Which was the comment of a friend of mine respecting a mutual friend recently married. . . I Joined Issue. .1 said: "You are mistaken, I-t'.'nk. My friend's wife Is not a college educated woman, but she is educated. She Is a floe housekeeper, as I happen to know, and she Is a very capable woman In many respects." Education Is more than mere book learning. All true education Is a process of drawing ont of one the best that is In one. Education Is expression of self. Now My friend's wife Is admirably prepared for wifehood and motherhood, education sadly neglected by many well schooled women of our day. And she has, In addition to her good looks and vivacity, health, poise, patience and a sweet disposition. And, moreover, she Is much in lore with her husband and Is determined to make his home a happy one. What would you? But, her critic says, she Is not "brainy." And In that also she is mistaken. Mentally she Is as strong as her clever husband, but along different lines. And I am greatly mistaken if she does not succeed In managing her husband as well as her household. He will not feel the harness, but she will hold the lines Just the same. Brainy? Intellectuality is not confined to a certain sort of culture. As much brain tissue is required for successful home management as for storekeeping or practicing law. The world, indeed, could get along fairly well without lawyers and editors and architects, but could it get along without mothers? Educated? . There are other educated people than those that are college trained. And as between mere mental gifts and intellectuality of the heart the latter is infinitely to be preferred. And so thinks my friend respecting bis fine little wife. Threat. . I consider it a mark of great prudence in a man to abstain from threats or any contemptuous expressions, for neither of these weaken the enemy, but threats make him more cautious nnd the other excites his hatred and a desire to revenge himself.

The Man the Bosses

It was unfortunate that it was not known at least a day ahead that Albert T. Beverldge was to speak here yesterday. Had it been generally known that he was to appear before the sixth district progressive convention the Coliseum could not have held the crowd, which would have been attracted by his presence, but Mr. Beveridge did not know until the convention was in session that his presence here was required owing to the Illness of Mr. Landis, consequently thousands of people did not hear the splendid message he brought to the convention delegates and the few hundred spectators. Mr. Beveridge is a wonderful orator; so is James E. Watson, but Wateon will never be able to match the eloquence of the brilliant leader of the Progressives in Indiana, because Beverldge's eloquence springs from high ideals and lofty purposes. Watson's eloquence is purely mechanical, sold to those interests he serves so well. No one who heard Mr. Beveridge yesterday could doubt for a minute that he was enlisted in the great movement for better government solely because he desired to hold public office. True, he seeks to be governor, but only to be in a position to effect needed reforms in the government of the state and to urge and fight for legislation which will be for the public good. Every crooked interest in the nation Is fighting against the election of Theodore Roosevelt as president (witness the unprecedented spectacle of the Standard Oil coming out in the open to attack him) and every crooked interest in Indiana, and they are a legion, will seek to defeat Beveridge, because they know his election means a man In the executive office who cannot be controlled, and a man who stands for a new deal from the top of the deck. "If anybody does not believe that I will do what I say, every Republican and Democrat lobbyist knows it to be true. And every boss is against us, for they know that if the Progressive party succeeds good laws will go on the Btatute books," said Mr. Beveridge.

It you, Mr. Voter, did not register last spring do not fall to do so Friday of thiB week. It will be your next to the last chance before the November election. Your vote is needed this year by your country, state and family and you cannot afford to waste it by disqualifying yourself by neglecting to register. A weapon has been placed in your hands this year, Mr. Voter, to restore the government to the people, but this weapon will be useless If you forget to qualify yourself as a voter. REMEMBER FRIDAY IS REGISTRATION DAY.

A Profit Sharing Plan. On the first page of the Palladium today is a special dispatch from Boston regarding the sliding scale gas franchise in that city. The article was prepared by a competent newspaper man after a thorough inves.tigatlon on his part. The Palladium has been urging the adoption of the profit sharing feature of the Boston gas franchise into the local water works contract proposal. It has been thoroughly experimented with and found to be satisfactory to the people of Boston and the corporation holding the franchise. Tonight the board of public works, the council and the attorneys for the city wilt hold their final meeting to consider the water contract proposal before the city advertises for b'ds. Probably the articles on the Boston franchise will be of interest to these city officials. If the Boston profit sharing plan Is adopted the Palladium believes It will be much more acceptable than the profit sharing plan now written into the Richmond water contract proposal.

Down With the Rat.

