THOSE AUTOMOBILE EXHAUSTS.
There is absolutely no excuse for
the action of some autoniobilists, who
to attract attention to-iheir machines,
open up their engine exhausts while I
driving through the business sections
of The Norwaiks. This is a familiar
:rick, especially of new drivers, and
there is a strong feeling that it is about
time that the police take a hand in
the game. Outside of the annoyance,
which it is to the general public, it is
a danger to drivers of horses. All
fair-minded automobile owners and
drivers condemn the practice in se«
vere terms. The real purpose of a
muffler cut out, giving a free exhaust.
is to allow a motor to produce its full
limit of power, but there is a ques-
tion whether nowadays its use should
ever be allowed, except possibly on
the steepest hills.
THROWN FROM CARRIAGE.

upset, throwing the occupants and the.
contents out into the highway.
Mrs. Cari was painfully bruised, es-
pecially about the legs, and the little
boy had his face scratched. People
in the vicinity came to their assist-
ance.

You cannot exercise too much care in the selection of grain and
feed for your animals. Ready mixed feeds, made of a number of by
products or factory wastes may wisely be let alone, unless the buy-
er can see for himself out of Just what raw material the mixture
is being prepared. Low grade. damaged corn, shrlveled wheat,
peanut refuse and wheat screenings, containing many weed seeds.
are not infrequently found in such feeds but are not easy for the
buyer himself to recognize. Buy home ground feeds for Horses,
Cattle, Poultry, composed of the choicest grains, with corn, oats
and barley as a basis and fresh ground each day. A balanced ra-
tion. lower than oats in price and cost no more than many feeds
which could not be sold to feeders who apply a fair knowledge of
the art of feeding animals, with evidence of the deception regard-
ing the quality of the feed.

THE SIGN OF THE CROSS IN
RUSSIA.
The Russian is crossing himself all
day long. When he first comes forth‘
in the open air of the morning, it no
church he. in sl ht, from his own door
he listens for t a first sound of some
ball. then, turning towards It. crosses
himself with great fervor. to ensure a
blessing on the undertakings of the
day. lie crosses himself before and
after each meal. When you make a
bargain with him he crosses himself
that It may prosper. When the peas-
ant who is to drive you takes the reins
in his hands he crosses himself to
keep accidents away from him, and ev-
ery steeple he. passes will get the same
mark of respect. Sometimes the edificc
thus saluted is so far off that the
stranger wonders at the quickness
shown in discovering it._ and is often
at a loss to discern the distant ham-
let where it stands. In like manner.
the creep sitting beside you in any
publ c conveyance crosses himself ev-
ery time you start with new horses.
if you give a child a piece of money
the little hand is up in a moment to
make the sign of the cross, by way of
blessing and thanking you. No Rus-
sian ever passes a church without
pausing when he comes opposite to
Its center, to make the sign of the
cross. It is not alone the grave and.
aged who pause at these places. but
also the young and giddy. You have
Just seen some gray haired general do
it-but wait one moment; a laughing

until he has crossed himself at the
Saviour's picture. A man in any pub-
lic way, such as an inn keeper, must
always have a picture hung in» his own
apartment, in addition to that in the
public room, to which each Russian
turns before he sits down to cut.—
