KERN

Not more than two years ago It happened that a vast number ot people without regard to political belief wished to see John Kern gain the senatorshlp. He had just completed a campaign In all parts of the country and had appeared to good advantage. He seemed to have shaken off the mere political business of a corporation attorney and private agent of the redoubtable Plutonian Mr. Taggart In truth In all Indiana there appeared no Democrat of the same moral fibre and the bigness which cbaracterixes leaders of political movements.' To Indiana men there seemed a new Kern, comparable with the Wood row Wilson, Grover Cleveland, Judge Gray type of Democrat. It was felt that In contrast to the Standpat Sunny Jim Sherman, the rice presidential candidate of the Democratic party was not an Insult to the office which he might be called upon to fill. With a country hungering for honest men of proved ability; with a nation alck of office seekera and big business representatives here was a task which might have inspired a man with fewer talents. Abd when the news came from Indianapolis that Kern had lost in spite of the pledges of his partisans many republicans were Eincerely sorry that Kern (who had done service for democracy every time there was a beating to be had) was shoved aside for corporate gted. Today Kern is discredited. He has failed to measure up. What would Governor Folk of Missouri, Judge Gray of Delaware, Grover Cleveland, Woodrow Wilson or any of the men in the leadership of Democracy have done in this bribery case? The Governor of Oklahoma of unsavory reputation wculd have refused to open his lips if he saw a chance for personal political preferment but the man who made the country stand up with one accord and cheer him in his fight in Missouri Folk ? What man in Indiana can but f el that Kern either maligned an innocent-man for personal reasons or kept bis mouth closed for personal 'advantage? And with a whole people crying out for men who have moral strength and who will leave personal advantage and fight for the common good in the crisis Kern has betrayed himself but made a whole state glad to have found him out in time.

way to hinder him from dunning, after a departing train and. boarding it if he can. Voting Not All. From the Providence Bulletin. A suffragette argues, that inasmuch as it takes only a few moments once In a while to go to the polls and vote there should be no fear that the ballot for women will seriously Interfere with domestic occupations. But, manifestly, this Is not all of It. The real stress of participation in public affaire is entirely overlooked, as Illustrated in the circumstance that many men are compelled to be away from home many nights, often until a late hour, in order that they may attend political meetings and symposia on the state of the Union. The Kaiser. From the Brooklyn Citizen. After reading the verse telegraphed by the kaiser to the twenty Bchool girls who visited and drank chocolate with him at Loft us, near Odde. verse which approaches poetry in English quite as nearly as it does in German, one Is reminded of a conundrum put in German but which sounds just as well in English, to-wit: "What is the difference between God and the kaiser?" the answer being "God knows everything, but the kaiser knows everything better." Loeb an Outlander. From the Buffalo Commercial. Many republicans are of the opinion that while William Loeb, Jr.. might make a good governor, he would surely make a poor candidate. He is virtually an "outlander" that is, his work has been1 done and reputation made outside of the state. He has yet to make a place and win a following for himself in New York. Something More Needed. Scranton Tribune-Republican. We are again reminded that talk will 'not raise the Maine from Havana harbor. TWINKLES BY PHILANDER JOHN80N An Industry Threatened. "What you want to do is to have that mud hole in the road fixed," said the visitor. "That goes to show," replied Farmer Corntossel. "how little you reformers understand local conditions. I've purty nigh paid off a mortgage with the money I made haulin' automobiles out o' that mud hole." The Reckless Voyager. The tourist ever is inclined To eat things without question; He steadily improves his mind, But ruins his digestion. Discipline. "So you are living at a hotel?" "Yes," replied Mrs. Crosslots.

Those who have on hand a jar of poslam, the new akin remedy, should try it for some of the little skin ailments common to all households, particularly in the summer time. Surprising results will be seen after a single application when poslam is used for sunburn, fever blisters, mosquito bites, burns, rashes, pimples, hives, red noses and irritated and inflamed skin. The complexion is cleared overnight; dandruff is dissolved; itching or chafing feet are speedily relieved. These uses are suggested apart from the primary . purposes of poslam. the treatment of eczema, acne, skin scale, all forms of itch and other serious and virulent skin troubles. There is no skin disorder for which poslam should not be unhesitatingly used and which it will not benefit. Whenever Itching la present. It is stopped at once. According to the uses for which it Is employed; poslam may be purchased In 50-cent boxes or $2 jars at all drug stores, particularly W. H. SudhofTa.

The Absent One. , "That's a two-faced woman!" said Mrs. Tarterton. "Well," replied Mrs. Barbwlre, "if she has more than one face she certainly selects the poorest for ordinary wear." "I wonder why so many people insist on keeping dogs that are no good." "Well," replied the proprietor of the village hotel: "I always keep a few dogs because it's a comfort to see 'em take their meals regular without kickin,' even If they don't pay any board." Modern Methods. No more the office-seeker goes To dusty council rooms, to stand While others tell their joys and woes He Journeys forth into the land, Where leafy forests still endure And breezes toss the blossoms frail.

