AIIII0YAI1CES CAUSED HOWE'SJETIREMEIIT Famous Editor Says Business Cares Made Him Old Man at Age of 57.
SEEKING RECREATION
Not in Usual Way, but by Editing Small Farm Paper for City People.
Atchison, Kai., Jan. 6. Although K. W. Howe retired as editor and publisher or the Atchison (llobc last Saturday, he did not make hi "final tatcmenf or why he quit and what ho Intends to do until in yesterday's Issue, In which he said: "I am only carrying out the idea I have had several years, 1 had too much to do, considering my age (which Is 57 , and overwork gave me nervous dyspepsia, with which I have been lothered a good muny years. "I built the bungalow at Potato I fill rami several years ago with the view or retiring there and publishing; a small magazine, doing the work myeir, ror I have worked so long and so steadily i do not believe I can ever be Idle I know I could not loaf. Retiree Without Bitterness "I retire without bitterness. I hate no one In Atchison and I love the town. Pooplo almost universally have treated me well as I have tried to treat them. If I have wronged anyone 1 intend to look them tip and fix it. "I have no resentment no enmities. Hut I have a good many friends whose appreciation I will long try to deserve. I want to get away from what Is generally known as 'business cares, which have becomo burdensome to me because I am fifty-seven years old. 1 know that as loti as I remained In active business I ought to do my work with good naturo and patience. This was becoming more difficult every year, because of the annoyances around a nawspaper office. I was the old man, most of the annoyances came to mo nnd they wore me out. Hit Lat Dey on the Street. "For thirty-three years I have lettered up and down Commercial street doing what I could as reporter and advertising man on tho Globe. Lato last Saturday afternoon I realized that I was making my last trip, and as the realization came over I had one of the sensations that are rare In life. However, aa long as I am permitted to print Smith's Quarterly at Potato Hill I always shall remember that last trip tip and down Commercial street when I said cood-hv to the navements and
stores and the people with whom I had been associated so long.
t"I do not expect much from the small magazine I Intend to print at Po
tato Hill. It will be a 'farmers' magazine for the town people.' So far as
1 know, there Is not In the world a
magaxino printed on a farm by a farmer ror town peopio. My magazine will not be much of a magazine. If I should conclude to Issue Smith's Quarterly In
thrco monthly installments It would be a small affair like the Philistine.
but not of tho Philistine's character,
This' means that It will not bo as good
as the Philistine nor patterned after
it. But did It ever occur to you that
there Is not a great deal of reading
matter in tho Philistine? I have sup-
piled as much copy for the Globe In
one day as the Philistine's last nura
ber contained. I will bet that in a week at the farmer's print shop at Po
tato Hill I can write, set and print a
niagaslne like the Philistine. Will Print Only the Truth
"I have no deslro to print anything In Smith Quarterly that la not true, Important, decent and respectable. For many years I have believed that the greatest trouble with the world Is that the people are not fair enough, not Industrious enough, not temperate enough, and their lack of these simple virtues causes most of the trouble In the world. "I am too old a man to become an Iconoclast and too big a coward to give leople occasion to shoot me. I simply desire to print my honest convictions. There are a few people In the world who believe hiy "notions' are important. Perhaps a few will care to see these opinions more carefully written. Intende to Sleto a Good Deal. "I shall be comfortable at Potato Hlil. I have a modern house there with a bed rdora 24x19 feet, light and air on three sides, a private bath, two closets and a fireplace. I mention this bedroom because I Intend to sleep a good deal, and from the windows of my room may be seen the finest viewIn the west tho Missouri river valley for many a mile. My brother's oldest daughter Is my housekeeper and pleases me, as she lets me alone. "I am not rich but probably have enough to keep me even If Smith's

Better you liko Tnem. Doan's Kidney Pills never fail you. Richmond people know this. Read this Richmond case. Read how Doan's stood the test. For many years. It's local testimony and can be in
vestigated:
Dallas Cassel. 711 S. Eighth St.,
Richmond, Ind., says: "About flrteen years ago I suffered from kidney trou
ble,, brought on by heavy lifting. 1
was very wea and subject to dizzy headaches and I thought I would nev
er be well again. Hearing of Doan's
Kidney Pills, I procured a supply at
A. G. Luken & Co.'s Drug Store and soon after beginning their use, I felt like a different man. In July, 1906, I publicly recommended Doan's Kidney
Pills and I can only add at this time
that I have had no further need of a kidney remedy."

Quarterly proves an expense, which
is probable, though the expense cannot be great. I am a practical printer. I can not only set type but I can make up forms and set ads and run a press
and make rollers or glue and molasses.
ir at any time Smith's Quarterly does not suit me I shall suspend it and return the money to my handful of subscribers. "Some day I may attempt to 'come back' as Jim Jeffries did. It is extremely probable that I shall often send contributions to the Globe to be refused or accepted as the new editors seo lit. I have a great Interest in the paper. After I am rested I may "sub for koi lie of them, for I can do unything down there except run a linotype, and I have a notion to induce Harry West cot t to teach mo that. Now Not Time to Subscribe "I am retiring to a farm because I
am ambitious to have no more to do
than a farmer. My present intention is to Issue Smith's Quarterly, John Smith, X. B., editor, monthly at first. When I become older and lazier I shall Issue it once in three months. Price 10 cents per copy. But now is not the time to subscribe, because I shall not Issue the first number until
April 1. "There are two schools of philosophy. One -declares that when a busy man retires he mourns and shrivels up and dies In a few months, he is so sorry he has nothing to do. Tho other school of philosophy declares that after reaching the prime of life, or as soon as possible thereafter, a man should retire and refuse to become money mad. I have forgotten the exact language of this school of philosophers, but the Idea expressed is that a man should give his soul a chance and not worship the dollar. 1 don't know which school Is right, and, not knowing which good advice to take, I have acted on my own judgment."
BULL PUP SOLVES MYSTERIOUS CASE Inquisitive Canine Discovers that "Woman in Black" Was Colored Man.
It is believed a bull pup has solved the mystery of the "Woman In Black" which greatly excited West Richmond recently. As a result of the investigation of said bull pup it is believed he discovered the mysterious creature was black, but not a woman. After the inquisitive canine had conducted his Inquiry he returned with a valuable clue a small collection of wearing apparel firmly fastened to the teeth of his upper and lower jaws.
A night or two ago the wife of awell known resident of South West Second street, stepped from the back door. With a scream she rushed back into the house, for leaning against the grape arbor, and peering into the kitchen window, was a tall, heavily veiled figure. The husband rushed into the yard, followed by his bull pup hungry and combative. With a growl the dog dashed after the running figure. A moment later there was a sound of ripping garments and growls scrambled in with loud masculine protests. Soon the bull pup came trotting back, wagging his tail. He laid at his master's feet a large piece of black cloth and a shirt tail remnant. The man had, however made good his escape. The owner of the Inquisitive dog also has another one, and he states that both have seemed to be slightly uneasy for some time, restlessly walking up and down in the house, and occasionallyDarking sharply during the night. Recently the strange negro caught a newsboy on South West Second street, and demanded to know where a certain person lived. The boy did not recognize the name.. The boy promptly yelled. Giving him a vicious shake the negro fled, just as several men approached, in answer to the cry. They were in time to see the fugitive go over the fence and disappear through the fields. While returning home a well known young woman of that neighborhood was followed two squares by the negro but she was not molested in any way. It is claimed in case the man continues his actions much longer the men In the .neighborhood will form a posse and run him down.
