It was th? reading of the Incident that doctors have r-rieed was the ca-ise of a certain Atchison woman's serious illne, rays the Atchison Globe. She gave a sniff of contempt when she read of a girl who killed tersaif "for the love of a uii," and sailed so hard that the sni;f went ia and affected her vital organs. The woman is married, hzs seven children, works like a farm hand in harvest, though her husband is in good circumstances, and hasn't had an outing in 10 year3. Doctors say that this sr:f5ns in contempt is apt to prove serious when a weman sniffs as hard as this woman sniffed. Eiie put in that sniff all the disappointment, all the contempt, all the heartache cf 13 years, and tha sniff simply shattered h;r whole system, and displaced half her interior.

I take my pen in hand to write you en answer to the mug that signs his name "victim" what says that a bolt on your bedroom door n'.ghts will make you safe from burglars coming into the. room and shooting your head off and to tell hkn the only way to be safe from harm by burglars Is to lay still when they tells you to and after they has gone to collect from the burgläry Insurance company. Your man Victim" U a dull guy if he thinks a bolt will stop anyone that know3 his trade, because we always put3 a gimlet hope through the panel right back of the bolt and slides it ack quiet and easy just the same way as we put3 holes through the panel tack of dead latches on outside doors, because there ain't nothing will stop a man that knows the trade only a steel door with an iron crossbar back of it and electric contacts all around. What'3 more i3 that any man that sleeps with a pistol under his pillow Is a chump, because that'3 where we always feels for it the first thing and get3 it before proceeding to the business of the evening, the right place to keep a pistol being in the front hall hanging on a nail where you ain't liable to do no damage to th'j bedrcom walU and furniturs with it, iesides It3 being bad for nervous people to wake up ia the night and feel for a pistol that ain't there no more. If a guy wants to take a pistol to bed with him and thinks he's got nerve enough to use it the proper place for "it is not under the pillow, because that'3 where we alwaj'3 look3 for it, but it's at the foot cf the bed, about where yoa can stretch out with jour toes so that when you wake up and feel the burglar's hand searching under your pillow you can lay still till he move3 over to the bureau, when iyou will have plenty of time to get hold of your gun with your toes and pull it up gentle and slow like you was fast asleep till you get your grip on it and then if you are quick enough to make the burglar shoot In the smoke all right, but If you ain't got the nerve for the j'b you'd better not have no gun around, because? ho will shoot next. Having been in the bolt slipping business and pillow pistol collecting line for nine years, I gues3 I know the gacne, and if I knowed where your mug "Victim" lives I would just come up some evening and pinch hi3 gun from him to show him his bolt Is no good.

'We drink nothing at meal time but Postum, and it is such a comfort to have something we can enjoy drinking with the children.' "I was astonished that she would allow the children to drink any kind of coffee, but she said Postum was the most healthful drink in the world fcr children as well as for older ones, and that the condition of both the children and adults showed that to be a fact. "My first trial was a failure. The cook boiled it four or Ave minutes and it tasted so flat that I was in despair but determined to give it one .mere trial.

