Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN. A. NYE.

A ILEAL JEAN VAL JEAN. 1 Eight years ago a young man call him Jones was sent to the penitentiary for killing a man In a Colorado mining- camp. It is said Jones did the killing in self defense. However that may be, he became a model prisoner and at the end of the eight years was paroled, the terms being that he should not leave the confines of the state. Jones got a job on a farm. ' Tho farmer knew the ex-convict's history and took advantage of it, working the man unmercifully. Jones found life outside the prison harder than It had been on the inside and after eighteen months rebelled and quit. He tried to get a new job. Remember Jean Tal Jean? ' Jones discovered, as did Victor Hugo's hero, that it is difficult for an ex-convict to get a Job. Finally he determined to quit being an ex-convict. He violated his parole, assumed another name and went to Montana, where be took up a homestead. Inside of two years Jones, who had prospered, became a leading citizen of bis settlement. He courted the daughter Of a neighboring farmer, and to her be told his full story. The girl promptly accepted him. Enter Javert. Remember how that astute officer of the .law hounded Jean Val Jean? A detective who had been searching for Jones since he had violated his parole recognized him. Luckily, however, he permitted the latter to return to Colorado without publicity. Jones told his story to Warden Tynan, who Investigated and found it to be true. What Impressed the warden more than all else was that Jones bad told the truth to the girl he wanted to marry. WellTynan, who figures In this real story as did M MyrleL the good bishop of D. in Hugo's masterpiece, got the parole board together. They listened to Tynan and got out a permanent parole for Jones, permitting him to live wherever he might choose. The sequel? 1 The sequel is as fine as any in the old fashioned story books. Jones has gone back to Montana and was married Aug. 1 to the farmer's daughter. It is predicted be will become almost as highly honored In his new home as was M. Madeline, the mayor. And the moral? He who runs may read.

To the County Chairmen of the Socialist, Democrat and Republican Parties of Wayne County, Respectively: The present campaign is the. most Important one since before the Civil war. All sides should be able to present their arguments to the voters. Inasmuch as your parties have no dally organ in this city, and the time before election is too short for either of you to successfully establish a newspaper, I am going to offer you the use of the Palladium on the following terms: Starting with October first each party will be entitled to one-third of a double column space daily In the Palladium, which will include the space for headings. , Each party's county committee will appoint a man or a committee who will be responsible for maintaining the party argument in the allotted space each day. All articles must be so written that due attention is paid to the libel lay and must be submitted to the news editor the day previous to publication. As far as possible the articles in double column style will be confined to the editorial page of this paper. All articles so published must bear the name of the man or committee responsible for their publication. The Palladium will support the Progressive party thus assuring that all four of the leading parties will be represented. I feel that this is a fair proposition to all the political parties concerned. Each is enabled by acceptance of this proposition to reach with their respective arguments the 7,300 subscribers of the Palladium. I will appreciate an early response on the part of the respective county chairmen addressed above, to my proposition in order to arrange definitely for carrying it out. r. g. LEEDS. -

THROW OUT THE LINE

Miles and Roosevelt.

Lieutenant General Kelson A. Miles, retired, has broken into print, something to do for a retired officer, with his own copyrighted reasons why Roosevelt should not be elected president There are many fat well fed and gouty officers in the United States army, both on the active and retired lists, who have no love for the colonel. When the colonel was president he saw countless portly men of the sword holding down swivel chairs in the war office or lounging about hotels and clubs, apparently with only two aims in life, to draw their salaries and increase their averdupois. Having been a soldier the colonel realized that these staff officers were not in condition for active service should they be called upon to take command of troops in the field, and he then issued his famous order requiring every officer on the active list to take a one hundred mile horseback ride a year. He reasoned that if these soldier men were not in condition to perform such a soldierly duty they were not in condition to remain on the active list. The gouty grunts and howls that greeted this order shook the Washington monument. It was no hardship for the bronzed, athletic officers of the field service, but it was a body blow to the beefy bureaucrats. There were a number who knew it was useless for them to attempt to swing themselves on the back of a charger and with angry protests went on the retired list. Some, it is reported, attempted the gruelling test and fell from their saddles with loud and resounding thuds, jarring the immediate neighborhood. It was not a long time after the order had been issued until the retired, list had been enlarged considerably and young and ambitious officers had received deserved promotions. Incidentally the efficiency of the army was considerably improved. If we are not mistaken, the one hundred mile riding test order has not been inforced since William Howard Taft has been commander-in-chief of the army.

Give the Kidneys Help and Many People Will Be Happier. "Throw Out the Life Line" Weak kidneys need help. They'er often overworked don't get the poison filtered out of the blood. Will you help them? Doan's Kidney Pills have brought benefit to thousands of kidney sufferers. Read this case. Mrs. Sarah Hamilton, 226 N. Eighth St., Richmond, Ind., says: "I think there is nothing equal to Doan's Kidney Pills for kidney complaint. For

several years I was subject to rheumatic pains in my back and shoulders.

