Long Neck

Our aged citizens of this commun-
itv saws that the electrical and rain
storm which occurred Saturday al
ternoon was the severest they nave
ever witnessed. Wind, rain, hail,
lightning and thunder which lasted
about one hour made this storm one
to be long remembered. Lightning
struck in the timber many times, but
no other damage has been reported.
Acres of lands were like ponds OF
water. On Sunday rain storm alone
came; again the water stood on the
ground about the same depths OF
Saturdays rain. 1t made things dull
for the holiday of the fifth which was
a very threatening and disagreeaole
day.

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. HUGH S. CUMMING Surgeon General, United States
 Public Health Service.

Many persons, long after the days of Jeuncr, still regarded disease as a scourgo from God. Prior to the dis coyeries made in the latter half of the 18th century. physicians could do little better than theoTize as to the cause Of disease.
 Then came the immortal work of Louis Pasteur which was carried on from 1857 to 1885. Pastaur success fully disproved the belief almost universal at that time, that putre- facion. fermentation and similar processes were the result Of what was spoken of as the Spontaneous generation" of lower forms Of life that is-that such forms could origi- nate de move from inanimate matter.
 Now putrefaction and fcrmcnta- ton are known to be processes which closely resemble certain disease pro cesses in the human body in that both arc due 10 the growth and countless multiplication Of micro scopic germs.
 Pastaur's work included the dis covory Of the specific causatiyc agents Of certain well known dis eases of man and of the lower ami mals,
 From time 10 time other workers have discovered the specific germs which produce such diseases as cholera, diphthoria Ieprosy, malaria, typhoid fever, tuberculosis and many others.

 But my voice showed no indica- ton of my feelings as I asked the girl, still ignorant of my identity to connect me with Miss Fairfax.
 Edith's voice, musical, yet betray- ing both anxiety and irritation, an- swered briskly, with no trace ot the pretty, Yanguid incidence which had been hers when. young and par ticularlv ineffective student of art she had come from her beloved Nir- ainia to New York city.

Where The Pigeons Went
By Thornton N. Burgess

Who sits in judgment must beware Lest prejudice make him unfair.
 Old Mother Nature.
 At first Former Browns Boy. sit ting on the end of the shelf on the face of the cliff where was the home of Killer the Duck Hawk and Mrs. Killer, was so delighted with having reached the nesting place of theso rare birds, and with seeing the baby Duck Hawks, that he gave little thought to anything else. But presently he began 10 examine Inc surroundings 10 discover if possible what these baby Hawks had been fed. Almost the first thing he dis covered pigeon feather. He knew it instantly for q feather from one of his own pigeons. He found a few other pigeon feathers on the shelf beside the young. There were some blue jay feathers and some other feathers that he was not sure about.
 Climbing down, he looked on the little ledge immediately below the shelf where the nest was, and there he found more pigeon feathers.
 There was dark scowl on thc face of Farmer Browns Boy. For moment he was very angry. 80 this IS where my pigeons went to- he exclaimed. Well, I guess you've eaten all the pigeons of mine that you ever will eat Now that l am up here I'll just put you young Killers out of the way and there will be no more killing of my pigeons to feed you.'
 He climbed back Hp 10 tho little shelf or rock. whore tho thre" ynuug Duck Hawks were. and once more sat down on the edge of the shelf, his feet dangling off into spare. Again there came 10 him that feel ing that he was sitting on th" cdg" of the world. And as he sat there n change came over him. lIc forgot those young Hawks. 10 feed whom Killer had taken his pigeons, He began 10 dream. or cours", ihoy were daydreams, tul sometimes da}- dreams are quite as wonderful as sleep dreams.

At any rate, he went out immediately after ward and did not come back for an hour or so. And he knew the work was piled 10 the sky here. But if it wasn't you, I'll lake back all the maledicuons l piled on your head and put them upon the other womaus"
 She was trying 10 be facctious. but she could not disguise the jeal- ous irritation hich had been hers at the thought of my taking Dicky away from the office, and which was now transferred 10 the woman who had summoned him by tele- phone.
 could have told her that it vas Lucia Meredith who had sent him that peremptory summons, and that if was one in no way prompted .by any personal interest in Dicky, put l W dS llhllN lpbo 'il'"6AL AO lt7 . nore her tentative question.
 "But I saw him less than an hour ago" I said, "and he said he was co.ding straight to the office.'
 He did come back here," she returned. but just before you call ed someone called him-it was a mans voice this time. the girl said and Dicky beat it out of here as if ne were going 10 fire. Do you want 10 leave any message? I do hope, Madge, you don't need him for any thing today. We're so terribly be- hind here I'm afraid we never shall catch up.'
 Her tone was exactly like that of an old-time harassed housewife who needs her husbands help in the spring housocleaning and re- sents any Aggression on the part of her spouse. But I kept my resent ment out of my voice as I answered.:
 "No, I don't need him for any thing exc ept a telephone message. But please ask him 10 call me as soon as he gets into the office.' Copyright. 1926. by Newspaper Feature Service, Inc.
