"“Couple o’ agents tryin’ to sell the boss two different kinds o’ ’cyclopedias,” said the office boy. SIOO Reward, SIOO. Tbe readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there Is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure Is taken Internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature In doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that It falls to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address: F. J.

What though your schemes have all gone wrong— j For Fortune is naught but a flirt; Go trudging along with a cheerful song And a smile that qpnceals the hurt Country Picnic of To-Day. Suppose you had been touring in an airship and had been spinning over Kansas in a light summer breeze. Suppose that you had noticed signs oi activity as you approached the little town called Frankfort. Picture your astonishment, says J. George Frederick in the Travel Magazine, on learning that there was an automobile fete bn that day and that several hundred farmers and their families were steaming their ears into town, until the streets of the town were quite blocked with autos! Your ideas of a backwoods Kansas town and the farmers would have a rude jar, for here was Mme. Farmer in a becoming automobile veil and a stylish tailormade suit taking tea at an afternoon reception—instead of ■working the butter churn, in a wrapper, or staring open-mouthed out of the window in a scared way when you steamed past in your auto. And there was her daughter, draped in the sweetest of summer gowns, talking of college days with a dapper youth with a fraternity hatband and positively the latest thing oft Broadway in neckwear! And that was one little unknown town in Kansas!

This movement to dehorn women's hats grows in favor. We suspect the hookworm Is blamed for doing a lot of things of which it is not guilty. —■ 0 Spokane has a woman policeman, but so far no one has reported a woman ice peddler. - With three nations racing for the south pole it is fortunate that Americans are nimble in their feet. T. R. Jr., who is to be married shortly, is well prepared. He has already learned how to beat the carpet game. Rubber is worth now almost half as much as silver, pound for pound. Here Is a chance for a more elastic currency.. ~ i_ - -■ This Is a pretty big country, and there are more than eighty millions of people in It, but there is weather enough for everybody. After visiting the north pole the Zeppelin airship expedition expects to “anchor behind Greenland.” Sounds like a nice cozy place to warm up in. London, with 40,000 children In the hunger line, needs to try something more far-reaching than reform of the house of lords for Its present troubles. The “Chantecler” umbrella has appeared. It would be an undoubted success if it would crow loudly when it was picked by another than its owner.

A New England woman detective is to marry a millionaire. Perhaps he thinks in view of the attacks on wealth, now the fashion, that a detective will come handy in the family.

. One aviator Is of the opinion that it Is just as dangerous to fall a hundred aa a thousand feet. But the man who falls a thousand feet will have more time to think of all the mean things he ever did.

According to a Chicago doctor, the dean of Rush medical college, the blame for certain affections which, when present in limbs and joints, are' commonly called rheumatism, should be laid principally on the torfsils, which, he says, should be cut out before the morbid changes take place in the joints. He adds that such an operation, together with plenty of sunshine and good food, will effect a cure. What a mistake it was for human beings to have tonsils, anyay.

A year or two ago an Ohio farmer, discouraged in his attempts to raise apples, was about to cut down his orchard trees for firewood. An officer of a neighboring agricultural college secured permission to take a part of the orchard and care for it in a scientific manner. This meant little more than careful,pruning and spraying, and the result last year was a net return, over all expenses, of nearly five hundred dollars. Nowhere is applied intelligence more productive of quick and abundant returns than on the farm.

Let the wife who is continually complaining at her husband because he isn’t earning enough to make It pqsslble for her to dress as well as the lady next door have a care. Let a wore} of advice be whispered to the woman who Is in the habit of finding fault with her husband because he says “them kind” or eats with his knife. Also let a gentle hint be passed along to the man who has become addicted to the habit of scolding every time he is asked to hook his wife’s waist; and to the man who never misses an opportunity to accuse his wife of extravagance merely because she buys enough hair to qualify as a waitress let a solemn warning be sounded. Justice Mills of the Supreme Court of New York has ruled that nagging constitutes good ground for divorce, and, accordingly, Mrs. Daisy Green of Yonkers has secured an annulment of the contract which bound her to Albert who found fault with her manner of housekeeping and her devotion to her relatives. Don’t nag. If you must have a divorce be sportsmanlike and go to Reno.

