Many people can't stand warm weather. It upsets their stomachs; they can't eat or sleep; not exactly sick, but out of sorts; feel mean. All you need is Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea; sweetens the stomach; cools the system; makes you eat and sleep. Best summer remedy. A. G. Luken.
Swelled the Account. The well known Paris theater manager Dollgny relates In his reminiscences an encounter he had with the elder Dumas which furnishes an illustration of the novelist's wiliness. Dollgny produced Dumas' drama, "Kean," with the rather peculiar stipulation that the author should receive onethird of the gross receipts when these exceeded S.OOO francs and nothing at all If they fell below that figure. Dumas, who was always hard up, came late one evening to get his share. "Luck is against you again." said the manager. "You don't get anything tonight. Here is the account." Dumas glanced at it and went away. In a few minutes he came back and eald: - "Just look over the account again and then pay me 1,000 francs. The ticket that I Just bought for 3 francs brings the total up to 3,000 francs and SO centimes."
Described the Situation. "When the Russian emigrants try to say Halifax it sounds like something much worse," said an ottlcer on board a steamship that puts in at the port of Halifax on her return trip from Holland. "They call It Hellofflx. On our last trip home we were not far from Halifax when the vessel broke a shaft, and we were obliged to put In at a port that was nearer to us for repairs. It was a bad break and likely to delay us. and the captain's temper was considerably ruffled. As we steamed Into the little port some of the emigrants, thinking we had reached Halifax, spread the news among their fellows, and one of them who had learned a little English came running to the captain: - 'We in a Helloflx?' be inquired eagerly. "That's Just what we are:' roared the captain." New York Press.
Spoiled tha Bird's Flight. During a campaign meeting a speaker, noted for his eloquent discourses, was expounding the praises of bis favorite candidate for mayor. "This man," he shouted, "is the one who can most fittingly govern this haven for the oppressed, with its countless myriads of happy homes, their verdant lawns and flowers scintillating In the sunlight." With outstretched arms and gazing fervently upward, he exclaimed in a passionate voice: "If I had the pinions of a bird 1 would fly to every ward and precinct in this wonderful city and disseminate the glad tidings that" Then a voice from the back of the room piped out: -You'd be shot for a goose before you had flown a mile." Kansas City Jon""1-
In all this uproar where is William Howard Taft? He has not been heard from. No message has been issued from the White House unless it Is a secret order given over his private wire with Hilles, the Taft secret agent at the other end. We assume that William Howard Taft knows what is going on. We do not ask the question as to whether this is his idea of government by the people. Wre all know that it is. For four years he has stood for Boss Rule and he has been its servant. During the preferential primaries when Mr. Taft appeared at the rear of a train in Richmond, Indiana, a fatigued, smileless, broken man, we all felt sorry for him and treated him with the deference due his office. There were two-thirds of that crowd who were Roosevelt men. A great many were delegates to the convention as Roosevelt men, yet today if Mr. Taft were to come to Richmond he would meet a different reception the crowd would be still more silent so still that one might hear a hiss. And if the President maintains his quietude amid the theft that is going on in his name he is likely to hear many.
Real Warnings.
Two things should be warnings to the National Committee. 1. The fact that the people of West Virginia and Pennsylvania are going into the campaign with the Republican electors for Roosevelt. 2. The fact that the California delegates of the Republican party declare for the creation of a third party (in reality a progressive Republican party) if any more knavery is attempted. These things are not mere threats. They will not only happen but they will spread. We shall not be surprised in those states which have just seen the bosses tumbled out of power in the preference primaries to see the name of Theodore Roosevelt go on the ticket as the regular Republican candidate. It is certain that he will be so regarded in those states in which the votes for the Republican party are produced. If this is done, does not it seem more than likely that Theodore Roosevelt can be voted for in Indiana? If the Roosevelt sentiment was strong at the time it was necessary to steal this state for Taft through the instrumentality of Joe Kealing and the Kealing-Shank-Indianapolis News policemen what is it today? We repeat, these things should be a warning to our Republican Na tional Committee. What will be the effect later in the campaign when these already discredited men are retired? When the Roosevelt men are in power on the National Committee does anyone think that they are going to be recreant to their instructions at the primaries and support Taft or any other reactionary? The time to quit with good grace is now. They have no backing in their own states where there either is no Republican party (as in the Southern states) or a sickened electorate which has already defeated them (as in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Kansas, Etc.) Iu the words of Theodore Roosevelt it is the National Committee who are bolting.
