t>e but slightly injured. lie lmd shot
and seriously wounded Sheriff Miles
Keller just before he was hit by a
bullet from the revolver of a friend
of Keller.
Sheriff Keller was called last Fri
day night to Elsie where trouble was
aaid to have started at a dance. Upon
li's arrival in Elsie the sheriff went
directly to the dance hall, lie stepped
Into' the hall and ordered Motslnger,
apparently a leading spirit of the
row to put up his hands. Motsinger
was standing near the center of the
room with his hands in his pockets,
c Disregarding the demand of the
' sheriff Motsinger fired from his
pocket. The sheriff fell, wounded in
the stomach. A friend of the sheriff,

singer Immediately after the sheriff
fell'. The ball struck Motslnger In
the shoulder, took a downward course
«nd penetrated ills lung.
Sheriff Keller was taken to a hos

tion probably saved his life. His
stomach had been pierced twice and
liis intestines six times. He is now
sa Id to be recovering.

I The Best Cough Syrup %
is Home-made.
! Here's an ruy way *o me H. and 8
■ yet have the best rough remedy 3
you ever tried. 3
You’ve probably heard of this well
known plan of making cough syrup
at home. But have you ever used
itf Thousands of families, the world
over, feel that they could hardly keep
house without it. It’s simple and
cheap, but the way it takes hold of a
cough will soon earn it a permanent
place in your home.
Into a pint bottle, pour 2'/s ounces
of Pines; then add plain granulated
sugar syrup to fill up the pint. Or,
if desired, use clarified molasses,
honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar
«yrup. Either way, it tastes good,
never spoils, and gives you a full pint
of better cough remedy than you
could buy ready-made for three times
its cost. .... ...
It is really wonderful how quickly
this home-made remedy conquers a
cough—usually in 24 hours or less.
It seems to penetrate through every
■dr passage, loosens a dry, hoarse or
tight cough, lifts the phlegm, heals
the membranes, and gives almost im
mediate relief. Splendid for throat
tickle, hoarseness, croup, bronchitio
and bronchial asthma.
Pines is a highly concentrated com*
pound of genuine Norway pine ex
tract, and has been used for genera
tions for throat and chest ailments.
To avoid disappointment ask your
druggist for “2% ounces of Pines’
with directions, and don’t accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso
lute satisfaction or money refunded.

What Tracks in the Snow Told
By THORNTON" W. BURGESS.
If you wander in the snod.
Footpronts tell just where you ga
—Bobby Coon.
Unc’ Billy Possum was out of sorts.
He was very much out of sorts, That
hollow tree of Bobby Coon's was bet
ter than his own hollow tree. Unc’
Billy had been so sure that Bobby
was never coming back to it that
Bobby's return had been one of the
most hnpleasant surprises of his life.
He had had to give up that com
fortable house and now he must go
back to his own house. To get there
he must go through the snow, and
Unc* Billy was very much out of
sorts as he made his way home.
Now no one could walk In the soft
snow and not leave tracks. From
the edge of the Green Forest where
Farmer Brown's Boy had set him
free Bobby Coon had left tracks In
the snow all the way to his hollow
tree. He hadn’t thought anything
about these tracks. He had been too
happy In his freedom to think of
anything else. Had he thought of
them he might have been a little
worried.
Farmer Brown's Boy had watcbfd
Bobby Coon out of Right. Then he
had gone back to the barn to do
some work. "That little rascal prob
ably will go straight to his home.”
said Farmer Brown's Boy, talking to
himself. "I don’t know Just which
hollow tree he Is living in now. and I
guess this will be my chance to find
out. I don't want him to know that
he Is being followed, so I will wait
awhile.”
A couple of hours later Farmer
Brown's Boy started to follow Bobby
Coon’s tracks. They were very plain
in the soft snow and Farmer Brown's
Boy had no trouble at all In following
them. It was fun. At last they ended
at the foot of a big tree. Farmer
Brown's Boy looked up. He saw a
round hole. He knew then that there
was a hollow In that tree and that he
had found Bobby Coon's home. He
didn't pound on the tree to try to
make Bobby come out, as some
thoughtless boys would have done.
Instead, he took care to make no
noise. He didn't want Bobby to know
that he had been followed.
To make sure that Bobby was in
there Farmer Brown's Boy looked
around to see If there were any more
of Bobby’s tracks. Right away he dis
covered tracks leading away from
that tree. He bent over to look at
them closely. “Well, what do you
know about this?” he exclaimed.
"These are not Bobby Coon's tracks.
Here is the mark of a tall dragging
I'nc Billy Possum’* tracks.
in the snow. These are Unc’ Billy
Possum's tracks. As I live the old
rascal must have been In Bobby
Coon's home and had to leave when
Bobby returned. I wonder where he
has gone now.”
So Farmer Brown's Boy followed
Unc' Billy Possum's tracks. Th^y
wound In und out ninoung the trees
and at last ended at the foot of a
tree. Looking up, Farmer Brown's
Boy saw that there was a hole In thin
one also. There were no 1 racks
lending away from that tree, so he
knew that Unc’ Billy must be in
there. He quessed that this probably
was Unc' Billy's home, the home
where he had lived before he moved
over to Bobby Coon’s tree. Again ho
took care to make no noise. "Unc'
Billy will sleep belter If he doesn't
know that I know where he lives,”
thought Farmer Brown's Boy. “I've
learned two secrets from tracks In
the snow this morning. I wonder If I
can learn any more? I hope no one
else will find the tracks of Babby
Coon and Unc’ Tlllly Possum. I don't
believe this snow will last long, and I
hope It won't. Their secrets are safe
with me, hut they might not lie with
others."
