INSECTS FIRST IN THE FIELD
Many Of Mankind's so-calIed lnven.
tions and Accomplishment Have
Been Copied From Them.

One cannot read the work of NJ.
Fabre without being struck by the fact
that man in many Of his inventions
and mechanical accomplishments, has
after all been preceded in those ac-
complishments by insects.
The bee and the wasp used hypo-
dermic needles long before we thought
of them, and the bee used forlnic acid
as an antiseptic to preserve it's honey
from fermentation.
The spider made the first suspen-
sion bridge, and certain kinds Of that
insect have been able to construct
their own airships and a workable sort
Of diving bell. The bee manufactures
q wax that we cannot today even imi-
tate, and worm is still unrivaled in
the manufacture Of silk thread.
To these skilled artisans might be
added the ant, which makes tunnels
and subways; the mason bee with it's
cement work and the great peacock
moth which was able to call its kind
from long distance by means Of some
Invisible agency, long before man had
dreamed Of the possibility Of wireless
telegraphy.

Young Man Is Ac-
cidentally Shot

Rugby Tribune: Edwin Kathen, %
years old, is confined to the local
hospital with a gunshot wound in his
right leg and right arm, as result
of the careless handling of a shot
gun by an acquaintance last Sat-
urday afternoon.
The accident occurred on the Ed.
O'Dell farm, about mile north of
Knox, where both young men were
employed on threshing rig. While
kathen was bending down cranking
a Ford car, his friend standing close
by was attempting to eject the shells
from double-barrelled shot gun.
In some manner the weapon was dis
charged and the charge of shot, after
passing through the fender of the car
struck Kathen in the arm and leg,
inflecting very painful but not dan
gerous wounds, unless infection sets
in.
The injured man was at once
rushed to the docal hospital and latest
reports are that he is getting along
in fine shape.

"What bas?" replied the first youth.
"The dinky handbag-it's mine-it

the victim.
The indomitable spirit Of Grand

there was police whistle in the pref

back into the shadow Of a tree and
blew 1t shrilly.

dashed across the street and straight
into the arms Of policeman, who
greeted him cordially as well-known
offender, and carried him away to jail.
Eleanor told her story in shaky tone,
but she did not mention the matter Of
the beaded bag, and the prisoner was

bag. Have you formed any idea Of
how 1t came to be in my pccket?"
Eleanor laughed sarcastically.
Grandmother Bradley would have
done thnt with just that little dip Of
the pretty dark head. "The car was

''C0T MAD," STAYS

Now Para|yzed and Can't.
QUARREL RUINS LIFE
During Idle Years Railroad Has Come

Phones Are Installed, but She
Nasn't Seen Them.

Upton, Iowa.-Thirty-eight years
ago Mrs. Alexander Wickham of Tip
ton "got mad" and went to bed. I'm
aever, never. never going to get up
again." she declared. A little while
ago she changed her mind and at
tempted to get out of bed and walk.
But she found she was paralyzed from
her waist down.
Mrs. Wickham was young wife
when she went to bed. She Is a
whlte-haired woman now. She is rich,
but she gets little enjoyment from her
money.
How Mrs. Wickham retired to her
bed to remain the rest of her life Is
an odd story. One morning she was
cutting bacon for her breakfast. She
and her father-in-law were quarreling.
Old Man Wickham made some remark
she resented. She laid down her
butcher knife and started for the door.
"Where are you going?" her husband
asked.
'Im going to bed, and I'm never.
ACNSAs ASNCA. 6oIA6 " 6CI up again.
answered the wife as she walked into
her room and slammed the door.
She stayed in bed all that day. Her
husband thinking to humor her,
brought her meals. The next morning
she refused to get up. Again the hus-
band brought her meals. The third
day was repetition of the first and
second. So were the fourth and the
fifth and the sixth.
"She'll get over It," said the neigh
bors when they heard of what was
going on over at the Wickham farm.
Years Of Reading.
Mrs. Wickham spent her time read
ing books and writing poetry. After
thirty-eight years of such reading she
is undoubtedly the best read woman
In all Iowa. Also she probably has
written more poetry than any woman
In Iowa.
Neighbors came to see her after she
took to her bed. But she refused to
see them. Gradually these visits

The Tailored
Green Coat
By cLARISsA MAcKlE
D 1879. by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate

Eleanor saw the broken chain of her
shopping bag dangling from the pock-
ct Of smartly tailored green topcoat.
Buttoned inside the topcoat was a tall
man, who seemed in a hurry.
She did not cry out-that was not
the Bradley way. She simply left the
crowded car and followed the man In
the, green coat. He walked rapidly,
and the girl was ready to cry with
vexation and alarm as she saw her
money vanishing. Eleanor's quick,
pattering feet stopped short as the
man suddenly paused under a lamp
post and whirled about. His right
hand thrust into his pocket as If In
search of weapon, and then re-
NAMED there. His other hand awk-
wardly went up to remove his hat at
sight Of the girl lingering timidly by.
"Y6u were following met" he asked,
shortly.
Il was pursuing you," she said in
an uncertain tone.
"Well?" AS he waited for answer
to this inquiry, Eleanor had the i'm
preston that he was surprised about
something else. His rather good-look-
ing young face wore an amazed look.
Il want my handbag, If you please"
she said, just as Grandmother Bradley
would have done under like circum-
stances.
"What have got to do with itf'
"You should be ashamed of your
self" she cried in sudden indignation.
"You know, 1t is in your coat pocket
this very moment"
Then his right hand came. out Of his
pocket and with it came Eleanor's
pretty beaded bag with the cut and
broken chain dangling. His face was
a study In angry astonishment. She
saw that his gray eyes flashed like
steel as he faced her.

he said slowly, "but from what you

ceased and she was left severely alone
Her husband called doctor.
There's nothing the matter with
her." said the physician. "She can
get up whenever she wants to-" But
she didn't want to.
Specialists from Des Moines were
brought in. They could find nothing
wrong with the woman.
The village grew into a good-sized
town. A railroad was built through the
place. Mrs. Wickham could hear the
whistle of the locomotives as they
passed near her house.
Never Saw Telephone.
When the telephone exchange was
set up In Upton the Wickhams had a
telephone installed. Mrs. Wickham
never saw it. 1t was In another room.
Styles in clothes did not interest
her, she didn't wear any clothes, ex-
cept her nightdresses.
Mpton grew until it almost inelosed
the Wickham farm. The farm became
very valuable. When the father-in-law
died, her husband became sole owner
Of the place. But he gave up farming
and went In to raising collie dogs so
he could be at home all the time and
could look after his wife.
Two years ago the husband, worn
out with thlrty-six years Of constant
waiting on his wife, died. Mrs. Wick
ham went to the funeral. But she
had to be carried. She could not
walk.
But. she does not. express single
