Association of American Advertisers No. I9- .Whitehall Mil. . T. City Two Meetings. Saturday, two political meetings were held In this city. A comparison of the aims and purposes of those gatherings furnishes food for thought. At the court house the members of the Wayne County Republican Central Committee met. They filed into the court room silently, and then their chairman arose and in grave, quiet tones, announced he had determined to sever his connection with a party which had lost its ideals and 'principles and which no longer truly represented the people. After tendering his resignation he left the room. Then arose the secretary and read the resignations of twenty odd members of the committee, and his own. Following this simple but impressive act the secretary and retiring members silently filed from the room a mute but powerful protest against party domination by corrupt politicians and tariff barons. As the door closed behind the last retiring committeeman the handful who remained, hopelessly and without ambition for the task left to their hands, began discussion of ways and means to recruit the party's depleted ranks and the best stimulant to employ in keeping up the heart action of the expiring O. O. P. elephant. The Moses they chose to lead and advise them with forced confidence remarked, "It has never been a disgrace to be a Republican, and it is not now." If his followers really believed this to be the truth, they gave no evidence of it. In a room in the Masonic temple at the same time the last sad rites were being performed over a dead political organization at the court house, there wag a political love feast in Progress. In that room sat men filled with en thusiasm over the cause of the every day man and woman a cause which bears the title of Progressive party and these men, representing the vari ous wards and townships of the coun ty, were zealously and Joyfully discussing final plans of organization, when and where mass meetings of citizens throughout the county would be held for the purpose of electing members of a campaign committee And the final pleasing spectacle this meeting presented was the absence of professional politicians. The men present were just ordinary farmers, business men, professional men, clerks and mechanics, enlisted "for the war" ' in the cause of good government The meeting at the court house marked the passing of the old political regime in Wayne county. The meeting at the Masonic Temple was the birth of a new political era. Clouds in the Skies. The Democratic political barometer has begun to drop. On the horizon storm clouds have begun to appear, and the crew of the Jacksonian ship of state are anxiously watching their new skipper, Woodrow Wilson, to see if he proves himself a master mariner. The first rumble followed Wilson's address of acceptance at Seagirt. This speech in which the candidate bent a tissue paper sword over the evils which menace the republic, failed to strike a responsive chord in the minds of the bulk of the voters, but was greeted with shouts of joy in Wall street and with loud acclaim by that part of the New York press which recently enthusiastically deserted Taft for the Democratic nominee. Another slump in the Wilsonian barometer is marked by the defection of William Randolph Hearst and his string of influential newspapers. For a time it appeared that Hearst, who was greatly peovod over the defeat of

