The word is of Dakota.origin. Of the explanations given as to its significance, that of Rev. M. N. Adams, an early mission- ary to the Dakotas, is without doubt the most probable. In his opinion the present form is a misspelling of the word ok ok gk sk ok ok ok ok Yk ok ok ko ok ok ke ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok “watanwan,” meaning “fish bait,” or “where fish bait abounds. ”’ The word is ac- cented on the first syllable; the “a” of this syllable has the sound of *“a” in “father,” and the “a” of the final sylla- ble is sounded like ‘a” in “fall.” KK KK KKK KKK KK INFANTILE PARALYSIS. An epidemic of infantile paralysis is rapidly spreading through eastern states. The following are the symp- toms and the treatment for infantile paralysis: SYMPTOMS—Infantile paralysis starts with a cold, which usually takes the form of a running nose and frequently sore throat. Often a slight fever and stomach disorders accompany the cold. Ninety per cent of the cases in the New York city epidemic are children under the school age, but adults are not immune. The patient will complain of weak- ness. A slow paralysis will follow affecting at first the arms and legs and possibly one side. After two weeks the paralyzed parts will begin to waste away, while the stiffness gradually diminishes. TREATMENT—The instant a child is suspected of having the disease a doctor should be called. The patient should be completely isolated. The limbs and parts of the body affected should he given absolute rest. Paralyzed arms and legs must be bolstered up with pillows and the weight of clothing kept from them by means of hoops or some such de- vice. After the paralysis leave the limbs the most important curative measure is massage and training of muscles affected. The contagious period lasts twen- ty-eight days, during which the strictest caution must be observed against spreading the disease. Only one person in addition to a physician should take care of the child, and the nurse and doector should wear special garments for sick room attendance. Several Democratic-papers in the east are urging President Wilson to appoint Ex-president William How- ard Taft to the vacancy on the su- preme court bench, occasioned by the resignation of Charles E. Hughes. President Wilson could make no bet- ter appointment. Mr. Taft is emin- ently fitted for the place on the bench, The Pioneer has recently installed a casting box, saw trimming machine and other equipment and is now able to cast from mats. The new:equip- ment will enable the Pioneer to use more illustrations than it has been able to use in the past. The San Francisco Bulletin says that the upshot of the European mili- tarism is that it takes an incalcuable amount of money, a huge number of dead or crippled men and whole cities of widows and orphans to make a very tiny bit of history.

Eynon, a local machinist, will begin to market a carburefor that will, it is claimed, gladden the motorist’s heart by run- ning his car with coal oil instead of priceless ‘gasoline. Eynon accidently discovered the principle by which he devised his carburetor. One day he spilled some oil on a rag and carelessly brought a hot iron near. Vapor was given off. The problem was solved. Eynon wrapped four inches of thin ‘wire around a few shreds of as- bestos and sent an electrical current through the wire. The asbestos act- ed as a- wick and the heated oil va- porized enough oil to start the en- gine. As soon as the engine is started, the electricity is turned off and vaporization is maintained by the burning of a little oil in a com- bustion chamber. A test proved that a car could be driven 63 miles on four and a half gallons of coal oil. Heavy cars fitted with the carburetor have made 11 to 12 miles on a gallon of kerosene. FAME CAME TO HIM ™ ALMOST OVERNIGHT Lem Spillsbury. Lem Spillsbury awoke one morn- ing to find his name in every news- paper in the United States.
