SHERIFF WOULD NOT BE BEAT.
Pulls a Daring Stunt and Captures
Two Men and Liquor.
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.

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.
