TREE WAS ONCE A HANDSPIKE
Old Cottonwood at NoM* City, III.,
Has Interesting History—Wim
“Planted by Boy In 1815.
At Norris City, HI., there Is a tree
known ns the "vaultmg-pole cotton
wood” that ha» an Interesting history
which Is told by the American For
estry Magazine (Washington) as fol
lows:
Hosea Pierce and a boy comrade re
turned from the war of 1812 to their
homes, near Norris City, In the spring
of 1815, and on January 8 of that
year they hnd helped General Jack
son whip the British in the Buttle of
New Orleans.
These boys both attended * In::
rolling on the old Pierce farm that
spring, and ns they were returning t«*
the bouse after their day’s work made
a wager who could vault the fur:lie-t.
using their cottonwood handspikes a*
vaulting poles. They both l< ;t their

handspikes sticking In the soft <•:
where they had vaulted, and dm
the spring rains of 1815 they I
Hook root and lived.
One of these trees died ahout
years ngo, but the other Is still li\
pnd Is 105 years old. This tree
phout thirty feet in circumference,

playhouse for children.
CLOUDS ARE EARTH’S VEIL
i If Seen From the Moon They Would
! Appear as Mere Film Separating
the Earth.
The Inyer of cloud covering the
earth Is relatively very thin. If, for
example, we could examine the earth
from the moon we would doubtless
ace a veil of cloud covering llttji
more than half the surface. At that
distance the clouds would have no
texture, the earth would appear
swathed In an irregular sheet of
formless vapor, through which, from
time to time, the land and water areas
could be seen.
The cloud cover of the earth la most
attenuated; it may be compared to a
film, for It Is supposed to be less than
one-elght-hnndredth of the earth’s di
ameter in vertical thickness.
The thinness of the earth’s atmos
phere may be more clearly compre
hended If we realize that the relative
thickness of the cloud layer on an
eight-inch terrestrial glolm would he
about one-hundredth of an Inch. Tet
It Is In this thin belt that clouds form,
so that It Is seen our weather Is pro
duced within limited confines.—The
Ace.
It is well to speak the truth and
trust in the Lord, but at times it is
also to be at safe distance when you
do it.— Social Circle New Era.
“The rich man with nothing to do
gets awfully tired. The poor man
with nothing to do gets awfully hun

The officers of this Bank desire to co-operate with
all ambitious men and to assist them in every possible
connection.
They know that a man’s character and credit go
hand in hand.
If you have an established account here and have
handled it correctly you have a CREDIT NOW that
is of value to you.
If you have not such a credit the time to start one
is NOW.

BY COMPARISON
“You advertise this as the be3t
hotel in town,” said the man who had
stayed overnight,
“It certainly is,” replied the clerk. |
“Weil, that may ire a boost for the
hotel, hut it’s a terrible knock for
the town."—Boston Transcript.
It’a always cheaper to
paint bafora its needed than
afterward. Takea less paint.
Coats leas to do the painting.
Fall weather is ideal for
painting. Sun not too hot.
Dries slower and will last
longer. No pesky flies to
disfigure it
Painters, too, are not so
rushed, and will spend more
time on the work.
And when you buy your
‘paint don’t begrudge the few
cents difference between a
cheap paint and a paint that’s
cheap. The cheap paint isn’t
cheap at any price.
The paint that’s cheapest
is cheap because it goes far
ther and costa lesB to make it
go. Such a point is Lowe’s.
Besides, it lasts longer and
looks better aa long as It
lasts.
Come in and ask for book
let, ‘‘Figure Your Painting
Costa With a Brush—Not a
Pencil.’’ It’a free. So is the
color card.

"These Rats Wouldn’t Eat My Best
Grain,” Says Fred Lamb.
It’s hard to keep rats out of a feed
j ..store. Tried for years. A neigh-
j boring store sold me some RAT-
' SNAP. It worked wonders. Gathered
up dead rats every morning. Bought I
more RAT-SNAP. Haven’t a rat no\y. j
They wouldn’t eat my best grain
when 1 threw RAT-SNAP around.”
