The body of the youth killed by the train positively had been identified as the. Hinton boy by his father, step mother and relatives and had been viewed by a large number of school mates and friends, none of whom en tertained any doubt that it was other than young Hinton. Insurance ad justment papers already had been j signed by the company -which wrote 1 a policy on the boy's life. . The youngster, who ran away from home arid hud not been heard from since, was found L?y accident* at the home of his I a tie mother's parents at Smithsonia (la., near Hogart.

"Mississippi has a way of holding down speeders that is all her own, ac cording to Mr, J. F. Faulkner of Yorkville. "There art* no speed laws in the state," says Mr. Faulkner, "and on entering an improved road, you lire not confronted \vitH^ou?tiee t? t' the speed limits; but njere^ with a sign which says: 'lie ware thenunipers.' "Unless you have, been told, you do not know what this sign means; hut because of the unusual nature of it, it kinder sticks in your mind, until by experience you learn the real facts. "A long stretch of good road ahead and no cars or other obstructions ahead, you are tempted to hit them up a little faster and by the time you have got your speed up to say twenty or twenty-five miles an hour you take a sudden jump up to the top of the car and maybe get your head bumped. After this has happened two or three times you begin* to watch the road more closely and then you see what is the mutter. There is a little sign out at the side of the road saying 'Beware of the Bumpers," and fifty yards or so farther on,' there is a neatly rounded ridge rising up before you. Ah, now you have it. If you hit that ridge too hard you are going to get a jolt and instantly you press down on the brakes. "You can get along at the rate of fifteen or twenty miles an hour if you keep a careful lookout for theso bumpers, but if you don't watch the bumpers, you are going to break your springs or your neck? maybe both." ?York Rnquirei'. A diary, purporting to be that of Christopher Columbus, has come to j light in Mexico City, after having ' been lost more than 300 years. William Davis, negro, is held by the police at Red Bank, N.

Many dis tributors use it exclusively for demonstrating. What more practical proof could you want of its excep tional quality? Made in South Carolina Ever notice how many automobile agencies have "Standard" pumps? They are not always out to sell "gas". More often the pumps are there for their own convenience in demon V strating cars. Here are men who certainly are on the inside, men who can judge gaso line performance from A to Z. They want to show up their cars to best advantage and they know "Standard" Gasoline will do the trick. It's been no easy matter to bring "Standard" to its position of leader ship. It has cost, and is still costing, everlasting expenditure of energy and money to make it better and still bet ter. Only in that way have we been able to get and to hold the confi dence of car manufacturer, demon strator and general public. STANDARD OIL COMPANY [Aen?

Hungry Jellyfish Drive Herring From North Sea Brvmeidiaven.? -European lchthyoh> glsts have become greatly exercised by the diminished numbers of haddock and herring in the North sea, from which virions Iillipr.i'.innli'l'1" oh+ttfn thelr principal fish supplies. Several conferences have been 'held by those Interested In the Hah Industry to consider what steps may he taken to remedy the situation. The herrincj began to disappear three years ago, and the haddock some months later. Fish exports attribute the dimin ished numbers to Incredibly large schools of Jellyfish and various forms of sea nettle .which wAre swept In from the Atlantic o?Wn,ln 19'JO, when several changes were reported In the different Atlantic currents. The Jellyfish came in a Mood of warm water and made themselves at home at once, consuming the food of the herring in such great amounts that the herring were unable to subsist. When they began to disappear the haddock, too. began gradually to di minish, as it is upon the eggs of tho herring that the haddock exists during a great part of the year.

Specialists have come tn Berlin to investigate further, while there have been many letters and cablegrams from the tidied States and . England, where there have been epidemics this spring. News of I he discovery came from Prof. I'aul Krosch of the Itoy til Veterinary col lege, who has been working -on the problem several years in conjunction with Professor Dahmer. The new bacillus has not yet been sub jo 'ted to sufJIoicnf confirmatory tests to make It possible to say posi tively that it i< the linal solution of the difficulty, but medical Journals in ttormany. ami England have written ent husiasllc articles about it. and va rious authorities have ventured to pre dict that this enthusiasm has not been misplaced. According to writers mi veterinary subjects fit these periodicals, -the hoof and-mouth disease is supposed to have been a European malady for more than "J.oon years, though it was not until the Seventeenth and Eighteenth centuries that positive proof of iia presence was found.
