Wolls Store Youug Man Twirled Around
Shaft and Lives to Tell The Story,
Wolf's Store has a young man,
Floyd Bressler by name, aged twenty-
five years, weight one hundred and
pixty-five pounds, that lives to tell
how it feels to be twirled around a line
shaft, and how one can undress him-
sslf without bothering to loosen but.
tons and pulling your shirt off over
your head.
Mr. Breasler is employed in the saw
mill operated by William Bowersox,
at Woll’s Store. Last Baturday he
was adjusting several nuts on the
machinery, when a set screw caught
his clothing, and then a second and a
third set screw fastened itself in his
clothing, It was a hurried perform-
ance; and Mr. Bressler is not able to
say how often he was twirled around
the shaft, but when the belt ran off the
pulley and the line shaft and the
human wheel stopped their revolu.
tions, Bressler was divested of all his
clothing except his shoes and stock-
ings. When the set screws first took
hold of hia clothing he was dressed in
three shirts and as many pantaloons.
These were now in shreds, and on
many places on the victim’s body
there were bruises,
‘here was only about two feet of
space between the line shaft and a
heavy beam, but Mr, Bressler was able
to make the revolutions without
being seriously irjured. How he es-
caped death is a mystery, but he did,
and teils the story.

“Servants attend them night and day,

they sleep curtains are drawn that
they may not be disturbed. When

“Once when taking tea with a rajah
in his garden 1 was amused to notice
that as he moved about among his
guests a servant followed carrying a
cup, which he kept always within
reach of his master's hand. The rajah
would take a sip of tea and with per-
fect unconcern set his cup down in
midair, With unfailing dexterity the
saucer was placed under it by the
gervant In time to avold accident.
“One prince had suspended from the
ceiling a silver couth, which was kept
gently swaying while he slept or read.
Another had a beautiful vine covered
arbor, where artificial rain was made
to fall while the nabob sat under a
marble canopy in the center, cool and
refreshed, with the rest of the world

Hardy Shetland Ponlea
The cost of raising Shetland ponies
is remarkably low. These little ani
mals are natives of a rough and semi
barren locality, where they are used
to rustling for every mouthful of
their food. When they are first
brought over to this country they don’t
know the difference between oats and
rice. They are complete strangers to
a grain ration. In the Shetland is
lands they run out the year round,
without any shelter, and pick their
ving from between the rocks. For
generation after generation these po-
nies have had to make this kind of a
struggle for existence, and the result
is a race of hardy little animals that
are able to thrive on the coarsest food
and to stand an amount and degree
of exposure that would put an ordi-
nary American horse out of business —