The Massachusetts youth who by day was a business employe of apparently exemplary habits and by night a burglar and, as it proved, a murderer, is a type of criminal that novelists and playwrights occasionally portray, though examples in real life are rare. It is a type criminologists have seriously studied, but only with the result of leaving the problem of dual personality involved an unfathomed mystery of human nature. The puzzle yet remains of the moral obliquity which diverts into criminal channels intelligence and capacity of the kind of which Spencer’s exploits as a burglar ■how him to have been possessed. But apart from moral considerations, the greater puzzle, seeing that he was determined to embark on a career of crime, is his voluntary choice of burglary, one of the most hazardous and least remunerative of criminal professions. Burglary at no time has earned its followers an income in any way commensurate with the skill required for its successful practice, let alone its risks. What have thirty-six years of. burglary profited the veteran cracksman with half a dozen aliases and a record of eight prison terms who was reported in the recent news as again oi«r arrest? None of tbs great bur-

glars of the past made more % bare living, and hedged in ae the pursuit now is by improved preventive devices and with bank burglary virtually a lost art, it affords only a precarious livelihood. Burglary is at present largely restricted to housebreaking a*4 offers no Inducements to •ambitious criminals, while it involves the constant hazard of capture or of murder as the alternative. Spencer could certainly have done immeasurably better at legitimate business, even though he was receiving only the wages of a shipping clerk.

Every annual report made to the Btate commission In lunacy of New York shows an Increase in the number of insane persons in State hospitals and licensed private asylums out of proportion to the increase of population. Probably the same showing is made in other States, though the increase is not so pronounced anywhere as in New York. The obvious explanation of this la that New York, with its great population and complex social conditions, abundant revenues and high state of scientific training, has been able and willing to make more extensive provision for the care of insane persons than any other State. New York has two hospitals for the criminal insane, in addition to those for the ordinary insane, and is now contemplating a special hospital and industrial colony of Inebriates. If this latter hospital should be established, it will Increase the apparent number of the Insane by bringing to public view persons now concealed In almshouses or hospitals or running at large. These statistics are issued every year and they appear to support the contention that Insanity is increasing rapidly through the nervous conditions of American life or of Increasing abuse of alcoholic liquors. Persons of unstable nerves always have tended to Insanity and the tendency always has been aggravated by alcoholic poisoning. But far more complete and accurate statistics of present and past insanity are required to prove an actual Increase In the number of Insane persons per thousand. There has been great increase in the number brought within the field of statistics by provision for their confinement or care in hospitals. It is not so apparent that the total number per thousand in hospitals, almshouses and families has increased. It is necessary always to be on guard against abuse of statistics.

CHICAGO DOESN’T WEAR GLOVES

City That la Too Buy and Too Great tor “Polite” Thlnga. What is Chicago, I will try to guess and to tell, says John McGovern in the National Magazine. It Is a population in number like Canton, In China, It is impressively great, because. for Instance, it daily uses 300,000 telephones and over sixty hospitals; some of them very large ones, Indeed, for here surgery, oft the battle field, has found its busiest haunts. The dead are buried in forty-six cemeteries. Then of them are Jewish and there are Turkish and Bohemian burying grounds. The union printers are filling their third large lot. There are about 300 great school houses, many of them groups of buildings, When President Taft visited the city in 1909 he was greeted by 150,000 little children, massed on the lake front park, and about 450,000 more were playing at home. Chicago does not wear gloves, does not carry a cane; It has no time for these “polite” things. We boast that it does more, with better machinery, than any other community on earth, it has a kind heart under its working clothes, and has always counted everybody in as one more Chicagoan. Its morals raise the present average of North America, or its population would not increase bo rapidly. In appearance it is often gray and melancholy, likb old ocean; but in spirit, as in history, it Is young and ever hopeful. It is the most prolific inventor that time has produced. It still welcomes everybody who can labor and Its generous salutation thrills forty-seven kinds of lowly people with a growing desire to cast their lot there.

Reason and Instinct.

A certkin north country miner was particularly fond of a clever little dog he possessed. At times he was apt to claim a little too much for his pet, and one morning a neighbor was endeavoring to point out the difference between instinct and reason when an amusing interruption occurred. A seedy looking tramp turned the corner, and the dog, without so much as a word from his master, sprang into the road and Offered battle. 'There you are," laughed the miner as the dog snapped and snarled around the heels of the tramp. “’E don’t like the looks of the chap. That’s instinct.” Suddenly the tramp turned and kicked the dog into an adjacent field. “There you are,” ejaculated the miner’s friend grimly. "The chap don’t like the looks of the dog. An’ that’s reason.” —London Tit-Bits.

AT MONTE CARLO.