Editor Palladium: You have from time to time been preaching the necessity of killing flies which, is good doctrine to preach. Suppose now you urge the suppression of the rat evil. Did you know that there are certain sections of the city which are overrun by rodents? They are harmful in more ways than one. L. J. K. The rat is the hardiest animal in the world. It is the city animal which has held its own against man, increasing in number each year. But today man is turning his attention to this dangerous little enemy and in many American cities, especially seaports, systematic campaigns are undertaken to eliminate the rodent population. It has long been known that rats are a source of tremendous economic waste, not only In seaboard cities about docks and wharfs, but in every portion of the land. Figures are sometimes given of the amount of this waste, which mounts into the millions, but even these figures are only guesses and probably far short of the truth. Modern efficiency demands that no rats should be tolerated; that this enormous economic waste and danger to health should be prevented by swatting the rat, clubbing him, trapping him, poisoning him exterminating him wherever and whenever he raises his pestiferous head. It should not be left to the health organizations of cities and towns and the nation to do this work, says The Journal of the American Medical Association. The work should be done by the individual property-owner or occupier, who now carelessly, indifferently or Ignorantly Invites the rat to become an unprofitable but most pro-. " lific tenant and guest, paying for his board by subjecting his host to the peril of deadly epidemic diseases. By building the rat out of existence and by waging vigilant continuous warfare against him the public could reduce the rat problem, and consequently the plague problem, to nothingness.

Vermont in Revolt.

When Vermont Republicans desert the old party and its candidate for governor fails to secure the necessary plurality, throwing the election into the legislature for the first time since the Republican party was organized in the Green Mountain state, in 1856, the outlook for Republican success In the national election must be gloomy even to the optimistic Mr. Hilles.

ENLIVENED THE SCENE. But Herb's Improvisation Did Not Help Leander Much. Innumerable are the tales of actors in difficulties. Here is one related of Christian Brandes, the dramatist, who In his youth belonged to a strolling company which played pieces of an extremely primitive kind. On one occasion the play was entitled "Hero and Leander," the dialogue being left pretty much to the discretion of the players. It had been agreed, however, that Hero was to be coy and not confess her love for Leander till he had again and again expressed his readiness to be hanged, burned and drowned in her behalf. But the lady was soft hearted, besides being exceedingly fond of Brandes, nor could she listen unmoved to the first passionate pleadings of the youth, who explained that he had swum across the Hellespont to see her. "My dear Leander," she exclaimed. "I cannot resist you. Accept my hand and my heart." Leander knew not what to say. All his prepared phrases were useless. The manager came to his aid with a loud whisper addressed to Hero, "In the fiend's name, improvise a few words and retire 1" The poor girl, turning to the audience, repeated her lesson. "In the fiend's name, I improvise a few words and retire." and then tripped oft the stage, greatly relieved. London Graphic Tna Natural Result. "Pop, when you sow wild oats what crop do you get?" .

ANIMAL EVOLUTION. Changes In the Partridges of tha Canary Islands. A remarkable example of the effects of environment and changed conditions of life upon the forms of animals Is furnished by a species of partridge living in the Canary islands. Over 400 years ago the Spaniards in troduced the red legged partridge from Europe into these islands, and the bird has continued to flourish there; but, as recent examination proves, it has undergone modifications clearly brought about by the conditions under which It Uvea. Its back has turned from russet color to gray. This looks like protective coloration, since the bird passes its life among gray volcanic 'rocks. Its beak has become one-fourth longer and thicker than that of its ancestors and of its European relatives, and its legs also have Increased in length and grown stouter. These changes are exactly such, as were needed to suit It to the life that it is now compelled to lead amid the rocks and on the mountain sides of the islands, where a more rigorous physical development is required than was needed In its former home.

CHINESE SMUGGLING TRAFFIC

BY JONATHAN WIN FIELD. WASHINGTON. Sept. 4. An effort is being made through the medium of an amendment tacked by the Senate upon the Hughes bill establishing a commission on industrial relations, to hunt down the individuals who are making a business of smuggling Chinese Into the United States. The Hughes bill which has been made a subject for conference by Congress, in the beginning provided for the appointment of a commission of nine members, at least three of whom shall be employers of labor and three repreeentatives or organized labor, charg ed with investigating conditions surrounding the large industries of the country. Their duties were enumerated ar- being to pay especial attention to the agricultural industry; to existing relations between employers and employes; to devices and systems purporting to safeguard the working men and the methods of adjusting labor disputes and of avoiding labor strikes. When the bill came into the senate the following amendment was attached: "The commission is to inquire into the question of smuggling or other illegal entry of Asiatics into the United States or its insular possessions, and of the methods by which such Asiatics have gained or are gaining each admission, and Bhall report to Congress as speedily as possible, with such recommendation as said commission may j think proper, to prevent such smug gling and illegal entry." That amendment, besides opening up a wide and

interesting line of inquiry about the ; or Polndexter of Washington, called capital that the American Federation . tne attention of the senate to the alof Labor has had much to do with hav-, leged preValence of Cape Verde labor Kg amendment incorporated in , tn m of the Ma98achusetts the bill.

