whenever his business would permit.
One morning not long ago, ashisear
was bowling along the street ata pret
ty fast rate of speed, a little child who
was playing on one of the paTdnenta,
started for the other side of the
aired, apparently without seeing tha
on-rushing car.
Stephanove clanged his bell with all
his might and the child, instead of
heeding it as a warning, gae ane
frightened look at the csr and stood
atock still in the middle of the track,
paralyzed with fear.
Immediately Stephanove applied the
brakes with all their force. The car
jolted and bumped and slowed down,
but the motorman and the horriflel
spectators saw that it couM not be
stopped before it reached the child.
But Stephanove did not lose- his head
for an instant.
Letting go of the brake and the mo
tor, he leaned far over the front of the
car and just in the nick of time caught
the frightened little form inhlaarais
and lifting it from the ground held it
there until the ear stopped.
There was a loud shout of relief from
the spectators, and Stephanove has
been a hero everainee.

To him it does not seem reaaarkabla

for seven years in order ta ostein the

Fifteen years ago Joseph Haaga ar
rived in Hut u- county, Kan., with five
cents in his pocket. He went to work
for a farmer, with whom he remained
five years, saving something from his
wages each year. At the end of that
time he started farming on his own
account. To-day be owns S00 acres of
land and has it stocked with a fine herd
of cattle.
A manufacturer of farm machinery
told a gathering of farmers that if ho
treated the machinery in his factory
as they treated that which he made
for them, he would soon be a bank

implements exposed to the weather
accounts for much of that which is
alassed as agricultural loss. In im

business enterprises the operations of

Chickamauga.
"Tha federal troops had reached
the top of the hill, and tha confeder

of trees, fell over behind loga and

in their effort to escape Yankee bul
