Bost, salesman for the Gastonia Furniture Company, was painfully injured and had a nar row escape from possfble death Fri day night a short distance West of the city, near Mr. C. W. Boyd's, when the Ford delivery cur he was driving struck a washout and .veni over an embankment, p. He was se verely bruised on the leg, shoulder, face and hands. One wound, on his shoulder, required a number ol stitches from the surgeon's needle to dress it. Mr. Bost says that his machine did not turn over, or if it did it must have made a complete sumersault. When he regained con sciousness he was sitting at the steer ing wheel with it gripped tightly in his hands and the machine was up right on the ground below the fill. He was able to be out Saturday morning but carried the signs of tne accident with him. He considers his escape from more serious injury re markable. Wasn't the Missing Boy. For a while Friday night and early Saturday morning it looked as if Gastonia might get on the map as the place where the now famous Glass kidnapping case reached Its climax. But it turned out otherwise. The officers believed that they were about to secure and return to his parents thei Glass child who was kidnapped by a band of gypsies In Pennsylvania last May, nearly a year ago. sheriff Davis and severa.1 de puties and local policemen went 10 the gypsy camp near Linwood Col lege "early Saturday morning, before the crowd had broken camp, and made an investigation. They found a child which fitted the description of the Glass child in practically every particular except as to the color of its eyes. They decided It was not the missing boy, who has been so widely sought, and let tne crowd go. One of the members of the crowd was an Indian. They claimed that they were en route Safe Medicine for Children. "Is 'it safe?" Is the first question to be considered when buying cough medicine for children.

Obtainable everywhere. Adv. will take the ugly spots Opposite New Postoffice from Oklahoma to Washington They passed through Gastonia going east later in the day. Heating the Game. Mr. Miles Hanna is about the luckiest man we've seen. And it is due to the fact that he is getting col ored eggs without having to dye them. Sunday one of his ducks, pre sumably an Indian Runner, laid an egg that is almost entirely black; rather it is mottled, and, as far as appearances go, might have been dyed in the ordinary way. Mr. 'Han na has twenty ducks and if each one of the twenty follow suit between now and Easter he will be relieved of the necessity of purchasing any dyes. He is hoping, however, that the ofner 19 will be kind enough to furnish him something of a variety in colors, as twenty black eggs in a row would not lend much to the gal ety of the festal occasion. His only explanation of the phenomenon is that the ducks and perhaps the chickens have heard of the scarcity of dyes and are simply showing what they can do when necessity drives them to it. Death of James B. Glenn. y Mr. James B. Glenn, a brother of Mr. J. L. Glenn, of this city, died in a hospital at Columbia. 3. C, on Saturday. March 25, following an illness of eYeral months.

The Progressive Farmer. In traveling over the upland South we constantly see farmers al most wasting their time on poor hill sides while rich bjack bottom lands on the same farm, lands capable of producing threenimes as much per acre, are not in cultivation. It fre quently happens that labor expend ed on a poor hillside is not giving the laborer a return of more than 50 cents a day for his work, where as labor expended on the rich bottom lands would pay for labor possibly two or three dollars per day in net profiits. Let's get busy now on the waste areas and put them to work. Patchy, irregular fields not only mean lands that are not working for us, but they mean, too, that we are being kept from using on our farms the horse power and labor-saving implements that are necessary to maximum prof its. Why not aim in 1JH6 to have the big, broad, open fields that are such a delight to the eye and that mean good farming? GOOD FOR COLDS. Honey, Pine-Tar and Glycerine are recognized cold remedies.
