News'arriers, on Sunday morning saved little Bud Jenvey from drowning on the water- front at the foot of Fourteenth. Little Bud, who is only 3 years old and a new arrival with his parents from Swift Current, has not been accustomed to playing near water and slipped in above his depth oif a log. The ti&le, at the full, was carrying him out to sea when George Tite, who is only 13 years old, jumped in and brought him to shore. A great deal of credit is due George for his plucky action in saving the little child from certain drown- ing. Neither the victim nor his rescuer were the worse for their immersion in the cold water.

Iinnsc Psis&crs, Pspcrhnngcrs nne Knisnslilllilg Reasonable Terms House Phoae Wcsi i.'17RS Peep O'sy Ms&hers & 29&h By Dr. Frank Crane The other day a small bny in Chicagn sivnllmv&d n nail to attract attentinn. The desire to be noticed follows men from the first breath to the last. It is a craving an real as the desire for food. This "&vill to be noticed" results in daily demonstrations, some fantastic and some tragic. In an eastern state a young man put several sticks of dynamite upon a railroad track. He said he intemled to rush out and remove them just as the fast passenger train appeared --thus making himself a hero. Unfortunates for his plan the explnsive wns discovered before the train appeared and he ivas arrested nnd sentenced to the penitentiary. Another young man told a thrilling story of leaping from the deck of a vessel and rescuing n drowning man. While he ivas in the ivater, he said, someone stnle four hundred ilollnrs from the pocket of the cont which he had stripped otf on deck. This last detail proved too inte&r.sting. It gave the story front-pnge prominence all over the roun- try. This publicity led to the discovery that there hnd been no droivning man and no four hundred dollars. The youth confessed that he had macle up the story to attract attention and to appear a hero in the eyes of his friends. Even in death the desire to attract attention has power. Many of the suicides in New York occur nt the 125th Street elevated station during the middle of the day. Those who leap from this platform land in the middle of a busy street. It is caid that in a town in Italy a guard has to be kept on a certain cIIII overhanging the business district to prevent suicides. The reason the spot was so often chosen is that those who leaped from it landed in the centre of the town be- low. Ever since--and probably before--Empcdocles chose to make a spectacular exit from life by leaping into a flaming volcano, men have sought to attract attention for n final brief moment by means of an unusual death. The "will to be noticed," when directed in lines of real worthwhile effort, has accomplished many of the great achievements of the world. But when applied to vain and useless demonstrations it produces only the tragic or the laughable. COAL COAL COAL WR Aiin 8&&LB AOEN7S FOii The l'amous Coalmont Coal.
