TRUE WOMEN. I would rather be In the shade of a tree With a song- and a handful of daisies Than to be the darling of victory Mid the bray of the rabble's praises. The quotation is by Mme. Cavalleri, the grand opera singer, who further C said in a receDt interview: "I havo everything that life has to offer. By every rule and standard of the world I should have been happy. But the only happiness I have known has been In anticipation anticipation of the things I expected to bring happiness and did not" When I read that I thought of the wife of our milkman.. Happening to be on her husband's wagon the other morning. In the course of a brief conversation she said: "Ob, John and I and the children have been very happy. We have all been quite well, and we enjoy life." She looked it. Here is Cavalieri, yet young, in the flush of health, wealthy, famous, called by some the most beautiful woman in the world and unhappy. And here is my milkman's wife, also young and good to look at, working hard every day and enjoying few luxuries but happy. Cavalieri well says according to the world's standards she ought to be happy. I wonder has It occurred to her whether the world's standards may be wrong? In other words, can externals give happiness? Now, there may be something wrong within Cavalieri's self that bas caused her unhapplness. What it may be I do not know. I might guess at it But Here is the lesson: Sometimes we who are neither talented nor rich nor beautiful nor famous find ourselves wishing we might be possessed of these things and be supremely happy. It seems we are mistaken. Old Omar discarded all these things to say: A book of verses underneath the bough. A Jus ot wine, a loaf of bread and thou Beside me singing in the wilderness O wUderness were paradise enow I Mayhap Cavalieri's lack is what my milkman's wife surely has love love for John and the children. However that may be The old book speaks a universal law when it declares that a man's life does not consist in the abundance of things that he possesseth. Removes black heads, softens rough skin, cleanses the blood, brightens the eyes, sweetens the whole system. Women swear by it. Nothing helps make a pretty face, handsome smile, as Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea. Try it then you'll know. 35c, Tea of Tabs. A. O. Luken. This Is My 50th Birthday BISHOP CANEVIN. Rt. Rev. J. F. Regis Canevin, head of the Roman Catholic diocese, of Pittsburg, was born in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, June 5, 1853, and received his education at St. Vincent's college at Beatty, Pa. He was ordained to the priesthood In 1879, and his first clerical appointment was as assistant at St. Mary's church, Pittsburg, where he remained two years and until assigned as assistant at the cathedral in 1881. In 18S6 he was given charge of St. Paul's Orphan Asylum, the State Reformatory and the Western Penitentiary of Pennsylvania, together with a mission at Canonsburg. In 1891 he was appointed chancellor of the Pittsburg diocese, and in 1893 was assigned to the pastorate of St. Philip's church, Grafton, where he remained two years. He returned to the cathedral in Pittsburg as pastor in 1S95 and in 1903 he was elevated to the bishopric.

A Question of Wages.

While the water works specification are on the fire it may be a good thing to consider the duplication of the present pipeline from the pumphouse to the city. For years those merchants and manufacturers who are particularly interested in reducing the cost of fire insurance in Richmond have urged the creation of a second pipe line. It has been declared and doubtless with truth that if anything ehould happen to the present main that the city would be at the peril of the flames. No matter what the profits of the water works have been nor what they may be it is obvious that if this extension is made the owners of the stock in the water works will eventually shift this burden off their own shoulders on to the shoulders of the consumers. Whether this will necessitate a higher rate than the one now in force or whether the company can reduce its rates to a lower figure will not alter the situation no board of directors of a company is going to make an extension and do without the return on its money. The question then arises what portion of the expense do those who will profit most from the reduction of fire insurance propose to bear? The largest users of water get the lowest rate. The small consumer pays the highest rate. What is the right proportion? Will or will not an unfair apportionment of this item mean a practical assessment out of the present wages of Richmond employes to pay for an increase in fire protection which will reduce the cost of insurance? We are well aware that the employes of any company which suffered from fire would suffer more terribly than their employers and that fir protection of the fullest is their best interest. At the same time if the water rates are increased will there be a corresponding increase in their wages? This should be justly apportioned and not allowed to become another raid on the already diminishing value of a dollar in the pay envelope.

A Good Begining.

