fireside talk was very differ nt to what it is now Old time people used to talk about kinfolks and genealogies andghost and witches c In 1835 there was a man lived in Casey county by the narie of John Rooks His daughter had a spell on her bewitched Dr Christorpher Reynierson who was the witch Doctor of the community was sent for to prescribe for her After a careful examination he diagnosed the case a spell laid on her by a witch In the examination the Doctor used a glass book and slate He used the looking glass to see the witch and when he was through he said it was a decided case of whichery He pre scribed a certain number of tickets and wrote something on each one and di rected that three be taken each day for 6 days On the seventh day they were neither to lend or borrow anything On the seventh day an old lady by the name of Gall away came to borrow something and it was at once decided that she was the witch that had put the spell on the girl Then to further justi fy this decision they placed an awl un der the chair and if she made two efforts to get up she then certainly was the one that had bewitched the girl Then to further test the matter when the people in the neighborhood would see her coming they would cross straws in the door steps and if she could not step over them then the one with the spell would get well Old Mrs Owens of Casey county was ccused of being a witch and a picture was made of her and put on a tree and shot with a silver bullet and it was expected that the witch would soon die But Mrs Owens did not die but the next day she was found at home spihing on ia flax wheel She didnt die for a long time after that In 1850 there was a man by the name of Banister Gregory who lived in Marion county and believed in witches and he believed a witch could shoot a hair ball for miles and shoot through people So he believed he had been shot by one in the leg and it made abad sore Some times the ball of hair would not go through the limb and they would find it in the wound and if they could get it out and burn it the wound would get well People used o believe they could turn people into horses and ride 100 miles arid back the same night There was a man who eo live in Russell county by the name of old uncle Joby Kearnes who emigrated to this country from North Carolina and he told my father that before he came to this country the witches would turn him in to a horse and ride him to Russell county and back home the same night And he showed my father the very spot where they would hitch him and where he would paw the ground and bite the bushes The old man would tell that story arid seemed to believe it was true My rather did not believe in witches but lots of people in his days did believe in them and there may be somewho still believe in witches but they are very few in our days The old time people told so many ghost stories that the children were afraid to go out after night I heard my father tell this story about ghost He said when he was a young man going to see his sweet heart who afterwards became my mother one Sunday night when he was returning home the road led by the Bethel grave yard where many ghost had been seen and he was Reeling a little uncom fortable as he approached the grave yard on his way home at a late hour of course Well when he came near the grave yard he stepped lightly and breathed easy and looked with intense enterest He all at once saw an im mense white sheet rise up right out of the midst of the grave yard thats what they called them then and it be gan to move slowly with a kind of brqadeningout appeararce He could see it move up and then down a little in a kind of waving motion It was the first real ghost hbhadever seen and he had been very skeptical on the subject all the time but that settled the question with him for that was sure enough a ghost The path led right through the grave yard close to where the gho appeared to be but he did not go the road that night out found wag around another way He made quick time from there home He went quiet ly to bed but did not sleep any that night and did not tell any one of his experience But the next morning he wasuperlyanadreaSEdhiII1 land- went back to the grave yard to see if he could find anything to explain tHef ghost mystery For he did not want to btlieye in the reality Of Jhaghpst

time after his term in prison was begun he escaped and for nearly twenty five years he had been a fugitive from justice He went to the mountains of Colorado in order that he might r be able to elude the officers of the law and there for nearly a quarter of a century Jie lived an honorable Christian life One day ashe was wending his way down the mountain side he heard the scream of a womanHe she was pleading for heard the dull sickning thud of a lick He broke the brush away with his mighty hands and ran up the mountain side toward a tent from whence the scream had issued and there prostrate upon the ground he saw the bleeding bruised form of aF beauI tiful white girl A burly was bending above her E Tom Atkins had in his veins the fire of the Southern people and in the twinkling of an eye his revolver flew from its scab bard then a quick sharp crack of the gun and the brutish fiend sprang high into the air ran tottering to a precipice and fell 500 feet below into the surging waters of a mountain stream Tom pillowed the bleeding head of the woman upon his ragged coat and bathed her temples with water from the springs of the Chills She opened her great blue F jeyes and looked up into Toms i semin very fervently for saving her life She told Tom that she and some of her friends were spending the day in camp and that all had started out that morning to climb the mountains but that she being slightly indisposed had returned to the tent Tom re mained with her until the party returned and then he helped to carry her down the mountain where the wagon was quartered Before departing she took Toms big brown hand and said Come to see me and there was a meaning in her voice that Tom understoodTom to see her he wen again and again and one day in theautum twenty years ago the P little stone churchhouse at the foot of the great towering Rock eswas decoratedwith ever greens and blossoms and from beneath an arch of mountain ferns Tom Atkins was married to the girl he had rescued from a worse than death Tfate year latera few days the birth of a baby boy the pretty little woman of the hills closed her eyes to an angels touch and Tom Atkins was left alone with his infant son About

But just a few weeks ago a letter came to Tom from Mississippi which said Dear Tom Come home mother is dying and she wants to see you He had grown a beard an time which had brought to hi much of suffering had changed his body into that of man He did not believe he would be recognized And with his son he went to the cot of hi dying mother She saw himanc while in the agonies of death sh said Oh Tom I am glad you are here IThese words from the very death were fatal for at the bedside of the dying woman there was a creature who remembered that a reward had been offered for Tom Atkins and be fore the dead mother had hardly I became cold he went to town an informed the officers of the law the sheriff and his posse came but Tom Atkins and his son de fied them to the uttermost They looked into the dark eyes o father and son and saw a mean ing there as easily understood as letters of leaping fire and like cowed pups before the open jaws of mighty Mastiffs they slun away into the shadows

merce and labor The worlds annual consumption is 600000 tons and the share of the United States is 220000 tons annually or 540 pounds to each inhabitant This is more than the consump tion of Germany and Russia com bined four times the consump andd e con sumed by France Astria Hun gary Belgium Italy Canada Mexico and Australia In indi vidual consumption Belgium out ranks this country with a per