Inefficency.
There Is a street in Richmond on which there has laid for several weeks a quantity of crushed rock. The street superintendent says that he will not roll it. The oil contractor does not want to put oil on it until it has been rolled. Expert opinion has it that the rock should be rolled and packed into the surface of the street. Housewife opinion has it that the street should be oiled so as not to wear out the life of the women in the neighborhood in dusting three times a day and housecleaning once a week. Isn't this somewhat inefficient? , Incidentally this situation ia not "uncommon. There is a motto of mongrel origin which begins "Do not start anything you can't finish." There Is another one "Do it now." May we recommend this to the consideration of the department of streets? (Incidentally the cost of the rolling has been voluntarily offered to the city but the street department does not take kindly to this plan.)
News A bout Boys. All the small boys on one square in Richmond have blossomed forth in khaki cowboy suits. These are complete even to the holster in which there is a minature revolver, even to the bandana around their necks, and the lariat, with the proper knot in the end. This is not all. These boys have been sleeping in a tent in one of the back yards. They have a good time and there is no trouble getting them up in the morning. Also they have no trouble sleeping at night and they use plenty of cover these nights when other people are going to bed with palm leaf fans. This all reminds us of a new section of real estate that is rapidly being built up in a suburb of Baltimore. The first .building to go up was a club house for Boy Scouts. The thing was complete swimming pool, library, gymnasium, built like an armory. The real estate was sold In short order. The boys of today are mighty good looking specimens. For city youngsters these fellows have a good color and plenty of muscle. Also, for whatever reason, we have noticed quite a lot of boys at council meetings in the city building paying very close attention and knowing precisely what is going on. They do better than their parents in that regard. It is no longer the fashion to raise weak but pretty children and the tide seems to be turning away from boys and girls who are not capable.
How Horace Walpole Dressed. In the early part of the eighteenth century, says the author of "Social England," a fashionable gentleman ordinarily wore a toupee of curls raised high over his forehead. For daily wear most gentlemen were dressed like George I., dark tie, wig, plain coat, waictcoat and breeches of snuff colored cloth and stockings of the same color; for ceremony, like Horace Walpole, in a lavender suit, the waistcoat embroidered with a little silver or of white silk embroidered in the tambour frame, partridge silk stockings, gold buckles, ruffles, lace frill and powdered wig. The linen for shirts was bought in Holland, costing from 10 to 14 shillings the English ell.
Light Lures the Fish. Fishermen of Cezimbo, Portugal, have a novel method of catching fish by the use of a natural phosphorescent substance. This Is obtained from a fish known as Malacocephalus laevis and is a thick yellowish fluid which possesses a bluish phorphorescence in the dark, believed to be due to the presence of a luminous microbe. The fishermen rub this substance upon a muscular tissue, such as a piece of cuttlefish, and this is used as bait. The light appears to last for a long time, at least for several hours, and has a brighter glow when dipped in the sea. Fish are attracted to the bait by the light and are thus caught.

