DAREDEVIL L0P OF PETER
IK HIS FAMOUS FLIVVER
I It is la the cards that Peter Sher
man will not meet a violent death.
Moreover, Flate has decreed that
Pater's end will come calmly and
uescefuily, sayst the Cordova paper.
At. lcaut Peter absolutely refuses
to do the "daredevil" leap in s
"flivver" at the intersection of b
avenue and Water Btreet, even tho
acme twenty of his fellow, towns
men were on hand to witness the
stunt.
Peter Sherman drives a Ford
car in delivering: tenderloins, sau
sage and grood ctheer for the North
ern meat market.
While making his final delivery
hefoio nooa today Peter miraculous
ly escaped violent death when his
car Sot beyond control at the In
tersection of B avenue and Water
si'.»et, and It was surely ait
act of Providence that j he
was saved from a fall of 100
feet to the rocks below. Provi
dence was materially aided by a
thr«e-foot plank which extends ov
er Wafer street, and' upon which
the support of the railing' is fas
toned.
The projection held the car and
savrd Peter. As It was, the right
from wheel was well over the walk
when the car was stopiped.
Peter wa« calm amid the excite
ment, and evidenced not the least
fear when released by hig friends
who rushed to hla rescue. Stolid
and stoical, he stepped from ' the
flivver and received the coingratula
tlons of his friends.
A* the meeting of the town coun
c tonight a memorial will he
spread upon, the minutes praying
that a fitting monument be erect
ed on the spot where Peter all but
petered. Thus It la that Cordova
a'ra'n comee in for publicity.
In SVagway the town nuisance
leRi'.s the unsuspecting tourist to
the spot whore the notorious
"Soapy" Smith fell; in Anchor
age they will show you the! proble
matical spot where the next "Re*
putd'can President will drive the
golden spike upon completion! of
Would Almost Seem That This Womar.
Had Idea Sailors Never Washed
Their Uniforms.
The waiting room of the Long Island
railroad side of the Pennsylvania ter
minal was not even crowded the other
afternoon when four fashionably
gowned women, two of them carrying
large knitting bags, entered from the
train platform. The- woman who was
burdened with the iurgest bag immedi
ately led the way toward a bench
where an American seaman in the uni
form of the navy gat reading a book.
Without warning the women took seata
on either side of him and besieged him
with questions.
"I am so Interested In you sailor
boys," said the leader emphasizing the
"so."
"We're bo interested," corrected the
youngest of the four.
"My," said the third and apparently
next youngest, "you've been In the navy
four years. I can tell It by the stripes
on your sleeves. Have you been to sea
much?"
Toe man grinnea. ~vuiie a un,
answered.
Then followed a volley of (piestions
that would have bewildered an oracle.
The seaman was asked abouct the coast
of Africa and the cost of tobacco, the
climate In Brazil and the storms on the
Atlantic.
Finally the owner of the largest and
heaviest knitting bag ma<de herself
heard above the others.
"Ain't you a third-class gunner?"
she asked.
"Uh-huh," was the answer.
"And do you tell me that you've been
In the navy for four years?' was tha
next question.
"Uh-huh," said the seaman.
"Four long years," she commented,
"and my, how clean your uniform is."
The seaman when last seen was a
passenger on a train. He was "holding
his head.—New York Times.
Airplane of the Future.
We have no logical right fc» think
that our flying machines of tolay are
more than the crudest caricatures of
the airplanes of the .future, says a
writer in the Scientific American. 'We
engineers are a little apt to become so
engrossed in our Immediate difficulties
of design that we'do not see further
ahead than is suggested by our own
Ideas and make predictions for the
future that only follow along the lines
of progress that we can clearly see.
The writer has often been asked If
Jie thinks that flying will ever become
an ordinary means of travel. His
answer is that he does not think, but
that he knows it will become so. Ten
years ago to attempt to fly from place
to place was considered suicide; five
years ago It was an adventure; today
to many of us It Is a very ordinary
affair. A few years more and we shall
laugh to think of the airplanes of
which we are now so proud. We shall
shudder at the risks we ran and we
shall travel with comfort, speed and
safety. ■

are replete with, history and love

Cordova has many points of inter
est, rich in history and romance.
These particular points are the
pr'de of "the people. But even
th»t they welcome "Peter's Peril
Ions Plunge," for they are tired
of "pointing with, pride" to the old
est citizen; where Dooley lived
twenty years ago; Captain La

lery'3 public drinking fountains,
and so on down the line to "Red
N-els," the hero of the Mariposa
wreck.
Again Peter Sherman, the af
fable driver for the Northern meat
market is doomed to die peaceful
ly. Like Rube Marquard, Jesse
Wi'.lard and other celebrities, Pet
er is holding out for a higher
price, but Mrs. Nicholas, director
of the big vaudeville show, aanounc
es that Peter is weakening, and will
probably give a reproduction of
his stunt at the Empress theater
May 27.
The flivver was not damaged.
HOUSEWORK IS A
BURDEN
Women's lot 1$ a weayr one at
best. But with backache and other
distressing Jcldney Ilia life indeed
becomes a burd<en. Doan'a Kidney
Pills have made life brighter for
many women. Read what Mrs. Roll
Cookston of J809 E. First Ave.,
3ookane, Wash., says:. "The grip
out my kidneys out of order and I
suffered with a heavy; dull pain in
the small of my back which kept
getting more severe. Some days
i could hardly; do my work for it
v. as almost impossible to bend over.
Ji'y kidnes were wteak and an
noyed me ft great deal, too. I was
worried' because my feet swelled
and because of the puffiness uji
der my eyes. One box of Doan's
Kidney Pills gave me relief and
alter I had used two boxes I was
feeling fine in every; way." (State
ment given October 16, 1915.)
Ou June 8, 1917 Mrs. Cookston
said-: "I have had absolutely no
trouble with my kidneys since
Doan's Kidney Pills cured me and
1 reel better than I have in years."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't j
simply ask for a kidney remedy— (
g.-t Doan's Kidney Pills—the same
tha' Mrs. Cookston had. Foster