I also had headaches and nothing helped me until I took Doan's Kidney Pills. They made nie feel like a different person. I am just as willing to endorse this remedy as I was some years ago when I first used it." For sale by all dealers. Pries &0 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N.

ARMS OF THE MEDICI.

The Gilded Globes That Mark the Pawnbroker's Shop. Few persons seeing the signs of tfcc vast wealth of our avuncular relative in most thoroughfares in London pause to consider their origin. Of course It Is the balls of gold to which we refer. Not only may they be taken as indications of wealth, but as a sign that pledges are received. But the balls do not indicate what they really are. They are the arms of the Medici family. Whoever has visited Florence will recall the three balls alternated with the red lilies. But how comes It that the decorations of the Tuscan palace have found their way to Tendon and elsewhere? The explanation la not difficult If give the subject a moment's thought The first gold changers to settle In London, as In Paris, were the Florentine or Lombards. They chose Lombard street as the place where they would carry on their business. These early settlers are perpetuated today by the bankers. In the early days the inhabitants counted among their number some of the Medici family, and to inspire confidence they exhibited their family arms, to which they had a perfect right. The family of Medici is extinct today, but their arms survive them, the present users thinking the respectability of the origin too great to be dispensed with. London Globe.

RAFTS OF GNAT EGGS, Their Floating Illustrates a Curious Property of Water. Many simple experiments show that the surface of water possesses a property which causes It to resist the passage of bodies either from above or below. This is true not only of soupy water, but of the cleanest and purest water as we!L A sheet of fine gauxe tends to float because, its weight being widely distributed, each of the numerous separate wires is resisted by the surface film so that the water caunot readily pass through the mestiea. Insects and plants utilize this fact In many Interesting ways. Sora water plants whose leaves Coat ou the water have a very simple con trlvauce to keep the upjer surfaces of the leaves dry. This consists of a great number of minute hairs covering the tops of the leaves. Water cannot penetrate among these hairs evu

when the leaves are forced down I- j neath the surface. ! The little rafts of eggs that gnats j set affoat on the water are -kept from j sinking and from beiug upset through ; this same principle. The tiny egg J have their points all upward, and they i are glued together so closely that. I while there is ojmii space all around the point of each egg. yet the width of ; these spaces is so slight that water , cannot readily pass through. You may I again ami again upset such an egg j raft, but It will right itself every time, j and the upper surface will remain dry. j

The Wayne county commissiom T3 entertain the laudable ambition of having Wayne county free of debt by 1916, the first time in its history. As a part of this plan the budget for next year has been kept down to the minimum by the county council. It Is a relief to the taxpayers to witness the government of one part of the community in which they live being managed on an economical basis. ' State examiners have thoroughly investigated, in great part, the financial affairs of Wayne county and have found them in a robust condition. Now if the officials of the city government can devise some method whereby the city can lift its debt or part of it within the next half century they should at least be crowned with wreaths of laurel. The splendid condition of the county's financial affairs results from economical and systematic management and careful supervision for a number of years. Richmond's purse Is as bare as Mother Hubbard's Cupboard because of careless managament for the most part. As an example the state examiners have discovered that the special street improvement fund is shy by some ?24,000, which was paid into the general fund. The street bonds are now falling due but there is not enough in the special street improvement fund, created since the administration of City Controller McMahan, to meet this indebtedness. Another example Is the short-sighted policy of not paying the Municipal Light p. lant for the current used in street illumination. This debt has now reached such large proportions that it will severely embarrass the city if it ever attempts to liquidate it, which is doubtful, as mayor Zimmerman recently stated the city could not meet the obligation but would begin paying the plant for street lighting the first of next year. The obsolete street system in Richmond has also been an expensive burden to the taxpayers. If the money spent in the last ten years on macadam and gravel roads was on band now the city could permanently improve with brick pavements at least one-fourth of the streets in Richmond. Something must be done to straighten out the financial tangles of the Richmond city government and there is no time like the present for undertaking such a task. If a reasonable increase in the tax rate, to remain stationary a brief period of years, is required let the city council take such action.

On Baing Calm. One of the finest things within reach of the average individual is calmness It is also profitable. Calmness Is the twin sister of comfort The man or woman who has formed the habit of calmness is apt to be comfortable when others are uncomfortable. Nor is it such a difficult matter to make this habit feel enough at borne to become a member of the family! For calmness is about ninety per cent freedom from fear. As a rule, the person who Is not calm Is afraid of something or somebody. Afraid of self, perhaps. And that is the most disconcerting sort of fear. The way to be cnlm is to bo calm. When the winds of adversity or disappointment or discouragement are seeking to ruffle your mental seas, keep remembering that there is no

such a thing as comfortable passage with the wares beating high. So. keep calm. Philadelphia North American.
