HELPED IN GOING THROUGH
Motorists Got to Their Destination, but
"Papa" Had Had Lot to
Do With Il.

A party of tourists was attempting
to reach Pend!eton on the Pendleton
pike between Indianapolis and Pen
dleton when one of those things that
happen to motorists 50 frequently on
country roads happened. 1t was the
day after heavy rain and the ground
was thawing rapidly when this party
descended hub-deep in good, old
Hoosier mud. Through some trick of
luck, assisted by elbow grease, the
automobile was rescued from the mud
hole and the party about-faced to in
quire at the nearest farmhouse Of an
other route to Pendleton.
A small country boy came to the
door and seemed very reluctant to
give information as to the condition
of other roads leading to Pendleton.
"Have any other machines been go
ing through on this road?" the boy
was asked.
"Sure, they all have been goin'
through. Papa's been takin 'em
through for 81 apiece. You guys is
Is the first customers we have lost" re-
piled the boy with deep frown.
A look around disclosed that papa
too was disheartened at the good luck
of the motorists in getting out on their
own power, because he had his team
hitched up ready to increase his mud
hole income for the week.

SAD FATE OF HENRY JASON
band, Example Of the Loss Of
Personal Property.

Henry Jason, the noted henpecked
husband, Is another example Of what
the loss Of personal liberty can do to q
man. When the fathers of our constitu-
ton passed the law relating to matri-
mOny they forever put the shackles on
Henry Jason. Henry's zero hour came
when P0rtia Strong led him to the altar
and the justice Of the peace tied the
fatal knot. He has tasted no nectars
of liberty since, Bert Walker writes
in the Topeka Capital. But Henry
has not the strong and forceful charac-
ter Of Old Bill Shiftless, so he sub
mits without whimper. He tried
whimpering once and it put him in
hospital for two weeks. One day when
Portia was away attending meeting
Of the Advanced Thought club, which
was very busy emancipatiug woman,
a long-haired leader left a pamphlet
at the Jason kitchen door. Henry
stopped long enough to read the front
page. The first line read: ut is
high time to administer rebuke and
to check the forces which are try
ing to overthrow our constitutional
immunities and liberties" Just then
Henry heard step on the front porch.
He thought 1t was POrtia. He was
at once stricken with palsy and fell
in dead faint. 1t was two hours
before he came to and was able TO
burn the pamphlet He was still
shaking like an aspen leaf when Portia
returned at midnight. Had Henry
Jason not been deprived of his personal
liberty when young man his name
would have gone down on the pages
of history alongside those of John L.
Sullivan and Jack Dempsey.

Iona Cross-Country Hike.

Father Time is the only spectator
at this celestial sporting event, but he
must find it thrilling one. In 40
0OO-year voyage from the stars to the
earth, pulses of blue and yellow light
run a neck-and-neck race, according
to a bulletin issued by the Harvard
College observatory. Travelling $780,
600 miles second, the two kinds of
light do not differ in velocity as much
as an inch a second, the bulletin says.
In the entire journey neither gains as
much as two minutes.
This conclusion has been reached
by study of faint variable stars in re-
mote clusters, one of the brightest
and nearest of which is designated
Messier 5. The distance from the
earth of this ball shaped swarm of
thousands of giant stars, just calcu-
lated by Harvard astronomers, is
announced as 1872 kiloparsecs or near
ly 10000 light years-a cross-country
hike of more than two hundred thou
sand trillion miles.

CITY WATER BETTER,
But Water Company More Culpable
Than First Reported.

Than First Reported.
While the official report of the
last analysis Of the Ellsworth city
water has not yet been received, a
representative of The American, act
ing for Health Officer Woodruff,
who is ill, talked with the laboratory
at Augusta this morning, and learned
that the water had cleared up, and is
not now dangerous for drinking pur-
poses, but is unpleasant because of
decayed vegetable matter
Something else was learned, too,
that places the local water company
in more unfavorable light than at
first reported. The analysis of a
few weeks ago, referred to in The
American last week as being unfa-
vorable, and with regard to which
the water company did not take the
public into it's confidence, was not
the first bad report received on the
water.
Four analyses in succession, ex-
tending away back to the middle Of
last summer, have showed the water
unfit or unsafe for drinking purposes
without boiling. And the water
company has kept silent about it.
Dr. Woodruff said this morning
that undoubtedly the unusual preva-
lence of serious intestinal disorders
in Ellsworth during the past few
months was due to the city water.
He thinks the source of the trouble
is the pumping we'll, which he be-
lieves is not secure against river
water.
DR.. Woodruff has been i'll the past
week, but assures The American
that steps will be taken for thor
ough investigation of the water sup
ply.

platinum scale; now France, the jeal-
Gus guardian Of this piece of metal is
alarmed to find that 1t has heightened

The only explanation available Is that
the annual cleaning of the bar may
have been responsible for displacing
the platinum molecules. 1t will be
carefully watched for the next ten
years and the cleaning may have to
be abandoned.
