Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright, 1908, by Edwin A.Nye

TtE C0NQUES01L NAN. Thou ahalt have dominion." When the Jewish exile left BabyIon, 600 B. C. to go back to Jerusalem to build the second temple, using oxen mules and camels, they were four months on the road. Little dreamed they of the day of railroads or of electricity. Nowadays man travels on the earth and under the earth; Oh the water and under the water and through the air. Wonderful conquests. But Man's greatest conquests are oyer the animal life of the world. Long ago he conquered the big elephants and the wild horse. And now science la breeding and using Insect life to destroy man's most pestiferous enemies. For instance: Since it has been discovered that the mosquito Is one of the most dangerous of the microbe carrying Insects war has been declared. The agricultural department la breeding the "darning needle" insect with which to destroy the predatory mosquito. "Swat the fly!" Is a national slogan. We are just beginning to discover what the fly does to us. And so our government is breeding a certain species of wasp that is able to sting the household fly and destroy that disease bringing pest. And then there are the good microbes. One sort of bacteria Is being cultivated that Is used to enrich the soil and thus help the husbandman. Another kind of microbe is being employed In antiseptic tanks to purify dty sewage. Great tanks filled with these little scavengers, invisible to the naked eye, make way with the refuse that la drained Into the receptacle. Man la having dominion. He Is using the good insects and microbes to destroy the bad doing indirectly what he is unable to do directly. Te be able to go from Chicago to New York In eighteen hours la a great feat, but a thousand times more Important is that sort of dominion that frees man from the dangers of contagion and disease and prolongs human Ufa.

8ome day man shall have conquered the animal pests as he hss conquered the beasts of the wild. Man waa made to have dominion.

More Than Courtesy.

The Youngster's Wonder. The conversation had turned on Jugglers and their tricks, and each of the Company did his best to outdo the others In reminiscences of the wonderful feats he had seen performed. A child who had been listening attentively said, "Well. I know of some men who are much cleverer than Jugglers, and they don't perform in theaters either." "To whom do you refer, my dear? "Why, to the bakers, of course. I never could make out how they get all the crumbs in a loaf of bread." Ideas.

This Is My 68th Birthday

WILLIAM H. KENDAL. William 11. Kendal, the noted English actor, was born in London, Dec. 1. 1843. Ills stage career commenced at Glasgow in 1862. lie remained in Glasgow several years, supporting Charles Kean and other noted actors Of that day. In 1S66 Mr. Kendal made his first appearance in London. Three years later he was married to Miss Madge Robertson, a weir known actress, and during the greater part of the time since their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Kendal have appeared togeher. Among the many plays in which they have been seen are "The Squire," "The Queen's Shilling,' "The Ironmaster," "A Scrap of Paper," and "As You like It-" In 1887 and again in 1889 Mr. and Mrs. Kendal toured the United States and Canada, and were very successful

The other day there was a discussion in a farm house a few miles from Richmond in which the subject of coming to town to sell butter and eggs arose. One of the neighbors was in and had just announced that he no longer disposed of his butter and eggs and other produce himself. He said the profit was knocked off by several items of expense. The chief of these expenses were the cost or putting up at livery barns, the value of his day away from the farm, and his own expense in buying a meal in Richmond. It was far cheaper for him, he said, to dispose of his produce at a reduced cost to a buyer rather than to come in town himself.

We should be the last ones in the world to place the cost of high produce in any one place. We should not place it in even a dozen classifications. Modern life is so complicated that the cost of living is automatically increased. John Stuart Mill is credited with the statement that the problems of production have been solved to all intents and purposes. It is the cost of distribution which is troubling both consumer and producer.

Viewed in a somewhat larger aspect the fact that farmers have not a place in which to hitch may have quite a larger viewpoint than the one which we mentioned at the first of this article. It is apparent that the more that Richmond becomes a trading center the cheaper these commodities will become. It is no unusual fact to state that the largest purchaser buys at the least cost. And whatever any one may think of it and the harm or good that this condition brings about it is certain that the better price that any merchant can buy his goods at enables him to sell at just such a bettor price. If Richmond merchants then are assured of a constant demand they will buy larger stocks of their commodities and can therefore sell at a less cost. In addition to this it is the dull season and the stimulated seasons coming unexpectedly which cause riot and inefficiency in all human experiences. The same phenomena which is seen in the electric light business in which a "load" must always be carried but in which the demand is only for the night is quite the same in the farming business in which winter corresponds to the dead season in the light business and this has its corresponding situation in the mercantile business. Anything which tends to equalize the trade is better than a sudden inrush followed by a period of inactivity. The farmer recognizes this when he makes his dust mulch to retain the moisture during the corn season. He would rather have his rainfall distributed throughout the season than to have it crowded in at one time. So the conclusion is that anything which tends to restrict trade and make it fall not when the purchaser wishes the article but say when an accumulation of articles makes it necessary for a farmer to come to town is neither efficient nor economical for the buyer or the seller.

