A little child of Mr.. and Mrs.
George Guthrie, who reside near
First avenue, wandered away from
home this morning and was picked
up on the south side by Chief OF
Police Otto Harmed, who noticed
the child walking about the streets
and suspected that one OF her years
would not be out without an older
person unless she had run away.
The little girl was brought up town
and looked after by Mr.. Harmed
until those in search Of her could
be located. When a child is lost
for even short time it is well to
notify the police department as
many anxious moments may be a
voided in this way. Those who
find child will naturally notify
Mr. Harmed or he may be of great
assistance in locating the stray.

A Famous Man

The originator of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery for the
blood, as well as the "FayOrite
Prescription" for women, was DR..
Ray V. Pierce, a practising physi
clan in Western Pennsylvania right
after the Civil War. He early
moved to Buffalo, N. Y, and es-
tablished The Ipyalids' Hotel, then
he put up his home remedies in the
Worlds Dispensary, where they
were carefully prepared from roots,
banks and herbs, and placed them
with druggists all over the United
States.
For over half a century, DIR.
Pierce's Discovery, for the blood
has been sold in larger quantities
by druggists all over the United
States than any other medicine. DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is tonic in its effect on the stom-
ach and digestive apparatus; an
alternative in it's action on the
blood, liver and skin. 1t increases
the appetite, STIMULATES the diges-
ton, enriches the blood, clears the
skin of eruptions and blemishes,
and makes both men and women
feel as they did when they were
young and care free.
Ask your nearest druggist for
Doctor Pierce's family medicines,
in tablet or liquid form, or send 10
cents for a trial package of tab
lets to DR.. Pierce's Clinic, in Buff
falo. n. Y.

Indian Relic
Is Uncovered

In excavating the foundation OF
one of the houses Milton f. HUI
burt is building in South Park,
Reedsburg, this season, a very Pc
culiar and interesting discovery
was made in the cellar bottom.
In Swimming off the lower layers
of sand and clay in the cellar the
shovelers came upon circular area
of black earthly material about four
feet in diameter. Surrounding
this is stellate fringe of red pig
ment. Within the circle the earth
is deep black, in sharp contrast
with the color of the surrounding
earth. eR
The outline is too perfect to have
been caused by freak of NATURE
and it must have been the work OF
man. It's depth below the present
surface gives it great antiquity, and
it doubtless is a relic of early In
dams or even of some prehistoric
race uE
What purpose it served or why It
was constructed is a mystery lead
ing back into the remote and misty
past.
In this region have been found
many flint spear and arrow heads
and other stone implements.

The Daughters OF Adam and Eve
Tho omission OF two little words
spoiled an answer to a question
whether Adam and Eve had any
daughters and of course resulted
In an erroneous answer.
The answer should have been
The Biblical narration does not re-
cord BY NAME any daughters. OF
course Genesis V. states that
Adam "begat sons and daughters"
The only offspring mentioned by
name were Cain, Abel and Seth: the
daughters are not named.

Q. When were diamonds discov-
cred? From where did the first
known diamonds come?
A. The small uncut octahedral
diamond crystals set In a very few
Roman rings OF the 4th century, A.
d. which are in the British Mu-
scum, represent the only positive
evidence that the diamond was
known to the European world in
ancient times. Some indirect evil
licences such as references in litera-
ture seem to indicate that small dia-
lnonds were sent to Europe from
India. Prior to the discovery of the
Brazilian mines, India and Borneo
were the sources from which dia-
monds were obtained.
G. Do two teaspoons make a
tablespoon in measuring for cook
ing?
4. According to information on
household weights and measures
issued by the L. S. Bureau of
Standard, three teaspoons equal one
tablespoon, level measure for each.
@. Or what particular species of
male tree is the tree from which the
wood known as "Birdseye Maple" is
obtained?
A. II Is not species of the
maple but a condition Of the tree.
i 1t is generally supposed that this
form is caused by buds that do not
| mature. 1t is rather unusual, and
therefore the wood is valuable. 1t is
found wherever maple trees grow.
Q. Does the United States Civil
Service Commission hold examina.
tons for clock repairors in the Gov
eminent service?
A. Such examinations have beer
held, but none are pending at pre-
sent.
@. How old is Zane Grey, thu
novelist?
A. He was born January 81
1875, and therefore will be 81, year
cid next January.

a pair of silk hose sent to Scot
land? Would the duty be paid here
