Magnet Draws Needle .£?:• From Brain of Baby Pottarille, Pa.--A nine-month-old baby seemed recovering In a hospital after a sewing needle, lodged upright In the center of its brain, had been removed by means of a strong magnet Mrs. Jennie Harvey several days ago saw the threaded end of the needle protruding from her infant daughter Rosanna's skull about three inches above the left eye. Then the needle disappeared. At Pottsville hospital an X-ray showed the location of the needle in the baby's brain. Dr. J. B. Rogers selected the spot on the baby's skull to which he thought the topmost end of the needle was nearest. He applied a powerful magnet and the needle came through the baby's scalp, blackened but Intact There Is no explanation of the needle's presence. . r;."

CORALIS STRICKIAND, her father, Billy Hannaford, and Jimmy Crosp sat on the afterdeck of the City of Miami. Within a few hours they would dock at Tampa. Suddenly Jimmy chuckled and resumed the conversation where it had dropped. "Why, William here, bloated aristocrat, couldn't do a day's work to keep from starving!" Billy flushed. '-Can It!" he said. Jimmy burst out as if suddenly inspired: "Why, I'll bet an even thousand right how that you can't leave this boat with a fiver in your pocket and land in New York by your own efforts !** Billy hesitated and his Hps tightened. It was a dirty trick to get him out of the way and leave Jim a free hand with Cora lie. Yet, before her, he couldn't back down. , "Well, I'll take you up," he said shortly. These preliminaries explain Mr. William H^nnaford's presence, the Want this?" asked the head of the agency, and handed Billy a letter. "Please send another man to Bright. Orange Ranch:--one with backbone this time. HARDY JACKSON." Billy looked up. "Why the backbone?" be inquired. "Well," said the other frankly, "there seems to be a grudge against the fellow that runs the place. Whoever It is the neighbors have a grudge against him and are trying to drive them off--the man and his daughter T--but the two of them's plucky and have stuck so far." "I'll take it," said Billy. After a dusty tramp he reached the ranch. As he stepped on the veranda a gray-haired man appeared in the doorway, at his side a young girl who Billy decided offhand was one of the prettiest he had ever seen. "I'm from the agency," said Billy. Jackson looked puzzled and the low voice of the girl broke in. "We want a laborer, dad," she said. At this moment a huge care drove up and a stocky man climbed down. "Take up my offer yet, Jackson?" he called. "No, I won't!" returned 'Jackson flatly. "Intend to hang on--in spite of all that's happened." And there was a peculiar emphasis to his last words. Jackson turned to Billy. "Corns in," he said.