BREAKS UP A COLD AND CURES GRIPPE You can surely end Grippe and break up the most severe cold either in head, chest, back, stomach or limbs by taking a dose of Pape's Cold Compound every two hours until three consecutive doses are taken. It promptly relieves the most miserable headache, dullness, head and nose stuffed up, feverishness, sneezing, sore throat, mucous catarrhal discharges, running of the nose, soreness, stiffness and rheumatic twinges. Take this harmless Compound as directed, without interference with your usual duties and with the knowledge that there is no other medicine made anywhere else in the world which will

icure your cold or end Grippe misery as

promptly and without any other assistance or bad after-effects as a 25cent package of Pape's Cold Compound which any druggist in the world can supply. Pape's Cold Compound is the result of three years research at a cost of more than fifty thousand dollars, and contains no quinine, which we have conclusively demonstrated is noe effective in the treatment of colds or grippe.

If the condition of the roads surrounding Richmond is such that farmers do not care to come in to buy or sell it is easy to see that this will have a great effect n the trade of the town in raising prices to those within and without. If to this is added an Incentive for making one trip every month do what should have been done every week or every other day, it might be very hard to point this out in the specific instance but surely it would count up large in the general total of business done and the prices maintained.

In those communities where roads are tied up all winter collections are very poor until the crops have been moved and the intimate relation between collections and selling price is now to well known to need comment.

In spit of the fact that the country people are coming to town more and more and in spite of the fact Uiat they are coming frequently the facilities -which Richmond offers are becoming less and less for the handling of this very real problem. If it were simply a matter of courtesy it seems to us that it were the more courteous thing to provide adequate places for farmers to hitch and feed and a place nearby where people could keep warm in winter and cool on summer days. We should criticize the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern traction company or the Pennsylvania railroad if it provided as poor waiting facilities for the public as Richmond provides. The fact that something of this sort has never been attempted here or any place else that we know about is all the more reason why it should be done. The question of precedent does not enter into it. A public comfort station has been too long delayed in Richmond and the dividends would be enormous in comparison with the small cost of such an institution.

News Forecast For Coming Week

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16 The near approach of Christmas will see the customary lull in political and public affairs. Little real work is expected of Congress, which will adjourn at the end of the week for the holiday recess. President Taft will take advantage of the slowing down of the official machinery by running over to Brooklyn to deliver an address before the

Young Republican club of that city Tuesday night. Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul will celebrate the golden jubilee of his ordination to the priesthood on Thursday, and It is expected the anniversary will be made the occasion for a signal manifestation of the love and esteem In which the venerable prelate is held by Americans of all creeds and classes. A notable wedding of the week will be that of Miss Edith Pulitzer, daughter of the late Joseph Pulitzer, and

William S. Moore. The wedding will take place Thursday at the Pulitzer home in New York city, and it will be a very quiet affair on account of the recent death of the bride's father. Unless the governor of Illinois grans a respite there will be a quadruple hanging in Chicago, Friday, the first that has taken place in that city since the execution of the Haymarket anarchists. The prospective victims of the gallows are the four young men convicted of the murder last October of a truck farmer. Of interest in naval circles will be the presentation on Monday of a magnificant silver service to the battleship Florida. The service is one of the finest ever presented to an American warship. Funds for its purchase were raised by popular subscription, aided by a generous appropriation fr,om the state of Florida. The presentation will take place at Pensa-cola.