Which in his generous heart find room. He holds a serious interview, Which lasts for but a little while. And says no word when it is through. And nothing does except to smile.

Articles Will Be Printed in the Order Received. IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE. The agitation over the "noisy auto mobile horns and motorcycle whistles reminds one of the -fussy man, who when at the age of 40 was unable to afford a conveyance, but was contin ually grumbling over the ' bicyclists vehicles and autos that compelled him to move out of the way when he was crossing the streets. A few years afterwards this same young man pur chased a bicycle. Then he was al ways complaining because the neople in the streets did not hurry to the side and give him more room Likewise he complained because th. vehicles compelled him to turn out of the road for them. Bicvclina- becom ing tiresome, he purchased a horse and rig, but again he annoyed because first the bicyclists were always in the road; the autos gave him no rest cith er in town or in the country, and the motorcycles bothered his horse, etc So, Mr. Grumble decided to invest in an auto. After he had driven over all the streets, being compelled to keep the machine down to the town's speed limit and having to blow the horn at every crossing, alley, and fence corner lest he should strike some one who happened to be crossing the street, tooking neither to the right or left, and not conscious of the "city life," but sauntering along in the middle of the road as if he had two weeks in which to get across to the other side, Mr. Grumble decided to take a spin through the country. There he was hampered again by the 'bicycles, carriages, and principally farmers who wouldn't get to one side and let his auto by, being unmindful of the days when he walked, rode a bicycle and drove a horse and he too, was then dissatisfied because he had to get down m a ditch or gully to let a pedestrian, hay wagons, threshing machines, vehicles and autos pass. The same thing exists now with the public. Those who walk or drive a horse seem not to realize how difficult it is for an auto to obtain the right of way. Far better is it to have a loud and noisy horn on a motorcycle or automobile than a weak and ' ineffective one. Nothing is thought of the shrill whistles of a train, or interurban car, and little attention is paid to them, and as we have gotten nsed to the loud train . whistles, they are not put under-surveillance as are now the auto horns. Simply because one auto has a low and unsophisticated horn does it needs follow that all should have the same? Because one man has his house painted red does ot mean everyone else should do likewise? If we ever

expect to have a "city" we must acclimate ourselves to the city life. It autos had weak and low horns then the cry would be raised, "Why don't you have a horn loud enough to be heard." And it really develops that it makes a great difference whether you are walking or riding, and as a rule, you will find that those who don't drive autos are the ones raising the greatest cry, and if more of us were owners of machines we could the more readily understand the difficulty autoists have in endeavoring to obtain the right of way. But, nevertheless, some day these same pedestrians who are crying against the loud horns will either possess motorcycles or automobiles and they will set in the band wagon and contend that others on the highways have no right to exist and the horns and whistles aren't nearly loud enough to gain the attention of the slow moving public who have to walk It must be remembered there arc more chances for defense as it is now, granting that every auto and motor

cycle has a loud, shrieking, soul rack ing horn, than would be the case if they did not possess them, because if the horns are loud enough to infuse a little agitation in the soul, if the auto ever runs into a pedestrian, he's certainly going to remember whether or not the driver blew the horn, and the opportunity will never present itself to enable the injured one to say "Why didn't you blow your horn." Therefore we ought to be thankful the automobiles have horns, because the town surely needs something to stir up these quiet citizens who are so easily shocked at the mere passing ot a thing so small as a "Gabriel," "Klaxson," "Nightingale" or "Bluo Ribbon" horn. However the agitation furnishes good reading matter for the newspapers. AN AUTOIST. HAIR 0F1HE HANDS Being Experimented With by M. Bertiilon to Assist the Police. SYSTEM NOT YET PERFECT (American News Service.) Paris, July 20. M. Bertiilon, of finger print fame, is exhibiting in Brussels, a sort of map of the hair of the human head, giving . all shades of color. There are several hundred different colors of hair, M. Bertiilon declares and all that is necessary is a proper classification. To say a man has fair hair is ridiculous. He has fair hair which may belong to any category from No. 1 to several hundreds. M. Bertiilon is hard at work now graduating the various shades of hair but' he ; has already reached a point at which his graduated tables can be of immense service in identifying criminals. They will used, of course side by side with the "spoken portrait," in which ears and other features are split up in divisioins. M. Bertiilon has sent his hair tables out to his police colleagues as they have asked for them, but he says his method is still far from perfect. He is a man whose work is never finished, because he never believes in his own perfection. He is at work, too, now, on a table for the Identification of hair which has been dyed. Dyed hair is never the same color as the hair it tried to imitate says M. Bertiilon and criminals who dye their hair are easier to identify than others if proper care be taken. But the colors are quite aesily distinguishable. Another curious piece of work on which M. Bertiilon has been engaged for years Is a man of Europe, graduating all the colors of the hair of people in the different countries. According to the Metal Industry, the following receipt for a nonshrinking alloy use in duplicating patterns gives good results. Tin, 50 pounds; zinc, 50 pounds. This gives a tough hard metal that runs well if a good grade of zinc is used. The addition of two pounds of bismuth will render it even more fluid and enables it to be poured at a lower temperature. By using heavy spruce and pouring cold, the shrinkage, which is slight, may be largely overcome. Since 1905 only two cases of yellow fever have originated on the Isthmus of Panama, and each was cared for without spreading the infection. Using Culebra Island for suspects from infected ports and a strict quarantine has been the method by which cases from other ports have been kept out. MASONIC CALENDAR.