"The latest stunt is night riding to intimidate us," said Jackson. "Night riders!" repeated Billy, thoughtfully. "We ought to be able to manage them. Let me see--tell me about it first and then--well, I'd like to get off a telegram." With the sending of the telegram Billy lost his wager, but in the light of the adventure which seemed ahead of hln) he regarded the loss as trivial •Dear Jimmy--you win. Have given up attempt to beat it to New York. Meet me at Grenoble Hotel. <Jood tittle game up my sleeve. Need your help. * "BILLY.". The night riders -came at midnight Billy and Jimmy and Hardy Jackson worked feverishly from the moment dusk fell. Scarcely, in fact, were the preparations complete when they heard th^ thud of distant hoofs. Presently la the distance appeared eight weirdly attired figures, who filed slowly past Billy's hiding place by an outlying tree. When the last one was t»y Billy pulled a rope which, suspended over a high branch, dragged across a wire behind them, a wire that was barbed and charged. A startled oath broke froia ona of the horsemen. "You're trapped!" yelled Jackson out of the darkness. "You're riding on dynamite!" yelled Billy. "Prove it, Jim !" Jim, some distance away, threw a. switch. With a deafening roar the dirt flew in a cloud and the horses became almost unmanageable. "Dismount, one at a time!" demanded Jackson. Totally unprepared for the inception they had received, the m€h saw nothing for it but obedience. Hands up, on the veranda, their cap/ tors regarded them. "You loo* d--n silly," said William. "We intend to march you into town in the morning, unless--" and he spoke directly to the man he had heard make the offer to Jackson the day of .his arrival--"you prefer to of fer Jackson what paid for the place and a good-sized bonus to boot to pay him for all (his annoyance. The choice the man made was the only one possible. As for Coralie, she heard all about the affair from Jimmy, and, although Jimmy's arm was about her at the time and his ring sparkled on her finger, there was a wistful look In her eyes, as perhaps there always is when a woman hears that au old-time admirer has transferred his admiration. , "Yes," Jimmy was saying, "Billy is going north with them. It is plain t» see that Shirley worships the ground he> walks on and--well, ball. ev£ me, old Bill s la luck." USOUIDGOUS BIO BUSINESS libra than thirty million Americana take to the open road every summer. More than three millions of them visited oar national parks in 1928, and government officials have arranged to care for at least a half million more this season. More than thirty millions visit state parks, state for ests and other public recreational and scenic areas. The tourist business has become one of the biggest businesses in America. In fact, the income from this source exceeds the income from agricultural products in a number of states today "We have more state parks than any other state," proudly boasts the resident of Michigan, "and we harvest a bigger annual crop from the tourist trade than any other state." He is right, but New York has by far the largest acreage devoted to this purpose. "Oh, you do? Are you sure of that?" asked his friend from Wisconsin. "You probably don't realize that the Badger state has a tourist business of $200,000,000 annually, and that with the way we conservationists over there are doing things we soon will double it. Why, since the Izaak Walton League got on the job in our state things are just hopping along. Watch Wisconsin!" "Is that so?" rejoined the Michigander.' "You evidently don't know that we estimate the income from our outdoors at $250,000, 000, and that we too, have a lot of active Walton ians in our state. You don't have so much to crow about." Just then a Minnesotan came along, and the two friends told him about the discussion. He couldn't refrain from getting into the argument. He reminded them that last season Minn esota harvested a tourist crop of $90, 000,000, and that when the plans of the Waltonians in his state get all of their program under way the tourists flocking to that state will make his companions sit up and take notice. Why don't you know/' he said, "we have almost twice the income per acre from the water area in our wonderful lake state than the farmers have from an acre of farm land? Now put tftat in your pipe and smoke it!" . He went on to say that Colorado estimates her 44tourist crop" at $50, 000,000, and that a number of other states collect from five to twentyfive millions annually from this source. Yes, it truly is a new, big business, which is growing larger and more important every year. The American people are beginning to put a dollars and cents yalue on their outdoors, and it is high time they did so. Everybody benefits, physically spiritually and financially. \ ; "x »• ,y; - • .?*r u - ;, f. y r.xv%pi* M Nearby aad Yonder .... by T.T.HUUtf The Largest Gold Mine BACK in the mid-seventies a mad gold rush to the Black hills of South Dakota--that region over which two Indian tribes, the Crows and the Siouxs, fought desperately until the lattec. won in a final clash near Battle mountain and It finally passed, by treaty, into tiie custody of Uncle Sam --claimed the attention of the universe.

As a matter of fact, the largest producing gold mine in the United States and the one from which has come the hulk of South Dakota's production, Is located at Lead in the Deadwood district Its shafts range from 800 to 2,400 feet in depth and it contains upwards of 00 miles of tunnels, drifts and crosscuts. This great Homestake mine has produced more than $200,- 000,000 worth of the yellow metal, continues to produce it at the rate of $6,000,000 to $8,000,000 per annum and still has something like 13,000,- 000 tons of ore blocked out and remaining in the mine. As a side line, this mine also produces considerable sliver--82,000 ounces, for instance, valued at approximately $5,000,000, in 1920. (A. IIW, WMtcra Ntwipipw T7nlo«.) & $ EXCAVATING 00. ? - ' A.

When the king opens parliament la person the Vlee-Chantberlala has to await hia majesty's return to the palace.
