GIRL AND SCALP REUNITED
Was Left Behind on Farm After Accl-
dent When Young Woman Was
Rushed to Hospital.

C%oyington, Ky.-Thelma Baker, six
teen years old, of Newport, and her
skull and scalp are reunited. They
were parted for a period of several
hours and by a distance of many
miles.
Thelma was interested in the work
ing of a corn grinder. She was peep
ing into the machine when her curls
got entangled in the grinder. The ma
chine tore the girls scalp from her
head. She was rushed 20 miles to the
Boothe Memorial hospital here, but in
the excitement her scalp was left be-
hind. There was a dash at breakneck
speed back to the farm and buck here
again. Surgeons by a skillfW opera
ton, replaced the scalp on Miss Ba-
ker's head, using adhesive plaster to
bind the wounds.

WINTERS LIKE YEcTEaYEARS'
All Delusion That They're Becoming
Warmer, Says United STATES
Observer.

st. Louis. Mo.-There is little change
in the seasons year in and year out,
according to Montrose w. Hayes,
meteorologist of the st. Louis station
of the weather bureau.
Forecaster Hays declared the fire.
Quent expression: ut doesn't get as
cold as it used to we don't have heavy
SHOWS any more" possibly Is due to the
fact that experiences of childhood are
more vivid.
1.-THE. winters of Il youth seemed at
that time to be shot through with zero
temperatures and to abound In heavy
SHOWS. In retrospect the acuteness Of
memory remains or fails In accuracy"
he continued.
I'VE have winters that are colder and
summers that are hotter. but though
these do not work exactly in cycles,
they occur so rarely as not to disturb
the average. The winters of 1884 to
1883 were very cold, colder than usual
and the memory that supports the say
ing that winters now are not what they
were maybe is of the persons whose
youth was in that period.
"But the fact remains that the cold
est winter in the memory of man in the
Middle West was the winter Of 1911
49,"

Oklahoma City.-John Running
Horse, ~full-blood Comanche Indian, his

in the city to take part in the Indian

went OF a tour of the clothing stores to
get raiment BETTING the occasion. An
e%nterprising shopkeeper displayed a
dozen overcoats, but none of them
caught Johns fancy. Spying a pile

they were more to his liking. Five
minutes later he emerged from the

trailed behind and viewed with evil

DoEs advertising increase the cost
of the article sold? Not neces-
sarily. For instance: A man has an
automobile for sale. He figures his
time at IS day. He starts out to
find buyer. He goes from house TO
house, but people are not interested.
He writes an advertisement and puts
1t m the paper, which does not cost
over ~. A number of people who are
interested get in touch with him at
once, and II he is any kind Of sales
man he can finish what the adyertis
ing started. On a small scale the
thing is perfectly obvious, and it
works the same on larger scale.
Advertising finds out those who are
interested. 1t gives them advance
iaformation about product so that
rome Of the salesmar's work Is al
rnady done for him when he calls.
1t stimulates a greater demand for
product, and this greater demand
means long mill runs on a single item. |