SOUTH IS MAGNET FOR FARMERS NOW

Northwest Country Is to Witness a Heavy Migration This Fall. FINE LANDS NEAR GULF INDUSTRIAL AUTHORITIES AT WASHINGTON WATCHING 'THE OPERATIONS OF THE IMMIGRATION AGENTS. Washington, D. C, July 25- A returning tide of Americans and immigrants from Canada and indications of an enormous movement of people from the Northwest, including western Canada, to the southeastern states next fall and winter, are attracting the close attention of immigration and industrial authorities. The bureau of immigration officials is now awaiting an early report from Commissioner Clerk at Montreal, before discussing the impending influx. Industrial experts say the movement to the southeastern states will, begin next October. A record breaking migration in this direction occurred last year, drawing upon the population of the central states, especially Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska. Many of these people went to southern Georgia and Florida and southern Alabama. Bought Canadian Lands. From Iowa, Nebraska and Oklaho ma many people left for Calgary, Al berta and other parts of Canada, where they bought lands at from $5 to $8 an acre. These farmers averaged $1,000 .mon ey or implements. The Canadian gov ernment reported that there were nu merous Americans taking up their lands. Those who took up the home steads in Canada of course, had to declare their citizenship intentions, but many bought the lands outright. Representatives of a number of colonizing companies have been investigating available large tracts in various parts of the Gulf states during the past few months. A recent report to the land and industrial department of the Southern railway showed that since last May about 50,000 acres of land in , southern Alabama had either been purchased or was about to be obtained for northwestern firms and corporations" for locating settlers. Large tracts also have been taken in southern Georgia and northern Florida since the first of the year to be divided into farms for Northern settlers. Many lllirioisians Buying. Another movement is that of a colony of Slovaks from western Pennsylvania to southern Alabama. In northeast Georgia there has been started the nucleus of a colony from' northwest Canada. Individual farmers from Ohio, Indiana and Illinois are buying improved as well as wild lands in Virginia, the Carolinas, Tennessee and northern Alabama. Germans and Mennonite settlers are seeking homes in districts in the more northern portions of the southeast section of the country. The Initiation of a campaign of education as to the character and low prices of really good Southern lands, as compared with land in the newer portions of the country and the big yields of wheat, corn and other crops, and corresponding profits reported in many Southern districts, have led to the vSouthward migration. Decade'a Work Brings Results. The associations of growers In the orchard and truck districts have called attention to the possibilities in fruit and general garden truck culture. The work the Southern railways have carrying on for a decade past is beginning to bear results and their reports indicate that many thousands of families from the North will settle in the South during next fall and winter. In certain parts of Mexico the natives hang the nests of a large species of spider in their houses to entrap flies and other small insects. MOTHER CRAY'S SWEET POWDERS FOR CHILDREN. Warssa.

Spurns His Native Country . ' " " . . But is Fond of Its Money

(American News Service.). New York. July 26.- Apropos ot the decision of Mr. Clews to make his home permanently In France, the friends of Mrs. Harris Phelps, who was a Miss Pell, were much interested this week to learn of her institution of a divorce against her husband under the French law. Phelps is one of those picturesque characters, who conceived it a misfortune to have been born in the United States. - Since his marriage, his wife says, he has ab jured everything American except her money, upon which she avers he has lived exclusively ever since. He has become a French subject, like Frank Gould, and a horde of other rich parvenus, and to emphasize his keen dislike of everything Yankee refuses to speak in the English language, insisting upon conducting his conversations in French. Although a lawyer by profession, Mrs. Phelps says he has declined to practice and lives a life of esthetic ease upon her patrimony. By taking their baby son away from her, a right the French law. gave him, she TO 8E OPEN HOUSE An open house to employes of the Starr Piano Company will be held tomorrow evening at the Y. M. C.

says he forced her to aign a document whereby he was given one-half of her substantial income and acquired the right to control the other naif. As a result of this arrangement, which the wife claims waa effected without a full realisation ot what she was doing: when she signed the papers in question, she has been forced for years to practice the most - rigid , economy. What humiliates the wife more than any other incident connected with her marttal troubles, however. Is the tact, that her husband in becoming a citizen of France made her eon one also

under the French law. As she desires him to enter the American diplomatic service when he gets older, she' realizes that this will debar him until she takes steps to correct what she describes as her husband's folly.
