There are indications that George V wui mane wnai may De termed a bust ness king. He has gone about the first duties that he has to face in a method ical, attentive and energetic fashion, He has deferred the funeral of the late king until the 20th in order that all the arrangements for it may be carefully carried out He has taken per sonal charge of the major features, especially those connected with the sympathetic visits of foreign rulers or their representatives, and evidently means that nothing which can be foreteen shall interfere with the friendly ipirit of the solemn occasion. And. (specially, he has shown himself intelligently interested in the daily conterns of. the English people by his direction that the places of amusement lhall be closed on the day of the f uleral only, thus Justifying the comInulty generally in refraining from a long period of depression which, might lave ensued. His first formal public iterance reveals a lige practical mode : if thought in regard to matters of greater import. , His address to the

A $100,000 Hour. A whole hour of Hugh Chalmers. Do you know how much that is worth to Richmond? That hour is worth $100,000.

Chalmers is a business engineer. He Is the greatest exponent of scientific business in America. Corporation after corporation has tried to capture Hugh Chalmers to do its thinking to organize its business. When Chalmers was thirty years old he turned down an offer of $75.000 a year from the automobile trust because he could make more money. Chalmers is the Edison of Business Methods. Is it any wonder that the hour that Chalmers spends in Richmond Is worth $100,000. It you doubt it, you do not know what Chalmers has done for other cities. Town after town has been regenerated after a visit from Chalmers. The Young Men's Business Club is inviting the business men. of Richmond to hear Chalmers because it means the growth of Business in Richmond. Just as farming is being developed along intensive and scientific lines

doubling the yield so Chalmers and the same principles into modern affairs.

The coming of Chalmers is the event of 1910. He can do for Richmond what he has done for other towns.

The Modern Puritan.

Governor Marshall has been conspicuous for a year or more because of his speeches on the subject of the Modern Puritan. The Modern Puritan as set forth by Marshall is the Theodore Roosevelt, Governor Folk, Francis Hepey. Beveridge type who does the thing that is hardest, the unpolitic, the honest straight from the shoulder thing without regard to whom It hurts with his eyes on the right. We all know that Governor Hughes forced the Republican party of New York to clear out the ugly work the charges of bribery Allds you remember.

And at that very time Kern was making his charges against eight definitely and specifically eight of the members of the Indiana legislature. These were servants of the state they still are. They are not members of the Democratic party first, and the servants of the state afterward in the legal and the moral sense. " Governor Marshall is governor first? He is the exemplar of the Modern Puritan? Listen: "Governor Thomas R, Marshall in the pulpit of the First Presbyterian church last night denounced graft, bribery and high finance as a resultant evils of evolution and violations of the Ten Commandments. No (reference was made to either the Illinois or Indiana bribery charges. Indianapolis Star. Marshall does not measure up to his spoken ideals.

navy, with which his long term of service has made him intimately acquainted, marks not only his cordial feeling toward his former comrades but his appreciation of the dominant Interest the nation has in that branch of the service. The Birds. From the Rochester Herald. The bill advocated by the Audubon socities of the state of New York, forbidding the sale within this state of the plumage of any wild bird which is protected within New York, has passed the legislature and is awaiting the governor's signature. We trust it will receive his approval. For many years the Audubon societies have labored unceasingly to educate the people of this state to the economic as well as the sentimental,, value of wild bird life. Their progress has been very slow. The rural communities of the state, even the fruit-raising sections of western New York, have been afflicted with almost incredible ignorance of the usefulness of birds. Farmers' boys often rob . birds' nests of their eggs, and amuse themselves by aiming their newly acquired firearms at birds of every kind. It is seldom that a word of censure is heard from the male parent, whole property ths young mischief-maker is hastening to destroy. Eskimos and the Pole. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. The Washington Star believes that the north pole may have been first discovered by Eskimos too uneducated to write for the magazines. Impossible. But Eskimos may have discovered the north pole when the magazines were not sufflcently informed to hire the discovers to allow their names to head magazines articles. TWINKLES BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