The influx of Chinese labor resulted in the Chinese exclusive r.ct, since which time, there haB been a rate de-' crease, but not an absolute stoppage of the entry of Celestials into the United States. The American Federa- ( tion of labor because of the partial failure of the exclusion act detailed immigration experts to collect data upon this condition of affairs and It is not Bald that these men have large quantities of facts concerning the smuggling o cChinamen across the borders into America. The fact that three of the industrial commission members must be representatives or organized labor lends color to the report that through this memium the labor leaders seek to get their facts and data before congress. As a matter of fact, the business of smuggling Chinese has within the last few years, especially on the Pacific coast, become one recognized for Its

remuneration, by certain sea captains. as well as men ashore, who hold cheaply the laws of the land, and a large business has grown up in the traffic. It is said to be easy to collect five hundred dollars a head for each Chinaman who wishes to obtain entry. From time to time also, there appear in the papers of the country accounts of smuggling expeditions nipped in the bud by watchful immigration inspectors. There is no way of knowing how many of these expeditions succeed. Not many years ago, too, one of the officials of the port of Baltimore was arrested charged with complicity in a plot to get Chinamen into the United States. Rumor credits the smugglers with having used at one time or another, every device to obtain entry for their yellow clients. Most of the time, small schooners are used. But smug gling parties with automobiles as the j method of travel and even an aeroI plane, have been reported. This is the situation which the American Federation is said to have set Itself to combat. This is the system, whose tentacles, it is said, are stretched into every port of entry along the Pacific Coast, and into many on the Atlantic seaboard. Another phase of the importation of foreign labor has been brought to the attention of congress. A month or so ago, during the consideration of the report mode by the Bureau of Labor nn tha l.nrncp Mass Rtrlfcf SnatIU II. This statement brought an immediate reply from the Mayor of Lawrence who ccclared that there were not a score of the Cape Verde negroes in the mills, and that such as were there were employed at the hardest kind of manual labor. The Mayor pointed out, further, that these negroes could not be trained into skillful mill workers, and that no fear ned be entertained t they will ever cut into the industry and take the places of the French and Irish Canadians who now for the most part make up the mill payroll. This instance, as well as that of the amendment providing for an investigation of the smuggling of Celestials, is taken as an indication that before many years have passed the color line will be drawn tight In the labor world, and that American industries for white men will be the slogan. PAPE'S I. ally keeps the stomach regulated and they eat their favorite foods without fear. If your stomach doesn't take care of your liberal limit without rebellion; if your food is a damage instead of a help, remember the quickest, surest, most harmless relief is Pape's Diapepsin hich costs only fifty cents for a large case at drug stores. It's truly wonderful it digests food and sets things straight, so gently and easily that it is astonishing. Please don't go on and on with a weak, disordered stomach; it's so unnecessary.

ANNUAL SALE

High Class Cplts Mares Stdard Bred and Registered Stock

We can not raise and train all we breed; we must sell part of each year's product to make room for the youngsters coming on. This sale will consist of our last year's crop of Rythmic Bel foals, the service fee of which was fifty dollars, and one of the most famous three year olds ever produced. These yearlings are all possessed of extreme speed, which we have not the time to develop, and desire that Wayne County and our neighbors, have an opportunity to secure for the benefit of the future horse industry of this section, no such opportunity as was ever offered to our farmers and horse lovers as this, and perhaps never will be offered again, for if this sale does not prove satisfactory, the product of this farm will seek a market at the horse sales where this class of horses is appreciated. . We hope to see every animal sold to a resident of this County, that the blood may be perpetuated and our breed of harness horses may excel that of any section of the country. We have the stock and no farm in thr world has a better lot of brood mares than Reidston Farm to produce famous horses, and the future champions are just as likely to be among this bunch as tny that ever has been or will be foaled. Reidston produced this year's champion three year old, and will produce more of them in future years, and you are just as likely to buy one out of this lot that will bring you $5,000.00 or more as Baldv McGregor was a year ago now. We will also offer some work stock and some exc?llent young drivers that will show for themselves. Every one sold as registered; certificate will go with purchase. v
