LINCOLN'S RETORT,

Caurtlo Answer to an Opponent at a . Political Meeting. Herndon, his law partner, tells the story of .Lincoln's encounter with one Mr. Forquer, who had suddenly changed from the Whig to the Democratic faith and had been rewarded with a fat political office. Forquer had thereupon built himself an elaborate home in Springfield and over it had erected a lightning rod, the only one in the place and the first one Lincoln Jbad . ever seen. Once at a political meeting Forquer set himself to "take down" the presumptuous young man of elongated stature and ready tongue. "His reply to Forquer," says Herndon's informant, "was characterized by great dignity and force. I shall never foget the conclusion of that speech. " The gentleman has seen fit to allude to my being a young man, but he forgets that I am older in years than I am In tricks and trades of politicians. 1 desire to live, and I desire place and distinction, but I would rather die now than, like the gentleman, live to see the day that I would change my politics for an office worth' $3,000 a year and then feel compelled to erect a lightning rod to protect a guilty conscience from an offended God.' "New York Post.

BETWEEN TWO VISITS.

The Great Change That Came Over the Poor Little Fat Boy. Sir Francis Cbantrey, the famous

sculptor of Georgian days, whose bequest for the encouragement of art is now famous as the "Chan trey trust," Is the subject of a very pleasing story

told in Lady Chatterton's diary: "Last week I met Sir Francis Chan trey and Luttrell at Rogers' house.

Lady Dufferin. Mrs. Darner, Lord

Lansdowne and Lord Glenelg were

there. After breakfast Cbantrey point

d out a sideboard and said to Rogers: " 'Do yoo remember a poor little fat bey tn a common workman's dress who came one morning many, many years ago to take some order about that sideboard? " 'Yes, I do,' said Rogers, 'for 1 thought what a fine head and intelligent look the poor boy had.' . 'WelL he is the now celebrated sculptor, who not only goes to all the best houses in London, but gives parities that people are so good as to call pleasant,' where all the highest and most intellectual people honor him with their presence. Can you guess who it. is? Well,' Cbantrey added, that cabinetmaker's apprentice was myself.'" , ' A Conscientious Jury. On one occasion a native in Kail, Hawaii, cheated a neighbor out of a small sum of money. The community was Indignant and determined that the guilty party should be punished. The day of the trial came; the testimony was conclusive; the Judge closed his charge, reminding the Jury that "it takes nine to convict," for a threefourths majority was required instead of a unanimous jury. It was thought that the twelve might decide in the box. but the Hawaiian likes form, and they gravely withdrew to the jury room. They were gone an unconscionable time. At length the judge, impatient, sent to find out what in the world was the matter and discovered this predicament: All twelve were for conviction, and no three could be induced to vote for the defendant

One of the most serious problems facing the school board will be to fill the place of Mr. Earhart. The years of work which Mr. Earhart did here have made the problem more complex and not simpler. The chorus work, the establishment of The Richmond Symphony Orchestra are all a part of the school system. It is not likely, nor should it be expected that a man can be found who will step directly into his place and carry on the work. That would be too much to ask. Yet notwithstanding the fact that Mr. Earhart, himself, Is hunting for some dozen or more men as his corps of assistants in Pittsburg it is possible that the many functions which he ailed in Richmond can be filled in such a way that the work can go on. It may be necessary to have one director of music in the schools, another as a chorus leader and a third as director of the orchestra. The value of Earhart's work was that he tried to efface himself so that the movement represented a natural growth among the members of the chorus and the orchestra. It therefore brings the musical movement in Richmond to a place where it must decide whether it will stand on its own legs or testify that the movement depended always on Mr. Earhart to keep it alive. When one remembers the enormous self sacrifice that each individual has performed for the orchestra and the standfast purpose they have shown it is not hard to believe that they need only the slightest encouragement to proceed. The most obvious necessity is a competent orchestra leader who shall spend at least a part of his time in Richmond. But what the public does not know is that many of the most important places in the orchestra are dependent on music as a means of support. When these men give up their time to rehearsal and to concerts they are less able to make a living. The fact is that if some arrangement is not made for these men they will be forced, unwillingly to give up the orchestra work. It is quite as if some business man were called upon to fill the heavy work of say the secretary of the Commercial club or Y. M. C. A., or Earlham College, the fault would not be in the spirit of the men but in the fact that men must make a living. Now that the musical movement in Richmond has become an actual financial beneit to Richmond it is no more than right that the movement should be incorporated and placed on a solid financial basis with the power vested in those associated with the movement to put the money to the best use. It will not take a small fortune to accomplish this. But if on Mr. Earhart's leaving the whole structure should fall, then all this energy and self sacrifice would be gone, the advertising value of the movement gone and a serious doubt cast on the thing which would 'surely be advanced to take its place. This is not a crisis in that this be settled today or tomorrow. But by Fall this must all be definitely gone over by the public. We should like to see a public meeting called by representatives of the school board, the i Commercial Club, the musical organizations to discuss It. It would be most appropriate if Mr. Earhart himself could be present and make his farewell but the continuance of his work in Richmond.

