The world wants ' the person who can keep cool, With a keen determination to win out it may be done. the ability we acknowledge the most essential thing the year round i3 for one to keep cool, keeping cool means exercising self control. Because people can-not keep cool homes have been broken up, family troubles are created and sometimes the peace and harmony of a com-munity are sorely tried. Most people make their best decisions when they do so in a cool frame of mind. Quick decisions may be alright, but a ngiht's sleep over a question is the best counselor. Had the European powers taken three weeks to consider their dis pute instead of three hours, there might have been no world war. Every lawyer's battle is a battle of wits and he who keeps cool is usually the winner. He who takes the witness stand and refuses to get flustered, helps his side of the case wonderfully. To keep cool is an art which all men are not capable, the person with an explosive temperament, whether explosive with rage or worry is unsafe to follow.

BROTHER ALSO SHOT Father Believed Both Boys were Dead and Fled, but Returned Next Day and Found Them Both Alive. Hastings, Neb. Hastings has the distinction of having the only living man on record ever shot clear through the body with nn Indian arrow, the arrow passing through his body and into the body of his brother, pinning the two together. He is Nat Martin. He is now a retired farmer, living In Hastings, seventy-fou- r years of age, strong and husky, and rather enjoys exhibiting the arrows, showing the wound in his side, and telling of the Incident. He and his brother, Robert, lived with their parents about 15 miles northwest of Hastings on a homestead. They had been with their father In a field all day making hay. It was to-ward evening when nine Indians rode up on ponies, bent on stealing the Mar-tin horses. The father, who was on one load of hay, began shooting, and. wounded two or three of the braves. One, slipping behind the wagon, and shooting through the buy, wounded the father. Father Wounded First Though wounded, he kept on shoot-ing as best he could as the horses ran on toward the house. The boys, riding together on a horse, started also for home. The Indians tried, to head them off, but falling, began shooting from behind. , The first arrow lodged in Nat's right elbow, wedging Its head In between the bones of the Joint, and the shat was broken off. The second arrow en-tered his back. Just under the shoulder-blad- e next to the backbone, passed through the right lung, enme out be-low the right breast, and stuck Into Robert's backbone, pinning the two together. ... k Escaped Being Scalped. The third arrow grazed his hip, making a slight flesh wound, and lodged in Robert's hip. Thus pinned together the boys rode on until faint from the wounds and loss of blood they fell from the horse. In falling, the arrow was pulled through Nat's body. The Indians enme up, thought they were dead or would soon die, and when one Indian suggested scalp-ing them, an old brave replied: "Pa-poose scalp no good. No honor to kill papoose." Thought Boys Dead. The father, seeing the boys fall and supposing them dead, took the other members of the family and fled for safety to Fort Keurney. Meeting a train of wagons he came back with them to recover the bodies of his boys. The boys, in the meantime, managed to crawl to the barn, where they were found next morning and their wounds &2-- f Thus Pinned Together the Boys Rode On. dressed. Robert lived until about 25 years ago. Nat Is still living here in Hastings. The arrows he proudly ex-hibits are the arrows with which be and his brother weie wounded, nnd the one that paused through Nat's body still has some of the blood stuins h the groove of the urrow shaft. CHEERFULNESS Be cheerful. The worst disease with which a man can be affect-ed is that of being a continual knocker or a grouch, it gives one a bum feeling to meet on a pleas-ant day men who are continually finding fault. Cheerfulness is almost as necessary as air, food and water. It stirs hearts as a stone thrown into a pond sends its ripples to every side, return-ing again and again, making the heavy load lighter and the dark road brighter for all. Let us one and all use our influence in mak-ing each other more cheerful. ; Speeding Up Production. Alice. "Why do you go shopping when you haven't any money?"
