Sensational and dramatic incidents often happen in the every day life of "? rev?n?6 officer or of a sheriff who is out looking for bootleggers. One of the most exciting and thrilling hap* pened when Sheriff B. R. Brown and a deputy got to the river at ttaneys ferry just as the ferry boat had pulled off with a car and two men whom the sheriff had good reason for believing were bootleggers. The sheriff determined to catch the men. There was no boat near, so he dived in and swam to the middle of the river, caught the sides of the ferry boat and pulled himself in, arrested one of the men and put handcuffs on him. While he was doing this the other decided that he would beat the sheriff at his own game and do some swimming himself. So he dived off the boat and started swimming^downstream. But he reckoned without his host for the sheriff had his deputy on the bank and instructed him to follow along the bank if either of the men tried to get away. After swimming nearly a mile the man grew tired and came towards the bank and caught a low brush. The deputy was on his job and soon had him under arrest also. When the car was searched it was found -that there were 30 gallons of ? -a n 11 white liquor in it, in iu o-gauvn n^o. 0 Reading is An Accomplishment Reading is an accomplishment which is acquired only by persistent practice. The near illiterate man reads a word at a time, slowly and laboriously. After doing a considerable amount of reading, almost everyone learns to take in groups of words at a glance. Finally, skilled readers find no difficulty in reading simple matter, such as fiction or articles on subjects with which they are more cr less familiar by paragraphs or even pages. Immanuel Kant, the philosopher, said he coqld digest any book in an hour. His biographhers say this was keen and the art of reading was so highly cultivated in him that he could take in a page of printed matter as rapidly as most of us take in a word. o Fly Catecism. Where is* the house-fly born ? In filth, chiefly in horse manure and outhouses. How long is the cycle of his birth? About ten days, from the time the egg is laid until the mature fly is born. What are the steps in the transfor mation from the egg to the fly? The egg, the maggot, the pupa, the fly. Where does the fly live? Where there is filth. Is there anything too filthy for the fly to eat? No. Does the fly like clean food too? Yes, and it appears to be his delight to wipe his feet on clean food. Where is his favorite place of feeding? The manure heap, the garbage can, the privy vault, and the spittoon. Where does the fly go after leaving the manure pile, the garbage can, the privy vault and the spittoon? Into the kitchen, dining room and bedroom. What does he do in the kitchen, dining room and bed room? He wipes his feet on the food, bathes in the milk and annoys the sleeper. o Had The Kaiser Won The War. According to the Berlin correspondent .of the Manchetser Guardian, an interesting discovery has just been made by one delving through the archives of the German Foreign office, 4 A_?nf * 'the neacp terms" written by fcvrn?v, v..v x the former Kaiser in the spring: of 1917, shortly after America entered the war. At that time the prospects for a German triumph was regarded as bright?in Germany at least. The U-boat warfare was at the height of its effectiveness, Roumania had been conquered, Russia was hors de combat and von Ludendorff was getting ready for the great drive on the western front which, it was confidently expect ed, would deliver the fininshing blow to France and England. America's entrance was viewed as unfortunate but the war office felt confident, and so assured the Kaiser that the war would be over before the United States could assemble, tr.u'n and transport an army to France, even assuming that it would be possible to evade the submariine menace. So it is hardly any wonder that the Kaiser, cocksure of victory, sat down and wrote out the following terms that he expected to impose on his adversaries as the price of peace. Germany was to get the rich coal fields of Longivey and Brie in France. Germany was to get the Belgian coast. Germany was to g^t Courtland and Lithonia?this at Russia's expense, of course. Germany was to get the Azores. Germany was to get the island of Malta. The throne of Roumania was to be filled by Prince Joachim (one of the Kaiser's sons, who subseqently com mitted suicide). An indeminity of forty billion dollars was to be levied on the United States.