Genius Handicapped. "So you think our friend will never be recognized as a great musician?" "I'm sure of it. He is partially bald speaks no language except English and has a name that anybody can pro nounce." Self-Consciousness. "Is this silk hat. the latent rIvIp?" asked the man who had been appoint ed on a reception committee. "The very latest," replied the oblig ing salesman. "Then I don't want it. What I'm after is something new enough not to be shabby and old enough to look as if I were used to wearing it." The Alarm Clock. Quoth he: "I'll view the comet; It is a pleasant sight." He brought the old alarm clock And tried to set it right. But through the night 'twas silent He'd got it out of fix. It didn't make a sound until Next day at half-past six. He took it to an expert To have the thing repaired; It went off in the street car The passengers were scared. Once more he set the signal For the early hour so small. He missed his train next morning, For it never rang at all. Now in a cell he murmurs With many a plaintive sigh: "You wind It with a corkscrew And you jab it in the eye. You pull a little lever, Drop a nickel in the slot; It may wake you up tomorrow, But it probably will not!" Napoleon's Gift. A former viceroy of India wa once a guest at an official banquet in London and found himself placed next to a portly London alderman. "My grandfather knew Napoleon." said the latter ,to the distinguished guest. "The emperor gave bim a lovely snuffbox. There Is a hen on the lid." "Dear me:" replied the viceroy. "It Is probably an eagle, not a hen." "No, it is a hen." persisted the alder man, producing the box from his pock et and proudly displaying the initial "V of the emperor's name in brilliants on the IiL A Valuable Signature. Whistler's professional aa well as legal signature was a butterfly. It appeared on his paintings and was the only signature recognized at his bank. Autograph fiends schemed in vain and would have paid handsomely for Whistler's autograph In script One day the painter was visited in his studio by a dealer who appeared to be very angry. He had received Whistler's check for 1 5s. and wrath fully demanded a proper signature that would draw the money at the bank. . Whistler, genuinely enraged at the thought that there could be any one so Ignorant as not to know about the famous butterfly, wrote his name on the check, knowing that the bank would refuse It and picturing to himself with Joy the dealer's punishment In forfeiting the 1 5s. owing to him. The next day the painter was so furious be nearly had a fit on learning that within an boar the dealer bad old the rare signature- for 82.

A CIVIL WORD. ' A French king once said, "If a civil word or two will make a man happy he must be a churl indeed who would not give them to him. If this feeling were acted on, how much happier the world would be! We may say of this kindly temper that it is like lighting another man's candle by one's own, which loses none of its light by what the other gains.

SPUR USED UPON OF Council Thinks Street Im provement Work Should Not Be Dropped. MACADAM FOR SOUTH A ST. IT IS STATED THAT RESIDENTS HAD MADE THEIR IMPROVE MENTS AND IT WAS NOW UP TO THIS CITY. Declaring that the residents of South A street are very much incensed because the city is taking no action in regard to improving that street, when they have gone to considerable ex pense by placing cement sidewalks curbs and gutters along that thorough' fare, Councilman Willim H. Bartel presented a petition for the improve ment of South A street, at the meeting of the city council last evening with the request that it be given special consideration. Bartel stated that he saw no reason why the improvement of that street should be delayed. He declared that the property owners paid for the ce ment sidewalk, curb and gutters with the understanding that the street was to be macadamized by the city, but as yet no step had been taken by the present administration jn this direction. Councilman Bartel said that the city now had $10,000 on hand with about $10,000 in bills payable in taxes to come in by July 1, and implied that the financial condition of the city treasury did not appear to be so badly "bent" as was the general supposition. As an illustration Bartel asserted that at this date last yeah the city had but $8,849.91 in the treasury. Despite this small amount, he alleged, the other administration went ahead with the Improvements. Councilman Matt Von Pein then spoke along the same lines. He declared that the "do nothing" policy of the present administration was being generally criticized and that while it was not his intention to join in on the criticism, as he belived that this administration knew its own business, at the same time he said it was the business of the councilmen to take this matter ud. Mr. Von Pein stated that it had always been the policy for the city to macadamize street on which sidewalks, curb and gutters had been placed by the residents. He contended that it was a question as to whether it was more economical to put this matter of improvement off until next year when the work would be doubled. "The streets are the making of a city," continued Mr. Von Pein, "and are a good investment, because they are permanent." Mayor immerman made no comment on the matter. He referred Mr. Bartel's petition to the board of public works and ordered council to proceed with the business. Does Wonders Caring Rheumatism "D-M-F" Cures Many 25-Year Cases in Few Weeks.

THE SCRAP BOOK

An Innocent at Largs. A Philadelphia young man whose pocketbook Is of a bulging size visited the exposition in Seattle in 1900. lie bad a good education and was out at Seattle alone, away from the eyes of his loving mother. Concluding that he cpuld not go home without buying her a present, he went to a store, selected the gift and asked the price. "Four bits," was the answer of the storekeeper. "Wrap it for me, and I'll call for It later," said the gentleman. Going out of the store, he walked to an old Junk sop where for a small sum he purchased four horse's bits and had them wrapped up. Returning to the store, he deposited the package upon the counter and picked up the souvenirs with the remark. "I have read about the south sea islanders using shells and the Indians using wampum, but this is the first time I ever knew that the west erners used bits for money." Cleve land Leader.