Game Is Conducted on the Square, and Croupiers Are Honeet. There Is one thing about gambling rooms at Monte Carlo that must toe said in their favor, says the correspondent of the London Mall, and that is the absolutely fair and dignified manner in which the business is conducted. Roulette is a legally authorized institution in the principality of Monaco, and there are no “hankypanky” triciks, such as are hinted at in some notorious paris “tripots.” Here in -Monte Carlo the whole thing is done'openly and aboveboard, and if you lose your fnoney you lose it fairly and without the slightest suspicion of cheating or robbery, and you have nobody but yourself to blame. 1 When it is considered, too, that the croupiers are earning an average wage of £l2 a month one can but marvel at the honesty and dexterity of these men who daily handle thousands of pounds. I am bound to Bay that the Monte Carlo croupiers—and I limit this opinion to Monte Carlo —are a thoroughly respectable and honest body of men. They seem quite without cupidity. I can only compare them to those Paris bank messengers or “garcons de recette” who are hats, and who walk about all day in dressed In blue coats and cocked charge of £20,000 or £50,000 in notes and cash —and who are paid at the rate of 5 francs a day. The croupier starts at £6 a month, and rises toy annual instalments to £ls. If he is well recommended and exceptionally smart he may become a “sous-chef de partie,” or even a “chef,” at £2O. The “iplums of the trade are the inspector ships, but few holders of these posts are selected from the ranks of the croupiers. The inspector’s salary is between £2B and £32 a month. I saw an Instance in the rooms recently of the quiet and dignified mapner in which a dispute between players is settled. Two ladies—one wellknown Parisian actress, the other a stout old German —sat near each other at a rouilette table* and when the result was declared the stout lady immediately snatched up her winnings and the other lady’s too. A hot dispute ensued, high words arose — for gamblers quickly lose their tempers—and all the croupiers failed to restore calm. The German lady, though apparently In good faith, was obviously In the wrong, as several of us onlookers had noticed for ourselves, and a “chef de partie” came along and tried to settle the matter, but failing to do so, called an inspector, who quietly invited both ladies to leave the table.

This had the desired effect. Rather than lose her seat—‘for she was winning steadily the German lady diegorged, and quiet was immediately restored. None hut those at the table were aware of any disturbance, and the whole incident had not lasted three minutes, during which play was interrupted. i witnessed the following Interesting play at a roulette table; A lady in mourning put 4 louis on 36 “en plein/’which turned up. She received 2800 francs, and immediately placed 10 louis on 18 “en plein.” The number turned pp, and she received 7000 francs, thus, with 80 francs netting 9800 francs in less than six minutes.

DEER IN LOUISIANA.

Slaughter by Hide Hunters Along the Cocodrie Bayou. Not long ago the assessor of Concordia parish wrote to the TimesDemocrat calling attention to the wanton slaughter of deer in the Tenth Ward of that parish during the present season, says Forest and Stream. According to the assessor, J. D. Miller, the Cocodrie swamp has for a number of weeks been the scene of operations for a large number ol hunters who have been killing deer for their hides.

This Cbcodrie swamp, iMr. Miller asserts, is the greatest natural deer park in the world, and he believes that more than 500 deer have been killed in that section during the present season. Residents of the ward are finding carcasses stripped of their bides and other carcasses of deer that have been wounded and afterward died all over the swamp. The people of Concordia parish are naturally outraged, at this invasion of hide hunters, who, however, declare that they are protected by the game laws, having paid the State license of sl, Yet the laws of Louisiana prohibit the slaughter of does and fawns and limit the kill of the individual hunter for the day and for the season. If the destruction has been anything like what it Is reported these provisions must have been constantly violated.

Information of this alleged destruction ought to have reached the State Came Commission long (before the close of the season. If it was not learned of, at all events they • have it ,now, and this information will undoubtedly cause the game authorities to be on the alert for similar violations next season. If such destruction is continued it can mean only the extermination of the deer along the Cocodrie Bayou, and if such slaughter takes place in one swamp or parish of Louisiana it may take place in a dozen others , where deer are plenty.

The campaign against rats at the London and India docks, Tilbury, has already resulted, ddek officials estimate, in the destruction of nearly 30,o©n rodents.

The Overland Now the Leading Car

Overland sales now run $200,000 per day. There has never been a record approaching that ha the history of automobiles. When a man sees an Overland, all the lesser cars lose their attractions. For no other car gives so much for the money. And none is so simple, so easy to care for, so proof against troubles. The Simplicity The Overlands operate by pedal control, so the hands have nothing to do but steer. One goes forward or backward, fast or slow, simply by pushing pedals. A child can master the car in ten minutes. The Overlands are free from complexities. A novice can run them and care for them. One of these cars has run 7,0c 1 miles without stopping the engine. In the Government Postal Service Overlands have run 75 miles a day for a year and a half without missing a trip. They are as faithful as watches. A man who knows nothing about machinery can run an Overland a thousand miles and back.