If the citizens of Richmond had been at the meeting of the board of works yesterday afternoon when the draft of the specifications was under consideration they would have been pleased. Of course the final form has not yet been reached nor the specifications nearly completed. But the spirit in which the board of works is approaching the matter is one which calls for commendation. In the first place the meetings are entirely free from secrecy. Second, the tone of the meetings is business-like and Intelligent. Third, the attorneys have wisely taken the attitude that their part in the matter is merely of the legal form and that the matters of public policy are for the citizens to decide upon. Fourth, both the attorneys and the board of works are intent on getting the best bargain for the citizens that is possible, but the spirit was one of complete justice. One paragraph which has not yet reached its final form is that dealing with extensions. If the intent of this paragraph is kept it will add to the growth of this town more than any other one provision. By this paragraph the city undertakes the guarantee of a certain sum of revenue to the company in those parts of town where the lines have not been extended. As fast as the section is developed the city withdraws its support. In other words the risk of the non development of this section is to remain on the city. And since the city takes this risk it becomes unnecessary for the company to make the apparent overcharge now in use by which it receives money both from the city and the property owner. The effect that such a wise provision will have on the building in this town will surprise many people who have hot had1 the sickening task ol trying to get the extensions of a public utility before they built. No man wishes to take the risk of building a house without the necessities of water, gas, electricity, street cars, and telephones yet the present policy of public utilities is to demand the building of sufficient houses before they will extend the service. How this has pnade slums, retarded real estate, raised labor troubles and driven business away frcm cities is not well enough known. , Citizens and especially such experts as real estate men cannot afford to let this paragraph go by without giving the board of works the benefit of their personal experience on this point. The time to do it ii now. Their co-operation will undoubtedly bo appreciated and it will result in a model set of specifications. The city officials who are engaged In this task need have no fear that they will meet with criticism if they continue with their task in the present way.. The public has no right to expect them to appear with a document full born and complete in its development but the citizens who do not co-operate with the city officials when they are acting in such apparent good faith are not real citizens.

One True Medicinal Whiskey Beware of imitations and substitutes unscrupulous dealers tell you are "just as good" as Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey Some dealers may try to convince you that there is something "just as good" as Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey. Pay no attention to their claims, they are imposing on your confidence. Substitutes Are Dangerous It is the well known purity and merit of Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey that has caused the manufacture of inferior and unreliable imitations. It is the natural result of more than half a century's good reputation for purity and well doing behind Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, which has been used by the Medical Profession, Hospitals, Sanitariums and in the home all these years with wonderful results.

Politics and Politicians

Every Republican President since Lincoln, with theexception of Roosevelt, has been a native of Ohio. Mayor Fitzgerald of Boston is already stumping Massachusetts in his campaign to succeed to the seat of United States Senator Crane. The lines are being drawn for a sharp political fight in West Virginia for the seat of United States Senator Clarence Watson, whose term will expire next March. Vermont Democrats will meet in Montpelier on June 18 to name a State ticket and select delegates to the Democratic national convention at Baltimore. Representative Lindbergh, of the Sixth Minnesota district, has announc ed his candidacy for the United States senate, to succeed Senator Knute Nelson. Curtis Guild, Jr., United States am bassador to Russia, is believed to be the first choice of Massachusetts Re publicans to succeed F. Murray Crane in the senate. A. R. Maxwell, Jr., United States ambassador to Russia, is believed to be the first choice of Massachusetts Republicans to succeed W. Murray Crane in the senate. A. R. Maxwell of the Lawton News and Guthrie Star, a personal friend of Colonel Roosevelt, has entered the race for congressman-at-large from Oklahoma. Iowa Prohibitionists will meet in State convention in Cedar Rapids on

William S. Cowherd, for many years a prominent member of the national house of representatives is making a hard fight for the Democratic nomina- j tion for governor of Missouri. The committee in charge of arrange-! ments for the Democratic national con- j vention at Baltimore this month has decided that the only portraits to be included in the convention hall decorations will be those of Washington, Jefferson and Jackson. Henry Allen Cooper, who has represented the First district of Wisconsin in the lower house since J893, is mentioned for second place on the Republican national ticket in the event that Roosevelt is nominated for President. In the opinion of voters political observers the uninstructed delegates will probably determine the result of the Baltimore convention, and the actual Btrength of the several candidates for the presidential nomination will probably not be known until the first bal lot. I The Champ Clark supporters are j talking of Congressman William C. I Redfleld of the Fifth New York district, for Vice President on their ticket. Mr. Redfleld is a resident of Brooklyn and the head of a large manufacturing concern. He is now serving his first term in Congress.

Gardner is a son-in-law of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge. Other possibilities for the chairmanship are Senator Clarence D. Clark of Wyoming, who has occupied a seat in the senate since 1895, and Senator Charles E. Townsend of Michigan. Mr. Townsend served in the house from 1903 to 1911, when he was elected to the senate to succeed Senator Burrows.

A Shrewd Suggestion. They tell a story in New Hampshire about a country squire before whom a man was arraigned for passing a counterfeit half dollar. The prisoner protested his innocence, on the ground that the date of the coin. showed that it could not have been in circulation so many years without being detected If it was counterfeit. The squire thought this a logical defense and discharged the prisoner. After the man bad got out of the state some one suggested that the date might have been counterfeited as well as the coin, and then it was tested and melted In the flame of a candle.
