eagerly the genial fioorwalk-
err pounced upon him and the prospec-
tive customers first words explained
everything.
"Have you anything suitable for
young LADY," he asked looking about
dazedly at the rows Of shirt boxes.
Something for her birthday. you
know"
well. should say we have. Step
right this way, please. Miss Apper-
son, will you show this gentleman
some ladies' hose, or"-he added, as
he noted the inquirer's pitiable confu-
sion. perhaps he would prefer to see
some of those near-silk ladies' coat
sweaters?"
He would, he certainly would. and
when he found a man in charge at the
sweater counter he became almost
himself again. The sweater idea
seemed to strike him favorably. and
for several minutes he inspected color
combinations and felt fabrics. Finally
the clerk dropped him into hot water
again.
about what size does the young
lady wcar?"
Il was a poser and entirely unex-
pected. The young man gazed at a
dummy figure on which a sweater coat
was displayed, then walked up to It,
circled It with his arm, and nodded:
About this size, I think"

Gold You Can See Through.

Gold, which becomes so important
in war time, is an extremely inter
esting substance in many ways.
1t can be beaten so thin that 125,00e
leaves Of it piled on top of one another
would only reach an inch in height
When beaten into the thinnest posi-
BILE sheet it becomes transparent.
Gold, too, can be drawn into the fin
est wire OF any metal. Michael Far
aday. the great British chemist. once
calculated that he could make a gold
wire from four sovereigns long enough
to go around the earth.
II is because gold can be beaten SC
thin that tobacconists are able TO use
real gold for tipping cigarettes. and
yet not charge an exorbitant price
for them.

BUG MAKES THE BEAN JUMP
When One Holds Seed over Fire the
Insect Is lmpeIed to Give
Dance.

It is a bug which puts the jump in
the Mexican jumping bean. You are
probably acquainted with the bean.
Hold it over a fire until it is warmed
little and it will roll around and
jump like a thing alive. And it is
alive, too. A little plump. white in
sect is inside the shell of the bean,
the larva of moth called the carpo-
capsa.
The insect was Matched inside the
bean from an egg which the moth
planted there while the shell was still
soft. About one-fifth of the interior
Of the shell is occupied by the larva.
the rest by the bean.
To make cozy home, the larva
spins a silk thread and lines the hol-
low shell with 1t. Later in winter It
cuts a tiny round door through the
shell and strengthens 1t with silk, and
about this time of year 1t forces its
way out the door and flies away, for
now 1t is moth.
So it is the insect and not the bean
that jumps. When you hold the bean
over the fire 1t warns his feet and he
dances for your entertainment. .
