AT KlbOurn a Pathe film man ran
across the visiting editors while they
were up the river viewing the dells
with the result that they will no
doubt be seen again in Baraboo in
picture form.

now a member of the staGa highway
commission, joined the editors last
evening at Devils lake and accom-
panied them on their trip today. He
thought the speed cops might meet
with an opportunity to get some rath-

before the trip is completed judging
from an experience he had recently
at WOnewOc, which is mentioned else
where in this issue.

Some of the editors after their climb
up the Devils lake tufts thought they
deserved a leather medal for attempt
ing such mountain climbing as they
described it. They are more accus-

Many complimentary remarks were
heard from the visitors as to their
treatment in Baraboo The band con-
cert was much enjoyed and a visit to
the Al. Ringing theatre was a treat
TO all. 1t was a courteous and kindly
act on the part of the management of
the theatre to receive the editors as
their guests. A large bouquet OF
handsome gladioli grown by VIII
Morse met the gaze of the visitors as
they entered the theatre and added
to its charm.

cited on account of the crossbar of the
wagon to which he was hitched dropping
on his hind legs.
The horse and wagon were the prop

and the animal was driven by George
VI. Bruce. The crossbar fell lust as
MT. Bruce was attempting to turn into
High street. The sudden blow of the

The horse. however, did not entirely
lose his head and after several merry
go-round effects he headed for the
stables in Harmony place and just as
the outfit passed through the Brooks
House archway the animal started on a
record-breaking steal for home. Mr..
Bruce, realizing that the horse was about
to run away, jumped from the wagon
and landed heavily on the ground. His
nose and one of his fingers were badly
scraped and he sustained bruises on his

were dressed.
The animal was caught near the en-

Permanent Muscular Strength.

There is this to be borne in mind in
these days when so many young men are
giving so much attention to physical de-
velopment. in gymnastic and athletic ex-
ercises, that there cannot be permanent
muscular strength where there is not
blood strength.
Hoods Sarsaparilla gives blood
strength, promotes digestion and hssimi-
lation, and builds up the whole system.
