SPECIAL TRAIN
FATHER HAS THRILLING ENPE-
RIENCE GETTING son TO
HOSPITAL.

Pierre, Jan. Ell. T. Cooper, of
Chapelle, had a thrilling experience
in the storm. A son developed a Sc
rious case of appendicitis Saturday
night, and an attempt was made TO
get him to Canning, the nearest rail
way point. about thirteen miles from
the ranch. The effort only got the
party a little over a mile from the
house and it took them over an hour
to find the way back. AS soon as ii
was light enough to see Sunday
morning another start was made. 1t
took six hours of wallowing through
huge drifts to make the thirteen
miles, each nan driving in turn for
a few minutes. The suffering young
man was finally got to the railway
station only to find that all trains
had been abandoned. BY telephone
the father got into communication
with the railway headquarters here
and a special train carrying a doctor
was started for Canning. After buck
ing drifts for three hours the train
made the round trip and the young
man was placed in a hospital in this
city.

SMALLPOX IN DALLAS
Schools Are Closed and Public Gath
erings Prohibited.

Dallas. Jan. 27.-The schools are
closed and all public gatherings pro
hibited for two weeks as a result OF
an order by the board of health in
effect yesterday. There are several
mild cases of smallpox here. The
mildness of the disease has made
people careless and the board acted
as a precautionary measure under
the state law. Physicians cannot
quarantine unless given municipal
authority. Authority was given, and
all cases are now quarantined, al
though there was some resistance.
Farmers with smallpox in their
families are warned by order to keep
off the streets of Dallas, and all chill
dren in the city are restricted to their
yards AT home.

To the Editor:

To the Editor:
First, get in the right frame of
mind.
If possible. get mad and reckless;
you can do it better then.
Wait till there are some boys
around so that they can learn how
it is done; you will thus double its
effectiveness.
Don't mind If the boys think you
are too devout for using the name Of
God and Christ frequently.
IF you have been lying it will make
denial more effective If you swear a
good deal.
If you want TO be well thought of
swear a great deal in public.
Your proficiency will be known by
the class of swear words" you use.
Coin soTac new ones SO that folks
may see how original you are.
Swear by mail you may be arrest
ed, but you don't care.
When you know where you are GO
ing it is better to learn the language
of the country before you arrive.
If you are looking for a job, swear
a great deal; folks like to hire men
who swear.
If you have anything to sell swear
about it; that is the mark of a good
salesman.
Where to swear:
Swear at home; il will be instruc-
tive to your wife and edifying to the
family.
Swear on the street; it gives tone
to a town to hear plenty of profan-
ity in public places.
Swear in the barber shops; ii is
very instructive and eleyating to the
other customers.
Swear in the stores; the lady clerks
and customers will enjoy it inn
mensely.
Swear at the movies; it will ex-
press your appreciation of the show.
Swear when you call on a friend;
if you can also squirt some tobacco
juice it will make the call more i'm
pressiye.