Mixed metaphors, absenmindedness and inattention have caused many laughable incidents. Teachers in the elementary grades, of the public schools especially hear many of these amusing "breaks." One day a bright youth In one of the higher grades of a Kensington school during an elocution period furnished an addition to the long list. He mixed up two poets with a result that provoked much laughter in the school. He quoted, or, rather, misquoted, as follows: v Oh, woman, in our hours of ease, Uncertain, coy and hard to please; But, seeing too oft, become familiar with her face. We first endure, then pity, then embrace. Philadelphia Times. A Nsw Case sf English Humor. Two southerners were entertaining an Englishman when one of them told the following story: "There was a poor white in our coun ty named Yarrow, whom every oue thought dishonest, but who had never been caught stealing. At last he got too bold, and through the testimony of a Mr. Brown he was sent to jail. Soon after Yarrow served his sentence Mr. Brown was obliged to go to Baltimore and have his eyes operated upon. A much exaggerated account of the op eration reached the county and was told to Yarrow.

Is the Title of a Booklet Describing a Finger Ring in which Mrs. Admiral Dewey, a Number of Prominent Practising Physicians and other Notables are Interested. RHEUMATISM CURED OR MONEY REFUNDED. What this Ring Has Done for Others It Will Do for You. In this booklet is described a ring that has won the name of "Magic King," simply because the effects it pioduccs seem so marvelous as to border on the realms of magic. . Otherwise it lays no claim to magic powers. On the contrary it is nude in accordance with demonstrated scientific rules, and the results that seem so mag" ical are the direct and natural outcome of the laws of science on which its construction is based. . The seemingly . magic power of this ' ring is at once brought to bear upon any excess of uric acid in the blood, ridding the system of this excess and thus effecting speedy and permanent cure of any of the diseases caused by uric acid, most prominennt of which is rheumatism. The '"Magic Ring" has cured nine out of every ten victims o'f rheumatism who have tried it If it did not do this it would not pay us to publish this advertisement day after day in this newspaper. If, after a fair trial of the "Magic Ring" your doctor certifies that you have not been beneffted by it we will cheerfully refund the money you have paid us for it. We would not be allowed to publish the following testimonials unless they were true: Mrs. George H. Dewey, wife of the herotof Manila Bay, writes from her home. No. 1747 Rhode Island Avenue, Washington, D. C : "Please send me a ring of the size enclosed, by Adams Express, at your earliest convenience. -Very truly, M. Dewey." From North Grafton, Mass., comes this message: "My Dear Sir: "We are all out of the little emery slips.' "Are you willing to send a further supply? "The young man is again on his feet and free from sain. . Sincerely. Rev. C. E. O. Nichols. This is another order: "Office of Edw. Hi Webb, D.D.S. 741 Grand Street, Jersey City, N. J. Dear Sir: Kindly forward me one of your magic rings which has been recommended to me by Dr. Webb. Enclosed ym will find amount required, also size of ring. Mrs. Blair, 741 Grand Street, Jersey City, N. J." . A prominent practising physician, who las tested the Magic Rings, writes as 'ollows: 'Office of Lam son Allen, M.D. 20 Elm Street, Worcester, Mass. Sept. 25, 1909. Dear Sir: Please send me two rings of size of inclosed patterns, ' and herewith find -heck for same. Yours truly, Lamson Allen." In ordering a ring to be sent to the Mother Superior, St de Chanta! Academy, Elfin Dale, Springfield, Mo, Sister Frances writes: "I heard of the ring from a Jesuit priest, but I hesitated to give his name without his consent I am going to another religous community and if I find any sufferers will mention the ring. I am gJad to know it has benefited so many." r . There are many other testimonials to the value of the magic ring, coming from men in all walks of life, physicians, lawyers, business men. The ring is composed of an amalgam of metals. As soon as it comes in contact with the heat and moisture of the skin it generates a current of galvanic electricity which reduces the uric acid from a crystal to a liquid form and draws it out on the skin under the ring, causing the finger to look as though painted with iodine. ; When there is no more uric acid in the blood there will be no acid mark on the finger until more is generated. By continuing to wear the ring when you are cared it will absorb the acid as fast as it is generated, thus preventing a return of the disease. The ring should be rubbed on the inside until it is bright, once or twice a day, with emery cloth and the acid stains washed from the finger. It should be worn on .the left hand and should fit close. - ' In ordering the Magic Ring, send exact size, enclose $5-00 in registered letter, or post-office money order for t'ut sum, and address: M.
