The Monday washing Is a small tragedy when performed by the oldfashioned method of "rub, rub, rub, boil a while, and then rub. Science, by the production of a pure, clean, white laundry soap has evolved a much easier way soaking the clothes with the help of Hewitt 'a Easy Task soap. This Is much Quicker, lota easier and costs no more than the poor, old-fash-toned kinds. Vive cents at your grocers.
Yates on Lorimer
Mr. Richard Yates, former governor of Illinois, was an Interesting if not Important witness before the senate committee on privileges and elections. He revealed bow blithely and innocently he had observed legislative activity when he was governor. Mr. George W. Hinman, editor of the Chicago Inter-Ocean and a friend and adviser of Mr. Yates, "understood that there had been a corruption fund in every legislature,' tut such a possibility had been mentioned to Mr. Yates but once specifically, and then he fluttered with Impulsive desires to have every legislator summoned to an Inquiry. Reluctantly he allowed himself to be convinced that there was no proof. He further illustrated the happy innocence with which he administered affairs of state by relating the circumstances of the alleged attempt to bribe the then speaker, John Henry Miller. A conference was called to consider what should be done after Miller had told his story and Mr. Lorimer "wandered In." Mr. Yates did not know whether some one had asked him in or whether he had just "happened to wander in." It was a habit Mr. Lorimer had that of "wandering in." He "wandered" into the street car controversy, of which this was a part, to such an extent that the late Edwin B. Smith was given material for a most Interesting narrative of how Lorimer sat In control of the governor and the legislative organization working against the city. "Mr. Lorimer wandered in." It was a habit of Mr. Lorimer. Mr. Yates picture of him is innocent and gay. Mr. Lorimer wandered in. He also wandered in when the legislature undertook to elect a senator in 1909. Mr. Lorimer never has been interested in anything, but it always has been his luck to "wander in." Further, It was Mr. Yates' happy interpretation of his own emotions that when he ran against Senator Cullom he was "not bitter" against Mr. Lorimer. "Not bitter, I do not think." No, not bitter merely showing the scars on his devoted body which he bore as testimonial of his long service. of a man who had deserted him, but not bitter. Mr. Yates was not an important witness, but he was interesting. ChicagotTrlbune.

WHAT OTHERS SAY THE SUMMER FOOL. From the New York Times. The summer sun has hardly begun to scorch yet, but already lessons of exceptional worth have begun to be taught to the summer fool. There is nothing very novel -about the misbehavior of the half grown hobbledehoys who think it manliness to be ill bred In the street cars, or who perhaps offend merely from exuberance of youth. The strong arm men are gathering them in, and they are being shut up for some days, as well as be ing fined some dollars in other cases. This is well, but not half so soothing as the discipline of the man who rocks the boat when there are weaker persons aboard. When one of his type stepped ashore Sunday a man half his i weight "gave him his" on the point of his jaw and he went backward into the wet, whence he was extricated with a boat hook. He was rash enough to make a complaint against his teacher of manners and discretion, and the justice who heard what his grievance was threatened to send him to jail. In the opinion of the justice, "any man who will rock a boat with women on board, needs a lesson." GRADUATION. From the Columbus Journal. It would be well if every one of these thousand graduates would ask himself or herself, say in ten days from now, How does graduation affect me? Does it give me an impulse to move forward or a satisfaction to stand still? Education grows or decays which is it doing? By that time the youth wil be able to tell whether he is a spirit or a clod. It is an alternative that confronts every boy and girl when they step from the commencement platform. These ideas suggest a little self communion, a little introspection to discover what one is to amount to in the world. Here is the place to decide. It is the soul's issue. THE DAY OF BREVITY. From the Omaha Bee. This is the day of brevity. People demand action, simple and direct. He who meets this demand is likely best to succeed. It is a demand common to most every phase of American life, notably 6o in business. The little mottoes. on the wall of a busy man's office admonitory of the value of time bespeak that. The shortened workday proves it. The employer and employe are one on the proposition. THE HOSPITAL. From the Cleveland Leader. Of all the institutions of civilization none should appeal more strongly for the support of the present practical minded generation than the hospital. MORE EFFECTIVE. From the Detroit Free Press'. According to a Pittsburg paper, blue paint will keep away the flies. A solid swat with a swatter is more permanent, however. During the last year the New South Wales Government Savings bank made a profit of $135,000, as agflains $40,000' in the previous year.

PRESENTMENT TRUE Man Rushed to Philadelphia to Find Son Dead.
Philadelphia, Pa., June 24. Moved by an overwhelming impulse to return to the city which he had left only two hours before, and filled with a presentment that he was needed at home, Charles Elmer Smith, secretary and superintendent of the Master Builders' exchange, returned to find his only son dead. At almost the exact moment when the overpowering desire to return came over him, according to Mr. Smith, his son breathed his last in the Medieo-Chirurgical hospital. Ross Smith was 23 years old, and lived with his parents at US North 19th street. When his father left to go to the family summer residence at Riverton, N. J., young Smith was in excellent health and spirits. The father took the 4 p. m. train for Riverton and the son went to keep an engagement with a Walnut street dentist It was when on his way home from this appointment that he was suddenly stricken ill and collapsed at 15th and Market streets. The patrol of the 19th district was summoned and a quick run made to the hospital. On the way the young man revived and insisted on walking to the hospital. Fifteen minutes after he was dead, and the doctors are unable as yet to determine theexact cause of his death. The father, meanwhile, had reached his summer home, but could not get away from the impression that something was wrong at home. He even

telephoned twice during the afternoon to see if his son had returned. Finally he could stand it no longer and hurried to Philadelphia by the first train he could catch, to be met with the news that his son was no more. Mr. Smith had expected his whole family, including the dead son, to join him at Riverton in the morning. Young Smith was associated with his father in busines.
SEEKS DAMAGES FOR A MAD DOG'S BITE Lafayette. Indiana, June 24. The mad dog epidemic which raged in this city several months ago resulted in a lawsuit, the first of the kind in the history of the city, being filed by the father of one of the victims against the owner of the mad dog. Benjamin Howitz is the plaintiff and Henry Bruns, a saloon keeper, is the defendant. Little Helen Howitz. the three-year-old daughter of the plaintiff, was attacked by Bruns' dog and bitten in the face. The dog was killed, and was found to be suffering from rabies. The child received the Pasteur treatment, and, according to the plaintiff, the treatment has left her In a serious condition. The father asks $2,000 damages. CAME LONG WAY Pat. J. McGrath. who was fined $1 and costs in police court Friday, told the officials that he had an argument with his wife at their home in Cincinnati last evening and that he left the house and got drunk. He says the last thing he remembers was walking around Fountain Square at Cincinnati. How he got here he does not know. ir3 Phone 1365
