Hours After Accident.

W. r. Berry. 7s, Unconscious fer Two
Hours After accident.
The following is taken from the
Carthage Press and refers to the
father of A. T. and Ralph Berry,
all of whom are well known here:
"W.T. Berry, of Thirteenth and
Clinton streets, who was hurt last
Thursday by a fall from a load Of
hay, is getting along very well and
is expected to be out in a week or
ten days. He was rs years old
last fall, but shows much recup-
erative power in recovering from
his hurts.
1.-THE accident happened on the
road seven miles northeast of town.
Part Of the load OF hay fell off and
Mr.. Berry fell under it. Hefell on
his head and shoulder and was
rendered unconscious and E.
manned so for two hours. Several
years ago he fell from a barn near
Golden City and broke his hip.
In the fall from the hay he injured
his hip, but not seriously. Other
wise bruises and scratches consti-
tuted his hurts.
when Mr.. Berry fell, the team
wandered on unguided and strayed
over into a wheat field at the side
of the road.
Frank Percy noticed the team
in the wheat and proceeded to in
vestigate. No one was in sight,
but examination of the fallen hay
at the side of the road revealed
the unconscious man beneath
Mr.. Berry was taken to the Piercy
home 200 yards west and there
properly cared for. He wa;
brought to his home in this city
that evening"

Roll the Table Cloth.

In some Of the domestic science
schools the pupils are now taught to
roll table cloths instead OF folding
them, since the folds in the linen ura
always the first places to show wear.
The cloths are ironed fat and rolled
while being ironed. Start to roll them
as soen as half yard is lroned and
keep the roll directly In front, turning
1t as fast rs the ironing Is done. Thick
brown paper may be used If you have
no regular roll. One clever woman
who procured several mailing tubes
placed them end to end and covered
them with n fancy wall paper. pastIng
1t on securely. This makes a firm
foundation for the roll.