Unfair Taxation in Water Rates. When the board of works takes up the specifications for the water works bid we hope that It will assure itself beyond any shadow of a doubt that upon the establishment of a public service commission in Indiana the rates and service shall be governed by the public utility commission when. established in this state and that this public utility commission shall value the plant on a physical valuation basis to be distinguished from the counting in of the franchise value.

In the meantime me ask the board of works to consider the proposal to give every user of 'water in Richmond the same rate. It is an injustice that The Pennsylvania Ra.lroad should enjoy the lowest rate in Richmond because it presents a greater drain on the water supply than the -individual citizens who are giving the Richmond City Water Works the right to tax the community in return for the privilege of serving it. The Richmond City Water Works has the right to tax the citizens through its rates but the board of works in making out this schedule on which the bidding for water rates is to be based is the body which fixes the tax rate. Is it right that the Board of Works of Richmond, Indiana, shall fix a lower rate for the Pennsylvania Railroad than for a private individual? If it does it will be unjust taxation. By distributing the expenses and proits over the water industry on the budget system each citizen will pay the exact amount of his 6hare for the water used. The company is not and should not be in competition with any other company. It can not be urged that such a proceeding would drive away business. Sn fact it should be easier for the company knowing the cost of the water furnished per gallon over a period of years, the average pumpage over the same period, the probability of the water supply and the average increase in population to figure more definitely on this with the universal use of the water meter than any other way. A minimum charge for the readiness to serve should be introduced for the protection of the company. But citizens should not be taxed for the benefit of any one class of citizens or any one industry.

Women s Secrets

There is one man in the United States who has perhaps heard mere wossen's secrets than any other man or woman in the country. These secrets are not secrets of guik or shame, but the secrets of suffering, aad they have been confided to Dr. R. V. Pierce in the hope and expectation of advice and help. That few of these women have been disappointed in their expectations is proved by the fact that 98 per cent, of all women , treated by Dr. Pierce or his able stsff, have been absolutely and'altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if the cases treated were numbered by hundreds only. But when that record applies to the treatment of more than hslf-a-mil-lion women, in a practice of over 40 years, it is ohenomenal.

How to Keep Face Young and Attractive

(National Hygienic Review) The way to ward off old age Is not to fear it, not to allow one's self to be oppressed by the dread of advancing years. Use only legitimate preventives and avoid trying experiments with preparations not indorsed by physicians. An entirely safe and very effective way to keep the complexion young-looking and beautiful is to apply ordinary mercolized wax at bedtime, using it like cold cream, washing it off in the morning. This gradually absorbs the withered, faded cuticle, which is replaced by the more youthful, plnktinted underskin. One ounce of this wax, to be had at any drug store, is enough to completely rejuvenate a worn-out complexion. Wrinkles and flabbiness of cheek

and chin, the first signs of advancing

age, may be lessened by a simple, harmless preparation made by dissolving an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half pint witch hazel. It is used as a face bath.

Present Day Hats and Styles in Hair Dressing Cause Loss of Hair We Cannot Change the Styles, but We Can Check Falling Hair.

Up to the time we began to civilize him a bald headed Indian was a thing unknown. Wearing nothing on his head except the covering furnished by nature and being a stranger to the use of a hair brush, especially the public one, the scalp and hair had plenty of ventilation, much sunlight and, hence, a condition favorable to a luxuriant growth of hair existed at all times. It was the adoption of air and light excluding head gears and artificial head decorations generally, together with the occasional use of a community hair brush, which gave the dandruff germ its opportunity. Since this parasite has multiplied to an alarming degree until now there is hardly a person who is not troubled more or less with dandruff and falling hair. Many, to be sure, have passed the worrying stage. Having become chronically bald they realize that nothing is capable of producing natural hair for them. Let these be a warning to all who are experiencing the signifi

cant annoyance of dandruff and falling hair. Dandruff, which is due to a germ, and falling hair can both be overcome by the regular use of Newbro's Herpicide.