- s r Vi I if: The shades of Hudson and Fulton have recently been the guests of Father Knickerbocker. The tercentenary celebration of Henry Hudson's discovery of the beautiful stream that l ears bis name will live in history. .Sharing honors with the old' navigator and explorer was the man who, two centuries after the shallow Half Moon ;;lun.bcu its way gingerly up viia: Hudson is supposed to have at lirst thought the northwest ja?cage, navialfd the same stream in a steamboat to the admiring gaze and fearsome jariicipaiion of the venturesome Llooo.s of a century ago. What must the shades of these virile progressives of one and three centuries ago think of the panoply of progression unfolded on the Hudson and the North and East rivers in this twentieth eenturj? The very pageant which opened the memorial celebration of discovery and invention was of such magnitude and variety as to causa even we mortals of the present to gasp when we pause to consider all the marvels of accomplishment it represented. Nc more fitting year could have been chosen by prearrangement and advanced preparation than the present one for such a memorial fete, writes Charles H. Leichliter in the Chicago Record-Herald. It has been a year of record smashing In almost every field of endeavor. Less practical in its effect than would have been the fulfillment of Hudson's continual quest, a navigable north passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific, the accomplishment sought by adventurers for 400 years has been achieved. The north pole has been discovered. Men and women possessed of the same explorative restlessness as resulted In -the name of Hudson dotting the geography of the western hemisphere have been busy scaling the highest mountain peaks. Another Eng lishman for Hudson was a son of Great Britain despite the fact that his most notable achievements were made with the assistance of the Dutch has traversed the difficult wastes of the antarctic to within 111 miles of the south pole. Records for globe "cir cling have been broken. But while Peary.with his Roosevelt, a pigmy boat compared with the present ocean liners, but Infinitely larger than the Half Moon, divides honors with his successful fellow explorer. Dr. Cook, it was not so much the accomplishments of these intrepid men and their kindred spirits that astounded the shades of Hudson and Fulton as the marvels of Invention they witnessed. An Age of Superlatives. This is the age of electricity; of aviation; of annihilation of distance beyond the dreams of the veriest visionary. Before these virile spirit?, on the mighty Hudson; about and beneath them on land and sea; above them in the air were the foremost examples of what their succes?ors have been doing In the world they left so long ago. Nimble as these etherial inspectors. Curtiss and Wright navigate the air. These disembodied spirits must, from sheer surprise and force of human habit, have stepped agilely from the terrific approach of racing self-propelled vehicles: the brilliant light of electricity and Its demon power must have astonished even the soul of the enterprising, far-seeing Fulton. And on the Iron rails he could note the climax of the practical use of the steam he harnessed to his bidding on the same spot a century ago. For his part, the shade of Hudson must have gazed with wonder lighted eye3 at the leviathans that plow the sea he loved. Ocean greyhounds that cross the Atlantic now in less days than it too him months on his first crossing reared their hulks high above the blue waters; their Iron bellies buried in the depths a distance greater than the height of many stupendous buildings. Torpedo boats and submarines astonished the explorer's shade more than that of Fulton, for the inventor had experimented with these before his death, almost a century ago. Advance in Battleships. But to Hudson the long lines of the the maneuvering battleships of many ATCHISON QLOBE SIGHTS. .Vearly every mother teaches her baby boy to tay he Is "a bad boy." Say a girl Is pretty and every one around screams: "She knows it." Xothing is quite so forlorn looking as a picnic when the weather is bad. Wherever a man goes lie will make tracks, and other people will see them. Some people do not believe it is possible to steal from a railroad company. Some way a jealous man appears to better advantage than a jealous woman. Many people get credit for being reserved, because they can't talk intelligently. How we old people enjoy looking at pictures of ourself taken when we were young! What has become of the old fashioned man who said baldness was due to early piety? We are always meeting people who reajll incidents that we had hoped thrj a'1 forgott-m.

fVsi 4 nations must have been a source of professional admiration, surprise and regret that he could not be reincarnated in this ae of so great possibilities to th nevigator. How he would have liked to tread their decks and Immaculate bridges! What consternation would not he have poured into the Indians of Spuyten Duyvil or the mutineers of Hudson's Bay from their many embattled turrets. Visiting the commanders of the various vessels, from the trim steam yachts or motor boats to the massive stepped battleships or the hugs hulks of the Mauretania or the Lusitania the shades met surprises at every hand. Very frequently they were startled by a "cra-a-sh" snapping in tba atmosphere about them, as invisible as their cwn disembodied spirits. Bravo though he was, Hudson must have seized nervously the arm of his more modern companion and demanded: "What's that?" And Fulton, inventor and mechanic, no doubt confessed ignorance and turned to the bade of old Diedrb h Knickerbocker, their guide, for enlightenment. Let us go with them on their first twenty-four hours' inspection. Father Knickerbocker, being credited with maintaining a close watch upon the habits and progress of the inhabitants of his beloved Isle of Manhattan, was able to set their fears at rest, albeit he aggrtvated their wonder by explaining that the uncanny noise was made by wireless iei-grap!i instruments. "But what Is the telegraph?" loth asked. "I had forgotteri that you left before the invention of sending messages by means of a wire over thousands of miles of space. At first wires were necessary, and they still are generally used over land. But over water a sj-stem of sending and receiving messages across hundreds of miles of space with no visible connection Is coming into very common use. Already It has saved the lives of many hundreds of shipwrecked people. By Its use busy business men on ocean travels are able to keep in momentary communication with any part of the world they wish," explained the prototyie of N'ew York town. "I remember something about Franklin with a kite and a key. He drew sparks from a string. That was a little while before I caught cold crossing from Xew Jersey and became a shade," said Fulton. "Is this new telegraphy anything like that?" "Something similar, as it is accomplished by means of captive electricity." replied Father Knickerbocker "Telephony Is another Invention whereby sounds are reproduced accurately over thousands of miles of wire, Traveling men will finally become so numerous that their trade will make business good. Any woman low enough to bring a breach of promise suit, should be unlucky enough to lose it. We imagine that the day before election an ofnee seeker feels like a girl about to be married. Always find out how much a thing is going to cost before you order it. You can save money by this precaution. Farmers quarrel as much over the best country road as they quarrel over the best road to heavsn. If a woman had ier way, she would watch what her husband sees and hears as carefully as what the baby eats. "Where's Doc?" a man asked today. "I hain't saw him for a week." Lots of good men talk that sort of grammar. What has become of the old-fashioned man who followed statements in his letters with "Isaiah lxii:G-7"; Mat. xxiv:31," etc ,

