Famous "Deadwood Dick'" Lived *nt
• Died in Full Appreciation of Hia
Great Popularity.
L
Dead wood Dick Is dead. IDs real
name was Richard Bullock, and be
died most conventionally at an ago of
aeventy-flve years In a hospital at
Glendale. Cal.
Dead wood Dick should have IteeD
the happiest of men. Few men cue
pass twilight years Illumined by the
flow of their past. Few men are
privileged to read hemic lies abou*
themselves which are founded on a
modicum of truth. Aclilll’es never
rend the “Aencld.” Satan never read
"Paradise Lost.” unless lie had t*e-
rosed It since Milton’s day by the fitful
flames of Ids plntonlc abode. Sieg
fried never scanned the “Nlboltinr-
lied.” The g mi lest heroes of the
greatest lies by the greatest liars have
met their end believing they would he
unhonored and unsung by posterity.
Not so with Deadwood Dick. His
unga was at his elbow these several
decades. All he had to do was to
take down one of the volumes over
which the hoys of a generation or two
ago pored to realize what a great man
he had not heen. And nil the time
he had the consciousness that he real
ly had passed wonderful days on
fountain and plain, hauling gold by
stage through perils created by nature
and by man—that there was enough
of the heroic to Justify the modern
minstrel.—Cincinnati Tlmes-Star.

/ The lasting friendships made by
MAXWELL
are due to fine steels
You never forget the lasting
qualities of fine shoes, fine
gloves, or fine furniture. • They
linger in your memory.
So it is with a Maxwell. The
lasting friendships for this
remarkable car multiply day
by day.
These are friendships built
upon steels, fine steels.
Steels that equal, pound for
pound, those in any car built.
They are steels that make
possible that wonderful com
bination of light weight and
great strength.
For a Maxwell is built to
be light in weight. A light
ear means economical trans
portation—if its steels stand up.
Therefore, only those steels
that are of brute strength com
bined with quality go into a
Maxwell.
That means paying the very
top price for its steels.
But it has earned ever-in
creasing friendships for
Maxwell.
It has given impulse to
Maxwell sales. It has spread
all over the world ready ac
ceptance for Maxwell.
Reduced to figures, it shows
nearly 400,000 Maxwells now
in operation. 100,000 more
in 1920.
Yet this number will supply
but 60 per cent of the demand.

PEAT ESTABLISHED AS FUEL
In Denmark It Is employed to Furnish
Power for Many Lines of
Big Industries.
In 1910 peat established Itself 0* •
tuol more firmly than ever in Den
mark. It is used now by nearly all
the Industries, by the private rail
roads and in the country district*,
•.'here it is practically the only fuel.
Twelve million peat bricks were taken
.’rum the marshes in the Odense dis
trict In 1918, mid while figures are not
available for 1919, It Is estimated that
the number was considerably larger.
The electrical works of the town of
‘JVemlbcrg have successfully used
peat gus instead of petroleum. As a
locomotive fuel It proved to have some
disadvantages, requiring a larger boil-
;tr 11 ml giving off many sparks.
Peat producers have complained
that the government's maximum price
yn this article lias made its manufac
ture difficult. There have been a num
ber of failures. However, the quality
of pent lias been greatly improved
during the last five years, and more
lias been learned of its possibilities.
It will therefore undoubtedly figure
much more tlmn previously as an
economic factor In Denmark.—New

Physique of Country and City Boys.
Under the selective draft law, regis
trants were given two physical exami
nations, one by the local draft boards
and another by the army surgeons af
ter the men who passed the local
hoard examination reached camp.
Analysis of these recorils of physi
cal examinations shows Hint the coun
try boys made better records than
those from the cities; the white regis
trants better than the colored, and
the' native born better records than
those of alien blr^h. These differ
ences are so considerable that 100.000
country boys would fund-di for the
military service 4.790 more soldier*
than would an equal number of city
boys. Similarly. 100,000 whites would
furnish 1.240 more soldiers tluiu would
uti equal number of colored. Fi/inlly,
100.000 native born would yield 3.."i00
more soldiers than would a like num
ber of foreign. The importance of
these figures may be appreciate! by
noting that 3,500 men Is equivalent to
an Infantry regiment at full war
strength.

The setting for the tale is La Jolla,
• aniaH town near San Diego. It Is a
place that boasts of great swimming
and many other attractions, besides n
museum. A little maiden, whom we
will call Nellie, was passing the tun
seum with her mother. Both were
newcomers in the town and were tak
•ng their first sightseeing tour. Nellie
glanced up at tin? sign in front of the
museum—“Man-eating shark. Fifteen
cents admission.” So the two passed
on. Two or three hours later, mother
and daughter came back by the safu»
route, and again passed the museum
The sign, of course, was sllll there
Nellie could not be silenced. “Is thaf
man still eating the shark I” she asked.
"! should think he would get tired.’’-