Champ Clark, would concur in the sentiment picturesquely expressed by

Marse" Henry Watterson, that "he would vote for Wilson but not drink with him," but now the army of Hearst cartoonists has been "sicced on" the New Jersey professor and in the current issue of the Cosmopolitan Magazine, a Hearst publication, Alfred Henry Lewis flays William Jennings Bryan, political godfather of Governor Wilson. In the "solid" South the resentment of the Underwood followers is smouldering. Truly it looks like choppy seas ahead for Skipper Wilson and the good ship Democracy. In the meantime, the New York Daily Mail, the solitary New York organ of the Progressive party, is doubling its circulation and the Lloyds are beginning to offer odds on the election of Col. Roosevelt. After flattering ourselves that we have killed about half the microbe population by a fly massacre, we are informed by learned scientists that death in the form of germs lurks in the mouthpiece of a telephone. Drop the swatstick and grab the bottle of disenfectant. The unfortunate victim who will receive the Republican congressional nomination Tuesday at Connersville, will be between the devil and the deep sea, if the Wayne County Democrats harken to the advice of some prominent Republicans and place a county ticket in the field. The blow that broke the Ohio O. O. P. elephant's back, came Saturday at Columbus, when eight of the nineteen members of the Ohio Republican state committee withdrew from the organization when Gen. Robert B. Brown was selected to make the race for governor in place of Judge Dillon, who recently resigned. The selection of a standpat Taft machine boss was ! too big a pill for them to swallow. As a result of the cdmmlttee split a Progressive state and national ticket will be placed in the field. PHYSICAL STRAINS. Men Over Forty-five Should Take No Exoessive Exercise, The physical decay of men over forty must be more frequently mentioned lest we forget the fact that our physique was evolved for only thirty five or forty years of strenuous use. says American Medicine. It was not so long ago that forty-five was ex treme old age counting time In the large way of evolution. Lengthening of life has been possible only because civilization has let up the physical strains, so if we continue them we must expect to break as of old. Athletes stop their efforts merely because they are beaten by younger men, but the nonathletic seem to think that it is necessary to keep up excessive exercise, though the tissues simply cannot stand it. There is, then, no mystery in the large number -of damaged hearts now being found, and they will continue to Increase in number and severity until the medical profession succeeds in Impressing the lesson. Let us repeat It over and over again until every ssan over forty or fortyfive realizes that he has lived bis allotted time of physical vigor and must ease up the strains to retain bis health. There Is no reason except abuse why so many men break at fifty-five or sixty. They should be healthy until seventy or seventy-five, and it Is our duty to show bow. Musteal 8eunds and Noise. It Is a curious fact that musical sounds fly farther and are heard at a greater distance than those which are more loud and noisy. If we go on the outside of a town during a fair at the distance of a mile we hear the musical instruments, but the din of the multitude, which Is so overpowering in the place, can scarcely be beard, the noise dying on the spot. To those who are conversant with tho power of musical instruments the following observations will be understood: The violins made at Cremona about the year 1600 are superior in tone to any of a later date, age seeming to dispossess them of their noisy qualities and leaving nothing but the pure tone. If a modern violin Is played by the side of one of those Instruments it will appear much the louder of the two, but on receding a hundred paces when compared with the Cremona it will scarcely be beard. London Globe. The Nebular Hypothesis. The nebular hypothesis is the name generally given to the theory put forth by the celebrated Laplace in "Systeme du Monde" in the year 1798. His idea was that the solar system was evolved mechanically from a vast diffused revolving nebula, and that nebulae were the early stages in the formation of planets and their satellites by cooling, condensation and contraction, according to certain laws of mathematics. This theory was accepted by Sir William Herschel and. though at first bitterly opposed In many quarters, is now generally accepted by astronomers and scholars and is taught in most schools and colleges.

GOVERNORS WILSON AND MARSHALL.

THE STATE PRESS NEWS IS IN LINE. Another old-time Republican newspaper of the Sixth district has renounced Taft and declared that it will support Roosevelt for president. The Connersville News, the only Republican paper in Fayette county, made editorial announcement Friday of the course it intends to pursue. It took a big, long editorial to jump from the Republican party to the Progressive fold, but Editor Tatman accomplished the feat and landed squarely with the Bull Moosers, right side up. Of the seven forjner daily Republican newspapers in "this district three of them are supporting Roosevelt, three stand for Taft and the seventh is a Roosevelt sympathizer but don't want to leave the party. The straddling paper is the Shelbyville Republican edited by Walter Montgomery, and he has the sympathy of the newspaper fraternity in his uncomfortable predicament. New Castle Times. PROGRESSIVE VETERANS. Veterans of the Civil war, men who, in the late fifties and the sixties left the standpat parties and joined the new party then forming to do the work the people wished t ohave done, do not find it difficult at this time to part from the standpat element of 1912. These old men were independent in their glorious youth. They not only voted on conviction and severed old party ties because of their beliefs, but they fought the most terrific war of history to uphold the principles that based the new Republican party of the sixties.. The Republican party organization has come to be merely the agency for putting through schemes of bossestn behalf of selfish interests. Is it strange that the independent Civil war veteran, the Fremonter and the Lincoln voter are prompt and ready to act, even as they were in an earlier day? These men have not changed. It is the Republican party organization that has changed. These old men still have deep-seated convictions of right and wrong. They are still independent. They would go forward, "firm in the right." They looked up to Lincoln when he led them. They still hold fast to Lincoln's doctrines. They are Lincoln men still, hating bosses, abhorring trickery, protesting against crookedness, revolting against theft in politics and standing against oppression in all its forms. Muncie Star. BE VE RIDGE A NATIONAL ASSET. Before the progressive national convention recedes to the extent that ia minor significances are forgotten, it is worth while to consider the standing of Indiana's favorite son, Beveridge, before the representatives of every state in the Union. Next to Roosevelt himself there was no man before the national progressive convention more acclaimed than Beveridge. Indeed, delegates from other states seemed to regard Beveridge not so much as of Indiana as of the nation. Men from Texas. Oregon. Maine and New York seemed to regard Beveridge with quite as much proprietary interest as did the men of Beveridge's own state. One Kentucky delegate was heard arguing for Beveridge, as the vice presidential candidate of the progressives, and his good natured contention was that Indiana had stolen a national asset and that Hoosiers should forthwith give him back. Lafayette Courier. A German educator has been making a statistical study of the relation between heredity and school marks, and from 354 cases in which he 'was able to get full school records, through three generations, he concludes that the connection is very close.