KHSTrij P-ÜÜ -ft conversations between Xew York and Chicago and even greater distances being commonplace occurrences now." "Chicago?" both inquired. "Chicago," broke in another shade who bore resemblance to father Dearborn, "Is the greatest joung city in the world. It Is rapidly overhauling New York in population and is the center and source of most energy and progress." Father Knickerbocker elevated his shade ejelids slightly, but refrained from comment. "I had heard of electricity," ruminated the shade of Fulton. "There was something about it in Leyden while I was in England. But I did not dream It possessed such possibilities. It may have been a better deiner t with which to experiment than steam. Still, nothing can supplant fteam I assume that all these people I seo here to-day have come by steamships or maybe some have come by steam vehicle: over the highways." The shade of Father Dearborn emitted something strangely like a snort. "Yes, most of these people came by steam-propelled vehicles, but they now run on steel rails that girdle the world. They travel usually at a rate approximating nearly a mile a minute, and only this 3ear a steam locomotive beat the record by running ninetynine miles an hour. Every eighteen hours steam engines pullin,- long trains of steel-built cars and e; rrying hundreds of people go between Chi cago and Xew York, and fourten-hour trips over the same 1,000-mile journey are not unusual." "Ye gods!" was all the shade of Fulton could exclaim. "But that is not all." broke in Father Knickerbocker. "This vessel on which we now are, the Mauretania. crossed the Atlantic only a few weeks ago in just a little more than four day.. How's that?" he chuckled, as he chucked the spirit ribs of Henry Hudson. That shade, who had been listening somewhat listlessly to the conversation, became interested, "I was watching when our friend RqVrt, here, steamed up my river In the Clermont. It was a much larger boat, too. than my Half Moon, and made better time. But you could stow them both in this monster and have to look a long time to find them if they got misplaced." "Yes," observed Father Knickerbocker, "you could almost put either of them in one of those smokestacks. A coach and four could easily be driven through one of these funnels." El ctricity's Aid Used. They were leaning over the rail, and both the ancient shades became Interested In a smaller vessel that was driving alongside without apparent means of propulsion. Only a faint "chug! chug!" came to their ears. "That," said Father Knickerbocker, observing their attention, "is another use to which electricity has been put. With all your study of torpedoes and submarines you never thought of such a thing as an electric launch, did you, Robert?" PROGRESS OF THE DAY. The electric fan plucks slaughtered chickens. India and Ceylon supply seveneighths of the world's tea. Seven persons out of ten have eyes of differing strength. The Chinese divide the day into 12 parts of two hours each. The French government will control the wireless telegraph systems of that country. Consumption seems to be most prevalent among persons between 23 and SO years of age. British colonies supplied the mother country with $100,000,000 worth of wool last year. Bees sometimes fly two miles from the hive and find their way back without difficulty. Ambulance launches will comprise one of the innovations of the HudsonFulton celebration. Plans are being made for the electrification of the mora Important State railways of Sweden.

