Baby of Ray Williams Badly Burned by Scalding Water.

The year old boy baby of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Williams, of near Alx, suffered some quite severe second degree burns about both legs from the knees down to the feet Wednesday. 1 The little tot climbed up by a washing machine and pulled the plug out, releasing the scalding water which poured over the parts mentioned. The family physician was called and fpund the burns quite severe and the skin scalded entirely oft in. several places. No permanent injuries will probably result but the little one will be some time recovering from the accident. Chas. Orders, of Reynolds, and L. E. Wills, of Medaryville, who have b >en working on the Sternberg dredge, and who completed the work of tearing down and packing the dredge at the Gangloff farm, went to their homes today to await warmer weather when they will go to Missouri Valley, lowa, to work on another ot the Sternberg machines. Vernon Sanderson, Who has been here for the past two weeks with his friend, George Michael, left this morning for St. Joe, Mo., where he will visit relatives for the next week. He will be joined there by George in about a week and together they will go to Monte Vista, Colo., where they have been working for’ some time. George will return here on March Ist and move with his mother, Mrs. Laura Michael, to her farm which will be vacated by Julius Huff and family soon after his sale on Wednesday, Feb. 9th.

L. H. Markley will hold his public sale on the Chas. Malchow farm, just west of the corporation on the county farm road on Wednesday, Feb. 2d. He will move to North Dakota, where he has rented a farm and where he considers the chance for a hustler to be first class. Mr. Markley came here from Illinois several years ago and has made some money as a tenant farmer and his removal from Jasper county will meet general regret. His sale will be a good one and should attract a large crowd. 1 Are you bashful and afraid to ask your lady friend if she loves you? If you are, take her to Philadelphia and have her tested on a Phthymograph. first aid to the bash'ul man. Take her on an unsuspecting visit to the laboratory of the psychological clinic of the University of Pennsylvania, have her place her hand in the machine and then step into an adjoining room and await developments. While she is thusly standing sotne one will pronounce your name to her and if she loves you the machine will register a faint line with an upward inclination because of her emotions when some one softly calls you Reginald or Adolphus or whatever your name is. If she loves you not the line will incline downward and she will need some more wooing in order to create the proper emotions of affection which the machine registers. The machine hag been tried and is pronounced an entire success.