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A.NY&
WAIT FOR THE CUE. A young St, Louis girl wrote a brief note, closed her windows and turned on the gas. The note read: I am sick and tired and out of money. There is no hope. Ooodby! Poor lassie! She thought self destruction was the door of escape from her troubles. But was it? If you should be miserable in Illinois would it make you happy merely by moving over into Indiana? Death is only a change of venue. "Which way I turn is hell," said Milton's Satan. "Myself am helL" That's it You carry your misery in yourself. The mere shifting of the scene will not suffice. What a pity some one could not have said to the poor child "Now, my dear, you may be badly off, but thousands are in a worse state than you. Many have passed through your agony of mind and are happy now. "The clouds will brighten. Walt "If you are hungry there are places like the Salvation Army or the Associated Charities, where they will feed you until you can look around. Nay, they will put a roof over your head until such time you can find fresh courage. "If you are sick there are free dispensaries and clinics and hospitals, which you may employ without loss of your self respect. You are Just worn of body and faint of spirit. Take a breath or two and make a new start. Do nothing rash. "Wait a bit Rest." But, alas, the girl was alone, driven to bay, desperate I In her stress of hopelessness it seemed good to destroy her young body In order to ease her mind. And pity 'tis she is only one of thousands such. "Suicide is confession." It is as if an actor, unwilling to wait for the promptor's word, should rush from behind the scenes and plunge Into the limelight of the stage and shout bis lines to the amazement of the auditors. How explain his presence there? And what must be his confusion and embarrassment? Would he not be hissed from the stage? How much better to wait until the caller gives the cue for the part before going on! Is it not time enough to go when one is called, trembling and hesitant, to ay one's lines?

Boiled Alive. In English statutes of the sixteenth century the punishment set down for the crime of murdering by poison was boiling alive, and a girl was actually executed in that ghastly fashion. In 1538 Father Stone of Canterbury suffered the same death. A curious account is in existence which gives the amount paid "for two men who set the kettle and parboiled him" and "to the women that scoured the kettle." The sentence was not always carried out with so much ferocity, for culprits were sometimes hanged before being boiled, in 'one case it is recorded that a man was first hanged, then boiled and then quartered. .

Xatlonal Xews Association) CHARLESTON. W. Ve June 14. The West Virginia delegates to the Republican national convention, who will depart from here tomorrow for Chicago, will carry with them a boom for Governor William E. Glasscock for the vice presidential nomination in the event that Theodore Roosevelt is named to head the ticket. The friends of Governor Glasscock believe he 1b entitled to second place on the ticket from the fact that be is "the original Roosevelt man." On January 18, last, almost two months before the headgear of the famous Rough Rider was tossed into the squared circle. Governor Glasscock issued a public statement in which he declared that a careful canvass of the political situation in West Virginia had convinced him that the people of the state were overwhelmingly for Colonel Roosevelt for the Republican presidential nomination. Furthermore, it is pointed out, the Governor of West Virginia is the only one of the seven governors who prevailed on Roosevelt to be a candidate, who carried his state solid in the contest for delegates.
Whan Tea Was Medioine. Before tea became cheap enough to be considered a drink it was largely used as a medicine. A familiar advertisement in the London Tatler used to proclaim a "famous cbymical quintessence of Bobea tea and cocoanuts together, wherein the volatile salt, oil and spirit of both" formed "the highest restorative that either food or phys ic affords."
Prices In the Tenth Century. Money values in the tenth century were very low. according to our Ideas, but as the purchasing power of money then equalled from eight to twenty times what tt Is today one must not hasten a comparison, writes Charles W. Hall in the National Magazine. In Athelstane's time a horse was worth 120 shillings, an ox 30 pence, a cow 20 pence, a sheep 5 pac. a hog S pence, a slave -0 shillings, making a slave worth eight oxen, and these prices, except in times of famine, appear to have changed little under the Norman. In 1156 wheat sold at IS pence the quarter of eight bushels, and In 1243 it brought only 24 pence, but in 1024 seed wheat sold at 3 shillings a bushel, barley at 2 shillings and oats at 1 shilling per bushel.
Gladstone's Signs. Gladstone was the Inventor of the abbreviation for million which is much used in England. Since "m" wss already reserved for a thousand he made a million sign out of it by curling the tall of the "m" over the body of the letter and once declared that posterity might be more grateful to him for this than for bis political work. He was much addicted to labor saving devices and was proud of his system of recording responses to invitations. When an Invitation was sent the name was marked in his list with a minus sign. In case of acceptance another stroke made it a plus sign, while refusal was marked with a sign of equality. A circle about a plus slgi showed that an acceptance bad been recalled.