V 51.r"-r,Tr.7T m mm f "Electricity Is used, too, on railroads. This year an electric motor made a record of ninety-two mile3 an hour. Electric wires from the bridge of this ship to the engine room convey the orders for its movements. Electric bells in the cabins summon servants, as they do in the thirtiethstory room of the hotel in which you would sleep to-night If a shade needed to sieep. But let us pass along. We have only a few days to witness the wonders that have been produced by men since you last visited the scene of your greatest achievements." Swinging lightly over the side. of the great vessel the party, including Father Dearborn, floated to the deck of a passing launch. "Phew!" exclaimed the shade of Hudson as it applied a Styx-embroidered handkerchief to Its nostrils. "What is that unseemly smell?" "That Is the gasoline," vouchsafed Father Dearborn. "They're very familiar with it on the principal thoroughfares of my big western city." "And what Is gasoline?" queried the shade of Fulton. "Father Knick" Up to Date. "You should keep better posted on the progress of the world, my dear Robert," observed Father Knickerbocker. "See how I have kept myself informed of what is going on in Xew Amsterdam, which the British renamed Xew York. Petroleum was discovered in jour native state of Pennsylvania some years after you cast aside your mundane existence and affected the filmy habllaments of the spirit world. Gasoline is one of the results, and right prominent It has become as a fuel. It is largely used for the propulsion of automobiles and boats, and ha3 become a means of economy and large possibilities in shops and other places where steam Is inexpedient and costly." On the battleship Connecticut, where the visitors from the Styx next took up their observations, both Hudson and Fulton found much to interest them. The huge guns of enormous tonnage, handled rapidly and smoothly by the aid of mechanical devices all new to the ancient mariners, filled them with wonder. "The powder burned in the firing of one salute would have outfitted the Half Moon for its entire voyage of discovery."' observed Hudson. See Two Familiar Craft. About them the harbor and the rivers were dotted with craft of every description. Finally they spied two that were familiar the replicas of the Half Moon and the first Clermont, reproduced as a mere Incident of the tercentennial celebration. The originals hid represented the climax of reckless 'expenditure three and one centuries back. At the conclusion of the parade Father Knickerbocker led his guests back to the city's heart. Hudson's bewilderment was far greater than that of Fulton. "When I was here this was all hills and trees and rocks," exclaimed the old explorer, as he gazed upward to where Madison Mary was tolling the hour, thirty stories above them, with several more stories of tower stretching above her sonorous mouth. "When I was here," observed Fulton, "a four-story building was thought a very tower of Babel. But there are some familiar scenes." Just then there came a furious "Honk! Honk!" and Father Knickerbocker nnd Father Dearborn stepped aside just In time to see a huge racing Uniforms were lirst adopted by the English military organizations In the seventeenth century. Ancient buildings or works cannot be restored in Italy without the consent of the government. Twenty-five-cent dinners are served in the House of Commons for such members as desire them.

"That," explained Father Knickerbocker, solicitously fanning the habiliments of his charges with his spirit hand, "was the automobile that recently did ten miles in 8:231-3. Lucky it wasn't the one that made 100 miles in 1:38:43 4-10. You would have been wafted back to the Styx." "But what has become of the horses?" both Inquired. "There's some out in Central Park j'et," replied Father Knickerbocker. "There are still plenty to be seen on tho streets of Chicago," observed Father Dearborn, wryly. Year of Broken Records. "But even in this respect it .has become a very rapid world," continued Father Knickerbocker, ignoring the interruption. "This year a horse, Hamburg Belle, trotted a one-mile heat in 2:01U" "Good for the horse," exclaimed Fulton. "Even your record of getting away from the Indians up Albany way has been eclipsed this year," eaid Father Knickerbocker, looking through Hudson. "Early this month Emelio Lunghi clipped three and three-fifths seconds from the 700-yard running record that had stood for twenty-seven years, making It in 1:27 2-5; John J. Eller -won a 120-yard low hurdle race in 0:14 2-3, a fifth of a second faster than the best previous record, made in 188S; Piatt Adams leaped In a standing hop, skip and jump the unprecedented dLstance of 32 feet 4V Inches, breaking the world's record by several inches." "Blessed if it isn't a rapid century ejaculated tho visiting ßhades. They were standing beside a huge stone and iron structure. Suddenly there canio a buzz of noise, and under their feet the earth -trembled. "U it an earthquake?" tremulously asked Hudson. Wonders of Printing. "No, old friend," Father Knicker bocker assured him. "That is only newspaper presses printing miles of colored prints telling about this day's doings in honor of both of you. They're coming out folded and ready for the street at the rate of thousands a minute. While we are standing here boys are already selling them on the streets. Within an hour a million people will be looking at your ancient pictures and reading of your achievements; comparing them smilingly with those of this very modern world." Hudson and Fulton were silent. Then Fulton "spoke up. "They were printed by hand in my time," lie said. "Three or four hundred an hour was a remarkable record, even for the press of Ben Franklin." "There was mighty little printing in my day," observed Hudson, "even in Holland or Germany." "Electricity again makes it possible to-day. The presses, larger than many houses, are operated by electric motors; electricity flashes -the news from all corners of the world, so that within a few minutes of the occurrence of an important event, In any part of the globe the rest of the world may know about It, and be shown printed pictures of either the people concerned or photographic representations of the disaster, or battle, or notable achievement." They caught the flaring headlines of a pictured page in the hands of a flying newsboy. "That looks like me," SPLINTERS. Band boxes Music stands. Hard rubber Watching a balloon. While we are sighing over the past we miss the opportunities of the present. It is human nature for us to think that the laurel wreath is cn the wrong head. Our good deeds are played on a jewsharp and our faults on a bass drum.

