BOTH LOSE THUMB

Mrs. J.sH. Kost and her 10 year old
son, who live miles east Of Wash.
burn, both met with painful accident
Wednesday afternoon Of this week,
when they both lost thumb and two
fingers of the left hand. when dyna-
mite caps exploded in their hands.
The peculiar coincidence Of the accf-s
dents was that neither one knew that
the other was hurt, until he boy re-
turned from school with his hand man
gled only to: find his mother in, the
same fix "
The lad tells the story that he found
two dynamite caps at the mouth of q
coal mine near their home. One OF
these he gave to hfs small five year
old brother and the other he carried
to school with him. The baby boy
came into the house with his in his
mouth and when his mother saw it she
took it away from him. Mrs. Kost
did not know what it was and think
ing to make the boy a whistle out of
it she dug into it with hair pin. To.
get firmer hold on it she placed it
on the edge of the stove and gave it
vigorous jab which caused it to ex-
plode in her hand. The result was the
thumb and first two fingers were
blown OF at the second joints.
In the meantime the boy was re-.
turning from school and apparently he
knew what the cap was for he told his
parents that he tried to explode it
on rock by hitting it with another
rock. The boy thought he could get
his fingers away before he would get
hurt, but in this he was not success
full, for when he struck the cap, the
left hand. which was holding it, had
the thumb and first two fingers blown
of in precisely te same manner az
those Of his mother. ~ 5s. .5 d
DR.. Gordon accompanied by Dr..
Forbes, was called in the afternoon
to dress the wounds of Mrs. Kost. The
doctors were able to save a part Of
the fingers and to make Mrs. Kost a.
comfortable as possible.
A few hours later DR.. Gordon received
another message from the same home
and at first 1t was hard for him to
believe that another member Of the
family had had an accident. He hur-
Tried to the scene only to find the boy
had come home with his hand also

And Paint
(From an Editorial in the st. Louis

(From an Editorial in the st. Louis
z Republic) 1
The cities that have made them
selves part of the "Clean Up and
Paint Up" movement are cleaner and
better cities because of 1t. Naturally
the paint dealer, the carpenter, florist
and others profit by such campaigns.
None but the pessimist will object to
this. They give value received and
more. The house that is painted and
repaired is the better for it. A neigh
borhood that has cleaned up and paint
ed up is better place in which to live.
Paint makes for self-respect and justi--
fable pride. 4 BILL. : Ii :.
II am heartily in favor Of Clean
Up and Paint Up Campaign here, like
those that have become an annual
civic institution in thousands Of other
American cities in recent years, and
believe something should be done
at once to start it going," said J. A.
O'Brien, President of the City Com
mission {$$2.'z' -
1.-The best evidence of proper COM
munity pride is the interest shown in
matters Of this kind. It is our duty
to promote conservation. and produc'
tion in every way possible con-
serve health and property as vel
as the more sentimental civic ideals
and to increase commercial and in
dustrial as well as food production
/ that all may be enabled as well as

As soon as the light would shine out some
patrol mosquito would buzz warning and
all his fellows would betake themselves to
ready-made trenches behind the picture mold
ing and stay there till we were exhausted in
the search for them.
From this safe retreat they would watch
US swatting with wet towels already dead and
hattened mosquitoes which spotted the walls.
These, Of course, we mistook for live ones.
After you have killed two or three hundred
mosquitoes in the average bedroom the place
becomes so freckled with them that you cam
not distinguish the dead from the living and
are placed at heavy disadvantage.
OF course, no one could sleep while so many
live mosquitoes were grooming glees and msdri-
gals about ones ears and boesting tunefuiiy
Of what they were about 70 do.
So We tried casing them. We closed all
the doors and windows, stopped up the chinkS

with rags and put charcoal burner in the
room before going 10 bed.
When we opened the doors we found the
mosquitoes gathered around the burner, admir-
ing the red glow from the embers within Il
and drying their humidity-dampened wings In
the genial warmth.
They seemed annoyed that our coming had
interrupted this pleasant method Of spending
an evening and, buzzing hastily, retired again
behind the picture molding.
In couple OF days one Of them found a
little water in an cid pickle jar in the cellar
and informed his fellows Of his find. OF
course, all the mother mosquitoes went down
there Immediately and reared thriving fami-
lies Of two or three thousands TO the family.
We might have killed most of them in time
but we didn't. When We saw them, on the dav
Of their graduation from the pool, swarmino
up stairs TO take their nocturnal stations IN
our bedroom we did the only thing that was
possible 10 do
We moved out and left them 10 feed On ,ha

dren, when young and small, through the
meshes Of our screens to grow up inside the
house, we sought to cope with them By in
stituting a reign Of terror.
Every night before bedtime we liz the lights
all over the house, so that all the mosquitoes
gathered therein could see what we were do
ing, and then went about with wet towel
noisiy killing or manning such Of them as had
parked themselves on the walls and ceilings.
Il was our idea that the CHASTITY spectacle
Of mutilated mosquito carcasses about the
plasterins would convince their surviving com
panions that the place was not fafe and that
their most prudent course was 70 get outside
as soon as possible.
We had forgotten that the mosquito is
fetalist. Insect after insect fell dead at the

THE MOSQUITO, PRINCE OF FATALISTs

II UNFORTUNATELY for humanity, the
mosquito is a fatalist. Like the late
Julius Cesar, he figures that death
will come when it will come There
fore his practice is to eat, drink and be merry
while there is still an opportunity.
A creature which is absolutely fearless