A FAMOUS DWARF. Borulwaski, the Pole, Was Handsome, Scholarly and Witty. A notable dwarf, who had a long lease of life over parts of two centuries he was born in 1739 and died in 1S37 was Borulwaski, the Fole, of whose debut an interesting tale Is told. As a boy of fifteen, when he was just one inch higher than a two foot rule, Borulwaski was presented to the Empress Maria Theresa, who was so charmed by his good looks and grace that she seated him on her lap and gave him a hearty kiss. To the queen's question as to what he considered the most interesting sight in Vienna the dwarf replied, "What I now behold, so little a man on the lap of so great a lady." This speech rendered the little fellow a great favorite. He became a special favorite of Stanislaus II., who took him to England and introduced him to George HI., and for more than half a century Borulwaski made his home at the English court. This dwarf, who at his tallest was a yard and three Inches, had a sister whose head just reached her big brother's shoulders. Borulwaski was not only a handsome and courtly man, but a scholar of repute. He lived in five reigns, and when be died, lacking only two years of reaching the century mark, he was laid to rest in Dunham, side by side with the Falstaffian Stephen Kemble.

A Dark Smoke. Funny thing about smoking! If a man were compelled to puff a good cigar with his eyes shut the operation would lose its zest. A man who bad undergone a slight operation upon one of his eyes had to stay in a darkened room for a week with his optics bandaged. After a few days his doctor told him he could take a gentle smoke if he liked. He jumped at the chance and to his amazement found it afforded not the slightest pleasure. To be sure, men often smoke in the dark, but there's always the rosy glow of the lighted end to be seen and the faint outline of the cloud of smoke in the air. There's no more fun in a sightless smoke than a saltless egg or a kiss implanted upon your own hand. What's the psychology of It. New York Press.

COMMERCIAL CLUB FAVORS PHONE CO, Service Greatly Improved and Public Has No Room for Complaint.

The following is the report made by the public service committee of the Richmond Commercial club on the telephone service in this city: To the Officers and Members of the Richmond Commercial Club: Your committee on public service coroprations desires to report that some time ago an invitation was received from the president of the Richmond Home Telephone company .inviting a committee from the Commercial club to visit the telephone exchange so as to acquaint themselves somewhat with the details, general operation, and also the troubles incident to the telephone business. In acceptance of this invitation your president appointed the public service corporations committee to make this visit which was done December 4th. Upon this visit the committee accompanied by the president and secretary of the club were received by the officials of the telephone company, who made reports of the building up and improvement which they had made within the last three years; also a statement as to the great expense incurred and a comparison of the rates charged in Richmond lor telephone service in other cities, and explained fully the various troubles that have been due to men leaving this system for work in Chicago, a strike, and several storms which damaged the plant. They assured the committee that they were making every effort possible to perfect the system so as to give our Richmond people service which would be commendable. They also courteously showed the committee through the system and explained in considerable details the various workings of some of the sensitive machinery of which the plant is composed. Your committee feels it only fair and just that we should report that the general service of the Home telephone company has been greatly improved over what it was some months ago, and believe that if the present service is kept up that the people of Richmond will have no occasion to complain. We are confident that the officials of the company are endeavoring to make the service as satisfactory as possible. Respectfully submitted, Henry Gennett, E. F. Hiatt, Wm. Dudley Foujke, H. C. Hasemeler, W. K. Bradbury.

How Indiana Combats Dreaded White Plague

Many persons in Indiana afflicted with tuberculosis are benefiting now by former sales of Red Cross Christmas seals, according to James W. Lilly, treasurer of tbc Indiana Commission, which is conducting the sale this year. Mr Lilly, who was treasurer of the Indiana Branch of the Red Cross which conducted the campaign last year, says the funds raised in former years arc bring used daily to fight tuberculosis in ail parts of Indiana. People in the first stages of the disease, as well as those considered incurable, who are financially unable to obain care and treatment are being benefited by this money. The money has been spent to build and equip open air camps, to pay for the treatment of cases in the Rookwood Sanitarium and other institutions, to aid worthy organizations in their fight against the disease and to maintain an educational exhibit at the Indiana State Fair. It is the purpose of the Indiana Branch of the Red Cross to build and equip open air "shacks" for consumptive patients in cities where funds are raised to maintain them. In South Bend, Terre Haute, Yincennes, Indianapolis and Evansville such places have been constructed by the funds of the Red Cross Society. Between $60 and $70 is being spent weekly to treat poor patients suffer

ing with the disease. Besides these channels of aiding in combating tuberculosis, some of the money raised by the seals sale has been paid to organize which are working against

! tuberculosis. Organizations maintain

ing hospitals for incurables and those employing visiting nurses have also been aided by this fund. Because of the increase in deaths from tuberculosis last year members of tho Red Cross Christmas Seals Commission say that it will be necessary to sell 1,500,000 seals this year to make au effective fight against the disease next year. Accordingly they are revoting all their energies to tho campaign, inasmuch as the money raised this year remains in the state.