A m mmmm w ÖS? it exclaimed Hudson. "That's my like ness." sail Fulton. "There was noth ing like that In cur time,' dueted. they And Then Flying Machines. Even as they stood agape a shadow obscured the light flickering through the top of the canyon of skyscrapers, and, looking up, they saw in majestic flight a huge bird-like shape. They easily could disceren in It3 center the figure of a man, and faintly came to their ears ,the chug of a panting engine. "That is the latest and most marvelous achievement of any in the twentieth century," Father Knickerbocker stated calmlj'. "That is either the Curtiss or Wright aeroplane flying from Governor's LJand over Manhattan and the Bronx. These bird machines have taken on the spirit of the age, and man already ha3 flown at the rate of forty-nine miles an hour. He has been able thus far to remain in the air In a heavier than air machine more than three hours, and dirigible balloons, lighter than air, commonly travel from 150 to 430 mile3. The possibilities of either lorm of flying machine have not as yet begun to be developed." The shades of Hudson and Fulton fell over In amazement and were run over by a motorcycle. "What hit us, then?" they asked impatiently. 1 How the bicycle had been succeeded by the motor driven two-wheeled vehicle was explained to them, and they were told of another recent worldsmashing record In which a motor cycle carrying two men went a mile in 42 3-3 seconds this year. "I guess I'll go back home," observed Hudson. "This'Lä too swift a place for me." "Let's wait a little longer," said Fulton. "I always was interested In Inventions." Under Ocean in Submarins. They were taken to the bottom of the ocean in a submarine and shown how a man may be shot from a sunk en vessel at a great depth, to tL? sur face of the water; how vessels miy be rammed below the water line; how torpedoes may be projected against them; how battles may be fought beneath the water or above the land and sea. "It looks to me," observed Hudson with decision, "that, with these big guns and ship3, the uncertainty of submerged fighting and battles In the air, this Is no place for a fighting man or a warring nation." "Right you are," agreed his three companions. At night they were treated te more surprises. Serpentine figures In va rious colors leaped out of the darkness of the overhead night. "Electricity again," Father Knick erbocker told them. They expressed surprlp? that so many candles and gas liglus should be available In their honor. Again they were assured that little of the ilium' inatlon was gas, and none of it can,'dles, but again electricity. Fulton recalled gas lights In London, but these were dim compared wtih the brilliance of the electric Incandescenta and arcs. The prism colors cf the lights he was assured were produced by the perfection of glass manufacture. Everywhere the returned voyagers were greeted with the possibili ties and modern uses of one manufactured product with which they thought they had ' been familiar in their own times. Electric Elevators. Mirrored electric elevators shot them skyward with more rapidity than their etherealized bodies were accustomed to travel. "Perhaps we'd better stay and see it out," said Hudson dubiously. "As long as steam still is supreme as a motive power I think I can afford to remain," declared Fulton. "After all, if it hadn't been for m and the Half Moon and my surly crew thi3 wonder country and its wonderful achievements might not yet be "the vision of the world," said Hudson. And Father Knickerbocker and 1 Father Dearborn chuckled wtih pride, In trying to break through a crowd one can often go faster by moving slower. Even after looking at our little weekly salary we cannot help thinking of our greatness. Biggs That noise sounds like a cy clone; is there a storm coming jp?

An army ofücer who has seen service in the Philippines Is accustomed to tell his friends that the most likeabli thing he found In the islands was thi tobacco. Another army officer, at home a persistent smoker, broke ofl the habit after he had been a short time stationed at Manila, because he could not use the tobacco. Probably the same diversified results will follow local tests of the 20,000 cigars that have reached Boston as an installment of the 150.000.C00 which, under a pro vision of the new tariff act, are admitted to the country free of duty, the Boston Transcript says. In appearance they are not at all suggestive of the old-fashioned Manila "cheroots" but copy standard shapes and sizes and show much better workmanship than did the pioneer cigars from Porto Rico.