M el - 0' MOLDED HIS DEATH TOLL. Legend of "the Poor Sinner's Bell" That Was Cast In Breslau. The poor sinner's bell is a bell In the city of Breslau. in the province of Silesia. Prussia, and hangs in the tower of one of the city churches. It was cast July 17. 1330. according to historic records. It is said tbat a great bell founder of the place had undertaken to make the finest church bell he bad ever made. When the metal was melted the founder withdrew for a few moments, leaving a boy to watch the furnace and enjoining bim not to meddle with the catch that held the molten metal, but the boy disobeyed the caution, and when be saw the metal flowing into the mold he called the founder. The latter rushed in and, seeing, as he thought. hl9 work of weeks undone and his masterpiece ruined, struck the boy a blow that caused his immediate death. When the metal cooled and the mold was opened the bell was found to be not only perfect, but of marvelous sweetness of tone. The founder gave himself up to the authorities, was tried and condemned to death. On the day of bis execution the bell was rung to call people to attend church and offer a prayer for the unhappy man's soul, and from that it obtained the name of "the poor sin ner's bell." SEEING A PURPLE COW. Perfectly Natural Under Certain Conditions, Says an Artist. H. Anthony Dyer, painter of water colors, was explaining the matter to some possible buyers of his wares. "Suppose while you are in the country in summer," said be, "you chance upon a Hotstein cow grazing on a hillside. Holsteins. of course you know, are black and white. The pasture is green. Off at one side is a gray nnpainted barn. Do you stagger with surprise when you notice that that cow is purple? Not a bit of it. If it were not purple you might reasonably consult an oculist. Tbat would be a sign that your eyes needed attention. "But you may never have tried to figure t Jt why the cow is purple. Here Is the answer: The complementary color of the green posture is red. The sight of green always suggests red. although we don't realize it. Flooding the scene is the yellow sunshine. The yellow, the red and the green combine to tint the grazing neutral colored cow purple, and purple it undeniably is, as you must admit when next you encounter one under such circumstances. Nevermore, therefore, may you sing with Gelett Burgess: I never saw a purple cow. X never hope to see one. New York Press. The Bug Bible. The bug Bible was printed in 1M9 by the authority of Edward VL, and its curiosity lies In the rendering ot the fifth verse of the Ninety-first Psalm, which, as we know. runs. "Thou 6halt not be afraid for the terror by night nor for the arrow which fiieth by day." but ln the above version It ran. "So thou sbalt not nede to be afraid of any bugges by night." Ludicrous as this sounds. It -4s not etymologic ally without Justification. "Bug" is derived from the Welsh word "bwg," which meant a hobgoblin or terrifying specter, a signification traceable in the word commonly in use today "bugbear" and Shakespeare once or twice uses the word in this primary sense, nottbly when he makes Hamlet say, "Such bugs and goblins in my LifeIf You Have Money. "That fellow Gotrox is a multimillionaire. He has more money than brains." "Well, what does he want with brains?" New York Times.

The good listener speaks only when be has something to say. The talker chatters whether he says anything or not. The clever listener Is deservedly popular. Most people take it as a compliment that you should give heed to them. Moreover, the good listener gets a reputation for wisdom. He is reserved in his expression and every one thinks, "If he should express himself how wise he must be." as it may see, the careful listener often is esteemed to be a good conversationalist. The volu ble talker is so appreciative of the deference paid him that he goes away Baying, "It is really enjoyable to con verse with Mr. So and So." Listen and learn. When some one says something you do not quite understand just keep still and listen. Sooner or later the fluent speaker is apt to explain himself, and you will lose nothing and perhaps gain a friend. Because Your talker is likely to talk himself into an admiration of himself as a successful talker and, filling himself up with admiration, what runs over is spent in admiration of his appreciative auditor.
